Post-Coronavirus Planning

Our hearts go out to our brides who have had their planning or entire event derailed by the current coronavirus crisis.

At the time of publishing this post, we are just starting to welcome couples back into the shop for scheduled appointments. For those unable or not ready to visit us in person, we are also offering consultations via Skype. You can find more details about our current operations here.

We’ve heard that as events have been moved to new dates, previously booked vendors are no longer available. So as we welcome brides back into the shop to resume planning, we thought a list of highlighted vendors may be helpful in getting you back on track.

White Willow Events | Full-Service Planning, Day-Of Coordination, Micro-Weddings
Taia Alvarado owns White Willow Events in Lafayette, IN and can help your planning process in ways you haven’t even thought of yet! I hired Taia for my own wedding in 2019. My mom told me it was “the best money I had ever spent”! She completely alleviated any headaches regarding the wedding day schedule and logistics. If that’s not a worthy testimonial, I don’t know what is!

IS Photographic | Wedding & Portrait Photography
Owner Dave Mason has over a decade of professional portrait and wedding photography throughout Greater Lafayette and Indianapolis. Dave has taken our staff and event photos for us at Rubia for many years.


Carnahan Hall | Event Venue & Mobile Bar Service
Carnahan is more than an event venue! Centrally located in the Market Square plaza in Lafayette, we have seen their space used for weddings, meetings, concerts, parties and more! Did you know they also offer a mobile bar service? I thought this worth mentioning as we have seen many couples choose to have a small ceremony at home with a big party later!

Last year Carnahan Hall brought a full bar to us at our 15th Anniversary party here at the shop. Their services set the party in motion and let myself and our staff focus on our customers and the party!

Victoria Rayburn Photography | Wedding Photographer
We’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Victoria on a number of weddings and styled shoots. She is passionate about marriage and cares deeply for the couples she serves!

Rat Pak Venue | Event Venue
If your guest list is smaller now than it once was, or you need a space for a shower or rehearsal dinner, let us suggest Rat Pak Venue. Conveniently located in downtown Lafayette with a great picture window view of the courthouse. We love how versatile their space can be: a separate area for the bar, dessert table, or photobooth, and the main room can be filled with guest tables or split to make room for dancing! Nick makes it easy to coordinate with other vendors to pull together your event quickly.
