The BEST Day of Coordinator

Libby is the most incredible day of coordinator in KC. I got to see her in action at my friends wedding back in June 2023 and fast forward to October 2024, Libby was coordinating for my wedding. I put my full trust into her and she executed the whole day perfectly. She worked so great with all my vendors and the whole day was seamless. It makes me want to get married again and again with her in charge! Thank you so much Libby!

Jennifer was so wonderful to work with! She is very well respected and has great relationships with vendors. She is organized and a pleasure to talk with. She is such a good listener and comes up with the best ideas—amazing ideas!! My favorite part of using Jennifer was her ability to please both the bride and mother of the bride. She kept my daughter and I on the same page, and both happy—she took away so much stress. She is truly the best!

Amazing experience

We had a wonderful experience using Jennifer and her team at Belle & Bows to help with day-of planning. She was efficient, easy to get ahold of, and had tons of great ideas we would have never thought of. The entire team was lovely, and our families both commented several times how easy to work with they were. They were so good, one of our sisters is planning to use Belle and Bows for her upcoming wedding. Highly recommend!

100% would work with again

Jennifer and her team are more than amazing! She was a great communicator via emails and as we got closer to the wedding day, it was easy to reach her via text or call for minor things that were needed. When I procrastinated on getting flowers for part of our ceremony, she took care of it. On the day of, our families, myself, and now husband, were able to go through the day, enjoy it, and not worry about a single thing. Once the reception was done, her team packed everything and had it ready to pack into the cars without our family having to do any of the work. My husband and I cannot recommend Belle and Bows enough.

We love belle and bows

Jennifer and her team are amazing! She made me feel so comfortable throughout the whole planning process and single handedly kept me sane the two weeks leading up to the wedding. She dealt with all of my meticulous questions throughout the process and never made me feel unprepared or stupid for asking. On the day of I was able to walk into our reception with no worries knowing her team had setup handled. Can not recommend Belle and Bows enough.

Best Decision Ever!

I was skeptical about hiring a day of coordinator at first and it was one of the BEST decisions we made!! Jennifer and Libby made everything so seamless for us the month leading up to the wedding and the day of. I felt totally relaxed knowing they were taking care of things behind the scenes and if anything went wrong I didn't even have to know about it! This also allowed for all of our family and friends to be completely present throughout the day. These ladies are so sweet and knowledgeable and make it so fun along the way!

Knowledgable. Professional. Fun.

Jennifer was my first pick for a wedding planner when I got engaged. She made wedding planning simple and less stressful. She met with my, now husband, me and my parents to listen to our wants and dislikes at the beginning of the planning process. She then immediately went into booking the most important vendors first. She gave us options that followed our wants and price point. She has such great connections and pulled off a wedding that was so fun and memorable. What I really appreciated about Jennifer was that she was very respectful of our budget. She was honest with pricing and what would go best with our wedding plans without going over budget. I would recommend her to every bride or groom.

Jennifer knows her stuff and loves what she does. Everyone at our wedding was blown away by the ceremony and reception. Thank you Jennifer for working with us and giving us such a memorable and fun day!

When 2 of my children got engaged within months of each other I knew we needed a planner to keep us on track. Jennifer was eager to jump in, review where we were at and guide us to vendors we hadn’t booked yet. Because of her, not only did the wedding day run smoothly but the weeks leading up to the wedding were relaxed and stress free. As my husband said, “Everyone needs a Jennifer!” Belle and Bows was simply the best!

We hired Jennifer to be our day-of-wedding coordinator. I would highly recommend her! She met with us several times, helped us create a day-of timeline, attended our final walkthrough with the reception venue, attended the rehearsal, and, set up all the decorations at our reception. Most importantly, she was there throughout the wedding day and reception to keep things running smoothly. At the reception, Jennifer made sure every little detail was taken care of and that we didn't have to worry about a thing, and she also took care of anything that came up throughout the night so that we didn't have to. Having her as the coordinator made the day much less hectic and stressful for us and our families, and she was a joy to have around. Very organized, professional, and fun!
