Hi! I'm Meggie Francisco. I'm a destination wedding planner with home bases in Dallas, Texas and Columbus, Ohio. Past and upcoming destination wedding and photo shoot locations include:
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
Lake Tahoe/Truckee, California
New Braunfels, Texas
Montego Bay, Jamaica
Telluride/Ouray/Durango, Colorado
San Juan, Puerto Rico
I am always learning about new locations around the world where my couples can celebrate their love! My latest research is centered around Italy, including the Tuscany/Florence and Amalfi Coast regions.
I specialize in providing competent, full-service leadership and elegant design through a minimalist destination wedding planning process. By minimalist, I don't mean barren or plain: I only mean that I steer my to couples focus on the most impactful elements of the day to create an inviting environment without going overboard. I give them permission to relax and let go of outdated traditions. I help them to understand they may only need to do 2 of the 20 stressful things a wedding magazine insists they must do if they don't want to face eternal social judgment (Spoiler: You won't believe number 5!).
I believe in this because I myself am on a conscious journey to simplify life and focus on meaningful experiences and relationships, and I want to share that with my clients. A marriage is something to be celebrated, I enjoy making the day beautiful. I love working with artists who are passionate about fine art floral design, elegant paper techniques, and heartwarming entertainment. But I also believe that enthusiasm for these elements needs to be grounded; we should do our best to select each component based on what makes the couple truly happy, not on what the wedding industry tells them they "should" do. At all times, we need to remember that the true investment is the marriage, not the wedding day.
