Weddings by Stardust is an absolute dream to work with! If you’re looking for a wedding planner, look no further. We had the pleasure of working with Peyton, and I can’t emphasize ...
enough how detailed, organized, and genuinely fun she is.
Both my husband and I work full-time, and Peyton made the entire planning and vendor coordination process completely stress-free and enjoyable. I created a design board to share my vision, and Peyton brought it to life flawlessly. At every vendor appointment, she had already pre-selected options that matched my style perfectly. She was spot-on every single time, which made decision-making effortless.
When unexpected rain forced us to move the wedding indoors at the last minute, Peyton and her team handled the transition seamlessly. Everything went so smoothly that by the next day, we’d practically forgotten it had even rained.
I can’t recommend Weddings by Stardust enough. They truly made our wedding day magical and we are incredibly thankful.

I wish I could give Weddings by StarDust 10 stars. If you're looking for a planner that will exceed your expectations while making you feel like family, you should absolutely hire ...
Weddings by StarDust.
Without a doubt, they are the most elite, best team in all of Dallas. My husband interviewed 7 other wedding planners and immediately felt confident in Marsha and her team.
They made the entire process feel like a breeze because of their organization, attention to detail, efficiency and creativity. Marsha, Shonna and Peyton's attention to detail is unmatched. They managed and thought of every tiny detail to make sure our weekend was everything we wanted - and then some!
Marsha got to know as a couple and implemented decor and designs that we never even dreamed of but knew we would love it (topiaries of our dogs at the welcome party - amazing!). Marsha took the time to answer every single question, anticipated our concerns and addressed them.
And, they have incredible relationships with the top vendors in Dallas - extremely important! Every vendor we spoke with mentioned how wonderful it is to work with Marsha and her team, and how incredibly talented Weddings by StarDust is.
They are genuinely passionate about their profession and I was overwhelmed by how stellar and amazing our wedding was. Thank you Weddings by StarDust for making our wedding a dream come true. Thank you for taking our vision and making it a reality for us, our family and friends. We will never be able to thank you for all of your hard work, love, compassion and talent.

nd PERFECTLY tailored to us. Planning my wedding was no small feat- it was a complex destination wedding with strict rules that 99% of venues don’t have, but Peyton navigated every challenge with poise and expertise, turning obstacles into opportunities for something even more beautiful! From start to finish, she created an experience that I will truly cherish forever.
Through it all, Peyton was more than just a wedding planner- she became my best friend, offering calm, unwavering support that made even the most stressful moments feel effortless. Her dedication is a reflection of Stardust, a company that genuinely cares about its clients and consistently goes above and beyond to create something extraordinary.
Now that the wedding is over, I miss working with Peyton and the entire Stardust team so much. Their kindness, professionalism, and creativity made every step of the process a joy. I truly hope I have the opportunity to work with Peyton again in the future. Her talent and commitment are unmatched, and I wouldn’t even consider using anyone else for any event!
If you’re on the fence about choosing a wedding planner, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’d be more than happy to share my experience and answer any questions you may have. Working with Peyton and Stardust was the best decision I could have made!

Peyton is the absolute best wedding planner out there! Peyton’s thoughtful approach and attention to detail truly made our special day perfect. From the moment we started planning, she took the time to understand our vision and made sure every aspect of the day reflected what we wanted!
Not only did Peyton personalize every detail of the wedding to us, but she also went above and beyond to ensure that our guests had an amazing experience. From the decor to the wedding day activities, everything was meticulously planned to create a memorable and seamless event.
Thanks to Peyton’s expertise and organization, the day ran so smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing. Her professionalism and dedication were truly exceptional, and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner.
If you're looking for someone who will make your wedding day truly special and unforgettable, we highly recommend Peyton. Thank you for everything, Peyton!

We had the most seamless and flawless experience. Peyton and her team truly created a fairytale wedding for us. They went above and beyond our expectations and were available to us...
day and night. Peyton managed every aspect of this wedding with grace and ease and there was no stone left unturned. Most of all, we had so much fun the whole time. We are really sad now that the wedding is over because we loved being with Peyton and had so many laughs. I would never use anyone else besides Weddings by Stardust. They are a class act, and we are eternally grateful for the memories that we will have for a lifetime.

edding, dress for my daughter, veil, gloves, etc without Marsha and her whole team. They are the epitome of professionalism, compassionate, patience, encouragement, kindness, and detail oriented that I hope for always when hiring for an important project. The outcome and experience from start to finish, and due to Marsha's incredible relationships with all the best venues and outfits that fall under the umbrella of "all things wedding related". I truly can't recommend them enough, and can't wait to work with them again for my younger daughters wedding when that time comes. We purchased the full package, as I am disabled, and that is the package I recommend. You will have no idea of anything that ever goes a bit wrong on the day of the wedding. I have nothing but praise to give for Stardust and particularly Marsha who is the owner, and lead planner. You too will feel that was money SO WELL USED and worth every penny and then some!

Marsha and our team strive to provide the utmost professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail for every event we plan, so your appreciation means the world to us. We are especially pleased to know that our full package helped ease your experience, allowing you to enjoy every moment of your daughter’s special day without worry.

Weddings By Stardust exceeded my wildest expectations. I would highly, HIGHLY recommend to any bride and groom! My husband and I had a 3-day wedding weekend planned that included a...
rehearsal luncheon, a traditional wedding ceremony, a formal dinner, and a Saturday reception with 300+ guests. Peyton, our lead planner, was such a reassuring, attentive, detail oriented planner. She was always available and responsive, no matter what time I'd text or email her. I now believe there is a real psychology behind talking to the bride in a way that was always comforting, always thinking ahead, handled and had an answer for every little last minute question or worry I had. I never intended on working with any wedding planners or coordinators, but I think all my lucky stars I turned it over to Peyton. Furthermore, I could have never pulled off a big weekend like this all alone. Peyton, Shonna, Jayce and Marsha, I can't thank you guys enough for all the hours of planning, meetings, and attention to the details you all put into our wedding to make it so special.
My husband and I look forward to partnering for more events, parties and anniversaries with Weddings By StarDust.

d all the help that we could find. Marsha had the knowledge, the connections with all the vendors and understood my daughter and son-in-law’s vision. We ended up with a better wedding than we could ever have imagined. It was stress free, well planned - well in advance. We had a last trip to meet in TX in February (wedding was April 15th) and all last details were done then. Before the wedding Marsha told us that she’d take care of anything and everything the wedding day and only let us know if it affected us financially. And she did. I still don’t know if there were any details that didn’t go as planned. For us it was a dreamy day just focusing on the happy couple and having so much fun. We were taking care of from the first contact until the day after the wedding. The vendors she works with are phenomenal. We are so thankful and hope that other families gets to experience the wedding planning as fun and stressfree as we did. Thank you Marsha, Peyton and Jacy!

Working with Marsha, Peyton and The Stardust team exceeded our expectations in every way.
I could not get over how much time Marsha and Peyton dedicated to getting to know us on ...
a personal level. Their amount of patience with my husband (who made it clear he was not into this stuff 75% of the time) and I was exceptional.
They kept us on task all the while making the long process feel fun and light.
Having already been married 11 years ago… I wanted this to be special for my husband and truly capture “us”… I knew what I did NOT want… but not so much what I actually wanted. Marsha and Peyton gave us the ideal wedding. Their attention to detail was above and beyond. It was a bazillion times better than my first wedding (which is saying a lot).
Stardust connected us with awesome vendors and coordinated and stayed on top of everything with the venue— so we were not even more stressed and overwhelmed than we were. The night was both beautiful and so so much fun. Plus, we just completely trusted their expertise-- and had to worry about nothing-- day of.
People have not stopped talking about the wedding and Team Stardust made sure everything flowed perfectly…. Which is saying a lot because there were so many moving parts.
Peyton was the absolute perfect lead. Professional. Friendly. Funny. Patient. We loved our experience and would HIGHLY recommend them. I wish I could go back to that night! I could not have asked for a more perfect evening / day. My husband won't stop talking about it and is raving about Stardust.

I was blessed enough to find Shonna Gainey with Weddings by Stardust for my lead wedding planner. I could not have been paired with a more perfect person to lead me through the pla...
nning process and execute the vision for our rehearsal dinner and wedding day. Shonna is amazing in every way. She listens to you, asks the right questions, builds a vendor team (with your input) of the very best of the best and is a calm and graceful leader. She is flexible in her schedule, responds quickly and ensures that everything is exactly as you've asked.
Because of Shonna, I had the perfect wedding day. I was calm all morning, knowing that Shonna and her team were able to handle everything and she would know exactly what I would do or want if something came up. Our vision came to life as if someone was in my mind and was able to take a picture of exactly how I envisioned things and put it into reality. The flowers, music, food, decorations etc were perfect.
I could gush for hours on Shonna, her expertise, her professionalism and her friendship. I am honored to have worked with her and I would recommend her to everyone that asks.
She is worth every single penny (and more)! If you are getting married and looking for a planner, RUN to find her!

Marsha Ballard French is absolutely wonderful to work with! We truly hit the jackpot when she took over our daughter's wedding planning with only 4 months to go (after our original...
planner left the business). She worked tirelessly to understand our vision and her wealth of experience and connections offered us the opportunity to incorporate things we'd not thought of previously. Marsha knew just what we needed, what we could do without, and we trusted her completely! She even managed to find us a string quartet one week out when we realized we’d made a mistake by not including one. Our wedding venue was quite large, and we had a very complicated set up with a lot of moving pieces, but Marsha and her team took care of everything. The wedding was truly like a fairytale, and we couldn’t be more grateful. She is the best in the business and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

ndors let alone your planner except via zoom, but Jacy made it a breeze. She kept me on track, gave her opinion and most importantly encouraged me along the way. She always answered my calls and my texts, usually asking something ridiculous which I am forever grateful for.
The package I chose was where Jacy took over 30 days before the wedding, and handled one vendor 100% I picked floral for her to manage. Jacy picked the best florist for me. She guided the meetings along, and help me express my visions. Everything Jacy did the day of helped me have a stress free day and I am so happy we got to work together, highly recommend Stardust, but especially Jacy!

I worked with Jacy throughout my wedding process - which was longer than expected. Our original wedding was supposed to be in March of 2020 which had to be canceled due to the pand...
emic. We had to cancel 6 days beforehand and Jacy worked to help coordinate with all of my vendors to do so and in turn, we were able to secure back 100% of our money. We then rescheduled the wedding to November of 2020 and it went seamlessly! Jacy helped to ease my stress the month prior to the wedding by tying up all of the loose ends with my vendors and coordinating with them all to make sure we had everything we needed. I was wildly impressed by her and her team's professionalism and attention to detail on the day of the wedding. Both our family and friends were raving about them all day! I truly believe the day would not have been as perfect as it was without their help. My husband and I were allowed to enjoy every second of the day while they worked behind the scenes to make sure everything went well. I will be recommending her and Stardust Celebrations to anyone and everyone I know who is looking for a wedding planner in the future!

o save not only my sanity but my daughter's as well! In the very first meeting she asked such great questions she knew exactly what would work to combine Lauren and Carlos's visions into their dream wedding. She provided vendor options to compliment their vision and put together an incredible vendor team. The amount of detail that goes into planning a wedding is mind boggling and bumpy. Laura took all the bumps calmly and professionally and already had a solution before we could panic, and since she was planning this during a Pandemic when everyone was panicking it was quite a fete!! The fairy tale wedding she put together for my daughter exceeded every expectation we had and when people ask me what made it so magical my response is...to see my daughter and her new husband's awe at the ballroom reveal, as well as their ability to celebrate with such love and joy without worrying about what was going on around them, is a testament to Laura and the team she put together!!

edy problems before you know about them, work with your set budget, and make your dreams become reality! She was never judgemental and was always patient-even when we were indecisive or through some tough situations at her!
We wanted our wedding day to be a day we could ALL enjoy and because of Jacy and Laura we were able to! Our families, bridal party, and most importantly ourselves didn't have to worry about anything that day! They were so organized and prepared and set up everything to our exact expectations!
This planning group was a pure joy to work with and made everything so much easier- even though they were going through a merger with another company! When you as a client feel no change in pace or treatment during a merger, you know these ladies are talented!
We can't recommend Jacy enough- she made our day the dream come true that it was!

I cannot begin to describe wonderful my experience with StarDust wedding planners was! As a bride, they truly made my dream wedding come together flawlessly! Our planners were Co...
rinne, Jacy, Laura, and Sheri. They helped us think of every little detail that you wouldn't normally think about. We met with them several times before the wedding day, and it was obvious that they had put in countless hours helping us plan every little detail. They were in contact with all of our vendors/photographers/pastor, etc.. My photographer (who is well known in the DFW area) even reached out to me telling me that she had never seen wedding planners as organized and prepared as mine! The day of the wedding, they came 100% prepared down to the minute with exactly what we needed to be doing and helped make sure that others were prepared as well. They showed up looking beautiful, happy, and professional. They were constantly checking in with me, my parents, the groom, and everyone else there making sure that everyone was happy and had everything they needed. They completely took care of any issue that we were unhappy with. I don't know how we could have done it without them! It was definitely money well spent and a significant part of our wedding being drama free and perfect! We will never be able to thank them enough for their hard work and dedication in making our wedding day be everything we had dreamed of!

We highly recommend Weddings by StarDust and our lead planner, Corinne! We went with a partial planning package. Corinne helped us plan our wedding in Dallas while we were living...
out of state, and she made the process as stress-free and easy as it could have been. We knew nothing about wedding planning and she helped us navigate our vendor decisions, budget, guest list, and all of the day of details with ease. She was prompt in responding to our questions and kept us on task with gentle reminders about our to do list. she also helped us maintain our budget which was important to us. Our wedding day felt totally flawless and went so smoothly thanks to Corinne.

I feel so blessed to have had Sheri and her team (Laura and Corinne) on my wedding day. I truly do not know what I would have done without them! I used Stardust as my day-of-coordi...
nators and they were worth EVERY FREAKING PENNY. The peace of mind they provided was simply priceless. They made the rehearsal run smoothly. They made sure the entire wedding day ran smoothly, even with some crazy tight turn-arounds and timelines. The planners made sure everyone was on the same page and in the correct places, and they kept our wedding on schedule so that we did not miss a thing! I don’t even know how many fires they put out because to me, the day was perfect! As far as I know everything went exactly as planned. They are truly professionals and know what they are doing! HIRE THEM!! Lastly, just because it is hilarious and to show you what I mean when I say they take care of EVERYTHING—my groom got into a dance off with my dad mid-reception and ripped his tux pants LITERALLY IN HALF, and Laura SEWED MY GROOMS PANTS back together so that he could get back out on the dance floor!! He barely missed a thing! These ladies are truly one of a kind and helped make our wedding day the most perfect day! 10/10 recommend!!

Stardust Celebrations planned and executed my sisters wedding flawlessly, so it was an easy choice to have them do my wedding as well. Stardust is a one stop shop - I literally did...
everything there! Bought my dress, ordered invitations, and did ALL my planning!! Laura Hendricks was our planner, and she went above and beyond and totally exceeded expectations! Her relationship with vendors and her ability to implement my vision was so impressive. I don't know that I would have changed a single thing, everything was on point, executed so smoothly, and absolutely beautiful!!! I would give 10 stars if I could!

We cannot recommend these ladies higher! We planned our wedding in Dallas from Los Angeles and Corinne was our lead planner. She was super organized, super patient with us and a gr...
eat listener. She made everything so much easier for us and was even our eyes and ears in Dallas in some cases. Whenever we saw an idea or concept that we wanted to know more about, Corinne would promptly send us a list of vendors who could make that happen for us. We hired her as a partial planner, but felt like she had our backs throughout the entire process. She made it easy to schedule our in person meetings, even when the time frame was limited (b/c we had to travel in.) She was also very conscientious of our budget, which was important to us.
Thanks to Corinne and her team, I (bride) had the most stress free wedding planning experience and wedding day. After watching so many of my friends go through the process and seeing how stressful the day of can get, a top priority for me was that I wanted to just enjoy it all.. On the day of, I didn't worry about a single thing. I knew we were on the same page and she would handle anything that came up. She is a seasoned wedding planner and so are the rest of the Stardust team!! I can honestly say that I spent my entire wedding day actually enjoying myself with my ladies and my mom and it is 100% thanks to them. I would recommend them to anyone, they are a team you can trust with your special weekend!

We planned our wedding from long distance and worked with Weddings by StarDust. Our wedding planner was Corinne and she was amazing! She listened to what our vision was and gave ...
us suggestions and options to make that happen. She made sure to keep our budget in mind and made our decisions easy and fun. We planned our wedding in about 8 months and felt that we got everything that we needed and wanted. I would have paid twice what we did to have her! We truly enjoyed the process (something everyone told us we would not enjoy), and would recommend her and Weddings by StarDust to anyone starting to plan their big day! I can't say enough good things about Corinne and will really miss working with her now that our wedding has happened!

lead planner and Katie was our assistant, and they were absolutely amazing! It was the best money that we spent on our wedding. Not only were Corinne and Katie great leading up to the day but we also felt that we were in really good hands on our wedding day. Our venue was a multi-floor venue in a downtown area, and they did an amazing job handling logistics. We had a great experience with this vendor and we would highly recommend Weddings by Stardust!

Oh my....Where do I begin???!!!! Melanie at Refined Romance made our dreams come true! From start to finish, she was attentive, responsive, professional, on the ball, willing, an...
d always SO sweet!!!! I chose Refined Romance because of their great reviews, professional website, and the biographies of the four planners on the team. I chose Melanie in particular because of her extensive experience coupled with her energetic and sweet personality!
I was a bride-to-be with no knowledge of wedding planning (or even weddings period), I had trouble making wedding decisions initially, and I am also quite the Type A perfectionist. Recipe for disaster, right? Well Melanie's extensive knowledge of the industry, patience, and willingness to answer my zillions of emails put my mind at ease on numerous occasions. We had several planning meetings throughout the process, and she attended vendor meetings with me, as well. her coordination with the vendors was the absolute most priceless service of all! She also went above and beyond for me on at least several occasions, including having a spontaneous three-hour meeting with me all the way across town from her office, which was not part of the original plan. That is just one example of many. She gave me so much comfort and peace-of-mind, and no one can put a price on that during wedding season, haha. I am so grateful.
I seriously don’t know what we would have done without Melanie and Jacy (one of the other wonderful Refined Romance planners who served as an assistant at my wedding) on the wedding day. They handled everything seamlessly, and I hardly had any idea of all the magic they were making until I walked down the aisle of the chapel and the stairs of the reception ballroom. I was truly amazed! The wedding turned out more beautifully than I ever even envisioned it, and everyone has seriously been raving about it ever since. Some people who have been to MANY weddings said it was the most beautiful and/or fun wedding they have been to!!! I really wanted everyone to have fun and enjoy themselves, and boy, did we ever accomplish that!
Most importantly, it is SO critical for your wedding planner to be someone you enjoy, and Melanie is just such a bright light and wonderful person. I give her my highest recommendation!

Before I met with Julie at Refined Romance I had met with another wedding planner who was very nice but it all felt impersonal, cold and just not right. The moment I walked into t...
he office and met Julie and Jacy I knew it was different. They were so incredibly personable and the more we talked the more I knew they were the right choice. Jacy was my primary planner with Emily assisting and I honestly can't say enough good things about them! Since I already chose all my vendors I decided to go with the package that gave me a month of their service with day-of-coordinator. Since I knew very little about wedding planning I appreciated how comfortable they made me feel and I never felt judged for being clueless! Saying they were helpful is an understatement. I am a very detail oriented person who likes a plan. I was running around and a bit stressed the few weeks leading up to the wedding (as all brides) getting all the details squared away. The day OF the wedding I had no stress, no worries because I knew Jacy and Emily had it all under control. I 100% trusted that they would take the lead, set everything up that I entrusted them with and knew they would do an amazing job. I knew this because of how incredibly responsive Jacy was with every email, every question answered, and constantly brought things up I myself never even thought about. Knowing you can rely on someone is rare and absolutely wonderful. On top of it all it was always done with a positive attitude and a genuine smile. I can't imagine being around Jacy and not be in a good mood. I was sincerely sorry when the wedding was over not just because it was over but because that meant Jacy was no longer in my life haha. She is a wonderful person through and through. While I didn't interact with Emily as much since my contact was more with Jacy as the head planner, I did see her on the day of the wedding and noticed how tirelessly she worked, always keeping an eye out that everything was running smoothly. Hiring them was the best thing I could have done and would absolutely recommend them for any event planning!

tement to say that wedding planning is stressful - but not with these ladies! As soon as Jacy and Melanie stepped in, everything was seamless! They handled everything beautifully from contacting vendors to working with our families to DESIGNING OUR SEATING ARRANGEMENT! As you can tell, the last one was huge for me - I spent months trolling wedding websites and Pinterest to find something that Melanie created that fit my wedding perfectly. You could not be in better hands with the ladies at Refined Romance! and if you'd ask my husband, he'd say that Refined Romance was the best choice we made for our wedding. As most brides would say, I'd relive our wedding any day but without having to re-plan it - with Refined Romance, I'd plan it all over again, too as long I'd have these ladies by my side

sionalism matched with her kindness made everything come together perfectly. From beginning to end anything I needed she had a solution and a plan. Many wedding planners I interviewed made me feel like I was just another bride (not listening to my request, etc.), but Melanie treated me and my husband with respect and we had 100 % confidence in her that our day would be great! She was nice to our wedding party, family and friends. I would give her more than 5 stars if I could! She was affordable and made us feel like royalty. Thank you Melanie so much for making our day magical and well put together. I would recommend you to any bride looking for a seamless process on their special day. We love you!!

After reading the other reviews on here, they all couldn't be more right. There aren't enough words to describe how amazing Stardust is and what a fantastic job they did. I was one...
of those brides who thought they could plan the entire wedding by myself - after a couple months, I realized that there was no way I would be able to do this by myself. But wanting to make sure that I would be in good hands, I researched dozens of different wedding planners, and interviewed at least 6. Stardust was the first team that I met with and they immediately set the bar extremely high. From then on, every other planner I interviewed didn't even hold a candle to Stardust. Laura was my planner and I honestly can't say enough amazing things about this woman. Of course she's incredibly detailed and organized as any wedding planner should be, but what I truly loved is the fact that she really listens and understands your vision so she can help bring it to life. And because she takes the time to understand and get to know you, she connects you with the perfect vendors so it completely takes the stress off. She's patient and together and makes the planning process FUN. And this might be the most important part of all - because of her and the Stardust team, I was able to actually ENJOY every moment of my wedding. People say there's always at least one thing that goes wrong on your wedding day. If something did go "wrong" on my wedding day, I certainly didn't know about it. Everything was beyond my expectations and went so smoothly. Every single person who came said it was the BEST wedding they had ever been to and my friends who have gotten married said they've never seen a planner that on top of everything. So while the day went by way too fast, because of Laura (and Stardust), I was completely relaxed, able to have fun and soak in every moment. Best day of my life.

fantastic! They made it to where all of our vendors and such ran smooth, we didn’t have to worry or stress leading up to the day of the wedding. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else but Refined Romance. They truly impacted our day in the best way possible! I am a very high strung person, and Jacy and Sarah made it to where it didn’t even seem like wedding planning; it was just fun. They’re so organized and work so well as a team. It made our day the best day to remember. By the end of the wedding, they felt like family and not just our wedding planners. They love what they do, and it genuinely shows! If you are thinking twice about getting a planner, don’t think twice, just do it - and go with Refined Romance!!! Thank you for making our day smooth, stress free and the best day ever!!
