OUR ORIGINAL WEDDING PLANNER UNFORTUNATELY HAD TO BACK OUT JUST I WEEK BEFORE OUR BIG DAY. WE WERE DESPERATELY SEARCHING FOR SOMEONE TO HELP US ON A BUDGET AND SO LAST MINUTE AND WE ARE SO THANKFUL THAT CONNOR STEPPED UP! SHE WAS ABLE TO MEET WITH US BEFOREHAND AND ORGANIZE EVERYTHING FROM TIMELINE, VENDORS, DECORATIONS, AND DETAILS I HADN'T EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT! SHE ALSO CAME TO HELP US DURING OUR REHEARSAL DINNER TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING RAN SMOOTHLY. ON THE WEDDING DAY. CONNOR WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND MADE SURE TO PRIORITIES MY WANTS FOR THE DAY OVER EVERYBODY ELSE! ONE OF MY PRIORITIES WAS THAT GUESTS DID NOT ENTER THE VENUE BEFORE A CERTAIN TIME, AND WHEN GUESTS STARTED SHOWING UP EARLY CONNOR RESPECTFULLY TOLD THEM TO WAIT OUTSIDE AS SHE KNEW THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME. SHE ALSO CONTINUALLY UPDATED ME THROUGHOUT THE GETTING READY PROCESS WITH HOW THE DECORATIONS WERE LOOKING, ASKED ME QUESTIONS ABOUT PREFERENCES, AND MADE SURE I ALSO HAD EVERYTHING I NEEDED! THE REST OF THE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION WENT INCREDIBLY SMOOTH AND SHE WAS QUICK TO HELP TEAR DOWN THE VENUE AND RETURN ALL THE DECORATIONS TO THEIR PROPER PLACE. SO THANKFUL FOR HER HELP AND WOULD ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE

Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Altoona, IA for additional fees

House of Elleon is a luxury white-glove wedding and event planning & design studio founded by Noelle Cappuzzo, specializing in refined, editorial celebrations with an emotional core. Each event is a carefully curated experience where the client’s vision is executed with precision, elevated through thoughtful design, and brought to life with seamless flow. With a focus on enhancing the overall experience—not just the aesthetic—Noelle blends creative direction with logistical mastery so every moment feels effortless, intentional, and distinctly personal. Events are expertly produced, emotionally resonant, and elevated from start to finish.

I genuinely do not even know where to begin when it comes to Noelle because there are not enough words to explain how incredible she is. From the VERY beginning of my wedding planning process over a year ago, she handled absolutely everything and more. Any thought, question, idea, concern, crash out, or micromanaging moment I had (and trust me… there were MANY), I could text or call her at literally any time, and she was always there. Not once did she ever make me feel annoying, dramatic, or “too much.” Instead, she made me feel heard, understood, supported, and excited every single step of the way. What makes Noelle so special is that she doesn’t just “plan weddings.” She genuinely takes your vision and transforms it into something bigger and more beautiful than you could have even imagined for yourself. The ideas I had in my head for my wedding somehow came to life TIMES TEN. Every tiny detail was perfected. She thought of things before I even had to ask. She guided me through every decision while still making me feel like the wedding truly reflected me and my husband. And the professionalism? Insane. The organization? Insane. The patience? Saint level. She worked with my budget and constantly gave me options to still achieve the luxury, elegant look I wanted without making me feel pressured to spend beyond my means. She found almost all of my vendors, and every single one of them was phenomenal. The amount of compliments I still receive from guests weeks and months later about how beautiful, organized, and seamless my wedding was honestly speaks for itself. But what REALLY blew me away was wedding day itself. When I tell you I did not have a single worry in the world, I mean it. Noelle and her team handled EVERYTHING. She was genuinely a rockstar from beginning to end. At one point she literally did my late night McDonald’s run herself while her assistants stayed behind making sure me, my bridal party, and my family had everything we needed. Who does that?! That level of care is so rare. She treated my wedding like it was just as important to her as it was to me. Not only did she become my wedding planner, but over this past year she truly became someone so special to me and my family. My family and friends could not stop complimenting her professionalism, kindness, work ethic, and calming presence. I literally had my mom’s friends texting me asking for her information because they were so blown away by her. Noelle made wedding planning FUN. She made it exciting instead of stressful. Honestly, she makes me want to plan another wedding tomorrow just to work with her again. I’m truly going to miss our hours-long meetings spent perfecting every little detail because it all paid off in the most unbelievable way. I can confidently say my wedding would NOT have been what it was without her. She gave me the wedding of my dreams and more, and I will forever be grateful that I trusted her to guide me through one of the biggest moments of my life. I truly believe one day I’ll see her planning celebrity weddings because her talent is genuinely on that level. Thank you for everything, Noelle. I would choose you over and over and over again.

We had an unfortunate bump in the road when the venue let go of the manager we were working with, but Steph took charge and contacted our other vendors to ensure the day went off without a hitch, and she delivered!

From the very beginning, Jen brought a sense of calm and confidence to our wedding planning process. While she was technically our day-of coordinator, she jumped in to support us a full month before the wedding — helping with logistics, vendor coordination, and keeping everything organized and on track. On the big day, she was so attentive, perceptive, and incredibly grounded. She understood the nuances of our family dynamics without needing much direction and handled every moment with grace. I was completely comfortable handing off all vendor communication to her, which allowed me to truly enjoy the day. She listened carefully, wrote things down, and followed through — often within minutes. Her assistants were kind, proactive, and professional, which only added to the sense of trust and ease. Everything felt seamless and intentional. Her communication was clear and efficient, and I genuinely appreciated her adaptability, warmth, and thoughtful attention to all the details — even the ones I didn’t know I needed help with. She didn’t just help us execute a timeline — she helped bring our vision to life. We couldn't imagine our day without her.

Bailee was our wedding bestie from our very first conversation.

Our wedding flowed seamlessly, earning us endless compliments—a direct result of Bailee’s elite planning and timeline skills. She was everywhere I needed her to be, whether assisting during photos or picking up lunch for the bridal party.

Awarded Best of Zola
This review is far overdue but so unbelievably deserved. I will start by saying that my husband and I got married in March of 2025. Engaged in September of 2021. We always wanted to have a wedding but having had a baby in 2023, the amount of planning and money that went into it all just kept making us push things back. There was a time where we weren’t sure if we would ever actually have the wedding we dreamed of or if we would just book an appointment at the courthouse and call it a day. I never even considered hiring a wedding planner, just another added cost, right? WRONG. Cause girl, let me tell you, Bri and Karin are the ONLY reason our dreams of a real wedding turned into a reality. We provided them with a budget and some ideas of what we thought we might like and what they came up with was truly amazing. Options galore and nothing my husband nor I would have ever even thought of. They found us a venue that didn’t break the bank and fit us perfectly. The food was delicious, the decor was beautiful and they made sure everything went to plan, on time as scheduled, the day of. ZERO stress on me or my husband allowing us to truly be present and focus on soaking up everything and everyone on a day that goes by in the blink of an eye. All for less than what we thought we would have to spend! They are sweet, they are creative, they are punctual, they are responsive, they are attentive, they listen, they CARE, their attention to detail is out of this world, they are FUN and it is evident they truly love what they do. The best decision we could have ever made was hiring them to plan our wedding. We are forever grateful for the time, effort and love they poured into our special day. If you’re overwhelmed by all of the choices and decisions out there that go into your wedding like we were, do yourself a favor and CALL THEM!!! Thank you Bri and Karin!!! We love you!!!
