Jazmyn did an AMAZING job. I met with her twice before the wedding to go over any details and my timeline. Jazmyn was always a text or email away to answer any questions I had. She also contacted all my vendors to ensure they were ready to go! She ran the rehearsal, so everyone knew exactly what their part was. She went above & beyond to ensure our day went smoothly. She is incredible! I would highly recommend!

Rach was amazing to work with, and the virtual wedding planner system was so helpful! Rach gave me so many resources, from preferred vendors, to budget outlines to checklists of tasks to complete, to long notes on every single question I would ask! She was SO, so lovely and positive through the whole experience, and working with her team on the day-of was amazing. They even went above and beyond to make a "surprise" my dad wanted work out perfectly! The whole Whatever is Lovely Events team is A and I could not recommend working with them more!!

Wild Rose Planning & Events 

5.0

  • 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!

To put it simply, Ally is incredible. This past weekend, Ally helped quarterback what is now the best day of my life. Leading up to our large wedding, she was incredible at communicating with my family and I, and all of the vendors. She creates an amazing timeline and can offer so many suggestions based off of her experiences in the industry. Ally is hands on and helped us create a beautiful space inside our venue. She does it all! Ally kept everything running smoothly with all vendors, and kept us on schedule and helped us adapt to any of the minimal issues that were out of our control.

Teyanna was absolutely everything and more! I hired her for day of coordination, decor and florals. She exceeded my expectations. We had a South Asian Muslim wedding. She took the time to listen and understand my culture, wishes and vision. She was extremely realistic and reminded me of my budget and what I could do vs not do. I’m a project manager and extremely Type A. It’s hard to impress me, but she was not only able to impress me but was a step ahead. She and I worked on a timeline and had multiple versions to make sure everything was accounted for. She started advising me several months ahead of my wedding. I’m so grateful for her, it’s so important to have someone day of. If you’re gonna spend tens of thousands of dollars on a wedding HIRE TEYANNA so you can enjoy the day you spent so much time and money on. Teyanna and her team worked so freaking hard, more than anyone I know. I don’t think my wedding would’ve been the way it was without.

100/100 - would hire again. I knew that hiring a wedding planner wasn’t just a want, but an absolute NEED for us (for me, really). And once that decision was made, I went to all my trusty wedding vendor friends and read all of their vendor recommendations and found Sofi. The moment we had our first call to the day of, Sofi was a gem! On our initial call she asked what my budget was and details/vision of our day and recommended what service we should go with - there was NO pressure at all. Working with Sofi, I felt like I had someone in my corner. She was there if/when I needed her. I also appreciated the reminder emails she would send out to help keep us on track! Our day would not have been as perfect as it was without her. From start to finish, utter perfection. Even with the little snaffoo with the caterer, Sofi made sure I got something to eat (lactose intolerance brides IYKYK). Hiring Sofi and getting to know her was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Wonderful human all around!

I created Living Moments because I have always had a passion for planning special events. I have worked in nursing since I was 16 but my passion for event planning and organizing has always shined through. After the Pandemic, I decided to walk away from nursing and finally pursue my dream job by becoming a certified Wedding/Event planner & coordinator! I love helping people and I pour my heart into everything I do.

My name is Steph Stanglin and I am an experienced wedding and special event planner! My goal is to create lifelong memories for my couple through beautiful, customized bridal events. Some fun facts about me are: I have 2 cats (Milo and Kiro) and 1 dog (Rory), My goal is to visit every state and continent before I turn 40, I'm a certified Swiftie, and Reality TV and chocolate are my guilty pleasures. Most likely to be seen carrying a binder and crying at first looks and vows.

I cannot say thank you enough to Steph! She was absolutely amazing. She was so committed to learning what aspects of the wedding were most important to us and making sure they happened on the day of. For example, we were getting caught up in the dancing and were going to skip the cake cutting. She didn’t push, she just asked, “Are you sure? You told me that this was something that was important to you, so I just want to check”. And I’m so thankful she did that, because it’s one of my favorite wedding moments! She went absolutely above and beyond for us. I am currently in medical school and was so stressed leading up to the wedding, but Steph made me feel like it was possible. She was so organized and wrote out every detail we discussed. She went out of her way to suggest some vendors we were struggling to book last minute, and the list goes on. I cannot recommend Steph enough. She is wonderful and sweet and kind and I cannot believe I found her! We could not have done it without her.

Kahn Creative Co. exists to serve couples in making their day easy, special and unique. I love the satisfaction of turning a backyard into a dreamy weddingscape or letting a venue's natural beauty shine alongside personalized touches of the couple. As great as weddings are, they are stressful, and if I can help alleviate some of that stress, I want to! Using my natural gifts, I handle all the logistics, details, troubleshooting, and organization leading up to the wedding, and I do all of it so that a couple can truly enjoy her day with their closest friends and family.

I knew immediately hiring Emily was the best money I spent on my wedding. She was communicative the entire time, had great input, and was very organized. Emily went above and beyond day of, showed up when and where she needed to. She absolutely killed getting the venue ready and I fully trusted her to make any decisions day of. Aside from how hard she worked for us Emily is the kindest and sweetest person. I couldn't recommend her enough.

Callie Gray Weddings And Events

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Independence, 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!!!!!

Becky was absolutely amazing to work with. We planned our wedding during Covid and had many changes to our plans and Becky helped us navigate it all. Becky, Heather, and Kari were all there on our wedding day and I didn’t worry about a single thing. It was the most relaxed I had been and we can’t thank them enough!!! Becky and her team are top notch and you won’t regret hiring them.

I love love stories! The small part I play in my clients love story is what drives me to do what I do. I love to make sure their special day is unique, beautiful and memorable. I take care of all aspects of the wedding day so my clients are free to party and enjoy their day-stress-free! I encourage my couples to think outside of the box and put their own stamp on their wedding using their love story, hobbies, and even furbabies to make their event absolutely perfect for them!

Maya was super wonderful for our wedding, she was the only person we met with for wedding planners that genuinely cared about us and what we wanted for our big day. She was super helpful with pulling everything together and helping us hunt down any missing pieces we wanted. She was super on top of stuff but was still able to have fun with us and bring everything so beautifully together. She also had my back through the whole process because there was other stuff going on with my family and she was there for me and was ready to help me out with whatever I needed to help deal with all of it. She was so amazing and I would recommend her a million times over to anyone.
