The Goal Isn't Perfection... It's Feeling like The Bride Again
Feel like the bride instead of the event manager with ongoing coaching, practical guidance, and a supportive community created exclusively for backyard brides.
Because Backyard Weddings Don't Come With A Venue Coordinator
Traditional venues come with built-in systems and experienced coordinators.
Backyard weddings don't.
You're creating the venue while planning the celebration.
Your questions are different.
Your guidance should be too.
You don’t need another checklist
You need a Guiding Star
You don’t need More Ideas You need a Clear Path
Inside the Guiding Star Society, you’ll get weekly answers in live Virtual Group coaching, Backyard-specific planning tools, and steady support from a backyard wedding expert who Truly gets it.
Every week brings new Questions...
Where should guests park?
Will the caterer fit through the gate?
How many restrooms do we need?
How do we keep Grandma comfortable?
What if it rains?
Should the ceremony face this direction?
Am I forgetting something important?
Every answer creates another question....
And that's exactly why Guiding Star Society exists.
For every decision between "Yes!" and "I do."
So You Never Have To Figure It Out Alone.

Dear Backyard Bride
Who is Doing Her Best…
Planning a backyard wedding is no small thing. It’s beautiful. It’s brave. And, if we’re honest… it’s a lot. You’ve been carrying the details, balancing everyday life, and trying to create something unforgettable. I see you. Take a slow breath. Smile. Because you don’t have to do this alone anymore. This is a place where you can ask questions, make decisions with confidence, and move forward knowing someone understands exactly what you’re building. Think of me as your Wedding Mama… without the drama. I’m in your corner.
Always,
Kellydawn

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?

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.
Take a breath... and let your heart answer.
