Lead Designer

Emily Twohig

As the Lead Designer at Planned by Peter, Emily brings over five years of experience in the wedding industry and a strong background in project management, allowing her to create celebrations that are both visually extraordinary and flawlessly executed. She believes the way you and your guests feel throughout your wedding is shaped by the visual experience. The colors, textures, lighting, florals, and every detail set the tone for your day.

Weddings are among life's most important moments, and your design should reflect that significance with something truly showstopping. Her approach blends refined aesthetics with intentional storytelling, guiding each design from initial inspiration to its final breathtaking reveal so your celebration feels unforgettable in every sense.

From a destination couple

If there was a 10 star option, I would give Peter 10 stars! We had a destination wedding and he made sure EVERYTHING was perfect. He is so well organized and professional. I honestly could not have done this without him and his designer Emily. Such a joy to work with them. Best wedding planner ever. Thank you Peter and Emily for making our wedding the most memorable day ever.
