Hi, I’m Deanna — the founder of To the Last Petal and your go-to wedding planning partner!

My journey into the wedding world began with my own big day. I planned every detail from start to finish completely on my own — from vendor research to DIY decor — and I absolutely loved every second of it. The organization, the creativity, the ability to bring a vision to life... it all sparked something in me. I discovered a deep passion for planning and quickly realized I wanted to help others feel that same joy, calm, and magic on their wedding day.

By profession, I’m a labor and delivery nurse — so you could say I’m no stranger to high-pressure moments or making people feel safe and supported during major life events. Wedding planning has become a second passion for me, one that lets me combine my love for love, my eye for detail, and my ability to stay calm and collected under pressure.

Whether you need full-service planning or just someone to make sure everything runs smoothly on your big day, I’m here to make sure your wedding feels just as beautiful, personal, and stress-free as you imagined.

I believe the most meaningful weddings are the ones that feel truly personal, where every detail reflects the couple’s story, style, and values. I love getting to know each client and thoughtfully tailoring every element of the celebration to them, from the big-picture vision to the smallest, most intentional touches. It’s a joy and an honor to bring that level of care to such a significant day.

As a Latina, I bring a rich appreciation for culture, tradition, and storytelling. I love working with couples who want to honor their heritage, whether it’s through language, food, or meaningful family traditions. I offer multilingual assistance to make sure every voice feels heard and included.

At To the Last Petal, I believe planning your wedding should feel as joyful as the day itself. I’m here to guide, organize, and dream alongside you—bringing a calm, creative presence to every step of the process. My style blends garden whimsy with intentional design, always rooted in your vision.

Whether you're planning a bilingual ceremony, weaving in cultural traditions, or just want a planner who truly gets how important family is, I'm here to help you create a day that celebrates all of you.
