One of the most common questions we receive from couples is why we require wedding planning through Blake Events for our Traditional Wedding Packages. The answer is simple: it allows us to create a more seamless, well-executed experience from start to finish.
And this is what matters most to our team at Historic Shady Lane!
A Decade of Expertise Onsite
Blake Events has been planning weddings at Historic Shady Lane for over a decade. That level of experience on our property means their team understands how every part of the day flows, including what works best in each space, how to build a realistic timeline, and how to manage transitions without disruption.
One of our favorite parts of this partnership is consistent vendor communication, meaning all wedding day communications go through Blake Events at least 90 days before an event. This ensures our couples are less overwhelmed with vendor questions, and all vendors have one point of contact!
Moving forward with Blake Events as our exclusive planning partner was a strategic decision. Instead of couples piecing together multiple vendors who may not be familiar with the venue, this partnership creates a streamlined process with a team that already works in sync.
Our couples still enjoy choosing their own vendors for wedding days such as florist, photographer, and caterer, but we can make recommendations as they need.
A Planner-Venue Relationship Benefits Our Couples
Our partnership with Blake Events allows our team at Historic Shady Lane to stay focused on what we do best: maintaining the property, preparing the space, and ensuring an exceptional experience for both couples and their guests.
While Blake Events leads planning, logistics, and vendor coordination, Historic Shady Lane can focus on delivering a setting that feels polished, welcoming, and ready for the day.
Ultimately, this approach removes guesswork, reduces stress, and leads to a wedding day that feels organized, intentional, and easy to enjoy.
