ANGELA MENLOVE

We want to give the biggest shout out to Angela Menlove from us for doing the decorations of a lifetime at our wedding! She was phenomenal! We spent over six months reaching out to her and getting her help deciding colors, themes, and all of our ideas! We saw many fun ideas on Instagram and Tiktok and she was able to make them a reality while also giving us direction in pointing out what would work best! Let me tell you all about how amazing she was! She went out of her way to be available for calls! We called her almost every weekend and she was basically our wedding planner as well! She was always ready for us to bounce our ideas off her and proved so instrumental in our wedding! She coordinated every detail and was available to make sure our visions turned into reality. We visited the venue multiple times before the wedding with Angela. We had four events over a two day period and she coordinated decorations of all the events. She worked with her floral team to set different areas with flowers. She was patient with us especially when we were going back and forth on various ideas and incorporating multiple changes. She transformed the venue with amazing decor. Everyone was amazed with the decorations of our wedding and I quote, “funnest, best looking wedding we’ve ever been to” -a ton of guests. We’ll definitely be booking her if we ever have any other party throwing needs and highly recommend to anyone needing help decorating their wedding! People should just pull the trigger and get married because then they could hire Angela for the most memorable weddings of their lives!!! We are grateful for her expertise and knowledge. Photographers were able to capture every detail for our memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Thank you Angela! We love you :)

Love,
Maddy and Caleb

Mackenzie was such an asset on our wedding day!

We worked with Mackenzie as our day-of coordinator and she made it easy for me to fully enjoy my wedding day. She went above and beyond and was so helpful! We got married on top of a mountain so between juggling vendors and all of the usual logistics, Mackenzie also tackled the additional logistics that came our the wedding venue (e.g., getting guests to the ceremony location via chairlift). She was always willing to hop on a call and provide advice leading up to the wedding date, which I was so grateful for. Come the day of, she was authoritative and took control. Can’t say enough great things about Mackenzie! I highly recommend working with Hoopes!

Perfect wedding weekend thanks to Angela and Hoopes

My partner and I were so lucky to work with Angela from Hoopes Events for our wedding :) Angela was incredible in every way. She was knowledgeable, organized, thorough, and a wonderfully warm and reassuring presence throughout the entire process. There were so many aspects of our event that could have made planning difficult (specifically that we’re a couple of stressed out procrastinators planning a Utah wedding while living in Brooklyn), but Angela made it as smooth and stress-free as we possibly could have hoped.

And more importantly, her expert planning and coordination helped make the wedding itself absolutely flawless! Her coordination with the venue and the vendors was masterful, and she was such a hit with the guests and ceremony participants that one of our friends tried to hire her for a sibling’s wedding on the spot :) The whole experience was so much better than we expected, and we honestly could not have done it without Angela. We can’t recommend her and Hoopes highly enough.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
