Wishing a very Happy Wedding Day to John & Sara! 07.21.2024 💛

I am super grateful to have the opportunity to support this wonderful family today as they were a referral from one of my past Urban Daisy couples! I absolutely love getting to work with so many friends and family member connections 😊

John and Sara, today is the day you are going to be surrounded with the love and joy from all your closest family and friends, praise God for choosing you for one another! Wishing you the very best start to your marriage!

With great joy I want to wish Tyler & Anne a very happy and blessed Wedding Day!!  💍

I have been working with these two for a while now and it has been so fun to work with them through this process and see how it's all come together- it will be a truly special day surrounded by loved one's and friends as they say their vows and become Husband and Wife 🥰

Not only do we have a stellar team of vendors, but Anne's mom, also is their florist today!

I've known Peggy at   for many years as she has been a close friend and spiritual mentor of mine, so I am especially honored to be coordinating her daughter Anne's wedding, also so Peggy can fully enjoy being Mother of the Bride today!

What a day to celebrate Anne & Tyler's love as they start their married life! "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."  (Matthew 19:6) 🩷

HAPPY WEDDING DAY Zach & Alex! 06.21.2024 💍

They said their I Do's at the gorgeous and the rain held off the entire day so they could take in every spot on the venue grounds!

Alex is a Wedding Photographer, so today was a little bit different where I just arrived on site for Day of Coordination only, she knew how to make a wedding timeline 😉 And what a great day it was!

Praise God for this beautiful day and for choosing the two of you for each other! 😊 Your ceremony was so filled with the love and peace that only comes from Jesus. Wishing you both the very best marriage and lifetime together 🩷

It is Wedding Day for Aubin & Grant - YAY 💍

I feel like I've known these two for so long already, but it was really only just a year ago we first met- time sure flies! 

What a wonderful experience it has been working alongside them these past several months putting the final touches on their Wedding plans- today will be a day with an INCREDIBLE vendor team and the joy of their family and friends.

Something very unique and special they are doing today is a water collection along the Apple River with their immediate family, which will then be turned into a water and river painting to remember the sight, the scene, and the emotions of their Wedding Day!

Come rain or shine, their marriage will be blessed 🤍 Congratulations to the very soon-to-be Mr. and Mrs. Munson! 😊

Hi there Couple's and Vendors- specifically those impacted by the Circle B Venue closing!!

I've been chatting with a number of coordinators and planners, and it's time for people in the Wedding community to step up and be a community!

I can't imagine how those who lost their venue are feeling. SO- if you are a couple impacted, or know a couple impacted who doesn't yet have a Day of Coordinator, or had hired a Coordinator who isn't available for a changed date, I am willing to offer 50%-75% off my rates for dates I may have available yet this year and in 2025! Final discount will be based on location and guest count size.

Please email me at [email protected] and I would love to chat and see how I can help support you!! 🧡 and if I'm not available for your date, I know other Coordinators who are also willing to offer this similar discount for their services too!

Just reach out! We are in this together!

As many may know or have a heard, a fairly local MN venue just up and shut down leaving so many couple's out and lost their venue weeks and months before their weddings....

I cannot recommend Rockwoods MN enough as an alternate venue and they just shared their calendar availability on their website. This is where Chase and I had our Wedding Reception and I could not speak more highly of their team- they are wonderful and a VERY affordable option 🧡

Please share with any couple's you know that are impacted!! What a testament to the wonderful and supportive community we have here of wedding venues and vendors - there is always GOOD made from the bad circumstances around us.

Highlighting Mr. and Mrs. Piro 🧡

It's time to start highlighting all the amazing weddings from last year, starting with Emily & Adam! 💍

Today is all about COMMUNITY 🧡

Several key attributes I value as a Coordinator within the Wedding industry:

- Teamwork
- Kindness
- Patience
- Attention to Detail
- Transparency
- Passion
- Communication

Let me tell you, I've had the honor to work alongside and meet many vendors who I would categorize in all the attributes above! We are all on the same team- YOUR Team! There to serve you and ease any worry so you can enjoy every moment of your Wedding Day. 😊

You've heard the phrase 'community over competition', and 'teamwork makes the dream work', and they are absolutely true! Next to Joyfully Yours, the other half of Weddings I worked last year were assisting or leading for other vendor friends- it is just so WORTH IT to help each other out, learn from one another, and GROW! 🌼

I have created a whole list of Wedding Vendors that I have personally worked with or met multiple times and would HIGHLY recommend them to couples. They will all be included in the pamphlet you will receive from me when you inquire too! 

*You can also take a look at my stories or the "Start Here" Highlight to see!

The most common question I get asked is... 🧐

”What does a Wedding Coordinator DO at our Wedding??”

So, here is a list of tasks I may complete on your Wedding Day and why a Day of Coordinator is so valuable, because trust me, SOMEONE will end up doing these things!

On-site Coordination Service may include/is not limited to:

Greet and direct Vendor arrival

Point-person for questions from Vendors, Wedding Party, family, and guests

Set-Up Welcome/Guest Book table, In-Memory table, Seating Chart/Escort Cards, Cards & Gifts table, Ceremony and Reception decor

Assist Photographer in coordinating First Look photos

Ensure Wedding Party & family are ready for photos - Pin boutonnieres/corsages

Facilitate Ceremony Rehearsal in coordination with Officiant and DJ/Musicians

Light candles, turn on signage

Line up and cue Officiant, Music, and Wedding Party for Ceremony

Repurpose/move Ceremony decor to Reception space; clean up ceremony/unity items

Direct and move guests from Ceremony to Cocktail Hour to Reception

Cue Grand March, Welcome Announcements/Prayer, Dinner, Speeches, and First Dances

Release guests to the dinner buffet

Set Dessert table/prepare cake and serving ware for Cake Cutting

Coordinate room flipping or partial teardown of tables/ decor for Dance Floor space

Secure gifts and cards in vehicle or locked location for end of night

Distribute thank you’s and gratuities to Vendors

Communicate Shuttle departures/announcements with your DJ or Emcee

Problem solve and troubleshoot any issues or emergencies that arise

And I'm telling you, these are just the TYPICAL tasks. Every Wedding is unique and has different needs ✨️

Wishing a very Happy Wedding Day to Cole & Clare 02.20.2024 💍

It's been a true pleasure working alongside these two as they prepare for their Wedding today! I know they are especially looking forward to it, but I'm just going to say that I am also SO excited for them to have their First Look today as Clare walks down the aisle... what a moment to treasure! 🥰

They'll be married at their church and then guests are going to take a short drive over to St. Paul for their reception at Landmark Center - I also have to give them a shout out for their music choice, because cleaning up decor at the end of the night is just way more fun when we get to listen and dance to Bluewater Kings Band at the same time.

🤍
Clare & Cole, I pray today be filled with abundant joy and praises to God! May today be a beautiful start to your lifetime of marriage together!

So you can now share polls in IG posts... so lets do a ✨️VENUE✨️ Poll shall we?!

The question is, for both Vendors and past/current couples- what is the most important factor to consider when booking your venue? (I.e. what is your highest priority when selecting a wedding venue?)

If you have strong opinions, let's chat in the comments! I know what I would pick/suggest to couples....

Then for dinner, we are having food STATIONS and an Ice Cream Bar for dessert 🍦 followed by a night of dancing, their own personal Last Dance, and Sparkler Grand Exit!

Sarah & Shane, with so many other beautiful moments planned too, I wish you the best first day of your married life together 🤍

Venue Manager vs Wedding Coordinator- Why you should have both ✨️

First off, this is not an exhaustive list of what either role is responsible for, and as a Coordinator, I don't claim to know everything that a Venue Manager does behind the scenes!*

However, as your Wedding Coordinator, I offer a vital and valuable service that focuses on YOU, so you, your Wedding Party, your family and your guests can be present for all the special moments of your Wedding Day 🤍

Two caveats to the information in the slides:
1. I would not apply this to Church ceremonies and receptions- the responsibilities of your Church staff will vary and be a specific point of discussion in our planning meetings!
2. I am solely a Wedding Coordinator, not a Wedding Planner- also two very different roles and responsibilities! I will detail this in a different post coming soon.

In summary- your venue team and coordinator team are VITAL to your Wedding Day 💍 and both of our teams want your day to be smooth, stress-free, and a celebration of your marriage! 😊

Wow do 2 years fly by fast... but also so much happens in so little time too! We grow, we learn, we laugh, we cry- I could do none of it without Chase by me side. His life is an absolute miracle, and I am downright blessed for him to be my Husband. I thank God for the gift of marriage and for choosing Chase for me, how good and great is our Lord 🕊💍

The Loy's said their 'I Do's' a year ago today, 10.14.2022 and boy was it a dreamy day!

Andrea & Ryan, I'm wishing you the very best in all the years ahead! 😊

3 weeks to go! ✨️

Only 3 more weeks of weddings, to complete the 11 week single and double-header stretch of weddings this year!

This year has been a transformation year for me in many ways... and I will detail this more come the off season. I have so many incredible things to share and ideas to move forward into next year, with a newfound confidence in myself and how to use this little platform that I have to glorify Christ. That's what life is about after all. I thank God for His strength and provision 🤍🔥🕊

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil." Proverbs 3:5-6

Be comfortable- be personal ✨️

I've seen a lot of "shoe photos" this year and I'm a fan of it! From Wedding Crocs to sneakers, to engraved soles or heirloom shoelaces, your shoes can be one of your fun personalizations AND be a special reminder on your Big Day!

So with wedding shoes or dancing shoes- if it's meaningful to the two of you, make it part of your day and photos 😊

One of the best moments on your Wedding Day: the walk down the aisle as Newlyweds 🤍💍

This is the most pure moment of joy and gladness as Husband & Wife on every Wedding Day, and it's also one of my absolute favorite moments to witness as your Coordinator 😊 can't wipe the smile off my own face when the two of you get to walk the aisle together!

No matter what I may need to be doing DURING your actual ceremony (which are many things), I still make it a personal task of mine to witness, pray for you, and be standing around the corner or in the back of the ceremony space to clap and give you a huge grin saying CONRATULATIONS when you take this special walk together- after all this is the moment to celebrate 🥂

There were two very special anniversaries for the JY couples in the last week, so first I want to wish a very happy 1-year Anniversary to Jacob & Bailey 🤍

These two got married a year ago 9.4.2022 at the beautiful and it was an absolutely wonderful day for them to say their 'I Do's' (example A the stunning golden hour photos). ✨️

Their Wedding Day was focused on Christ, family, and friends, and especially their two little girls. Their First Dance with the 4 of them as a family had the entire room sobbing, it was one of the most precious sights 💕😭

Congrats to the two of you- I hope the first year was filled with love and cherished memories, with a lifetime more to come!

Yes 100-200+ weddings can be a blast, but there is nothing like the personal connections and memories you can make with your closest loved ones in an intimate and family focused wedding day. 💍 Saying their 'I Do's' will be very special and I am honored to be a helping hand along the way!

Here's to you Amanda & Bryce and your lifetime of marriage together 🥂
