I loved All Set Events! We used their day of coordinator and DJ service. It was very important to me that the DJ be bilingual and Eden my DOC found someone good for me.

Ally was always very organized, on time, helpful, and full of great ideas.

I had the pleasure of working with Sofi for our wedding, and I can confidently say that choosing them was one of the best decisions we made! From start to finish, Sofi was an absolute dream to work with. Right from our first meeting, Sofi listened attentively to our vision and helped bring it to life in a way that was far beyond our expectations.

Their attention to detail was unmatched, ensuring that every little aspect of the day, from the flowers to the seating arrangement, was flawless.

They coordinated with vendors, kept the timeline on track, and made sure we could enjoy every moment without any worries.

With over a decade of experience and 400+ weddings celebrated, we know that planning your dream day doesn't always happen during a standard 9-to-5. At Confetti Events, we specialize in crafting bespoke, effortless weddings that truly reflect your vision and personality. To ensure we are always there when you need us most, we offer dedicated late-night office hours, making us accessible to answer any planning questions as they arise. 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

Let's talk wedding planning. It can feel stressful handling a potentially large investment all the while you navigate social norms and your own expectations. You might be asking yourself questions like, "How much should something like that cost? How will it all come together? Am I on track with my time and my money?". These are questions we can answer, as well as hundreds of others that are bound to arise. We can talk budgets, timelines, Vendor selection, and design elements. Don't do it alone, let us make it easy!

Megan was absolutely fantastic. My husband and I were so relieved when we found her on Zola and hired her to help coordinate our wedding. Megan was organized, friendly, kind, patient, and fun. She was absolutley incredible to work with, and I cannot recommend her and Heidi enough. Megan, thank you for all you did to make our wedding day the best day ever!

  • Serves Shawnee Mission, KS

I started out in project management and then went into transportation. In 2015 I started my first company as a military contractor as a Logistics Broker. Even though that paid the bills I have always had a passion for baking and decorating, and that seemlessly morphed into the love of cooking in general. I would get asked by friends and family to make things, or cater a party, that then become me decorating and/or planning the whole thing. I absolutely loved it but was scared to jump into a totally different line of work. My tribe would constantly tell me that I need to do this for a living because I have a gift!

Nikki planned and catered my husband's 50th birthday party. Decorations were perfect. Taco/Chipotle bar was amazing! Highly recommend her services.

Wild Rose Planning & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (19 reviews)
  • Offers 3 services
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Shawnee Mission, 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!

We hired Jazmyn for month of coordination & day of coordination. I cannot explain the value, organization & peace of mind Jazmyn brought to the table for us. She was always SO responsive to emails and questions, was flexible to our schedule for calls and meetings, and made wedding day go seamlessly. She picked up on small details and planned for things we hadn't thought of. She communicated with our vendors in ways I didn't even realize, and was always two steps ahead. Multiple people on wedding day told me how helpful and awesome she was! She was patient and kind to all questions, calm and collected in times of (my) stress, and truly a friend to me in the planning process. I wanted to *just* be a bride on wedding day and not have to worry about vendor arrivals, setup/teardown, emergencies, etc. She handled everything with such professionalism, efficiency and grace. We even hired her for our rehearsal dinner which was absolutely worth it!! If you are worried about the details of your day and want to hand it off to someone you can 100% trust- Jazmyn is your girl!!!!!! Additionally- we used Jazmyn's content creation team for wedding day which was 10/10 worth it! I didn't think I would care about having behind the scenes videos/photos, but it was so special to wake up with 500 videos on my phone from wedding day. Our full photo gallery will take a couple months so it's nice to have those items to look back on in the meantime! It would be a great option for someone not wanting to invest in a true videography team.

They went above and beyond, spending countless hours that morning to ensure everything was perfect. Chad's attention to detail and tireless efforts truly made our wedding day special. We couldn't have pulled it off without the Avenue Design Studio team, and we are so grateful for their professionalism and responsiveness in a stressful situation.

Where do I begin?! Whatever is Lovely is by far THE BEST decision I made during the entire wedding planning process. I picked partial planning but they truly went above and beyond - it almost felt like I got the full planning services with the amount of love and dedication they bring to the table. Rach and her team were always so quick to respond whenever I had questions - which usually happened at like midnight when I couldn’t sleep. My entire planning process and wedding day was done thoroughly, thoughtfully and intentionally. They brought my visions and inspo pics to life. I feel like our entire wedding exceeded my pinterest board inspirations. I had many family members and guests approach me talking about how impressed they were with my wedding planner and vendor team. We last minute had to change to a weather / rain back up plan - Rach and her team kept me calm and helped create the best plan possible. The rain plan ended up being even better than the original plans. I have so much love for Whatever is Lovely and I wish I could get married every weekend if it meant I got to work with them again. They coordinated the smallest of details that I would have never thought of myself. Rach and her team also care about building lasting and genuine connections with their couples. They started as a wedding planner but I truly can call them my friends!! Book this team - you will not regret it!

Congratulations, you’re engaged! We are so honored to work with couples from all walks of life to create a day that is uniquely you. On your wedding day, you’ll have a team to advocate for you, be by your side and help you pull off a celebration that’s one to remember.

We hired Michelle Knutson for our November 2025 Palm Springs wedding and truly could not be happier with our experience. We had a fairly small event, so we went with the day-of-coordinator package. Michelle truly went above and beyond just the day-of coordinating. She coordinated a couple intros zooms, got in touch with our venue and all of our vendors beforehand and brought us solutions when we realized we were going to be rained on. The day of she was a straight shooter - direct and ran a tight ship. But she was also warm, friendly and upbeat. Her assistant even took care of my dog for me and made sure he was fed and walked! We are forever grateful to her and her team for making our day so special. 10/10 recommend!

Hiring Blue Magnolia for day-of coordination was hands-down the best decision we made for our wedding. From the moment Deidra and her assistant stepped in, they brought my vision to life flawlessly. Every single detail was executed exactly as I had imagined — I truly felt like I could relax and enjoy the day knowing everything was in their capable hands. Deidra’s professionalism, calm presence, and genuine care made all the difference.

It’s those personal touches that make her services so incredibly special. Thanks to Blue Magnolia, I was able to be fully present and soak in every moment of our day without stress or worry.
