I cannot say enough incredible things about Erin. Above and beyond does not begin to cover it! Look no further for any of your wedding planning needs. We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on. Erin felt more like a friend than a coordinator, and we are so happy we got to spend our special day with her. Our day went so smoothly from start to finish, and we know this is due to Erin's impeccable attention to detail. If you are looking to have an incredible day with a crisp timeline and no stress - Erin is your gal!

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!

Blue Belles Weddings was an absolute dream to work with! Hannah's communication style was fast, thoughtful, validating and comforting - she was extremely helpful every step of the way. The quality of her work and value was unparalleled, as she went above and beyond, dotting every i and crossing every t. We were never worried about passing anything off to Hannah. When we had to change our entire wedding venue just 10 days before the date, Hannah helped us deal with the fallout of the previous venue, found us a new one, and planned basically an entire new wedding in less than two weeks. She also is just the best person in general. She is so funny and genuinely became our friend through the entire process, helping to keep us calm and answer any question we had. I often felt like I had dumb questions or needed validation on something we were feeling crazy about, and Hannah was always there to make us feel better. We truly don't know what we would have done without her, especially with our extreme last minute wedding change. We are beyond grateful and lucky to have a friend in Hannah now!

Candidly, I was hesitant on hiring an event coordinator, thinking I could do it all myself (SO wrong). Looking back, I can confidently say that this was the BEST use of my wedding budget. Planning a wedding is stressful. Having someone I could trust to string together all the tiny details and make our day perfect was a huge weight off my shoulders. Noelle asked all the right questions to ensure our day was exactly as we envisioned. Knowing she was on top of it all, we were able to focus on what matters most: enjoying our engagement and celebrating starting our lives together. The day was flawless. Noelle was fantastic to work with and I’d recommend her 1000x over.

When I first started to plan our wedding I was not sure I needed a wedding coordinator but boy was I wrong! Having Lyss for our big day was a game changer. She handled so much- from helping keeping every timeline on track, to setting up decor, to steaming dresses and providing Bobby pins to bridesmaids, my niece ripped her dress and she pulls out a sewing kit and helps fix it, she even saved me with deodorant at one point throughout the day. Another thing I loved is that she took pictures behind the scenes so the next morning when I woke up I had pictures to look back on instead of waiting weeks for my photographers photos. She helped my family with clean up at the end of the night too. She never missed a beat and made it where myself and my family members weren’t running around completing tasks and could actually enjoy the day. She is professional, communicative, kind, and someone you can trust on one of the biggest days of your life. Would recommend her a million times!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I got married at Secrets Akumal in Riviera Maya, Mexico, in May 2025. I am being 100% honest when I say I could not have done it without Shanna and her team!! They were absolutely incredible. We had so many questions about the process, and they answered every single one with so much knowledge and experience. They helped us plan all of our travel, events of the week, day of timeline, and so much more. Shanna was on site the day of our wedding and was an immense help in making sure everything ran smoothly (and keeping my nerves at bay). I will forever be SO grateful and appreciative of Shanna and the rest of the WorldWide Travel Team.
