About Baldwin and Rose: Event Enthusiasts
Halley Gmeiner
I've been organizing/planning/assisting with events as a side hustle for the majority of my life. As my friends started to get married, I found myself helping in any way I could (directing vendors, fixing flower arrangements, gathering family for photos, etc.) Before long I was offering my services to people I barely knew, just as part of a conversation when anyone mentioned they were getting married. After several successful day-of wedding coordinator gigs that ended with smiles and compliments from both clients and vendors, I made the leap to make this more official. So here we are!
I love love and many planners probably feel the same way. What makes me a little different (I think) is that I bring my authentic self to your event, which can show up as socially anxious with punny jokes and plenty of sarcasm. I'm real with you and don't promise a perfect day - that's not how the world works. What I do promise is that when things do get messy, I'm there to shield you from it (unless there are significant medical, legal, or financial implications). And if you're cool with my sense of humor, I also promise laughter throughout the planning process!
In three words: Flexible, Fun, Supportive

If you want a wedding day that feels effortless, hire Halley. Halley was absolutely amazing. Her personality is exactly what you want in a wedding planner and day-of coordinator: approachable, friendly, confident, and incredibly professional. We had a large wedding with 180 guests, and everything flowed and moved seamlessly. Halley knew exactly how to support us throughout the planning process and handled every last-minute detail with ease. On the wedding day, she truly crushed it. She even helped clean the brides dress before the ceremony when it got dirty during pictures! She was there for everything we needed, filled in gaps we did not even realize existed, and asked all the right questions about details we had not thought of ourselves. Because Halley was handling the details behind the scenes, we were able to be fully present and enjoy our wedding rather than worrying about logistics. She kept the day on schedule and made a 180-person wedding feel effortless. Halley is the ultimate professional, with the best personality you could ask for in this role. We could not recommend her more highly.

Halley was a life saver. As a Bride who felt incredibly overwhelmed by the wedding industry, Halley eased my concerns and helped me navigate the endless decisions that planning a wedding involves. She recommended amazing vendors (DJ and Photographer) who we and our guests adored. She kept me on track and helped me remember the little logistics you sometimes don't think of in planning a large event. On the day of the wedding, she calmly handled strong personalities and the teeny bits of havoc that throwing together an outdoor tent wedding inevitably involves. I highly recommend Halley if you are looking for a down to earth, legit good human being to work with.

Halley is a fantastic day-of-coordinator. We planned a completely DIY wedding and had no clue how the day was going to come together. Halley stepped in and choreographed the entire day flawlessly. We went to get ready and came back to the tent looking exactly how we had pictured. She kept the timeline running smoothly but not in an overbearing way. If anything went wrong during our wedding, we have no idea because Halley took care of it. Beyond her organizing skills, Halley is also a fantastic person. She is funny, joyful, and supportive. She was a wonderful person to have around on our day, and we couldn't be more thankful that we hired her.

I never thought we’d hire a wedding planner, but working with Baldwin and Rose was the best wedding choice we made! From the beginning of our first Zoom meeting to the moment she helped break down the chairs at the end of the night, Halley went above and beyond to help us have exactly the wedding we wanted. Halley connected us with vendors we never would have found on our own who completely suited our budget and vision, thought of all the details we didn’t, and calmed our considerable nerves throughout. (She also made sure we actually managed to eat!) We’re so grateful that Halley’s holistic approach helped us create a joyous, quirky weekend that allowed us to maximize time with our loved ones.
