Education & Inspiration for Wedding Venues
this is your future we are talking about
Running a wedding venue means being part of many couples’ big days—but it’s your legacy on the line.
While boundlessly rewarding and profitable, this corner of the wedding industry can be a no-man's-land of wildly overwhelming hoops to jump through.
If YOU can’t watch your blindside, you need someone who can. Enter me.
Meet Lindsay
Lindsay works directly with wedding venue owners to demystify the process of running a profitable, sustainable wedding venue and puts owners on the path to a business that works for them, not the other way around. Her favorite people to work with are the kind wearing dirty (but reliable) boots—farmers, ranchers, & other people who can confidently ride a horse. If you’re the type who likes to look off over the horizon & not see your neighbors … she’s all in.
Since 2016, Lindsay’s helped more than 700 venue owners secure funding, scale for sustainable growth, and everything in between. Her portfolio of clients includes venue properties accounting for more than $46M in revenue over the last 6 years.
Wife. Mom. Venue consultant. Sweet-tea addict.
When she’s not in the office or running carpool, you can find Lindsay daydreaming about walking the rows of dahlias at Floret Flower Farm (still waiting on her invite) or how she’d turn Yellowstone Ranch into Beth Dutton’s most virtuous business venture.

you wouldn’t even consider this path if you didn’t.
Let us help make sure the heart behind your mission comes to life when we put our heads together.
I’m the original wedding venue consultant …
I spent countless hours (usually late at night) texting, emailing, and chatting with wedding venue owners, moonlighting as their pseudo-therapist/strategist, while also planning weddings full time, and starting my family.
Once I realized my plate had become overwhelmed with giving advice, I also noticed I had NO ONE to hand these new friends off to …
I made my Friends-style pivot and started serving a full roster of one-on-one venue consulting clients. It was a total deviation from what I’d spent the last decade doing—and I loved it. My notes on wedding venues that I used to use when giving brides advice became literal GOLD when I could share them with venue owners in the process of building out their properties.
My early clients ran the full gamut of styles, locations, and more … but I found my happy place in the wide-open spaces at rural venues that offer a kind of peaceful elegance that just doesn’t exist in the big city.
If you need boots to walk your venue and a bit of horse sense to appreciate the smell of hay in the breeze—I’m your girl.
If Beth Dutton was going to take on a virtuous endeavor, she’d be my ideal client. In real life, Dutton Ranch would make a GORGEOUS wedding venue if I do say so myself, but I digress …
You know how I know?
Cue my realization that I was in the wrong part of the wedding industry.
