Meet the Planner

Hi, I’m Shianne, the face behind Only Once Co. With over four years of professional event experience, I’ve planned everything from multi-day conferences to styled social gatherings. My journey into weddings began with vendor-side experience, which gave me a unique understanding of how every piece behind the scenes connects to the bigger picture.

Before launching Only Once Co., I spent several years as a conference planner, where I learned how to keep things moving smoothly, even when things get unpredictable (and they always do). I’m someone who listens closely, thinks creatively, and adapts easily when plans change, because no two weddings are the same, and yours should feel like you.

I believe wedding planning doesn’t have to feel stressful. It can actually be fun! My job is to make sure you feel heard, supported, and calm through every step of the journey. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need a reliable hand to bring it all together at the end, I’m here to make sure your day runs seamlessly, so you can focus on what matters most.

What sets me apart is my background in both vendor and planner roles, which helps me see the full scope of a wedding from both sides. I bring a steady presence, clear communication, and thoughtful strategy to every event I touch. My focus is always on making your experience feel easy, organized, and true to you.

Because you only do this once, and it should feel unforgettable, in the best way!
