Where Story, Soul, and Thoughtful Design Come Together
MEET YOUR ARIZONA WEDDING PLANNER
Led by Annamarie — Planner, Designer, and Your Steady Voice of Ease
I’m Annamarie, the lead planner and creative director behind Satin & Slate Weddings. With a degree in Special Events Management & Tourism from Arizona State University, eight years in luxury weddings, and a lifetime love of culture and travel, I approach every celebration through a lens of meaning, beauty, and connection. I believe weddings should feel like lived-in stories — textured, layered, and deeply true to the people at the center of them.
My role is part guide, part advocate, part calming presence. I listen first, plan with intention, design with care, and show up with the kind of steady support that lets you and your families feel fully seen and fully at ease.
Whether we’re bringing a vision to life in Scottsdale, Phoenix, Sedona, or abroad, I’m here to ensure your wedding feels personal, grounded, and beautifully crafted.
A Team Who Supports You Like Family
Satin & Slate is built on warmth, transparency, and genuine connection. We treat you like humans first, clients second. We respect your boundaries, honor your backgrounds and traditions, and become the steady hands that carry you through every step of the planning journey. We navigate family dynamics with grace, support your vision with clarity, and advocate for you in every vendor meeting and venue walk-through. Your celebration becomes our shared mission — and we show up with heart every single day.
Honoring Your Backgrounds, Traditions, and Family Dynamics
Your wedding should feel like an authentic reflection of who you are and where you come from. Whether your celebration blends cultures, incorporates heirloom rituals, or brings families together from all over the world, we approach every detail with respect, sensitivity, and intention. We design with cultural depth, plan with awareness, and create space for traditions to shine in meaningful, modern ways. Your identities matter — and we honor them wholeheartedly.
WHAT GUIDES OUR WORK
Traveling the world has shaped the soul of Satin & Slate. We are inspired by the textures of old villages, the way architecture tells stories, and the quiet beauty of landscapes that feel untouched by time. These influences help us create weddings that feel organic, layered, and full of emotion. We approach every wedding as a clean slate, shaped with precision and softened with feeling: always thoughtful, always transparent, always true to you.

You’re inspired by architecture, texture, fashion, and the character of a place — whether it’s a Sedona courtyard, a Scottsdale estate, or a faraway destination rich with culture.
You believe in honest communication, mutual trust, and a wedding that reflects your identities, traditions, and the people who shaped you.
If that sounds like you, we already can’t wait to meet.
