Owner
I am a married, mother of two with a an extremely crafty side! I admit that I am a bit of a nerd that likes to finish my day with a book and a glass of wine if my kids allow it.
Early in my career, I fell in love with events and weddings were always my favorite. The complexity of coordinating a day so special, is extremely enjoyable for me. I think about potential issues as a puzzle, trying to find the best way to make your vision come to life without any major hiccups.
If you are the kind of person that has lots of ideas but has no idea how to bring them together, I am you woman.

o start, Lindsey met with me to better understand what I needed support on to be able to provide a timeline and work with me to find a balance between my budget and needs for the wedding weekend. Leading up to the wedding, Lindsey and Michelle (her team member that supported my ceremony and reception) met with me multiple times to ensure the details were all coordinated and we were on the same page. Michelle did a great job weekend of in setting decor up to meet my vision, tearing things down and coordinating with all our vendors. She made it so easy for me to enjoy the weekend events and trust that she had everything taken care of!

d the entire space so beautifully and coordinated every single detail, which allowed me to truly relax and just enjoy my special day.
Because of her, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She handled everything seamlessly and made sure the day ran perfectly, all while checking in to ensure I was having the best time possible. Her organization, creativity, and calm presence made all the difference.
She did a phenomenal job with everything, and I genuinely couldn’t have done it without her. Lindsey was our main point person and took care of absolutely everything. I would highly recommend hiring her to anyone looking for someone who will make their event stress-free, stunning, and unforgettable.

I am so glad we hired Lindsay to help with our daughter's wedding. She and her staff took care of coordinating with each vendor, coordinating with the venue, decorating, and decor ...
clean up afterwards. She brought everything from candles to furniture! She did an amazing job and the venue was beautiful when she was finished. She also did a beautiful sweetheart table with curtains and flowers behind them and brought in a small sofa and backdrop for the Photo Booth. She was extremely easy to work with and always responded right away if I had questions or just wanted to add something else to the decor.

I truly don’t have enough words to express how grateful we are for Lindsey and all that she did to make our wedding day absolutely perfect. From start to finish, she made sure ever...
y T was crossed and every I was dotted — nothing was overlooked. Every single detail flowed seamlessly because of her hard work and heart.
Walking into our venue for the first time quite literally brought me to tears. The way Lindsey decorated and brought our vision to life was beyond anything I could’ve ever imagined — it felt like stepping into a dream. Every table, every floral accent, every cozy, romantic touch was pure magic.
Lindsey wasn’t just a coordinator — she was our calm, our creative eye, and our behind-the-scenes hero. She made sure we could be fully present on our big day without a single worry. We will absolutely be using her for any future events we plan, and recommending Hollyhock Designs to everyone we know.
Thank you, Lindsey, for making our wedding day everything we hoped for and more. 💛

She helped us figure out so many things. My wife and I had no idea how busy and frustrated we would be without Lindsey helping us. The wedding went exceptionally well, Lindsey helped us put all the ideas we had together. Overall, Lindsey is amazing.

g day that I could not have predicted, even though we had a small backyard wedding. I called in a panic about my cake when it was decorated totally different than expectation and I swear she must have come running! Lol. She completely redid the cake for me right then and there. Also, her arsenal of random items you never know you’ll need was impressive. It was like she had a solution for every problem!
She went above and beyond by creating a surprise gift for me as well and I was just taken aback by her creativity and thoughtfulness. Absolutely loved her!

Lindsay is instrumental in the wedding planning process and so dedicated to your event, down to finite details and elements, including vendor management and design! She was worth...
every penny and more to me and my fiancé.
She and I aligned and tag-teamed on everything from beginning to end of the planning process, all the way through the wedding day, then she helped ensure our vendors were square, the event was set up and flowed appropriately, and even made sure our next day brunch was prepped for us at our venue. My bridesmaids kept telling me how attune she was to me (she was!).
Lindsay has wedding knowledge like no one else and I highly recommend her for your special day!

Lindsey absolutely saved us for our wedding! We didn’t think we needed a coordinator and then decided to hire her about 2 months out and it was the best decision we could have made...
. She helped so much before the wedding to get us organized, coordinate with other vendors and the venue, and took care of things we didn’t even know to plan for! She helped create a detailed timeline and made sure everyone was on the same page so it went so smoothly on our wedding day. It was such a weight off our shoulders to know she was handling everything, and to not worry about who was grabbing our stuff from the bridal suite or if the shuttle was actually shuttling people. She even drove us to our photo locations in between the ceremony and reception because we hadn’t even thought about how we’d get there! Overall, our day was 1000x smoother thanks to her and the weeks ahead of the wedding were way less stressful because she knew what needed to be done and took care of it. She’s also just a sweet, fun person who was great to be around and work with! If you’re wondering whether you really need a coordinator or are thinking you could probably just handle it yourself… HIRE LINDSEY!!

ck to respond. She's full of helpful suggestions and ideas, from timeline development to how to DIY a bar setup. She helped me order wholesale flowers for my DIY centerpieces, and they turned out beautifully! She even took on the role of SUPERWOMAN and fixed my bridal bouquet when our florist used the wrong color of roses in my bouquet. She literally took it apart and rebuilt it the day of the wedding, and nobody could tell anything had ever been wrong. She saved the day, and then she proceeded to decorate an arch BY HERSELF, and it all turned out beautifully. Throughout the day, she flawlessly directed all of our vendors. She made sure we had food and drink waiting at our couple's table after photos. She checked in with us regularly to see if we needed anything. She helped bustle my dress. She just wore SO MANY different hats, and she did them all so well. I'm thoroughly impressed. She went above and beyond for us, and I will forever be grateful. I highly recommend you hire her. You won't find a more caring or talented coordinator.

I can't say enough good things about hiring Lindsey as my day of coordinator - by far the BEST decision I made all wedding. Initially, we needed her help with set up (our venue was...
totally DIY for décor and table seating) which she was happy to do, but she also did SO much more. A few consults on Zoom, walking through our venue with us, ordering our greenery, thinking through seating planning, talking through the day of plan to make sure things went smoothly. All of her wedding experience and advice throughout was so valuable!
Then day of she really kept things on track, making sure relatives were where they needed to go, dinner was on time, vendor questions were addressed, etc. She even helped bustle my dress so my mom could enjoy more time with friends, it was so thoughtful. And she thought of many things I didn't: clear umbrellas, tissues, a small tent, and so much more.
Lindsey is one of the most organized people I've ever met and was by far the easiest person I worked with compared to other vendors - she just made sure things ran so smoothly, like answering emails or scheduling meetings quickly without making you wait. But it was also incredible working with her because she is so kind and funny and thoughtful. It really felt like planning the day with a good friend, and her humor helped us get through occasional stressful moments as well. Do not think twice about hiring Lindsey, I would recommend her to anyone for any event.

She did research on vendors and found us a rotary phone audio guest book, helped me find a wonderful florist, and made sure the entire event ran smoothly!

If you are looking for a coordinator please consider using Hollyhock Design, she will go above and beyond for you!

Lindsey was amazing and looking back I couldn't imagine getting through the wedding without her. There were SEVERAL things that came up on the day of (and leading up to) my wedding...
that I was so glad to have her for. She understood my vision and executed it flawlessly, dealt with ALL of my vendors, and managed a few fires for me on the spot - which allowed me to focus on enjoying my day even more. She's super flexible and I honestly can't recommend her enough. If you're unsure: 1. Don't be, 2. Just meet with her, she will put you immediately at ease. 11/10.
