A special shoutout to Lindsey as well! She was absolutely wonderful with our flower girl and ring bearer, keeping them comfortable and ready for their big moment. It made such a difference having someone so patient and kind helping with the little ones.

On the day of the wedding, she was a calm, confident presence who effortlessly managed everything behind the scenes. Thanks to her, we were able to relax and focus on celebrating with our family and friends. Her ability to anticipate needs and handle every detail seamlessly made all the difference. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better partner!

We cannot say enough good things about Rustic Elegance! Kellie and her assistant Kristin truly made our day go as perfect as possible. I’m not sure how our big day would have gone ...
without having all of their support and guidance. They took care of everything for us so we could just enjoy every moment of our day without having to worry about anything. Kellie is truly so organized and thinks of every detail possible. Prior to the big day, we had several meetings with Kellie which made us feel less stressed and more prepared for our wedding. Having access to aisle planner throughout the planning process was extremely helpful. We rented many decor items through RE, they have such a great selection to choose from. We highly recommend choosing Rustic Elegance for day of coordination!

fessional, handling every little detail with care. Their guidance and support made a huge difference, especially with all the small things that can easily become overwhelming.

le planning that I would never have thought of on my own! Every phone call was enthusiastic and filled with laughs. It was her and my day of lead Danielle and her assistant Randella that made my wedding day what it was. They ensured that my day of was stress free and perfect. They did such an amazing job and multiple guest told me that they were blown away of all the work they put in behind the scenes day of! Many guest said it was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been too, and that would not have been possible without the Rustic Elegance team! I could not recommend them enough to help you have the wedding day of your dreams (:
Kellie and Amy were an absolute pleasure to work with! They were an invaluable resource during our planning process, and they handled everything on the wedding day, so both myself ...
and Sara could have a stress-free, fun filled day! We ended up planning the entire wedding in 100 days, so having Kellie was basically a necessity to make sure we thought of all the little details we would have otherwise missed. Since the wedding, we have only received outstanding compliments on how well everything was put together, and I know both Kellie and Amy played a huge role in creating the atmosphere we were looking for. While we personally aren’t planning on throwing another wedding, I would definitely recommend all my family and friends utilize their services in the future!
Honestly, we felt completely supported and in great hands throughout the entire process. Working with RE was an outstanding experience. Their thorough and thoughtful approach helpe...
d build our confidence early on, especially as they walked us through their tools and systems designed to eliminate surprises on the big day.
When the day arrived, their message was clear: relax and let them handle everything seamlessly—and they truly delivered. Because of the preparation sessions, we felt calm and ready, knowing they had every detail covered.
To anyone considering this investment: it’s a no-brainer. The day was significantly easier and far less stressful because of their involvement. What stood out most was how well-connected they were with all our other vendors. They took the time to fully understand each vendor’s role and essentially quarterbacked the day, ensuring everyone worked together smoothly.
We’re incredibly grateful for the experience. Thank you again!

I love most and not feel an ounce of worry or confusion when it came to how the day was going to unfold. That’s because Marissa (and Kristen) handled every moment with poise, incredible calm, and such kind and caring energy! When situations arose that required my input, Marissa came to me with solutions ready to go, so I didn't have to stress or be taken away from the moment. That is true professionalism. Thank you, Rustic Elegance, for your wonderful work and for making our wedding day a day that I could be truly present for and fully enjoy.

e best decisions we made for our wedding. The planning meetings were so helpful to guide us through the process of planning a wedding. Kellie has a wonderful breadth of knowledge in the wedding industry that helped us make informed decisions along the way. Her sweet nature and sense of calm were a blessing to us throughout the whole planning process!
Our wedding day was so perfect to us and was stress-free, very much due to Kellie’s guidance while planning, and both her and Kristin’s hard work the day of. We were able to fully relax and enjoy our special day, knowing that everything was taken care of! We would highly recommend Kellie and Rustic Elegance to anyone planning a wedding!

It's so nice to have them there to welcome and coordinate with all the vendors as well. They also took videos of the little things throughout the day which was so special to have the morning after. Could not recommend Kellie and her team more!

tion to all the little details that mattered to us & had helpful advice we otherwise wouldn’t have thought of. I strongly recommend anyone reaching out to her to help coordinate your day if you want your expectations exceeded!! We’re so grateful for her & her team!
Kellie and her team are AMAZING! I am not over-exaggerating when I say that hiring Kellie and Rustic Elegance was the BEST decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding....
Kellie is the ultimate hype-woman and will help think of the details and questions that otherwise would have been forgotten or looked over. She helps guide the wedding planning process from start to finish and was so helpful when we were feeling lost about certain vendors/decisions along the way.
We also added on the clean up package, which was SO worth it. Both my husband and I have been in weddings where the expectation is that the family members stay and clean everything up at the end of the night. Needless to say, our families were thrilled to be free of this obligation and Kellie did a phenomenal job making sure all our decorations got packed up and even loaded our trailer for us, so we could dance the night away and not worry about a thing.
A family friend or relative CANNOT replace the professionalism, attention to detail, and wealth of knowledge that Kellie has. I would recommend Kellie and Rustic Elegance to every bride I know, she really is that good!
We loved working with Rustic Elegance! Kellie and her team think of all the little details that go into the day and it made the planning process so much easier. There were a few li...
ttle mishaps on our day and RE went above and beyond to try and course correct. We needed double stick tape for our guest book, and they left the venue just before the ceremony to go get. Then, our caterers forgot to bring vegan meals and they worked with the catering team to find a plan B. They remembered things about our day that I completely forgot, like bringing glow sticks to the dance floor, and those small details made a big difference in the feel for our day. I can not recommend them enough. Thank you for helping to make our day so special!
Kellie from Rustic Elegance is so friendly and amazing throughout the planning process and on the big day. The coordination and timeline were spot on and she was very attentive to ...
our requests on our big day. 10/10 recommend. Thanks Kellie!
Absolutely Outstanding!
My husband and I got married in August and Rustic Elegance’s services were invaluable to our wedding day. Not only do they set you up with great planning r...
esources, but also provide amazing hands on service on the wedding day. The layout Kellie provided us with for planning helped me to stay organized, with a checklist month by month, Ceremony/Reception Day-Of Details, FAQ, Guest List Management, and Trusted Vendor lists (sometimes even with a discount for certain vendors) were more than I could have hoped for. But what I loved the most about Kellie’s help was the seamless and stress free wedding day. I am definitely a detail person and a planner, so the vision of my wedding day was precise, down to the measure of music that I needed to walk down the aisle to. But Kellie worked with me over multiple meetings and planning sessions to make sure all of my needs were met. I can happily say that I didn’t look at the time once on my wedding day. Kellie took care of coordinating with all of the vendors and kept everyone on schedule. She even made sure that my husband and I got some appetizers! I was so excited to have some but by the time we finished talking with people during social hour, they were gone. But Kelly had already set some aside for us! So thoughtful, and so experienced, everything that a bride needs on her wedding day. And if you are looking to take the stress out of the decorating on the wedding day, then I would definitely recommend Kellie for both set up and her take-down and clean up package. They even have items that you can rent from them that they will transport for you! It took stress off of me and my family so that we could fully enjoy the day together. She also ended up having some time to take little candid photos throughout the wedding day that she shared with me at the end. It’s so hard having to wait for the professional pictures so having a sneak peek was just the perfect touch to a perfect day! Thank you so much Rustic Elegance. When my friends get married I’m recommending you!

Kellie and her team executed every detail up until the wedding, leaving me with the confidence of knowing that it was going to go amazing no matter what turn could’ve been taken! If you are getting married in a backyard in Minnesota, this is the best decision you could ever make!

taking care of us at the wedding.
They were always very responsive to any questions we had and adaptable when we had to change appointment times. They use a good system to help track all the details and ensure nothing is missed.
Where they really shine was on the day of the event. First to arrive and last to leave. Extremely organized, positive demeanor and proactive in anticipating and addressing every need both for us as a couple, for our guests, and keeping everything on schedule by coordinating our guests while we took care of first look photos. They juggled all vendors, and left us worry free.
We look fondly back at our special day, and both my partner and I say we wouldn’t wish it to be any different. I assure you, Kellie and Mandy played no small part in making that happen! I’ve already recommended them to a friend, and as someone who isn’t keen on writing reviews, I’m happy to recommend them to you also!
I have NO WORDS - Kellie and her assistant were OUTSTANDING! Kellie met with us multiple times during the planning process and was readily available by email whenever we had questi...
ons come up. Our wedding day was so stress free - all we had to worry about was eating, getting ready and spending time with our people. The placement of many decor items I left up to the discretion of Kellie and it all turned out so much better than anything I could've imagined! She took so many behind the scenes pictures for us to have while we wait for our photographer to send their product. I am SO, SO, SO, glad that we had Kellie on our team!! Without a doubt, go with RE!!!

hat our special day would be under control thanks to the experience and professionalism of Kellie and RE. Kellie is truly a godsend and I cannot fathom how RE is able to accomplish all they do not only on wedding day, but also leading up to the day. In meetings leading up to the wedding, every detail is discussed more than once to ensure the day of went smoothly. Quite honestly, we wouldn’t have even known Kellie and her assist Kierra were there on wedding day as they work behind the scenes with vendors/etc to ensure the couple’s day is as stress free as possible. We were truly grateful for Kellie and the service we received throughout the best few months of our lives. We owe it all to you for making our day extra special and stress-free! :)

Our wedding day went better than I could have ever imagined and Kellie and Kierra made sure my husband and I could just enjoy the day - they took care of the rest! Any changes we made leading up to the day, they were ready to roll with. They are so talented and so on top of every detail, I truly don’t know what we would have done without them. We got endless compliments on how well the day went from our family and friends. We didn’t hire a videographer for our wedding, but Kellie was able to capture some great “behind-the-scenes” videos for me which was totally unexpected and special. You can tell they do anything they can to make sure the couple doesn’t have to lift a finger and the guests have a great time!
Thank you for making our day PERFECT!!! Love, the Pavlaks

list goes on. It poured rain right before my ceremony but she didn’t bat an eye and got me down the aisle a half hour later and all our guests seated on dry chairs. I could relax and enjoy the wedding because I knew she was managing everything behind the scenes according to the plan we had built together. It really brings tears of gratitude to my eyes to think of how much this meant to me! Hire Kellie and never look back!!!

g together she displayed an unmatched level of professionalism and her excellent communication put our minds at ease.
Their organizational skills are nothing short of impressive, ensuring that every aspect of the day was flawlessly executed. Kellie took the time to understand our vision and preferences and her expertise and creativity shone through in every aspect of our wedding day.
Throughout the entire planning process and the big day itself, my now husband and I felt confident that we were in the hands of a seasoned professional who genuinely cared about making our wedding day unforgettable. We cannot thank the Rustic Elegance team enough for their hard work, dedication, and the invaluable role they played in making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and so much more.
If you are looking for a wedding day coordinator who goes above and beyond to make your special day extraordinary, look no further. Rustic Elegance truly exceeded our expectations, and we would recommend their services to anyone without hesitation. Thank you again for making our wedding day a beautiful and seamless experience!

So where do I start? Kellie and her helper, Cassi from Rustic Elegance make the day truly something to remember! Kellie was so wonderful to work with from the first video meeting...
through the last few minutes of my daughter’s wedding reception. She had everything under control throughout the entire night. Kellie had the timing down to when everything had to happen and made sure all vendors used followed it to a tee. She always had a smile on her face and was always there if you ever needed an answer to anything. It took the worry out of everything for you so you could concentrate on enjoying the event. She even had the cars packed up at the end of the night, so all you had to do was drive home. I can’t praise Kellie and Cassi enough for what the two of them accomplished that day. I will not be forgetting them whenever I think back to my daughter’s wedding reception! Thank you so much Kellie and Cassi!
I hired Kellie (Rustic Elegance) about a month before our wedding. Right away she was communicative, friendly, and overall excited to work with us. We felt like she was such a stro...
ng, positive presence at our wedding, too!
We had our ceremony at a Catholic church- Kellie helped us get in order and communicate with the church coordinator so we didn't have to. She was so thoughtful had was extremely on top of everything.
Not only did she communicate throughout the entire day with all our vendors, but her and her team completely helped set up our whole venue's decorations in the morning so our moms didn't have to stress. It was such a relief! We were able to get our hair and makeup done all together and have a nice/chill morning. We are so blessed to have had Rustic Elegance with us during our day!!
Kellie and Rachel made our whole day possible. She answered our seemingly endless amount of questions during the planning process while also soothing any nerves. On our wedding day...
, Kellie was instrumental in keeping everything going smoothly. She communicated with all vendors and kept us updated on anything that came up during the day. We had some crazy weather, and she came up with a plan that kept the day on track while also keeping what we wanted for our day in mind. Due to the rain we were able to flip around our order of events to do dinner, dances, and toasts before having a sunset ceremony outside. I truly believe that Kellie and Rachel were the best people to be with us during this stressful situation. They made the experience fun, positive, and helped us create a whole new vision for our day. We would have been lost without both of them, and we will forever be grateful for all of their hard work. Our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect as it was without both of them!
I’m a vendor who has worked with Kellie and her team a few times and let me tell you, they are top notch. Many weddings without airtight coordination can lead to the DJ and other v...
endors coming into an event not 100% knowing what to expect. Whenever I see Rustic Elegance is a part of the event, I get excited because I know they’re organized but not in a stressful way. They never give off the don’t talk to me vibe. Instead they’re fun, approachable, and extremely professional. Look forward to hopefully many more weddings with Kellie and Rustic Elegance!! 100/10

The team was able to work with our other vendors so that the day went so incredibly smooth. Kellie also assisted us in the planning phase of our wedding - She was a great resource and helped us get super organized so that are day was everything that we wanted. I highly recommend Rustic Elegance for any or all of your wedding planning needs. As a bride, having RE made my day stress-free and gave me so much peace of mind knowing that they were there for us!
Kellie helped plan our day and made everything so organized. She has great ideas and is very responsive. I am so thankful for the day of coordinators with rustic elegance who made ...
