Weddings by StarDust was an absolute dream team to work with!!! Truly so thankful and appreciative for the kindness, attention to detail, professionalism and care that Marsha and her incredible team showed myself & now husband, our families and friends! Weddings by StarDust was on top of every detail from beginning to end in the wedding planning process and really made our dreams come true. From helping us choose a venue, innovative and creative suggestions for design/planning, absolutely incredible vendor recommendations, and infusing the whole experience with so much joy and fun - we couldn’t be more grateful!! They really made the planning process so seamless and amazing. We had so much fun and it was the absolute best day (and weekend).

My husband and I got married a little over a month ago. We are still in awe of our wedding day. It could not have gone so smoothly or been so perfect without Marsha and her team. Everyone at Stardust were so wonderful and professional. It exceeded my expectations, and I want to thank each and everyone at Stardust who helped make our wedding day the most unforgettable experience of our lives. I have so many fond memories of working with our wedding planner Marsha. She really does care about her clients. The best decision my parents and I made was hiring her. If you are looking for the best wedding planner to work with, choose Stardust. They work so closely with you during the whole way to make sure your day is nothing but perfect.Weddings by StarDust's reply:
Rebecca,
Thank you for this wonderful review. Our job is easy when we have a couple ( thanks to you, too, Ryan) who are full of vision ideas and then fun to work with to make it happen! And, your parents were great all along the way - such a great family! Thank you for engaging our team to be a part of your most special weekend! XOXO Marsha -

Alexis Sent on 09/27/2023Weddings by Stardust was a pleasure to work with and we can't imagine what the wedding planning process would have been like without them.
Weddings By Stardust exceeded my wildest expectations. I would highly recommend to any bride and groom! My husband and I had a 3-day wedding weekend planned that included a rehearsal luncheon, a traditional wedding ceremony, a formal dinner, and a Saturday reception with 300+ guests. Peyton, our lead planner, was such a reassuring, attentive, detail oriented planner. She was always available and responsive, no matter what time I'd text or email her. I now believe there is a real psychology behind talking to the bride in a way that was always comforting, always thinking ahead, handled and had an answer for every little last minute question or worry I had. I never intended on working with any wedding planners or coordinators, but I think all my lucky stars I turned it over to Peyton. Furthermore, I could have never pulled off a big weekend like this all alone. Peyton, Shonna, Jayce and Marsha, I can't thank you guys enough for all the hours of planning, meetings, and attention to the details you all put into our wedding to make it so special. Detail oriented, reassuring, and 100 steps-ahead of you. Weddings by Stardust was a pleasure to work with and we can't imagine what the wedding planning process would have been like without them.
My husband and I look forward to partnering for more events, parties and anniversaries with Weddings By StarDust.Weddings by StarDust's reply:
Thank you, Alexis!!! We loved working with you and JD! Your beautiful art gallery provided the perfect venue for a reception filled with loving friends and family. Plus, the ceremony at the Mansion on Turtle Creek - then dinner at NICK AND SAM'S - WHAT A MAGICAL WEEKEND.
Thank you for engaging our services and the confidence in our team - to let us add to your great ideas! The Stardust Team -

Exceptional Service
We’d like to thank Marsha and her team heartfelt for making our daughters wedding a fairytale. Our daughter lives in MD, we live in HI and the wedding was happening in TX. We needed all the help that we could find. Marsha had the knowledge, the connections with all the vendors and understood my daughter and son-in-law’s vision. We ended up with a better wedding than we could ever have imagined. It was stress free, well planned - well in advance. We had a last trip to meet in TX in February (wedding was April 15th) and all last details were done then. Before the wedding Marsha told us that she’d take care of anything and everything the wedding day and only let us know if it affected us financially. And she did. I still don’t know if there were any details that didn’t go as planned. For us it was a dreamy day just focusing on the happy couple and having so much fun. We were taking care of from the first contact until the day after the wedding. The vendors she works with are phenomenal. We are so thankful and hope that other families gets to experience the wedding planning as fun and stressfree as we did. Thank you Marsha, Peyton and Jacy! -

Genevieve C. Sent on 12/02/2022Tasteful, Elegant, Creative & Easy: Weddings by Stardust
Weddings by Stardust made our wedding dreams come true! I told them I wanted a big, elegant and extravagant wedding and did they ever deliver! Marsha is truly a wedding fairy godmother! They were available for anything we needed and responsive for every moment during the year we planned our wedding.
They have relationships with all the top and best local vendors and made making decisions fun and easy.
When asked what I wanted from a wedding, I told her, “I want to go to a wedding I’ve never been to before. I don’t want to copy or repeat anything anyone else has done but make it personal, beautiful and enchanting.”
Stardust’s creativity and willingness to push us and make special moments for us, our family and guests, were so special: we had an organist play the Jurassic Park theme song in a church, a choir do a flash mob style rendition of stand by me, greenery and lighting tunnel for guests to walk through in the reception, 4 course Italian-inspired meal, espresso martini bar and after party for the ages.
The best part, is that we could tell Marsha and her team had FUN planning this celebration with us. They are true partners, creators and wedding fairy godmothers!
CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH!
We had 5 separate events in 1 weekend that they planned and executed to perfection. If you want the absolute best with people who cause NO DRAMA and ensure everything runs smoothly, then Weddings by Stardust is your only option. They are PERFECTION!Weddings by StarDust's reply:
Genevieve and Dwight,
As you know, I have been planning weddings for over 15 years. Once in a while a couple comes along that gives me the opportunity and the freedom to be creative and to work in collaboratin with them as partners. You and Dwight gave me that gift, I thoroughly loved working with you both and your families!
You are two wonderful, loving people and the world is a better place because of you!
All my best for a wonderful married life,
Marsha, forever your wedding planner.

Working with Marsha, Peyton and The Stardust team exceeded our expectations in every way.
I could not get over how much time Marsha and Peyton dedicated to getting to know us on a personal level. Their amount of patience with my husband (who made it clear he was not into this stuff 75% of the time) and I was exceptional.
They kept us on task all the while making the long process feel fun and light.
Having already been married 11 years ago… I wanted this to be special for my husband and truly capture “us”… I knew what I did NOT want… but not so much what I actually wanted. Marsha and Peyton gave us the ideal wedding. Their attention to detail was above and beyond. It was a bazillion times better than my first wedding (which is saying a lot).
Stardust connected us with awesome vendors and coordinated and stayed on top of everything with the venue— so we were not even more stressed and overwhelmed than we were. The night was both beautiful and so so much fun. Plus, we just completely trusted their expertise-- and had to worry about nothing-- day of.
People have not stopped talking about the wedding and Team Stardust made sure everything flowed perfectly…. Which is saying a lot because there were so many moving parts.
Peyton was the absolute perfect lead. Professional. Friendly. Funny. Patient. We loved our experience and would HIGHLY recommend them. I wish I could go back to that night! I could not have asked for a more perfect evening / day. My husband won't stop talking about it and is raving about Stardust. -

Elizabeth M. Sent on 09/10/2022Run to Weddings by Stardust - AMAZING
I was blessed enough to find Shonna Gainey with Weddings by Stardust for my lead wedding planner. I could not have been paired with a more perfect person to lead me through the planning process and execute the vision for our rehearsal dinner and wedding day. Shonna is amazing in every way. She listens to you, asks the right questions, builds a vendor team (with your input) of the very best of the best and is a calm and graceful leader. She is flexible in her schedule, responds quickly and ensures that everything is exactly as you've asked.
Because of Shonna, I had the perfect wedding day. I was calm all morning, knowing that Shonna and her team were able to handle everything and she would know exactly what I would do or want if something came up. Our vision came to life as if someone was in my mind and was able to take a picture of exactly how I envisioned things and put it into reality. The flowers, music, food, decorations etc were perfect.
I could gush for hours on Shonna, her expertise, her professionalism and her friendship. I am honored to have worked with her and I would recommend her to everyone that asks.
She is worth every single penny (and more)! If you are getting married and looking for a planner, RUN to find her! -

Kristin V. Sent on 07/12/2022Highly recommend Marsha Ballard French!
Marsha Ballard French is absolutely wonderful to work with! We truly hit the jackpot when she took over our daughter's wedding planning with only 4 months to go (after our original planner left the business). She worked tirelessly to understand our vision and her wealth of experience and connections offered us the opportunity to incorporate things we'd not thought of previously. Marsha knew just what we needed, what we could do without, and we trusted her completely! She even managed to find us a string quartet one week out when we realized we’d made a mistake by not including one. Our wedding venue was quite large, and we had a very complicated set up with a lot of moving pieces, but Marsha and her team took care of everything. The wedding was truly like a fairytale, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She is the best in the business and I would highly recommend her to anyone!Weddings by StarDust's reply:
Kristin, Thank you for the kind words. Laure Grace's wedding was so much fun to help plan...our team loved all the details and special touches. Plus, you were fabulous to work with as planning partners. Best to you and your wonderful family. MBF -

Kristen S. Sent on 11/23/2020Could not recommend enough!
I worked with Jacy throughout my wedding process - which was longer than expected. Our original wedding was supposed to be in March of 2020 which had to be canceled due to the pandemic. We had to cancel 6 days beforehand and Jacy worked to help coordinate with all of my vendors to do so and in turn, we were able to secure back 100% of our money. We then rescheduled the wedding to November of 2020 and it went seamlessly! Jacy helped to ease my stress the month prior to the wedding by tying up all of the loose ends with my vendors and coordinating with them all to make sure we had everything we needed. I was wildly impressed by her and her team's professionalism and attention to detail on the day of the wedding. Both our family and friends were raving about them all day! I truly believe the day would not have been as perfect as it was without their help. My husband and I were allowed to enjoy every second of the day while they worked behind the scenes to make sure everything went well. I will be recommending her and Stardust Celebrations to anyone and everyone I know who is looking for a wedding planner in the future! -

Even with COVID they made my dreams come true
Marsha, Sherri, Laura, and the whole Weddings by StarDust team are truly one of a kind. If you are looking for a planners with years of expereince and connections this is who you should go with. I was a COVID bride and ended up having two ceremonies, one in my living room on our original date and another one four months later. The team made sure that though the world might be falling apart that I was their main priority and that my dreams were still coming true. After almost two years of working with this amazing team, I can say that they are friends and family rather than just planners.Weddings by StarDust's reply:
Cathryn, we love you! What an honor and a pleasure to work with you and William. Best of life to you both! The Stardust Team -

Jacy and Corinne went above and beyond for me I cannot thank them enough. I lost my dad in April and between going through my dads estate and planning a wedding I was overwhelmed and they took it over and made me feel like I could actually breathe. I cannot thank them enough. -

Created the wedding of my dreams!!
Marsha and her team helped my groom and I create the most perfect wedding day we have always dreamed of!! (Even amidst the uncertainty of COVID-19)! Every detail was thoughtfully planned and she made sure all of our visions came to life. The wedding day would not have come together and run as smoothly without Stardust. -

Katie S. Sent on 06/24/2019The Best Wedding Planners!
I cannot begin to describe wonderful my experience with StarDust wedding planners was! As a bride, they truly made my dream wedding come together flawlessly! Our planners were Corinne, Jacy, Laura, and Sheri. They helped us think of every little detail that you wouldn't normally think about. We met with them several times before the wedding day, and it was obvious that they had put in countless hours helping us plan every little detail. They were in contact with all of our vendors/photographers/pastor, etc.. My photographer (who is well known in the DFW area) even reached out to me telling me that she had never seen wedding planners as organized and prepared as mine! The day of the wedding, they came 100% prepared down to the minute with exactly what we needed to be doing and helped make sure that others were prepared as well. They showed up looking beautiful, happy, and professional. They were constantly checking in with me, my parents, the groom, and everyone else there making sure that everyone was happy and had everything they needed. They completely took care of any issue that we were unhappy with. I don't know how we could have done it without them! It was definitely money well spent and a significant part of our wedding being drama free and perfect! We will never be able to thank them enough for their hard work and dedication in making our wedding day be everything we had dreamed of! -

Hannah Sent on 06/14/2019Wonderful experience planning from a distance
We highly recommend Weddings by StarDust and our lead planner, Corinne! We went with a partial planning package. Corinne helped us plan our wedding in Dallas while we were living out of state, and she made the process as stress-free and easy as it could have been. We knew nothing about wedding planning and she helped us navigate our vendor decisions, budget, guest list, and all of the day of details with ease. Our wedding day felt totally flawless and went so smoothly thanks to Corinne. -

Chicago Wedding
The moment I stepped into StarDust, I felt like a princess. All of the attention was on me and I'm grateful how patient the ladies were with me to decide on the perfect dress for my wedding day. The venue has a wide variety of dresses to choose from. Let me tell you; I think I tried on all the dresses.
Since we had such a great experience in our wedding gown selection, we decided to hire Stardust for our wedding planning. Marsha and her team covered every detail and helped us plan and execute the perfect wedding. There were things we had no idea existed. Marsha was very professional, patient, and understanding of our wants and needs.
I would not hesitate to recommend Marsha and her Stardust team.
