Meagan Hilss Events

e like a friend who happened to know absolutely everything about our wedding than simply our planner. From the beginning, Meagan gave us structure without ever making the planning process feel rigid or overwhelming. She created our planning checklist, kept us on track with what needed to be done and when, helped us navigate our budget, reviewed our venue contract, and was always there when we had a question or needed an opinion. She helped us take all of the ideas floating around in our heads and actually turn them into a cohesive wedding. She was especially incredible with design. Meagan helped us refine our overall vision, colors, florals, linens, rentals, table settings, floor plans, draping, bars, ceremony setup, reception layout and all of the tiny details in between. She coordinated our venue walkthrough and full mock-up with our florist and rental vendors so we could actually see everything come together before the wedding. She also helped us find vendors that fit both our style and budget—including our florist—and coordinated meetings, proposals and logistics throughout the process. But where Meagan truly went above and beyond was advocating for us. There were so many little logistical challenges toward the end of planning that we would have had no idea how to navigate ourselves. She went back and forth with our venue about everything from chairs, bars and linens to AV, draping, vendor parking, load-in times and service details. At one point, when having the same crossback chairs throughout the day became unexpectedly complicated, she went to bat for us and worked with the venue to find a solution. There were countless moments like that where she cared about the details because she knew that *we* cared about them. She also coordinated every vendor leading up to the wedding, created an incredibly detailed execution plan with timelines, diagrams, contact information and setup instructions, reviewed our BEO line by line, managed final guest and meal information, coordinated vendor arrivals and setup, and made sure everyone knew exactly where they needed to be and when. She even helped coordinate a surprise magician for Jordan during cocktail hour and somehow kept the whole thing under wraps! And then there was the actual wedding day. I cannot overstate how valuable it was to be able to completely let go. I am normally someone who wants to know what is happening at all times, and somehow on our wedding day I genuinely did not worry about a thing. I knew Meagan had it. She and her team made sure that more than a year of planning actually came to life exactly the way we imagined it, while Jordan and I got to be present with each other, our families and our friends. By the end, I was genuinely sad that our planning emails and meetings were over—which probably says everything. We would hire Meagan again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you are looking for someone who will care about your wedding like it is her own, advocate for you, obsess over the details and then make sure you actually get to enjoy the day you spent so long planning, hire Meagan. Five stars does not feel like enough.

perfect balance of professionalism, expertise, and calm to what can often be an overwhelming process. She kept us impeccably organized every step of the way, ensuring no detail was overlooked. When our wedding day at Estancia finally arrived, we were able to completely relax and soak in every moment because Meagan handled everything flawlessly behind the scenes. If you want a seamless, stress-free planning experience and a perfectly executed wedding day, we cannot recommend her highly enough!

entire planning process feel so smooth. Meagan has great taste and an eye for design, she helped me bring my Pinterest vision to life in an even better way than I could have ever imagined!  We felt guided every step of the way, always taking the time to explain options and help us make the best decisions for our vision. What really stood out was her positive attitude throughout the entire process and she was always willing to go the extra mile to make sure we were happy with our choices.  Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but she turned it into something we truly enjoyed. I’m forever grateful for everything she did. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a planner who is not only professional and skilled but also a joy to work with. 

lly started with just 'spring'!). Meagan patiently guided us through the entire process, turned our vague ideas into a stunning reality, and executed the day flawlessly. My family kept commenting how relaxed I was on our wedding day, and I know it was because I could trust Meagan to handle everything. We are so thankful to have found her!
