Let me start out by saying I can't count the number of times before and after I got engaged that I said I would never get a wedding planner and could do it all myself with my mom (I laugh as I just typed that by the way). Well, that was until I met Cody Smith! As I began booking vendors, I continued to get asked who my wedding planner was and kept saying that I did not need one. They probably thought I was nuts. It wasn't until I booked my photographer that he explicitly told me I needed a wedding planner and the wedding planner I should hire was Cody Smith. That was hands down the best advice I received during the planning process. From our first call with Cody, we knew she was definitely our girl! As we began working with Cody, we loved everything about her. Cody is incredibly talented at what she does and on top of that is so kind and truly cares about you not as just a bride but as a person. Cody took every idea that we had for our wedding and brought it to a whole other level that I could never have imagined. The time she puts in, the detail, energy, and dedication that Cody brings makes you feel as if you are the only bride she is working with. Cody was exactly what I never knew I needed but can't describe how lucky and grateful I am to have had Cody as my wedding planner. Cody is so much more than just your wedding planner; she becomes your family. My wedding was the wedding of my dreams and perfect in every way. I can 100% say that my wedding day was perfect because I had Cody as a wedding planner. Cody, I can't thank you enough for all that you did for us and our wedding. I am so grateful for you. You are the best of the best and one of a kind, as I said in the title a gift from the Wedding Gods! If you are a bride like me who thinks you do not need a wedding planner, I am here to tell you I promise you that you do. And the wedding planner to hire is Cody.

If you’re looking for someone to keep your wedding day (and your sanity) intact, stop your search and hire Cody.

I don’t say this lightly: Cody saved me. Wedding planning is hard enough, but trying to do it while juggling a high-pressure, soul-crushing job that had me working until midnight and crying almost daily? I genuinely thought I was going to break. Enter Cody—a calm, capable, endlessly supportive force who got me down the aisle with grace, creativity, and a whole lot of heart.

Cody was so much more than a planner. She became a true friend—someone who believed in every one of my creative, out-there ideas and encouraged me not just as a bride, but as a human being trying to stay afloat. She championed all the weird, whimsical touches I wanted (including my quest for cocktail hour alpacas, which she pursued for weeks despite ridiculous insurance and weather challenges). She even did my flowers herself so I could make my dream venue work within my budget. Who does that? Cody does.

My fiancé is Japanese, and without even being asked, Cody thoughtfully wove touches of his family’s culture throughout the experience in ways that were both sweet and meaningful. Her attention to detail, her professionalism, and her empathy are unmatched.

If you’re looking for someone who gets it—who sees your vision, holds space for your mess, and shows up with humor, hustle, and heart—Cody is your person. I can’t recommend her enough.

When my younger daughter became engaged shortly after her older sister's wedding, after family, Cody was my first call! Cody took time to understand the couple's preferences and provided ideas and suggestions that aligned with their goals for the event. It was helpful that I understood Cody's process for organizing all of the information, but she didn't skip a step for the couple, who didn't see the behind the scenes of planning the other family wedding. Cody kept everyone on track and connected us with wonderful vendors. She was at every meeting to make sure that communications between the couple and the vendors were completely clear. As a result, I think that all of the wedding events went as expected and wonderfully reflected the choices the couple made. Cody and her team were simply fantastic! You cannot make a better choice than Cody as your planner. I truly didn't worry about anything!
