Meet Demetrice

Planning with calm, clarity, and care.

I founded I DO Dreams LLC in 2014 with the belief that a beautiful event should feel as good as it looks. My role is to listen closely, organize the moving pieces, and guide couples through decisions with honesty and care.

With experience in vendor coordination, budgeting, contracts, design, and event-day logistics, I bring both creativity and structure to every celebration. My goal is to help each bride and groom feel confident in the plan and fully present for the moments that matter.

Client experiences

Trusted for the moments that matter most.

Weddings, milestone celebrations, and destination events—planned with care from the first conversation through the final detail.

I hired I DO Dreams for full-service planning for my wedding in Maryland, even though the company is based in Virginia. Planning a wedding can already be stressful, so having someone manage all of the details made such a difference. From the planning process through the wedding day, I felt like I had someone there who understood what I wanted and was committed to making it happen. The fact that my wedding was out of state never felt like a problem. I was able to enjoy my wedding instead of worrying about every little detail. I highly recommend I DO Dreams, especially to brides who want someone by their side throughout the entire planning process.

AllysonFull-Service Wedding Client · Maryland

I DO Dreams has planned two very important events for my family—our destination vow renewal in Florida and my son’s graduation party. Both events were completely different, but each one was handled with so much care. Our vow renewal was especially meaningful to us, and having someone help bring everything together while we were away from home made the experience much less stressful. When it was time for my son’s graduation celebration, I trusted I DO Dreams again. I loved being able to enjoy these special moments with my family without having to worry about all of the details. I would absolutely use I DO Dreams again!

Frequently asked questions

What clients
need to know.

When should we book wedding planning or coordination?+

Full-service planning is most helpful when booked early. Month-of coordination should also be reserved well in advance, even though the detailed handoff begins closer to your wedding date.

How is planning different from month-of coordination?+

Planning supports the full process, including priorities, vendors, design, and execution. Month-of coordination is for couples who have already made the plans and want a professional to organize the final details and manage the event.

Do you offer setup and breakdown without staying for the event?+

Yes. Setup Only concludes before guests arrive, while Setup & Breakdown includes a scheduled return after the event. These services are ideal when the plans are complete and you need hands-on help preparing and clearing the space rather than continuous on-site management.

Are decorations, rentals, and other physical items included?+

Starting investments cover professional planning, coordination, or setup services and the staffing stated in your proposal. Linens, centerpieces, florals, balloons, backdrops, furniture, stationery, rentals, delivery, and other vendor costs are separate unless specifically listed in your proposal.

How many assistants are included?+

Wedding starting prices for celebrations of up to 125 guests include one event-day assistant. Event setup staffing is based on the number of tables, décor quantity, assembly needs, venue access window, breakdown deadline, guest count, and event complexity. Any additional staffing will be clearly listed in your proposal.

Do you work outside the Richmond area?+

Yes. I DO Dreams is based in Chesterfield, Virginia, and is available for weddings and events outside Virginia. Your proposal will account for the complete route across all event locations and may include mileage, tolls, parking, travel time, or overnight accommodations depending on distance and schedule.

Can you manage events with multiple locations?+

Yes. Please include each location in your consultation request. Travel time, transitions, staffing, load-in requirements, and coverage at each venue will be considered when creating your service proposal.

What events do you plan beyond weddings?+

I DO Dreams plans milestone birthdays, anniversaries, showers, graduations, retirement celebrations, corporate gatherings, launches, luncheons, nonprofit events, and other thoughtfully hosted occasions.

What is required to reserve an event date?+

After your consultation, you will receive a customized proposal outlining the recommended service, scope, staffing, travel, and investment. Your date is reserved once the agreement is signed and the required non-refundable retainer is paid. Payment and cancellation terms are provided for review before booking.
