Mae&Co Creative

What Mae&Co Creative does

Mae&Co Creative is a privately-held luxury wedding planning and design studio founded in 2015 and based in Portland, Oregon (per firmographics). The company plans and designs destination weddings and events for private, corporate, and brand clients worldwide, operating with a deliberately capped volume of approximately five weddings per year and an average engagement horizon of up to fourteen months. Founder Manda Worthington leads a team of 1-10 employees that has collectively traveled to over seventy countries, executing multi-day event productions at flagship venues including Amangiri (Canyon Point, Utah), One&Only Mandarina (Mexico), Loloma Lodge (Oregon), Rosewood Miramar Beach (California), The Bowery Hotel (New York), Belmond La Residencia (Mallorca), and Hotel Raya on Panarea Island (Italy).

The core product is full-service wedding planning covering concept and design, vendor sourcing, floor plans, timeline creation, guest management, custom installations (fabric draping, floral arches, ceremony structures, overhead installations), and unlimited on-site coordination across multi-day wedding weekends. Reported starting price is $300,000 for a full weekend destination wedding, with an average of 500 hours invested per full-service engagement. The studio also offers a standalone Tablescape Design module and operates two sub-brands: Mae&Co Monthly (educational content platform) and Mae&Co Shop (curated e-commerce). The technology stack is design- and execution-led rather than software-led; vendor coordination, custom installation design, and on-site production are described as the technical differentiators, not AI or platform tooling.

Revenue is generated through professional-services fees, with pricing quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is exclusively direct: prospective HNW clients initiate contact via the website inquiry form or [email protected], with response within 1-3 business days. The company relies on portfolio-driven marketing through its main site, a dedicated lookbook, and earned media features in ELLE, Brides Magazine, Over the Moon, Flaunt Magazine, The Together Journal, and Green Wedding Shoes. Customer roster includes founders and executives from Aviator Nation, The RealReal, and Headway, plus Dallas Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger, indicating concentrated exposure to high-net-worth individuals across fashion, tech, sports, and entertainment verticals.
