We used Hoopes Weddings & Events for my daughters wedding reception. They provided the decorations, flowers, cake and refreshments. Right from the start Tonya was so helpful. This was our first wedding so we had so many questions. She was quick to respond and worked within our budget. Their first priority was making us happy, and went above and beyond, even finding fabric that matched our bridesmaids dresses for the tablecloths. The flowers were perfect, the cake was so good that it was completely eaten, and refreshments were wonderful as well. On the day of the reception we ended up having a crazy thunderstorm an hour or so before the reception was supposed to start. They pulled everything inside while it rained, and then got us set back up outside before the guests arrived. Everything was perfect!

Excellent wedding planner

Mackenzie did an excellent job as our wedding planner. Very responsive, helped us choose all the decorations, followed up with all the vendors, and troubleshooted our hotel block which was amazing. If you're debating whether or not to get a wedding planner, I would definitely say go for it. Your sanity will thank you later.

Mackenzie was such an asset on our wedding day!

We worked with Mackenzie as our day-of coordinator and she made it easy for me to fully enjoy my wedding day. She went above and beyond and was so helpful! We got married on top of a mountain so between juggling vendors and all of the usual logistics, Mackenzie also tackled the additional logistics that came our the wedding venue (e.g., getting guests to the ceremony location via chairlift). She was always willing to hop on a call and provide advice leading up to the wedding date, which I was so grateful for. Come the day of, she was authoritative and took control. Can’t say enough great things about Mackenzie! I highly recommend working with Hoopes!
