About this vendor
*Now also offering floral!* See first three photos for floral discounts!
I plan fun weddings! My goal as your planner is to get to know you holistically: how do you want your wedding day to look and feel? What causes you stress? What does a super-fun party look like to you? I’m a good listener and peacekeeper. I love strategizing interesting family dynamics and being a mini therapist as you set the stage for starting your own family unit. I will have the most fun brainstorming how to incorporate your nerdy obsessions, your pets, your friends and family, and thinking of ways to make your wedding feel so much like you it couldn’t be anyone else’s day.
If we're working together on the look and feel of your wedding, my main goal is to help you figure out how to take your visual inspirations (is it your favorite TV show? your favorite vacation destination? a book you were given when you were little?), and the photos from your pinterest board to create a logistical plan to execute your vision within your budget. I'm big on pricing transparency, so basic details and package prices below, but check out my website for full info.

Maddie was so good to us! Throughout the planning process she eased our anxieties and gave us advice like a close friend. The day of the wedding was an exciting blur, but I do reme...
mber seeing Maddie at every corner ensuring everything was going to plan! Please pick her!
Maddie was incredible! Very professional, warm, and made the entire experience seamless. She had great vendor recommendations from her industry experience and had a keen sense of t...
he vibe we wanted at our wedding, which turned out better than we could’ve imagined.
I am so incredibly happy that I chose to work with Sonnet Weddings for month-of coordination for our ceremony and reception in NWA. My husband and I are originally from AR, but liv...
e out of state and decided to get married in our hometown. Since we only had a limited time in NWA before the wedding, Maddie's support was absolutely crucial to our day going smoothly. Her coordination of vendors was impeccable and I was so thankful to not have to worry about all those tiny details that I struggled to even think of.
A few things that really stood out to me about working with Maddie/Sonnet:
- Right off the bat, I noticed that the contact form used inclusive language like, "You and Your Partner's Name" rather than Bride and Groom, etc which seems hard to come by in the wedding industry. Though I consider myself an ally, many people that I love are part of the LGBTQIA+ community and it meant a lot to know that any of my friends and loved ones would truly be included here.
- Maddie had incredible vendor recommendations and has clearly built a lot of trust and great relationships with wedding vendors in the area. Maddie is also really mindful of supporting businesses owned by folks from various marginalized communities which I really appreciate.
- Maddie was extremely supportive of my minimalistic vision/design and never pressured me to do more than what I was comfortable with—for example, when I mentioned that I wanted to wear my glasses for the wedding and not wear any makeup and expressed that I was afraid people would pressure me into doing something different, she was extremely encouraging and helped me make the decision that felt right for me and I couldn't be happier that I wore my glasses and little more than tinted lip balm on my wedding day and felt like the best version of myself :)
- Covid, covid, covid: Due to covid, we ended up having to significantly scale down our guest list and make changes to plans and Maddie was so incredibly helpful in making sure our wedding was as safe as it could possibly be, while still being an incredibly special day. I really appreciate how seriously Maddie took the covid precautions and she even sent me frequent updates on covid case counts in the area and state mandates in the weeks leading up to the wedding.
There's really so much more that I could say to support my recommendation for Sonnet Weddings/Maddie, but no one's trying to read a novel, so I'll stop here! If I were to do it all over again, I wouldn't just go with month-of coordination, I'd do full planning. Trust me, you need Sonnet Weddings to be a part of your wedding, you will not regret it!
I loved working with Maddie for my October wedding. She was essential to helping me describe and implement my dream wedding, and she’s a joy to interact with. Even though I had a b...
asic idea of what I wanted for our big day, I had no idea how to execute it or communicate it to others. Maddie sat down with me and asked me tons of great questions to tease out my vision, and she made the most beautiful and detailed design document that was my saving grace throughout the planning process. It kept my vision focused on the things that were most important to me and helped me communicate that to my vendors.
Maddie is so knowledgeable, and she was a voice of reason through the planning process and wedding weekend. She constantly encouraged me, and I knew I could trust her with the tasks she took on. She even gave birth to her first baby weeks before my wedding so she worked diligently to make sure everything possible contingency was covered.
No matter what your style is, your wedding will be better if Sonnet is a part of it!
I couldn’t ask for a better wedding coordinator than Melissa at Sonnet Weddings. She made my day an absolute breeze and I didn’t have to worry about anything. Besides my photograph...
er she was the best investment I made for my wedding.
Maddie was irreplaceable in planning and executing our wedding! When we decided to have our ceremony and reception in NW Arkansas, a destination from Chicago, we weren't sure where...
to begin. We had a vision and vibe that we wanted to create but didn't know what that looked like until we were introduced to Maddie's creativity and experience in the industry. She walked us through the whole process, and with each call and visit, she adjusted and executed the details to make our wedding exactly what we wanted! Her boho, whimsical, eclectic style added character to the modern look that we also wanted to incorporate. She was so easy to work, so sweet, so calm, and she made us feel like a priority always. We were relaxed through out the whole year of planning, up until it was all over. Our wedding turned out flawless! I highly recommend her to anyone and wish we could do it all over again :)
Maddie is a rockstar, and we're so glad we found her to assist with our wedding. From the minute details to the big picture, Maddie offers a very balanced, practical perspective o...
n planning and decision making--which is super helpful during wedding prep-land! Almost immediately after meeting, we felt connected to Maddie and that she was in sync with our goals and perspective. She's a genuine, thoughtful person, and great to work with. Regardless of where you are or what you know, Maddie is talented at meeting you exactly where you are and making your day great.

n and easy!
My wedding was planned to be an outside ceremony. On the day of, we had a terrible thunderstorm- Maddie put all of my fears and worries aside and moved our ceremony of almost 300 people inside without a hiccup. I would recommend Maddie/Sonnet Weddings without hesitation!!!
Maddie- I'm so thankful for you and all you did!

r dreams for our wedding a reality! Start to finish communication was always quick, helpful and enjoyable! She really took in all that we loved, listened to our priorities and made it all come to life! The day of our wedding went so smoothly, was completely fun , well coordinated and laid back (zero stress!!)! Everyone enjoyed working with her and we can't thank her enough for everything!
I cannot say enough positive things about working with Maddie! She is one of the most professional people I have ever worked with. Maddie took on the challenge of helping the sor...
ority that I am the recruitment advisor for and facilitating decor throughout the week and the very large task of setting up and executing Bid Day. She was always on-time, early in fact, and ready to work. She never lost her temper even when things got stressful. Maddie always had a plan and a backup to that plan just in case. We loved working with her so much that she is coming back on board this year for recruitment week and Bid Day. I can honestly say without her help, we would have been lost this year. Maddie brought a positive attitude, creative ideas, and vendor contacts that helped make our recruitment week and Bid Day amazing. I would 100% recommend Maddie for any wedding ceremony, reception, or event you need help with planning and/or executing. You will not regret hiring her! Thank you again, Maddie!
Oh my goodness. Where to begin?
After a crazy experience with an old wedding planner, I reached out to Maddie on a Friday two months before our wedding, she met with us that Sunday...
, and we hired her on the spot. Maddie was a game changer. She made wedding planning joyful & easy, a celebration of our marriage. Communication was phenomenal, trust and transparency were natural, and fun was constant. She was creative and made our vision a reality, even when I had no idea how to communicate what I was thinking. She offered suggestions and helped us stay on track. She took care of hard conversations and stressful moments, whether with vendors or our own family members. Maddie allowed me & my family to just enjoy the day before and day of. She's the coolest and our wedding was the best day ever because of her!!
Hiring Maddie was the best choice we made for our wedding. Without her I'm not sure it would have even happened. Not only did she make both the ceremony and reception site look awe...
some, but she helped coordinate all of the vendors to make it happen. Having her take care of these things made the day go by much more smooth and stress-free!
Maddie helped us plan and was there to serve as our day of coordinator for our wedding. We had a lot of DIY aspects to our wedding and she was there to coordinate all of the vendor...
s, assisted with setting up the decor and made sure everything ran smoothly. She was able to organize my crazy family and keep everything on schedule, so my husband and I could enjoy the celebration! Highly recommended - it really helps to have someone worry about the small things so you can enjoy your day!
