FAQs

General

Does Complete Take Checks

Short answer Yes we take checks, as long as they are made payable to “Erica Stoner” or “Majestic Memories Wedding and Event Planning LLC”.

What if I need more time the night of the event?

If you need more time than what you booked prior to your event, you’re able to add time on at any point (even the night of) with any Complete Weddings + Events service! Just let us know, and we’ll take care of you on your special day!

How do I make a payment or pay my booking fee?

To pay the booking fee and officially lock in your date , visit completeeventmanager.com. Add in your email address and password (provided from your event consultant) to log in to your online account and make a deposit or payment.

What if my ceremony is in a different location from my reception?

If your ceremony is in a different location as your reception, the Complete Weddings + Events team is able to travel between both locations. Many weddings need photography, videography, sound, or music for both their ceremony and reception, and we can build a package that accommodates your specific situation! Depending on where the ceremony and reception are located in comparison to one another, there could potentially be mileage fees.

Having your ceremony and reception in the same place can be convenient for you and your guests, especially if you have a late afternoon or evening ceremony when the cocktail hour or dinner is starting right after the wedding ceremony. Many venues even have separate space available for the ceremony, so there is no need to flip the room, or the venue may have space for the cocktail area so guests can leave while the staff prepares the room for the reception and dinner. It’s all up to you!

Should I hire a Day-of Coordinator?

Short answer – yes! If you don’t already have a wedding planner and don’t plan to get one, a day-of coordinator takes the stress off your shoulders so you can relax on your actual wedding day for less than the cost of a wedding planner. They make sure your wedding is set up perfectly to your vision, make sure your vendors arrive on time, and are your go-to for anything you need that day! If there’s an issue, you will never know because they got it. They got you!

Additionally, we offer a discount on your DJ, photography and videography services when you book a day-of coordinator. These members of our team usually have to step up and multitask more on your big day to fill part of the role a coordinator would play in keeping your wedding on track.

Do you travel outside of South Bend?

Yes! We frequently serve weddings in Michigan City, Elkhart, Warsaw, Nappanee and all of the surrounding Michiana areas. Travel fees apply depending on distance.

Can we split up the contracted hours?

Unfortunately, our contracted hours are consecutive and not able to be split up on one single day. Our professionals are more than happy to help with whatever you need, and will always be doing something to better their service for you throughout your contracted time with them.

If downtime allows, our team of photographers and videographers will be capturing footage of guests, décor, venue, and unique details of the day. Our DJ will play background music, hold doors open while greeting guests, take song requests, and get guests ready for the next event whether it’s cake cutting, dinner, or the first dance. Our photo booth operators will invite guests to the photo booth or remind them when it’s about to be available, when the line has lessened, or when it’s about to close to make sure it’s used to it’s fullest!

Can we customize a package with only the services we need?

Absolutely! You can bundle any combination of our services to match your needs, vision and budget for your big day!

How far in advance should we book our services

We recommend booking as early as possible—ideally 9 to 12 months in advance—to ensure your date is available, especially for peak seasons. However, we can often accommodate month-of bookings depending on staff and equipment availability. Please note that coordination services benefit greatly from early booking, as more preparation time allows us to better tailor the timeline, communicate with your vendors, and ensure a smooth, stress-free experience on your wedding day.

When can I expect to hear back from Complete after reaching out?

We typically respond within minutes during business hours, either through phone call, text message, or email. (Check your spam folder if you haven’t heard from us!)

If you haven’t heard from us within 24 business hours, don’t hesitate to contact us again, as we may have not received your inquiry.
