BRE | Day-of Wedding Coordinator

Best money spent for the wedding. Bre was such a tremendous help to my daughter (and now son-in-law) - suggesting vendors, coordinating details, and best of ALL her runing the show on the actual wedding day. I know I would not have had as much fun or time with family and friends at the wedding if she had not been there. My daughter keeps thanking me for finding Bre and I can not thank Bre enough for giving me the gift of peace thru the whole process.

Working with Bre was probably the smartest, most significant decision my husband and I made while planning and hosting our wedding. Bre helped us find our officiant and our DJ, which were both perfect fits for the ceremony we had in mind. Leading up to the wedding, Bre provided an incredible peace of mind by organizing to-do lists and timelines to keep us on track. The day of my wedding I was able to enjoy spending most of the day with friends and family, as I didn't have to worry about details such as set-up or orchestrating vendors. When my maid of honor's dress broke while she was dancing during the reception, Bre literally sewed it back together. After the wedding, Bre took care of the clean-up, and all the gifts and decorations arrived back with me neatly packaged together. Bre has mastered being organized without being overwhelming, is very professional, and overall...FUN!

Bre is an absolute gem of a person and rockstar day of coordinator. My wife and I weren’t sure if we wanted to hire someone to help us with pulling off our wedding (we’re both pretty good at event planning and being organized) but once we met Bre, we had to work with her. She’s worth every penny and much more and made our day better with her expertise and fun personality. As a same sex couple we were really hesitant about what vendors and venues we talked with about bringing on our team. It was super important for us to work with people either inside the LGBTQ community or allies who really get it so all of our guests felt comfortable and safe. If you’re a queer couple thinking about a day of coordinator and have some of our same worries, hire Bre. Absolutely 100% would recommend her to all of my friends and family. I can’t wait to see where Bre’s business goes. As you can tell by all the reviews, she’s absolutely nailing it. I can’t thank Bre enough for all the hard work she put into our wedding and I know she will help you make yours special as well :)

Bre is a freaking rockstar! We can't even imagine what would have been if we hadn't found Bre to be our Day of Coordinator. Without a doubt the best money that we spent on our big day at PAIKKA. She made our day stress free, easy and most of all FUN! We are forever grateful to Bre and strongly recommend her for anyone looking to have an incredible, carefree wedding day.

Bre did such an AMAZING job helping us plan our wedding. She was so great to work with, and helped us through even the smallest detail. I can't think her enough for making everything so special.

Bre is by far one of my favorite people on this planet. She made planning a wedding a breeze because of her extensive knowledge of caterers, hotels, and any other type of business we wanted her opinion on. She was extremely receptive and got to know both of us and gave us the type of atmosphere that we wanted for our wedding day. She emphasized that we should do what we want with our wedding and that everyone wants something a little bit different. Bre's detail-orientedness shines through her meeting summaries, next steps we needed to take, and day of timeline. She also kept track of time throughout our wedding, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day. Bre contacted our caterers and photographer to confirm when they were showing up, which took the stress out of making sure everything was there on time. I was dreading planning a party this big, but now I want another excuse to work with Bre again.

Bre was our wedding planner for our wedding at Bau Haus Brew Labs on 10/20/2019. SHE IS AMAZING. She met with us multiple times leading up to our event and took insanely detailed notes. She knows what makes an amazing wedding and asked us about every aspect of what would be our dream wedding. The detailed summaries of all our meetings contained all the decisions that were made and all the outstanding questions we needed to answer. She even helped us find one of the food trucks we used for our catering! On the day of, Bre was even more amazing. She was our emcee for the whole day. She organized the arrival of the vendors, the setup for the space, the herding of the people, and kept the whole shindig on schedule. Everyone was raving about how calm and chill the whole reception was. I couldn't imagine having a wedding without Bre. We couldn't have done it without her. I feel compelled to host another large event just so I can work with her again!

Bre is such a special person to work with. She is very organized and intentional in her planning process. I felt very included and involved in every aspect of our special day. I would recommend Bre to anyone!

Bre was wonderful to work with! She is very detail oriented and two weeks out from our wedding date, she did a great job of following up with all of our vendors to ensure nothing had been forgotten. On the day of, there were so many things we thought our parents had taken care of but when we asked we found out it was Bre and her assistant who had taken care of all the "behind the scenes" type activities. I would 100% recommend everyone to have a day-of-coordinator and to go through Bre! She was super positive throughout the entire planning process and reassured us that the day would go perfectly! Having her on our wedding day and pre-planning team was great!

Bre was by far one of the best parts of my wedding. She was so calm and collected throughout the entire day. Leading up the wedding she gave me amazing advice and helped in areas where I would have never thought I needed help. She was also a favorite of my other vendors as they felt more prepared with her helping out. I would give her 10 out of 10 if that were an option :).

Bre is *the* reason we were able to pull off a "destination" wedding in Minneapolis. Not only did she give us her time, her talents, and her expertly curated contacts, but she also went above and beyond by compiling a list of activities out-of-town guests could reference for our website, by radiating her calm demeanor, and by 'saving' us from those wedding guests that want to take up all of your time. She was our sanctuary amongst all the beautiful chaos that is a wedding.

Hiring Bre was the best decision we made! We were absolutely blown away by how wonderful she was! As soon as we hired her - we knew we were in good hands and the wedding planning process became less stressful. Our wedding day was completely stress free and was beyond what we initially imagined it could be. She kept the day on track and was amazing with coordinating our vendors. She embraced the non-traditional wedding vendors we hired and made everything run incredibly smooth... I can't say enough about the value of having her help steer the ship and the piece of mind it gave us throughout the process. She's wonderful, a rockstar really and we'll miss working with her!!!!! We're so grateful for all her hard work that made our wedding day so special... it meant the world to us.

We would give Bre 6 OUT OF 5 STARS if possible. Here’s why: First, she is THOROUGH. Each of our meetings with Bre covered a lot of ground, and she was on top of every detail. Second, she is CALM. We left each planning meeting with Bre feeling encouraged—never anxious about the work still left to do. She brought that same calm demeanor to the rehearsal and wedding day as well. Finally, true to her website, Bre is FUN!!! We genuinely looked forward to spending time with her during our meetings. She was always pleasant to work with, and many guests commented after the wedding about how great she was on the big day. Bre is incredibly talented and goes above and beyond in every part of her job. Because of Bre, our wedding day flowed seamlessly. Just as important—the two of us, our families, and our wedding party were able to relax and enjoy the day knowing that Bre had all of the details covered. For that we are extremely grateful. Our wedding was the best day of our lives! Bre is amazing!!!

We would recommend Bre to ANYONE planning a wedding in the Twin Cities area. From the moment we first spoke to her on the phone, she made us feel comfortable and confident that our big day would go smoothly. She is so calm, patient, smiley, and sweet - everything you want in a coordinator! Plus... she's super cool. Bre provided several detailed vendor recommendations early in the wedding planning process, including our DJ and florist, who ended up being awesome. As my now-husband and I were both the first in our families to get married, we really appreciated Bre's guidance and advice throughout the several months leading up to the wedding. She made clear that she was available and happy to support us and our parents and always responded very quickly to our emails and texts. The week of the wedding, we encountered a few last-minute problems, some big and some small, and Bre helped us tackle them calmly, assuring us that it would all get figured out. And it did! My favorite thing that Bre told us early on in the process was "if something goes wrong on the day of the wedding, you won't know about it." This is exactly the reason to hire a day-of-coordinator. We were able to soak in the magic of the day without worrying about the details and logistics. Thank you, Bre, for everything!

Bre is so amazing! She helped coordinate our wedding day. I didn’t feel stressed or worried once because she was there to coordinate everything and make sure it went smooth. If anything went wrong we wouldn’t have any idea! I don’t think I would’ve gotten through all the planning and day of items without having her there- she is so professional and experienced to make sure everything is ready for the day of the event.

Bre was amazing to work with and I loved having her on our wedding team. She was organized, thorough and kept me sane in the weeks leading up to the big day! Most importantly, she made it so I could relax and enjoy the celebration with our friends and family rather than worrying about set up, take down and the inevitable logistical hiccups. If I had to do it again, she'd be the first vendor I would rebook. I can't recommend her more! If you're planning a wedding in the Twin Cities, you'd be lucky to have her on your team.

Bre was incredible throughout our wedding planning process. She was thorough, organized, and proactive the entire time we worked with her. Bre coordinated with our vendors, family, and attendant to make sure that we didn’t worry about anything on our wedding day. She kept our reception flowing throughout the evening. My husband and I had no worries the entire day because we knew Bre had everything under control. She kept a fun attitude the whole time, she genuinely gets joy from her job! There is no one better than Bre!

Bre is an extraordinary event planner. She provided us with a list of various vendors to consider as we knew absolutely nothing about wedding planning. She was able to coordinate all of our hair, makeup, photography, and other vendor schedules to create one master itinerary that kept us sane. However, the smaller things she supported us with were even more meaningful. For example, throughout the wedding and reception, she brought my chapstick to me which was, perhaps, the most supportive act that anyone did for me during the reception. She spoke with our DJ throughout the night to make sure that he was playing the music and announcing all the things we wanted at various points. She also planned a 20-30 min private time for just my partner and I immediately following the ceremony to enjoy appetizers, beers, and our newly married energy together. That was magical. In the weeks preceding our wedding, she responded to our questions, needs, and last minute hiccups with timeliness, calmness, and always had suggestions about now to navigate the hiccups. Bre is incredible and we HIGHLY recommend her for any event planning or coordination.

Anytime we told a vendor our wedding coordinator was Bre, they would excitely reply "I know Bre! She is awesome!" Bre was such a joy to work with. She is fun, happy, thoughtful, and extremely organized. She had answers to all of our questions, including ones we never thought to ask. Bre had every minute of the day accounted for, worked directly with our vendors, and made sure the wedding party was happy. Everyone was so impressed with her. The only disappointment we have is that we don't get to work with her anymore. Thank you for making our day so fun and stress free!

Bre is amazing and so fun to work with. I walked into my first planning session in a panic because wedding planning is overwhelming as hell, and left knowing everything was going to be perfect. She gave great suggestions when we were unsure of what to do with anything and always kept the vibe of our wedding in mind when doing so. She was also incredibly attentive throughout our whole day. She made sure snack bowls were filled, all of our stuff was packed so we didn't have to do anything at the end of the night, and kept us on track when we were distracted. Everyone who met her at our wedding said they loved her, and you will too!

Bre is AMAZING! She has a bubbly personality, is beyond organized and made our day one that we could just enjoy and not have to worry about anything. She set everything up, coordinated all the vendors, kept the day moving on time, and then cleaned everything up at the end of the night. I would HIGHLY recommend Bre to anyone. My parents are still talking about how amazing she was. One of our best decisions in planning our wedding was picking Bre to be our coordinator!

I didn’t really know what a day of coordinator consist of, but other brides were recommending to have one for my wedding day. I started researching coordinators and after a 30 minute phone call I knew Bre was right for me! She made all my wedding day dreams become a reality. She made sure no detail was forgotten and that everything went as planned. I never would have imagined I would be so calm on my wedding day, any time I called over to Bre about something (sometimes in a panic) she would handle everything so calmly and made me feel so at ease so I could truly focus on my wedding and not on the set up or other people ect. She went so far above and beyond there is absolutely no way my day would have survived with out her!

Bre is by far one of the best investments we made on our wedding day!! We debated whether or not to have a day-of coordinator, and I am so glad we decided to go with one, and even more glad we found Bre. Bre's attention to detail is impeccable--and her organization skills help put a bride's mind at ease. I truly appreciate everything she did for us--from helping us craft a day-of timeline, thinking through every little detail, providing recommendations and thoughts based on her experiences, helping to manage vendors---and perhaps most importantly, ensuring our day went perfectly without any issues!! There is nothing Bre won't do to ensure your day is perfect. She even spent time crawling around on the floor helping to get stains out of my dress before the ceremony. Her energy and happiness is contagious, and helps set the mood for your day. I don't know how we would have pulled everything off without Bre's help. If you are debating hiring a coordinator, I would highly suggest doing so, and choosing Bre.

This is so long overdue (Sorry Bre!) - our wedding was at the end of August 2018.... Hire her. Seriously, do it. It was easily some of the best money spent on our wedding day. She was professional, organized, friendly and got shit done. During the planning meetings, she reacted to every idea we had as if we were the first couple to ever think of it! Amazing. She also let us know whether or not our ideas were feasible and always provided alternative solutions. She always encouraged us to add things to our agenda that may have even sounded outrageous but added the level of fun we were looking for! Everything did go according to plan, or at least that's what it seemed like to us! She took care of everything all while having a great time herself (we think). We'd definitely hire her again!

Can’t say enough positive things about Bre! From the beginning planning to he day of the wedding, Bre was professional, calming and made the entire process stress free. Bre took care of everything so we didn’t have to worry about anything but enjoy every moment of the wedding ceremony and reception. Her ability to work with all of our vendors and transform the space from ceremony to reception was amazing! She made the space truly beautiful! Her service was worth every penny!!

Bre is the best! We had no idea how much we needed a day of coordinator until we started working with Bre. Her attention to detail and organization skills made our day go super smoothly and stress free. Having her be a part of our wedding day made us be able to enjoy it without sweating the small stuff! Would highly recommend her.

We didn't know how much we needed a wedding coordinator until we met Bre! She took care of all the details, big and small. She communicated with our caterer, venue, and sound system supplier to arrange everything for us. Bre made everything so much easier for us, and we didn't have to worry about anything. Every couple needs a Bre to help with their wedding!

Bre made planning our wedding as easy as it could be. She was on top of EVERYTHING. I was not a bride that had been looking forward to planning a wedding my whole life. So I had very little idea where to begin or how to organize things. Bre answered all of my questions and offered suggestions whenever we were unsure of anything. Every meeting with her left us feeling so relieved that we had her in our corner. The week of the wedding, I told my parents that Bre was on top of everything. My dad was skeptical and anticipated things they’d have to jump in and take care of. About half an hour after meeting her the day of the wedding and watching her in action, my dad turned to me and admitted, “Bre is everything you said. She really is amazing.” I don’t know how she does it. She contacted all of our vendors, got everything lined up as we needed it for the big day, keeping every detail we discussed in mind and she remained totally cool, always smiling and upbeat, while doing so. Bre is a miracle worker. I wish she could be my life coach. Her positive attitude is everything you need when planning your wedding. Hire her. It will be the best decision you make.

Bre was absolutely incredible to work with. From the beginning to end, she was incredibly organized and helped everything on our wedding day run smoothly. She really was the best!

I wish I could hire Bre to coordinate my life! We made the best decision when we hired Bre to help us coordinate our September 2018 wedding. She was so easy to work with and asked us about details that we hadn't even considered. She was energetic, friendly, and professional. Bre met with us three times before our wedding to create a timeline for the day. Even if I was feeling stressed about the planning, when I left our meetings with Bre I felt like everything would go smoothly. On the day of our wedding, we were able to enjoy every minute to the fullest. It was the perfect day and Bre was a huge part of why. Hire Bre! She is the best!

Having Bre as our day-of wedding coordinator was one of the best (if not the best!) investments we made for our wedding. She made us feel so special and was genuinely excited for our big day. We were impressed with her balance of being professional and personable (she really is fun!). She went the extra mile to help us organize and get ready for the big day and provided ideas and advice along the way. Having her there allowed us to truly be present and enjoy the entire day.

My mom and I are pretty organized, and for a while, we thought we wouldn't need a day-of coordinator. But as the day got closer, we decided to hire one, did a lot of research and ended up choosing Bre. Seriously, this was probably the best decision we made in the whole planning process. On the wedding day, Bre had a plan for everything and my fiance and I were able to enjoy everything without any stress. I cannot imagine how everything would have come together without her. She was so good and you should definitely hire her!

As the MOB (and also speaking for the FOB), hiring Bre as our day-of wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions we made. The bride and my husband and I all live out of town adding an extra layer of complexity. We had several Skype calls with Bre in the months leading up to the wedding to set our itinerary and for her to answer questions. We communicated frequently by email and Bre was always quick with an answer. By the time of the wedding we had a detailed itinerary set, and since the wedding was planned for outdoors, we had a detailed Plan B as well. Bre ran through both plans at our rehearsal and guided our group with grace and confidence. I can’t say enough about how great Bre was to work with and how competently she handled the evening, even with several last minute big changes due to weather. It was a wonderful wedding and she made it so easy for us. I know there were many things that were going on in the background that I did not have to give a thought to - they just magically happened!! The tables with the place cards and favors looked great, the ceremony set up was perfect, the lit pillar candles were so pretty, the dining tables lovely. All just as we had planned! I also appreciate Bre's little touches like giving the bride and groom a few minutes alone after the ceremony and giving my husband and I a moment to go to the dining room before the guests arrived and savor how beautiful it was. Bre was an absolute delight to work with, completely competent, and as an added bonus... Bre IS fun!

My wife and I recommend Bre without reservation. We hired her for full planning of our wedding, which included day-of coordinating as well as all of the planning the year or so before. Bre is absolutely the best money we spent. We wanted to do a fairly non-traditional event and Bre rolled with all of our weird requests. On top of all of this we planned this wedding (in Minneapolis) while I was living in Chicago and my wife was living in San Francisco! She is patient, incredibly detail-oriented, and tireless. She has good relationships with many vendors, so any idea we had could easily be worked out. But on top of all of that, Bre really is so much fun! We miss talking with her! Planning a big party is complex and stressful, but she really makes it as easy as it can possibly be. And our day was so, so fun, largely because of her effort and expertise. Hire her!

All we can say is Bre is amazing! We hired her for the day of coordinator services and couldn’t be more happy that we did! We were a pretty lax couple when it came to our wedding and Bre made sure we didn’t miss any details. She asked us questions we hadn’t thought of and gave us the confidence to make the wedding day ours-skipping some of the more traditional aspects. It was great having Bre make all the vendor calls the week before. You inevitably get super busy with last minute details and not having to worry about making sure the vendors all got there on time was wonderful. The day of went so smooth- my parents kept asking if they had to do X, Y and Z, and I kept saying nope-Bre’s got this! We were so happy that we could spend our wedding having fun and not worrying about a thing! She was one of the best wedding decisions we made!! Thanks Bre!!!!!

Bre is awesome! She was the best decision we made to ensure our whole day ran smoothly and every single detail was accounted for. Aside from us feeling great about our decision to hire Bre, each and every one of our vendors had previously worked with her and emphasized that she was the best in the biz. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out, and most all of that credit belongs with Bre. I can't recommend her highly enough - not only is Bre fun she is amazingly good at her job!

During the early stages of wedding planning, my fiancé adamantly expressed the need for a day-of wedding coordinator. I was amiss to think we didn't need one. After meeting Bre for the first time, it was clear to see that she knew what she was doing (and that we definitely could use her help). She was warm, friendly, and worked with us to make our vision of the big day a terrific reality. We only have positive things to say about Bre and the work that she does. We are so glad she was on our team! -Justin & Caroline

Hiring Bre to coordinate our day-of events was easily the best decision we made for our wedding. Not only is she attentive, supportive and knowledgeable, but friendly and fun! We loved her easy-going personality and found her a blast to work with. She also helped turn a crazy last few months of wedding planning into something enjoyable. Can't sing her praise enough -- please hire her. You won't regret it!

Bre was not only WONDERFUL to work with, but provided a wealth of knowledge and expertise on wedding day flow, best practices, working with Twin Cities vendors, pitfalls to avoid, etc. that put both my husband and I at ease throughout the entire planning process. There is absolutely no way our day would have flowed the way it did without her. Now we just need to find another event to plan so we can work with her again :) We can't thank you enough, Bre!!

Bre was such a treat to work with! Her organizational skills, communication with us before the wedding and during was exceptional. She was always there helping in any which way she could and of course with a bright beautiful smile! We seriously are so thrilled that we had the privilege of working with Bre and she comes very highly recommended. You WILL NOT be disappointed.

Can I give Bre 10 stars?! Not only is she an abosulte pro at what she does, but she is an incredibly sweet and geniune person! Having her as our day-of coordinator was one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding team. Her help started long before our day with check-ins, advice on vendors, ideas for decor and layouts and gathering all of the million details I accumulated while wedding planning. She put together an all-encompassing day-of schedule that would put a lot of project managers to shame, and she remained super flexible when I changed things last minute. Everything looked beautiful the day-of, and I got so many complements on how wonderful Bre was to work with and have at our wedding. Do yourself a massive favor and hire Bre for all of your wedding planning needs!

My partner and I did not search out to have Bre be our day-of coordinator, but thanks to Bauhaus Brew Labs we were put in touch with her. We couldn’t have been more blessed and thankful that they did. Bre was an absolute joy to work with and helped make our wedding day run smoothly (it was perfect!). She went above and beyond to make sure our wedding planning experience and wedding day were fun and stress-free. My partner and I met with Bre more than 6 months before our wedding at a neat coffee shop. From that moment, we knew we were in good hands. She provided great recommendations for vendors (we ended up using a few of them) and knew the logistics of how to plan a fun wedding at Bauhaus. We also met with her about a month before the wedding at the venue to work out the day’s schedule and logistics. She provided great recommendations and even helped convinced my husband and I to consider doing a sparkler tunnel send off, which ended up being one of my favorite moments of the wedding day. As someone who likes to worry about all the little details, I was so happy and relieved to have Bre help me make sure everything regarding the wedding day was covered so I didn’t have to think about it at all on the wedding day. She was flexible as we adjusted the day’s schedule multiple times, some relatively last minute. She called the week of the wedding to run through the day’s schedule and make sure everything was set and ready, and also contacted the vendors to make sure they were aware of what was needed from them. The day of the wedding, she managed to multitask with ease. She was extremely hardworking: helping with set-up/decor, assisting with last minute staging, making sure all the snacks were full, managing all the vendors, answering any questions from guests and vendors, and checking in with my partner and me regarding the flow of the day and that we stayed somewhat on schedule. She did all of this with a huge genuine smile on her face, and a sense of calmness that helped set the tone for the day. All of the guests and vendors had nothing but positive things to say about Bre as well. Would highly recommend for those looking for a day-of coordinator or event planner.

Hiring Bre was the best thing I did for my wedding. We started working with her about 2 months out and she was always on top of all the details. She communicated with us and our vendors flawlessly. On the day of, she took care of everything so my new husband and I could enjoy the day. She even took great care of our parents, making sure they had everything they needed and we're having a great evening. She is always calm, cool, and collected. With laughter and a smile, Bre is Fun!! She's the best!!

Bre was amazing! She helped us coordinate our wedding and reception with 200+ guests in Minnesota while we have been living in Washington. Bre is great to work with and helped us with so many different things!!! We loved working with her and multiple vendors made a point of sharing with me that she is a great planner to work with!!!

Bre is an expert! Her passion and excitement for making our day special was evident in her every move. She was easily the BEST investment Mark & I made for our wedding day, everything was on point–we didn't have to worry about a thing. We started working with Bre a couple months before the wedding and in the weeks leading up she was indispensable. Our rehearsal was a breeze, and the day of was even better. She worked easily with all of the vendors and my family–EVERYONE thought Bre was the best, and we couldn't agree more.
