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. Whether you need help with coordination, planning, or decorating, you’ll be in great hands with Ally!

We hired Rachel as our Day of Coordinator for our September 2024 wedding and it was the best decision we made. Our wedding simply would not have been the same without her. One of the first recommendations I make to someone getting married is to hire a coordinator for their wedding - and this is entirely because of our experience with Rachel. She prompted us on the right questions for things we never would have considered, and was a huge help in guiding us on the timeline of events. She executed everything with a cool confidence, and we received so many compliments on how fun the wedding was and how smooth the event went. Rachel made herself reachable to our close friends and family, and made sure that we got to enjoy our day and not be tied up in all the logistics. She was flexible, prompt, and wasn’t afraid to take charge of the situation. Highly recommend for your needs - big or small!

My name is Shauna, In 2019, I transitioned from my career in special education to manage a wedding venue, allowing me the flexibility to participate in mission trips and spend more quality time with my children. I have a passion for planning weddings and organizing various events. In 2021, I founded my own business, aRay of Events, to provide my clients with memorable experiences that are free of stress! Since then, I have become a Wedding MBA Elite Level Certified Wedding Planner and assembled a fantastic team of wedding professionals who assist me in turning our couples' dreams into reality!

Booking the full Planner Collection was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. I constantly joked throughout the process that if I had to choose between my fiancé and Shauna, I’d choose her! As someone who’s normally very anxious, I was amazed by how calm and present I felt all weekend because Shauna had every single detail taken care of. From coordinating all of the vendors and decor to literally holding the crying ring bearer so his parents could enjoy the ceremony, she handled everything. My parents were originally against the idea of a wedding planner, but by the end of planning, they were raving about how we would not have had the same wedding without her and recommending her to all their friends. Shauna is organized, thoughtful, kind, and truly gifted at what she does. I am so so thankful that she helped bring my dream wedding to life.

At Honey Hollow Events, we believe your wedding day should feel calm, joyful, and totally you. We specialize in Day-Of Coordination for couples who’ve planned their own day and just want to relax and celebrate. About 4–6 weeks before, we jump in to tie up loose ends, confirm vendors, and bring your vision to life. We’re here to make sure all your hard work turns into a smooth, stress-free, and unforgettable day! 💕

A moment of silence for one of the best coordinators any bride could ever hope to have. I reached out to Marissa in June 2025, a full year before our wedding, and from day one she became so much more than a coordinator. She was my sounding board, my cheerleader, my voice of reason, and my calm whenever wedding planning felt overwhelming. No matter how busy she was, she always made time for me. Every question, every meeting, every last-minute thought—I never once felt like a burden. One of the best decisions we made was adding her setup and tear-down package. Brides, if you’re considering it, DO IT. After your wedding, you will be exhausted. Your parents will be exhausted. The last thing anyone wants to do is spend hours packing decor, organizing personal items, and figuring out where everything goes. Marissa handled it all. My family and I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. Everything was secured, organized, and ready for pickup the next day. That peace of mind alone was worth every penny. I am never the person who writes reviews, but Marissa deserves every ounce of recognition she receives. Throughout the planning process, she was there for every important milestone—our final walkthrough, rehearsal, vendor coordination, timeline creation, and all the countless details that go into making a wedding run smoothly. She created an incredibly detailed and personalized timeline that became the backbone of our day. Then June 7, 2026 arrived, and she absolutely proved why she is one of the best in the business. From the moment she arrived, she was in full wedding mode. Professional, organized, confident, and completely in control. She came dressed exactly as requested, equipped with an earpiece and constant communication with her assistant, ensuring every moving piece of the day was executed flawlessly. One of my biggest concerns was my processional music. I had very specific timing requests—I wanted each bridesmaid to walk at certain moments in the song so the chorus would hit perfectly when I walked down the aisle. I genuinely thought I was asking for the impossible. Not for Marissa. She had her assistant stationed with the DJ, communicated every cue perfectly, and somehow made everything happen down to the second. It was exactly as I envisioned it. The entire evening, she was always within eyesight. Every time I looked around, she was there making sure everything was running smoothly, coordinating vendors, keeping everyone on schedule, and putting out fires that I didn’t even know existed. Because of her, I was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment of my wedding day. That’s what makes Marissa special. She memorizes your vision. She knows where every detail belongs. She anticipates problems before they happen. She makes an incredibly difficult job look effortless. For the past year, she has shown me nothing but kindness, grace, professionalism, dependability, and genuine care. She loves what she does, and it shows in every interaction. And brides, let’s talk about pricing for a second. It is so easy to assume that the most expensive coordinator must be the best. I can confidently tell you that is not true. Marissa delivers a level of service that far exceeds her pricing. The value she provides is honestly unmatched. I will forever be grateful that she was part of our wedding day. If you’re lucky enough to have Honey Hollow Events available for your date, book her immediately. She will make your wedding better. Period.

The Day Of STL

The Day Of STL is a St. Louis-based wedding coordination company founded by Madison Akers. After being involved in over 10 weddings as a bridesmaid, wedding singer, and behind-the-scenes problem solver, Madison realized she had a natural eye for keeping a wedding day running smoothly. That experience turned into a passion and The Day Of STL was born. Madison now brings that same energy and attention to detail to every couple she works with.

I found Madison a month before the wedding date and she felt like an answered prayer. From day 1, Madison was able to provide support and guidance that I hadn't considered. My wedding had several vendors and required a great deal of communication and execution. On the Day of the Wedding, The Day of STL, handled a vendor hiccup with no problem and I was able to enjoy the day with no stress. Madison and Team kept us on time the wedding flowed beautifully. Thank you Madison!
