I'm Alyssa, and I'm so glad you found your way here. My love for the wedding industry began in 2021 when I had the privilege of planning my own wedding. From that experience, I discovered my passion for all the details—big and small—that make a wedding day truly special. Whether it's helping you choose the perfect venue, picking the best caterer, or working with a florist to bring your vision to life, I’m here for it all.

When I first started to plan our wedding I was not sure I needed a wedding coordinator but boy was I wrong! Having Lyss for our big day was a game changer. She handled so much- from helping keeping every timeline on track, to setting up decor, to steaming dresses and providing Bobby pins to bridesmaids, my niece ripped her dress and she pulls out a sewing kit and helps fix it, she even saved me with deodorant at one point throughout the day. Another thing I loved is that she took pictures behind the scenes so the next morning when I woke up I had pictures to look back on instead of waiting weeks for my photographers photos. She helped my family with clean up at the end of the night too. She never missed a beat and made it where myself and my family members weren’t running around completing tasks and could actually enjoy the day. She is professional, communicative, kind, and someone you can trust on one of the biggest days of your life. Would recommend her a million times!

Keagan was the BEST - we are so thankful we had her help! We used the a la carte options for set-up/take-down day-of our wedding. But Keagan went above and beyond and helped make everything run so smoothly! Set-up would have been a nightmare without her. She totally saw my vision, and took care of everything so I could enjoy the day without thinking about decorations/logistics. THANK YOU Keagan, this was the best money we spend on the wedding, and if I could do it again I would have hired Keagan as our full-on day-of coordinator. HIGHLY recommend.

Wild Rose Planning & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (19 reviews)
Kansas City, MO
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Missouri

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!

She has so much experience to bring to the table and comes across as effortless on her part. From day one, her organization kept me on track despite my insanely busy schedule. Most people feel that wedding planning is stressful and I actually think I had FUN planning the wedding of my dreams. She has such amazing relationships in the industry, so knew all of my vendors were trustworthy and going to make my day so special (and they did!!!). Her calm demeanor in every situation makes for the most hands free and stress free wedding day. I was so stress free and having the time of my life that I wasn’t even bothered when I got espresso martini spilled all over the front of my dress! Allyssa was immediately at my side with (a lot of) Shout wipes to take care of business and get my back to my party! She took my vision and made it reality. Allyssa genuinely made my wedding day the absolute best day of my life!

Hi, I'm Ally. I thrive on crafting beautiful events and honing in on the details that make each wedding truly one-of-a-kind. My goa is to ensure that every couple's special day is infused with their unique story, making their dreams come to life in the most magical way possible. My adventure in wedding planning began in 2022 and I've since had the priviledge of collaborating with many couples, transforming their visions into stunning realities.

Ally was without a doubt the most important piece to our wedding!! She was so important during the planning process and brought up so many good tips and tricks I would never have thought about. She gave us a perfect timeline to work from and allowed us to go about our day blissfully happy while keeping us on track with everything we had planned. We had a lot of moving parts on our day including lots of DIY decor, desserts, flowers as well as setting up a champagne tower and coordinating our guests here and there for our first dance on an outside dock - she made it all happen! She also coordinated everything with the vendors and took a huge load of the work off of me. I’m sure she put out a lot of fires we never even knew existed. She seamlessly set up the reception of my dreams and broke it all down following the reception. She quite honestly had our backs throughout the whole process and was so down to earth and extremely nice/fun/easy to work with! On top of it all, she took beautiful pictures and videos of the reception all set up as well as our first dances with our parents! None of our guests took videos of our dances and it would have been heartbreaking not to have them! She seriously thought of it all - do NOT hesitate to hire Jovial! We couldn’t have done it without her!!

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

Do yourself a favor and put your once-in-a-lifetime day in Victoria's hands. Although my daughter and her fiancee had a strong vision of their wedding ceremony and reception, they live out of town with full-time jobs and busy lives. Victoria recommended trusted vendors as needed and most importantly, helped coordinate a complicated timeline. With no "first-looks" and a large bridal party, Victoria expertly and calmly choreographed photography, vendors and family. With Victoria overseeing the details, we were all able to savor the day and witness the bride and groom's vision come to life. We had such a fun night visiting, dancing and celebrating. Thank you, Victoria, for coordinating a magical and joyous night to remember.

Rachel Lebo is an absolute pro when it comes to weddings. When my husband and I first got engaged, I felt like a deer in headlights - so many calls to make, venues to see, and things to arrange. Our very first decision, and quite frankly our best decision, was to hire Rachel. She understands that planning/coordinating a wedding is a daunting task, leaving couples feeling drained and overwhelmed. But Rachel is the cure for all of the stress. My husband and I opted for "the curated experience" on her services menu, with an add-on for a longer timeframe (more of a traditional planning of the whole thing). 10/10 I cannot recommend it enough. Rachel was very communicative, responding to emails promptly and never leaving us guessing. She is happy to call vendors and venues on your behalf, and for me, as a fairly anxious person, this was a huge relief! We told her we wanted Halloweenish/Medieval/Western inspired wedding, and she didn't even bat an eyelash. Together, we planned a wedding for 120 people at St. Louis' historic and haunted Lemp Mansion, a venue which she helped us pick out. With strong background in fine art and DJing, Rachel is extremely detail oriented, employing her signature answers-to-all-questions spreadsheet called "the document." This shared spreadsheet wrangled all the moving parts of the wedding (like contacts, dates, and and everything in between) into a singular location where we could follow along with constant updates. This came in clutch especially during the week of the wedding. With nearly a decade of wedding industry experience under her belt, Rachel dotted every i and crossed every t. Our wedding was PERFECT. Not a thing was out of place. Even when it rained as our outdoor, but covered, wedding was getting started, Rachel was loaded with a contingency plan. We had queer, Jewish ceremony, with many of our guest (and us included) falling under the LGBTQ umbrella. We felt so safe and supported by Rachel! She made sure we got to celebrate exactly how WE wanted to. Rachel Lebo is rising star in the world of wedding planning and coordinating. Our big day felt special and smooth, with Rachel guiding our guests, our wedding party, and of course ourselves. On top of her offering excellent customer service, Rachel is just such a delightful person. She is hilarious, kind, and just wants everyone to have fun on their big day.

My husband and I got married in December 2023 and used Sofi for the entirety of our wedding planning. I'm not great at, nor do I enjoy planning parties/events, but once we explained our general vision, vibe, and hopes for our day, it was obvious Sofi had a clear idea of what we wanted and she hit the ground running. I cannot even fathom what our wedding would've been like without her. Every detail was carefully curated. She stuck to our budget and honestly made everything so enjoyable with her bubbly, fun, and kind personality. She felt like (and I'd like to this was!) a close friend throughout the course of the year that we planned our wedding, and then the day of the wedding came and she was all business (I mean that in the most respectful and awe-inspiring way). Her and her team could not have made the day easier or more stress-free for us. She was on top of everything and her attention never wavered from doing everything she could to make it the best day ever for us. There was even a small detail that was wrong with our drink menu at the bar; we had incorporated our dogs' names and a sketch of them, and the wrong sketch had been placed next to the wrong dog name. We wouldn't have been upset in the slightest, and yet Sofi made a call and had the corrected drink menu on its way within seriously only 20 minutes! Our special day just would not have been the same without Sofi's calm demeanor, attention to detail, and unique eye for design.

We combine creativity and organization with a collaborative approach to ensure your event is one of a kind. We specialize in weddings, but love to plan any and all of life's celebrations.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Luna Co was one of the best decisions we made in planning a 250-guest wedding in only six months! We knew we wanted to do a lot of the planning ourselves and were initially reluctant to use a professional planner/coordinator, but with Luna Co's partial planning option, we got the best of all worlds and an incredible value for the many services that Alexandra, Jazmin, and Sophia provided. The Luna Co team kept track of our vendor contracts, joined calls with vendors whenever we wanted them to, and helped keep us organized with regular check-ins throughout the planning process. They offered recommendations, advised us on logistical questions, and focused on what was most important to us. For example, we had 20 kids at our reception, and the Luna Co team helped us come up with a "kid zone" and coordinated with our caterer to make sure kids' meals were ready a little before the adults ate dinner. On our wedding weekend, Alexandra joined for our ceremony rehearsal, and I don't know what we would have done without her. We had an interfaith (Catholic Jewish) ceremony, so it was a little outside everyone's comfort zone and there was no real template to follow, but Alexandra took charge in the most kind yet firm way and made sure everyone knew what was happening and all of the items we needed were organized and stored safely. It honestly relieved so much stress that day knowing she would be on hand for the ceremony itself. And then on the day of the wedding, we were truly able to just be present and enjoy the moment with our loved ones, because the Luna Co team handled everything behind-the scenes. That included an impressive turnaround reception setup (since we couldn't access our reception venue until later in the day), troubleshooting various misplaced decor materials, and gracefully finding spots for two surprise (but wanted!) guests. Throughout the process, the team was prompt, responsive, and professional. They were easy and fun to work with. We know our large guest count and unique venue made our wedding logistically challenging, but the Luna Co team was always encouraging, positive, and found ways to make things possible. We would highly recommend Luna Co to anyone and everyone!

Social Revel Events, led by the talented Amy, is one of the best wedding planning teams I've had the pleasure of working with. Her communication is prompt and highly detail-oriented, ensuring every aspect of the event runs smoothly. Amy and her team were invaluable problem-solvers, quickly adapting to last-minute changes like providing umbrellas for unexpected rain and adjusting the timeline effortlessly. They were a constant, reassuring presence throughout the entire process, and I would highly recommend Social Revel Events to any couple planning their dream wedding. Amy is a true professional and one of the top wedding planners in the St. Louis area.

As a coordinator, I start working with you as soon as we sign a contract. I send you helpful tips, organization sheets, etc. I review all the details you’ve put into your day and make sure nothing is missed!

Someone recently called me an "Enchanted Fairy" bride--likely because of my tulle skirt and woodsy wedding. Well, if that was the case, then Catherine was my Fairy Godmother. It has been a few weeks since the wedding, and every time anybody talks about it (MOB, MOH, Groom, etc.), we always mention Catherine and a job well done. She was extremely organized and professional... A calm and collected creative expert. When we had to devise a rain plan, she provided insights and solutions. When we had to execute said rain plan, she delivered. She helped with set up, decoration, timeline management, vendor management, guest experience, and more! She was also a friendly face and presence throughout the day... checking to make sure we were stress-free and happy. As our Day Of Coordinator, she went above and beyond before the wedding, and maintained this level of excellence until she left the venue spotless at the end of the night. We cannot thank Catherine enough for her services; She was a crucial part of our perfect wedding day.

828 Planning is a nationally celebrated event planning and design firm producing weddings, social and corporate events across the country since 2014. Recognized for our elevated design aesthetic and a collaborative, high-touch approach to planning, we channel our expertise to achieve events rooted in both creativity and beauty, with unparalleled execution.

Great experience with Union. First off, they have a beautiful space that really encompasses the vibe of downtown KC. But their service was also great to match. We wish we had gone with the full planning package instead of just the month-of-package, because once they started getting involved in our plan about 60 days out, things really got a lot easier, so I would highly suggest using them for your planning. They worked great with all of our vendors and all of our guests were impressed with their team!

If Randy from Say Yes to the dress, Carlos from Cake Boss, Jane from 27 Dresses, Mary from The Wedding Planner and Jeremy & John from The Wedding Crashers had a baby....it'd be me! Hi, I'm Alexis your wedding planner bestie with plenty of knowledge and a little sass. I was raised by the best in the business as you read and always looking for fun intuitive ways to support and cherish my clients.

From the moment we started planning our wedding, Alexis and the team at Be My Guest Weddings were prompt, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. Alexis truly understood the vision I had for our special day and executed it flawlessly, exceeding my wildest expectations. I was able to fully enjoy every moment of our wedding, thanks to Alexis and her team managing every last detail. Alexis treats each of her brides like her own best friend, and she was on top of everything, ensuring I didn't have to lift a finger. Hiring Be My Guest Weddings was undoubtedly the best decision we made, and their services were worth every dollar and more. I simply could not have pulled off such an amazing wedding without Alexis and her team by my side.

We are more than just your planners; we are your bestie guides through your bridal era. From immersive design to seamless coordination, we're here to make your dream day effortlessly magical!

We were incredibly lucky to have Whitney from Confetti Events as our wedding planner. Beyond being a close friend, she brought an exceptional level of professionalism, creativity, and calm to our wedding in August. We had a very specific and layered vision—a hacienda-inspired aesthetic set in the forests of Oregon, with elements that also complemented a golf course setting—and she executed it beautifully. She translated a complex idea into a cohesive, intentional design that felt warm, elevated, and completely “us.” What truly set her apart were the thoughtful details and her ability to make things happen, even at the last minute. When we decided we wanted an ice cream vendor close to the wedding, she made it happen seamlessly. She also incorporated deeply personal family touches, including honoring our “legacy of love,” in ways that felt meaningful and never performative. Those moments meant so much to us and our families. From planning through the wedding day, she handled logistics effortlessly, coordinated vendors with confidence, and anticipated needs before they arose. Because of her, everything ran smoothly and we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Hiring Confetti Events was one of the best decisions we made. Whitney balances creativity with flawless execution and leads with genuine heart. We couldn’t recommend her more highly! Mariel Johnny
