Soirée Event Designs

I had saved my money to hire a wedding co-ordinator for our daughter's wedding. We chose Soiree Event Design and Lynsey was chosen as our co-rodinator. What a blessing is all I can say. From our first meeting with Lynsey I could feel the burden lifted from my shoulders. A very professional young woman with attention to the smallest of details. Loved that about her. The details are always what makes the difference! I feel like our wedding was not an easy one to deal with since the wedding and reception were in two different venues, the bride lived in another state, and the decor was not typical wedding decor. We also had the ceremony in two languages, plus providing services for the wedding weekend to accommodate the Brazillians that were in town and needed recommendations for various services they requested while here. Lynsey was on top of everything from recommendations for stylists to timing of vendor deliveries, to decor, to ceremony timing and sound checks. Anything I had a question about, Lynsey helped with. I without a doubt would recommend Lynsey again and again. She made a huge difference in how the day ran. Our only regret us that this was our last daughter to get married and will not have an opportunity to work with Lynsey again. Kudos to Soiree for having her on staff.

I can't say enough great things about Megan and the team at Soiree. I worked with Megan as a full service planner, and she was amazing from start to finish! I was a very indecisive bride, and Megan was very patient and able to nudge me along when I was not sure of what I wanted. All of the vendors Megan recommended were great and affordable. She did a great job keeping within the budget, while allowing us to splurge on the things most important to us.
The day of the wedding was worth every penny to have a planner! All we had to do was show and she took it from there. Everything went smoothly, or at least that is what I thought, which meant that Megan did a fantastic job! Even my Dad, not a man of many words, said, "I was so impressed with Megan. She was right by your side up until the very end."
I highly recommend Soiree for any of your planning needs. By FAR the best money spent on our wedding!

Soirée Event Designs...Danielle and her assistant were amazing...all the details for the day of the wedding and leading up to the big day,we're seamlessly coordinated. We felt confident that any issues that arose would be dealt with competently and professionally. We were completely worry free and it was thanks to Danielle and her team....we highly recommend her!

My event planner was Kari and she was fabulous. To be honest, my day ran so smoothly that I didn't even know what kind of obstacles she ran into until I asked her a couple questions after the wedding. That says it all! I was able to relax and enjoy my day because I completely trusted Kari and knew she would make everything work. She was very thorough and responsive to emails. I would recommend working with Kari at Soiree!

We hired Soiree for "month of" services. About 4-6 weeks ahead of the wedding we turned over all vendor contracts and the completed informational packet they provided. Jane Guest was our wedding coordinator. She took it all and ran with it. We did next to nothing from that point on. Jane coordinated the night of the rehearsal ... brought lunch to the bridesmaids the day of the wedding and orchestrated the wedding ceremony and reception flawlessly ... down to fixing the button on Dad's tuxedo right before the walk down the aisle. As the parents of the bride ... we hit the sidewalk at midnight with the car loaded. As I said ... we did nothing but enjoy the evening. Worth every penny!

Jane Guest at Soiree was just great! We contracted for the 'day of wedding' service and could not be happier with all that she did to make the day one we will always remember. A true value. Easy to work with yet very professional in her approach. As MOB, it was fabulous to be able to turn off my cell phone and just enjoy the day!!! Recommend HIGHLY.

Having help from Soiree Event Designs was the best thing we did for the wedding. Lynsey, our coordinater not only went beyond the call of duty to make our schedule work for meetings with her, she brought professional advice and amazing follow through. We would not have been able to enjoy the day nearly as much had it not been for her reliable and amazing support. I would thoroughly recommend getting some type of planning help! It makes all the difference!!

Soiree's quality of service was above and beyond. We used them for day of and ceremony coordination. It did not matter the day of the week or whether it was months or days before the wedding, they always responded to emails and phones call the same day, mostly within the hour. If you ask me, they were a priceless addition to our wedding day. They took care of everything the day of so that I could just enjoy the whole day without having to worry about one detail. I would recommend their services to any family member or friend getting married in the area.

I was on the fence about using a wedding planner and if it was really worth the cost, but my fiance convinced me to go with the full service planning option and it was hands down the best decision we made. Danielle was amazing to work with, she always responded to my emails and texts within a few hours and she was so organized and on top of things. She offered us suggestions when we asked for them and help us navigate the hundreds of decisions with minimal stress. Two days prior to our wedding we found out the elevator at our reception venue was not working and we were seriously considered moving to a new venue. Within hours of talking to Danielle she had an alternate venue for us to look at and had outlined exactly what the additional costs would be. Her staff was amazing - they took care of everything from addressing our invites to preparing our programs. She was with us every step of the way and the event was flawless. The day of our wedding I didn't have to worry about anything but having fun and spending time with my family and friends. Using Soiree Event Designs was the BEST decision we made in planning our wedding!

I worked with Megan and thoguht she was very helpful in recommending vendors and helping me with some "behind the scenes" tasks. I still felt like I got to plan my own wedding, but I don't think the day would have gone as well as it did without her!

Megan was amazing! My husband and I needed day of coordinating services and it was one of the best investments we made for the day. Everything was setup perfect and ran smoothly! Megan also helped us with our rehearsal and went to final meetings with vendors. I would highly recommend Soiree's services!

I wish I could give Danielle at Soiree Event Designs 10 stars!! She was the PERFECT "day-of" wedding planner and was EXACTLY what we were looking for!! We had a lot of details to our wedding and she knew them inside and out. Because of her and her assistant, everything went off without a hitch and will be forever remembered as the best day of my life :) THANK YOU!!

Megan was extremely professional and responsible, but also a blast to work with. I am a huge planner, so knew I would need help the day of so I was assured everything would go perfectly. Megan made the day perfect!

Megan with Soiree Event Designs is such a wonderful and professional person. We hired her for the day of coordination and she was a blessing!! Cost was also very resonable for the amount of work she did! She made sure my wedding day went smoothly and I never had to worry about anything! She is very organized and her assistant also was there to help on wedding day. She made my wedding day the best day of my life and by having her it allowed our family and friends the opportunity to enjoy themselves and not feel like they were "working". I highly recommend her! she truley was a blessing for me!

Danielle was our planner and she was worth every penny. She recommended every vendor that we used and we received great service and exceptional products from each and every one of them. I really don't know how we could have done it without her. We got to enjoy every aspect of our wedding without having to worry about all of the logistics involved (so did our family - they were actually just guests!).

I was so happy with my decision to hire a day of coordinator. I was able to email or call with questions throughout the entire planning process. She also helped me stay on budget and provided me with vendor suggestions.

The day before and day of, Danielle was remarkable. Of course we had a few bumps, but she made sure I thought of nothing else but to enjoy the day.

I would defnitely recommend!

Danielle was wonderful to work with and helped me with every aspect of my wedding day. She was considerate of our tight budget and provided me with great vendor suggestions. On the day of the wedding, she handled everything so that all I had to do was be a happy bride!

I can not say enough good things about Soiree Event Designs. I never thought I would be privileged enough to work with a planner, but thankfully, my parents were one step ahead of me. I was fortunate to have grown up near Megan, so I knew she had great taste before we even hired her. We worked with Megan from start to finish and I can honestly say that the work she did was priceless. I had a few solid ideas, in my head, going in, but am chronically indecisive, as is my husband. Megan not only presented an array of wonderful vendors from which to choose, she patiently and politely pushed me towards making the best decisions. As we were getting closer to the date, my work became increasing stressful and time-consuming. With a month or two to go, I almost handed everything off to her, knowing it would all turn out great. I hung in for part of it, while she handled some of the final meetings alone. Despite the fact that I can be a worrier, I did not loose an ounce of sleep after we hired Soiree Event Designs. The week before the wedding, I worried most about wrapping things up at work and getting bags packed for the honeymoon. I enjoyed every minute of our wedding day and I owe a majority of that to Megan, Danielle and their staff. Friends and family continue to tell us this was one of the best weddings they had ever attended. We received wonderful complements on everything from the ceremony to the last dance!

I did all the wedding planning myself but needed help with the day of as far as coordinating goes. That's where Danielle from Soiree comes in. I contacted them about getting day-of coordination and from the beginning, Danielle was very responsive and always replied promptly. She helped me where I needed it most- instructing everyone what to do and where to be at the Rehearsal and on the day of the wedding. The ceremony could not have gone so smoothly with her and I am sure of that. It was one of the best investments I made for this wedding.

I contacted Megan at Soiree Event Designs at the point when I knew I was in over my head. My fiancee and I had very demanding jobs, and we were getting married in around 2 to 3 months! I needed a day-of planner and thankfully Megan was available. My main goal was to be able to enjoy the day and focus on the most important thing - GETTING MARRIED - and not the details. If I wasn't doing it, though, I needed to know I could trust someone to see and manage the vision the way I would. Megan not only managed the day, but added so much! For just being a day-of planner, I felt I was being spoiled! Soiree took care of so much BEYOND just the day of. They took time to get to know us, what we wanted. I hate to sound cliche, but they not only went above and beyond....They SOARED above the rest! They were professional, creative, thoughful, and most importantly, they allowed me to focus on what was most important to me... getting married. If I could score them above 5 stars, I would.

I was a bride with a vision, but needed help pulling all my ideas together. Megan at Soiree was the third wedding planner I met with, and was instantly a perfect match! Initially I was attracted to the budget-friendly price compared to the others I'd interviewed, but after our wedding I realized I would have paid much more for their services.

Megan was very attentive, perceptive and professional. Without Megan I would have been a royal mess by the time my wedding date arrived. With her I didn't feel the need to stress over the details because I had faith in her and her abilities.

I highly, highly recommend Megan and Soiree Event Designs! They made our wedding day a success, and we are still receiving positive comments. I am honestly sad that our wedding is over because I enjoyed the entire process so much, but life as a married woman is awesome!

When our daughter (and only child) became engaged I couldn’t wait to begin planning the wedding. I set two goals for myself. The first was to give our daughter the wedding of her dreams (or as close to it as possible) and to personally enjoy the day. I did not want to be the MOB frantically running around putting out fires the day of the wedding while everyone else was having a great time. I wanted to have the great time too!

Megan helped us to achieve those goals.

Megan far exceeded our expectations. When the Father of the Bride notices and is “WOWED” by the wedding coordinator you know she is awesome. He commented several time about how flexible Megan was and her willingness to accommodate us. He was especially impressed by her positive, can do attitude.

Megan has a great personality, was easy to work with and accessible. Phone calls and e-mails were returned promptly. Even after the wedding Megan e-mailed me with a reminder about a vendor refund due to me. I know Megan is very busy - but I always walked away with the feeling we were her priority.

The vendors suggested by Megan were professional and delivered a high quality of service for a fair price. Megan worked well with the church coordinators, vendors and the hotel staff - BUT she was clearly an advocate for us. Throughout the planning Megan offered helpful suggestions based on her experience.

Megan has the ability to instill confidence, When she says something is taken care of - it is. For the first time in my life I did not feel the urge to double check anything - it was amazing!

The day of the wedding Megan and Danielle did it all - from getting the brides car valet parked to making sure everything belonging to us was packed up and transported from the hotel at the end of the evening.

For me it was one of the best days of my life. The joy in seeing my beautiful daughter walk down the isle with her dad to begin a new chapter her in life was a once in a life time experience. Megan understood our daughter’s vision and helped create the wedding of her dreams. She understood my desire to enjoy the day - I have no idea if there were any fires to put out or not - if there were Megan and Danielle took care of them. In my mind everything was perfect.

- Megan deserves all the success in the world because she has earned it. If I had another daughter and she became engaged my first phone call would be to Megan!

Up until a month before our wedding I had done most of the planning on my own. Then I found Danielle with Soiree Event Designs. She came highly recommended by her sister Andrea with Branches and Twigs, and Danielle and her staff met every expectation and more they went above and beyond "Day of planning." She was always a phone call away when I had questions and made me feel very relaxed so that I was able to enjoy the day. I couln't have done it without them!! Well worth every penny, I probably would have paid double :) It was great to have her by my side throughout the day, she made sure there wasn't any bumps in the road, and if there were we didn't know about it. I can't say enough nice things about them!

I (literally) can't sing the praises of Soiree enough. We contracted them for their full-service package and from the on-set, both Megan and Danielle approached every single request with an enthusiastic "we will make it happen" attitude (an approach not seen with other planners we interviewed). As we live in Los Angeles and were wed in Barnes, KS. (population 162), it was crucial that we work with a team that not only understood the level of sophistication we wanted to bring to this event (especially amidst discerning attendees that included renowned fashion photographers, film producers and celebrities), but could carry it out to completion amongst a remote area where resources weren't readily available.
Serving as our main point of contact to local KC vendors, Soiree linked us up with amazing vendors that were happy to make the 3+ hour trek to Barnes and were also of the same "we will make it happen" mindset.
They eased worry by outling a production and payment timeline and worked with us to define a budget, even going so far as to negotiate with vendors on our behalf in an attempt to adhere to our pre-set budget (Yes, they do the dirty work too!).
They helped secure the florist, caterer, staffing, venue, tenting, lighting, tables, alcohol, just to name a few and even went so far as to help coordinate guest flights, lodging and also uncover special rates for car rentals and group flights (even creating special Welcome Bag care packages waiting for each guest at their rental car). They are OCD with details!
On the day before and of the wedding (when you really see the true colors of a planner), they handled EVERY single detail with well thought-out care and went above and beyond our expectations, again with the details.
I apologize for the novel, but I don't feel I can put into words or do justice to the amazing experience we had with Soiree.
I'd be happy to speak to anyone personally that may be considering using them. Post-wedding, you too will have trouble putting all they do, the support and guidance they provide and the professionalism into words. We wish only the best for Megan and Danielle and a lifetime of happiness for all those reading this.

Did so much and was so flexible and willing to help out. My reception space looked so amazing and I didn't have to worry about decorating or staying after - I also didn't have to ask friends and family to stay and take down everything when I really wanted them to relax and enjoy the weekend. I highly recommend Danielle and Soiree Event Designs!

Megan and Danielle are two of the most talented, organized, and professional women that I know. They made my wedding planning experience so easy and so much fun! I was truly able to enjoy every moment of the whole process because every detail was covered! My mom and I continue to talk about how my wedding day was absolutely perfect and it truly was because of Megan and Danielle! Thanks for everything!!!!

My wedding was over a year ago, and I am still very impressed with the level of service I recieved with Danielle and Megan. I am currently helping my best friend plan her wedding and it reminded of what a god send Danielle and Megan were to me, and led me to write this review. I told my friend she had to meet with them, and she is using them too! I have a ridiculously busy schedule, am horribly unorganized and I am not technically a girly girl. I know nothing about flowers, dresses, cakes, favors, invitations, etc... The only thing I really cared about was the venue and the band. That is where Soiree came in, they helped me plan a gorgeous wedding and have excellent taste. Before having their help I was lost and overwhelmed with so many decisions, could not keep everything straight, and had no idea what needed to be done. They helped to guide me in the right direction, helped me make the "girly" decisions, they kept me on track with my budget and schedule. They relieved my stress level by 100 percent. When the day of my wedding came, everything was seamless, I actually got to enjoy my day with my new husband and family without having to worry about any of the behind the scene work. They were amazing and I would highly recommend them! My friend told me they are opening a bridesmaid store called Bella bridesmaid in Brookside. I am very excited to see what they have to offer!

I am writing as a MOB. We couldn't have been more pleased with Soiree Events and the services they provided. Although we only contracted for "day of" services, Megan went above and beyond in meeting with us, answering questions, contacting ventdors, coordinating arrivals at both church and reception, transporting things between the 2 locations, making sure details were taken care of at the end of the night, and providing creative ideas when we were stumped! I remember thinking the day before the wedding "I should be doing something--or worrying about something"..but Megan had taken care of all those "last minute" things. I was able to totally relax and appreciate the beauty and joy of my daughter's wedding thanks to Soirree's professional handling of all the details. Several our vendors contacted me after the wedding to let me know how much they enjoyed working with Soiree. We couldn't be happier. If you want creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail, look to Soiree!

Soirre Event Designs was AMAZING to work with! They provided day of event coordination for my wedding this Spring. After meeting with Megan & Danielle for the first time, I knew that they would take a lot of the stress out of my wedding week. They were very detail oriented and on top of everything before it even crossed my mind! Soirre Event Designs worked very well with my other vendors and made the day run PERFECTLY! I was really able to relax and enjoy my wedding day thanks to Megan! I would highly recommend Soirre Event Designs to any bride!

Both Danielle and Megan are Fantastic Planners! They have a great sense of style and ability to understand what their client is asking for. A pleasure to work with and a delight to know as people. I am so happy they were a part of my Big Day, they really made it beautiful and excactly what I wanted! Could not have asked for more!

Megan and Danielle are quite the dynamic duo! Not only do they offer gorgeous dresses thru their Bella Bridesmaid shop, but they also orchestrate and design some of the most beautiful weddings in Kansas City! Their styles are expansive and their ideas are stunning!
