Awarded Best of Zola
Destify had great communication and helped facilitate finding which resorts we could use. They found something that was in our price range and exactly where we wanted it to be. The resort we ended up using was fantastic at helping coordinate the whole wedding and took a lot of pressure off planning the wedding. Maybe I’m biased but honestly, it was the most fun wedding I’ve ever been to.

Awarded Best of Zola
There was some confusion around the process of actually getting assigned a day-of coordinator due to lack of communication, which added some stress around the 3-week mark. Once we had that sorted out and we were actually paired with our coordinator, everything went super smoothly and we were extremely happy with the service we received. We were on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator and ultimately it was the best decision we could've made. Kumbah was incredible and our wedding would've been a wreck without her!

I could not recommend Hannah enough. working with her for our wedding felt like having a friend, an extra brain, an extra set of hands and some extra sanity for the entire process. she was very insightful on decor, family dynamics, cohesiveness, anticipating needs, being mindful of cost. it really felt like she shared in our joy and had our best interest in mind. She brought Ellie alongside her for the day of coordination and Ellie was just as excellent. I could not imagine the process without the help and care and support of Hannah. we are so happy!

Hello there! My name is JayLynn. I am a romantic at heart, a lover of LOVE and a collector of daydreams. My journey in this one of a kind industry started a decade ago. I have experience as a bridal and wedding gown consultant, in the cosmetic and jewelry industry, and as a bridal model. My versatile background empowers me to be a knowledgeable resource and to add value to my clients experience through all stages of the planning process. I am a licensed, certified and insured event planner with coordination experience across all industries- Weddings have just captured my heart!

Awarded Best of Zola
There are so many words to describe the love we gained for Jaylynn during our wedding planning process. I remember booking a phone call with her two days after getting engaged and then going on a 1.5-year wedding planning journey. She helped us hand-select all our vendor team, which made our day so seamless and special! In addition, I had so many questions due to a bridal party out of state, where Jaylynn answered everyone promptly, even the midnight ones!! I am superrr type A and very much a planner, but when I tell you that, you may think you can nail down every detail, but there is so much logistics that goes into a wedding. Having a wedding planner was the best thing we could have ever done. Jaylynn brought it all to life and organized everything to have such seamless transitions. On our wedding, she had me lost for words on how well she listened to our vision and executed it beautifully. I will be using her for future event planning and highly recommend Weddings By Jay to anyone for their special day. You won't regret it!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Chrissy, as our Day of Coordinator, and overall, the experience was positive. She was incredibly nice and helpful, especially when it came to managing last-minute details. Chrissy stepped in seamlessly to take over everything I spent a year planning and handling unexpected changes, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. However, one area of improvement would be the level of attention to some of our must-have moments. We would highly suggest requesting a second announcement for the cake cutting, as there was so much cake left over from a 4-tier cake and guests wanted to take some with them. Additionally, we felt that we didn’t get as much exposure or focus as we had hoped compared to other couples, other than a picture of the blank balcony, but Chrissy was still able to help. Despite these minor issues, Chrissy was professional, attentive, spunky, and genuinely committed to making our day special. We appreciate the effort and dedication put into the day of coordinating our wedding, especially since it was in the Panhandle.

Denise and her team were such a pleasure to work with! As a photographer I’m able to almost go on autopilot when working with Marryment because I know they are on top of every small detail! From the flatlay, to the dress, the fine details of the timeline, etc. This might be an overstatement, but it also seems that Marryment has a huge following from word of mouth and not from a bunch of mindless advertising. That tells me one thing that is most important for any planner to have with couples…Trust! Every couple knows undoubtedly that their day is in great hands with Marryment!

Imagine Thanksgiving. You're prepping the turkey, trying to find the fancy bowls, answering 1,000 questions from your fiance. Then the doorbell rings - you're letting in guests, taking their coats, trying to stop the dog from running out the door. Then SHOOT, the TURKEY! You sit down for dinner exhausted, you have one glass of wine, and then it's time to clean it all up. You realize you didn't even get to talk to your mom, or your brother you rarely see. Your wedding day shouldn't be like Thanksgiving. You should be able to enjoy every single second. With Complete, you CAN!

Complete Weddings Events St. Louis made our wedding day feel effortless, even though we know how much work was happening behind the scenes. From start to finish, they communicated with us in a way that felt personal and fun, while also being incredibly thorough about every detail. On the day of, our coordinator wrangled so much to keep everything running smoothly and the staff weren't afraid to go with the flow when we needed them to. One of our favorite moments was watching our videographer take such good care of us—he even carried my plate at dinner so I could enjoy the moment without worrying about logistics. Their attention to detail and great vibes made our day really special, and we felt so supported the entire time. We'd recommend them in a heartbeat to any couple planning a wedding in St. Louis. The photographers and videographer were so fun when we were off doing our couple photos. The DJ and Photo Booth made the reception so much fun. It was such a great day! (The photo is one I snagged when the groomsmen were getting photos taken, they used the space super well!)

I cannot recommend Gina enough! She was so on top of everything. She regularly checked in with us and made sure we were on schedule for an entire year leading up to our wedding, and I oftentimes forgot she had clients other than us because she was so attentive. Any time there was a problem with a vendor, Gina was swooping in to save the day. She got us upgrades with our hotel and truly had our best interest in mind throughout this entire process. I cannot imagine planning a wedding without her, she was such a huge help. I remember as I was arm and arm with my father, about to walk down the aisle I heard a baby start screaming (despite instructing guests that this was a child-free wedding). It was my turn to walk and I said, "Gina wait! there's a baby crying" and I'll never forget, she said "Don't worry, I put it in the elevator! You're good!" (with it's parent of course lol) One of the best decisions I made for my wedding was choosing Lucid events.

Need errands ran that day we have you covered. We have no time caps.

Awarded Best of Zola
We used beautiful Crazy, specifically Connie as our wedding coordinator/planner through the entire process. It was very early on in our 12 months of planning, that we knew we needed to have a coordinator. My wife is very Type A. And I knew we needed to find somebody who could also match that level of detail and structure. Connie exceeded our expectations. We had many meetings during the year of planning, even some where she was sick and still willing to get on a call with us. She always came to every meeting prepared and ready to go over every little detail. It provided myself and my wife a lot of ease because we knew that Connie had it. Everything was laid out in a document very easy for us to reference. Every inspo picture, every color choice, every vendor, and every moment in the timeline all laid out very easy to see. During the planning phase, she was fantastic! Then the day of our wedding arrived. A day that has a tendency to be filled with some stress and anxiety before the wedding even starts, but me, I had none. I was marrying my best friend, and I knew that the wedding was going to go perfectly smooth because Connie was there. She took care of setting everything up, communicating with vendors, having drinks ready for us as soon as we entered the reception, and even going as far as making our plates of food. Before the event started, she came up to me and immediately asked if I needed anything, asked how I was feeling, and told me if there was anything I needed to let her know. She also told me, that we were her third event of the weekend, and she hadn’t slept from the event the night before, because they had to get in the car and drive a few hours to us. But you couldn’t even tell. Her dedication, her commitment to the couple, and the attention to detail far exceeded our expectations. She helped deliver what is now one of the most magical days in both of our lives. If you’re looking for anybody to help out with your wedding, to make your day even more special and to hopefully take some stress off of you, I cannot recommend enough beautiful Crazy, specifically Connie!

Knowing that no couple is the same, we cater to each unique vision and inspiration that they have to conceptualize all the details in order to make their dream wedding a reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Joyfully Co was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were an absolute pleasure to work with—thoughtful, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. I had already secured most of my vendors when I reached out to them, and instead of trying to upsell me, they kindly recommended a more tailored package that better fit my needs and budget. That level of honesty and care really set the tone for the rest of our experience. Every meeting with them was encouraging and reassuring—I felt completely safe and supported in their hands. Having been a bridesmaid in weddings that left me physically and emotionally drained, my biggest goal for my own wedding was to feel calm and stress-free. Thanks to Joyfully Co, I actually got to *enjoy* my wedding day—and everything came together beautifully. We received so many compliments, and best of all, my husband and I were able to leave by 9:30 p.m. while their team took care of all the cleanup. It was such a gift. One of the things I appreciated most was how seamlessly they coordinated with all my vendors—many of whom they had worked with before. I never once worried that someone wouldn't show up or that something would fall through the cracks. As a Korean American, I also want to highlight how thoughtful they were in understanding and incorporating cultural details. They kept everything on schedule and consistently communicated with the bridal party throughout the day, which made a huge difference. The planning tools they provided were lifesavers. Their premade spreadsheets included everything: seating charts, tipping guides, vendor contact lists, timelines, packing lists—you name it. During our planning meetings, they reviewed the timeline well in advance and brought a calm confidence that really helped put me at ease. We also opted for the design package, which was such a game changer. While I could have tried to handle decor myself, having someone bring the vision to life—and then take it all down afterward—saved me an incredible amount of time and energy. They say you should feel like the guest of honor at your own wedding, and that’s exactly how my husband and I felt. Even more importantly, our loved ones were also able to relax and enjoy the day without worrying about logistics. I’ll always be grateful for Joyfully Co and can’t recommend them enough to other brides. They are truly a gift, and I’m cheering them on always!

Awarded Best of Zola
Simply Elegant Group was by far my favorite vendor! Every single person we talked to from Lindsay Mackey, their amazing manger and our first contact to the hotel-block assistant was a joy to work with, communicative and helpful. The workbook, spreadsheets, and connections with other coordinators and vendors made the whole wedding planning process more enjoyable and streamlined. We chose the Day of Coordination and are very grateful to have had Hanh as our wedding coordinator! Hanh is worth her weight in gold! With Day of Coordination we received not only ten hours of custom coordination from the wonderfully efficient and empathic Hanh, we also had the help of her assistant. This was perfect because someone was by my and my husband’s throughout the day. I loved that with SEG we had a whole team of magnifically organized, thorough and compassionate individuals to support us in executing our dream wedding. Once we had submitted our information Lindsay contacted us to go over all of the things included in wedding planning. She created a rough draft of our day of timeline and gave us access to our Wedding Workbook. They have templates for everything you will need for organizing your wedding and making sure you do not miss out on important, but often overlooked details. Two months before our wedding date we were connected with Hanh. From our first meeting throughout the whole time before the wedding and for the duration of our wedding itself Hanh was both our wedding angel and ninja rolled all into one. I had done a lot of the initial setting up vendors, but as soon as she could she took over as my contact person. This meant the vendors had to email/reach out to Hanh and left me feeling like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. From this point on I started to enjoy wedding planning.I love that she reached out to not only myself, but included my now husband and daughter in on a meeting. If there were any hiccups leading up to the wedding I did not know until they were already handled. On our wedding day, everything went smoothly for my husband and I and our family.Again if there were any mishaps my husband and I were oblivious of them and we had the best wedding ever! Hanh was ready for anything, made sure we were treated like royalty and also took some amazing pictures! Thank you to Hanh and Simply Elegant Group for making our dream wedding come true!

Wow! There truly aren’t enough words to describe how thankful we are to have had Kristen and her team coordinate our wedding a few weeks ago. From beginning to end she was available, always on time with meetings and added her own creative ideas/tips from her experience and genuine guidance. She was such a great help for myself, a DIY bride, be more organized and less stressed with the entire process. I can definitely say our wedding day would not have gone as smoothly or been more beautiful without Kristen and her team. I remember them being right there when I had a question or was simply just looking around taking everything in. Seeing her “thumbs up” from across the room made me smile and thank the universe that we chose her to be our coordinator. She felt more like my friend helping us navigate one of the best days of our lives. I would recommend her to anyone! Thank you again Kristen for all your time and effort into helping plan our wedding day. It is a day that I will never forget and will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Natalie and Hector were truly a dream come true! Natalie helped the day run so smoothly and everything was so perfect and well organized. She was very communicative and on point leading up to the day. She set up and organized everything exactly as I requested. Natalie and Hector were so sweet and accommodating. The content creation package was great and exactly what my husband and I wanted. Since we didn't want a videographer, the content creation was perfect for us- To capture the day and have small clips for memories without the expensive cost. The photo booth was so cute and our guests loved it. Very nice camera with video, boomerang, and photo options for the guests to select with a nice backdrop setup. Overall they were a dream team and also so affordable! Would highly recommend for all brides! Thank you Natalie and Hector for everything! 33

Hi! My name is Allie Gee and I am the owner of OMGee Events. Since we will be spending a lot of time talking and getting to know each other, I thought I would start by sharing some info about me: I'm a retired professional dancer & current dance teacher. I also modeled & have walked in NYBFW. I'm came out as queer later in life & have been loving every minute of it. I love dyeing my hair different colors. My favorite genres of music are disco, funk, & pop music. My spouse & I love to travel & have visited 9 countries so far. There's no such thing as too many house plants. I have a cat (Filly) & a dog (Finn). I can't wait to get to know you!

If I could leave O.M.Gee Events a 1000000 star review, I would! Allie and the team were amazing during the wedding planning process, for rehearsal, and on wedding day. Allie was there for my husband and I at every step. Allie made sure our day ran smoothly and helped us solve every obstacle! From meeting with each vendor, setting up and breaking down decor, and creating an awesome timeline, Allie and the team exceeded all expectations! I truly cannot imagine having a successful wedding without O.M.Gee Events. Thank you so much to Allie and the O.M.Gee team! We love you!!!

We used LSC Event Planning for month-of coordination, and as much as we loved our vendors, working with LSC was the best money we spent to give us peace of mind throughout the process. Eli and her team went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day went off without a hitch. Eli is incredibly organized, professional, detail-oriented, and kind. She made the entire process seamless from start to finish. Our weekly meetings were a pleasure to look forward to as she always came prepared with an agenda and a smile. She’s a true wealth of knowledge when it comes to weddings and vendor management, and she answered every single one of our questions (big or small) with so much patience. From gratuities to floor plans to timelines to day-of checklists, Eli handled it all with grace. She guided us through countless decisions with confidence and care, and always made us feel supported. What stood out most was how Eli and her team treated us like old friends. They were present and reassuring for every question, comment, or curiosity we had. On the wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a thing—they had everything handled so we could truly enjoy the celebration. The team knew exactly when we were needed and when we could be left alone to soak in the day. We heard nothing but positive things from other vendors about how LSC executed the day. They took tons of behind-the-scenes photos and videos as well to help us relive the big moments, which we truly appreciated. From the initial consultation, it was clear that Eli and her team have a passion for creating heartfelt memories and making every couple feel special. We are strongly recommending LSC Event Planning to all of our friends & family who are planning to get married. If you’re looking for a coordinator that will exceed expectations in every possible way, Eli and her team are on it!

About wedding planners

How much does a wedding planner cost?

On average, a full-service wedding planner can cost between $3,000 and $10,000. It depends on where you live and where you’re getting married. Planners in areas with high costs of living, like New York City and San Francisco, may charge upwards of $20,000. If you’re having a destination wedding, consider using a planner local to the area—you’ll avoid paying extra for travel, accommodations, and meals. Day-of coordinators cost less. They may have a flat fee between $1,000 and $5,000, or charge hourly. Always ask about pricing up front so nothing comes as a surprise later.

What do wedding planners do?

Think of wedding planners as jack-of-all-trades experts when it comes to weddings. Many offer different levels of service to meet your needs. If you just want day-of coordination, for example, your planner will be there to make sure your ceremony and reception go off without a hitch. This may mean setting up vendors or directing your wedding party and guests to make sure everyone is where they need to be at the right time. On the other end of the spectrum, full-service planning may involve:

  • Starting the planning far in advance
  • Budget management
  • Coordinating with your venue
  • Recommending vendors and negotiating contracts
  • Staying on top of trends and making suggestions
  • Ironing out all-important last-minute details
  • Running interference with family members if conflict arises
  • Making a schedule and ensuring everything runs smoothly
  • Executing on your vision, from the rehearsal dinner to the reception

Should we get a wedding planner?

Planners are great resources and can make planning your wedding much less stressful. If you’ve got the budget, a wedding planner is well worth the investment. Planners offer different service levels at varying price points. Choose the amount of help and cost that makes the most sense for you. At the bare minimum, you need someone (hired or delegated) to help manage the event day-of so you will be able to enjoy yourselves without worrying about too many logistics. If you decide to enlist a friend or family member to take on this role, keep in mind that this person will need to prioritize your needs over their own, and will no longer be attending or enjoying the wedding simply as a guest.
