Meet Michelle

I believe the most memorable weddings happen when beautiful design and genuine care come together. As a design-led wedding planner, I love transforming ideas into thoughtfully curated celebrations that feel elevated, intentional, and uniquely reflective of each couple's story.

I'm servant-hearted, believing that exceptional planning is rooted in trust, empathy, and unwavering support. My role extends far beyond timelines and logistics — I'm an advocate, guide, problem-solver, and calm presence throughout the planning journey, ensuring every detail is handled so you can be fully present in the moments that matter most.

“Truly can’t say enough about Michelle and Wedding Gates. The thought and effort she put into every detail, all while keeping my mind at ease throughout the entire process. It was like having my very own fairy godmother. Thank you again for letting the best day of our lives come to light!”

“Michelle has helped plan many of my friends’ weddings and did an incredible job, so when it came to finding a planner for our big day, it was an easy choice! I assumed working with a planner had to be ridged and follow a specific structure but Michelle was so flexible. I did a lot of the up front booking and she was able to jump in seamlessly and take over where I left off. She was so helpful in vendor recommendations and did all of our decor set up. On the day of the wedding, she was running everything behind the scenes so I could be completely in the moment. When you work with Michelle, you’re working with a friend. She is genuine and treats your special moments as if they were her own; with care and kindness. Cannot recommend working with her enough. ”

It was truly the wedding of our dreams, and a big part of that is because of you. You truly are amazing. Your organization, your attention to detail and impeccable eye for design make you incredibly talented at what you do. We can’t thank you enough.”
