    They Seriously Have your Back!

    Sarah was absolutely incredible! She is so kind, warm, and attentive! She always got back to us in a timely manner and answered any questions or concerns we had. Day of the wedding is where she truly shines!! She was always one step ahead, always anticipated our needs, and ran everything so smoothly and effectively. She was constantly checking in and grabbing anything I needed from safety pins to beverages. She literally picked a booger out of my nose right before I walked down the aisle! Talk about going above and beyond!

    Best Experience Ever!

    WOW! I can't say enough about the team at Mountainside Events! They are top notch - particularly Sarah - who coordinated our wedding day and made sure everything went exactly how we wanted it - it was perfect! Nothing was left unnoticed or unattended and the attention to detail was amazing. Sarah went above and beyond for us - doing things I don't even think were part of her role, but just needed to get done. We were able to fully enjoy our special day because everything was done for us without having to worry about anything. They were the best! Thank you so much!

    🌲 A Dream Wedding Day Thanks to Sarah at Mountainside Events 🌲

    Planning a wedding in the unpredictable Colorado Rocky Mountains over a holiday weekend is no small task—but thanks to Sarah at Mountainside Events, our July 5th wedding was everything we dreamed of and more.

    With two stunning but logistically different venues—Saint Malo's Chapel on the Rock in Allenspark for the ceremony, followed by a brunch reception at Nest Above in Estes Park—Sarah managed every detail with professionalism, poise, and genuine heart.

    She has a graceful, behind-the-scenes way of keeping everything moving seamlessly. From coordinating with our harpist at the chapel to timing the jazz trio at brunch, she made sure each transition felt natural. She also kept all our vendors on track and the day running smoothly across both locations. Thanks to her calm and steady presence, everything felt completely stress-free—we were able to be fully present and truly savor every moment.

    But it wasn’t just the logistics. It was all the thoughtful touches that made the day feel so personal and filled with meaning. Sarah set up the kids' activity table to be both fun and beautifully done, keeping our 16 little guests happily entertained. She also created a loving tribute space to honor our late loved ones, arranging photos in a way that was simple, respectful, and full of care.

    One of our favorite gestures: Sarah reused floral arrangements from the chapel, thoughtfully placing them around the brunch venue to add warmth and beauty in unexpected places. She also scattered photos of us as a couple throughout the space, inviting guests to connect with our story as they celebrated alongside us.

    If you're planning a mountain wedding in Colorado, Mountainside Events is an absolute gem. Sarah brought so much calm, heart, and intention to our wedding day. It was joyful, meaningful, and completely effortless—and we are forever grateful.

    So much more than event planners

    Mountainside Events is so much more than an event planning company, they are incredible human beings and dedicated to the art of running an event! 10/10 hands down.

    We are actually from DFW Texas and wanted a very small destination wedding in Colorado! We got engaged in December 2023 and began planning in January 2024 for a December 2024 wedding at The Boulders at Black Canyon Inn in Estes Park-- we reached out because of great reviews and because the business was women and LGBT owned! We got a prompt response from Taylor and soon after we began hashing things out, we were introduced to Sarah. When I say I literally COULD NOT recommend a better and more kind, equipped, and nimble coordinator!!! Sarah is so fantastic, incredibly organized, and her positive "don't sweat it" energy makes the entire planning process feel like a breeze. The wedding was super easy to plan with her help, which was worth its weight in gold when both my spouse and I work full-time! We were able to make 'fun' decisions more often than logistical ones :)

    We did opt for their largest planning package, but I would spend that over and over again for the level of effort and care that went into our wedding. Every vendor she recommended to us and helped us hire was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! I have no doubt that their month of coordination and elopement packages and all other offerings have the same level of care dedicated to your event, and their relationships with other local event services really helped us get the best and brightest vendor team.

    On a more personal level, two days before our wedding there was a huge and heartbreaking falling out with our families, to the point where we were worried the day might be ruined and irreparable. Sarah picked up the phone immediately, patiently sat on the phone with me as I cried, told me to not worry about logistics, that was the easy part, but to call her if I needed to talk or if either my spouse or I needed anything at all. She also personally drove my in-laws to our rehearsal dinner in her car when they got iced out of their AirBNB the next day, and worked her magic with the venue staff to organize a shuttle to pick them up after as well for an incredible price. She made edits to the timeline on the fly so seamlessly, it's like they were written into the plan from the start.

    The day of was FLAWLESS. If there was any sort of issue, we did not hear about it! I was a little nervous getting ready on my own that morning but as soon as Sarah and Taylor showed up literally all of that melted away. Everything came together beautifully and was set up exactly as we envisioned. Sarah even helped pack up our belongings, food and cake, and grabbed our room key to go put it in our suite fridge so we didn't have to. I am certain she did so much more behind the scenes that we didn't even know about since we were so busy having fun dancing. Both of them were so, so sweet. I honestly had no expectations one way or another, but it truly was the best day of my life, and my spouse Elliott agrees. :)

    I, the wife lol, am incredibly Type-A and have a hard time relinquishing control in my daily life. The way Sarah did everything the way I would have, or BETTER, made this feel like such a dream. We were truly guests of honor at our own wedding and basically all we had to do at the end of the night was sober up and grab our junk from the getting ready rooms, haha.

    I know this is so long winded already, but if you're on the fence about it, PICK MOUNTAINSIDE EVENTS!!!!! You will not be disappointed, it's some of the best money we've ever spent. Sarah, we mean this from the bottom of our hearts, we'll never forget this and you mean so much to us. We hope you and Taylor stay in touch!!!

    Mountainside Events Review

    Can not say enough positive things! We chose to do day of coordination and was so happy with Taylor Strope. She communicated with me leading up to my wedding day, was always available, and thought of every last detail so I didn't have to. I had zero stress on my wedding day because she has taken care of EVERYTHING. So happy we found her and had her for our wedding day. Extremely professional, experienced, and great to work with.

    The Best Wedding Planner in Colorado

    Taylor/Mountainside Events is an absolute gem of a wedding planner! From day one, she made the whole process feel effortless with her relaxed and friendly approach, while still being incredibly detail-oriented. She asked all the right questions and made sure nothing was overlooked, which put us at ease knowing we were in expert hands.

    Her experience in the industry truly shined, and every little detail on the big day was flawless thanks to her. If you're looking for someone who combines warmth, professionalism, and a knack for perfection, Taylor/Mountainside Events hands down the best wedding planner in Northern Colorado. We couldn’t have done it without her!

    Just hire them already and actually enjoy your wedding.

    My bride and I were married on 9/7/2024 at Rist Canyon Inn in Laporte, Colorado. We hired Taylor and the Mountainside Events team for their full-service wedding planning package.

    Taylor and her team helped us identify vendors for our wedding and plan those little details. We are both full-time researchers in academia and have little free time on our hands due to where we both are in our careers. Taylor and her planning team were integral in minimizing pre-wedding planning stress by helping to handle all the details and making our decisions much easier. However, the benefits of hiring Taylor and the mountainside events team don't end with minimizing wedding planning stress.

    Taylor and her team were absolutely AMAZING day of the wedding. The whole day was a complete whirlwind, but we didn't have to stress about anything thanks to their team. Every little detail was taken care of. While I am sure there were issues that popped up, we really didn't have to deal with any. Taylor only came to us with questions on our preference when she wanted to make sure x,y, or z happened the way we wanted. Otherwise, we were able to just be present on our big day.

    We can't recommend Taylor and the Mountainside Events team enough. Just hire them already and actually enjoy your wedding.

    Numerous of our guests commented on how flawlessly everything ran. The vendors also let us know that this was one of the smoothest weddings that they had attended, and all of this would not have been possible with Taylor’s attention to detail and her impeccable planning skills.

    We can't recommend Taylor and the Mountainside Events team enough.

    July 2024 Dream Wedding w/ MSE

    The Mountainside Events team was so helpful in planning our July 2024 wedding. We first connected with Taylor in October 2023, and she actually had the idea for our venue, The Mishawaka. We absolutely fell in love with the idea of our wedding there, and Taylor took time to get to know us and our vision for the wedding really well, in order to bring that vision to life. About 2 months prior to the wedding, we connected with Sarah, our wedding coordinator. She has amazing energy and was so excited to help us every step of the way. From doing a final walk-through at the venue, to providing inventory from MSE for items we could rent for the wedding, to just trouble shooting any issues we came across along the way, Sarah was consistently very positive, accessible and responsive, and really pulled everything together. We absolutely loved everything about our wedding day, and couldn’t have done it without her, our assigned coordinator Randi and the rest of the MSE team!

    Great experience!

    I couldn't be happier with Taylor! She meticulously handled all the big and small details, ensuring everything was perfect. Her advice was much appreciated and her emotional support throughout the planning process was invaluable. Her dedication and upbeat attitude truly made my wedding day stress-free and unforgettable.

    The "easy button" of Wedding Planning

    Taylor and team were AWESOME. Fast, responsive, and hard working we could not have created the experience without them. Even with some unforeseen challenges they pulled of the wedding of our dreams for a reasonable price. Thanks again for all you do!

    Amazing experience

    My wife (!!) and I are SO thankful we hired Mountainside to help with our wedding! Taylor and Sarah are both so fun to work with, and they were always there when we needed them. They found us the best vendors, we had an incredible experience, and they were very willing to provide other options, work within our budget, etc. The team knows a lot of the vendors we ended up working with, and it gave it a really community, friendly and trustworthy feel

    Cannot recommend enough

    Sarah and i talked on the phone for a consult and it felt so fitting. She came up with an incredible agenda for every hour of the wedding down to every detail.
    I had 0 stress the entire week of my wedding. I got to my venue at 1 and Sarah was promptly there.
    During the wedding Sarah made sure to keep everything tidy, restock photo paper, marshmallows, etc. and the best thing about the night was everything was boxed and taped and ready to be put into our car at the end of the night.
    I cannot speak highly enough about Sarah. She made my wedding so calm and everything that I could’ve asked for.

    Mountainside Events made our wedding dreams come true!!

    Taylor and Mountainside Events were INCREDIBLE!! My wife and I felt comfortable from the first conversation we had with Taylor. Each time we spoke leading up to the wedding, she thought of everything, and communicated with all of our vendors seamlessly. We truly couldn't have pulled off our wedding without her. The day of the wedding, I really had no stress. Everything was taken care of and executed perfectly. Being able to just enjoy our wedding day without stress or distractions was priceless. I highly recommend Mountainside Events!

    Book them now

    We had the most INCREDIBLE experience with Taylor and Sarah. From day 1, Mountain was kind, patient and genuinely interested in the vision my husband and I had for our special day. We worked with them for almost 2 years and they kept in close contact in the months leading up to the event. Once Sarah was assigned as our day-of coordinator, she really hit the ground running to dig into all the details of how we envisioned our special day. I'll admit, we had a big vision for decor and vibes of the day. We requested so many details and definitely had opinions on all the small stuff. and Sarah not only truly saw that vision but acted as an extension of my brain to execute on it perfectly and with excitement. She was a planner, mediator, negotiator, therapist, and support system all in one. She even went to bat for us, without us asking, when a vendor stepped out of line a few days before the event. The day of the wedding was SO smooth. It's incredible how much went on behind the scenes with Mountainside to make the day run so seamlessly. All of our guests gushed about how perfect the day was and we 100% attribute that to the Mountainside team. BOOK THEM NOW YOU WILL BE SO HAPPY

    Above and Beyond!

    Sarah went above and beyond to make sure our day ran smooth. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking! Everyone at Mountainside Events was so kind and easy to work with! As a queer couple we were also blown away by how inclusive the experience was and how intentional everyone at Mountainside was to make sure we felt comfortable and fully represented. 10/10 would recommend!

    A one of a kind team that will always have your back!

    I first met Taylor while I was working for her other company, NOCO Staffing, in 2022. I saw how she and her team worked behind the scenes and was immediately impressed. I knew I wanted to hire them for our wedding the following year. She had excellent communication during the planning process, continually checked in with us, and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day went off without a hitch. Even during the unexpected rain, Taylor and Maddie made everything feel seamless for us. They pulled out umbrellas for our guests during the ceremony, moved our reception indoors, and made sure we were all having a wonderful time. My husband and I were beyond happy with how everything turned out and would relive that day all over again if we could. Thank you SO much for making our day so special. We appreciate you all and will forever sing your praises!

    Great service above and beyond!

    Taylor and her assistant Will went above and beyond making sure everything went perfect for our big day! From setting up decorations to handing out tips, and even taking photos to give to my mom so she had some that day, they were truly amazing! I hired them for "day of" coordination but got so much more then that. Taylor was there for me any questions I had throughout the entire wedding planning process. 100% recommend!!

    Great service and staff!

    We hired a month of coordinator through Mountainside Events for our July 2023 wedding. We were assigned Maddie and her assistant and couldn't be more thrilled with the service we received, Maddie was attentive, a great communicator, and a very easy person to get along with. During the planning process Maddie was quick to respond to any questions I had along with keeping the other vendors in the loop. On the wedding day, Maddie and her assistant made sure everything ran smoothly and ensured everything was set up according to the vision my fiancé and I had for our big day. They definitely took so much stress off of our plates. I couldn't be more thankful for the hard work we received from Maddie at Mountainside Events and would recommend them to everyone looking for an event planner.

    Beyond satisfied!

    Hiring Maddie and her assistant from Mountainside Events was the best decision! She was so responsive, helpful, and organized! She communicated with us timely and often. On the day of the wedding I was able to focus my time on my daughter and not worry about the planning/details. We feel fortunate we had Maddie helping us- she is very organized, and efficient!!! And as an added bonus, she has the best personality!

    Absolutely amazing to work with

    Mountainside Events was an absolutely amazing planning business to work with for our wedding. We loved both Taylor and Maddie, and would hands down recommend them ten times over for any event. Maddie was always available to help with anything I needed, and I know that our wedding would not have gone as smoothly without her. She went above and beyond over and over again. The amount of organization, professionalism and support that they provided is unmatched and so valuable. The planning process was a breeze, and we got to spend our wedding day enjoying every moment, rather than having to stress about the minor details. I can not recommend them enough!!

    Phenomenal Wedding Coordination from Day One

    Taylor and her team were very professional, attentive, mindful, encouraging, intentional and supportive in so many ways! They helped plan our schedule for the day, ran the rehearsal and day-of coordination, helped refer me to several vendors, took over communication with our vendors, helped decorate and set up on the day of, as well as clean up and our wedding oversight. We had some unexpected weather-related troubles with our outdoor bathroom and tent, and they took care of it very quickly so there was barely any worry before our ceremony started. I appreciate and value them all! Our day was really wonderful and their help was monumental in this!!

    Destination wedding made easy

    Our wedding in Estes Park was spectacular and in no small part due to Mountainside Events. We paid for their top tier package which included the wedding planning, rehearsal, welcome event, and post-wedding brunch. Taylor was great and we really enjoyed working with Sarah.

    The only negative was that occasionally we found ourselves having to self advocate. When we bought the top tier, we expected to get their best work right off the bat. Sometimes we found that we would have to follow up or ask for the team's best work.

    To be clear, we recommend Mountainside Events 100%. They made planning our destination wedding easy. Please don't hesitate to hire Mountainside Events.

    Taylor is amazing!

    Taylor was so personable, well connected with vendors, and so helpful during our process. We did the day of coordinator package and she was super responsive leading up to our event for advice, rental options through Mountainside, and vendors contacts. She kept the night running smoothly and problem solved tech issues quickly for us. We are so glad we hired her!

    Impeccable Planners, Incredible People

    We hired Taylor as our month-of coordinator, and we could not be more thrilled with our choice. In the months leading up to the wedding, she helped answer a million random questions, and gave us some great tips and suggestions to help us in the planning. The handoff month-of was seamless, with her effortlessly picking up all vendor communications and final details. As someone who is type A, Taylor balanced keeping me included where desired while also handling the details that I didn't need to concern myself with. Day-of, her and Sarah kept the wedding timeline perfectly on track, while still managing to make every transition feel organic and natural. They were part of our pump-up crew, getting us ready and excited, and making sure we had everything we needed. Their attention to detail was excellent. As part of the LGBTQIA+ community, they supported us in all the ways we needed in what is all too often a heteronormative industry. Taylor and the Mountainside Events team are true professionals, and pulled off a magical day! We could not speak any more highly of our experience with them!

    Taylor and Maddie were so fun, nice, and extremely helpful in making our day run super smooth! I didn't realize how beneficial having someone to help with planning would be, but now I can't imagine doing it without them! I would highly recommend reaching out to Mountainside Events if you want to have a stress free and perfect wedding day!! Thank you guys 💜

    Planner for a wedding at our venue

    Taylor was the wedding planner for a June wedding at our ranch, La Joya Dulce, in Steamboat Springs. We work with many planners, and Taylor was professional from the very first inquiry to the last dance of the night.
    Emily & Alex are definitely "our" type of couple so she matched the venue to them perfectly. Her recommendations were spot on, and her coordination flawless.
    We highly recommend Taylor and her business!

    Mountainside Events is a MUST HIRE for your Wedding Day Planning

    Taylor and her team at Mountainside Events are FANTASTIC! I cannot say enough about how professional, communicative, knowledgeable and more this team is when it comes to event planning. My wedding day ran smoothly and perfect because of their attention to detail for setup, timeline, vendors and more. You will not regret hiring this team to help make your dream day perfect!

    Made it all happen!

    There aren't enough positive adjectives in the dictionary for me to properly describe my experience with Taylor and the Mountainside team. We found her through our venue (she was once the events coordinator there and we knew we wanted someone familiar with that particular space), then worked together for over a year leading up to and including our wedding day. For a Type-A personality like me, she's the perfect combination of super organized and comfortingly calm and easygoing, and her connections around northern Colorado can't be beat. We love—and I mean, LOVE—every single one of the vendors she set us up with, on a personal as well as professional level, and they made a dream team on the big day. Taylor helped us bring all of our ambitious ideas to life, and over countless planning emails (like I said, Type A) she was always patient, enthusiastic, and solution-oriented. Her day-of coordination was awesome, too. Any wedding is going to have some hurdles/hiccups: despite being a beautiful day, we did have some heat and high winds to contend with, on top of being at a cell-reception-less venue where all coordination requires a little extra care. Taylor and Maddie handled everything like the pros they are, putting our minds at ease so we could focus on enjoying ourselves. Ultimately, my partner and I were able to have the very intentional, very "us" wedding we so wanted, and we received lots of compliments from guests about how much fun they had—another thing that was obviously super important to us. Taylor and team had everything to do with that.

    Stress Free Wedding Weekend

    I hired Taylor (full service) because she is local to Fort Collins, but then I expressed wanting to get married in Steamboat Springs and her and her team found me the most beautiful venue that wasn't even on my radar. Taylor was always responsive and reassuring when I had wedding stress or concerns. She made our planning process move along seamlessly and found us the BEST vendors to work with. But really where Taylor truly shined was the weekend of. I didn't have to worry about a thing (seriously) because she had it all under control. If you're a bride like me and planning is your nightmare, or if you just want to have the most stress free wedding weekend, don't hesitate to hire Mountainside Events!

    Best Wedding Planner / Day of Coordinator Ever!

    Taylor (and her entire team) are absolutely incredible and I definitely recommend hiring her to help with your special day! We hired her for the day off coordinator services at our wedding last June at the Mishawaka. Not only is she extremely organized and stays on top of every detail, but Taylor has a great demeanor and is so relaxed. Planning a wedding, especially if you are taking on a lot on your own, can be so stressful and Taylor went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. She was flexible, gave us great recommendations and suggestions and was able to keep me calm in midst of all the craziness!

    We planned our wedding in just 6 months during the midst of the pandemic. We were so thankful to have Taylor, as she was in constant communication with our vendors, and kept me in the loop on ever-changing covid restrictions. She always keeps it professional, but is also a genuinely great human being that cares so much about the clients she works with.

    Our day was flawless thanks to Taylor and her team! Would 10/10 recommend her for any wedding planning services, she's an absolute gem!

    Celebration of Life

    I decided to plan and host my own Celebration of Life and Taylor was the perfect choice to help me make it happen. We brainstormed to come up with a few unusual things to do and how to celebrate my life. Everything went off without a hitch! I would highly recommend Taylor for any type of event!

    Seamlessly perfect!

    We shopped around looking at wedding coordinators for our wedding. We planned our wedding in 7 months, and I honestly would say the reason the day of was a perfect day was due to Taylor and her team.

    They took over all communication with our vendors 2 months leading up to it. We had a couple of meetings with them to make sure we were all on the same page. The day of, we had a venue that needed to flip the space from the ceremony to reception and Mountainside events did everything! They also packed up everything so our friends and family did not have to worry about anything and could enjoy the night.

    Our venue and other vendors also commented to us how great Taylor was to work with and how they had everything they needed leading up to the wedding and during the wedding. I would recommend using Taylor and Mountainside events without hesitation. Even my family who couldn't make it stalked Mountainside events Instagram and loved the posts they did throughout the night!

    11/10 stars!!

    BEST EVER! 11/10 stars! Taylor went above and beyond to be helpful, thoughtful, and always patient. There were a LOT of opinions on how our special day should unfold/look/go, and Taylor made sure to be respectful our our wishes, while keeping our families and guests in mind. She was so helpful and really knows her craft. Taylor went out of her way to do everything from give us a hug when needed, to fix a timing issue with our dinner. She was stellar, trustworthy, fun, and above all, a true friend during the entire process. I not only HIGHLY RECOMMEND her, but I can honestly say that our day would not have run as seamlessly as it did without her. Taylor - We are so proud to have worked with you!! Thank you!

    The best decision ever - hire taylor

    After about 5 minutes on my initial phone call with Taylor, I knew I wanted to hire her and her incredible team on my big day. She was one of the first vendors I hired right after I booked my venue and it was one of the BEST DECISIONS I could've made throughout the planning process. Even though I only hired for day-of event coordination, Taylor was there for me and my husband the entire time answering questions, giving recommendations & advice, getting quotes for rentals, etc. I also found my DJ - Salazar Productions & Dessert Bar - Starlight Loveland who were also amazing through her.

    It was such a weight off our shoulders having Taylor coordinate with all our vendors the month leading up. She also coordinated our timeline and kept the day moving along so smoothly it was AWESOME. She also gave directions as our venue was not the easiest to find. We also had quite a bit of DIY decorations we brought which she & her assistant had set all up perfectly to how we envisioned and then teared down neatly and carefully into their boxes at the end of the night.

    I would hire Taylor and her team 1000x over again as she did an amazing job and we're forever grateful.

    THANK YOU TAYLOR & MOUNTAINSIDE EVENTS!!!

    Could not have imagined the day without you !!

    Had never heard of a day of wedding coordinator prior to my daughter recently getting married. The venue suggested that we hire someone and Taylor and her team were highly recommended. They provided an invaluable resource not only the day of but in the several weeks prior to the event/wedding happening. The team made sure that all of our vendors were well communicated with and that everyone knew what their role was. Additionally she made sure our vision was executed. They were easy to work with, responsive and professional . Retrospectively I wish we had done the whole process with them! Would have saved me a lot of time and headache !

    Wedding Was Perfect!

    Taylor and her team at Mountainside Events were the driving force behind what so many guests at our wedding called, “the best wedding they’ve ever attended.” When we decided to get married at my parents property in Colorado we quickly realized that since we live out of state we needed help coordinating vendors and just planning in general.

    Taylor met with us early on in the process and went over decisions that we would need to make, took the time to get to know us and our preferences, and began to create a timeline for when we would need to make these decisions. All of this was extremely helpful to create the type of event we wanted and to make sure that we kept everything on track!

    All of the vendors that we were connected with were top of the line professionals who truly love what they do. Juli and Juan’s catering was show stopping and a true highlight. Working with John Robson for photography was an absolute joy and our photos turned out beautifully. Rob Salazar was a wonderful DJ, NOCO Staffing kept the service impeccable and the drinks flowing, and to finish it off Flexx Productions set us up with a tent that looked straight out of a Disney movie.

    On the day of our wedding it was truly the team at Mountainside Events that made it what it was. I could not have asked for a better group of individuals to help us celebrate our big day and will forever be grateful for their assistance in ushering in this new chapter in our lives. If you are planning a wedding in Northern Colorado in my opinion the only option is to go with Taylor and Mountainside Events. You will be amazed! Our wedding went seamlessly and was enjoyed by all!

    Mountainside Events saved the day!

    It wasn't until about 3 or 4 weeks prior to our wedding day that we realized the person we had thought would be our day-of-coordinator was just not going to work out for us. And it was really important to us to make sure we (and our immediate families) could focus on enjoying the day by having someone to help us, so we were really worried.

    When we contacted Mountainside Events, they responded immediately and jumped right into helping us get all the last minute details sorted. Sarah Hoffenberg was assigned our coordinator, and she wasted no time in touching base with our vendors and making sure everyone was all on the same page ahead of time.

    The entire day went so well, everything was perfect and as we had hoped it would be and the best thing was that we really, truthfully didn't have to worry about any of the details besides just enjoying the moments of our special day and celebrating with family and friends. We can't thank Sarah and Mountainside Events enough for helping us in such short time, and for helping make our day so absolutely great and stress free!!!!!

    Tailored To Us

    Taylor and her assistant made our wedding absolute stress-free. I don't know how many times I brought questions/worries to her and she assured me that we would have things done. She paid attention to even the little details; for instance she made a keepsake in memory of my grandfather. I can't speak more highly of Taylor and the services that she provides via Mountainside Events.

    Taylor is the best!

    Taylor was an incredible help to us in planning our wedding. From my first phone call with her, I knew we'd made the right choice. She was extremely efficient while being simultaneously cheerful, friendly and down-to-earth. I was quickly in awe at how streamlined our wedding plans became once we started working with Taylor. I felt like we had an insider's view into how to make our wedding really spectacular. She was very responsive anytime I emailed with a question, concern, or a need. I felt like she went above and beyond for us, but she always seemed to operate completely at ease, in control, calm, centered, and very enthusiastic about our wedding plans. I highly recommend Taylor for planning and coordinating any celebration!

    The BEST wedding coordinator!!

    Planning a wedding during a pandemic was quite stressful, however, Taylor Strope helped ease my concerns when our original wedding coordinator had to cancel on us 2 months out. Taylor was always so responsive, kept me up to date on Covid protocols in Estes Park, and jumped right in on such short notice! She made time to meet us in person before our big day to plan out the day and really get to know us and the vision we had. On the day of, she did an awesome job setting up our decor, checking in on us while we got ready, and was always letting us know where to be and when throughout the day. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Taylor :)

    Fantastic despite cancelling for COVID-19

    While Taylor didn't get to help us all the way through our wedding day (we are eloping now due to COVID-19), she was a huge help navigating wedding needs for a naive bride. Taylor helped me get a timeline set, recommended vendors, helped me to coordinate rentals and make recommendations based on my pinterest board, and all the while was very responsive to emails. I don't think I ever waited more than a day or two for a response. I really value the work Taylor did for us, and when it came time to cancel she was a fantastic help navigating refunds and helping me through a tough decision. If I have a reception next year, I will 100% contact Taylor for services.

    10/10 Would recommend and use again!

    We did not know what we were doing and Taylor was there for us from beginning to end. She listened and worked so hard to give us everything we wanted. Unfortunately, we had to cancel due to the pandemic but she helped us through that decision, as well. She is a very kind, thoughtful, detailed and extremely talented person. If we have the opportunity, we will 100% work with her again.

    You need a day-of-coordinator! ie. Taylor!

    Taylor was an amazing day-of-coordinator. I wasn’t sure what to expect and was blown away with Taylor’s services and execution leading up-to, day-of and after our wedding day. We met with Taylor twice in-person before the day-of and had plenty of email and phone conversations. She really focused on the details and honed in to what was important to us. She was very organized and kept track and in contact with all of our vendors. Due to all the prep work before our wedding day, we quickly met when she arrived onsite and handled everything through the set-up of the reception venue, helped with the ceremony and throughout the reception. She even followed up after our wedding day with our vendors with the tips (we didn’t have them quite ready before some of our vendors came, set-up and left).

    I’d highly recommend Taylor and her services. She went beyond what we could have asked for and more. If an engaged couple asked for a piece of advice, I’d recommend a day-of-coordinator - it’ll make your day even more flawless!

    Thank you for everything you did Taylor!

    Didn't have to worry about a thing!

    I give Taylor and her team an A+ from the start! I talked to many coordinators prior to choosing and once I spoke to Taylor the search was over. Her bubbly personality made me feel at ease with all the planning from out of state! She had an answer to all my questions and the wedding day went off without a problem. Taylor's attention to detail kept the stress away before, on and after our Big Day :)

    Personal, Kind, dedicated, and Perfect

    Taylor and Mountainside created a reception for us that absolutely blew us away. My husband and I eloped and had a small reception for family and friends. Neither my husband nor I had a vision for really what we wanted and we kept a very tight budget. Mountainside handled the vendors we chose perfectly and did all the layout and decorating and truly made the whole evening beautiful beyond anything we could have imagined. The staff were phenomenal with our guests and managed the whole event seamlessly. We could not possibly recommend them any more highly or with any greater joy than we are. If you need a planner, no matter how big, fancy or relaxed your event please please contact Mountainside, we absolutely loved them.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    I'm the type of person that likes to plan for and have control over most things and wasn't too sure about having a day of coordinator because I thought I could handle it all, but I'm SO glad I decided having a day of coordinator was the better option!! Taylor & Sarah were absolutely amazing, I couldn't have asked for 2 better people to help me with my big day! Taylor was so responsive any time I had a question and was on top of everything! The day of, they were so patient and walked the bridal party through everything right before the ceremony since we opted not to do a rehearsal. They decorated the venue exactly like I had pictured in my mind and if there were any mishaps that day, I didn’t know about them. They handled it all beautifully and everything just flowed perfectly! Taylor & Sarah are incredible to work with and I highly recommend them!!

    Mountainside Events made our day so smooth and enjoyable!!

    Taylor and Sarah were so amazing to work with! We definitely would not have been able to pull everything off without them. They made everything look so beautiful and took care of details we never would have thought of. Not only did they make the day-of run smoothly, but Taylor also helped us find the best vendors for what we were looking for. I would highly recommend hiring them to handle the coordination so that you can just enjoy the day!

    Very well coordinated and went so smoothly so we could enjoy our time with our guests

    Taylor and team met several times over the course of the 2 years planning for our event. I felt completely comfortable with the progress at the various stages, and the event itself was coordinated and so well planned that I didn't have to worry about a thing, I sat back and had a great time with my guests.

    Taylor was extremely helpful with finding me some helping hands for my wedding, and I had reached out to her last minute! She was so nice and so prompt. I couldn't have asked for better service. I will definitely be saving her information for any events I have in the future!

    Taylor is Amazing!

    With my venue I chose, they required me to have a wedding planner...At first I wasn't too thrilled about the idea because I was that bride who was on top of everything- I didn't think a planner was needed! But man, was I wrong. I searched for planners for a few months, and didn't find anyone I clicked with, especially for a fair enough price. Then I came across Taylor :) Taylor was my miracle! Throughout wedding planning she was available whenever I needed her to be. She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding was everything I hoped it would be, even through the mishaps on wedding day! She has such a talent to connect with her brides, and execute an outstanding vision. My wedding wouldn't have been the same without Taylor, I am truly grateful for all the work, effort, love and thought she put into everything. Any bride would be lucky to have her!

    Wonderful, terrific, the tops!

    Taylor was AMAZING! She helped us account for all the little details that are easily forgotten about when planning a wedding and helped us have a wonderful day! Even with a sudden rainstorm right before the ceremony, she kept her cool and ensured everything turned out great. Our ceremony & reception went off without a hitch thanks to her! Taylor & Mountainside Events are HIGHLY recommended!

    The Perfect Winter Wedding

    We hired Taylor with Mountainside Events for day of coordination for our wedding. From our initial meeting all the way until the end of our event Taylor was there for us the entire time. We had many questions come up over contracts, vendors, and questions about transitioning the venue from ceremony to reception since our event took place in the same location; Taylor quickly responded to us and took care of everything that came up! She was so easy to work with and made planning a wedding with her incredibly fun! For any event we have in the future we will happily work with Taylor at Mountainside events again, thank you!

    Taylor took all of the worrying out of our wedding

    We worked with Taylor as a coordinator for our wedding, and she did a fantastic job. Every detail—both the ones we discussed before the wedding and new issues that came up during the reception—was handled perfectly. I didn’t have to worry about anything the entire day because I knew she had it covered. Both she and the server that she helped us hire worked their tails off. Even the venue staff commented that it was the best organized and least frantic wedding they’d ever seen!

    Very happy with our wedding!

    We had a low-key wedding up at the Mishawaka a couple weeks ago and Taylor coordinated it. It was SO nice- she took care of table and chair rentals, transportation, and acted as Day-of coordinator. Everything went super smoothly and it was not stressful for us at all. Taylor was responsive, efficient and pleasant to work with, and great at addressing things that didn’t even occur to me. Highly recommend!

    I had no concerns leading up to our big day, as I was confident Taylor would do an AMAZING job at making our wedding unique and special. She was always on top of the details leading up to the wedding. On the BIG day, there were literally no hiccups that I was aware of. I mean, maybe there were tiny issues throughout the day, but Taylor took care of everything to the point that our wedding day flowed beautifully and my wife and I had a truly remarkable day. All we had to do was show up, dress up, and have fun and be married! Honestly, Taylor crushed it and I am certain she’d do just the same for your event/wedding! I highly recommend Taylor and Mountainside Events. Cheers!

    Taylor at Mountainside Events was phenomenal. We had a specific venue request and she helped us put our vision into place. Taylor was always available if we had questions and was very prompt in responding to email and texts. Taylor applies a genuine laid back approach in planning and were very pleased with the results! I would recommend Mountainside Events to anyone, she was able to delegate and plan vendors, without requiring us to do any leg work. We had a great time working with Taylor and not only had a professional relation, we also feel confident that we found a new friend!

    We hired Taylor Strope and her company, Mountainside Events, to help put together a vision for our 40th wedding anniversary party that was held in our beautiful backyard on a recent warm summer evening. It was a catered party for 34 guests. We had a long, family style table set up on the lawn and it was beautifully decorated with white tablecloths, a red runner, and fresh flowers. Candles and a string of Edison bulbs held up by shepherd hooks illuminated everything when the sun went down. Taylor was also instrumental in ordering the flowers and hiring the musicians.

    It was a delight to work with Taylor. She was always prompt in responding to emails. She has a lovely creative flair and was able to help us in all of the decision-making along the way. She arrived on time on the day of the event to set everything up and returned towards the end of the evening to see what was needed. As it happened, some guests wanted to linger a little longer after the party was officially over and Taylor made arrangements that everything could stay in place and she would return in the morning to pack everything away. Taylor also worked closely with the catering company we used, Juli y Juan’s Kitchen, and it was a delight to have everyone working on the same page. I can highly recommend Taylor for any of your celebratory occasions. She was fun to work with besides being polite, efficient and energetic.

    Mountainside Events is truly incredible - the last thing you want to think about is all the logistics on your big day, and Taylor and her team have you covered. They're extremely thoughtful, detail oriented, and will make sure your big day is fully covered from start to finish.

    We hired Taylor and her team for coordination services, so day-of is where they really came in handy. We did most of the pre-planning ourselves, but it was SO great to have someone to execute our vision on the day. I highly recommend hiring Taylor to take care of all of coordinating all the moving parts, so you can actually enjoy your day. I'm very happy that I did.

    Easy to work with and zero problems!

    Taylor is amazing! What I loved most about her is her easy going attitude, which was a great balance to my high strung attitude. Also, I loved her open mind. We had somewhat of an untraditional wedding, no ceremony (eloped before) and not into many wedding traditions. She did not judge us or push us into something we didn’t want. I say this because before choosing Taylor, I consulted with another person and they were the exact opposite, didn’t understand the whole no ceremony thing, and the way they reacted to the no wedding cake, no bouquet toss, etc. made me feel uncomfortable. Taylor did not! Last but not least, literally NOTHING WENT WRONG at our wedding. I still can’t believe it. Taylor was a part of making that happen, very organized and experienced. I remember the venue and vendors impressed by her work, and thankful to have her to coordinate.

    Taylor is a delightful person. I have never used a wedding coordinator, so I don't have anything to compare to... leading up to the wedding, I had some frustration getting ahold of all the information and details I needed... but when it came to my wedding day, I was SO thankful to have Taylor there and I just don't think I could have pulled it all off without her! She also went out of her way to come to my house and pick up a rented microphone that somehow came home with us and returned it for us! She is a gem!
