We initially thought we did not want a wedding planner. But our wedding venue, Piney River Ranch,…read morerequired a "day of" wedding planner. After interviewing several on their list of preferred vendors, we were relieved to find Marguerite and we feel fortunate we were able to work with her. She takes time to get to know the people she is working with and has a wonderful and thoughtful way of figuring out what is wanted and needed. Further, she makes things come together without fuss or fanfare. She is attentive to details but keeps sight of the "forest" in addition to the "trees". We had some unusual requests and she handled them beautifully. Our officiant had had bad experiences with Wedding Planners and he was less than keen to have to someone else "running the show". Marguerite was not offended by his request that she be to the side and take instructions from the officiant during the wedding. We wanted a low key wedding with the focus being the beautiful views and the wildflower meadows present at the venue. We did not want traditional wedding flower arrangements. We wanted to use river rocks and greenery on the tables along with the battery operated candles required by the venue. Marguerite kindly stored the battery operated candles I found so we had ones we liked. She helped us work with a florist to come up with greenery that was just right. Once Marguerite understood the look we were trying to achieve, she worked with us and the tables looked lovely. She even helped collect natural river stones which she then put back in the river. She has a deep rolodex of people with whom she works and we have no doubt what ever kind of wedding you dream of Marguerite can help you make it happen.

I worked alongside her for this wedding from about 2 months out to plan and prepare. What really impressed me was her patience in dealing with me as an entertainer and ability to partner with me to make everything run smoothly. Upon arrival, she and her team had everything prepared, there was amazing sense of order and peace. For events, it is great to have people that can handle the situations with ease and a smile. That is my impression of Kelly and her team. I could not have been more equipped walking into and during the Wedding. The guests were so happy and taken care of due to her staff's execution and talent. Cant wait to work with them again.

I've never had a party like in my life and I didn't ever think that I would. It was amazing." It brought tears to my eyes :) People have been complimenting us left and right and I have made sure to let all the brides to be and everyone know that it was all Frosted Pink Weddings hard work and incredible efforts, so thank you!! Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts! :)

She was always quick to respond via email or text and we never had issues finding time to schedule zoom calls with her. She was present and so helpful throughout our whole wedding weekend. Shawna always offered great insight on calls with our vendors and ensured they all had our wedding day timeline. She called all of our vendors before our wedding weekend to review details regarding timing, parking, getting around, etc. She also gave them all her cell number and was always available, so none of them needed to contact us during our wedding weekend. Overall, we would definitely recommend hiring Breck Mountain Weddings to help with your wedding planning/coordination needs.

I deal with a lot of vendors and I knew my same-day request (on a Saturday no less) would probably be met with cranky "not possible in the timeline" responses. Instead, I met Jolene on the other end of the phone. What a warm and positive person! She immediately took on my problems with grace and alacrity. She not only solved the heaters and blanket asks but also added so many details that I would never have thought of. Baskets to hold the blankets. Blankets tied with twine. Additional black napkins in case someone was wearing a dark outfit. Found local wines and beers. Just extremely thoughtful in everything she did. My event was not big or expensive. I'm from out of town so I'm probably not a repeat client (wish I could be!). And I had a very last minute weekend request. And Jolene pulled through 110%. I would trust her to plan just about anything. You'll be in the best hands.
