Wild Rose Planning & Events 

5.0

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Lake Of The Forest, KS

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!

Hey there, I’m Bailey, the face behind B&B Photography. Now 27, my love for art started at a young age so ending up here, creating art for a living was no surprise! From capturing milestones, to moments as big as “I do” - I love photography of all kinds. Need timeline help? You got it. Brides of b&b can always ask me to assist in their timeline creation.

The first time I met Bailey was at my engagement shoot on my farm. I’ve had plenty of sessions with family and individual photographers, so I am comfortable in front of the camera, but my future husband is not at all. Bailey gave great instruction and made us both feel relaxed during our session. Can’t wait for the wedding next year!

I'm your bad ass business owner, question answerer, boutonniere pinner, and type-A personality. I spend my days editing your photos and videos with at least one fur baby on my lap. When I'm not working, you'll find me binge watching Grey's Anatomy, Gilmore Girls, or Glee...also with at least one of my cats on my lap. Cats are life.

From the first meeting to engagement photos, rehearsal and wedding day, all the way to final edits Elizabeth was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. She communicates clearly and promptly and has great insight when we asked her about anything. Kyle was a great videographer and support to Elizabeth and Lindsay was amazing as the second shooter making sure two brides were fully covered. Our photos are absolutely stunning and we will cherish our wedding video forever. Our full gallery was delivered two weeks early and our preview was up before we woke up the day after our wedding! They were able to work within our budget and are by far one of my favorite vendors we used. We will absolutely use them in the future for any photography needs and I will recommend them to everyone.

Welcome! I am a Kansas City Lifestyle, Portrait, and Wedding Photographer. Growing up I always had an eye for anything artistic and loved being able to share my vision of the world. I was first introduced to photography in my senior year of high school and immediately knew that is what I wanted my career to be. I continued the venture through college and graduated from UMKC with a degree in photography. A little about Noire Studios: Where does the name Noire Studios come from? I mixed my first name and last name (maiden) together - NO (from Noelle) and IRE (from Ireland). Creating a business from a few things that capture ME!

Noire Studios was the best vendor on my wedding day! Noelle and her team made me feel at ease the moment they walked in. The day went beautifully and the images are stunning! We could not have asked for a better photographer!

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you are drawn to more unconventional venues
  • Not for you if you don't want a rustic vibe
  • No all-inclusive dining options
We had such an amazing wedding at The Oliver Building. Having the venue for the whole weekend made our weekend run so smoothly. We had our rehearsal Friday night, and brought everything over so we didn’t need to deal with it Saturday. Then got ready in the amazing upstairs suites Saturday morning. We had a great time, and Caitlin was so easy to work with! The only reason I took a star off is that we had some issues with the bar. We made it clear from the start that we wanted to prioritize the bar, and didn’t want long lines. Because of that, they said we would have 3 bartenders, and would batch some of our signature cocktails. Unfortunately, we only had two bartenders, despite giving tips for 3, and there were no cocktails batched. We did have a pretty long line at our bar most of the night because of this. All in all, it was an amazing venue for our wedding!!

Hey there! We are Butter KC- a boutique catering brand located in Kansas City Mo. We specialize in grazing tables, small bites, and custom menus. Our boutique catering style means every event is unique. We LOVE listening to client ideas and making their food experiences come to life. Whether it’s the wedding of your dreams, a garden bridal shower, or a food festival for 2,000+ we have you covered!

The entire experience with Olive Co was top notch! We contacted Olivia a few months back and were able to snag them up to do our wedding reception. They delivered! I was blown away and so were my guests. It was everything we could of ever hoped for! I also have to say the communication was far beyond anything my other vendors provided. Olivia said she would be available anytime and my 11pm and sometimes 1 am texts always got responded to. She was on it, and I love her for giving me peace of mind. Not only did the food rock BUT I opted to do our own plates (I had a vision) and forgot them at the airbnb 40 minutes away from our venue. Olivia got in her emergency bag and saved the day! She also helped out other vendors on site who were late! I just can't say enough good things and can't wait to use Olive Co at our next event. Thank you Olivia Sherri for making our weddding a dream come true.

Hi, I’m Erin and I love telling stories. I'm Midwest based, Kansas City to be specific, but I'm a Michigan girl at heart and love to travel! My favorite way to share the world through my eyes is from behind a camera lens. Your story is beautiful, and worth sharing.

From initial communication she was there to answer any questions during the whole process, even when I had a list of general wedding questions not related to photography! Erin made us feel very comfortable with our engagement pictures. She knew all the right poses and places to shoot! She also helped us keep our big day in line with a timeline of events which was so helpful. Erin made sure she captured any specific pictures we wanted as well. My entire family complimented her personality and ease of the process (multiple times too!). We had sneak peeks the same night of our wedding.

Taking the photo is only a fraction of my job. I’m the cheerleader, usher, keeper of the timeline, and stealth ninja anticipating what’s coming next. After 10 years and more than 200 weddings, I’ve learned a trick or two about how to navigate the unique challenges of a wedding day. I’ve learned that planning for the inevitable means getting to enjoy the unexpected. I’ve learned when to take center stage and be the conductor to ensure that your must-have shots are checked off that list. But, I’ve also learned when to be still and wait for the relationships surrounding you to show their beautiful touches of joy that long to be captured.

We met Deanna when she photographed the wedding of a family member. When my fiance and I got engaged, we immediately agreed on 2 things; we wanted out wedding outside and we wanted Deanna to be out photographer. She listened to us and helped us hone our vision for what we wanted. We asked her about photography, but she was also so helpful when we asked about timing and other wedding details. She is as adept as outdoor and adventurous weddings as she is with churches and more formal venues. It was so fun to see her get joy out of her art and we are so happy we got to be a part of that. I loved that she would take advantage of small moments throughout the day, but I never felt like I was being taken away from our celebration. All of our guests were so impressed by her as well. Both for the final product, but also because she stayed up just as late as everyone else to not miss a moment of the celebration. She meshed with out family and friends so well that everyone felt instantly comfortable with her, which meant relaxed and beautiful photos of all of our loved ones!

Our slideshow was lost and was only on two of the three tvs. The coordinator stayed in her office most of the day and did not come to check in to make sure no one needed anything.

75th Street Events was the perfect venue for our wedding! Laura and Howard were amazing - they were so kind and had excellent communication, really making us feel special on our big day. The venue itself is beautiful and clean, and our guests loved it. I really appreciate all the help they provided - you can tell they love what they do and it truly shows. We are so grateful to have had 75th Street Events be a part of our special day.

The Pavilion Event Space was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Their communication was fast, friendly, and extremely professional from the very first time we reached out. The venue itself is clean, with a lovely rustic charm, and completely customizable to fit our vision. They truly were a one-stop shop, handling everything from setup to catering, and even went above and beyond to ensure my puppy was hydrated and comfortable on our hot wedding day. Although dogs aren't normally allowed, they made sure my furry baby didn't overheat while we waited for the ceremony. I just absolutely love this venue and this team - planning a wedding is extremely stressful, but I would do it all over again with The Pavilion Event Space.

Mariah Selena Portraits

  • Serves Lake Of The Forest, KS

Welcome! I'm Mariah! I first picked up a camera during a summer camp when I was only 10 years old. We were given a list of different objects to photograph around the building, and I fell in love with capturing the uniqueness of things as they were. Objects that were easily overlooked suddenly became exciting thanks to a photograph. I quickly began begging my parents for photography equipment and was gifted my first camera that Christmas. Fast forward 16 years, and I am embarking on a new career, doing what I am most passionate about...capturing, creating, and bringing memories - your memories - to life.

Where do we even start? From the planning process to wedding day and post-wedding, Mariah was our absolute best decision when it came to selecting a vendor. Mariah was helpful and communicative during the planning process, especially with our questions about timeline. On wedding day, Mariah was a busy bee capturing behind the scenes photos, photos of our guests, and us. We decided to do a first look off-site and Mariah captured the raw emotion that we both felt in that moment. I don't know how she did it! As for the photos, we provided Mariah with a shot list, but gave her creative freedom and she did not disappoint. We received the sneak peek within 24-48 hours and the full photo gallery within 4-6 weeks. On a personal note, Mariah is an absolute gem of a human. We felt so comfortable and natural with her, which can sometimes be difficult in front of a camera. She is a complete goofball and will keep both you and your party laughing. BOOK HER IMMEDIATELY!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience hosting our wedding at Grand Street Cafe. The venue offers a beautiful, timeless setting with clean, elegant decor that provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. From our initial tour to the final send off, Chelsea and the Grand Street staff were sincere, welcoming, reliable, and highly professional in their communication and coordination. Chelsea in particular made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free by proactively confirming details, answering questions promptly, and ensuring everything came together seamlessly on our wedding day. We felt taken care of every step of the way thanks to her organized approach. Beyond the setting, we were also incredibly impressed by the exceptional inclusive package Grand Street offers - the food, drinks, planning, and decor were all top-notch.
