why banks & leaf?

In the spirit of our favorite local artisans, your event is made from scratch, just for you.

This unique approach allows us to transform your vision into a wondrous reality that will leave a lasting impression on your guests.

We go above and beyond to build a trusting relationship with you in the time leading up to your wedding, corporate event, holiday party, or special occasion — freeing up your time so you can focus on your life instead of complex details.

And because we’re a boutique planning company, you’ll enjoy enhanced personal service and the confidence of knowing you’re working with an accomplished, battle-tested planner.

we'll connect you to the TOP vendors in your budget

Co-founders Amber Fairbanks and Gabby Greenleaf bring your event to life with a combined 15+ years of event design, coordination, and budgeting — as well as a deep knowledge of Colorado’s best venues, photographers, musicians, caterers, stationery, and more. 

We are detail-obsessed stylists, inspired collaborators, and “let me handle this” allies when you need us most. No matter where you are in the planning process.

We know these are supposed to be #fridayintroductions but just couldn’t wait all week to post this gorg photo of Gabby shot by the lovely @carriekingphotographer. This company is 100% a partnership and we really couldn’t do it without this gem right here. She’s our master of style. The fastest email writer on the planet. A true visionary spotting the coming trends well before they are indeed, a trend. Lover of dessert and Italian food. And one badass wedding planner. The “Leaf” 🌿 of Banks & Leaf. We adore this #bossbabe . | @bridalturban @zara

Bringing people together is a main focus of what we do. A beautifully set table is more than just something pretty to look at. It is a way to show your guests that you care about their experience and the memories they are making. Some of the best moments are shared around a table, nourishing your bodies and spoon feeding your mind the lovely conversations had by the people around you. This serene but playful setting was put together by our girl @yonder_house and enjoyed by some of our very favorites @tarabieleckiphotography @lizweg @wildflowercakes @barerootflora @carriekingphotographer | #restoreyoursoul #elevatedgatherings #friendors #happinessisonlyrealwhenshared | Photographer @carriekingphotographer

During these times of momentum it’s easy to lose track of yourself. We shouldn’t forget that wellness must be an element in life we continuously bring back into focus. Stay mindful of your body & wellbeing even in the busiest of times. Stay centered. Grounded. Come back to the simplicity and beauty around you. Oh, and never leave the house without a basket full of fresh flowers 😉 🌸#banksandleaflove #restoreyoursoul #weddingseason | Photographer @lauramurray | Flowers @keepfloral | Model @nativalaw

It’s that time of year when all the little stories are getting pieced together. Each thoughtful design element comes to fruition and gives a glimpse into the couple’s relationship. Seeing this come together for them on wedding day is one of our favorite parts of our job and one we couldn’t do it without our stellar team of vendors at each and every wedding. Thank you couples, for sharing your stories with us. And thank you team for helping us bring them to life. ✨#banksandleaflove #elevated-gatherings #weddingdetails | Storytellers || Photographer @lauramurray | Stationery @szpaperie | Floral @plumsageflowers

Join us. ✨We have been loving hard on our recent retreat with some incredible wedding professionals. It’s amazing to see what comes from bringing a group of people together who genuinely love what they do into a beautiful environment to feel empowered, loved, pampered, and supported. We think everyone should get an opportunity to feel that sense of community far and wide. A chance to gain meaningful relationships, participate in creative moments, and take time throughly to refresh. We feel inspired. Who’s in? Leave a comment or message us with your email and we will add you to the list with details for the next adventure ✨ #restoreyoursoul #banksandleaflove #communityovercompetition :: Photographer | Thank you to the lovely @carriekingphotographer for making us feel beautiful!
