Wild Rose Planning & Events 

5.0

  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Merriam, 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!

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.

Avenue Design Studio - Wedding Planning 

5.0

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Merriam, KS

At Avenue Design Studio, we began as a floral business, but quickly realized we could offer so much more to our clients. Over our 10+ years of working with couples on those special lifetime moments, we found ourselves stepping in to assist our brides and event clients with planning, vendor coordination, and overall event management. This inspired us to shift our focus and create Avenue Design Studio, a full-service event planning and design company. Whether you’re looking for full-service planning or just need assistance with specific aspects, we provide multiple packages and a la carte options to fit your needs. You dream it, we create it.

From start to finish working with Avenue Design Studio was a fantastic experience! I had an initial call with Chad and based on that I knew they were professionals who could bring my vision to life through floral design and day of coordination. Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!

At least, it seemed like that to me I had nothing to worry or stress about the day of, and I have to give her credit for that! My biggest regret is not having found her sooner, because I would've loved her assistance in planning our wedding and helping with travel arrangements for our out of town guests.

Our teams specializes in creating unforgettable, luxurious experiences that celebrate the greatest expressions of love. From lavish multi-day affairs to intimate elopements and unforgettable proposals, we approach every romantic celebration with a wholehearted commitment to excellence. The Duchess passionately empowers every beautifully unique couple to realize their vision and make their dreams come true. Whether you're seeking full-service wedding curation or month-of coordination, the Duchess walks alongside you, building a foundation of trust and confidence that allows you to truly soak in every moment on the best day of your life.

There are no words to articulate how incredible the Duchess of Denver is! Alexander went above and beyond every single step of the way in planning and executing our 3-day wedding weekend. We'd originally hired a different full-service firm and after 8 months of working together, it was clearly not the right fit. The Duchess swooped in with less than 6 months until the big day and I knew right away that he was the one for me. Together, we revisited every haphazard decision I'd made to ensure it would not only appease us, but truly light our souls on fire. He approached each and every aspect with the utmost attention to detail and a genuine commitment to bringing our vision to life. He even engaged my then-fiancé in the process, despite my insisting that he had zero interest. Alex helped him find countless reasons to LOVE being involved with the planning process, which is priceless to me. Alex is assertive when he should be but is always warm, kind, funny, and compassionate. He consistently prioritized accommodating my autistic brother and other guests with health concerns or special needs. He's incredibly knowledgeable about Jewish weddings and helped us weave meaning and tradition throughout our wedding day. Needless to say, the entire weekend was PERFECTLY executed and most importantly, we felt ZERO anxiety. Our families absolutely adored the whole Duchess team - my (difficult to impress) Dad even joked that there must be 3 Alex's because he was everywhere! He flawlessly navigated challenging family dynamics and made sure that everyone felt like a VIP. Did I mention that we had 106 guests travel across the country for the wedding? He was pretty much famous among our guests by the end of the weekend and every bride-to-be in attendance wanted his contact info. I had the honor of being Alex's first full-service bride under his own firm/the Duchess of Denver brand, but I am confident that he will be fully booked in no time, so don't snooze on hitting that contact button! There is truly no one like him. Hiring the Duchess of Denver was by far the best decision we made when planning our dream wedding weekend.

For example, we were getting caught up in the dancing and were going to skip the cake cutting. She didn’t push, she just asked, “Are you sure? You told me that this was something that was important to you, so I just want to check”. And I’m so thankful she did that, because it’s one of my favorite wedding moments! She went absolutely above and beyond for us. I am currently in medical school and was so stressed leading up to the wedding, but Steph made me feel like it was possible.

She expertly coordinated with vendors and family members on my behalf, allowing me to truly enjoy my special day knowing everything was in good hands. The quality of Bailey’s work was exceptional - she brought immense skill and care to ensuring my vision came to life seamlessly. From decor to timeline management, Bailey handled every last detail with precision and heart. My only regret is not hiring her for the welcome party as well! I didn't have to worry about a thing on my wedding day thanks to Bailey’s thorough planning and graceful handling of any issues that came up. When it was time to leave, my bag was packed in the get away car with dessert and drinks! I highly recommend Gathered - they genuinely care and deliver exceptional service that is worth every penny.

Kahn Creative Co. exists to serve couples in making their day easy, special and unique. I love the satisfaction of turning a backyard into a dreamy weddingscape or letting a venue's natural beauty shine alongside personalized touches of the couple. As great as weddings are, they are stressful, and if I can help alleviate some of that stress, I want to! Using my natural gifts, I handle all the logistics, details, troubleshooting, and organization leading up to the wedding, and I do all of it so that a couple can truly enjoy her day with their closest friends and family.

I knew immediately hiring Emily was the best money I spent on my wedding. She was communicative the entire time, had great input, and was very organized. Emily went above and beyond day of, showed up when and where she needed to. She absolutely killed getting the venue ready and I fully trusted her to make any decisions day of. Aside from how hard she worked for us Emily is the kindest and sweetest person. I couldn't recommend her enough.

Callie Gray Weddings And Events

  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Merriam, KS for additional fees

Callie has known that she has wanted to plan events since she was in high school. She has always had a knack for planning and executing events. Callie is a CWEP (Certified Wedding and Event Planner) and possesses a Bachelors of Science in Hospitality Management from the University of North Texas. She has over eight years of experience in the field not only with owning CGWE, but also working for various DFW vendors and venues and has had the honor of interning for celebrity wedding planner, David Tutera, twice on his bridal show circuit.

I happened upon Callie on instagram in the early stages of wedding planning hoping to find someone that could help me narrow things down so I could actually begin the planning process. From my husband & I's first call with Callie I knew she would be perfect to help us with our wedding day. She is such a calm presence and someone to call on anytime with any questions. She gave me all of her recommendations for vendors and helped me narrow things down right away which was life saving because there are just too many vendors out there to go through alone. Knowing that she knew everyone she was recommending to us and had worked with them in the past gave me such ease and confidence. Now, my wedding day... OMG my wedding day. It was so relaxing. Stressed would not even be anywhere near how I felt. I showed up to the venue and Callie was there, biggest smile, handling all the things. She checked on me multiple times making sure I had everything I needed as well as my whole bridal party. The whole wedding ran so smoothly, everything was on time... I could go on and on. I am so lucky that after this I can now truly call Callie my friend. Truly the best in the business. My wedding would not have been ANYTHING close to what I was without her. We are forever grateful!!!!!

We are here to take care of you.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I hired Mostly Becky to do planning and design for our wedding in Des Moines, Iowa. We both had recently moved to Des Moines from Chicago, so we had about 200 guests coming from out of town and wanted to ensure that we had a magical wedding for them to attend. Mostly Becky delivered. Mostly Becky's professional team met with us at every step in the process. My wife had a strong vision of what she wanted the wedding to be like, the vibes, and many of the specifics. They were able to make our dreams a reality. I cannot imagine a more professional, competent, and reassuring group to make the stress of wedding planning go as smoothly as possible. If you are looking to hire a wedding planner in Des Moines (or anywhere else that Mostly Becky operates), lock them down early.
