Awarded Best of Zola
The wedding was an enchanting experience. The reception was amidst the rolling hills and lush landscapes of Branson, Missouri. Insane panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Every element, the ceremony, hospitality, culinary delights, and entertainment seamlessly came together to create a day that was truly magical. At one point in the evening, Haylie made a song request for Yo Gotti's Down In The DM. Once the song dropped, the whole room went bananas. Wouldn't be surprised if she started DJing at events. I can't recommend Haylie enough.

Hi there! I am Emily and I am so excited you found your way here. I have a passion for curating one-of-a-kind weddings that showcase a couple’s individuality. It is important for me to get to know couple’s personally, what makes them excited about their wedding day and how I can alleviate any planning stress (ew, we don’t want stress). Consider me your right-hand gal, your “planner in your pocket”, your sounding board and the gal that will make sure your wedding day is flawless!

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily was easily the BEST wedding investment we have ever made. She went above and BEYOND as our day of coordinator. She took all the pieces we had started working on the wedding process and created a perfectly planned puzzle that was our wedding day. She calmed every nerve I had as a bride, she supported us as a couple and ultimately made our wedding the most magical day of my life. The only regret I have is not booking her sooner to alleviate all the wedding stress I had prior to booking her, believe me her consistent calls every 2 weeks to every week to almost every day leading up to my wedding day were like going to spa. I will never stop recommending her to every one I know who is getting married!!! Thank you Emily for everything!!!

Lindsay not only plans weddings for our Simply Elegant couples but also trains our entire team of planners to ensure that every Simply Elegant wedding is flawless and our client's vision is fulfilled.

Neither my husband nor I had been in a wedding, so we had no idea what we were doing when we began planning. We hired SEG for full-service planning, and we were so impressed by the time and resources made available to us. Our planner, Hanh, was so organized and attentive throughout the process. She was able to provide us with so many ideas to make our vision come true, and she knew to ask the vendors questions we never would have even thought of. She even went above and beyond on the day of, in ways such as helping bustle my dress which my mom and I couldn't figure out. The wedding workbook, especially the checklist organized by time out from the wedding, was so helpful in giving us a visual representation of everything we needed to do. Overall, hiring SEG full-service was well worth the money, and we highly recommend them for anyone who doesn't have the time or experience to plan their wedding themselves!

Rojin was the rockstar of our wedding. I was feeling anxious before the day, but when she turned up the whole day felt so relaxed. Before there was a problem, there was a solution. The schedule in her hands was exactly what I needed. I would recommend her for any event. She and her assistant vanessa were absolutely incredible. What is more incredible is that she was affordable and she went above and beyond. I found her on Zola, and I am so glad that I did. She is worth every penny and more.

  • Starts at $3,000

We were born from lessons learned by tackling the most important wedding to date; my own. A planner to my core, I never considered the need for assistance when planning and executing my wedding. And while I threw a truly great party, it came at the expense of me enjoying my own wedding. I took away from the experience the hard truth that just because I could, didn’t mean I should, and have turned that into something that I truly love; watching other couples bask in their moment, stress-free. We offer a variety of wedding and honeymoon services with the simple mission of creating beautiful, unique events that feel as good as they look.

Awarded Best of Zola
After some careful contemplating, I decided to hire a Day-of Coordinator for my wedding day. I was nervous to give up the reins after all of the pre-planning work I did. I'm (admittedly) a control freak and really wanted our big day to go as well as possible and stay within budget. It's also not easy for me to ask for help. A friend recommended Bisoux Event Co. to help me and Lisa was my Coordinator. She was kind, professional and handled many moving parts with aplomb and poise. After speaking with her for the first time, I knew she was exactly what I needed so I could relax, give my phone to my MOH and enjoy the day. When things had to change on the fly, (they will, they always do) she made audible decisions that were thoughtful and practical. If you are a control freak like me, do yourself a favor and hire Bisoux for your big day- You'll be grateful for the help!

Franklin went above and beyond and I’d give him more than 5 stars if I could! He was there for us not just the “day of,” but a full month prior to our wedding. He delivered much more value than what we’d expected when we signed with him. He struck just the right balance between professionalism and being friendly. He came off has professional and gave us confidence from the start that he would get the job done well, but we also appreciated that we could laugh together and that he felt like a friend. I think he’s good at reading couples and likely calibrates his approach based on the couple’s comfort level; he did so perfectly with us! Franklin’s excellent communication skills made the whole process that much easier. He made sure he captured every detail that was important to the success of our wedding (or just important to us) in a definitive document that became the gold standard for the day’s plan. Collecting this information, compiling it, adding some most-welcome suggestions, and making sure all the vendors were on the same page were instrumental to everything running smoothly and exceeded our expectations. This is where he shined most brightly and we could clearly see him dedicating time and energy to our event a full month prior to the big day. The basic requirement of a day-of coordinator is that they keep the day running smoothly. Franklin did everything humanly possible to achieve that. But moreover, he was generous with his ideas and really enhanced what we were planning. We set out to plan an original, somewhat untraditional event and he served as a great counselor, leading us away from potential pitfalls and toward ideas that wouldn’t have occurred to us otherwise. Highly recommend!

I was that person that did not think I needed a wedding planner! I decided last minute I needed one and I had interviewed 4 people and Christena was the only one that made me feel comfortable! Christena helped keep me organized, in control, and confident that I would be able to get through this! She brought things to my attention that I had no clue I needed to do. During the rehearsal dinner she got everyone in line and made sure everyone knew exactly what they were doing. The day of the wedding Christena and her assistant Jill knew literally handled everything from making sure my vision was brought to life, to making sure everything ran accordingly to plan, and making sure all items that were mine were organized and set aside for my family to gather at the end of the night. I cannot sing Christena’s praises enough! You are getting more than a wedding planner with her! If you are on the fence about this do not be, it is the best money well spent!!!

Fierce Productions is a wedding planning and event production company that specializes in creating unique, unforgettable experiences in Chicago, Miami and beyond. We are a team made up of creative people who are skilled in the art of event planning and design. We are always looking for ways to think outside the box and do the unexpected. Fierce Productions was founded in 2015 by Laura Reitsma, proud Cuban-American Owner. Laura dreamt of creating an event production company that was fueled by her love of the theater. She wanted to make an impact and start a business that could give back to LGBTQIAP and theater communities.

It's hard to put to words how much we appreciate Laura and the Fierce team, so we'll just share the text we sent Laura the day after our wedding: "Laura, it feels like the most common piece of advice people give about weddings is that, 'something will go wrong, just expect that'. However, you delivered a perfect wedding. We wouldn’t have changed a single thing. What you accomplished was absolutely extraordinary. Complete magic. We thought we knew exactly what to expect, but it was so much more than we dreamed of. We are so proud of what we created with you. It left guests feeling so grateful to have experienced something so unique and loving. They’re saying it was the coolest experience and best party they’ve ever been to." A few other highlights of working with Laura and the Fierce Team: - She doesn't just see it as her job to plan the wedding; she sees it as her job to allow you to be present during the big day. Many say "it all went so fast," when remembering their wedding, but it didn't feel like that for us because Laura made sure we could be present. - She respected our vision like it was her own and protected every piece of it. - By the time the wedding arrived, she was our friend--not a vendor. And that made the experience that day even cooler. Imagine having your friend send you down the aisle...rather than someone your hired. We would hire Fierce a million times over.

From the moment we met her, it was evident that she was not just an exceptional wedding coordinator but a true artist in crafting unforgettable experiences.

Amber's presence was calming and reassuring, allowing us to savor every moment without worry. From the ceremony to the reception, everything unfolded with ease and we owe it all to Amber's expertise and passion. Amber's warm and personable nature was a delightful bonus. Throughout the planning process, she was not just a wedding coordinator but a friend who genuinely cared about making our day special. Her positive energy and infectious enthusiasm made the experience enjoyable and stress-free, and we felt like we were in the best hands possible. Our wedding day was an absolute fairytale. We couldn't have asked for a more talented, dedicated, and thoughtful wedding coordinator & team. If you want a wedding that will leave you and your guests in awe, look no further than Amber. She will transform your dreams into reality and create an ambiance that will leave a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to be part of your special day. Thank you, Amber, from the bottom of our hearts. You made our wedding an unforgettable experience, and we will forever cherish the memories you helped create. We wholeheartedly recommend Events with Ambiance to anyone seeking a wedding coordinator who is truly in a league of her own.

The actual day was seamless thanks to Erin and her team and we both agreed there is no way the wedding planning process would've gone so smoothly without her. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Erin was on top of things and she was always responsive to us and our entire vendor team. I never felt like any question or request was out of her scope and she was overall such a great person to work with.

We are event executors: organized, detail-oriented, list-makers who love nothing more than transforming your idea into an unforgettable occasion. Our role is to act as advocates for our clients. We support our clients’ desired goals in ways that make the most sense for each creative vision. We focus on managing all the logistical details – timelines, contract reviews, set up – to ensure nothing falls through the cracks on your big day.

Colleen Fahy was our coordinator, and she was absolutely incredible. Her guidance, her input, her sweet personality, her organizational skills, her foresight, her patience, her flexibility, her thoughtfulness, her ability to put us at ease… all made her so wonderful to work with. I didn’t worry about a single thing on wedding day, because I truly trusted that Colleen had helped us prepare so well, and that anything that would come up she would handle. And she sure did!! Colleen handled a lot of issues that arose on wedding day without us knowing!! She handled all communication with our vendors leading up to the wedding which was a HUGE burden off of our shoulders. Colleen spared us a lot of stress, and we’re so grateful that she allowed us to be in the moment and enjoy every minute of the day. So many people in my bridal party / other guests at the wedding mentioned how amazing Colleen was!! The bridal party / other VIP's LOVED the detailed timeline/itinerary that Colleen prepared and distributed prior to the wedding. People knew where to be and when, and didn't have to reach out to me with small questions as a result. People around us noticed and appreciated all that she and her team did, and we certainly did, too. AND, Colleen did it all with a calming presence and a smile on her face. We were so impressed. Colleen and Joan humored my many overly detailed questions, requests, anxieties, etc.! I honestly felt like nothing slipped through the cracks on our wedding weekend because Colleen and her team were there to catch it all. She remembered and honored everything we mentioned to her over the past few months (which was A LOT!)! We could go on and on... 100% recommend Five Grain Events and Colleen Fahy was an absolute GEM.

I cannot say enough incredible things about Erin. Above and beyond does not begin to cover it! Look no further for any of your wedding planning needs. We hired Erin for our month of coordinator almost 2 years in advance. From the beginning, she was very responsive, informative, kind, and helpful. I am pretty organized, and she consistently thought of questions I didn't! I was very impressed with her demeanor with myself and the rest of our vendors. Our venue required a pre-approved coordinator, and Erin took the steps to contact them to make sure she would work out, and we are so glad she did! She did everything she said she would and then some. She reached out to all of our vendors, worked with us on our timeline (many times!), attended our rehearsal, and never got frustrated even when we had a lot going on. Erin felt more like a friend than a coordinator, and we are so happy we got to spend our special day with her. Our day went so smoothly from start to finish, and we know this is due to Erin's impeccable attention to detail. If you are looking to have an incredible day with a crisp timeline and no stress - Erin is your gal!

Working with Teyanna has been a wonderful experience. As a bride who had never been to a wedding I was very lost in the planning process. I was so glad to find Teyanna and she has been my saving grace since then. She was on top of everything, super thorough, and always in communication incase I needed anything or had questions. When I did speak directly with vendors each and everyone said she was an absolute doll and a pleasure to work with. She helped me make informed and wise decisions for my wedding and definitely made me feel at ease throughout my wedding planning process. She is so helpful and knowledgeable and I definitely recommend her work to any bride who needs a planner, coordinator, or decor for their wedding. She is a very honest, kind, and patient person and working with her has been such a delight. I've learned so much about the wedding planning process and it's been so fun. Planning a wedding in 6 months seems stressful but, honestly it's been a breeze. Teyanna had taken so much weight off my shoulders and made me feel comfortable entrusting my big day in her hands. Working with Essence of Flair was by far the best decision I made for planning my wedding and I would whole heartedly recommend their work to any bride.

Our Day of Coordinator was Faith, and we felt that she went above and beyond our expectations to help us have the best wedding day we could dream of. Faith and Jennifer Fox were very easy to work and communicate with. Faith was readily available for questions and help. We don't know how we could have planned our wedding without her. Our only regret was not finding them sooner and booking more services by Weddings by Jennifer Fox so they could have planned our entire wedding from the beginning, but a Day of Coordinator was still a tremendous help. There were so many details we were unaware of, and Faith asked all the planning questions up front so that we wouldn't have to stress on the day of the wedding, and that's exactly what happened. We were stress free the day of the wedding and didn't have any vendors coming up to us for questions. All of our gifts, cards, and wedding items were delivered to us at the end of the night.

I am a certified wedding planner with a passion for learning. It all started over 10 years ago when I worked as a birthday party host at a park district, eventually expanding to fundraising events, showers, and weddings. My passion for weddings and events grew, and I began helping friends and family with their weddings. Now, I run my own business! There is nothing I love more than seeing an idea come to life! When I'm not planning weddings, you'll find me cuddling with my baby, enjoying the show Friends under a cozy blanket, or sharing a meal with a glass (or two) of wine with my husband. I'd love to chat and learn more about you!

Becca was an amazing support throughout our wedding planning journey. She was always available to answer our questions and guide us through the process of planning our wedding. Her experience and wedding planner binder helped us stay organized and on track. She gave us valuable advice on how to make our wedding day even more special with meaningful decorations, music, drinks, and vendors. We are so grateful for Yes To I Do and couldn't have done it without their help!

Veronica is truly the best wedding coordinator out there. She and her team went above and beyond and my wedding day was absolutely perfect!! Veronica was involved with the wedding planning months beforehand (unlike most wedding coordinators I spoke to!) and she was so detailed and organized that she truly put my type-A personality at ease!!! I knew I was in the best of hands after our first conversation and on the wedding day I was completely relaxed because I knew I could trust her to handle any hiccups. She also did my floral arrangements and was present at all the meetings with the venue and caterer to make sure that everyone was aligned on my vision. When she showed me the reception hall before my guests arrived it took my breath away-- it was even better than I envisioned!!! Her eye for detail is incredible and my reception decorations were breathtaking. I also have to acknowledge Veronica's assistant Sharae because she too was the best ever-- I definitely walked away from my wedding weekend with a new best friend. Sharae kept me calm and laughing on my wedding day and made the entire pre-ceremony experience SO MUCH FUN!!! Honestly, my wedding day would have felt much different if Sharae wasn't there. I actually got emotional saying goodbye because she was such an important part of my day too. I never thought I would grow so close to a wedding vendor, but I now consider Veronica, Sharae, and the entire Exquisitely Designed Events team like family. They truly made my wedding the best day ever!!!
