We cannot thank Ultimate Beats ENOUGH for the fun they brought to our wedding reception!! We had over 300 people at our wedding, and Martin kept the dance floor rocking all night long. There was never a dull moment when it wasn't jam packed with friends and family having a fantastic time! We are over a month after our big day now, and we are STILL getting compliments from our guests for the "amazing DJ" we had at our reception who played "all of the right tunes"! My husband and I also greatly appreciated their flexibility in letting us curate the playlist for the evening. This definitely set them apart from other DJs we spoke with! We are already looking for the next excuse to hire Ultimate Beats for an event again! They are incredible and so easy to work with! Also, we asked for the CO2 cannon in our package which was a HIT. Just something extra to spice up the fun. Ultimate Beats also provided the photobooth for our photo guestbook!

I launched Allyssa Elaine Events in 2016 and have been spending the last few years in awe of what I get to call my job.

Here at AEE, we are dedicated to giving quality service, building relationships with clients, and providing the best experience at every event. We are always up for any task you hand us and go above and beyond, no questions asked. We love the people that trust us with these important moments in life!

I am so serious when I say I couldn’t have gotten married without Allyssa. It is incredible to work with someone who is so phenomenal at their job. She has so much experience to bring to the table and comes across as effortless on her part. From day one, her organization kept me on track despite my insanely busy schedule. Most people feel that wedding planning is stressful and I actually think I had FUN planning the wedding of my dreams. She has such amazing relationships in the industry, so knew all of my vendors were trustworthy and going to make my day so special (and they did!!!). Her calm demeanor in every situation makes for the most hands free and stress free wedding day. I was so stress free and having the time of my life that I wasn’t even bothered when I got espresso martini spilled all over the front of my dress! Allyssa was immediately at my side with (a lot of) Shout wipes to take care of business and get my back to my party! She took my vision and made it reality. Allyssa genuinely made my wedding day the absolute best day of my life!

I created Emily Novara Photography, LLC because I believe that capturing the best day of your life deserves the same attention to detail that you put into planning it. I love meeting my couples, hearing all about their love stories, getting to know them - like truly getting to know them (most of my brides consider me one of their friends!). My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

Emily is seriously amazing! We had an instant connection of trust and I knew our photos would be perfect. She was there for me through my entire planning process and helped guide me on any changes we needed. For our engagement photos, it was pouring rain and she had a backup plan asap. She makes the photos feel natural and nothing forced. For our wedding day, it rained yet again and Emily took charge of our wedding day. She creates a timeline for you. She was like my day of coordinator too! She came prepared with everything and anything you need. She made sure the day flowed as smooth as possible. Our wedding wouldn’t have been what it was, without her! We love Emily!!

  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $3,200

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Do yourself a favor and put your once-in-a-lifetime day in Victoria's hands. Although my daughter and her fiancee had a strong vision of their wedding ceremony and reception, they live out of town with full-time jobs and busy lives. Victoria recommended trusted vendors as needed and most importantly, helped coordinate a complicated timeline. With no "first-looks" and a large bridal party, Victoria expertly and calmly choreographed photography, vendors and family. With Victoria overseeing the details, we were all able to savor the day and witness the bride and groom's vision come to life. We had such a fun night visiting, dancing and celebrating. Thank you, Victoria, for coordinating a magical and joyous night to remember.

The Day Of STL 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
St. Louis, MO
  • Planner
  • Offers 1 service
  • Starts at $1,200

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 hired Madison as our day of coordinator due to feeling stressed about other people in my world "working" during my wedding day instead of enjoying it. Madison made sure with her whole heart that this did not happen. She took care of everything and many things we were not thinking of. She handed out NYE celebration supplies when I did not think to do that (just for the photo booth), made sure I stayed on schedule (my other biggest stress), and even found my grandmother a handicapped accessible bathroom. And most importantly, my family and friends were able to enjoy our wedding day completely. She took care of setting up, taking down and everything in between. Every meeting or text exchange with her calmed my nerves so I felt confident going into the day. It is very clear that Madison has excellent organization and execution skills and is truly a joy to work with. If you are thinking about hiring a day of coordinator, Madison is your girl!!

Katie Forbis | St. Louis-based, available anywhere | In my 18+ years of experience, I have found that the absolute best photos happen when couples are fully present in the moment - enjoying each other, their guests, and themselves. For this reason, I take mostly hands-off approach on wedding days. I do my best not to interfere with the events of the day, or direct the events of the day - instead, I document them as they unfold.

The beauty of Katie's photos speak for themselves--they are emotional, artistic, and eye-catching. But what you can't see in the photos is what an amazing person Katie is. She's exactly who you want to have around you on your wedding day. She is calm, easygoing, and confident, and her photos strike the perfect balance between artistic vision and candid spontaneity. It was amazing how she captured our day while still allowing us to be fully present with each other and our guests. We just can't recommend Vein&Vessel enough. - Nick and Norah

I felt very confident after it! On the day of, they did amazing! My makeup artist even redid my eyeshadow before I looked at it because she wanted to make it better. Both my hair and makeup stylist took my notes from my trials. I’ve never felt more beautiful! They then went on to do part of my bridal party and they all looked amazing! My only complaint is that the third stylist who just did hair ran behind and went out of order without me knowing. This delayed my getting ready photos almost an hour, as she was behind finishing and then took quite a while to clean up. She was still cleaning up as I was getting into my dress. She also complained about there being no elevator, which I understand is annoying but there was an option to go around the building and not down the steps and the complaint is not something I needed addressed to me on my wedding day. However, she did do wonderful work and the hair styles all look great. I definitely would still recommend this vendor!!

Photography became personal to me through loss and the reminder that life is fleeting. After losing two of my best friends in high school, photos became more than images. They became memories I deeply treasure. I’ve been a self-made photographer since 2019, and in 2020 I spent a year in Atlanta second shooting luxury weddings, refining my craft and style. I later moved back home to Salem, IL to be close to family and now proudly serve the Southern Illinois and St. Louis areas, capturing meaningful moments with intention, joy, and heart.

Rachael is so great to work with! She is personable, fun, and laidback. She kept the session fun and captured amazing shots. Her work is incredible! I highly recommend her!
