We absolutely loved having Faith there prior to out wedding to help hash out details we didn't even think about and most importantly on our actual wedding day. We literally did not...
have to worry about a single thing (and neither did our parents) during the day and just got to enjoy the entire day with all our guests completely stress-free. My parents live in California and my husband and I live in Minnesota so it was really nice having Faith set up Zoom meetings to help plan everything out together.
We completed a PowerHouse session with Faith and This Love Weds and it was exactly what I needed. We probably asked over 100 questions and she answered them all. I’ve never planned...
a wedding so to have her input was exactly what I needed to have our day go smoothly. It was the best day ever. Thank you Faith and This Love Weddings for making our day the most perfect and memorable for years to come.
If you are considering hiring a wedding planner, I would highly recommend This Love Weddings. I was encouraging my daughter to hire a wedding planner from the beginning, but she w...
as reluctant to do so. With all that a wedding entails, compounded with Covid-19 considerations, she reconsidered and decided to hire This Love Weddings. They were phenomenal! Faith is passionate about her work. She is competent, detail oriented, and responsive to her clients every need. She has excellent people skills and is adept in maneuvering emotionally charged and sensitive situations. Faith was instrumental in assisting with moving the wedding venue from indoors to outdoors and in applying Covid-19 safety measures to ensure guests felt safe in attending. And This Love Weddings prioritizes the needs of the bride and groom. Faith attended to every detail in ensuring that their day was special and exactly what they envisioned. I would highly recommend This Love Weddings!
Have you ever seen someone plan an entire “backyard” wedding and venue with less than three months, tons of COVID precautions, and over 100 people? We have and Faith was absolutely...
amazing!
We initially hired Faith to do day of coordination. When we realized our venue wasn’t aligning with our values and couldn’t meet our COVID-19 precautions we decided to switch gears and have an outdoor wedding at a family home. When we made this decision to change with only two and a half months left, we knew we couldn’t do it without having Faith on board as a full service planner.
We have no idea how Faith basically planned an entire wedding and created a venue with less than three months. But she did it and our wedding was absolutely beautiful.
Faith and her team understood our vision of an organic, inclusive, and romantic wedding. From the vendors she identified to the partners used, you could tell that every part of our day was intentional and personal. For us it was really important to support diverse businesses (POC, women, LGBTQ+, veteran owned) and Faith had all the right partners that aligned with our values and vision.
In addition to how the wedding came together day of, Faith was an outstanding partner throughout the entire process. We had a lot of anxieties around having our wedding at a family home due to typical family quarrels and heightened family input, but Faith navigated some of these tricky relationships as if she does it in her sleep. She understood our concerns and worked with family, all while ensuring that it remained our vision. There was never a moment where we felt like Faith wasn’t 1,000,000% in our corner.
Not only would Faith have been an A++ wedding planner for traditional weddings, but she breaks the scale for COVID weddings. Between high-risk parents and grandparents, and almost 200 total attendees (guests and staff), I sometimes wonder how no one contracted the virus but that wasn’t due to chance. Between Faith and her team checking temperatures upon arrival, distancing tables seated per household, and individual pens for each guest book signature (only to mention a few things), we were completely confident in having our wedding at such an uncertain time and we’re forever grateful that we had such an amazing partner for our day.
Faith made our middle of COVID Wedding Dreams happen!

ring COVID. My husband and I had to change plans 4 times. After our original venue told us they would not be open, we had 6 weeks to plan a new wedding and I knew I needed help. I found Faith and she truly helped us make our wedding possible in the middle of COVID in, 6 weeks. The best thing I did was hire Faith and I would highly recommend the investment in a wedding planner (Or at the bare minimum Designer + Day Of Coordinating) because not only will you save A LOT of time and stress, Faith actually saved us money with some vendors and her tips and help saved me so much stress. Not only was she so incredible to work with, she helped us with every detail and helped me juggle all the moving pieces, in a short amount of time. We had the wedding in our backyard near a nature preserve and Faith and her team set everything up PERFECTLY - I didn't get to see the full yard "venue" until I arrived for the first look and she and her team had everything setup and flowing perfectly. I was so thrilled when I saw everything. From the minute I woke up, the day flowed perfectly and she had everything in place. It's incredibly helpful to have someone who knows the industry, has great taste and can help interpret your style, which Faith did SO well. Honestly could not have imagined the day without her and her staff making sure everything stayed on time and went off perfectly. Not only did she and her team have to manage all of the decor setup, the incoming vendors, bridal party (which included 3 dogs!), the onsite vendors but they also had to make some last minute setup adjustments with our setup due to rain and they pulled everything off perfectly. I was concerned about being able to enjoy my day, especially with the wedding in my own backyard, but I showed up and 100% relaxed knowing she had everything absolutely running smoothly. I was able to fully enjoy my day - she was on top of everything, which meant so much to me. Both my husband and I had several family members go out of their way to say how wonderful she and her team were as well - which makes a big difference in the overall wedding day. Faith is professional, organized, very knowledgeable, has great suggestions - and she knows so many other vendors in the industry that all of my other vendors loved working with her as well. She helped me select the vendors I still needed to fill and it created a perfect team of people there on the day of that all truly felt like one team and worked together so well. Faith - thank you for all of your amazing help for our wedding. You truly went above and beyond. We were so lucky to have you there and helping us plan all of the details to make it beautiful and so meaningful. I would highly recommend Faith and her team whether you need full Planning, Design or Day Of Coordinating. This is the best investment to make for your wedding!

I normally don’t write reviews, but I have to this time because words are just not enough to express how grateful I am to the This Love Wedding team. My wedding was stunningly beau...
tiful, and it was everything I ever wanted for my special day. I had Faith as my planner for my wedding in September 2019, and few words I would use to describe her are: Professional, extremely attentive to details, (I mean lots of details), a dream to work with, and may I say she knows her stuff and passionate about her work. I saw Faith work online as soon as I got engaged and knew that I had to meet her; she had everything I wanted in a planner and just overall a great fit for me. Faith understood my vision right from the start and went right away to work by bringing together some of the biggest names in the wedding industry from around the country to execute on my vision. It took a lot of effort and she coordinated that flawlessly. She solicited my input and feedback every step of the way and always made us feel as though she had everything 100% under control; which she did because everything turned out STUNNING! Couldn’t have asked for more.
Faith is a top-notch planner and I am incredibly lucky to have had her lead my dream team. I highly recommend This Love Wedding and Faith and will vouch for her any day.
We would like to extend our thank you and gratitude to Faith and her team at This Love Weddings. We are so pleased and thankful for their hard work in coordinating our wedding day ...
with 320 guests. Faith listened to our needs and vision, and made everything come together seamlessly and professionally. I was surprised when her assistant came to the my room and stayed with us all morning as we got ready to make sure everything was OK. It was an extra special bonus to have that on top of everything that was going on that morning! Faith checked in on us throughout the day to let us know what is happening next in a calm demeanor which I truly appreciate. The one thing I believe every wedding planner + coordinator SHOULD BE is professional, knowledgeable, patient, and CALM. This was everything that Faith, and her team was and we are so lucky to have her be a part of our day!!!! THANKS FAITH!!!
Faith was amazing! She fully executed everything that I dreamed of! Her and her team were a dream to work with. She is knowledgeable, timely and just an overall great planner and d...

ld ever afford a wedding that looked the way it looked on our day. However, Faith took our vision and ran with it! She is truly a life saver and I don't mean the candy (lol). She also made me realize the importance of not cutting corners and was good at bringing us back to reality, enforcing practicality. Everyone can’t stop raving about our wedding. Best wedding ever! I would not change anything about how our day went. As with every wedding there will always be minor hiccups but Faith did everything in her power for our day to run as smoothly as possible. It was well executed and well planned.
It was very helpful to have a day-of coordinator with the wedding. Overall, Faith and Bami did a good job collecting the vendor details. Would have preferred that they would have e...
ntered the vendor details onto the website portal instead of emailing them the information and then also inputing it myself into the website. Faith could not be there the day of, so Bami was our actual day-of coordinator. This proved more difficult that expected though since my partner and I had never talked with Bami before and was not as familiar with her. Honestly, looking back, when Faith had said she was not available for the day of, I wish she would have recommended that we either communicate directly with Bami throughout weeks leading up to the wedding, or that she had recommended we find another wedding coordinator. For example, Faith gave us the wrong phone number for Bami (was incorrect by one digit) so my bride was very frustrated trying to reach Bami the day before the wedding. Also there were some people seated at the wrong table at the reception because of how Bami had interpreted the table map that we had shared with Faith. My bride also forgot her veil at the hotel - Bami was sweet to try to drive back and get it, but she could not get it in time. These are some examples of slips in communication because of having a different person than Faith on the day of the actual wedding.
I am so grateful to Faith and her team for making our wedding what it was! I live in San Francisco, (got married in St. Paul) and I hired Faith six weeks out from the wedding day, ...
and neither time nor distance was a barrier for her to work her magic. I am not the type of girl who has always dreamed about her wedding and loves the planning process (quite the opposite, actually) and one of the pieces that I appreciated most was that Faith was willing to help me think through details that I didn't even recognize needed to be addressed, and then she helped execute them perfectly on wedding day. It helped me know I was in great hands for the day of, and I wound up having a blast because my husband and I could focus on our guests and the events that were happening.
As our officiant leaned over and told my husband and I halfway through rehearsal, "I don't know what you're paying her, but she's well worth it!" I couldn't have said it any better!
We were beyond thrilled with the work that Faith and This Love Weddings did for our wedding. We went with the "Complete Planning" option and the title of services is accurate. Fait...
h did everything from scheduling appointments to negotiating contracts, to creating beautiful stationary for the day itself. In the lead up to the wedding everyone said we seemed very relaxed and I credit that to Faith. Thank you This Love Weddings!
I was very pleased with Faith's ability to come in and take over things at the last minute. I called her in about 2 weeks from my wedding day and even though it was a holiday weeke...
nd, she still took on the challenged. She immediately made me feel at ease and gave suggestions for last minute vendors that I could use in situations where things were not tied up. Her team took on decorating, child-care, and ran the rehearsal for us. I could not have done it without her! She made she everything ran on time and vendors were in line! It was a load taken off of me and I was well worth the cost. I would definitely recommend their services to other brides!
I had the opportunity to hire urban montage for my large 2 day wedding and I was happy with services that were provided by the company. It was a great experience and things went as...
well as they could. I will definitely hire urban montage again if I needed.
My wedding coordinator Faith was very professional. Her and her assistant came prepared only with one thing in mind, to be helpful all day. They never complained or stressed not on...
ce even when others were giving them a hard time throughout the day. As the bride, I wasn't able to do everything that day, but I knew I was in good hands with working with Urbane Montage because she ensured everything was handled and taken care of. She worked with other vendors and people behind the scenes to make sure items were completed timely and accurately. My mother was her main contact for the wedding day and the amount of stress she relieved my mother from that day was priceless. I would highly recommend this company for wedding coordination/planning, they make your special day stress-free and they don't miss a beat.
Everyone always tells you to prepare for something to go wrong at your wedding. Never did I think, that almost everything would be a mess at mine. From the caterer to the flowers, ...
my vendors were overhwelming. I would have thrown my hands up and asked for a complete re-do on the wedding if it wasn’t for Faith.
We signed on with Faith just two weeks before the wedding. In normal situations she’s guiding her clients from the very start of planning. I was extremely impressed and greatful she was willing to take on such a unique challenge on short notice. Instantly she was helping me prepare, giving suggestions, answering question. Her resourcefulness is top notch in this field.
The day before the wedding she organized the rehearsal with me. Ensured correct timing with our walks and the music. Made sure she knew where everything was and where it was suppose to be. Nailed down the schedule for the entire next day. She listens and provides.
Wedding Day. Faith was, hands down, absolutely amazing. A complete saving grace. Her ability to problem solve on the fly is a natural instinct that every bride should have by their side for the big day. From setting up flowers and cupcakes, to directing the crowds of people and music, Faith stepped up to the madness and went above and beyond. She took on every single issue that arose and turned complete chaos and into polished perfection.
I can’t thank her enough for being so wonderful. If you’re still reading this, I highly suggest you pull up your email or pickup your phone and get in touch with this stylish professional before her year books out!
With all the hours I spent making sure every detail was perfect I can't imagine doing it again without a day of coordinator. It was a small investment for peace of mind and ease. ...
I wanted my mom and aunts and sister to enjoy the big day and I didn't want to worry about place cards and frames as I was walking down the aisle. In walked Faith, who saved the day! She made everything go smoothly, her attention to detail, professional approach and amazing "can-do" attitude made me feel so relaxed. She made sure all my planning wasn't in vain- she made the day work seamlessly!
Faith and her team were absolutely wonderful! They did everything exactly as I asked with a smile. She is so sweet and offered so much extra help than I even expected. I definitely...
was the crazy bride who at the last minute is realizing all the things she forgot. She just kept telling me don't worry everything will be fine. We've got it. She knew when to take the initiative on items that needed it without bothering me and when she needed to bring me in on an issue or question. I would defninitely recommend!
I am the mother of the bride, I met Faith at a wedding event with my daughter and son-in-law. I secretly asked Faith to help facilitate a "Surprise" for the Bride and Grooms Weddin...
g. She was very "On Top" of getting me to the right people and always answered my emails with-in a very timely manner. I really appreciated her help with the wedding surprise. It turned out beautifully. I would highly recommend Urbane Montage Events to anyone.
One of the best decisions that we made about our wedding was hiring Faith Folayan with Urbane Montage Events! Faith is amazing!!! Faith and her team helped Shane and I with day-of ...
wedding planning and did a fantastic job! We really enjoyed working with Faith and highly recommend her for day-of wedding planning! She made everything go off without a hitch!
We truly mean it when we say that we could not have pulled the wedding off so flawlessly without her. The timeline she put together for us was perfect, and it made the wedding flow effortlessly. We can not even begin to tell you how many comments we’ve received from guests that said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to and that is due to all the hard work Faith put into. And more importantly, she took care of all the details, setting up for the reception, and executed them exactly how we wanted it to turn out. My husband and I would highly recommend her to any bride who wants to have a worry free wedding!
Thank you again Faith for such an amazing and wonderful day. We can not thank you enough. The wedding and reception was a success! Thank you for giving us the best memories from our celebration that we will keep for a lifetime! It was wonderful working with you and your sister Susan. Many blessings and success to you always!
With great appreciation,
Paula and Shane
I have to say first that hiring Faith and Urbane Montage was the best decision I made about our wedding. I honestly don't think the day would have been nearly as wonderful had Fa...
ith not been involved. Everyone said to me that I was the least stressed out Bride they had ever seen and I attribute that to Faith's amazing attention to detail and knowledge.
We hired Faith as a day of planner and she turned out to be so much more. We planned with Faith they set up and look of our venue but had no idea what the turn out would be until we arrived that evening. I have to say...it was so much more amazing than I could have dreamed. Every detail I imagined was tended too.
I would absolutely recommend Faith and her team to any and everyone I can. She was always easy to get a hold of, accommodating with meetings and answered emails very quickly. Faith thought of so many things I would have forgotten. I could not be more impressed and thankful!
Where do i begin? Faith is simply amazing ! I am not sure what i would have done if i didnt have Urbane Montage on my day of wedding . Urbane Montage Events managed my wedding from...
the week of to the day of the actual wedding . She understood my imagination and made it real . I truly believe that Faith can be at two places at once if such thing is possible . For example , I had seen her right before we got in the limo heading to church , and as soon as i got out and was going to question where the guys boutonnieres were , i turned around and the bouts were pinned on their suit. Mind you , we the bridal party had originally forgot these boutonnieres at the hotel room we got ready in . My entire wedding was a complete DIY and Faith was truly a life saver. The Hilton ballroom looked more beautiful than my husband and i imagined . As a surprise to us, Faith even decorated our wedding night suite with the prettiest rose petals i have ever seen ! Faith did such an amazing job , i will always recommend her to everyone in need of an event management and coordination . I truly believe that i had a friend who had my back and wanted me to enjoy my day !
Faith , see you in 5 years for our wedding anniversary !
I had a great time at the wedding. Faith and her team tended to the details and to everyone. Everything flowed smoothly; the couple was happy and as guests we had FUN! I highly r...
ecommend Faith; her thoroughness is commendable.
Faith did an amazing job! I was under some awful circumstances with my venue, and she saved the day! She is quick to respond, smart, and fun. I would higly recommend Faith for y...
