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.

Next up in our duo! This is “Leaf” or better known as, Gabby. Give this girl a cup of tea, chocolate croissant, and a classic novel and she’s golden. If there is any new fashion trend you’ve started eyeing, she wore it 6 months ago and has moved on 😂 (but seriously). While always professional, she also becomes so close to her clients, learns their personalities, and really listens to what they are dreaming of. She always wants to make sure the vendors/artists we work with in our community feel taken care of, loved, and supported. And time with her family is valued and held at top priority. Not sure what our team would do without this powerhouse beauty, but we are so very lucky to have her by our side. | Photographer @clancey #banksandleaflove #bossbabe #fridayintroductions

There are two of us. Banks & Leaf is a partnership made of two wedding planners, designers, besties, chocolate lovers, and tea drinkers. But here are some individual tidbits about each of us. First, this is “Banks” or better known as, Amber. The way to my heart is with a cozy candle-lit delicious dinner, the best glass of wine, a good dance party, and all the things from Anthropologie. I adore my clients and finding beautiful ways to pull their story into a wedding design. I have the utmost respect and admiration for the vendors I work with and find them to be some of the most beautiful people I know. And my boys, husband & 4 year old son, are the apple of my eye and butter to my bread. Also, if you shake my hand upon meeting, I am secretly wanting to hug you but may wait until saying goodbye or our next meeting to invade your personal space. Couldn’t love being the other half of this company more or the woman, Gabby, I get to be on this entrepreneur lady boss life with. | Photographer friendor @clancey #banksandleaflove #christmasmood #fridayintroductions #exceptitsnotfriday
