Jazmyn was amazing from the moment we booked her as our day-of coordinator! She was available for questions while we were selecting all of our vendors and had great advice throughout our whole planning process. Most importantly, Jazmyn was essential to the execution of our wedding day! She organized all of our vendors as they came and went and did so much behind the scenes work to make sure all the front-end work we put in was carried out seamlessly. Not only did we love working with Jazmyn, but so did our families. We can’t recommend Hustle and Bustle Events enough!

Hey there, I’m Bailey, the face behind B&B Photography. Now 27, my love for art started at a young age so ending up here, creating art for a living was no surprise! From capturing milestones, to moments as big as “I do” - I love photography of all kinds. Need timeline help? You got it. Brides of b&b can always ask me to assist in their timeline creation.

The first time I met Bailey was at my engagement shoot on my farm. I’ve had plenty of sessions with family and individual photographers, so I am comfortable in front of the camera, but my future husband is not at all. Bailey gave great instruction and made us both feel relaxed during our session. Can’t wait for the wedding next year!

Wild Rose Planning & Events 

5.0

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Independence, MO

Wild Rose Planning & Events was established in 2021 by two wedding industry experts. Throughout our years in the industry, we felt there was a gap in the planning process, making it feel more like work than fun. We’re here to provide you with the experience you deserve — stress free, organized, and memorable!

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I got engaged in May 2023, Wild Rose was the very first vendor I booked (I sent my inquiry the day after he proposed). As a venue owner with more than 5 years in the industry at the time, I knew that the most important, non-negotiable vendor would be our coordinator. I knew that I wanted the full planning aspect so that I could enjoy the process as a BRIDE, not from an industry or “work” perspective. Brenna and Molly had been so amazing to work with at the venue, I absolutely loved their product and knew I had to have them do my wedding. From day one they made me feel so confident in our choices, our to-do list felt like it was handled and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They fully designed our day - stationary, florals, decor rentals, it was such a blast to have our check-in meetings on Zoom to SEE our design come together. They handled all of the vendor exchanges, including when we arrived to our venue in Costa Rica and it looked completely different than the pictures online so we ended up moving our ceremony site to our welcome party site with 24 hours to go! I’d be lying if I said I didn’t worry for a second, but I did worry - if only for a second. Truly Brenna and Molly said “we got this” and they handled it so easily. I was worried about packing two wedding dresses for international travel - Molly had me bring them and my suitcase to work and she herself packed them perfectly. When we got to Costa Rica they came to our villa to unpack and hang them safely. On my wedding day Molly steamed my veil and was actually the one to get me in my dress. They were also so incredibly understanding with everything I wanted to do to include my mother who passed away in 2021. I brought a necklace with cremation remains and they so lovingly tied it on my bouquet for me. They carried the portrait I had my now mother-in-law carry down the aisle around with them throughout the day like she was just hanging out with them. They even took the portrait back to their flat so mom was at their “after party.” Our 3 sons are the first to refer our friends and family that are wedding planning to “Miss Brenna and Molly” - they loved hanging out with them for the week we were together. Overall - I love Brenna and Molly enough to spend a year in meetings with them AND fly them to Costa Rica for a week, along with our 30 closest family and friends. Their care, attention to detail, and confidence continue to amaze me and Wild Rose will always and forever be the best thing I ever did for our wedding!

Kelsey Diane Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Independence, MO

Kelsey Diane Photography is a wedding photographer based in Kansas City, MO. I encourage my couples to just be themselves so I can capture each client's personality and love. I want to form a trusting, communicative relationship with each client so I can help them make their wedding the very best it can be.

If you are looking for a photographer who is so authentic, down to earth, and cool that you end your consultation call thinking “I could be friends with this person,” then wrap up your engagement photos thinking “I want to be friends with this person,” and then end your wedding day thinking “am I now friends with this person?” look no further. The most important thing to us when hiring vendors for our October 2023 wedding was to hire people whose work captured and reflected our own values. This meant vendors who not only work with, but proudly showcase diverse couples of various races, genders, sizes, and backgrounds. Scrolling through Kelsey’s website and Instagram demonstrate this better than any other wedding vendor in all of Kansas City. Stumbling upon her social media was such a breath of fresh air as I saw couples and love stories being featured who looked like us. In the months since, not a single conversation about our wedding has not mentioned Kelsey. Everyone from our wedding party, to family members, to guests have all mentioned how comfortable and confident she made them feel. I didn’t think we could be more pleased with Kelsey’s work and then she delivered our full album. WOW. Kelsey. Doesn’t. Miss. Every moment, every emotion, every face at our entire wedding was captured so beautifully. We are still struggling to pick favorites to print, so in the mean time we purchased a digital picture frame that serves as a miniature museum dedicated to Kelsey’s incredible talent. Our wedding is over and we live in Massachusetts, but we are already planning to hire Kelsey again when the time comes for us to take maternity and family photos in future years. In the meantime I will recommend her to any KC area bride, read the books she recommends on Instagram, and be cheering her on from the East Coast.

Welcome! I am a Kansas City Lifestyle, Portrait, and Wedding Photographer. Growing up I always had an eye for anything artistic and loved being able to share my vision of the world. I was first introduced to photography in my senior year of high school and immediately knew that is what I wanted my career to be. I continued the venture through college and graduated from UMKC with a degree in photography. A little about Noire Studios: Where does the name Noire Studios come from? I mixed my first name and last name (maiden) together - NO (from Noelle) and IRE (from Ireland). Creating a business from a few things that capture ME!

Our experience with Noire Studios was wonderful! The communication was prompt and professional from the beginning. Noelle guided us through each step and was very quick to respond to (ALL) my questions. Each image was exactly how we remembered the day and we can't wait to relive them through the years. We we're so glad to have found such an amazing photography team.

Hallie Sigwing Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Independence, MO

My work is focused on creating the kind of photos that will remind you of exactly how it felt to be in that room again when you pull out your wedding album in 50 years. I understand that your wedding is about so much more than just the photos - it’s the only day that all of these people will be under one roof.

Working with Hallie on our wedding day was the best decision we made (outside of marrying each other, of course). Photographs have always been important to me because they let you feel the memories of important moments long after the moment has passed. And that is exactly what Hallie has given to us. When I look at the photos from that June day, I can feel the excitement, the nervousness, the joy, and the love that filled that day to the brim. She captures the photos that you know from the get go that you want--the first look, the family portraits, the dance; but Hallie's magic comes from bearing witness to the small moments and details throughout the day that otherwise easily slip from memory. Our home is filled with these photos of my grandparents smiling as they watch the happiness in the room, my parents on the dancefloor, the details of our outfits, and the small looks that we gave each other throughout the day. Aside from the photos, Hallie is incredible to work with and couldn't have made our day easier on us, especially as people who get squirrely in front of a camera. She takes the time to get to know you, does exactly what she says she is going to, and is also just incredibly fun to be around. Now that we have become continued clients of Hallie, our home is a gallery of her work. I can't thank her enough for the beautiful memories that she has given us or recommend her more to others. She also bakes a mean pie and sings some lovely tunes.

With over 20,000 sqft the Oliver is perfect for everything from an intimate, romantic wedding, a throwdown party or corporate trade shows and seminars. Make history at your next event at the historic Oliver.

We had such an amazing wedding at The Oliver Building. Having the venue for the whole weekend made our weekend run so smoothly. We had our rehearsal Friday night, and brought everything over so we didn’t need to deal with it Saturday. Then got ready in the amazing upstairs suites Saturday morning. We had a great time, and Caitlin was so easy to work with! The only reason I took a star off is that we had some issues with the bar. We made it clear from the start that we wanted to prioritize the bar, and didn’t want long lines. Because of that, they said we would have 3 bartenders, and would batch some of our signature cocktails. Unfortunately, we only had two bartenders, despite giving tips for 3, and there were no cocktails batched. We did have a pretty long line at our bar most of the night because of this. All in all, it was an amazing venue for our wedding!!

Our boutique catering style means every event is unique. We LOVE listening to client ideas and making their food experiences come to life. Whether it’s the wedding of your dreams, a garden bridal shower, or a food festival for 2,000+ we have you covered!

The entire experience with Olive Co was top notch! We contacted Olivia a few months back and were able to snag them up to do our wedding reception. They delivered! I was blown away and so were my guests. It was everything we could of ever hoped for! I also have to say the communication was far beyond anything my other vendors provided. Olivia said she would be available anytime and my 11pm and sometimes 1 am texts always got responded to. She was on it, and I love her for giving me peace of mind. Not only did the food rock BUT I opted to do our own plates (I had a vision) and forgot them at the airbnb 40 minutes away from our venue. Olivia got in her emergency bag and saved the day! She also helped out other vendors on site who were late! I just can't say enough good things and can't wait to use Olive Co at our next event. Thank you Olivia Sherri for making our weddding a dream come true.

Erin was wonderful from the first chat we had with her. She made everything from our engagement session to check ins before the big day, to all aspects of wedding photography have such ease. We feel so fortunate to have found her, especially as a queer couple and the industry being filled with "bride and groom" talk, she didn't skip a beat at making us both feel special as the brides.

Taking the photo is only a fraction of my job. I’m the cheerleader, usher, keeper of the timeline, and stealth ninja anticipating what’s coming next. After 10 years and more than 200 weddings, I’ve learned a trick or two about how to navigate the unique challenges of a wedding day. I’ve learned that planning for the inevitable means getting to enjoy the unexpected. I’ve learned when to take center stage and be the conductor to ensure that your must-have shots are checked off that list. But, I’ve also learned when to be still and wait for the relationships surrounding you to show their beautiful touches of joy that long to be captured.

We met Deanna when she photographed the wedding of a family member. When my fiance and I got engaged, we immediately agreed on 2 things; we wanted out wedding outside and we wanted Deanna to be out photographer. She listened to us and helped us hone our vision for what we wanted. We asked her about photography, but she was also so helpful when we asked about timing and other wedding details. She is as adept as outdoor and adventurous weddings as she is with churches and more formal venues. It was so fun to see her get joy out of her art and we are so happy we got to be a part of that. I loved that she would take advantage of small moments throughout the day, but I never felt like I was being taken away from our celebration. All of our guests were so impressed by her as well. Both for the final product, but also because she stayed up just as late as everyone else to not miss a moment of the celebration. She meshed with out family and friends so well that everyone felt instantly comfortable with her, which meant relaxed and beautiful photos of all of our loved ones!

Angi’s Art became a reality in 2004, and I have had fun photographing wonderful moments ever since. Weddings are my absolute favorite!!

If you put thought into it, I want to artistically document it for you.

I love the energy Angi puts off! She was amazing, she made us feel comfortable and gave us positive energy! She was so funny and made the day special for us! Her photos are absolutely amazing.

We were given a list of different objects to photograph around the building, and I fell in love with capturing the uniqueness of things as they were. Objects that were easily overlooked suddenly became exciting thanks to a photograph. I quickly began begging my parents for photography equipment and was gifted my first camera that Christmas. Fast forward 16 years, and I am embarking on a new career, doing what I am most passionate about...capturing, creating, and bringing memories - your memories - to life.

Where do we even start? From the planning process to wedding day and post-wedding, Mariah was our absolute best decision when it came to selecting a vendor. Mariah was helpful and communicative during the planning process, especially with our questions about timeline. On wedding day, Mariah was a busy bee capturing behind the scenes photos, photos of our guests, and us. We decided to do a first look off-site and Mariah captured the raw emotion that we both felt in that moment. I don't know how she did it! As for the photos, we provided Mariah with a shot list, but gave her creative freedom and she did not disappoint. We received the sneak peek within 24-48 hours and the full photo gallery within 4-6 weeks. On a personal note, Mariah is an absolute gem of a human. We felt so comfortable and natural with her, which can sometimes be difficult in front of a camera. She is a complete goofball and will keep both you and your party laughing. BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY!

Hi there, I'm Emma, the owner and lead designer of Floriography. With over 8 years of experience in floral design and hundreds of weddings brought to fruition, you can entrust me with the design of one of your most special days. I take on a very limited amount of weddings each year to ensure each couple the dedication and attention their wedding deserves and it's my pleasure to assist in bringing their visions to life!

Booking Emma for our wedding florist was one of the best choices we made for our wedding day. We met with Emma for the first time over two years before our wedding day, and truly felt that we could immediately trust her to bring to life the dream we had. Florals were a very important part of our wedding design for me, and Emma truly knocked it out of the park. It was easy to tell that she had meticulously planned every detail and hand picked every single flower that went into our wedding day designs. Her work was so stunning, from the bouquets, to the smaller arrangements, to the massive hanging installation she designed and executed for our head table. The statement pieces were so beautiful have been talked about by our guests non stop since our wedding day. Emma was extremely easy to communicate with throughout the entire process, and we cannot recommend her enough!
