  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $30
  • Serves Columbia, MO

Rice + Co. Events was founded in March 2022 as Charley Rice Weddings with the vision of bringing intimacy and personality back into weddings. Charley was ordained by the American Marriage Ministries that same month and began performing ceremonies shortly after. In January of 2023, she began accepting coordination clients as well. Since then the business has grown almost entirely from word-of-mouth. Currently, Charley Rice Weddings offers three comprehensive officiating packages and two comprehensive coordination packages in addition to event rentals, honeymoon planning, and other add-ons.

As a wedding photographer, I work with tons of different vendors. Some of which, truly stand out - like Charley Rice. Charley and her team were phenomenal! They are so easy to work with, so welcoming, and SO detailed. My assistant and I were in awe of their photographer packet that was emailed prior to the wedding! It outlined the entire day for us perfectly. Sometimes, as a photographer, we are expected to lead the day and it can be a huge weight while trying to also document the day to the fullest extent. Having Charley and her team was like a breath of fresh air. I was able to talk through any hiccups with Charley and didn’t feel like the day was on my shoulders - her team wholeheartedly lead the entire day. If you are in the market for a wedding coordinator…. Look no further. Charley Rice is the best investment!

Hi! I'm Brooklyn - the owner! I'm 22 years old & happily married to my best friend, Michael. Traveling is a huge part of our lives, WDW is our happy place, & our next adventure is never far away. When I'm not at a wedding, you can find me in the flower shop or doing some *light* retail therapy. I recently graduated from KSU with a B.S. in Hospitality & Event Management. I have had the opportunity to work with some amazing couples & vendors in several states. I even spent time in FL working closely with one of the world's leading entertainment companies bringing hundreds of fairytale weddings & events to life. Now, I'm making magic of my own!

I had the pleasure of working with Brooklyn Rain Brides LLC for a styled shoot. Her communication style was clear, responsive, and professional. Brooklyn came super organized and made sure every part of the shoot went as accordingly. She even brought food for us and all of the photographers which was super kind! Highly recommend their services to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding planning experience.

Team Yellow Rose truly brought our vision to life. From our initial consultation, I knew that Isabel and I were on the same page. Isabel was creative with different ways to maintain our budget. She went above and beyond by MAKING CANDLES in the exact shade I wanted when we could not find any. Though we did not meet in person often, she was always a quick text or call away which we really valued. I can't thank this team enough for making our dream wedding a reality.

I have been coordinating events for 5+ years and fell in love with the methodical creation that comes from planning each different event. Each event is different and has it's own challenges which makes the entire process that much more exciting.

Audrei from Luxury Affairs was so helpful for our Day of Coordination on our wedding. She was flexible, communicative, and seemed to be everywhere we needed her to be! Audrei is very efficient and was able to be the eyes and ears that I couldn't be day of. She kept the whole day running smoothly and we are so appreciative!

Gathered Wedding Planning was an invaluable partner in planning my wedding. Bailey was available when needed, with a warm communication style that put me at ease during the stressful planning process. She expertly coordinated with vendors and family members on my behalf, allowing me to truly enjoy my special day knowing everything was in good hands. The quality of Bailey’s work was exceptional - she brought immense skill and care to ensuring my vision came to life seamlessly.

When it was time to leave, my bag was packed in the get away car with dessert and drinks! I highly recommend Gathered - they genuinely care and deliver exceptional service that is worth every penny.

Enchanted Weddings by BK

At Enchanted Weddings by B&K, our passion for event coordination is the heart and soul of our business. It is this love for creating memorable and flawlessly executed events that drives us to provide the highest level of service to our clients. We understand that your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and we are committed to making it perfect in every way.

Brianna and Karin were absolute rockstars! They took on a super difficult task due to the nature of the venue -- an DIY outdoor center with no cell phone reception, and key sites separated by a 0.3 mile gravel path, plus literally 7 different locations for all the different events (rehearsal, his and hers getting ready, ceremony, reception, cocktail hour, and food storage cabin). Oh, also the venue team has never hosted a wedding before!!! B&K handled it perfectly. I truly don't know what we would have done without them. Thank you for helping make it such a truly unique and special day.

Callie Gray Weddings And Events 

5.0

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Columbia, MO for additional fees

Callie has known that she has wanted to plan events since she was in high school. She has always had a knack for planning and executing events. Callie is a CWEP (Certified Wedding and Event Planner) and possesses a Bachelors of Science in Hospitality Management from the University of North Texas. She has over eight years of experience in the field not only with owning CGWE, but also working for various DFW vendors and venues and has had the honor of interning for celebrity wedding planner, David Tutera, twice on his bridal show circuit.

I happened upon Callie on instagram in the early stages of wedding planning hoping to find someone that could help me narrow things down so I could actually begin the planning process. From my husband & I's first call with Callie I knew she would be perfect to help us with our wedding day. She is such a calm presence and someone to call on anytime with any questions. She gave me all of her recommendations for vendors and helped me narrow things down right away which was life saving because there are just too many vendors out there to go through alone. Knowing that she knew everyone she was recommending to us and had worked with them in the past gave me such ease and confidence. Now, my wedding day... OMG my wedding day. It was so relaxing. Stressed would not even be anywhere near how I felt. I showed up to the venue and Callie was there, biggest smile, handling all the things. She checked on me multiple times making sure I had everything I needed as well as my whole bridal party. The whole wedding ran so smoothly, everything was on time... I could go on and on. I am so lucky that after this I can now truly call Callie my friend. Truly the best in the business. My wedding would not have been ANYTHING close to what I was without her. We are forever grateful!!!!!
