Dear Backyard Bride
Who is Doing Her Best…

Planning a backyard wedding is no small thing. It’s beautiful. It’s brave. And, let’s be honest... it’s a lot. You’ve been carrying the details, balancing real life, and trying your best to make it all come together. I see you. Before we dive in, take a moment. Exhale. Take a slow, deep breath. Let yourself smile, because you don’t have to do this alone anymore. You’ve found a space where it’s safe to ask, plan, dream, and move forward without second guessing every step. Think of this like having an extra wedding mom in your corner. One who’s steady, drama free, and genuinely wants to see you shine. Because I do!
In your corner.
Always,

Kellydawn

FAQ

What If I only need help for a few months?

Whether you need a one-time plan or steady support through your big day, you’re welcome here. The Guiding Star Society is a monthly coaching virtual space that meets you exactly where you are. This isn’t full-service planning with a long-term commitment. It’s flexible, month-to-month support so you can get expert answers about your backyard, your family, your budget, or whatever’s weighing on you. Come for what you need. Stay for as long as it helps.

How Is This Different From Free Content Online?

Free content gives you ideas. This gives you answers. Personalized, timely, and rooted in real-life

Why $297/month?

Because you’re not just buying a planner or a template. You’re getting hands-on support, personal coaching, expert guidance, and someone to walk with you through the tough spots. So you can lower your stress, sidestep common pitfalls, and actually enjoy your engagement while planning your backyard wedding.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Monthly plans are cancel-anytime . Semi-Annual plans are a six-month commitment with major savings.

What if I don't want to join the private community?

No problem. The tools, group coaching, and growth all work without it, but the support is there if you want it.

Hey there, sweet bride...

Hey there, sweet bride...

Planning a backyard wedding is beautiful—but it can also feel like a lot to hold. If you're here, I’m guessing the pressure has started to weigh a little heavier than it should.

Because this group is intentionally kept small (just 15 brides at a time), I ask a few short questions to be sure it’s the right fit for what you need—and that you’ll feel truly supported inside.

Before we move forward, I’d love to learn a little more about your story.

There are no wrong answers here—just a space to be real.
