Frequently Asked Questions About DIY Wedding Planning

We understand that planning your dream wedding can be intimidating. Don't worry. You've got this!

Question 1: How much does it cost to plan your own wedding?

The average DIY wedding costs 40-60% less than hiring a full-service wedding planner. With my proven system, couples typically save $3,000-$8,000 while still creating their dream celebration. The key is knowing where to splurge and where to save.

Question 2: What's the difference between a wedding planner and wedding coach?

A traditional wedding planner does the work for you, while a DIY wedding coach teaches YOU how to do it yourself. I provide the roadmap, tools, and guidance - you maintain control and save thousands. Think of me as your knowledgeable aunt who's been through it all!

Question 3: Can I really plan a beautiful wedding on a tight budget?

Absolutely! I've helped hundreds of couples create stunning weddings on budgets from $3,000 to $15,000. It's not about how much you spend - it's about spending smart and knowing the insider secrets that make a big impact.

Question 4: How long does it take to plan a DIY wedding?

Most couples need 9-12 months to plan their wedding comfortably. My 12-week program can be completed at your own pace, and I provide timeline templates for different planning scenarios - whether you have 6 months or 18 months.

Question 5: What if I get overwhelmed during the planning process?

That's exactly why I created this program! You're not doing this alone. My step-by-step system breaks everything into manageable pieces, and I provide ongoing support through video guidance and worksheets. Plus, you'll know exactly what to tackle next.

Get to know me!



I began this dream over 30 years ago.

My role has been to coach each couple through the steps of making a plan, setting goals and working towards their Dream Wedding.

The summer after our wedding, I was designing a friends wedding gown.

She called me and told me that they moved the wedding up to the following Sunday, and could I help her with everything?!

It was through that experience that I realized that not everyone has a Tribe. I did my best, having just gone through it all, and she had a lovely, intimate affair.

That experience made an impact on me and I vowed that if I could be involved, no bride would have to experience the stress and pain of planning her wedding.

The DIY Wedding Coach includes everything I have learned and created over the past 3 decades. I've created it with you-the DIY couple- in mind.

YOU remain in control.

I am simply a guide, and accountability partner, a mediator. I help you steer the ship.

Need to work within a budget? This is for you. 

Need some help with planning? This is for you.

Need help organizing and knowing where to begin? Yep. This is for you. 

I hope you'll take a look around, read the blog and grab the freebies I've created to get you started in the right direction. 

What do past clients think?

"Without reservation I would recommend Corri "

"My daughter chose Corri Lewis to help plan her wedding. I liked how Corri respected her wishes and together they fashioned a wedding quite unique for my daughter on our limited budget. It was so much better than re-inventing the wheel. I appreciate Corri's servant heart and willingness to serve to make my daughter’s wedding her dream-come-true." - Nancy

"Working with Corri was a breeze"

"Corri came HIGHLY recommended from a mutual friend, so we asked for her help with our big day. I felt heard and validated and encouraged and reassured about every detail. She's thoughtful and offers tips & suggestions, but I never felt like she was hijacking our special day to make it something we didn't want. Corri helped us stay on track during the planning." - Christa

"Thanks to Corri, my wedding day was everything that I hoped for"

"I will forever be grateful for Corri’s involvement in planning my wedding. She took my vision for the day and my very small budget, and walked me through each step and important detail of the planning process. She equipped me with a timeline and checked in with me consistently to keep my procrastinating self on task. Her guidance empowered me with the confidence, direction, and unique ideas that I needed." - Rachel

"Thank you!"

"“Oh yeah, Corri made our wedding so awesome!” " - Chris-Rachel’s husband
