My story as a wedding & Event planner

Meet Mariella!

Hi, I’m Mariella!

Girl mama. Wife to my high school sweetheart. Professional over-planner. Lover of pretty details, big feelings, good food, and making sure nobody knows there was ever a problem.

I’m the face behind Married by Mariella, and if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I genuinely LOVE a good celebration.

I’ve always been the girl with the clipboard, the backup plan, the emergency kit, and approximately 47 ideas for how to make something even better. Birthday parties? I’m planning. Family gatherings? I’m probably rearranging the table. Weddings? Well… that’s where things got a little .. Amazing!

What started as a love for creating beautiful celebrations turned into a business built around something I care about deeply: PEOPLE

Because your wedding isn’t just another event on my calendar. It’s your people, your story, your weird little traditions, your favorite songs, and all those tiny details that make your relationship yours.

I want your wedding day to feel beautiful, intentional, FUN, and completely you — not like a copy-and-paste Pinterest board.

And while I absolutely love the pretty stuff (give me a gorgeous tablescape and I’m happy), I’m just as obsessed with the behind-the-scenes magic. The timelines. The logistics. The vendor communication. The “OMG WHAT DO WE DO?!” moments.

That’s my favorite part.

You get to enjoy your wedding.

I’ll handle the chaos.

My clients will tell you I’m equal parts planner, hype girl, problem solver, therapist, comedian, and emergency kit — and honestly, I’m okay with that title.

You can usually find me with a coffee in one hand, my phone in the other, a million tabs open, and a mini emergency kit nearby because you never know when someone is going to need fashion tape, bobby pins, scissors, a stain remover pen… or a snack.

At the end of the day, I don’t just want to plan your wedding.

I want to know your story.

I want to know what makes you laugh.

I want to know what matters to you.

And I want to create a celebration that makes you look around and think:

Yep. This is SO us.

So if you’re looking for a planner who will keep you organized, calm your nerves, hype you up, laugh with you, cry with you, and probably fix your dress at some point…

Hi. You found her!

Let’s make some magic.

With love & a little sparkle,

Mariella
