TL;DR: If you're questioning a wedding planner. You found your person in Shelby. She will be your teammate and advocate. Let me start by saying 5 stars is not enough for Shelby. What she was able to do over the course of a few months and the day of our wedding, and even after, is no short than a miracle. My aunt said it best, "She was just meant to do this job", and it shines through every conversation, detail, and edge she was able to walk me back from. I contacted Shelby originally for a month of coordinator. Soon after, I realized even for a type A project manager, I was in over my head planning an Alabama wedding from Philadelphia, PA. She walked me through everything and that's when I said I need her on my team and I need her skills now for everything between today and the wedding day. The best decision I made through the process (debatably even more so than saying yes to my husband) was hiring Shelby. She made the transition from what I prepped and thought I had under control to the most magical day I could imagine. I hired her about 5 months before the wedding. She always made me a priority no matter the occasion or time. I genuinely had the best wedding planner and gained a friend along the way. I am not exaggerating when I say, I could not have done this without her.

Let's face it, every couple needs wedding planning help and traditional full-blown wedding planning is super expensive! At The Venlist, we're providing a modern way for busy couples to get wedding planning help at a price point that fits their budget from coast to coast.

Awarded Best of Zola
We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!

Raven and her team made my wedding day run seamlessly! I hired Raven for her month of coordinating. She is very professional, but still shows you her great personality when working with her. She listened to exactly what my husband and I wanted and gave her expertise and suggestions where needed. She always responded to emails and text efficiently. She completely took over all responsibilities a month before my wedding. As a very organized, involved and hands on bride, I felt confident handing everything over and trusting her with the remainder of the process after meeting with her. She worked well with all of my vendors and communicated with them in a timely manner. I did not know about any of the small hiccups that occurred on my wedding day with vendors. Everything was on schedule (which was very important to me). Her team, Kayla, Ashley, and Gabrielle were awesome! They made sure my family and I were taken care of and comfortable the entire day and evening! If I could go back, I would have hired Raven as a full wedding coordinator!!

Audrey was truly incredible from start to finish. She was there every step of the way, treating the wedding as if it were her own. She was responsive to every question, concern, and thought, and her attention to detail was unmatched. Audrey is thoughtful, creative, and exceptionally talented at what she does from helping figure out logistics to helping bring to life a vision that doesn’t even exist on Pinterest. She brought our vision to life and somehow made it even better than we could have imagined. Her organization and foresight were outstanding — she thought of things we didn’t even know existed!! Audrey was the reason we stayed sane throughout the entire planning process. Oh did I mention that our wedding was in beautiful Washington, and she planned it from all the way in Alabama! Our wedding was the best day of our lives, and we owe so much of that to her. She is truly beyond incredible, and we feel so lucky to now call her a friend. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Congratulations, you’re engaged! We are so honored to work with couples from all walks of life to create a day that is uniquely you. On your wedding day, you’ll have a team to advocate for you, be by your side and help you pull off a celebration that’s one to remember.

We hired Michelle Knutson for our November 2025 Palm Springs wedding and truly could not be happier with our experience. We had a fairly small event, so we went with the day-of-coordinator package. Michelle truly went above and beyond just the day-of coordinating. She coordinated a couple intros zooms, got in touch with our venue and all of our vendors beforehand and brought us solutions when we realized we were going to be rained on. The day of she was a straight shooter - direct and ran a tight ship. But she was also warm, friendly and upbeat. Her assistant even took care of my dog for me and made sure he was fed and walked! We are forever grateful to her and her team for making our day so special. 10/10 recommend!

Kristi was so great and allowed us to have a stress-free vacation! Because of her recommendations and guidance, we were able to bypass a very long immigration line at the airport.
