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.

Dana, Tara, and the entire Thyme and Details team are nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, their exceptional management skills, attentive listening, and dedication turned what we thought was impossible into a seamless, unforgettable reality for our September wedding. Their full-service planning is worth every penny—and more. The team handled every detail with precision and care, gracefully adapting to the inevitable twists and turns that come with planning such a major event. They didn’t just meet our expectations; they exceeded them with thoughtful touches and moments of surprise and delight throughout the year-long process. One of the standout aspects was their vendor recommendations. They guided us toward partners who perfectly matched the theme and energy we envisioned for our day, elevating the entire experience. When a major hurdle arose with the delivery timing of some rentals, Dana went above and beyond, advocating fiercely to ensure everything worked out perfectly. Her determination and professionalism made all the difference in what could have been a stressful situation. Thanks to their experience, tools, patience, and boundless endurance, planning became not only manageable but enjoyable. They gifted us a day filled with joy, celebration, and memories we’ll treasure forever. If we could relive the process, we would—and we would choose Thyme and Details every single time. We cannot recommend this incredible team highly enough.

The Black Barn Event Planning 

4.6

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Ottawa, OH

The Black Barn Event Planning is dedicated to designing a spectacular event, and the creation of memories that will last a lifetime. We believe that even the smallest details can have immense impact and meaning. We design dream events into reality and create events that are inspired by our clients visions. We work collaboratively, while providing assistance and guidance on your event, with the purpose of creating a thoughtful and envisioned celebration.

Sam was hands down the best person to have coordinate my wedding. She was efficient, punctual, trustworthy, and so unconditionally kind. As the DIY bride that I was, it was hard for me to trust others with understanding my vision. Well, I barely had to describe some details to her and she just “got it”! Let me elaborate. Due to timing, my group was unable to decorate the ceremony space day before as planned. It was a huge stressor of mine because no other party members were able to do it for me. When Sam came to run our rehearsal instead of asking me “what do you want me to do?” She asked me, “what is stressing you out”. That question was way easier for me to come up with an answer for than the million possible tasks I could have had her do. I told her how the ceremony space not being decorated before the wedding day terrified me, because I would have to have my groomsmen do it, and not be able to see it before walking down the aisle. Sam calmly responded “I got you”. Somehow she said exactly what I needed to hear. Saturday when she arrived, she decorated the entire space, and not once did I worry about it again. The first time I saw the ceremony space was, in fact, when I walked down the aisle. It took my breath away She, somehow, was able to coral my groomsmen, communicate with vendors when I couldn't, and allow my day to flow smoothly. There was not one request I had that Sam responded with any resistance, a no, or made me think any part of my vision was impossible. She offered solutions and constructive criticism in a professional and loving way. If you know me, I tend to be anxious and strive for perfection. Sam strives for perfection and has such a calm disposition. This is why we were the perfect match. I am also a bridal hair stylist/ makeup artist. So I understand the chaos behind weddings. I loved her from a client perspective, but I also pray I get to work with her as a fellow vendor soon. My other vendors expressed how lovely and organized she was. I could go on forever about how amazing and crucial she was to the success of our wedding. But, unfortunately there is a character limit. So, I will leave you with this. She is wonderful. She is precise. She is sweet. She is worth EVERY PENNY of your investment. You will not regret anything. Thank you so much Black Barn Event Planning for bringing so much magic to the best day of our lives, we couldn’t have done it without you Love, The Oaks

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Erin. I planned my wedding over a 2 year period and Erin was there every step of the way helping with vendor selection, timelines, site visits, and any question I could possibly have. She was very timely with her responses, extremely organized, and was always down to jump on a zoom call with me. My wedding would not have been what it was without Erin's help, I feel very lucky to have had her as a day of coordinator!

Kayla was absolutely incredible to work with! I would work with her again in a heartbeat. She is so genuine, kind, and on top of things. Once she arrived at the venue, I put all decision making in her hands and it was the best feeling knowing I could just enjoy the day and that she had everything else handled. She goes above and beyond and does it with grace and love. At one point, our wedding cake fell apart and Kayla immediately made herself a trash bag dress and got to work fixing it! She captured beautiful videos of our day and put together the sweetest videos that we have already watched over and over again and will treasure for the rest of our lives. Her husband is absolutely amazing as well and we were so grateful for his presence and hard work! We would one million percent recommend working with Kayla.

Our experience with SoCo 36 Events was nothing short of incredible. From the very beginning, the communication with Sara was clear, robust, and professional, providing us with the expertise and support in design and coordination we were looking for . Her invaluable expertise, attention to detail, and dreamy design sensibility truly made our wedding day flawless. Sara pulled together a creative and personalized design that perfectly captured our style and intention - to have an intimate, intentional, and fun celebration. She and her team took over vendor communications about a month out, organizing and executing our entire day in a way that allowed it flow so smoothly. In such a special, yet busy, season of our lives this was so helpful to know that the tactical details were all taken care of leading up to and on our wedding day. This allowed us to be present and soak up our celebration, which is what was the most important to us. Sara is as genuine as she is talented, going above and beyond in every single way to make our day special. We are forever grateful that we had Sara and SoCo 36 Events on our team.

Hi, were Kris & Brandy and we are the proud owners of our family-owned business Affinity Event Rentals. Since being married back in 2007 we have really had a passion for weddings.

We hope to add you and your partner to our amazing list of clients and look forward to being apart of your special day!

Based in Cleveland, Ohio, Maggie Mitchell Events is a wedding and event planning company. This team's mission is to provide effortless and unforgettable events. They are here to advocate for and create ever-lasting relationships with every client, so you can feel comfortable and entrust them with planning your most special day.

I cannot say enough good things about Maggie as a wedding planner and person. We hired Maggie to plan our wedding from start to finish and it was the best decision we made. To offer context, we tasked Maggie with taking an old, rather outdated country club, and asked her to transform the venue all while managing accommodations for over 260 people. Additionally, the country club was a complete blank canvas which required us to bring in vendors for every single detail. Not only did Maggie handpick top-notch vendors and successfully manage them all, but she did so with the most calm and pleasant demeanor. The country club manager said that out of the many wedding planners he has worked with over the years, Maggie is by far the best because she was enjoyable to work with and incredibly good at her job. We couldn't agree more. My entire family is thankful for Maggie and what she did for us. She was a rockstar from the moment we met her and even after the wedding when she kindly held a ton of wedding supplies at her home so that we didn't have to worry about grabbing them the day after the wedding. As a bride who has dreamed of her wedding day for as long as I can remember, I can confidently say Maggie Mitchell Events made my dreams come true!

They listening, they understood, they perfected everything to make the day perfect!! Connie was the main source of communication — she answered texts and emails very quickly, and was very thorough going through the timeline to make sure everything was PERFECT!

Connie was able to communicate with them all, reached out to one I hadn’t heard from in a while, and even went above and beyond to call and confirm a few orders even the day before to make sure everything was set!
