    The best decision we made!

    I don’t have enough words to describe how incredible it was to work with Steph to create our dream wedding. From our very first meeting, I knew she was the perfect fit to transform our half baked ideas and Instagram saves into reality. Steph is both incredibly professional, and a master at her craft.

    As soon as we booked her, she kept us organized with different tools, and was so accessible and helpful for our many questions. At no point during the planning process did we feel overwhelmed, or like we didn’t know exactly what was going on. She helped us make very informed decisions, and always helped us weigh the pros and cons. We had a plan A, B, C to make sure nothing would catch us off guard!

    Day of, it was confirmed, there would have been no wedding without Steph and her team. We were thrown more than a few curveballs, but the whole BTP team had our back and pulled everything off without a single issue. Steph - I hope you know how grateful we both, and our families, are for all that you’ve done. You were our superwoman, and we will always be forever grateful. Thank you ❤️

    Delivered our dream wedding stress free

    Steph is an amazing wedding planner who excels at both the design and the organization of executing a fantastic wedding. She curated the most beautiful wedding design for us and nailed the vibe we desired while staying within our budget. We are Canadians who had a destination wedding in South Florida and in the year of planning Steph was always extremely responsive and we always felt looked after. Our wedding plans changed a few times and Steph was always flexible and proactive with any changes. Our wedding day was perfect, and our guests all said it was one of the most if not THE most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. For us, Steph and her team completely organized the entire day and looked after everything so we could relax and enjoy every moment. We appreciated Steph going above and beyond for us multiple times, for example transporting flowers from the wedding to our lunch the next day. Steph is professional, and very personable, we enjoyed every meeting we had with her. We recommend Steph to anyone who needs help planning their dream wedding whether at home or abroad.

    😍😍 Blue Thistle Productions is Spectacular 😍😍

    First the TLDR: Stephanie is a joy to work with and really, really good at her job. She knows the industry incredibly well, has a network of incredible vendors, and will guide you through the process. Our wedding was perfect - it felt incredibly personal and captured who we are, and was also more gorgeous than anything we’d ever imagined. We cannot recommend Stephanie highly enough.

    And for the full review:
    I genuinely don’t know where to start a review of Blue Thistle Productions, because everything deserves a rave.

    Our wedding was so magical that a month later we are still in disbelief. I’m in awe that Stephanie helped us craft something so stunningly gorgeous and yet so completely personal, so totally us. Friends and family told us it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. I’d never really believed that “best day of your life” business - but I’m having a really hard time imagining something that would top it.

    Over the past year, Stephanie made the wedding planning process so much fun. We went into it a bit nervous - we could tell she had a gorgeous sense of design, but neither of us had any real vocabulary for what we wanted. She helped draw out our taste and translate it into something amazing. She has a phenomenal network of vendors she works with, and was able to seamlessly work with new vendors we knew we wanted. She thought of every detail.

    Not only was the wedding gorgeous, not only is Stephanie really, really good at her job, but she is also so fun to work with. You know those people who light up a room? That’s her. She brought joy, light, and calm to the entire planning process. It was clear how much she cared about our wedding, and how invested she was in making the day perfect for us - and she did exactly that!

    Simply the BEST!

    There are no words to describe my gratitude and love for Stephanie and her incredible team. It has been a week from our wedding and we are still in absolute awe. From our very first interaction and throughout a year of planning, she made the entire wedding planning process so fun, memorable, and exciting. Her eye for detail, her creativity, her selflessness, her passion for what she does, and her infectious energy is unmatched. I couldn't have imagined having anyone else be such a huge part of our entire wedding weekend. Our dream became our reality and we owe it all to her. Thank you Steph for making an unforgettable experience, that can often be stressful for some, feel absolutely seamless and magical! You are simply the best!

    The best event planner in miami

    Planning your wedding will be filled with MANY details, changes, challenges, and beautiful moments. There is one person through this whole process that stood next to us through it all with so much grace and it was Stephanie. This woman is a powerhouse. I cannot express enough gratitude for Steph. Her heart is IN IT. I mean really in it. Her eye for detail, her thoughtfulness, and the way she walks you through YOUR vision and breathes life into what is possible is UNMATCHED. Her personality, her heart, her team. She was my DREAM planner and became someone I could absolutely trust to make great things happen. She is HONEST, REAL, KIND, and INCREDIBLY THOROUGH. She has a delightful and refreshing way of communicating. She and her beautiful team became our friends. Life is still moving fast in all directions, for everyone, as you plan this memorable day, for her as well, and yet, still, even in her most challenging moments she showed up for us. She was meticulous in carrying out our vision, and never wavered in her commitment to lead our amazing day. We planned our wedding from another state, and knew nothing about Miami, she made this process so sweet. Talking to vendors can be overwhelming and sometimes they don't have your best interest, she will detect this sticky situation and becomes the voice of reason to make it right for YOU. She has your back, YOU are her priority. That is a very rare characteristic to have. I found a picture of her watching our first dance, and she is BEAMING with smiles. It was so telling that she was experiencing our day with HER HEART. She was present for us on that day, and many days before AND after. She listens. She hears you, and she wants to make your day as perfect and memorable as it can be... you will FEEL this about her. Her team supported my very large bridal party at so many moments. They became family. We are forever thankful to her for walking her sweet path, and that we got to meet her on it and create such a gorgeous day was a true gift. THANK YOU STEPHANIE for your heart, and your true efforts and contributions to our day. She is the wedding planner you need, she is THE BEST WEDDING PLANNER IN MAIMI, and above all, she is a wonderful person. It's been an honor to work with her and her incredible team. We will never forget the love and care you put in for us.

    Phenomenal! Couldn't imagine planning without her!

    My fiance and I decided to throw a destination wedding for 50 people in Miami within a 6-week timeframe. We couldn't have pulled off this stunning occasion without Stephanie and her company Blue Thistle. Not only does Steph have amazing taste, talent, and superior judgment when it comes to vision, design and planning; she is also an absolutely wonderful person who I enjoyed "working with" every day. Steph, handled all of the details flawlessly, she kept me steady when I was overwhelmed and she guided us on every decision that we had to make. Steph is a true gem who I recommend without hesitation. Don't hesitate to secure her you will not go wrong.

    Michelle S

    Stephanie is just outstanding. I have no words. She is a perfectionist, and an absolute master at her craft. Stephanie at Blue Thistle Productions planned the most extravagant wedding ever. Nothing was overlooked, and if any issue arose … she was on it.
    My guests could not be happier with Steph and her team. Most importantly, with her help we now have the most amazing memories. Truly a wedding for the books and it’s all due to Stephanie’s talents. Forever grateful for you!

    Above + beyond

    I cant imagine my wedding without Steph and her team at BPT… from the moment we got Steph on board she went above and beyond every single expectation. She organized all of our contracts, helped me redesign my wedding, custom-made our dance floor, coordinated with all of our many vendors, and made sure we ENJOYED the process and our special day. BPT is a team of people who genuinely love what they do, Steph was a pleasure to work with and get to know. I’d recommend them to anyone.

    Hire her asap

    Steph and her team gave us an absolute dream wedding. Everything was FLAWLESS. We had a large destination wedding right as covid peaked and Steph could not have made things any easier. From coordinating emailing 140 guest QR code’s, detailed update guest emails, and even overcoming shipping and supply issues Steph came through on every aspect.

    The wedding week was smooth and stunning- check out the photos. She worked with the florist to give us EXACTLY what we dreamt of, hand crafted tassels for menus, even hand designed a custom floor wrap for us very last minute when we decided to add it in! Steph and her team made sure every single thing was taken care of- from transporting bridesmaids to ordering fruit platters to snack on to helping venmo vendors the night of the wedding.

    Steph is an expert at staying on budget and doesn’t pressure you into anything- she has many vendor contacts that saved us a lot of money! She is also willing to put in work to save on outsourcing! Overall she is very solutions driven and despite the MANY challenges we faced during covid (venue researching and changes, guest testing, travel protocols) she had the most positive attitude and ALWAYS had a lovely solution. She kept us sane for a full year of planning, and smoothly executed a massive island destination wedding. Blue thistle productions is simply incredible and very, very necessary for your event!

    Incredible

    Stephanie is absolutely outstanding. She has worked tirelessly daily for over a year, pivoting venues and dates countless times as we navigated planning a wedding throughout Covid. She has extreme attention to detail, amazing ideas, and really captured everything I want in every little detail. We are having a huge formal destination wedding and it could not have been smoother for us, despite not being able to travel to the venue before signing due to covid. Stephanie is so professional and communicates very well, finds the perfect vendors, and creates STUNNING design. I have had the most fun throughout this process, all because of her!! She made this fun, happy, and easy in the middle of a pandemic.

    Amazing Experience

    Stephanie is the best wedding planner ever. From the very beginning, she has been a great listener, attentive to detail, and extremely efficient in carrying out all tasks both big and small. I would highly recommend her to anyone, no matter what your budget may be because she is extremely professional and capable of handling any kind of event!

    Best planner EVER!

    This is a long review so if you don’t feel like reading the whole thing, here is the main takeaway: the best choice you can make when planning your wedding is to hire Blue Thistle Productions.

    We chose to work with Stephanie because of her eye for design and her obvious passion for making events magical. Every step of the process reinforced that choice. Stephanie is kind, patient, driven, and a pleasure to work with. She is dedicated to making the event everything you want it to be.

    We knew in broad strokes what we wanted the wedding to look like, but did not have any specific ideas for how to achieve that vibe. Stephanie made us a comprehensive Pinterest board that we collaborated on, adding and favoriting stylistic details that we liked. With this as a starting point, she helped us find vendors that perfectly fit our vision and budget. Stephanie carefully compared multiple options for each vendor, took the lead on all communications, and looped us in for calls and meetings as needed, while taking care of all the less-fun logistics without us.

    Just as we were finalizing the last of our contracts, COVID upended our plans. Stephanie didn’t blink an eye and methodically went about re-planning every detail over the course of the ensuing months. Then, when one of our key vendors ran into an unexpected conflict, she did it all again for yet another date. Despite the uncertainty of that period, Stephanie remained optimistic and solutions-oriented throughout. She avoided conflicts, leveraged her strong relationships, and found great outcomes for everyone involved. Blue Thistle removed the stress from what could have been a really daunting setback, turning it into an opportunity to make our event even more special. We often reflect on how grateful we are that Stephanie and her team were willing to go so far above and beyond, sticking with us for not one but three weddings over the course of two years!

    Blue Thistle did an extraordinary job taking our event from conception to reality. We do not live in Miami so it was difficult for us to meet with our vendors leading up to the wedding. Stephanie went in person to our caterer multiple times to ensure that the linens and plates perfectly fit with the design we were looking for. She set up sample place settings while there and sent us photos/videos so that we could be sure we would get exactly what we wanted. The final look of the wedding was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Every detail was thought out and perfectly executed. There were many personalized touches that pulled the entire event together that we would have never thought of on our own. One thing in particular that I want to mention is our escort cards. Stephanie made a whole hanging art work with people’s names on it that was absolutely gorgeous and fit perfectly with our décor. It was such a stunning piece. She went the extra mile to make our wedding personal and gorgeous.

    On the day of the wedding, Stephanie ensured that everything was as low stress as possible. In the weeks leading up to the event we ironed out all potential kinks and had back up plans for our back up plans. We were so relaxed on the day because we knew that even if things went wrong there was an equally good fallback option. Everything was coordinated seamlessly and because of the Blue Thistle Team we got to enjoy our entire wedding day without worrying about anything other than being in the moment.

    We cannot say enough good things about this company. The best gift you can give yourself (or someone else can give you) when planning a wedding is to work with someone who will ensure that your wedding day is everything you want it to be while never making you feel like a burden and helping you through the inevitable stresses that are wedding adjacent. Blue Thistle Productions is just that.
