Awarded Best of Zola
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. Whenever I see a wedding couple looking for a planner or day or coordinator, I always recommend Elizabeth Bliss Events!

Christina was extremely organized, efficient, and communicative. We started communicating about a year prior to my wedding, and we had instant chemistry. She is so genuine, so caring, and has such a calming presence. As we got closer to the wedding, we had a few planning sessions, and wow, she is THOROUGH! I'm so thankful for that. She made sure we had everything in order, and connected with the other vendors so they knew to go to her for questions (instead of coming to me!!). The day before the wedding, she helped us run through the rehearsal. She even created an itinerary and a booklet that helped us and our families stay organized the day of the wedding. The day of the wedding is when she really shined! She was the point of contact for everyone (vendors, family members, etc.), she kept us on time, she finished decorating, and she gave us peace of mind. Her team went above and beyond! We are truly so thankful for Christina and her team! Because of them, we were able to be fully present on our wedding day, and not worry about a thing! On top of all of that, she is so fun to talk to, down to earth, and a fantastic person!!!

My husband and I hired Bailee as our day of coordinator and we cannot express how grateful and appreciative we are of her on our big day! In the beginning, we were very hesitant to hire a day of coordinator, we thought that we could handle it ourselves and with our venue coordinator. Although our venue coordinator was outstanding, we thought having an extra hand would be helpful. Our first initial contact with Bailee was inviting and comfortable. She was so kind and knowledgeable. We hired her for day of coordination but she went above and beyond that. She was so helpful with our timeline, asking questions that we would have never thought of to get us prepared, and making sure she was available for any questions we may have had. The day of the wedding, she was SO helpful. I had some last minute changes and last minute issues with the decor and she stepped up and made it all so perfect. She put the bride and groom first. I cannot express that enough. Never once did she seem overwhelmed, stressed, or flustered. Working with Bailee, we can tell she knows what she is doing and is passionate about the job. Our venue coordinator who has never worked with her, had nothing but great things to say about her as well. I have already recommended her to several friends. We are so grateful that she was part of our big day! You will not regret hiring her!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Johnna as our day of coordinator for our wedding and she was truly such an angel to work with. Her pricing is more than reasonable for the services she provides and she was always super quick to respond. She was so sweet, reassuring, and helpful through the entire process. Even in the months leading up to the wedding, she would reach out to check in and offered to handle any tasks or communication that I needed help with. She took the time to plan phone calls with me even when I just needed someone to listen to everything going on in my mind with the planning process. She took so much weight off my shoulders in the months leading up to the wedding. On the day of, we worked with Kat, Casey, and Anna and WOW. I was truly speechless at how incredible the whole team was. They took my vision and brought it to life so seamlessly! We had multiple snags in the morning, putting us behind in our timeline by about an hour. But the team of girls worked quickly and quietly behind the scenes to smooth everything out and get us back on track, without me even realizing. My florals were over an hour late and I didn’t even know it because they swooped in and got it all straightened out before anyone even mentioned it to me. They also handled all of the tear down and cleanup for us as well and had all of our items neatly packed up ready for us to take home. I seriously cannot say enough good things about Johnna and her team, I am so grateful to have had them be a part of our special day. Our wedding day was an absolute dream come true and it couldn’t have happened as smoothly as it did without the Save the Date team. If you’re looking for a planner or coordinator - HIRE JOHNNA. You will NOT be disappointed in the slightest!! Thank you SO much Johnna, Kat, Anna, and Casey!

That every couple deserves a day free from stress, filled with the moments that matter most. It's not just about creating a beautiful events but honoring your love.

Brianne was AMAZING to work with! We were planning our wedding remotely (we live in TX and married in IL where I grew up) and we genuinely could not have pulled it off without her. She was constantly on the ball. If I texted her with a question or problem she was working on solutions within the hour, such as working with our dream caterer to ensure that we could have them at our wedding. Brianne took on extra work at the last minute to ensure all our details came together, including making our place cards so we did not have to, and driving by our hotel the morning of to pick up items that needed to be transported to the venue. She was definitely on us about getting things done in the leadup to the wedding (we needed this, so this was helpful!) but on the day of the wedding she truly made it so we were not personally stressing about anything. All our vendors who had worked with Brianne previously were excited to be working with her again, which tells you how respected she is in this area. We highly recommend hiring Brianne to help plan your wedding!

  • Serves Ely, 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.

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.

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!!!

What really stood out was how much the other vendors and crews respected her—they all mentioned how much they loved working with her, which spoke volumes about her professionalism. She is a Coordinator who will keep you calm and make your wedding run perfectly, Megan is your person.

Shaded Spruce Events is an award winning wedding and event planning firm in Minnesota. We're a woman owned company dedicated to planning and executing stunning events. Planning a wedding is an adventure and we strive to be your travel partner along the way. ​

Working with Shaded Spruce Events was an absolute joy! As a younger bride, I was initially unsure about hiring a wedding planner, but I’m so glad I did. Their expertise was vital in ensuring our day went off without a hitch. From managing the timeline to handling setup and offering emotional support through unexpected weather changes, Shaded Spruce Events helped us create the perfect brunch wedding. My husband and I also took advantage of their rental services and signage design/printing, which saved us so much time and effort. It truly took a huge weight off our shoulders. If you’re planning a wedding with unique elements, I highly recommend Shaded Spruce Events. Their professionalism and attention to detail allow you to enjoy your day stress-free!
