I’ve worked with a lot of DJs as a wedding coordinator, and I’ve worked with Roy (owner) quite a bit. Roy wasn’t able to work my wedding so he had Douglas, and I LOVE Douglas! This guy completely matched our vibe/energy, his mixes were smooth, his announcements were audible. Douglas seriously was the best DJ. I cannot say thank you enough to him! I also loved our PhotoBooth and our friends had a lot of fun taking pics and going through the props! — I’ve also now had the pleasure to work with both Doug & Roy at weddings after my wedding and everyone adores them each time. They are both so kind, their mixing is fantastic, they read the crowd super well and make sure to find the right music to get the party going! I will recommend Crystal Pro indefinitely!!

Wild Rose Planning & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (22 reviews)
Kansas City, MO
  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $6,500

Wild Rose Planning & Events was established in 2021 by two wedding industry experts. Throughout our years in the industry, we felt there was a gap in the planning process, making it feel more like work than fun. We’re here to provide you with the experience you deserve — stress free, organized, and memorable!

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I got engaged in May 2023, Wild Rose was the very first vendor I booked (I sent my inquiry the day after he proposed). As a venue owner with more than 5 years in the industry at the time, I knew that the most important, non-negotiable vendor would be our coordinator. I knew that I wanted the full planning aspect so that I could enjoy the process as a BRIDE, not from an industry or “work” perspective. Brenna and Molly had been so amazing to work with at the venue, I absolutely loved their product and knew I had to have them do my wedding. From day one they made me feel so confident in our choices, our to-do list felt like it was handled and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They fully designed our day - stationary, florals, decor rentals, it was such a blast to have our check-in meetings on Zoom to SEE our design come together. They handled all of the vendor exchanges, including when we arrived to our venue in Costa Rica and it looked completely different than the pictures online so we ended up moving our ceremony site to our welcome party site with 24 hours to go! I’d be lying if I said I didn’t worry for a second, but I did worry - if only for a second. Truly Brenna and Molly said “we got this” and they handled it so easily. I was worried about packing two wedding dresses for international travel - Molly had me bring them and my suitcase to work and she herself packed them perfectly. When we got to Costa Rica they came to our villa to unpack and hang them safely. On my wedding day Molly steamed my veil and was actually the one to get me in my dress. They were also so incredibly understanding with everything I wanted to do to include my mother who passed away in 2021. I brought a necklace with cremation remains and they so lovingly tied it on my bouquet for me. They carried the portrait I had my now mother-in-law carry down the aisle around with them throughout the day like she was just hanging out with them. They even took the portrait back to their flat so mom was at their “after party.” Our 3 sons are the first to refer our friends and family that are wedding planning to “Miss Brenna and Molly” - they loved hanging out with them for the week we were together. Overall - I love Brenna and Molly enough to spend a year in meetings with them AND fly them to Costa Rica for a week, along with our 30 closest family and friends. Their care, attention to detail, and confidence continue to amaze me and Wild Rose will always and forever be the best thing I ever did for our wedding!

RACH!! MY HERO!! MY FAVORITE PERSON EVER! I don’t even know how to thank you for everything you have done. You made my fairy wonderland Wedding come true. I’ve always dreamed of my wedding ever since I was little. I described to you in my head how I wanted it to be and you made it come to life. You knew exactly what I wanted. From helping with the perfect vendors, to the flowers, helping me find my dress, to the little details like the chair rentals. Everything was so beyond perfect because of you. Wedding day was beyond perfect. My day was stress free, fun, sentimental, and one big party. I didn’t have to worry about anything because you and your team took care of everything. Rachael took care of everything behind the scenes, setting everything up, decorating, and making sure I was ok. And your team was so fun and helpful. They even carried around my Stanley for me all day to make sure I was drinking water. I couldn’t have asked for a better day I will never stop reliving it. Thanks for making my day perfect.

Elizabeth, Kyle, and her team were amazing - from the first initial Zoom call all the way to picking up my wedding album and everything in between. The process is detailed, so that decisions are made prior to the big day, which helps to alleviate decisions on the day-of. Her photography is out of this world with the angles she finds and the moments she is able to capture. Kyle also has quite the eye for capturing clips throughout the day that make such a spectacular video. 10/10 recommend this duo and their team!!

Tai was my makeup artist for my wedding, and she was wonderful to work with - professional, on time, kind, and patient throughout the entire process. I was pleased with my final look and felt like a more glam version of myself, which was what I wanted. Five of us had our makeup done, and Tai took great care with each person, especially my sister who has very sensitive skin and my mom whose makeup preferences were more specific. We also loved the touch-up kits provided for each of us. Tai was open to feedback both during my bridal trial and on the wedding day itself (pictures of my trial attached - realized I didn't take a good plain make up shots on the day of). Since I don’t have much experience with makeup terminology, it took us a little longer to get to what I wanted for my eye makeup and lip color. Tai was very accommodating as we adjusted a few things together. Looking back, I think seeing some colors swatched directly on my skin earlier in the process could have helped, especially since as a non-expert, it felt like we were on different pages trying to communicate. However, that probably isn’t specific to Lovely Beauty and would’ve been the case with myself and any make up artist. In any case, Tai’s willingness to collaborate and make adjustments was appreciated. Additionally, the Lovely Beauty Team was responsive to my emails and easy to work with throughout the planning process, and I would absolutely recommend them to other brides.

Caitlyn Cloud Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
Kansas City, MO
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

I grew up in a divided home, literally. Splitting time between my parents after their divorce, often being in the middle of their fighting, made me grow into a very empathetic person. It’s become the biggest strength I take with me into wedding days. My documentary style stems from my ability to sense when special moments are about to happen. I am able to sense emotions that aren’t necessarily visible, sense when to come close and when to be a fly-on-the-wall, and sense what/who is important to you therefore important to photograph.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Caitlyn enough!! I've been so lucky to work with Caitlyn in the past through my sister's wedding (so I know how amazing she is and how fantastic her picture are), but working with her from the bride's POV was just as amazing! Everything from our initial inquiry with her, to our wedding day was seamless. Caitlyn had great communication with us; responding to emails within 1-2 days, checking in with us on the wedding planning journey, offering support and advice in all areas of wedding planning, even emailing to give updates on the wedding gallery editing process. My husband and I are just naturally very awkward people and had never taken professional photos together before. We were worried that our awkwardness would come out in the pictures/we wouldn't know what to do other than just stand and smile. What we loved about working with Caitlyn, was that she was just there as a fly on the wall capturing pictures of us as we were sitting and talking and laughing together. She would give us pose ideas and ideas to make each other laugh, and overall made us feel very comfortable in a situation where we would not typically feel comfortable. On our wedding day, there was probably 5-6 inches of snow on the ground; Caitlyn brought her snow boots with her to our wedding day and marched through the snow with us to give us the most amazing wedding photos! The snow pictures are by far my favorite pictures from our day. Caitlyn delivered a MASSIVE wedding gallery of so many fantastic photos! I feel as if she captured all the different moments of our wedding (e.g., getting ready, vows, first looks, ceremony, reception, etc) perfectly. I love all the photos of our guests from the ceremony and reception; with the day being so busy it's hard to talk to every single guest, but having these pictures is special because we know they were there and excited to celebrate with us. One thing I recommend to future brides booking with Caitlyn, is to schedule a meeting with her to sit down and make sure your shot list has all the necessary combinations. Our family photos are some of our favorite pictures, but when my husband and I were putting together our shot list, we forgot some combinations of people that we felt strongly about getting more 1:1 pictures with. A meeting with Caitlyn to discuss your shot list, will help to eliminate any opportunity for missed combinations. Overall, Caitlyn did a fantastic job capturing my husband and I from our engagement pictures, to the wedding day, but also capturing our relationships with family and friends through wedding day pictures (e.g., getting ready, reception, etc.). We plan to use Caitlyn to capture all of our best life adventures from here on out! :)

I get married in October and my friends and family threw me an absolutely beautiful bridal shower. It was at The Martin Event Space and full disclosure, I won it as an event package at the KC Engaged Bridal Fair. Since I won it, they didn’t have to put forth the effort that they did.

I'm Molly- I love to celebrate love stories, and am a massive romantic at heart. Live wedding paintings aren't just a novelty, or a trend- they are an heirloom that you can pass down to family for generations. I love challenges, and that's a big part of why I love being a live wedding painter. Everything happens so fast! I can make a painting in 4 hours or less- from the ceremony though your reception. I have been an illustrator for 15 years, and I have my BFA in Painting from Memphis College of Art. Currently still have some openings for fall 2025, but booking up fast!

I had the absolute pleasure of seeing Molly from Blush Bloom Studio in action, and I can’t recommend her enough! She painted a live watercolor of the couple’s wedding kiss at the reception, and it was incredible to witness. Her attention to detail, ability to color match, and the way she captured the emotion of the moment in such a delicate, artistic way left everyone in awe. Not only is she extremely talented, but Molly is also a true professional. Her communication was warm, kind, and genuine from start to finish. Watching her work in real time was such a unique and magical experience—and she completed the painting by the end of the reception! If you're looking for a meaningful and breathtaking keepsake for your wedding day, I can’t think of a more special way to capture the moment. Molly’s work is unforgettable!

I offer charming & delicate watercolor portraits of your loved ones live at your wedding, as well as romantic paintings of your venue to capture the setting of your day. I also offer post guest or venue paintings to send with your thank yous. With decades of experience as a fine artist, I capture personality, & subtle details in a gentle & charming style your guests will treasure. My painting table becomes a warm, interactive experience that honors every person I paint. I truly love creating something that makes people smile and feel special.

Having Angelique from The Painted Bouquet as our live guest painter was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We initially booked her for florals, but when she shared her Painted Guest service, it sounded so unique that we couldn’t resist and I’m so grateful we didn’t. Our guests who came from so far away were curious from the moment they walked in so we felt we were giving them a true gift. It became this beautiful, social moment but a keepsake as well The portraits themselves were stunning. Not rushed but sweet and well done! Each guest left with something meaningful. We even framed ours. If you want your guests to feel seen, cherished, and part of your party you need Angelique there. Our wedding felt fun, intimate, and deeply personal because of her. I can’t recommend her enough!!

We had such an amazing wedding at The Oliver Building. Having the venue for the whole weekend made our weekend run so smoothly. We had our rehearsal Friday night, and brought everything over so we didn’t need to deal with it Saturday. Then got ready in the amazing upstairs suites Saturday morning. We had a great time, and Caitlin was so easy to work with! The only reason I took a star off is that we had some issues with the bar. We made it clear from the start that we wanted to prioritize the bar, and didn’t want long lines. Because of that, they said we would have 3 bartenders, and would batch some of our signature cocktails. Unfortunately, we only had two bartenders, despite giving tips for 3, and there were no cocktails batched. We did have a pretty long line at our bar most of the night because of this. All in all, it was an amazing venue for our wedding!!

Recognized for our elevated design aesthetic and a collaborative, high-touch approach to planning, we channel our expertise to achieve events rooted in both creativity and beauty, with unparalleled execution.

Great experience with Union. First off, they have a beautiful space that really encompasses the vibe of downtown KC. But their service was also great to match. We wish we had gone with the full planning package instead of just the month-of-package, because once they started getting involved in our plan about 60 days out, things really got a lot easier, so I would highly suggest using them for your planning. They worked great with all of our vendors and all of our guests were impressed with their team!

Most couples don't love being photographed, and that's okay. They love each other and they're excited about their wedding, but they're usually a little anxious about the camera part. That's where I come in! I'm Morgan, a Kansas City wedding and elopement photographer specializing in intimate weddings and elopements. I eloped myself, so I understand intimacy over spectacle. Making people feel comfortable and like themselves in front of a camera is the whole foundation of how I work.

Morgs and Sam were amazing. They had such great energy and felt like part of the family, making the photo process more fun than awkward. The quality of their work is top-notch and we're thrilled with how the photos turned out. We couldn't recommend MorgsBehindTheCamera more highly for any couple looking for wedding photographers who will make you feel comfortable in your own skin!
