    September 17th Celebration

    Sarah was terrific to work with throughout our whole experience. She was responsive, encouraging, created a sense of calm and we knew we could count on her to do anything for us. She also gave advice on how to best spend our money and all of the people she recommended to us for various needs were fabulous as well. We are thrilled with our event and highly recommend Lasting Impressions. I will miss working with her…if there is another opportunity for us to need her help we will call her! Thank you Sarah!

    Hiring Sarah at Lasting Impressions was the best decision I made!

    Hiring Sarah Trotter (Lasting Impressions) was the best decision I made! We hired Sarah to be our day of coordinator, however she was so much more than that. She guided me on vendors, timeframes and the small details we often forget. Thanks to Sarah, I was able to sit back and enjoy every aspect of the wedding weekend knowing she was taking care of every detail day of (big and small). The venue, photographers, florist and bridal party all loved working with her!

    An unforgettable, amazing experience with Lasting Impressions!

    Sarah Trotter is the perfect combination of efficiency, kindness and logistical excellence. She tackled my big fat Indian wedding with so much grace. She was so thoughtful about helping us highlight the important culture elements (for example, figuring out a venue that would help us do a Baraat, negotiating with food vendors and making sure fire could be lit inside for the ceremony) while also making sure the overall aesthetic was unique and ours! I cannot overemphasize how much she made me the bride feel at ease throughout the day with all the moving parts. She worked seamlessly with all the vendors (because she is truly the best in the business). She made sure we enjoyed and saw all the hard work we put into the wedding as well! We love Sarah so much and hope future couples (especially couples who are doing a different type of wedding!) will consider Lasting Impressions for their special day!

    Rethlake/Kane wedding

    Sarah and the team at Lasting Impressions are incredible. As the most important vendor decision you’ll make, hiring Lasting Impressions was a no brainer. Sarah and her team made our wedding weekend flawless and stress free. From the moment Morgan and I met with Sarah, she immediately understood the vision I wanted to create for Morgan and Seans special day. Sarah’s organization, attention to details, knowledge of local vendors, and fun personality made the planning process seamless and fun. This wedding was also postponed for an entire year due to the pandemic but Sarah made it all work and never missed a beat. I can not say enough about lasting Impressions and Sarah Trotter. I would recommend wholeheartedly to any and all brides.

    The greatest

    Sarah was a dream to work with. I had no idea where to start or how to go about the wedding planning process, but she helped us with every step of the way and kept us on track. Having Lasting Impressions there running the day of the wedding was absolutely AMAZING. Having Sarah and her team there by my side on my wedding day made for a completely stress-free day. She took care of EVERYTHING for us and made sure that my mom and I had nothing to worry about so that we were free to just soak it all in and enjoy.

    Planning Made Easy!!

    Sarah Trotter was organized, professional, and a joy to work with!!
    She was supportive when the wedding was one of the first to be canceled due to COVID, and helped us quickly regroup and pick up where we left off. She was always very organized at her meetings and she was always prepared! She made the wedding planning process a pleasure, even while planning during a pandemic.

    Be a Guest at a wedding!

    Lasting Impressions did an excellent job. My daughters wedding could not have been any more perfect. She took the pressure off me and allowed me to enjoy the day along with spending quality time with my daughter and her guests. Thanks for all you did.

    10/10 with Sarah & Lasting Impressions

    Sarah Trotter is the absolute best. Not only is she extremely fun and happy to work with, she is extremely talented at what she does! We used Sarah & team for their full-service option and could not be happier we did. She was with us every step of the way -- flower meetings, food tasting, venue check-ins, etc. In addition to constantly emailing us and vendors, checking in to make sure we're feeling okay, giving ideas/brainstorming all the way up to the day of. Day of was a MUST have Sarah. She did EVERYTHING. My flowers came out a little different than expected and it was fixed within minutes. She handled everything and the day went absolutely perfect (in our minds, which is exactly what you want!) I even forgot to put guest food preferences on the cards -- Sarah took care of it. I bought a sign with our last name on it last minute -- Sarah helped paint it.

    Sarah & team are absolutely unbelievable and I would recommend to any bride & groom that want to have the most seamless planning and wedding day!

    The most amazing planner!!

    I don't even know where to begin with Sarah and her team. I can not say enough good things about working with her. I am a very organized person, but didn't know the first thing about wedding planning. This year my husband and I got a puppy, built a house, both started a new jobs, and got engaged. That said, I knew I was desperate for help to plan a wedding as I didn't even know where to begin. I looked forward to absolutely every meeting with Sarah and each time I got to see her or even hear from her via email or phone. She made the stress of wedding planning fun and exciting, and helped my indecisive self make decisions to create our dream wedding day. My husband would like to thank Sarah for "keeping me sane". The whole process went very smooth and that's just the start. The WEDDING DAY! I couldn't believe it. I've been to weddings where the bride is stressed, families do set up and take down, etc. I did not think about anything other than the fact that I got to marry my best friend on the day of our wedding. Sarah and her team took care of absolutely EVERYTHING. If anything went wrong or out of order, I never heard about it or even noticed it. I cannot say enough good things about Lasting Impressions Weddings and I truly miss wedding planning and Sarah's name popping up on my phone each week - if you are thinking about a planner. HIRE HER!!!

    Wonderful!!

    Sarah was so helpful and more than worth the money! She dealt with my very unusual family dynamic with grace and ease. And she was beyond organized -- everything ran so smoothly and I felt so calm and secure with her in charge. She knows all the best vendors in the Twin Cities and had the best recommendations. We were lucky to have her!

    Sarah is definitely THE BEST! There's a reason why she continues to receive awards. You know you have the best planner when other vendors get excited after they learn that Lasting Impressions Weddings, (Sarah Trotter) is your planner. She's amazingly detailed and full of energy.
    My only regret, is not getting the TOTAL package.... Because she is that great to work with!

    Rainy Wedding Success!

    Words escape me when I try to describe how grateful I was to have Lasting Impressions at my wedding. I wanted things a bit unconventional, and their team was outstanding in making it come to life and running it flawlessly. Our day was rainy but they really helped everything run smoothly. There were a lot of logistics to manage and my mom said "I'm really glad you hired them." Their team was responsive, organized and proactive during the entire planning process and I was grateful to have them! I highly recommend Sarah and her team!

    Lasting Impressions = NO WORRIES!

    Neither my daughter (the bride) nor myself enjoy planning major events. We hired Lasting Impressions & left all the detailed wedding planning to them! We will forever be indebted to Sarah Trotter & her crew for making the special day absolutely perfect … with no stress whatsoever. I highly recommend Lasting Impressions! Pam Sebo

    Other than my groom, hiring Sarah was the best wedding-related decision that I made. I didn't immediately start working with Lasting Impressions during the planning process. It wasn't until seven or so months before my wedding that I reached out to Sarah. And thank goodness I did. The planning process went SO much smoother with her involved - it was like night and day. Sarah was so responsive, helpful and friendly. I started to enjoy planning and always looked forward to our conversations. Nicole handled our day of and she was also stellar. She kept the day running smoothly and made sure I wasn't bothered with any last minute drama. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Lasting Impressions!

    Several close friends worked with Sarah Trotter for their weddings. All said the same thing - best vendor ever. It's true -- Sarah Trotter and her team are amazing! Sarah was our day-of coordinator which took a lot of stress out of our big day. She picked up our cake for us which saved us a lot of hassle. A day before the wedding she came to our house and picked up all of our decor items and had everything set up for us. We loved allowing our close friends and family to enjoy more of the day without being worker bees. She was an excellent resource for vendor recommendations, vendor tipping etiquette, and any questions related to weddings. She even told us we could contact her on vacation (we didn't - but that's how dedicated she is). We loved working with Sarah. I can't imagine planning a wedding for the first time without her. We cannot recommend Lasting Impressions enough.

    Best decision we made :Hiring Sarah!

    We couldn't have asked for a better planner than Sarah. From the very beginning I struggled with how to articulate what I wanted our day to look like. After many meetings and emails, Sarah was patient enough to help guide me to figure out what I wanted AND it was even better than what I expected! Sarah is incredibly organized which made the entire planning process seamless and stress free. I cannot say enough good things about working with Sarah and highly recommend Lasting Impressions. Best decision we made!

    Lasting Impressions is the best!

    Sarah is a dream wedding planner! She is a joy to be around and helped me remain somewhat calm during the entire process. I lived by her wedding checklist for about a year. Planning a wedding is fun but also very overwhelming and I couldn't have done it without Sarah and her team (shoutout to Nicole for being the best day of coordinator)!Read Less

    Sarah and Dawn of Lasting Impressions were absolutely wonderful to work with. It was clear they knew what they were doing from asking the all right questions during pre-wedding planning to their efficiency on the wedding day itself. We had an Indian Wedding and they were able to cater to our specific needs and follow instructions that allowed for all of our important traditions. They day couldn’t have gone more smoothly and it wouldn’t have been possible without them. Not only are they good at what they do but they are both wonderful people and a pleasure to be around and work with. Thank you!

    Sarah and Nicole did an amazing job! They helped to bring our vision together, coordinated with our other vendors and made sure everything was perfect on the day of so we could just relax and enjoy our special day with family and friends. I would highly recommend Lasting Impressions. The money we spent was one of the best values of anything we did for our wedding.

    I don't know what I would have done without the Sarahs! They were so flexible, helpful, and worth every penny. I was less stressed as soon as I hired them! If I could do it again, I would have paid to have them coordinate everything instead of just the day of. They are wonderful!

    Sara made our dream wedding a reality. She brings such a positive energy to wedding planning and helps you get through any stressful moments with ease. Particularly on the day of the wedding, she ensures that you don't have to worry about a thing except for enjoying yourself.

    I really can't imagine the wedding planning process without Sara!
