Meet Bon Temps

Bon Temps is co-led by Lindsey Kramer and Averi Guidry. Two women whose shared values, friendship, and creative chemistry brought the brand back to its roots. Together, they’ve redefined what modern wedding planning feels like: equal parts curated design, expert logistics, and genuine connection.

At Bon Temps, we believe in celebrating big and loving even bigger. Our philosophy is simple, the good times should roll effortlessly. We blend Southern soul with modern sophistication, crafting celebrations that feel as good as they look. From heartfelt details to flawless execution, we ensure your wedding tells your story, beautifully, authentically, and joyfully.

Because around here, love hard and play hard isn’t just our motto, it’s our way of life.

    Unfortunately, none of our services can be customized by taking anything away. We have set up our services to include the things that are needed to ensure the process goes as it is intended for it to go. If there are services you would like to add to a package, we can explore those options and see if a different package fits better for you.

  • Our motto is being personal, authentic, and supportive. We are not your cookie-cutter team of planners. We pride ourselves on our eccentric portfolio. We get to know who you truly are which in return allows us to plan based on your personalities, your wants, and needs, not just what we have done before that worked for someone else.

    Each couple is different, with a different love story. So each wedding will be different. Give us your traditional church ceremony and ballroom reception or your non-traditional outdoor wedding with a unique design, we truly cannot wait for either one!

  • Yes! We break down the full amount into 4 payments: At the time of booking, 9 months out, 3 months out, 1 month out.

    This will be adjusted based on the timeframe that is left to your wedding day.

  • Over the years, we've built strong relationships with top-tier Wedding Professionals in the wedding industry. You'll have access to the best photographers, florists, venues, and more, ensuring that we will find the perfect fit for your wedding, no matter the style.
