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.

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!

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.

OUR ORIGINAL WEDDING PLANNER UNFORTUNATELY HAD TO BACK OUT JUST I WEEK BEFORE OUR BIG DAY. WE WERE DESPERATELY SEARCHING FOR SOMEONE TO HELP US ON A BUDGET AND SO LAST MINUTE AND WE ARE SO THANKFUL THAT CONNOR STEPPED UP! SHE WAS ABLE TO MEET WITH US BEFOREHAND AND ORGANIZE EVERYTHING FROM TIMELINE, VENDORS, DECORATIONS, AND DETAILS I HADN'T EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT! SHE ALSO CAME TO HELP US DURING OUR REHEARSAL DINNER TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING RAN SMOOTHLY. ON THE WEDDING DAY. CONNOR WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND MADE SURE TO PRIORITIES MY WANTS FOR THE DAY OVER EVERYBODY ELSE! ONE OF MY PRIORITIES WAS THAT GUESTS DID NOT ENTER THE VENUE BEFORE A CERTAIN TIME, AND WHEN GUESTS STARTED SHOWING UP EARLY CONNOR RESPECTFULLY TOLD THEM TO WAIT OUTSIDE AS SHE KNEW THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME. SHE ALSO CONTINUALLY UPDATED ME THROUGHOUT THE GETTING READY PROCESS WITH HOW THE DECORATIONS WERE LOOKING, ASKED ME QUESTIONS ABOUT PREFERENCES, AND MADE SURE I ALSO HAD EVERYTHING I NEEDED! THE REST OF THE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION WENT INCREDIBLY SMOOTH AND SHE WAS QUICK TO HELP TEAR DOWN THE VENUE AND RETURN ALL THE DECORATIONS TO THEIR PROPER PLACE. SO THANKFUL FOR HER HELP AND WOULD ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE

So I usually don’t write reviews but I had to for this because my experience very easy and pleasant. I wasn’t left to plan my own wedding. The wedding planners here were very attentive and they basically helped me plan my wedding. Think of it like we planned my wedding together. The price was perfect too cause wedding planners are expensive. They even hooked me up with transportation and flowers for my wedding. Prestige Planning Co. was really great and I would recommend them to anyone.

I got married on a llama farm, so you could say I’m no stranger to quirky, out-of-the-box celebrations. From that unforgettable day, I realized I have a real knack for bringing dream weddings to life, no matter how unique the vision. Now, I’m here to help couples create their perfect day, whether it’s under fairy lights, in a barn, or even at a llama farm! When I’m not busy planning, I’m at home with my amazing husband, two snuggly cats, and one very fluffy rabbit. Let’s create something magical together!

As a proud mom, I’ve had the joy of watching Michaela’s journey to becoming the incredible wedding planner she is today. Espinosa Events & Weddings truly reflects her passion, creativity, and attention to detail. Michaela doesn’t just coordinate weddings; she pours her heart into each celebration, making sure every couple feels unique and special. She has a natural talent for bringing visions to life while keeping everything on track, and she’s always ready to tackle any unexpected challenges with grace. Her own wedding, held on a llama farm, was where I first saw her gift for turning dreams into reality. Now, she offers her expertise to other couples, and I couldn’t be prouder. Whether it’s a grand affair or an intimate gathering, Michaela goes above and beyond to make it unforgettable. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who truly cares and will treat your day like her own, Espinosa Events & Weddings is the perfect choice!

Hi! I'm Amber! I am a Creative Project Manager and Wedding Pro. I'm from St. Louis, MO and I have been working with couples across the state of Iowa for 3 years. I believe that every bride deserves to enjoy the wedding planning journey without stress or worry. If you are considering hiring a Wedding Planner, I would love to meet you and work with you. You can trust the "A" Team!

Amber was spectacular, hands down. We hired her for her planning services as well as day of coordination. Our wedding was DIY in many regards. We met frequently throughout the year leading up to our wedding and she made sure nothing was forgotten. She introduced us to our bartender and the person who we rented sound equipment as well as her assistant Allison, all of whom were excellent. She worked well with our family members who were also involved in planning. Our rehearsal the night before the wedding itself went off without a single hitch. She truly seemed to care about us and our day. I’d recommend her a hundred times over to anyone!

Isabel and TYR were simply the best! We may have been communicating on email, pinterest boards, instagram reels, and text - all at once!

I was truly in awe of how my event turned out. Donna of DBC Eventz INC. did an amazing job bringing the vision to life. Donna went above and beyond finding intricate items that went with the theme and thought outside the box with the decorations. The entire space was decorated beautifully from top to bottom. Donna understood the assignment and took it to the next level. Donna included me and kept me up to date on where she was with the status of my party. Donna even assisted me with finding the right person to make a cake, DJ the event and take pictures and videos at the event.

Sydney was our wedding day of coordinator, and she did a great job taking control of our wedding day. She did all the thinking for everyone, made the decisions we discussed, and executed them flawlessly. She fought for what the bride and groom wanted when things didn't go our way. She created a timeline for us and kept us on track throughout the day. She set up all of our decorations, took them down, and loaded them away in the proper vehicles. Sydney checked in on us regularly. We could simply send her a text with what was on our mind as we got closer and closer to the main event. She developed a relationship with the bride, the groom, and any parents that wanted to be involved in the 1-2 months that we really worked with her. She was wonderful. We are very glad that we had her and would highly recommend her to a friend.

Brianna and Karin were absolute rockstars! They took on a super difficult task due to the nature of the venue -- an DIY outdoor center with no cell phone reception, and key sites separated by a 0.3 mile gravel path, plus literally 7 different locations for all the different events (rehearsal, his and hers getting ready, ceremony, reception, cocktail hour, and food storage cabin). Oh, also the venue team has never hosted a wedding before!!! B&K handled it perfectly. I truly don't know what we would have done without them. Thank you for helping make it such a truly unique and special day.

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!
