Everything You’ve Wanted to Ask: RJ Stewart Events FAQs

Planning a wedding or event is exciting—but let’s be real, it can also feel like a lot. At RJ Stewart Events, we’re all about making the process feel effortless, elevated, and totally personalized to you. Whether you’re newly engaged, mid-planning and overwhelmed, or just starting to explore what kind of help you need, we’ve put together this FAQ to answer some of the most common questions we get. Let’s dive in!

Who is RJ Stewart Events for?

We specialize in planning unforgettable weddings and celebrations for modern couples who want high-quality service and thoughtful, curated details. Our clients are often busy professionals, entrepreneurs, or creatives who value both efficiency and aesthetics—and who want a seamless, elevated experience from planning to party. If you want a stylish, well-executed event that feels like you without spending every spare second on logistics… we’re your team.

What services do you offer?

We offer four core packages:

1. Full Wedding Planning

From concept to clean-up, we handle everything: budget, vendors, design, timeline, and execution. This is for couples who want a true partner in the process.

2. Partial Planning

You’ve got a handle on some pieces—but want professional help tying it all together. Includes planning sessions, a custom portal, vendor guidance, and full event-day management.

3. Wedding Day Management

Ideal for couples who’ve planned it all but want a pro to take the reins 6-8 weeks out. We’ll finalize details, run your rehearsal, manage your timeline, and ensure everything runs smoothly on the big day.

4. Set Up Package

Need help with setup only? We’ll place your decor, manage small details, and make sure your space is ready for “WOW!” (Includes up to 4 hours of setup.)

When should we reach out to book?

As soon as possible! We typically book 6–18 months in advance depending on your wedding date and the package you’re interested in. If you’re planning a high-season wedding (spring/summer or around the holidays), it’s smart to reach out early so we can reserve your date.

What makes RJ Stewart Events different?

We combine a high-touch planning experience with the organization and professionalism that only comes from truly understanding this industry. Becky Stewart, our founder, is a Master Certified Wedding Planner (that’s the highest level in the field!) and has built a reputation for blending creativity with systems that keep your event on track and stress-free.

We don’t just show up and coordinate—we invest in getting to know you, your style, your priorities, and what will make your day feel deeply personal. And we do it all with a warm, energetic approach that makes the whole process actually fun.

What tools or systems do you use?

Every client gets access to a personalized Planning Portal—think of it as your wedding HQ. It includes a budget tracker, guest list tool, checklist, timeline templates, and more. We also use automation software to streamline communications and paperwork so you’re never wondering where things stand.

Do you help with design and décor?

Yes! For Full and Partial Planning clients, we guide you through developing a cohesive design concept, vendor sourcing, and visual elements that elevate your wedding while staying true to your vision. For Wedding Day Management clients, we provide a decor inventory checklist to help you prep.

Do you plan events other than weddings?

Absolutely! While weddings are our specialty, we also plan milestone celebrations, vow renewals, holiday parties, baby showers, corporate events, and more. If it’s important to you, we’ll help you celebrate it in style.

Where are you located, and do you travel?

We’re based in Connecticut and proudly serve couples throughout New England and beyond. We love a good destination wedding too—so if you’re planning something a little farther afield, let’s chat.
