So, I proposed. That was the easy part. She’s all that and then some. I got blessed on this one. When she said yes, it wasn’t just yes, it was ABSOLUTELY. Say less. Now here’s where it gets real. I’m not exactly the “go with the flow” type, but somehow, some way, I ended up winning twice. She agreed to a destination wedding. Yeah, let’s go ahead and call that what it is, a major victory. Enter Destify. Options on options. Locations everywhere. And people who actually get it. They understand weddings, they understand brides, and they even made space for a groom who wanted to be more than just “show up in the right color and smile.” You know what I mean. From picking the date, to locking in the resort, to all the details in between, they made what could have been overwhelming feel smooth. Let me give credit where it’s due: Jasmine — the truth. Always had us. Never left us hanging. Tikva — a special kind of patience (and we needed that). Michelle and Kiki — thank you for getting us started the right way. And even the guy behind the website support, next level. Bottom line, most fellas set it, forget it, and show up. I wanted to be involved. And throughout this whole process, my fiancée and I have felt supported, excited, and taken care of. We’re officially riding the Destify wave. And when we land on the shore of this marriage, best believe I’ll be back with another shout out.

Anisha and the team at Mostest were an absolute joy to work with throughout our wedding planning process. Their communication style was funny, informative, quick, and concise, which was exactly what we needed as a scattered-brained couple planning a wedding in just 4.5 months.

Katy and her team were absolutely amazing. I can't imagine planning and executing my wedding without them. Every detail was taken care of, and the timeline was extremely thorough and followed perfectly. Katy and her team were incredibly attentive, not only to me and my husband but also to our parents, extended family, wedding party, guests, and vendors. During my year of wedding planning, I was extremely busy living out of town while in medical school and studying for my boards, which I had to take just a week before my wedding. Despite my packed schedule, Katy was able to relieve a lot of my stress with frequent meetings where we planned out every detail. It was invaluable to have her insights throughout the process — I truly could not have done it without her.

Hello there! My name is JayLynn. I am a romantic at heart, a lover of LOVE and a collector of daydreams. My journey in this one of a kind industry started a decade ago. I have experience as a bridal and wedding gown consultant, in the cosmetic and jewelry industry, and as a bridal model. My versatile background empowers me to be a knowledgeable resource and to add value to my clients experience through all stages of the planning process. I am a licensed, certified and insured event planner with coordination experience across all industries- Weddings have just captured my heart!

Awarded Best of Zola
There are so many words to describe the love we gained for Jaylynn during our wedding planning process. I remember booking a phone call with her two days after getting engaged and then going on a 1.5-year wedding planning journey. She helped us hand-select all our vendor team, which made our day so seamless and special! In addition, I had so many questions due to a bridal party out of state, where Jaylynn answered everyone promptly, even the midnight ones!! I am superrr type A and very much a planner, but when I tell you that, you may think you can nail down every detail, but there is so much logistics that goes into a wedding. Having a wedding planner was the best thing we could have ever done. Jaylynn brought it all to life and organized everything to have such seamless transitions. On our wedding, she had me lost for words on how well she listened to our vision and executed it beautifully. I will be using her for future event planning and highly recommend Weddings By Jay to anyone for their special day. You won't regret it!

Denise and her team were such a pleasure to work with! As a photographer I’m able to almost go on autopilot when working with Marryment because I know they are on top of every small detail! From the flatlay, to the dress, the fine details of the timeline, etc. This might be an overstatement, but it also seems that Marryment has a huge following from word of mouth and not from a bunch of mindless advertising. That tells me one thing that is most important for any planner to have with couples…Trust! Every couple knows undoubtedly that their day is in great hands with Marryment!

Imagine Thanksgiving. You're prepping the turkey, trying to find the fancy bowls, answering 1,000 questions from your fiance. Then the doorbell rings - you're letting in guests, taking their coats, trying to stop the dog from running out the door. Then SHOOT, the TURKEY! You sit down for dinner exhausted, you have one glass of wine, and then it's time to clean it all up. You realize you didn't even get to talk to your mom, or your brother you rarely see. Your wedding day shouldn't be like Thanksgiving. You should be able to enjoy every single second. With Complete, you CAN!

Complete Weddings Events St. Louis made our wedding day feel effortless, even though we know how much work was happening behind the scenes. From start to finish, they communicated with us in a way that felt personal and fun, while also being incredibly thorough about every detail. On the day of, our coordinator wrangled so much to keep everything running smoothly and the staff weren't afraid to go with the flow when we needed them to. One of our favorite moments was watching our videographer take such good care of us—he even carried my plate at dinner so I could enjoy the moment without worrying about logistics. Their attention to detail and great vibes made our day really special, and we felt so supported the entire time. We'd recommend them in a heartbeat to any couple planning a wedding in St. Louis. The photographers and videographer were so fun when we were off doing our couple photos. The DJ and Photo Booth made the reception so much fun. It was such a great day! (The photo is one I snagged when the groomsmen were getting photos taken, they used the space super well!)

BW Studio+Events is a Chicago-based event coordination and planning group serving Chicagoland and surrounding suburbs. The Studio focuses on intimate weddings with unique flair and lots of personal touches. Blair founded BW Studio after hosting a number of non-profit events and finding herself completely immersed in the process. Once she realized her knack for event organization and planning, the studio was quickly born.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Blair was probably the best decision we made during the process of planning our wedding. My husband and I both work 9-5 corporate jobs, and we knew that we needed to bring someone onto our “wedding team” that would help keep us on track with all of the milestones during the wedding planning process. From the get-go, over our 15-month planning period, Blair was always transparent about timing and was a master of following up regarding timelines, without ever badgering us or coming across as controlling. She spent over an hour discussing budgets with us and our families early on, to make sure that everything we planned stayed in the budget range that we’d all agreed upon. This was especially helpful during our venue and vendor selection process. She helped us find that blew our socks off, and also found us the most wonderful florist (@thelocalpetaler) who was able to provide us way more bang for our buck than any florist we’d be able to find on our own - a huge advantage. While we had our venue already picked out, Blair was able to recommend a food and beverage package with an available catering company that fell delivered us fantastic food and a premium beverage package that fit our budget. 

Leading up to the wedding, Blair was also a master in helping us coordinate our wedding day planning including family photos, transportation e.g. coordinating our bus between multiple hotels and the venue while making it easy for us to just focus on ourselves. The peace of mind that Blair brought us throughout the planning process, week of, and day of our wedding made having our wedding a cakewalk rather than a headache. Spending the money to hire Blair was the best decision we could’ve made for our wedding!

Have you ever been in a high stress situation and thought yourself man I wish I just had somebody that could read my mind and handle it for me? Well, that is exactly what it feels like to have Connie as your coordinator. I first hired Connie in January 2025 and I was not married until December 31 of 2025 throughout the entire process not only was Connie professional, but she asked so many questions that I had never even thought of. She had numerous family obligations and a very stressful personal life. However, I had no idea any of it was going on because that is how professional she remained on our calls. When it came to wedding set up Connie showed up and knew exactly where everything went. She never asked me a single question unless it was for pertinent information and she truly made my vision come to life. She was kind to all of my family members which I think is so important especially on a day as big as that, and she did everything in a timely, discreet manner. As the bride, I had no idea if something did or did not go right on my wedding day because I never had to deal with it nor was I told about it. Connie truly is a mind reader and was able to make the entire day go smoothly. Hiring Connie is not a want for your wedding day. It is an absolute need. I can sit here a week after I am married and say with a confident face that she is truly the reason why my day was able to go so smooth. I got numerous compliments on how well it was set up and how well it was ran, and this was all due to Connie. My entire family is thankful for her. Sincerely, A 2025 bride

I cannot recommend Kristen Caputo Weddings & Events highly enough! My husband and I had a beach wedding last month and I was trying to handle everything myself, until I realized just how overwhelmed I was. Kristen had great reviews and after reaching out, I thought she had very fair prices for her services. I hired her to be my coordinator and I’m SO thankful I did! After every planning call with her, I would feel like a weight was lifted. She always had such helpful input throughout our calls and there are SO many things I would have overlooked without her there to guide me. On the big day Kristen and her Assistant Megan were AMAZING! I really thought I was going to spend the day worrying about if things were being set up the way I wanted them. On the actual day I wasn’t worried at all, by that point I had so much confidence in Kristen I knew she’d make it happen! And she did! My wedding was set up exactly how I wanted it and everything flowed so nicely! Megan waited with my dad and I before walking down the aisle and she was a lifesaver! She held all my things and helped me stay calm! Our ceremony turned out beautifully. I couldn’t believe how pretty it looked when I got to the aisle! It was better than I had hoped for. For the reception Kristen and Megan directed all our guests while we took photos. Then they made sure we got food and drinks and some time to ourselves before the socializing. Our reception turned out to be so much fun and all of our friends and family LOVED Kristen and Megan! They got to know our guests and they just felt like family celebrating with us by the end of the night! To any brides reading this in need of a wedding coordinator/planner- do yourself a favor and contact Kristen right now! My wedding was a beautiful, fun, and unforgettable day and I owe that to all of Kristen and Megan’s hard work!!! I couldn’t have done it without them!

We booked Felic Events For our Content Creation and Photo Booth on our wedding day & I honestly wish we had came across them way earlier in our planning process because we would have 1000% booked them to be our planners for the entire wedding as well. Not only were they extremely professional, exceptional service and skill, but they were the sweetest and most intentional people throughout the planning process and especially on the big day. Natalie was with me and my bridesmaids most of the time while Hector was tending to the groomsmen which allowed them to not miss a special moment for either of us. They made sure we were hydrated, and constantly helping with literally anything we needed. Natalie truly helped me feel beautiful, calm and taken care of in the most otherwise chaotic moments. I could go on for DAYS about how amazing they are but if you want to have the most enjoyable wedding planning and wedding day, I truly recommend not waiting any longer and booking them now. It will likely be the best investment in your most special day!

Summer Gilliam made sure our wedding vision happened - she makes the perfect coordinator because she really exceeded at getting our goals met. When we started planning with her, we were overwhelmed by a lot of the logistical details, rentals, and basically making our wedding come to fruition. Not only did Summer make us feel confident with our decisions, she guided us through the process and allowed us to voice/change anything we needed to. She is a people’s planner!! The day of - she had everything scheduled and was on top of everything - from last minute decorations, set up, working with all of the vendors, etc. She is fantastic. She is completely professional, courteous, and works well with everyone. We love Summer!!

I worked with Crystal for a holiday vendor mixer, which was a beast of events with a plethora of vendors. We collaborated together on floral design colors and themes to find the best fit for the event, and I appreciated her attention to detail. She has a lot of expertise to offer, and I hope to work with her again in the future!

Hi! My name is Allie Gee and I am the owner of OMGee Events. Since we will be spending a lot of time talking and getting to know each other, I thought I would start by sharing some info about me: I'm a retired professional dancer & current dance teacher. I also modeled & have walked in NYBFW. I'm came out as queer later in life & have been loving every minute of it. I love dyeing my hair different colors. My favorite genres of music are disco, funk, & pop music. My spouse & I love to travel & have visited 9 countries so far. There's no such thing as too many house plants. I have a cat (Filly) & a dog (Finn). I can't wait to get to know you!

I recently had the opportunity to work with Allie of OMGee Events on a wedding, and she was such a pleasure to work with!  Everything felt smooth, organized, and stress-free from start to finish.   As a DJ, I really value great communication and a well-run timeline, and she made the entire experience easy for everyone involved. Her energy was cheerful, professional, and supportive—not just for the couple, but for the vendor team as well. The event was beautiful, and I would absolutely love to work together again!

Awarded Best of Zola
For my wedding, our venue required a day-of coordinator, which was the best thing that happened, because it allowed me to meet Mary Anna! When I met her on Zoom, I knew she was the right fit for us. Her kindness, her responsiveness, and her ability to answer any question you have (and there are so many!) make the overwhelming process of planning a wedding so much easier. I cannot recommend her enough, and would highly suggest hiring her for month-of coordination, as that last 30 days was such a whirlwind, and Mary Anna's constant communication - with me and with all our vendors - was priceless. She was an invaluable resource for all the questions I had throughout the planning process, she has experience with so many different vendors and venues, and she was a great support when things get stressful, as they inevitably do! On our wedding day, she was on top of everything; I literally could just get ready and be excited to get married, knowing everything was in her hands and taken care of. She is super smart, capable, organized, and the kindest person you'll meet. I don't know what I would have done without her; I know she probably had other weddings she was working on, but you would never know it - she will make you feel like you and your wedding is her top priority, because that's how she approaches her work. Our day went off without a hitch, and that is all due to Mary Anna's planning and organization. I can't thank her enough for all her hard work - she is amazing!

If I could give Eli a million stars, I would without hesitation. Hiring her was hands down the BEST investment we made for our wedding. She is absolutely iconic in every sense of the word. From day one, Eli brought a level of organization and expertise that made the entire process feel effortless. She anticipated needs before we even knew we had them, handled every detail seamlessly, and somehow made us feel completely at ease the entire time. Her communication was clear, her execution was flawless, and her presence was exactly what you want on such an important day, steady, supportive, and genuinely invested in making everything perfect. On the wedding day itself, I truly don’t know what we would have done without her and her team. Everything flowed beautifully, any potential issues were handled behind the scenes, and we were able to be fully present and soak in every moment. That peace of mind is priceless. Beyond her professionalism, Eli is just an incredible person to have in your corner. She cares deeply, she shows up fully, and she makes you feel like your wedding is the most important one she’s ever planned. If you don’t think you need a planner… you’re wrong. Book LSC. It will be the best decision you make. —The Bride Book her. Period. My only regret was not booking her the day we started wedding planning. My wife and I are very organized, type A people both with strong visions especially with our wedding. And yet, Eli surpassed any of our capabilities going above and beyond to bring our dream wedding to life. From the start, Eli combined organization, inspiration, and genuine excitement/joy into a solid feasible plan. Everyone involved in the wedding had a clear roadmap leading up to and on the wedding day. Whenever we ran into obstacles, as life tends to bring, Eli was quick to pivot and find solutions that would be even better than our original ideas. Often, she had multiple solutions for every single scenario we threw at her. In short, I would trust Eli with every single second since the day I proposed. If you’re looking for someone who can see your vision through, organize and execute effectively, and bring genuine joy to you and your future spouse’s lives, you need not look any further than LSC. I’m not really sure why you’re still reading this and not contacting Eli this very second. Our wedding day was, without exaggeration, PERFECT. And LSC made that happen. —The Groom

About wedding planners

How much does a wedding planner cost?

On average, a full-service wedding planner can cost between $3,000 and $10,000. It depends on where you live and where you’re getting married. Planners in areas with high costs of living, like New York City and San Francisco, may charge upwards of $20,000. If you’re having a destination wedding, consider using a planner local to the area—you’ll avoid paying extra for travel, accommodations, and meals. Day-of coordinators cost less. They may have a flat fee between $1,000 and $5,000, or charge hourly. Always ask about pricing up front so nothing comes as a surprise later.

What do wedding planners do?

Think of wedding planners as jack-of-all-trades experts when it comes to weddings. Many offer different levels of service to meet your needs. If you just want day-of coordination, for example, your planner will be there to make sure your ceremony and reception go off without a hitch. This may mean setting up vendors or directing your wedding party and guests to make sure everyone is where they need to be at the right time. On the other end of the spectrum, full-service planning may involve:

  • Starting the planning far in advance
  • Budget management
  • Coordinating with your venue
  • Recommending vendors and negotiating contracts
  • Staying on top of trends and making suggestions
  • Ironing out all-important last-minute details
  • Running interference with family members if conflict arises
  • Making a schedule and ensuring everything runs smoothly
  • Executing on your vision, from the rehearsal dinner to the reception

Should we get a wedding planner?

Planners are great resources and can make planning your wedding much less stressful. If you’ve got the budget, a wedding planner is well worth the investment. Planners offer different service levels at varying price points. Choose the amount of help and cost that makes the most sense for you. At the bare minimum, you need someone (hired or delegated) to help manage the event day-of so you will be able to enjoy yourselves without worrying about too many logistics. If you decide to enlist a friend or family member to take on this role, keep in mind that this person will need to prioritize your needs over their own, and will no longer be attending or enjoying the wedding simply as a guest.
