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.

Having a day-of coordinator was a must of mine because I get overwhelmed easily. Jazmyn was amazing from the beginning. She has great communication, asks all the right questions ( questions we never even thought of) and offers great suggestions. I probably would’ve given up on the wedding if it wasn’t for her lol. We had our caterer drop out 2 weeks before the wedding and she had a new caterer booked with the same menu and same price range in less than an hour, and the food was great. On wedding day, she was organized and made sure everyone knew where to be at what time, and had everything set up perfectly after the room flip. I don’t think I can talk her up enough.

  • Offers 3 services

  • Serves Lake Of The Forest, KS

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!

We had our wedding in Fall 2024. We booked with a Venue that offered all the things, and great packages, so we could be worry free come the Big Day! Unfortunately, come our wedding day we did not get what we were promised or planned for. After our wedding we just kept beating ourselves up and saying “we could have done so much better” and “I wish we would have just made this or done that.” So we took a leap and here we are! We are determined to help other couples on a budget but still want quality! It’s our mission to help make every event we are involved in, Beautiful and Memorable.

AB Bloom went above and beyond for my flowers! They made the entire process so easy, and the final arrangements were absolutely stunning. I received so many compliments on my bouquet and the flower arches — they were truly breathtaking. You can tell they put so much care and detail into their work. I couldn’t be happier and highly recommend AB Bloom to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality florals!

Welcome! I am a Kansas City Lifestyle, Portrait, and Wedding Photographer. Growing up I always had an eye for anything artistic and loved being able to share my vision of the world. I was first introduced to photography in my senior year of high school and immediately knew that is what I wanted my career to be. I continued the venture through college and graduated from UMKC with a degree in photography. A little about Noire Studios: Where does the name Noire Studios come from? I mixed my first name and last name (maiden) together - NO (from Noelle) and IRE (from Ireland). Creating a business from a few things that capture ME!

Noire Studios was the best vendor on my wedding day! Noelle and her team made me feel at ease the moment they walked in. The day went beautifully and the images are stunning! We could not have asked for a better photographer!

I recently got married 6/21/2025 and let me just tell you, Hannah was the BEST decision that we made - hands down. She is kind, patient, and so so easy to work with. From the first time that we met with her, just knew that we needed to hire her. Not only is her pricing fantastic, but her work is out of this world. We got our "sneak peek" video back super-fast and cannot wait for the full length one soon. If you're considering video but don't have a connection, you NEED to reach out to Hannah to set up a consult. I promise you will not be disappointed!! Eleven out of ten stars!!

Welcome to Fort Osage Christmas Tree Farm and Wedding Venue. Nestled within an enchanted evergreen forest on the bluffs of the Missouri River, a place of ethereal beauty, we offer a wedding experience that feels as if you have left the rest of the world behind. Witness the wonder that is “Celestial Glow Chapel”, our outdoor ceremony space, as beautiful as it is spellbinding. The Chapel’s open air design, defined only by the edges of the forest and the sky above, is a glorious and mystical cathedral of nature. Standing in marvelous contrast to the rustic tapestry of evergreen forest is the elegant refinement of White Pine Lodge. The Lodge is an intimate and warm retreat for a reception that pairs perfectly with the magic and drama outside. Fort Osage Christmas Trees & Weddings is more than just a venue; it is a sanctuary of wilderness & romance. Here dreams are transformed into reality & love becomes evergreen.

Our daughter Alexis and new son in law Jayson got married at the Tree Farm on what we believe the literal hottest day of August ever!!! The initial tour gave us opportunity to see the whole grounds. Nick told us during this time how he would be our day of coordinator but could also be available for DJ if we wanted. He went over all the different parts of what the faculty offers such as the initial package, add ons, and day of expectations. When we chose to use this place he walked us through contract questions and we asked many questions. He wanted it to be clear we knew he was the wedding contact and Kim his mom only handled the payments. After we booked the months went quickly but he was always available when we had questions and worked regularly with the couple to finalize plans and support them as needed. He was flexible when we had to change meeting dates, set rehearsal times and make a few changes to the days schedule. He provided many helpful suggestions they used as well. The day of the wedding Nick was AMAZING!! He continued to check on the full wedding party and our guests through the day to make sure we had water, supplies and anything he could assist with. The property was a perfect backdrop for our daughter’s special day!! While the weather was out of everyone’s control and literally tried to bake us all during the ceremony LOL Nick made sure to let us know if guests needed they could use the Lodge for air until the ceremony began. He was able to help us direct our caterers and photographer for set up, and preparing for their time with us. Our photographer even got a few shots with him and the wedding couple to remember the day!! We HIGHLY recommend that if you are looking for an outdoor space with a forest feel this IS the place for it! Budget friendly but they also have options on what you need. Nick and family was always checking in, quick to response and helpful when we needed so don’t hesitate to ask ALL THE QUESTIONS. He was willing to answer all of them over and over sometime. Schedule the tour - you won’t regret it !!

We believe wedding planning should feel exciting, organized, and truly enjoyable. Our approach is rooted in thoughtful details, clear communication, and genuine care for our couples. Whether you need full-service planning, partial support, or day-of coordination, we’re here to guide you every step of the way. 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. Best wishes in your wedding and marriage journey to all those who may be reading this. The ceremony and celebration goes by fast! Soak it all in! LAP

We hired Theresa to be our officiant and she did an amazing job creating our ceremony! She was very professional and is just an overall kind and genuine soul. We knew right when met her that we wanted her to be a part of our day. She met with us a couple times per month before our wedding and really got to know us. She created such a welcoming and inclusive space and was invested in creating a ceremony that we felt really fit us and our story as a couple. The ceremony turned out beautifully!! I 1000% HIGHLY recommend Theresa!!
