The Wedding Jumpstart
A calm, confident place to begin.
Most couples don’t need more ideas —
they need a way in.
The Wedding Jumpstart™ is a beautifully simple starting point for couples who feel overwhelmed, unsure where to begin, or afraid of making early mistakes that cost time, money, and momentum later.
This is not a full planning system.
It’s the on-ramp.
A thoughtful first step that helps you get oriented, grounded, and clear — before decisions start piling up.
What this is
The Wedding Jumpstart™ is a short, focused planning companion designed to help you:
Understand what actually matters at the beginning
Identify your early priorities (before vendors, venues, or budgets spiral)
Avoid common first-step mistakes that lead to stress later
Move forward with clarity — not pressure
It’s designed to be approachable, calming, and easy to complete — even if wedding planning currently feels like too much.
What’s inside
Inside The Wedding Jumpstart™, you’ll find:
A clear explanation of what to think about first (and what can wait)
Gentle prompts to help you articulate what you want — without forcing decisions
Simple frameworks that reduce second-guessing
Space to reflect, note priorities, and gain confidence before moving forward
No spreadsheets.
No overwhelm.
No endless checklists.
Just enough structure to help you begin.
Who this is for
This is for couples who:
Feel stuck at the starting line
Keep asking, “What should we even be doing right now?”
Want a calm, intentional approach — not a frantic one
Plan to DIY most of their wedding, but want guidance they can trust
Who this is not for
If you’re ready to map your full budget, vendor strategy, and timeline, you may be ready for the next step.
The Wedding Jumpstart™ is meant to be completed quickly — then set aside — once you’re ready to move into deeper planning.
Where this fits in the system
The Wedding Jumpstart™ is part of the Calyx & Cabana planning framework.
Most couples begin here —
and then move into The Strategy Edit™ or the Full Wedding Suite once they’re ready to plan in depth.
Think of this as the opening chapter — not the whole book.
Begin here
Start with clarity.
Start without pressure.
Start with intention.
The Wedding Jumpstart™ is ready when you are.
