My job is to turn your day into something that feels effortless, personal, and exactly right.
I ask a lot of questions.
a note from staci
That's how we get to the best answers.
I've planned over 400 weddings, and I've learned one thing: the best celebrations start with a clear point of view.
I'll encourage you, challenge you, and tell you the truth - even when it's not what you expected to hear.
(I'll also make you laugh along the way.)

OUR APPROACH
“You bring the spark. We build the world around it.”
Planning a wedding that actually feels personal can get overwhelming fast...especially when every algorithm keeps showing you the same recycled ideas.
At UNIQUE Weddings + Events, we create bold, personality-driven weddings built around atmosphere, guest experience, and emotional impact...not recycled trends or copy-and-paste celebrations. From Tampa to St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Sarasota, we design immersive, non-traditional weddings that feel like you - not a copy of someone else’s vibe.
We specialize in full-service wedding planning and design, guiding couples from early ideas to fully realized wedding experiences. Whether you’re planning a modern, unconventional celebration or a highly curated design-forward wedding, we make sure every detail is cohesive, immersive, and emotionally memorable. We believe the best weddings happen when strong creative direction and flawless execution work together seamlessly.
Here’s how we bring it all together:
✦ Full-service planning from first ideas to final guest experience
✦ Creative direction that shapes the atmosphere, flow, and personality of your wedding
✦ Layout and floor plan strategy designed around movement, energy, and guest interaction
✦ Vendor guidance and collaboration rooted in trust, communication, and experience
✦ Wedding day management that keeps everything moving without losing the magic
✦ Design cohesion across florals, lighting, rentals, stationery, textures, and spatial experience
✦ Timeline strategy that supports both logistics and emotional flow
✦ Expert guidance for couples who want clarity without cookie-cutter planning
