Brooklyn Rain Brides LLC

Starts at $350
Serves Belen, NM

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!

“When you think of your wedding, all you can hope for is nothing will go wrong, and if it does, it will be small. When you hire Brooklyn from Brooklyn Rain brides, you can rest assured that your day will be utter perfection. throughout the wedding planning process, Brooklyn was always there for me to reach out to and ask questions and give her professional suggestions. She is beyond wise for her years and knows everything a bride could ask in hand already. Even with me being in the industry Brooklyn would ask me questions leading up to the big day I didn't even know I had, she made sure I knew when and how to get my marriage license and took care of sending it back to the clerk for us. She handled getting the rings to the correct bridal party members and made sure to grab our vow books before the ceremony so we didn't have to remember them. My guests came to me after the ceremony and said it was the best ceremony they had ever seen and I couldnt agree more it had so much emotion, romance and pure magic sprinkled in and brooklyn was incredibly calm collected and well spoken capturing my husband and Is love story perfectly. I cannot recommend her services enough, not only can she officiate the most romantic ceremony ever She is also an incredible wedding coordinator and will make sure your wedding runs smoothly allowing you to have a stress free wedding day! I literally didn't have to handle a single thing on my wedding day because she was there to handle it all. She made all the difference plus she continued to come and check in in me to see how I was doing throughout the getting ready process and has the calmest nature helping me to feel ready before I walked down the aisle. not only did she handle coordination and officiating the wedding she sprinkled in some extra magic by taking some gorgeous photos throughout the day and sent them to me the morning after the wedding so I would have a little something until my professional photos arrived! I am so utterly grateful to Brooklyn for making the best day of my life utterly perfect. She may be based in Ohio, however, my wedding was in Michigan-she has traveled all over the United States to work weddings and is so worth it, so feel free to inquire about out of state travel. Anyone who is engaged, I can't say it enough, you need a Brooklyn to help guide you in your wedding planning!”

We plan and design weddings throughout Colorado, Northern California, Oregon, and New Mexico. Our design services are unparalleled, and our devotion to you is wholehearted and personal!

“I cannot recommend Niamh Zwagerman, Owner and Lead Planner of Sweetie Pie Weddings, highly enough! From the moment we connected with her, we knew we had found someone truly special. Initially, we only needed help structuring the wedding processional, as we had already found most of our vendors on our own. However, Niamh went far beyond our expectations. Her attention to detail and proactive approach were incredible. She reached out to all our vendors, ensuring that every element of our day was perfectly coordinated. Niamh addressed questions we hadn't even thought to ask, and everything was timed flawlessly. When we encountered an unexpected issue with the bridal changing area at the church just the night before our wedding, Niamh worked her magic and transformed the space into a stunning bridal suite. Thanks to her, my bride felt like a queen on her special day. Niamh truly made our wedding complete and perfect. Her dedication, creativity, and kindness shone through every step of the way. If you're looking for a planner who will go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable, look no further than Sweetie Pie Weddings!”

At Heirloom Design + Co., our mission is to make your wedding experience the very best it can possibly be for you, your family, and your guests. Through dedication to detail, craft, and execution, we will create unique designs and experiences that bring the story of your love to life.

“Brittany at Heriloom Design & Company is unmatched. She organized, understands the vision, has brilliant advice, logistical skills and a complete understanding of the wedding scene. But even more importantly, she is so fun to do business with. Not only did we trust her full heartedly, she also made us feel like true friends. The phone calls and in-person meetings we had were full of laughs and were genuinely a great time — it completely enhanced the whole wedding process. I was afraid we were throwing challenges her way with our big, nontraditional ideas (we wanted to do a mural, to bring in an installation, and more), but she matched our energy and made our dreams even bigger and better. She is your calm in the storm of wedding planning and an absolute light! She is smart, creative, incredibly organized, and efficient. She took care of EVERYTHING the day of the wedding so we could fully enjoy ourselves. We TRULY could not have done our wedding day without her. She is the absolute best. While I think and believe my marriage will last a lifetime and I won’t need to plan another wedding, I hope Brittany and my paths cross again in the future. She’s an outstanding wedding planner, visionary, and person. We LOVE her!!”

Our team provides wedding day coordination, custom + bespoke signage and florals, styling and design services, and rentals! We are currently available for bookings for 2024-2025. Get in touch with us to find out more!

“We had never heard of a “day of coordinator” before our wedding. Initially we wondered if we needed one because we were planning a small and short, backyard wedding with less than 25 family members. Luna y Sol delivered that and more! They made our vision an absolute reality. In the weeks leading up to our big day, they got to know every last detail of our dream wedding, our vendors, decor, schedule, details, design, hopes, and dreams. They studied our timeline and helped us re-work it so that we could maximize our time spent with our guests. They helped set up and run our rehearsal dinner for us which was a big load off of us the day before our wedding! On the day of the wedding every detail was accounted for. We’ll never forget walking down the aisle and seeing our backyard for the first time with everything set up! We loved walking around and seeing all of the sweet touches Luna y Sol curated with our decorations and some of their own. Chris did the most beautiful calligraphy for our place cards and favors sign. Our parents and families were able to help us get ready without the stress and burden of setting up and running the show, too. We look back on our wedding with the happiest and sweetest of memories because everything was coordinated so well. We absolutely needed and valued our day of coordination even for a small backyard wedding. We strongly recommend collaborating with Luna y Sol to make sure all of the hard work you have put into planning your wedding pays off with the most perfect day.”

Serves Belen, NM for additional fees

Hello there! My name is JayLynn. I am a romantic at heart, a lover of LOVE and a collector of daydreams. My journey in this one of a kind industry started a decade ago. I have experience as a bridal and wedding gown consultant, in the cosmetic and jewelry industry, and as a bridal model. My versatile background empowers me to be a knowledgeable resource and to add value to my clients experience through all stages of the planning process. I am a licensed, certified and insured event planner with coordination experience across all industries- Weddings have just captured my heart!

“Jaylynn is the most incredible wedding planner and person. Jaylynn truly is a professional, an artist, a visionary, and expert in all things wedding. She was truly the best decision that we made in the wedding planning. If you don't read any further than this, just know that you need to hire her for your wedding. In our early planning phases, we thought we could do it alone. But we quickly became stressed and overwhelmed with so many options and open questions. We interviewed Jaylynn and immediately fell in love with her warm and positive energy. It was an easy decision. Within a few months of working with Jaylynn, we found all of our amazing vendors. Our DJ, photo booth, hairstylist and baker came from Jaylynn. On our own, it would have taken months to find. With Jaylynn, it was a breeze. She introduced us to DJ Miss Haze, who is the most incredible DJ, and Nicole Bendig-Lamb, who made the most delicious cake. She also introduced us to Guiding Mountain Lion Dance, who gave us an unforgettable performance. These vendors were not only great at their craft, but also wonderful and kind people. Leading up to the wedding, Jaylynn resolved so many problems for us. The week of our wedding, a huge snow storm hit Colorado. She sprang into action, helping us to redo our timeline. We had to cancel our rehearsal dinner, so she helped us rehearse the day of the wedding, and got us into top shape in less than thirty minutes. We had an issue with a hairstylist, and she was able to talk to them and help us get a refund in less than 12 hours. The wedding day was perfect. Her team decorated the venue with so much eye for detail. She also designed our wedding website, signage, and much of our decor, and it was exactly what we wanted. The wedding day was perfectly smooth, despite the snow. It was such a joyful, perfect day. Many of my friends and family remarked on how incredible Jaylynn and her team were. To Jaylynn -- thank you again. We love you so much! Thank you for gifting us the most beautiful wedding day. Anyone who has the privilege of working with you is incredibly lucky. -Jessica & Garet”

I’m here to ensure that you enjoy the journey just as much as the destination!

“Please take a few seconds and read this review - Brooke is the wedding planner you are looking for: Brooke was absolutely the wedding planner we needed for our complex, epic outdoor winter wedding weekend in the mountains that included trains, skiing, happy hour on the slopes, and a wedding venue that had never hosted an outdoor wedding before— and it honestly all went perfectly because of Brooke. We pitched Brooke all of our crazy ideas— we wanted it to be personal, laid back, have some light traditional touches but also be exciting and adventurous— and she helped us structure and plan the wedding that was perfect for us. She’s easy to talk to and to be around during what inevitably can become a stressful process, but she will meanwhile meticulously track the details about vendors, guests, scheduling, etc… Her communication is impeccable, and we never felt like we were falling behind on the timeline or having to follow-up with anyone. She knows the best vendors in the area to realize your vision— or in the rare instance she didn’t have a direct connection, she did the research to find out who was the best for us. All of her recommendations were top tier and budget conscious. In addition to being excellent at her job, Brooke is just plain wonderful. It’s clear she loves what she does and has perfected the skill of hyping you up and helping you dream big to craft a wedding that is memorable and uniquely yours, while also providing her experience to support your through key decisions when you start to stress-spiral (and you will at some point along the way). On the big day, we were able to truly enjoy sharing time with the most important people in our lives rather than worrying about the details, because Brooke had everything handled. There may have been some hiccups, but honestly, we will never know because Brooke is a professional and probably solved them without our awareness. Her experience was priceless when working with our wedding venue who had hosted fewer than 5 weddings, none of which were outdoors in the winter. We also had perfect weather, so she may also have some influence with the weather gods… not as sure about that one, but we wouldn’t be surprised. Wedding planning was exciting but also stressful and we couldn’t imagine how we would have pulled off our wedding weekend without Brooke’s support. We were legitimately bummed when the wedding was over that we wouldn’t being working with Brooke regularly anymore. Choosing her as our planner was the best thing we did, and we will recommend her to everyone we know who is looking to tie the knot. We wish we could give her 100/5 stars. Arian and Britt”
