“We worked with Ally as our wedding coordinator, and we couldn’t recommend her more! From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, organized, and knowledgeable - especially when it came to our ceremony at the Jewel Box in Forest Park, which is known for having an extremely strict timeline. From the moment we booked the venue, Ally guided us through ceremony timing and logistics, putting our minds completely at ease knowing she would be running the show. Our rehearsal was efficient and perfectly organized thanks to her direction, and on our wedding day, she went above and beyond. As the venue coordinator, she was able to access the space early, set up all of our decor beautifully, and ensured that everything ran seamlessly from start to finish. The ceremony went off without a hitch, and we owe that to Ally’s calm, collected presence and attention to detail. She truly has an amazing eye for design and what looks best in a space.

“Rachel was *the biggest* gift to our wedding day. Throughout the entire planning, preparation, and coordination process she maintained clear and honest communication, organization, and style I never had a single doubt that we weren’t on the same page with the vision of the day. Showing up to the venue the day of our wedding, seeing how perfectly she executed our vision, was like a deep breath for all the cells in my body. Rachel was consistently on board with all of the small silly details we insisted on, and centered our priorities to ensure we didn’t exhaust ourselves with things that didn’t matter. Having her aware and gracefully reactive to all of our needs, my parents needs, and the needs of our guests, lifted so much potential stress and allowed us, and especially our parents, to relax and enjoy the day. In short: “She was the reason I didn’t lose my mind last night.” -Mother of the Bride”

“Jenna and the Perfectly Paired Planner team changed how we experienced my brother and sister-in-laws wedding day. Our families usually handle everything ourselves, which leaves us burnt out and unable to be present for the moments that matter. Jenna understood this about us and made sure we could step back, trust that the details were covered, and actually enjoy ourselves. As someone who struggles to let go of control, I found it freeing to hand things over to her capable hands. She and her team went far beyond what we expected, taking care of every need with genuine care and attention. Our family was able to be present at the wedding, and that gift is something we'll never forget.”

It has been a few weeks since the wedding, and every time anybody talks about it (MOB, MOH, Groom, etc.), we always mention Catherine and a job well done. She was extremely organized and professional... A calm and collected creative expert. When we had to devise a rain plan, she provided insights and solutions. When we had to execute said rain plan, she delivered. She helped with set up, decoration, timeline management, vendor management, guest experience, and more! She was also a friendly face and presence throughout the day... checking to make sure we were stress-free and happy.

“We hired Anthology Print several years ago to print our wedding invitations through. We printed multiple sizes and numbers of invites between the wedding announcement, luncheon invite, and temple rsvp. They all turned out beautifully and were delivered quickly. I made sure to keep a handful for my own memories and the quality is unmatched - they still look like the day they were mailed out. If you want a team that will help with design and printing, you've found them!”

“Amanda and the team at Signed Sealed Delieved Events were truly the reason our wedding day felt so seamless and stress free. While the planning support was wonderful, it was on the actual wedding day where Amanda’s expertise, organization, and calming presence absolutely shined. From the moment the day began, she stepped in and took care of everything. She managed the timeline flawlessly, coordinated with vendors, answered questions, guided our wedding party, and handled all of the little behind the scenes details that could have easily become overwhelming. Because of her, we did not have to worry about a single logistical thing. We were able to be fully present, soak in every moment, and truly enjoy our wedding day with our family and friends. Amanda anticipated needs before they even arose, kept everything running smoothly without ever making us feel rushed, and navigated the day with such professionalism and grace. If anything went wrong, we never knew about it, which is exactly what you hope for on your wedding day. Her ability to take charge while still being warm, approachable, and reassuring made ALL the difference. Looking back, we cannot imagine our day without her.

The Binder Co. was founded by Kimiloluwa Fafowora, a designer and brand strategist with over a decade of experience across e-commerce, tech, and creative industries. We bring that same rigor to every wedding we design: sharp creative direction paired with structured vendor briefs, timelines, and active coordination with your vendor team from concept through execution. Fully virtual, working with couples nationwide, we stay involved through the logistics that bring the vision to life. If you're drawn to editorial, elevated design with hands-on support behind it, we'd love to hear about your day.

“Kimi pulled together so many different design elements into a cohesive vision we could finally visualize for our dream day. The written concept honestly brought me to tears — it was the first time our wedding started to feel real. Everything that was pulled together felt like more than a mood board and more like a it was a wedding vision we could actually feel.”
