We are a MN based wedding day of coordination business owned by two sisters who are here to help you celebrate your best day ever both feeling stress free and blissful! We began this small business in 2021 and have enjoyed our side gig ever since!

Katie and Jennifer were so helpful on the wedding day. It took one meeting and maybe 3 text messages to figure out the game plan for the day and they were the perfect addition to our day that I honestly didn’t know I needed. The small details of moving the guest book, cleaning up decor and running ceremony music made life so much easier and nobody had to worry about anything! From someone who works the event industry, these two you can tell have a passion to help others and know exactly how to help make your day special.

I have been a planner/coordinator and decorator for 13 years. I used to do weddings and parties as my side hussle but as of January, 2022, I have made this my full time business! I have several awesome ladies that work with me as well so you are in good hands!

I was VERY hesitant to book Amber and have her take over our wedding... I am a a bit of a control freak and I love a little DIY. Amber took all of my inspiration and made it a reality. She was so great to have the day of so my new husband and I could sit back and enjoy our day. She was there to take all of the questions and keep things organized. I would absolutely recommend booking her!

Ashley Lewis Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Darwin, MN

Thanks to divine intervention (*aka a super smart older sister), I decided to take a photography class in high school. Who knew that single class was going to drastically change my path. I pursued photography in college, along with getting my business degree, because I knew that I wanted to start a business that would allow me to be who I am and serve others in a way that honored that. Since then, I have photographed 80+ weddings, 100+ seniors and countless families. It has been such an incredible journey.

Ashley was so easy to works with. She was very flexible and responded quickly to any and all communication. We will forever cherish our beautiful wedding photos. My husband and I aren't very touchy-feely and he DOES NOT like the camera, Ashley made it fun and effortless to be ourselves. She posed us in ways that we looked and felt natural and comfortable for photos!

First of all, congratulations! Getting married is such an amazing time in your life -- It's my job to make sure your photos are just as amazing as you two are! I am Karie. The smile-loving, big dreamer, adventurous, go-getter gal behind the camera. For me, photography is a way to cherish some of life’s happiest moments. I work closely with you to create heartfelt keepsakes of your special day. I aim to capture all the sincere smiles of your wedding celebration.

Karie photographed our wedding in September of 2024 and I was absolutely blown away and impressed with how amazing the pictures turned out. Both she and her second shooter were an absolute pleasure to work with and were so professional throughout the day. Communication was easy and expectations were clear on both sides. I am so so thankful that I will have such beautiful photos to look back on and remember our wedding day. She really made the venue look like something out of this beautiful fantasy world or professional magazine.

Thousands of brides across the United States and Canada have trusted Something Borrowed Blooms to provide the perfect flowers for their wedding day. We offer brides the expensive peonies, delicate ranunculus, out-of-season anemones, and the ever-impossible-to-find-magnolia — all at a fraction of the cost.

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Something Borrowed Blooms for part of our ceremony and reception florals, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience! We chose the Jane collection floral meadows and added in some real colorful stems to match our theme—and the result was absolutely stunning. You would never know the base florals were faux! The entire process was incredibly seamless. Receiving, setting up, and returning the flowers was so much easier than I ever expected. Everything arrived beautifully packaged and ready to go, and it made decorating our space so stress-free. For any brides considering faux florals—do it! This was such an affordable, elegant, and easy option. I would highly, highly recommend Something Borrowed Blooms to anyone looking for gorgeous florals without the fuss.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.9

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Darwin, MN

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Flower Moxie completely exceeded my expectations in every way! I ordered their pastels package for my wedding and was blown away by how stunning the flowers were. The blooms were fresh, vibrant, and even more beautiful than I imagined—truly some of the healthiest flowers I’ve ever seen. I was initially curious (and a little nervous) about how the process would work, since I’d never used a service like this before. But from the very beginning, Maria and the Flower Moxie team were incredibly kind, accommodating, and truly went above and beyond. Maria walked me through every step with warmth and thoughtfulness, and made everything feel so easy and stress-free. They really knocked it out of the park. The flowers added so much magic to our day. I used them for our welcome sign, cake, bud vases, and to transform a faux white-and-green arch and floral meadow by adding real, colorful blooms—and the final result was breathtaking. So many guests complimented how beautiful everything looked. I cannot recommend Flower Moxie enough. They’re not just a flower company—they’re a dream team that helps make your vision come to life!

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price!
