“There truly aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are to Breanna and Molly at Wild Rose Planning & Events. Planning my daughter’s destination wedding in Ireland was no small task, but from the very beginning, they made us feel completely supported and at ease. Their attention to detail was simply incredible. Whether someone needed eye drops, a last-minute banner had to be made, or the venue needed setting up, nothing was ever too much to ask. Breanna and Molly seemed to be everywhere at once, always anticipating what was needed before anyone even had to ask. Because of their warmth, professionalism, and genuine care, our guests were able to relax and fully enjoy every moment of such a special celebration. By the end of the wedding, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room, including Breanna and Molly. That speaks volumes about the love, heart, and dedication they pour into what they do. We could not have asked for better partners in bringing my daughter’s dream wedding to life, and we will be forever grateful. I cannot recommend Wild Rose Planning & Events highly enough.”

Our goal is to create a seamless experience that allows you to stay present, confident, and stress-free while celebrating one of the most meaningful days of your life.

“For our wedding, we utilized very few additional services as my career requires me to plan and host events/dinners for 900 guests. So I went into the wedding preparation pretty confident with my capabilities to pull it off on my own. I soon discovered that I needed some additional oversight. Paige and Wild Arrow Events to the rescue! Paige was on it. She assisted with our website, program, calendar of events and gift tags for content, verbiage and layout. It is so easy to overlook misspellings, alignment, punctuation, etc. when you look at your creations for too long. She caught things that were very blatant and would have been embarrassing if they went out to my guests. She made wonderful suggestions that I never would have thought of ask guest to be seated by a certain time, menu details, parking details, etc. While I have experience in events, not so much on weddings. Paige knows the ins and outs. We had our wedding at the Elms hotel in Excelsior Springs a historic and beautiful hotel, but there are some different things to consider at this type of venue. Plus, we also did a brunch wedding, while wonderful, is not as common. So the communication and flow really needed to be clearPaige was a step ahead of at all times. Paige also assisted with coordinating our decor and those little touches of welcome bags, cake boxes and guest gifts. I am so pleased with her services and her attention to the tiniest of details as that what made the difference to us and our guests. She will tackle the largest aspects of your wedding but also the smallest. It was a comfort to have her professionalism leading up to the wedding and the day of.

Hi there! I’m an event designer and partial wedding planner, and I absolutely love what I do. There’s something so special about helping couples bring their wedding vision to life in a way that feels fun and personal but at the same time organized and put together. I get excited about all the little details, the colors, textures, layouts, and moments that make a wedding truly memorable. My favorite part is seeing a couple’s personal styles come together beautifully and knowing I helped make their day feel effortless and joyful.

“Mariel was awesome at helping me finish planning my wedding. She did more than we asked and was incredibly supportive. I had some of my wedding planning done but felt really lost in others. She gave me recommendations and quickly adapted to our style. She definitely felt more like a friend rather than a person I was working with.”

“We were incredibly lucky to have Whitney from Confetti Events as our wedding planner. Beyond being a close friend, she brought an exceptional level of professionalism, creativity, and calm to our wedding in August. We had a very specific and layered vision—a hacienda-inspired aesthetic set in the forests of Oregon, with elements that also complemented a golf course setting—and she executed it beautifully. She translated a complex idea into a cohesive, intentional design that felt warm, elevated, and completely “us.” What truly set her apart were the thoughtful details and her ability to make things happen, even at the last minute. When we decided we wanted an ice cream vendor close to the wedding, she made it happen seamlessly. She also incorporated deeply personal family touches, including honoring our “legacy of love,” in ways that felt meaningful and never performative. Those moments meant so much to us and our families. From planning through the wedding day, she handled logistics effortlessly, coordinated vendors with confidence, and anticipated needs before they arose. Because of her, everything ran smoothly and we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Hiring Confetti Events was one of the best decisions we made. Whitney balances creativity with flawless execution and leads with genuine heart. We couldn’t recommend her more highly! Mariel Johnny”

When we faced a small issue with a vendor, Marissa was there to advocate for us, finding quick solutions that relieved us of unnecessary stress. One aspect of working with Marissa that we loved most was her openness to our ideas, especially when we wanted incorporate cultural elements into our wedding. Whether it was the late-night ramen bar, hand-folded origami flowers, or engraved chopsticks as gift favors, Marissa ensured these touches were integrated tastefully and seamlessly. She respected our vision and made sure everything looked elegant and fun. On the day of our wedding, Marissa went out of her way to show up for us and make the experience unforgettable. We are incredibly grateful for everything Marissa did for us, and we will undoubtedly recommend her to all our friends and family.”
