Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Willow Creek Event Planning to support the day of coordination for our wedding in March. They did an excellent job communicating with us and our other vendors. They were on top of every detail on our wedding day and everything we had planned happened successfully. We had inclement weather on our wedding day and they were on top of any changes that had to be made and communicated with everyone at our venue. Their communication was clear and professional. I really felt like they took a load off our shoulders on the day of the wedding, which allowed us to stay in the moment and enjoy the day. Thank you so much to Emory and Sarah at Willow Creek Event Planning for helping make our wedding day extremely memorable and amazing!

You deserve a wedding that reflects who you truly are, not someone else’s idea of what a wedding should look like. We started our wedding planning studio because too many couples with rich, meaningful stories were being pushed into one-size-fits-all templates. We believe non-traditional weddings, micro weddings, and elopements deserve the same care and intention. Our planners experience allow us to balance heart and logistics. We listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and turn what makes your relationship unique into a celebration that feels intentional and real. You are trusting us with your love story, and we take that seriously.

They were the perfect planners for our 70s themed weddig. From the moment we started working with them, their friendly and attentive communication style put us at ease. They overcommunicated every detail and were great listeners, ensuring they our unique vision. The quality of their wok was truly amazing! They brought our 70s theme to life in a fun and seamless way that felt elegant and classy instead of like weird and cheesy. One of the highlights was their idea to have a planned soul train line during the reception, which was a huge hit with our guests. We could not have pulled off this wedding without Mythical Moments Made by InfiniTiea, and we highly recomend them to any couple looking for a stress-free, personalized wedding planning experience.

Genevieve and her team just finished working with my wife and I on our October 11th wedding. We used the Event Management package and are so happy we did! We spent the last year booking all of all vendors and working on all the fine details of decor, music, and signage etc. We started working with Days and Eves to help close all of the open gaps and work on the day of timeline. We thought we had all questions answered but we certainly did not! It was so helpful to have the team provide us with all of the schedules and guides to ensure that the day ran smoothly, for which it did! Everyone who was a part of the wedding knew what they needed to do and went to her or her assistant for questions. This allowed us to just be there and present. When we walked into the ceremony and reception, each time we were so blown away by how wonderful it looked! All of our items were placed perfectly to our guides and the restaurants additional items were worked in perfectly. Genevieve's schedule and suggested flow worked wonderful and we felt as relaxed (as possible). At the end of the night, she worked neatly to get all of our items so nicely packed and organized for us, which was much appreciated. We are so happy and grateful for Genevieve.

Tilly & Teal is amazing! I had the opportunity to work with Katie this month as a photographer, and she is incredible - down to earth, friendly, super talented, and puts the couple #1 every time. Over two incredible days, Katie managed every detail with grace and professionalism. She was incredibly organized and on top of every detail. I witnessed her regularly going above and beyond - from ensuring our bride and groom were calm throughout the day, to assisting with organizing details for flatlay photos, to so many hidden labors of love to make sure everything was as the couple envisioned and the experience was seamless for the couple & guests. I would not hesitate for a moment to work with Katie again. She is a true gem in the industry, and her talent and passion shine through in everything she does. Don’t miss the opportunity to have her leading your team!

I've been in business since September of 2006. I've been a bride, bridesmaid, maid of honor and a mother of the groom. I have experience from those different perspectives and therefore I can see and hear the different sides to a wedding or event. I have literally been in their shoes. This helps me to help my clients in so many ways. I love all the details that go into every wedding. I love to put it all together and see the happy faces of my couples when it all does comes together. I am team YOU. It's your wedding, and I do my very best to make your day as stress-less as possible.

We hired Renee (Rose & Calla Event Planning & Design Co.) for full service planning. As stated in our review on The Knot & WeddingWire (She deserves recommendations/reviews on all platforms), Renee was so nice, so professional, so easy to work with. We struggled with a few things like our budget, prioritizing items etc., and having Renee solved those issues. We were still able to have our vision for our wedding come to life. It was nice voicing my concerns. Renee listened to everything and helped me fine tune what I wanted. I did not feel out of control either. I made all the final decisions. She was so wonderful. Even our families adored her. She will be planning my sister's wedding too!

Ashley and Cameron were absolutely incredible wedding coordinators and truly went above and beyond in every possible way. From the very beginning, they were organized, attentive, and so supportive throughout the entire planning process and wedding day. They did an amazing job keeping me on track with everything I needed to do, gently reminding me of deadlines, details, and tasks so nothing ever slipped through the cracks. Their communication and consistency gave me so much peace of mind during what could have been a very overwhelming time. What really set them apart was how thoughtful and personalized their support was. They even sent me TikToks with ideas they thought I might like and went out of their way to browse stores and send me inspiration that matched my aesthetic perfectly. It made the planning process feel fun, creative, and so much more personal because they truly took the time to understand my vision. Beyond their professionalism, they made me feel so comfortable and supported every step of the way. I honestly feel like I gained two very good friends through this process. I always looked forward to our planning meetings—they made me laugh so much, made me feel at ease, and gave me such a strong sense of security throughout everything. On the wedding day, the moment I saw them, I immediately felt calm because I knew everything would be taken care of. And it was. They handled everything behind the scenes so seamlessly, allowing me to fully enjoy every moment without stress or worry. I truly cannot recommend Ashley and Cameron enough. They are not only incredibly professional and organized, but also kind, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect. I will forever be grateful for them.
