Introducing Mr. & Mrs. Ives

One of the most kind hearted couples we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. D and J planned their day purposefully. They incorporated their faith, their values, and most of all centered their big day around what was important to the two of them. Our favorite moment of their entire day was during their ceremony - their minister asked family and friends to pray over the couple, and for their marriage. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room. You could truly feel the amount of love poured into this sweet couple in that very moment, what a privilege it was for us to be in that room.

First look with your puppers? Yes please!
Kelce and Sam were so good, well behaved, and so so excited to see mom & dad all dressed up.
We love seeing your pets on the big day. These shots make our hearts so happy. Do you think pets should be apart of wedding days??

A & W
When two attractive gingers get married you know you are bound to get some jaw dropping photos.. just look at these two.

Abbey and Will’s wedding has been one of our favorites to date. Every choice they made was for their people, their friends, their family.

They trusted their wedding professionals, and their day truly was beautiful - who knew an event like this could bring so much joy to so many.

You know your clients are a different breed when you cry just looking at their photos. We are so passionate for what we do and for our friends we make along the journey.

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Brand! You truly are one of a kind.

We love getting to have a front row seat and watch how much love & hard work is poured into wedding days. This Bride’s parents truly turned this wedding into something so special.
Our Bride’s momma handmade this gorgeous cake and all of the sweet treats. She also designed every single beautiful arrangement.
The father of our Bride handmade all of the lawn games for cocktail hour and ensured they had all the perfect embellishments. Every game had their wedding colors incorporated, and their name engraved. Our personal favorite - the toss bags for the corn hole boards.
The Bride and her daddio surprised everyone with a fun choreographed remixed dance, and trust us when we say they went ALL out. It was so fun to watch.

We were so grateful to play a small part on such a specially crafted day for E & D.

✨Let’s talk Sparkler Send Offs ✨
We love em, but definitely have some tips, tricks, and advice for them to go off without a hitch:

#1. If you are planning on having your Sparkler Send Off captured by your Photographer, make sure they are scheduled through the end of the night to capture it.
#2. If you are not having your Photographer stay through the end of the evening and still want those beautiful Sparkler photos, you can do a *fake* send off. Your dj can always announce that it is a fake send off and the party will continue after. We are only doing the sparklers for pictures, and coming back inside.
*Please keep in mind, that a lot of your guests will take the *fake* send off as an excuse to leave. The real party people will still stay and dance the night away. 🥳
#3. You need 20 inch sparklers, any shorter and they burn out before we can light every guest’s. Any longer, and your guests will get tired of holding the fire stick that lasts forever.
#4. We always start by telling your guests the following:
- Line up on either side of the path, leaving enough walking space for our couple down the middle.
- Do not light your pals or the couple on fire. Hold your sparkler straight in front of you and tilt it up towards the sky.
- Do not put out the sparklers on the concrete or grass, we have water/sand buckets for them to go in.
- Help light your pal’s sparklers once yours is lit.
#5. Have METAL sand/water buckets ready.
#6. Start by lighting from the middle, use that first sparkler to light other sparklers throughout the line. This is the fastest way to light every one’s.
#7. Once every sparkler is lit, run through the line, stop halfway and kiss your new spouse! (Grooms, if you dip your Bride here, it’s a real crowd pleaser). If you make it all the way down the path with the sparklers still lit, run back to the top and do it one more time!!

Items you need: 20” sparklers, [2] METAL sand/ water buckets, [2] torch long stem lighters, and [1] fun coordinator to help it go smoothly

We are always smitten with personalized details and all heart eyed for these sweet magnolias 😍
If we had to pick three words to describe this special day, they would be: delicate, sweet, and elegant.

Each sign was designed & hand painted by the bride. They were topped with a handful of magnolias, and all tied up with a sage green, satin ribbon.

It was so refreshing to see a design & color palette that leaned away from trend chasing and definitely was trend setting. E & D’s design matched their personalities perfectly.

Let’s be honest, the littles walking down the aisle can sometimes be a wild card. If you’re gonna draw a wild card anyway, you might as well pick one that is guaranteed to have your guests laughing before the Ceremony.

One of the sweetest things we have ever witnessed at any wedding EVER..
E secretly had a brand new ring crafted specifically for his lovely bride. It wasn’t just any ring either, it was made from his grandmother’s ring and his own momma’s. H was elated when she he surprised her, and we were sobbing in the background. It truly was one of the hardest secrets to keep.

We are always right behind you. We may be mostly sweaty, wearing crazy printed shoes, and making a dad joke - - but nonetheless right behind ya ready to dive into the next challenge.
Planning your wedding sometimes isn’t always a positive experience - it isn’t always 🌈 and 🦋
(woof, that’s not fun to say out loud)

We do our best to keep the main reason for planning always first: (you’re marrying the love of your life)
andddd we try to keep it lighthearted as much as possible.

Here’s the tricky part: the tough decisions, family bickering, emotional/sensitive moments, and the wanting champagne on a lemonade budget days - - we promise you won’t go through it alone.

On your wedding day, our goal is to make sure you feel celebrated, loved, and all of your priorities are put first. We are here to support you, show you love, and compassion when you need it the most. You need someone in your corner that knows your wants/ needs and is willing to advocate for you. That’s where we come in.

Every special day needs a little confetti 🎉 (sorry we know it’s cheesy, but it’s true)! Let us help keep the process enjoyable for you and your family.

Jenna here, owner of CTC. I recently got hitched myself and I wanted our day to reflect on us, and represent our love
- - - we picked three words to help represent our day and stay at the forefront of our planning decisions: happy, bright, and fun - - it was all of that and more.

Planning & Day of Coordination has become more to us than just keeping our clients happy and helping wedding days run smoothly. We work to, of course, create beautiful days and help bring our client’s vision to life - - but we have shifted our focus.
When we entered this industry, we thought about the excitement that comes with creating effortless design and perfectly curated timelines, but now it’s all about the people.

**cue the sob fest**
The relationships we have built with our couples, the friendships that have formed from working side by side with our vendor pals, the new faces we get to meet every week are what matters most to us.
You are the reason we get up and do the daunting tasks, and when the work feels monotonous- - you are the reason we keep going. Thanks for helping us build a business we love.

- The CTC girls

Let’s make it personal
When it comes to your big day, I think we can all agree that the more personal the better. Wedding days hold such sweet, intimate value in our hearts - - so why not incorporate sweet, and intimate details?
This Bride had her Grandmother with her all the way down the aisle. One ring set is hers, and one is her Grandmothers. We tied a delicate ribbon with the precious rings around her bouquet stems, so that her Mamaw would be with her every step of the way.
What is a way that you personalized your wedding or plan to personalize it?

This ring was custom designed by our bride, she wanted something no one else has. Designing her ring gave her and her groom another sweet experience together before the big day - - they will cherish that ring forever.

Happy Saturday!! We are so excited to celebrate M & C today. Enjoy some fun bright colors for your feed on this cloudy day.
For rainy weddings, here are our top tips to ensure a smooth, easy day:

1. Bring a fun, clear umbrella for when the rain clears up, or in case it starts to sprinkle during photos.

2. Ensure your planner or venue has a plan in place for the drizzle - - you need a protected shelter for all of your guests, and vendors to relocate.

3. Embrace it. We completely understand being upset about the clouds cryin, but your wedding day is not ruined because of the rain. Often times, the rain is calming and definitely good luck 🍀

Sunshine, a light breeze, the smell of fresh florals, and cut grass - the ideal wedding weather right??

Missouri and April are a fun combination, luckily you can trust us to have a plan in place for those random April showers.

G & R lucked out on their big day with perfect clear skies. We think rainy weddings are honestly some of our favorite though - - the clouds make for some of the most beautiful photos. Don’t be discouraged by rain in the forecast, it can be so calming and beautiful.
