Baldwin and Rose: Event Enthusiasts

Baldwin and Rose: Event Enthusiasts is a wedding and event coordination and planning company in South Hadley, Massachusetts. Owner Halley built it from a passion project into a full business over about 15 years.

Why they suit LGBTQ+ couples

The business is LGBTQ+-owned, and its tone is relaxed, funny and personal. The team wants you to feel completely comfortable with the person helping you plan, and it opens with a conversation to check that fit rather than a sales pitch. It is a strong fit for couples who want a planner with a sense of humor who takes inside jokes seriously.

What they offer

• Planning for the full wedding weekend
• Pre-events and post-events
• Vendor selection and logistics
• Attention to small personal details
• Help with related events such as showers, brunches and honeymoons

How they work

New clients start with a free 45-minute phone consultation. The purpose is simple: to see whether you like each other, whether you trust the planner to create your vision and whether your senses of humor line up. If it is not the right match, the team says there are no hard feelings. Halley has assisted with dozens of weddings and countless related events.

Where they work

The company is based in South Hadley, Massachusetts. Beach, vineyard and backyard ceremonies appear among its photos, so it is used to varied settings.
