Wedding Planners in Arizona

We hired Bailey to be our day of coordinator for my wedding 10-3-26. My now husband and I picked her because she genuinely wanted to get to know us even before booking her. she asked us very good questions very early on that made us know she was a good choice. She was tentative to us. She would get back to us very quickly if we had questions leading up to the wedding. The day of the wedding she was very on top of it, kept us on track for our timeline, and just genuinely a very nice person. I would recommend her.

Alexys was my saving grace. She took the reins in the final moments of wedding planning when things got VERY chaotic. She kept our very large and crazy bridal party in check at the rehearsal and on the day of the wedding. What I loved most about working with Alexys is that she is herself. She gave honest feedback, she didn’t sugar coat anything, and got right down to business - she knows her stuff! I highly recommend working with Alexys to see your special day brought to life. I am honestly sad it's over to not communicate with her daily about plans.

We used Black Tie Optional's full wedding planning service for our wedding and it was worth every penny! My fiance and I went into wedding planning with a truly blank slate. We had no pinterest boards, no vision, and just a vague concept of wanting to bring our friends and family together to celebrate with us. We finally honed in on Sedona as our location - it had the beautiful nature we loved without requiring grandma hike 5 miles into the desert - so we started talking to various wedding planners to see who could help us go from vague concept of a plan to fully executed event. As soon as we hopped on a call with Chelsea, the owner, and Jenny, our wedding planner, we knew this was the right fit for us. Jenny didn't try to force us to change - we weren't asked to suddenly create pinterest accounts or make up an answer to whether we preferred "bohemian" or "eclectic" style. Instead, she worked with us and adjusted to our levels of knowledge (or lack thereof) of the wedding industry. Jenny took our general ideas and turned them into a wedding that was more beautiful and personalized than we ever could have imagined. "We don't have a color scheme in mind but here's my dress and let's try to work with the nature of Sedona" turned into a cohesive color story that pulled in the colors of nature around us and centered natural elements such as succulents and native flora. "We don't have a specific plan but we want our guests to have a party to remember" led to Jenny connecting us with some of the best DJs in the area and a thoughtful timeline that gave plenty of time for socializing and dancing. The day-of experience was absolutely fantastic. We literally did not have to think about a thing, because Jenny had kept us on top of all of our to-dos leading up to the wedding and handled everything day-of. When the guests liked the painkillers at the bar a bit too much and we ran out of rum, Jenny and Kelsey got replacements before we could even start to think about what needed to happen. When we were rushing to photos after the ceremony, Jenny had pre-arranged for cocktails and snacks to be prepped for us so that we wouldn't miss out on the food at our own wedding. You are truly in the best possible hands with BTO and with Jenny when you are planning your wedding. We cannot thank her enough from taking wedding planning from an overwhelming task to something that was actually even fun at times! And the absolute joy of being able to completely participate in our wedding, knowing that every last detail would be executed above and beyond our expectations was priceless. Thank you BTO and thank you Jenny!!!

Working with Sloane was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Being an out-of-state couple, we honestly can’t imagine planning everything without her. She was incredibly helpful every step of the way, always had answers, and connected us with the most amazing vendors, from flowers and decor to our DJ and so much more. What also stood out throughout the entire process was how exceptional Sloane was as a communicator and professional. She was always available, incredibly responsive, organized, and consistently made us feel supported and taken care of from beginning to end. Her experience and expertise were evident in every detail, and having a true full-service planner managing everything end-to-end was absolutely worth the investment. What stood out the most was how much she genuinely cares about her couples. You can feel how invested she is in making the entire experience special, fun, and as stress free as possible. Our wedding day was everything we hoped for and more, and we were actually able to be present and enjoy it because of her. We are so grateful for all of her hard work, guidance, and support. We truly had the best day ever!

Let me start by saying: I am a lot. I know this. My wife knows this. And within about five minutes of our first meeting, Danielle and Ashley knew this too — and somehow they never once let it show on their faces. I didn't want a wedding. I wanted an event. The kind of night people would still be talking about at Thanksgiving five years later. So for the better part of a year, I showed up to every meeting having doubled the candle order again, added yet another member to the string band, or revised the guest count and seating chart for what felt like the hundredth time. Somewhere around month eight, I tried to convince them my guests needed welcome margaritas in addition to the welcome champagne. Danielle, bless her, found a way to talk me down without ever making me feel like the unhinged bridezilla-adjacent groom I clearly was. That's a skill. That should be taught in business school. What I loved most is that they never just told me "no." They redirected me toward "extravagant but still tasteful," which — for someone whose natural setting is "more" — is basically wizardry. They gave us options for everything: florals, rentals, DJs, you name it, and somehow every option was one I actually wanted, which meant I never felt boxed in and never felt like I was being managed. Except I definitely was being managed. Expertly. They kept us on track for a full year so nothing became a last-minute fire drill, and on the actual wedding day — the one day I fully expected to hover, micromanage, and insert myself into every detail — I didn't have to. At all. I just got to be a groom. A very well-dressed, very extra groom, having the best night of his life at the Royal Palms — surrounded by what I'm fairly sure was an unreasonable number of candles and a string band that had basically become a small orchestra — while Danielle and Ashley quietly made sure every single detail landed perfectly. By the end, it genuinely felt less like we'd hired planners and more like two friends had thrown us the wedding of a lifetime. I was actually sad when it was over, because it meant I didn't get an excuse to talk to them every week anymore. Danielle and Ashley, from the bottom of our hearts — thank you for helping us plan the most perfect evening of our lives. If you are even a little bit particular (we don't say "control freak" here), this mother-daughter duo can handle a groom like me and still make it look effortless. Could not recommend them more. - Sev

Ellie was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for our wedding - she is truly the best. She was always available, organized, and detail oriented. Every wedding event exceeded my expectations - she’s simply stunning. She took my vision and made it come to life.

Mandy and her team were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process with us especially for being out of state brides. They always had our best interest in mind and communicated with us every step of the way. Unfortunately, we had to make the difficult decision to cancel our wedding due to COVID-19. However, their level of service was outstanding from start to finish. They went above and beyond their responsibilities by contacting all of our vendors to try to get our money refunded. It's been a very difficult time for us, but we appreciated their continued help even knowing we could no longer have our special day planned by them. It’s rare to see a company care about their customers in this manner, but we’re thankful for their understanding and for supporting our decision. If any couples are looking for a top-notch planner, we highly recommend Mandy Marie Creative.

We knew that we were going to need a planner for the wedding as we were also going to organizing 3 auxiliary celebrations. Bloom and Blueprint really went above and beyond for not only the florals and decor, but also the planning itself. We had the absolute honor to work with Casey and she truly was a cut above the rest. A fierce advocate, a hard worker, a great listener, and super organized to boot. The entire event rested on her shoulders and she performed better than I ever could have asked. People in my family who were skeptical about hiring a planner were absolutely won over by how instrumental Casey was to getting anything rolling. I truly cannot emphasize this enough, Casey is worth every penny. I repeat, every penny. Thank you Casey, you really are special to us and I'm so glad you could help make our special day that much better.

Mallory was an absolute dream to work with and made the entire wedding planning process feel so much more manageable! From the very beginning, Mallory brought such a positive, calming energy to the process. Wedding planning comes with countless moving pieces and decisions, but she had a wonderful ability to keep things grounded, help us prioritize, and remind us what actually needed our attention in the moment versus what could wait until later. That kind of perspective was invaluable. She was incredibly adaptable, supportive, and attentive to our needs. She consistently checked in with us, made sure our questions were addressed, and approached every situation with a calm, can-do attitude. We always felt supported and confident knowing she was in our corner. Her recommendations for vendors were also fantastic. We ended up working with vendors we absolutely loved, and we are so grateful for the connections and guidance she provided throughout the process. On the wedding day, Mallory did an excellent job coordinating logistics and making sure everything came together smoothly. With so many details happening behind the scenes, having someone who could manage the moving pieces while maintaining such a positive presence made a huge difference. Her assistant was also wonderful and contributed to making the experience feel seamless and well supported. Mallory was truly supportive from beginning to end. We are so grateful to have had her as part of our wedding journey and would absolutely recommend her to any couple looking for a planner who is organized, adaptable, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making their day special!
