1. One Day Affair
Website:https://www.onedayaffair.ca/
Address: 225 Herring Cove Road
Contact: (902) 719-9225 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday – Friday: 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Couples seeking an inclusive, women-owned team will appreciate how One Day Affair Wedding & Event Design creates an expressly Two-Spirit LGBTQIA+ affirming space.
They specialize in traditional setups and intimate elopements, offering extensive in-house decor rentals that keep your design visually cohesive.
Their design eye is magnificent, lifting the logistical burden completely off your shoulders so you can focus entirely on celebrating your love story.
When my close friend worked with them last summer, they noted how flawless the day-of execution felt from start to finish.
They even offer their own private micro-venue called One Day Social Affair.
However, because they heavily prioritize their proprietary intimate space for smaller gatherings, you might find fewer dedicated package options if you want to plan a micro-wedding at an external location.
Customer Reviews:
So kind and lovely to work with
Shannon, Laura and the entire One Day Affair team made our wedding day dreams come true. They took our vision, elevated it and executed it to perfection. They are so kind and lovely to work with as well, which made the entire process stress free. Whatever you can dream up, they will make it happen. I would recommend them to absolutely everyone for a stress free wedding experience for the most beautiful wedding.

ODA saved our wedding day decor
ODA saved our wedding day decor! We had ordered greenery online and found out it wasn’t going to make it on time the day before our event. I emailed ODA the night before asking if there was any way they could help, not expecting a response as it was so last minute, but they replied!

2. Pineapple Eventworks
Website:https://www.pineappleworks.ca/
Address: 618 Bedford Hwy
Contact: (902) 367-4944 | [email protected]
Hours:
- Monday – Friday: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM
- Saturday: 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM
If you’d rather work with one team instead of coordinating multiple vendors, Pineapple Eventworks makes wedding planning much easier.
In addition to traditional planning services, they offer certified in-house bartenders, custom balloon décor, and event coordination, giving couples more under one roof.
Their team is also quick to adapt when unexpected challenges arise, whether that’s moving an outdoor ceremony because of coastal weather or adjusting plans to meet changing requirements.
Since they work as a party planner for birthdays, corporate events, and other celebrations, they bring plenty of experience beyond weddings.
The tradeoff is that couples looking for a luxury wedding-only boutique may prefer a more specialized planner.
Still, they’re an excellent choice for couples planning a Halifax wedding from another province or country, thanks to their flexibility with different time zones.
Customer Reviews:
Tina kept us organized, on track, and regularly raised planning details
We worked with Tina and Pineapple Events to plan our October 2025 wedding, and had a really positive experience! As an Ontario-based couple with the majority of our guests travelling in from out of province, it was such a relief to have someone with strong local knowledge and relationships guiding us through the process. Tina kept us organized, on track, and regularly raised planning details we never would have thought of ourselves.

Would choose to work with Pineapple Eventworks again in a heartbeat
If we had to do it all over again, we would choose to work with Pineapple Eventworks again in a heartbeat. Tina planned a Bijou Micro wedding for us and we could not have been happier with the entire experience. We loved the Bijou Micro wedding offering because it allowed us the intimacy of a small wedding without compromising on any of the other details.

3. Gray Weddings & Events

Address: 30 Avebury Ct, Middle Sackville
Contact: (902) 478-0086 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday – Friday: 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Coastal weddings often require extra planning, and this team has the local knowledge to make the process much smoother.
Known for coordinating weddings at venues like Oceanstone Seaside Resort, they offer flexible planning packages designed to support couples at every stage of the planning journey.
Whether you need full-service planning or day-of coordination, their approach is highly organized and personalized.
Lead coordinator Caitlin Gray also made a strong impression with her calm personality and thoughtful guidance, helping couples feel more relaxed throughout the planning process.
Her experience solving vendor and venue challenges adds even more confidence on the wedding day.
One thing to keep in mind is that consultations are limited to weekdays, which may be less convenient for busy professionals.
Customer Reviews:
Incredibly personable
Lots of people assume you can do this yourself or enlist a family member, but it’s SO important to have a professional on your side to be your advocate – weddings can be stressful!! After considering a few local options, I chose Caitlin. She’s insanely organized, incredibly personable and the perfect fit for anyone who values having time to enjoy their wedding day. I was able to hang with family and friends, have special moments with my husband, and dance-offs with my niece and nephew, instead of stressing about items that Caitlin had completely under control.

Excellent multitasker
We had Caitlin for the month leading up to our wedding day. She was very well organized as a wedding / event planner should be. She’s an excellent multitasker and stayed positive throughout the whole planning process. She is great with managing time and everything stayed right on track day of wedding.

4. House (Graceful Weddings & Events)
Website:https://www.gracefulweddingsandevents.ca/
Address: 74 Tilbury Ave Bedford
Contact: (902) 471-1576 | [email protected] | gracefulweddingsandevents.ca
Hours: Monday – Friday: 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
House Graceful Weddings & Events is a great fit for couples organizing weddings across more than one location.
They handle everything from design to multi-venue coordination and regularly travel throughout Nova Scotia and neighboring Atlantic Provinces.
As experienced event planners, they provide honest recommendations that help tie every part of the celebration together.
I also appreciate their hands-on approach to venue setup. Their clear communication with couples is also a plus for those who are planning from outside the region.
Do take note, though, that they’re not entertaining briefings and consultations on weekends, as they’re busy focusing on events scheduled on those days.
Customer Reviews:
Hannah is amazing at her craft
There is no debate, hiring a planner is worth it. And Hannah is amazing at her craft. She will also be so considerate, compassionate and just as excited about your day as your are. We could not imagine navigating this milestone without her

Hannah’s the most professional
Where do we begin with working with Hannah? She is the most professional, hardworking, smart woman who has created such a successful wedding planning business. From day one we knew Hannah was going to be just what we were looking for to satisfy our wedding planning needs.

5. Julie K Events
Website:https://juliekevents.com/
Address: Purdy’s Wharf, 1959 Upper Water St, Suite 1301 Tower 1
Contact: (902) 403-5050
Hours: Monday – Thursday: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM
For couples who want a wedding that’s anything but ordinary, this planner offers a fresh take on luxury celebrations.
Their specialty is all-inclusive elopements with extraordinary experiences, from helicopter flights to intimate ceremonies on private islands.
I love how they provide educational workshops that help couples organize their ideas and budget before choosing vendors, making the planning process much smoother.
But because the company serves both Alberta and Nova Scotia while operating only 4 days a week, scheduling in-person consultations may require some flexibility.
Even so, their cross-provincial experience makes them an excellent resource for destination couples looking for reliable local suppliers.
Customer Reviews:
Wished I worked with Julie sooner
If you are thinking about hiring a wedding planner, choosing Julie K Events would be a great idea. My only wish would have been working with Julie sooner. My experience working with Julie was so smooth. She went above and beyond to ensure that my wedding day went perfectly from start to finish.
