St. Louis Wedding Consultants

Brandy is the BEST! Do yourself a favor and work with her for a stress-free & flawless wedding planning process. She knows everything about venues, vendors, & tips for navigating the St. Louis Wedding industry. Brandy is professional, fantastic with communication, and extremely organized. She listened to our vision and made it come to life. We were able to float through our wedding day effortlessly & let her and her team (thanks, Chelsey!) take care of everything. If there were any hiccups, we never noticed and our guests said it was the best wedding ever!

Brandy is extraordinary. Because of covid-19, the wedding date was moved from early May until September. Then, because a vendor double booked, we had to move the date again. Brandy guided us through all of this rescheduling, contacting vendors, and following up immediately. She is a great resource person for vendors, so rely upon her. She helped us work with our floral designed, photographer, cater, and much more. She is a great listener and does not impose her ideas of you. She is a very important reason why everything went perfectly. Brandy also helps keep the atmosphere relaxed.

Brandy from St. Louis Wedding Consultants was FANTASTIC. My mom and I met with her early on and felt confident in her poise and calm demeanor. We signed a contract with her that day, confident that she would execute a perfect wedding! Throughout the planning process, Brandy kept us on track. She would send emails with friendly reminders to keep us on task and organized our contracts with all third party vendors. Brandy was always available, whether it be via email, text, or phone call to provide feedback with ideas or to answer any questions. On our wedding day, Brandy executed every aspect of our wedding timeline with thoughtfulness and grace. She managed our wedding party, our transportation, food and beverage service and remained calm, cool, and always collected throughout the night. St. Louis Wedding Consultants is a fantastic company that is able to transform a bride's vision into a reality.

Brandy was extremely thorough, organized and helpful throughout our wedding planning process and in particular on our wedding day!! Brandy calmly executed every detail of our vision and ensured our wedding flowed smoothly! We had a lot of rain on our wedding day and Brandy and her assistant helped keep me dry and even cleaned and steamed my dress before the reception! She truly went above and beyond! So happy we had the opportunity to work with St. Louis Wedding Consultants and would highly recommend to every bride!!

We worked with Brandy at St. Louis Wedding Consultants for the last year. We found Brandy's assistance during that time invaluable. We had an idea of the vision for the wedding, Brandy kept us on track, provided advice and counsel for many details to ensure the vision came to life. She assisted in guiding us to build a team of vendors we greatly enjoyed and that all knew each other and worked collaboratively as a team delivering our vision. We turned every detail over to her the week of the wedding allowing me as the mom, my daughter and rest of family to be able to enjoy the time and have fun without worry. Her calm demeanor and strong organizational skills and attention to detail was much appreciated and greatly valued.

Brandy was amazing in finalizing all details for the band for a June wedding we worked on together. As professionals in the wedding industry, it is so nice to be able to connect and work with someone so helpful, organized, and friendly! I look forward to working with her again in the future!

Brandy is on top of her game! We used Brandy for her month-of/day of services and she was fantastic to have. She kept all of us on schedule and worked individually with the vendors to ensure seamless execution of our wedding. If problems occurred, I didn’t know about them. Brandy’s experience working with vendors in the area was also super helpful. She gave us lots of suggestions and options for the various ideas we had and also gave her opinion on what to expect from which vendors. We were grateful to have her and would definitely recommend her service.

Brandy at St. Louis Wedding Consultants was absolutely incredible - we highly recommend her!! We planned a multicultural wedding in six months from out of town with events during the whole weekend. Brandy was instrumental in providing us with vendor recommendations, keeping our timeline on track and managing all the details over the weekend – staying calm and collected throughout. Our wedding was flawless and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Thank you Brandy!!!

Brandy Sheehan was great to work with. At the start of the planning process, she provided a very helpful outline of the wedding planning process and details to get our planning off to a good start. Once we had a general idea of what we wanted, Brandy worked with us to refine the details and timeline of our wedding. Brandy knows the ins and out of a great wedding and provided constructive guidance and suggestions to make the vision of our wedding day become a reality. Brandy was quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had via email or in person. As the wedding day approached, Brandy helped us set up our venue and coordinate the rehearsal. Our wedding day was stress free- Brandy seamlessly directed our wedding party throughout the day and ensured that everything ran smoothly. Brandy was professional and friendly throughout the entire process. We recommend using St. Louis Wedding Consultants LLC for your special day!

Brandy & her team were fantastic! Easy to work with, very organized and extremely professional. Would recommend Brandy to all my friends!

Brandy was very easy to work with, and on top of every little detail! I made the mistake of planning my wedding during my busy season at work, but Brandy and my mom took so many stressors off of my plate and helped put together a beautiful wedding!! Thank you so much, Brandy!!

Having Brandy's help with our wedding was truly amazing! We loved how detail oriented and focused Brandy was during the planning process. As the point person for all of our vendors, Brandy was organized, thorough and did not forgot a thing! We also really appreciated how quickly she responded to our emails. Brandy is sweet and down to earth and also extremely professional. She made our wedding run smoothly and everything was truly perfect! If there's one thing that you do for your wedding, it's HIRE BRANDY!!

Brandy was an incredible wedding planner. We had a fusion wedding which she handled beautifully. On the wedding day we had very little to do but relax (and perhaps stress a little) as she took care of the details and each venue we walked into looked exactly as we'd planned. I'd highly recommend her to any couple who wants as de-stressed a wedding experience as possible!

Brandy and St. Louis Wedding Consultants did an AMAZING job making my husband and I feel relaxed on our special day! They took the time for even the smallest details. They knew what questions needed to be answered before I even knew what to ask. Brandy checked in with me at every turn and embraced all our personal touches we wanted to include. It was such a good feeling to know we had St. Louis Wedding Consultants there throughout the entire process! When the Big Day came my family and I could just enjoy those special moments together!

We were lucky enough to work with Brandy and her team for a weekend full of wedding festivities for her clients. Brandy was extremely organized, diligent, and detail-oriented. Friday evening's event consisted of multiple vendors with food, lounge furniture and lighting -- it was all coordinated flawlessly. Saturday's wedding reception brought together multiple cuisines from two different caterers and also went off without a hitch. Our team would absolutely recommend Brandy to plan any future events!

We met Brandy soon after my husband and I became engaged. Brandy came highly recommended and I feel compelled to highly recommend her to anyone. We had already picked out our venue, band and some other vendors, so we ultimately chose the "month of" coordination plan, and I am so happy we did. While many may think "month of" coordinators only work the month before your wedding that is far from the truth. Brandy was available by phone or email to quickly answer any of our questions and give us advice during the year and change ahead of our wedding. During the month of she took all the work off our plate - calling our vendors, making sure they would be at the right place at the right time, picking up day of details for the venue, and making sure we had nothing to worry about the weekend of the wedding. I'm still smiling from my wedding weekend (not even a couple weeks ago) and I'm so happy I got to be a carefree bride because of Brandy.

St. Louis Wedding Consultants really helped us out! We worked with Brandy, and anything we asked her she got done. We didn't need to worry about anything the day-of because we knew Brandy was coordinating everything behind the scenes.

Hiring St. Louis Wedding Consultants as our day-of planner was the best idea ever! My daughter’s wedding was absolutely perfect and went on without a hitch. From the very beginning of the day to the end of the evening, by having Brandy there it allowed us to relax and enjoy the entire day with our family and friends. We wouldn’t have been able to do it without them. Thank you Brandy!

Brandy was a God-send. Honestly cannot recommend her highly enough. Speaking as the MOB, if you want to enjoy your daughter’s wedding day, sign up with St Louis Wedding Consultants. Most value-added line item of the entire wedding budget - by FAR!

Brandy Sheehan helped make our wedding day truly PERFECT! I cannot even begin to describe how talented, professional, organized, and dedicated she is. I highly recommend her! Our day was flawless! She listened to everything, and made it happen with ease. Her easy going demeanor brought us comfort, and I trusted her wholeheartedly to get the job done-which she did. She contacted vendors, answered questions, and made sure everything ran smoothly. I would not recommend planning a wedding without utilizing Brandy's top notch skills. I cannot thank her enough for making our dream a reality. Brandy, you are talented and perfect at what you do. Keep up the good work! Thank you again for everything!!

We chose Brandy to be our day of wedding coordinator, but she was so much more. She was available to answer questions and give advice from beginning to end and she was always prompt in communicating with us. Brandy is a true professional who knows what questions to ask to get the details she needs to provide a stress free planning experience from beginning to end. Her calm and capable manner allowed the process to be fun and fabulous. My now daughter in law and I knew that with Brandy the wedding day would be perfection, and it truly was. Brandy is the best of the best!

We highly recommend St. Louis Wedding Consultants! We planned a multicultural wedding with two ceremonies, along with a welcome brunch and farewell brunch - all via phone call and email to Brandy as we live in Manhattan. Brandy is well versed in all St. Louis vendors, provides great recommendations and very thorough. Our wedding celebration weekend would not have happened if it weren't for her support. Not only did we have an amazing weekend, but our guests can't stop talking about their experience as well.

Brandy at STLWC is truly amazing! She was so accommodating and on it the whole year we were planning. She made sure everything was exactly how I wanted and on the day of continued to ask me if I personally needed anything on top of managing everything else going on. She was great to work with and I would recommend her to anyone!

What an amazing wedding celebration we had. Brandy was incredible and we definitely couldn't have pulled off a New Years Eve wedding without her! We didn't have to worry about anything all night long because she was right there dealing with it all. Our daughter's wedding turned out to be everything and more that we had hoped for. Thank you Brandy!

Brandy from St. Louis Wedding Consultants was amazing! Our daughter's wedding day was perfect and I tribute this to Brandy. She made everything run so smoothly and took care of all the details so we did not have to worry about anything. We enjoyed every moment of our daughter's wedding and reception. Thank you so much Brandy!

Shayna and Brandy make this experience so much easier and enjoyable! They do not miss a single detail and take care of everything. I can't imagine planing a wedding without their help and expertise. They have great ideas, vendors, organize everything for you, check in and follow up with everyone, set up and move things on that day that you need help with and so much more. They keep the day moving and on schedule and handle all the little behind the scene things so you can enjoy your day! They made my daughters vision for her day a reality!

I HIGHLY recommend St. Louis Wedding Consultants! Shayna and Brandy know the industry so well and it made the planning process go very smoothly. Their design for our wedding reception was stunning and I am very grateful for their creativity and great ideas. Brandy managed all of the details of the wedding so well and this was greatly appreciated as I live out of town and doing most of the planning remotely. Brandy was always quick to respond and no detail was missed. We had nothing to worry about the day of the wedding thanks to Brandy being so organized!

Brandy was nothing short of incredible! She was so helpful, would answer all of my stupid questions promptly and kept us on a great planning path. I wasn't stressed at all come wedding week all thanks to her. There was one mistake that we caught at the venue during the rehearsal, but she pulled me aside and talked to me about it and helped me with our options on what to do. Luckily, it was a quick fix and everything went smoothly the day of the wedding. I even called her Sunday morning about misplaced items and she was able to point us in the right direction. Again, everything was so easy, quick and smooth with St. Louis Wedding Consultants. A must have for wedding planning!!!!

St. Louis Wedding Consultants did an excellent job preparing for our wedding! Brandy and Shayna were professional, extremely responsive, and very knowledgeable about vendors, pricing, and logistics. They were able to keep us within our budget and worked with us in identifying appropriate vendors. Most importantly, they were there for advice and preparation - including last minute preparation - at all hours at any time. I would recommend them without hesitation - they were more than worth the cost of their services!

Brandy and Shayna are the best wedding planners there are! Quick response time, amazing guides/leaders, fun, punctual, creative, and knowledgable are just a couple of their many great qualities! Thank you so much for helping create the best day of my life!

I cannot say enough good things about Shayna Laiderman and her team at Saint Louis Wedding Consultants! They are efficient,helpful beyond measure, quick to respond toa bride's (or her mother's) needs, and know everything I didn't think to doo. Amazing!

Shayna is the best wedding planner! She is truly amazing at what she does! Our wedding was amazing because of her!

My husband and I are both from St Louis but are living in Arlington, Virginia. We decided we wanted to have our wedding in St Louis where all of our family and friends live. I knew planning a wedding from half a country away would be difficult so I turned to Katie Fogerty from St Louis Wedding Consultants for help! From the start, everything Katie did for us went above and beyond our expectations. I was constantly impressed by her expert advice and creative vision. I will never forget the moment when I walked into my reception for the first time. I was speechless and kept thinking..I can't believe this is MY wedding! It was an absolute dream and I am forever grateful for everything Katie and Shayna did for us! I would recommend them to anyone for any event :-).

Do you really need a wedding coordinator? That’s the question I kept asking myself as my wedding day was slowly approaching. I mean c’mon I had basically picked all of my vendors, I was a planning machine and had most of my ducks in a row, what more could a weekend planner provide?! As I went back and forth on whether to book a planner and time began to run out I finally figured I might as well be safe rather than sorry. So, after much research and after speaking with my other vendors (who highly recommended Shayna Laiderman) I hired St. Louis Wedding Consultants. My expectation was that Shayna would be there as a “just in case” person if anything were to go wrong so that I wouldn’t have to deal with any last minute hassles. I never expected the level of service that Shayna brought. Hands down the BEST money I spent throughout this entire wedding was on hiring St. Louis Wedding Consultants. I had no idea how valuable having Shayna there would be. I literally could not have done it without her. Shayna and I spoke in the few weeks heading up to the wedding. She called all of my vendors and confirmed arrival times, she made a detailed timeline for the entire wedding weekend including the golf outing for the boys, nail appointments for the girls, hair and makeup times, lunch times, the entire reception timeline with first dance, all the toasts, wedding party intro’s, you name it she covered it. Shayna conducted the rehearsal the day before the wedding and I knew then that I was in good hands! I had to ask for NOTHING the day of the wedding. EVERYTHING was done for me, even things that I never thought of. Shayna and her assistant were so on the ball it was ridiculous. They arrived early to the hotel, kept everyone on schedule – including my groom and the groomsmen which were all but clueless. Nothing was left unattended to and no detail was forgotten. Shayna took my placecards, programs, table numbers, wedding favors, etc…and went early to both the reception site and ceremony site and made sure that everything was in its place and properly set up. Shayna calmed my nerves and made me feel so comfortable before the ceremony. She got everyone lined up cued the musicians and the officiant, fixed my dress, tacked down the runner, lined up the groomsmen, and the list goes on and on. Once we got to the reception Shayna continued to keep everything on schedule, she checked with me several times to make sure that everything was to my liking. My parent’s car was packed with gifts, guestbook, my veil, cake top, etc…during the reception without anyone asking. My groom, my in-laws, my parents, and the entire wedding party all complimented Shayna and how much work she put into making sure everything ran smoothly. I seriously cannot stress enough how much Shayna was crucial element of my wedding going perfectly. She was fun, professional, efficient and covered all the bases. I actually miss her. I would stress to any bride the importance of hiring a planner even if just for the weekend!! I would 100%, without a doubt recommend St. Louis Wedding Consultants. In fact I wish Shayna could come home with me and plan my life after the wedding 

We used this wedding planner for my daughter's wedding in February in St. Louis, MO. Ms. Laiderman was professional, knowledgeable about area vendors, easy to work with and made our day flow so smoothly. She took the stress out of the day and was a tremendous help. I would recommend the company to anyone and would use her again in the future.

Overpriced. Terrible service. My personal attendant did so much more for me- for free! Would give 0 stars if it was an option.

We are currently planning our wedding with Shayna. We have a few months left before it happens and we already have everything planned and are just finishing up the last details. Shayna has been amazing through the process. I contacted 3 wedding vendors in St. Louis and Shayna was the only one to call me back. She was actually in labor the day I called and she still called me back a few days later. We set up a meeting a few weeks later and hired her on the spot. She has provided us with great ideas and great vendors. I have total confidence that everything will go as planned on our wedding day. I don't know what that negative review is about but it sounds like someone who signed a contract and then for whatever reason changed her mind and wanted their money back. I will recommend Shayna to anyone I know in the future who is planning a wedding. Everytime we spent money on anything she always ran it by me and I either paid the bill myself or approved the purchase. If you go over budget it will be your own fault not Shanya's. Our wedding is for over 300 guests and it has been a great experience so far.

If it weren't for STL Wedding Consultants, I would have gone mad! I was only engaged for a short period (5 months), so the wedding planning was a complete and total whirlwind. Shayna of STLWC was an absolute lifesaver, the wedding planning and day of was amazing. I'm a controlling, anxious person and she took over completely, not only making sure that everything ran smoothly, but that I was happy as well. After the wedding, even my husband said numerous times how much work they did while making it look effortless - we were lucky to have worked with them. STLWC is a fantastic company and I continue to encourage all my engaged friends to use them. They will make your dream day the very best. Thank you Shayna at STLWC!

I am getting married in a little under three weeks and hiring Shayna was a great decision. When we met for the first time, I did not feel the need to meet with anyone else. Our personalities clicked and she made me feel at ease. I actually did event planning in my last job, but I had no idea where to start with my own wedding. Shayna immediately created a master budget and she sent me lists of vendors. I narrowed the list to a few vendors from each category and Shayna set up and attended all of the appointments. She was even with me when I bought my dress! Shayna has thought of everything and has handled all the stressful details. I have a peace of mind that Shayna will be there for me on the day of the wedding. I am looking foward to my wedding day and I believe that everything is going to be beautiful beyond my dreams. I think of Shayna as a new friend and I look forward to keeping in touch with her after the wedding.

From the moment I contacted STL Wedding Consultants it's been nothing but a pleasant experience. I came in not really knowing how and where to begin, but immediately I felt at ease as they took what little ideas I had in my head for the wedding and turned them into an amazing picture. Even down to my dress, my consultant Shayna came with me as I tried dress after dress until I found the one for me...MY gown! I haven't had any problems whatsoever, I've had some issues on my end with the date and she took care of everything immediately! Most importantly I feel very comfortable opening up to her which makes me feel even better about the planning progress. I would definitely recommend STL Wedding Consultants!

Shayna was a wonderful wedding consultant; when we met I instantly knew I wanted to hire her. She made me feel at ease and thankful that she was there to be the "go-to person" for all my vendors. We hired her for the whole day, but she went above and beyond--we met several times before the "big day" and even allowed me to store my wedding favors in her freezer: 175 large cookies! I would recommend her to everyone who is getting married!

After contacting several other planners in St. Louis, who refused to meet with me without knowing my budget, I met with Shayna and we instantly clicked! I knew exactly what I wanted, and could IMMEDIATELY tell Shayna would take my vision and make it a reality. Therefore, I had no problems having her attend meetings without me being there, I knew my vision would be well represented. Shayna worked over FIVE HUNDRED hours on my wedding, I could not have asked for a better coordinator. After our first meeting right away Shayna got to work setting up meetings with potential venues. Based on her recommendation we chose the Four Seasons and could not have been happier. Shayna spend the next fourteen months espertly executing our perfect day! She wrangled 14+ vendors (that I can think of, there was probably more!) all while she was pregnant! She had specific time lines for each person and managed to coordinate a two day load in and load out seamlessly. Shayna worked countless hours making my dream come true. She answered, by my count, over 3,500 emails, countless text messages, and even frantic phone calls in the middle of the night when I forgot what decision I made. Shayna pre-interviewed every vendor that I worked with to be sure we'd be a good match and I was more than satisfied with ALL of her recommendations. During our time working together Shayna had a vacation planned, but drove specifically so she could have all of the notes about my big day with her in case of an 'emergency'. Shayna was always early for each meeting, overly prepared, and could answer ANY question regarding the most minute detail (like the width of the ribbon on the menu cards) off the top of her head. An email never went more than a few hours without a reply, a call never without a return, and a questions never not answered... she did it ALL! Shayna knew every detail inside and out! She brought the most experienced team with her the day of the event, and I could not have asked for a better day! I know that my day was flawlessly executed (and with 380+ people, 14+ vendors, and our budget that wasn't easy!) and that was due to Shayna and her well managed team. In addition to our daily emails Shayna constantly provided updates as to where we were with our budget and attempted to keep us on track (we were only over because I'm terrible at sticking to a budget, thank goodness for Shayna!). Any problems that arose throughout the week of the big day, Shayna handled behind the scene, keeping me (and most importantly my mother!) calm and on track. At one point during the reception I lost a bobbypin in my hair, and before I could even reach up to remove it, she was standing behind me, bobbypin in hand! It's like she has ESP. I could not have invented a better wedding coordinator if I tried, Shayna is absolutely perfect, and I would recommend her TIME AND TIME AGAIN! She is truly the best there is in St. Louis. My wedding in December of 2009 was flawless, I can't say enough great things about Shayna.

I used STL Wedding Consultants for my August 2010 wedding. We had already chose our vendors, so we hired them for just the day of coordination. Shayna and Brandy were great! They confirmed with all my vendors the week of my wedding and also thought of last minute details I didn't think of. The day of my wedding was PERFECT! I didn't worry about a think because Brandi and the interns had everything under control. I would definitely recommend STL Wedding Consultants for your wedding.
