Big Time Creatives

Big Time Creatives is a wedding and event design and planning business headquartered in Austin, Texas. It was founded by Events Director Jordan Adams and Creative Director David Patrick Reed, who together offer more than fifteen years of industry experience.

Why they suit LGBTQ+ couples

Big Time Creatives is LGBTQ+-owned, led by a pair of founders who combine event logistics with creative direction. That blend suits couples who want their wedding to look and feel specific to them, whether the plan is religious or not.

What they offer

• Design and planning for the rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception
• Experience with religious and non-religious weddings
• Day-of coordination, partial planning and full-service planning
• Budget analysis and logistics
• Vendor referrals

How to choose a level of service

Day-of coordination is best if you have booked most vendors. Partial planning adds guidance on decisions and vendors, and full-service planning covers the whole process. Ask what the team does at each step and how often you will meet or speak.

Start with a budget conversation. A planner who analyses your budget can show where money matters most and where you can save. Bring your guest count, a date range and your priorities, and say whether you want a particular style or mood. Ask for vendor referrals for the services you still need, and ask whether the team receives any referral fees so that you understand the recommendations.

Ask for a plan for the rehearsal dinner, as it is part of the offering and often gets less attention than the wedding itself.
