“Connor was great to work with! She was helpful, fun, and did everything we asked of her. Her different packages to choose from and add on services, such as coming to our rehearsal, made it easy to get the specific services we needed that fit within our budget. She was also great at getting our 4 year old flower girl and 5 year old ring bearer to pay attention and understand what they were to do. She made our big day so easy so that we could just enjoy it. Would definitely recommend!”

“I'm leaving this review a few months after our wedding, and I can't remember the name of the main person who was our wedding "helper," which is unfortunate because she did a stellar job! The pre-wedding stuff was done with Christina, and like another reviewer said, she was VERY thorough and knowledgeable; she made sure nothing was missed, and she made our "would-have-been-drab" wedding a bit more elegant. She worked around our pre-wedding mishaps, and on the day of, she and our other wedding coordinator did their best to make sure things went the way we wanted them to go; they kept everything in order but made a point of giving us space. There were some things that happened around wedding time that were really disheartening and/or stressful, but LoveLee Occasions staff went out of their way to make our day feel like a special occasion and to make sure everyone had a good time. THANKYOU, Christina and co. (sorry I can't remember the other person's name!!!)!”

I'm Jenna, the heart behind Perfectly Paired Planner, where every love story is celebrated with creativity, care, and a little bit of magic. I pour my heart into every wedding, thoughtfully weaving together each detail to create a day that feels effortless, meaningful, and uniquely yours. From the first spark of inspiration to the final farewell, I'm dedicated to ensuring your celebration is filled with joy, beauty, and unforgettable moments while you simply soak it all in.

“Jenna goes hard for her people! I absolutely adore her. I swear she could read my mind! Leading up to my wedding day, she was checking in, encouraging. Making sure all vendors were on the same page. Helping me find vendors and services if I needed. Could answer things like, "idk how to buy alcohol for 155 people! Tell me what to do!" She was a great advocate with the DJ company so we could get the music and announcements we wanted. The day of our wedding, she made sure we were all flawless. Fixing little things here and there. All the vendors had the same timeline that came from her so everyone could work together seamlessly. Her and her helper flipped the room between ceremony and reception so it could be set up how I wanted it and I didn't have to compromise for time and help. Everything just ran more smooth because she was on top of everything! She even won over my mother which is NOT an easy thing to do, especially when her baby is getting married! At the end of the night, they helped undo, clean up, and organize everything just the way we'd asked and it was SUCH a big help. She always has a great attitude even when 1 million things are going on and is a great friend when needed. She definitely helped me not freak out when things got stressful or overwhelming.”

Say "I do" to stress-free, stylish weddings and events with As You Wish: your modern-day fairy godmothers of event coordination and wedding planning. From setup and takedown to vendor wrangling, we transform chaos into calm and dreams into down-the-aisle realities through expert party planning.

“Hire As You Wish Wedding Coordination. It’s that simple. I wanted to create my vision and save on wedding decor, so I DIYed a lot of the details for our wedding, including signage, centerpieces, tablescapes, and accent tables. While it was worth it, it also meant there were A LOT of details that needed to be organized, set up, finalized, and executed on our wedding day. Morgan took all of it on and brought my vision to life perfectly even the things I hadn’t planned because I had simply given up! From the very beginning, Morgan’s communication with us and all of our vendors was seamless. She kept us on schedule, consistently checked in, and handled every detail so effortlessly that we were able to truly enjoy our wedding day without stress. I had heard so many horror stories from friends and family about things going wrong on their wedding days, but I can honestly say I felt absolutely no panic, no need to step in, and no need to worry about anything. Morgan and her team handled EVERYTHING from picking up linens and arranging all of our decor, to coordinating ceremony timing, keeping vendors on track, grabbing late-night Taco Bell, and taking everything down at the end of the night. There was never a moment where I questioned whether something was being handled. I knew we were in the best hands. Her communication, work ethic, attention to detail, and personality are truly incredible. My husband and I felt completely confident in Morgan, and that peace of mind was priceless. I cannot thank Morgan and her team enough for helping make our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be. If you’re looking for someone who will take your vision, bring it to life, handle all the little details, and make your wedding day genuinely stress-free, hire Morgan. You will not regret it!”

“I worked with Lauren on a wedding in Colorado a few years ago and I know the bride LOVED working directly with her. The bride didn't have to worry about a thing the day of which was extremely helpful since it was a destination wedding and everyone was from out of state. Lauren was friendly, meticulous, detail-oriented, and ultimately a pleasure to work with. I am a photographer and spend the entire day with the wedding couple and it was so great to see the bride not have to worry about a thing the day of because she knew Lauren had it handled already. I have also attended a styled wedding photoshoot that Lauren and Mercedes hosted this year and that was also amazing! I was blown away by the details and overall theme to it and it made for some fantastic photos to add to my portfolio.

It was that enthusiasm and drive we needed to make sure everything went according to plan. Because of their passion, our wedding was amazing. We didn't have to worry about anything being out of place or going wrong.

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.”

“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!!!”

As a bride and groom, there is no greater gift than being able to relax and trust that everything is under control. Thanks to them, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re looking for a coordinator who is organized, responsive, compassionate, and absolutely incredible at what she does, look no further. Thank you for helping create one of the most beautiful and memorable days of our lives. We couldn’t have done it without you! — Adrian & Ahtajuana ️”

“We shopped around a bit for a planner before landing on McKayla and her team over at Shaded Spruce Events. Even though we only booked the partial planning package, it felt as if we had a full planner on our side. McKayla made an effort to meet us on our level and elevate ALL of our ideas into a reality. McKayla took most of the logistical planning out of our hands, which allowed us to focus on the fun things. She also helped us settle on and refine the design of the event, and she gave really great ideas that we probably wouldn't have though of on our own. Her recommendations for vendors was also super helpful, and we were very pleased with the ones that we booked. She quickly figured out what we were looking for and how we operated and catered the planning to fit what we needed. With our package, we were also able to utilize a lot of additional decor and services that Shaded Spruce provides, which really added to the overall design of the event. On the big day, we didn't see much of McKayla and her team beyond what was needed, but we knew they were working hard to make the day perfect because the day went perfectly from our perspective! Not only did the event look perfect, we were also extremely satisfied with McKayla and her team's communication. We were always in the loop about what we needed to do and where we needed to be without it feeling overwhelming. At the end of the night, she handled the organization of the tear down, which allowed for the two of us to head out without having to worry about it. Overall, working with McKayla and her team was a true pleasure. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is even thinking of getting a planner. Thank you for the hard work McKayla and Shaded Spruce Events!”
