Becky was absolutely wonderful to work with and so much fun to brainstorm ideas with. She was able to capture so much of what I love into each arrangement and I received compliments all night! Becky even helped track down our dog's bowtie from a back room to make sure he was "ready for his closeup" in photos. Each meeting with Becky was collaborative and fun to outline what we wanted the day to be! My mother and I both enjoyed working closely with her and the beautiful arrangements of the day were everything we discussed and more! I highly recommend working with Lilly Lane and Becky in particular!

LOOK NO FURTHER- truly the best florist you can find in Indianapolis, hands down. I cannot rave…read moreenough about Lilly Lane. They are a true local Indianapolis shop... engaged in the community and full of wonderful people. They were a delight from start to finish. We were clueless about the whole process of wedding planning, and they were SO informative and helpful, while not being pushy at all. Prices are so reasonable for the quality of what they deliver, and they worked with our budget and vision. It was such a stress relief to know they were on our team, and would do an incredible job without a lot of input from us (especially the day of). If you are planning any event, especially a wedding, look no further. As the bride, I was just so stressed with all of the planning, and they just made me SO comfortable and at ease from the first meeting. It made the floral aspect something I didn't have to worry about in the slightest. Sharing a photo of my bridal bouquet because...WOW. Stunning, cascading white orchids that were just beyond my high expectations. You can tell they are passionate about florals and also their clients. We could not have been happier.

Let me preface this by saying that I, myself, am an event planner. My husband and I are capable of…read moreplanning events, and even enjoy doing it. So, "Why??", you ask, did we get a wedding planner? Well, let me ask you: do you want to enjoy your wedding? Or do you want to be running around making sure the DJ cues your dad to the dance floor in between mingling with the most special people in your life? Your wedding will already go SO quickly - don't waste it by attending to the small details. Jessica was AWESOME. I'm a laid-back bride and I appreciated her relaxation, yet incredible attention to detail, during the planning process. We met for coffee twice and communicated via email in between. She brought up questions I hadn't even thought of, created the agendas, communicated with vendors, chimed in when we needed advice and made our wedding perfect. She's the kind of wedding planner that will make sure you eat at your own wedding (so you don't pass out), will snag you for that perfect sunset shot, and keep the event running smoothly while you enjoy the best night ever. She's amazing, kind, efficient, professional, and fun. Definitely recommend!

I got married a week ago today in Muncie. We had the ceremony in a church and the reception for 150…read morepeople at my parents' home. So, when we began planning, we knew we'd need some extra hands on deck as our venue didn't come with a built in events coordinator. Plus, I was planning a wedding in Indiana from my home in San Francisco, which can be very stressful. I got Jessica's name from two girlfriends, and after my initial email to her about a year ago, we got on the phone to talk through my wedding vision. Now, as a publicist, I have planned my share of large scale events, so I really wanted Jessica to sell me (and especially my parents) on her services and why we would need her help. And that's exactly what she did! Jessica has so much experience planning all kinds of weddings, she asked really smart and detail-oriented questions, but I think what sold me is that Jessica also had an outdoor, at home reception in September a few years ago, so I knew she'd take great care of us. Jessica's support throughout the process was so critical to helping us pull off a fabulous wedding. What I love most about Jessica is that she wants to work with brides who love to plan - that's me! In the months leading up to the wedding, Jessica's makes sure you've thought of absolutely everything and nothing falls through the cracks. We had one or two calls last Fall to talk through wedding details and decide on the right planning package for us (more on that below). When I was back in Indiana in the Spring, Jessica came to my parents' home in Muncie to walk through the yard and help us make some decisions on placing the tent, band, bar, etc. She has so much experience and really great ideas, so she helped us take lots of things into consideration. Then, we had two more meetings to run through every single detail before the big day. She's very flexible on timing for meetings and what works best with your schedule. We selected JDWC's Wedding Day package, which consists of 12 hours on-site on the wedding day, plus planning meetings leading up to the big day. My parents were a little hesitant when they saw the price tag, but I can't tell you how many times throughout the planning process I heard them say "I don't know what we would do without Jessica - she's worth every penny!" and I couldn't agree more. I would highly recommend Jessica Dum Wedding Coordination to any bride who is thinking she might need some help on her big day!

My husband and I are "go with the flow" type people, which can be great, but isn't always the best when planning a wedding. We tend to procrastinate and put things off. Megan was our saving grace with keeping us on track with the tasks we needed to accomplish, as well as taking stuff off of our plate and handling it herself. Through the entire year of planning our wedding, she went ABOVE and BEYOND what was asked of her. She made the planning process much easier and my husband and I did not have to worry about a single thing on our wedding day. She handled every detail, while we were able to relax and enjoy our special day. We can't thank Megan enough for making our wedding so perfect!

I visited Black Iris Estate as a wedding guest, and I was impressed. And guess what: Black Iris…read moreEstate has a very large basement! How do I know this? Because I and the several dozen other people attending the wedding plus the staff got to visit the basement because there was a tornado warning in the area, and we all had to seek shelter. Whee! The staff at Black Iris were pros, though, and made sure everyone was safe and calm. They made a stressful situation into a (kinda) fun situation that everyone will remember forever. Anyway, the basement is large, but so is the rest of the space! And it's beautiful and tastefully decorated, with lots of antiques and mirrors. We never really got to go outside because the wedding was happening during severe weather, but from that little I saw, the grounds were beautiful too. Also, the food here was some of the best food I've had at a wedding. I'm not sure if the food was from an outside caterer or what, but I want to say that it was in-house. And the open bar was nice, too, and the bartenders were quick and generous. I enjoyed myself as a wedding guest at this place. It was classy but comfortable!

I debated on posting my review, even though I told the owner that I would be posting a negative…read morereview, because I come from a family of small business owners and know how reviews can impact the business. The more I thought about it, I would be upset if my experience happened to another couple. I'll be honest, if I could give them a negative review, I would. Let me just start by saying that I was super excited to use this company to get married. Like everyone else, Covid19 changed our wedding plans, so we opted to get married on the canal and only have a few family members there. We booked our date (5/20/20), paid our fee (on 5/4) and received our confirmation email and text. Due to the courthouse being closed, we had difficulty getting our license, we called & text IWD several times (5/14), but never received a response. In the end, we were able to get our license, we called and text again to give an update, but no answer, no reply. The day was getting closer, but we had not heard a single word from IWD since the initial call when we booked everything. We started getting nervous that something had happened and we started looking at other options and started calling/texting IWD again. After the seventh or eighth call, we finally got a hold of someone, on 5/19. The office manager, Shelby and the owner, Angel, assured us that someone would be there, as planned, on 5/20 at the spot they set up to meet us at. The owner, Angel, personally assured us that someone else would be there since she was supposed to do the ceremony but was dealing with some personal issues. We were given an apology for the lack of communication and a family emergency excuse. No worries, we would still be able to get married. Family flew in from out of state and showed up...we drove to the canal and waited, and waited, and waited. We called, text, emailed - but no one bothered to reply. We all waited on the side of the road, dressed up, family waiting in cars and on the street, but no one from IWD bothered to tell us that they weren't coming. Eventually IWD did reply to a text, advising that they were still trying to find someone to show up, but that the "best they could do" is marry us the following week. I requested a refund, but they told me that they have a "no refund policy" - I explained that their policy is if we do not show - not that the company doesn't show up. I'm not sure if they understand the concept of getting married, you know, planning a day, having family there, etc. - it's not like we placed an order for food and they lost the order, it was meant to be a special day and their lack of professionalism was icing on the cake. We ended up using SAME DAY WEDDINGS - who, at the last minute, came to their office to perform our ceremony. We did not have the canal wedding that we planned for, but SAME DAY WEDDINGS saved the day and got us officially married. They apologized for the OTHER company not doing their job and potentially ruining our day. After several weeks, on 6/8, the owner answered the phone and gave me her family emergency story again, apologized and stated that she would issue a refund. A week later (6/15), still no refund and they still don't answer calls, texts or emails. I had to go through my bank to get my money back. If you're even remotely considering using IWD for your special day, run the other way and use someone else!
