“Words cannot express how thankful we are for all that you did to make our party a success. I knew every step of the way you had it taken care of and it would all come together perfectly. Your connections with vendors, great communication, and overall vision for the party made this all so easy, beautiful and FUN! Thank you for going above and beyond in helping get everything to the house and returned after the party. You probably take for granted the memories and moments you create in people’s lives because you do this everyday, but you truly are so impactful in creating moments and memories that live on, and that’s not a small feat!”

“We hired Ashley a few months before our September wedding for both design and coordination. Ashley went above and beyond to help us find the perfect vendors during a difficult year. She also helped with almost all design components. Ashley worked with our florist to create such a beautiful vision. She was worth every.single.penny.

Ashley also made wedding planning fun. Most of the process up until we began working with Ashley was overwhelming and completely outside our comfort zone. Our discussions and planning with Ashley made the process enjoyable. Ashley also made everything seamless on the day of. The day was executed perfectly and it was a relief to be able to leave the venue that night knowing she was taking care of everything. We cannot recommend Ashley & Midwestern Bride enough.”

“I am very Type A and organized, so I was a little nervous handing over the reins, but I knew after my first conversation with Kanoe that we were in great hands. She is extremely personable, detail oriented, down to earth, but at the same time very "no nonsense", essentially the perfect wedding planner. She does not push her opinions, but helps you make final decisions if you are having a hard time. She answered all my emails in an extremely timely manner and was even able to in the final week before our wedding secure our late night snack vendor that we were having trouble reaching for months. She was poised and in control our entire day and truly did not allow me to worry about anything, even if I tried! She kept in mind our hope to not spend too much time taking photos after dinner and came to get us for our first dances so our timeline did not get too thrown off. She also saved the day with a handful of safety pins when my dress broke with about an hour left in the night. I swear I had barely looked up after feeling it break and there she was already fixing the problem. We have gotten so many compliments about how beautiful our day was and I truly think Kanoe was a big part of that. She made our vision come to life. I would 100/10 recommend her to anyone.”

“I hired Ashley a year and a half before my wedding, actually the week after my sister’s wedding when I saw her work first hand. She impressed me that much.

“Do I need a wedding planner?” a bride (or groom) may ask. Surely it is an added expense but the best way I can describe Ashley’s services is that she allows the bride and groom to feel like a guest at their own wedding. We had a meeting about a month before wedding when she went over EVERYTHING. She then followed up with all vendors to make sure everything was addressed and made a timeline (which is a lot harder than it seems).She was really there for EVERYTHING. Trust me brides (and grooms), her service is something that is worth it- I promise.“
