LoveLee Occassions

LoveLee Occasions is a wedding and event planning business that has grown from the love + passion for all celebrations; big or small. Why not share this passion with those who need an extra hand, not sure where to start, or just overwhelmed by it all? There is just something about the chaos of behind-the-scenes that we love and being able to do that for all humans, makes our days go by fast and end our nights with smiles + appreciation.

Christina is a phenomenal wedding coordinator who always makes you feel like she has your back. On wedding day, she made sure to handle all of the chaos behind the scenes (I later found out she made several saves without me knowing!), all so that I could be present and enjoy the day. In the planning process, she worked to understand our vision for how we wanted the day to look/feel and she gave great recommendations. This is 100% her dream job and it shows – time and time again she went the extra mile for us! For example, we told her a few months before our wedding that we were considering a videographer, and she found several options for us within budget. When we told her we didn’t know what we wanted to do for music, and she provided us with several quotes for live music. In our month-before planning meeting she brought up a ton of questions that we had not thought of – and had all the solutions for us on deck! Just having a second eye on everything was well worth it – let alone the fact that she and her sister stayed until the very end of the night to make sure everything was put away securely. All in all, I can’t recommend LoveLee Occasions enough. Our day would not have come together like it did without her help!

Revel & Flourish

  • Serves Waconia, MN

Hi we are Kristina and Jody! Revel & Flourish was formed with the idea that ALL couples deserve to find happiness. Our team is here to make sure that becomes a reality for you in the most effortless way possible. When you work with us we'll personally escort you through our processes and tailor an event just for you.

Revel & Flourish was a company recommended to me through a friend and I was so fortunate to work with Kristina who made every aspect of my vision come to life on my wedding day. My then fiance and I were living in Southern California and planning a Wisconsin wedding, and hiring revel and flourish was the best money spent on our wedding hands down. Communication was excellent, we met via zoom often, and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Day of the wedding was absolutely magical and I can’t thank them enough for their hard work during a very hot summer muggy day in the Midwest. Very thankful for Revel & Flourish!

I love planning - like seriously, love it! I started seeing how friends and family were so stressed out about their weddings and wanted so badly to help. Who likes seeing the people they care about struggling and stressed out? After the first few times helping with their big days, I knew this was my passion. I truly enjoy giving people the ability to enjoy their day. I love spending time with my husband attending sporting events, playing softball, camping, and loving our fur children. I absolutely LOVE traveling, especially to DISNEY! Event planning makes me happy and I am passionate about bringing joy to your big day!

Leading up to the big day I had several great meeting with Ackin Events to help prepare me and make sure we were on the same page. It really took a lot of weight off my shoulders knowing I could work with a professional on timeline, decor and so much more! The day-of ran smoothly and was GORGEOUS thanks to Sammy and her team. They put in so much work to make sure every detail was perfect. I know that Sammy truly cared about me as a person and wanted to ensure the best day for my partner and I!

From beginning to end, our team approaches every moment with you in mind. We stand by the belief that no occasion is too big or too small to be handled the utmost level of care and professionalism. Memories and love last a lifetime.

Jacki and her team are simply fabulous! There is so much more to hair and makeup services than simply making you look and feel your best, though they will do that too! Just as important is Jacki's understanding of wedding days and special events, their timelines, working with other vendors as a team, and how best to be able to touch up your makeup throughout the day (esp those lips!) and making sure you look fresh! She takes care to listen to her clients' needs rather than choosing what style to use. Jacki is just one of the kindest, most lighthearted and fun wedding professionals out there. She would be a great addition to your wedding team and be an amazing way to start your day!

We truly had the most incredible experience with our planner, Kay. She stepped in two months out from our wedding and took over every piece of communication, coordinated everything behind the scenes, and ensured that everything was 100% ready before our wedding day. On our wedding weekend she was absolutely incredible. She was so thorough and efficient in coordinating each piece of our day. She was so patient and understanding and handled things head on as they happened. She made sure everything went perfectly to plan and our timelines were executed perfectly. She also is the sweetest human and is so easy to talk to, she makes everyone feel super comfortable. She not only coordinated our entire day but also took so many behind the scene photos for us on our wedding day which were so fun to look at the next day. She can truly do it all! We would absolutely recommend hiring Simply Elegant Group for your wedding planning!

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

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 on several occasions, and Brooklyn consistently impressed me with her top-tier communication, quick responsiveness, and professional yet friendly approach. The quality of her work is amazing - she is well-organized, detail-focused, and excellent at maintaining communication with all vendors. For the styled shoots that I worked with at, Brooklyn expertly handled the setup, controlled all the details, and ensured seamless coordination with everyone involved. I can't wait to collaborate with them again on a real wedding day and see their magic in action once more.

WHERE do I begin!? My mom and I thought we could plan my wedding ourselves but we quickly realized we needed help and that is where Kari came in. We met with a few other planners who we were not loving before meeting with Kari and we were immediately drawn in to her warm, calming and wonderful nature. She is queen and I mean QUEEN planner and our wedding weekend was 10/10 perfect all around solely because of her and her team. Kari made wedding planning...which can be so stressful and overwhelming, feel so easy, manageable and FUN. My family, fiancee and I felt so taken care of and safe in her hands I cannot begin to describe how important it was to not worry AT ALL wedding weekend because Kari had it on lock. She was such a calm presence in the wedding weekend frenzy that I was so grateful for. She was always there to answer my millions of questions and made us feel seen, heard and understood. She took our vision and made it come to life, working with our vendors to ensure our weekend was everything we wanted. Your wedding planner is THE most important person on your wedding weekend (besides your S.O. heheh) so you want someone wonderful, kind hearted, fun, present, organized, calm and someone who just gets it...and that's Kari!!! PLEASE do not hesitate booking her...she is truly a dream come true. OH and she did it all 6 MONTHS PREGNANT. Can someone say superwoman!!?!?!

Kastina is a great wedding planner who is a joy to work with. She’s responsive, professional, and fun. Her knowledge of the industry and vendors is extremely helpful. We cannot recommend her enough. We were planning our wedding from a different state and had absolutely no vision of what we wanted. She helped us figure out what we wanted and then made it real. She connected us with vendors she trusted, all of whom did an awesome job. Almost every vendor and venue we talked to knew and loved her. She has great connections and advice on the industry. It was a huge comfort to have her keeping us on track during planning. She guided us through the whole process and made sure everything got done on time. We didn’t have to worry if we had forgotten anything or were doing work out of order. The day-of help was great. We had no anxiety the day of the wedding. Everything ran smoothly and on time because of her planning and organization. But she was also willing to let us take a minute to run off if we wanted to see someone or take a few extra minutes at any time. Thank you, Kastina!

Thoughtfully designed, authentically you, and crazy-fun weddings. That’s what we do. HappiLily Events is a Minnesota-based wedding planning & design company for couples who love a good party. We specialize in making each wedding day as unique as it is memorable with thoughtful details and personal touches.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 1 year anniversary and we are still talking about the impact Lily and HappiLily Events had on our wedding day. We were, at times, planning across 3 different time zones and Lily made the whole process seamless. She kept us organized, accountable, and focused on our vision. We had some wild ideas (and frequently fluctuating vision) and she met us exactly where we were at every time - either making our dreams possible or walking us off the ledge when we really started to spiral, never pressuring us to be anyone but us. When she says “best friend-level support”, she means it. We always thoroughly enjoyed getting on planning calls with her because she made everything stress-free and fun! Lily goes above and beyond for her clients, always incredibly thoughtful and intentional with how she supports you throughout the process, day of and even the day after! We can not recommend HappiLily Events enough, our day was perfect and Lily was a huge reason for that. Pick Lily!!
