Hello there! My name is Chardae Renée. I call HTX home, but I was born and raised in SoCal! So, why Texas? That's a story for another time. Why wedding planning? Well, let's see...
I’ve always been a focused, driven, and detail-oriented creative type. I found that not only did I enjoy it, but that my skill set from a career in Project Management translated seamlessly to the wedding & event planning industry. It is Project Management, after all, but with more heart, creativity, and just flat-out fun! With Project Management as my background, I bring uncommon and creative solutions to the wedding industry. I’ve learned how to perfectly harmonize my clients’ visions around their preferences, creating the ideal blend of management and design – everything you need to put together an exquisite wedding. Design, details, and all things lovely? YES PLEASE! My organizational skills and naturally tranquil yet joyous demeanor bring my clients calm in place of chaos. I know how to take a big-picture project and break it down into smaller details and action items, all the while tending to matters of the heart (should you choose to let me in). After all, a wedding isn’t just a project – it’s an intimate story involving real people.
I am very fortunate to be married to the man of my dreams, Michael. A healthy marriage is a beautiful union of service, commitment, and devotion – a covenant, not a contract – which is why I am not just passionate about executing an impeccable wedding day – I also care about your relationship. The wedding planning process can be daunting and feel like a challenge at times, but it can be (and should be) a time to grow closer as a couple. As your wedding planner, I aim to pave a seamless path for you and your partner to enter into the miraculous and marvelous world of marriage in peace and joy.
Outside of wedding planning, I am a worshiper at heart. I am a Christian and follow Jesus Christ. You can find me leading worship across Houston (yes, I sing!). I enjoy "Wishing Walks" with my husband, where we discuss our plans and dreams for the future. We also model with Styled Shoot Collective from time to time! Providing me with the opportunity to network with various vendors across the Houston area. I love musicals, traveling, eating (we're foodies! It's hard to not be in Houston, am I right?), and reading. Immersing myself in a good book while sipping a hot, freshly ground cup of coffee (extra sweet cream, frothed, please) = Heaven. My most frequented coffee spots are Pavón Coffee Den, Della Coffee, and Fifth Vessel. Let's grab a cup together!
When I started wedding planning, I had no idea or expectation that it would take off as quickly as it has. I began coordinating for friends on the side, which led to referrals and, eventually, requests for full-scale planning.
I originally named the business "Your Day With Chardae Renée" but as this business has grown and developed, time and timing consistently stand out. One of my favorite scriptures states it beautifully: "He has made all things beautiful in its time" (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Perhaps, for you, it didn't take long to find "the one." Or, maybe you've been waiting for what seems like an eternity, and your time has finally come. Regardless of where you fall on the timeline, we can all agree that timing is everything. Et Voilà, In Time Weddings & Events stole the crown.
I am eager to celebrate love and marriage coming into time for you!
