About Weddings by Gabrielle
Gabrielle Nelson
Hi, I'm Gabrielle. I'm the owner and lead planner behind Weddings by Gabrielle, a luxury wedding planning and design studio serving Salt Lake City, Park City, and destination weddings throughout Utah and beyond. I believe the best weddings feel effortless, not because they happen by chance, but because every detail has been thoughtfully planned long before your guests arrive. From comprehensive timelines and refined design concepts to vendor management and wedding day production, my role is to create an experience where you can be fully present while every moving piece unfolds exactly as intended.
Whether I'm planning an elegant celebration in Park City, a timeless Salt Lake City ballroom wedding, or an intimate destination weekend in Zion, my approach remains the same: intentional design, calm leadership, and meticulous organization. My mission is simple: I handle the logistics, protect the experience, and create the space for you to simply enjoy one of the most meaningful days of your life.
In three words: Confident, Efficient, Resourceful

Gabby is the GOAT!
My wife and I absolutely loved our experience working with Gabby and her team. They went above and beyond to make our day go smoothly. We were ahead of schedule all day, and they were very organized. I even forgot our marriage license at home, and Gabby sent her assistant to get it for us. Our wedding day was perfect and seriously Gabby and her team were a huge part of that. We could not recommend her enough!

The Above and Beyond Wedding Planner You Need!
Gabby is the woman you need planning and executing your day. From the moment we booked with Gabby, she went above and beyond to get to know us and love us well. Gabby is incredibly kind, thorough, and thoughtful. There was not a single time during the planning process where we were nervous, which is strictly because Gabby handled everything and even provided us details that we would've overlooked. She met with us whenever we needed, and she was always patient when I asked questions and shared ideas (even when they were last minute)! She always found solutions when hiccups occurred and wasn't afraid to share ideas and help us make the day even more intentional and special. Not only that, but all of our other vendors, including our venue, specifically thanked us for picking such a detailed, attentive planner. Gabby became family throughout our process, and there is no one more talented, meticulous, and creative than her. If you want a stress-free, perfect day, then book with Gabby!

BEST decision made for my wedding
Hiring Gabrielle was the single best decision we made for our wedding, and if we did it all over again we would choose her in a heartbeat. From day one, she was incredibly responsive and stayed on top of every detail, which gave us so much peace of mind throughout the planning process. Gabrielle's knowledge about weddings is unmatched. She knew exactly what to do in any situation and came prepared for anything that came up. On our wedding day, she kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes, and we didn't stress about a single thing because she had it all handled. We can't recommend her enough and would hire her again without hesitation.

Gabby is the best!
Gabby and her team knocked it out of the park. She made the wedding day run so smoothly so we could just enjoy celebrating with all our friends and family. Gabby was a great communicator with us and all vendors involved. 10/10 recommend.

A game changer!
Working with Gabrielle from Weddings by Gabrielle was such a game-changer for our wedding day. She listened to what we wanted, studied our vision boards, and made it all real in ways we didn't even know were possible. Throughout the planning process, she was honest with us, kind in her approach, and always quick to respond when we had questions or concerns. On the day itself, she and her team set up a call button system so we could reach her instantly if we needed anything, and she was always right there. Her eye for design and knowledge of the industry showed in every detail, from the smallest touches to the overall flow of the event. She managed everything so smoothly that we were able to just enjoy our day instead of worrying about logistics. We can't recommend Gabrielle enough!
