Cherish the Day 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Iowa City, IA

Welcome to Cherish the Day, you are in the right place! My name is Lisa Syring and planning/coordinating your dream day is my game, no need to look any further. Having a Certified Wedding Planner in your back pocket is a great gift you can give to yourself and then wonder how you thought you could manage without me. Lead me to your dream day and I will execute every detail (plus more)! I love to remind my couples if, at the end of your dream day you are married to your best friend, all we did was a success!! My couples entrust in us and execution is key to us.

“We could not recommend Cherish the Day enough!! I’ve been raving to anyone who asks—and even those who don’t—about working with Lisa. I initially started looking for “Day Of” coordinators when Lisa presented her “Month Of” package. It was the perfect amount of help for someone who was willing to do all of the legwork of finding and selecting vendors and just wanted assistance with the communication and execution once it was closer to the wedding date. We met with Lisa over a year before the wedding just so we could talk about our vision for our wedding and to see what areas we might need help in. She gave vendor recommendations when needed and made sure I had checklists to stay on track with booking everything. With her experience, she asked us questions about things we didn’t even realize we need to consider and gave suggestions if we were struggling. The best part was that she handled all of the vendor communication in the month leading up to the wedding, and she built the most detailed timeline for us (bridal party and vendors) to follow. My goal was to have someone that any and all questions could be directed to so that I didn’t have to add any stress—Lisa was that person and so, so much more. Both Lisa and her assistant (there on the day of) are amazing to work with—so personal and professional at the same time and there every step of the day. Cherish the Day is truly one of the best investments we made for our wedding!!”

I pour my heart into every wedding, thoughtfully weaving together each detail to create a day that feels effortless, meaningful, and uniquely yours. From the first spark of inspiration to the final farewell, I'm dedicated to ensuring your celebration is filled with joy, beauty, and unforgettable moments while you simply soak it all in.

“Working with Jenna throughout our wedding planning process has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. She truly is the fairy godmother of weddings! No matter what idea I come up with, she somehow makes it happen. She has an incredible network of contacts in the wedding industry and always seems to know exactly who to call. More than anything, Jenna has made wedding planning feel SO much less stressful. She is incredibly organized, always available by text or phone, answers every single one of my questions, and genuinely makes me feel like I can relax because she has everything handled. You can tell she truly cares about her couples and wants their day to be exactly what they envisioned. Planning a large wedding can be overwhelming, especially as the wedding gets closer, but having Jenna in my corner has made the entire experience so much more enjoyable. I genuinely could not have picked a better person to plan our wedding with, and I cannot recommend her enough.

We consider it a true honor to be a part of your big day! We love to take the pressure off of you by being by your side -- whether doing all of the planning with you, a portion or just for managing the day. We want you to enjoy the process and make sure you don't miss a beat.

“Meredith was an absolute blessing to work with. I hired her as my day-of coordinator, and I am so glad I did. She was willing and flexible in working with my budget—we moved a few things around to make it fair for both of us without ever sacrificing the quality of her work. From the very beginning, Meredith took the time to understand my ideas and vision for the wedding. She asked thoughtful questions, made helpful recommendations, and ultimately brought my vision to life with precision and care. Her communication throughout the entire process was clear, professional, and timely. She also joined the final meeting with the venue team, which was incredibly helpful. She listened carefully, caught details I hadn’t thought of, and made sure nothing was overlooked. On the wedding day, I was able to focus solely on being the bride and nothing else. She handled the vendors, guests, and every behind-the-scenes detail seamlessly. At the end of the wedding, she even took care of all the returns—I didn’t have to worry about a thing. We met up another day to pick up a few items from her, and that went just as smoothly. Originally, I thought about asking close friends to help with wedding day logistics, but I quickly realized how important it is to have a professional like Meredith. You want your friends and family to be fully present and enjoy the day—not running around coordinating. Meredith’s commitment, attentiveness, and professionalism made all the difference. She truly ensures that the bride’s only job is to feel beautiful and enjoy the moment while she takes care of everything else. Even in the midst of all the busyness, she came over to our sweetheart table, asked what we’d like to drink, went to the bartender herself, and brought the drinks to us. Honestly, if it hadn’t been for her, I don’t think I would have had a drink that night with how full the schedule was! If you’re looking for someone who will let you forget about all the responsibilities of the wedding day and simply enjoy it, look no further—hire Meredith. She will get the job done beautifully, and you’ll be so glad you did.”

“I worked with Lauren on a wedding in Colorado a few years ago and I know the bride LOVED working directly with her. The bride didn't have to worry about a thing the day of which was extremely helpful since it was a destination wedding and everyone was from out of state. Lauren was friendly, meticulous, detail-oriented, and ultimately a pleasure to work with. I am a photographer and spend the entire day with the wedding couple and it was so great to see the bride not have to worry about a thing the day of because she knew Lauren had it handled already. I have also attended a styled wedding photoshoot that Lauren and Mercedes hosted this year and that was also amazing! I was blown away by the details and overall theme to it and it made for some fantastic photos to add to my portfolio.

When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me thrifting, reading a romance novel, or sipping a fun drink. I graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management.

I'm so honored to have had the opportunity to work with so many incredible couples & vendors around the world.

“When you think of your wedding, all you can hope for is nothing will go wrong, and if it does, it will be small. When you hire Brooklyn from Brooklyn Rain brides, you can rest assured that your day will be utter perfection. throughout the wedding planning process, Brooklyn was always there for me to reach out to and ask questions and give her professional suggestions. She is beyond wise for her years and knows everything a bride could ask in hand already. Even with me being in the industry Brooklyn would ask me questions leading up to the big day I didn't even know I had, she made sure I knew when and how to get my marriage license and took care of sending it back to the clerk for us. She handled getting the rings to the correct bridal party members and made sure to grab our vow books before the ceremony so we didn't have to remember them. My guests came to me after the ceremony and said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and I couldnt agree more it had so much emotion, romance and pure magic sprinkled in and brooklyn was incredibly calm collected and well spoken capturing my husband and Is love story perfectly. I cannot recommend her services enough, not only can she officiate the most romantic ceremony ever She is also an incredible wedding coordinator and will make sure your wedding runs smoothly allowing you to have a stress free wedding day! I literally didn't have to handle a single thing on my wedding day because she was there to handle it all. She made all the difference plus she continued to come and check in in me to see how I was doing throughout the getting ready process and has the calmest nature helping me to feel ready before I walked down the aisle. not only did she handle coordination and officiating the wedding she sprinkled in some extra magic by taking some gorgeous photos throughout the day and sent them to me the morning after the wedding so I would have a little something until my professional photos arrived! I am so utterly grateful to Brooklyn for making the best day of my life utterly perfect. She may be based in Ohio, however, my wedding was in Michigan-she has traveled all over the United States to work weddings and is so worth it, so feel free to inquire about out of state travel. Anyone who is engaged, I can't say it enough, you need a Brooklyn to help guide you in your wedding planning!”

“This review is far overdue but so unbelievably deserved. I will start by saying that my husband and I got married in March of 2025. Engaged in September of 2021. We always wanted to have a wedding but having had a baby in 2023, the amount of planning and money that went into it all just kept making us push things back. There was a time where we weren’t sure if we would ever actually have the wedding we dreamed of or if we would just book an appointment at the courthouse and call it a day. I never even considered hiring a wedding planner, just another added cost, right? WRONG. Cause girl, let me tell you, Bri and Karin are the ONLY reason our dreams of a real wedding turned into a reality. We provided them with a budget and some ideas of what we thought we might like and what they came up with was truly amazing. Options galore and nothing my husband nor I would have ever even thought of. They found us a venue that didn’t break the bank and fit us perfectly. The food was delicious, the decor was beautiful and they made sure everything went to plan, on time as scheduled, the day of. ZERO stress on me or my husband allowing us to truly be present and focus on soaking up everything and everyone on a day that goes by in the blink of an eye. All for less than what we thought we would have to spend! They are sweet, they are creative, they are punctual, they are responsive, they are attentive, they listen, they CARE, their attention to detail is out of this world, they are FUN and it is evident they truly love what they do. The best decision we could have ever made was hiring them to plan our wedding. We are forever grateful for the time, effort and love they poured into our special day. If you’re overwhelmed by all of the choices and decisions out there that go into your wedding like we were, do yourself a favor and CALL THEM!!! Thank you Bri and Karin!!! We love you!!!”

As a bride and groom, there is no greater gift than being able to relax and trust that everything is under control. Thanks to them, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re looking for a coordinator who is organized, responsive, compassionate, and absolutely incredible at what she does, look no further. Thank you for helping create one of the most beautiful and memorable days of our lives. We couldn’t have done it without you! — Adrian & Ahtajuana ️”

“Working with Shaded Spruce Events was an absolute joy! As a younger bride, I was initially unsure about hiring a wedding planner, but I’m so glad I did. Their expertise was vital in ensuring our day went off without a hitch. From managing the timeline to handling setup and offering emotional support through unexpected weather changes, Shaded Spruce Events helped us create the perfect brunch wedding. My husband and I also took advantage of their rental services and signage design/printing, which saved us so much time and effort. It truly took a huge weight off our shoulders.

“Your wedding coordinator is one of the most important vendor decisions you’ll make, and I am so grateful we chose Rob. Throughout the entire planning process, he was accessible, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. On the wedding day, Rob and his team were efficient, reliable, and handled everything from setup to tear-down. They were so seamless that we truly didn’t have to worry about a thing. I was especially nervous about the décor, and I was blown away by how beautifully Rob brought everything together. He created a dreamy, romantic space that felt even better than what I had imagined. We are so grateful to Rob for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect.”
