W.E.D

Lynn. Throughout the process she made both of us feel so supported and like we were in really good hands. The level of care and attention made us feel like our wedding was her only priority during an exceptionally busy year for weddings. Lynn expertly navigated so many facets of the day and remembered all of the details. She got us a Saturday in 2022! She literally saved the day (twice that I can count, and probably more ways that I wasn’t even privy to.) Lynn advocated for us, asked clarifying questions and pressed some issues with vendors to be sure we were covered. She is a really clear communicator and was direct. We also got a ton of compliments on the music and the way Matt managed the dance floor energy. Everyone had so much fun! Thank you for accommodating all of our music requests. We also really appreciated Matt’s quick thinking to do the photo race through with the tables when We were feeling too overwhelmed and tired to talk to everyone. The event was beautiful, we both had such an exceptional time. Our only complaint is that it went by so fast! Thank you to Lynn and Matt for throwing us such a great party and helping us celebrate one of the most important days of our lives. We couldn’t have done any of this without you!

. She gives you access to an amazing program called Aisle Planner that helps keep everything organized and in one place. On the day of the wedding Lynn saved the day after my florist (one I hired) dropped off a hot mess of flowers. All in all, Lynn was wonderful throughout the entire wedding planning process and on the day off.

only is so incredibly knowledgeable, but she is warm and fun too. Whether I wanted her opinion on style choices or how to navigate interesting family dynamics, she was always there to provide honesty and support. I am so incredibly thankful for Lynn because she is the reason I was able to get ready and walk down the aisle with next to no worries- I knew that whatever happened, she would be there to handle it. And now because of her, I get to look back at the process and the wedding day with so much happiness in my heart.

or us as she has extensive experience and knowledge of local contacts to help us clarify our plans. Our wedding day could not have been better. We have no regrets. Lynn met with us multiple times in advance, spoke with our vendors, was very organized and truly took the stress out of our wedding day. One of Lynn’s many qualities is that she listens and follows through. An example is she made sure there was warm water and honey for me to drink at the reception, as I tend to lose my voice when talking a lot. On our wedding day she was on task but discreet, and there whenever needed. We highly recommend Lynn Lucas and W.E.D.

etc. My now wife and I said that the main thing we both wanted out of our wedding was to be able to look back on it in the future and focus on what an amazing day it was, not about how stressful it was. If you and you're parnter feel the same, you should highly consider W.E.D.

nation up to the wedding was great and the pricing was affordable. On the day of my wedding, nobody showed up. I called and Lynn seemed almost confused as to who I was or why I was calling. I was called back shortly after and was told that Matt was having car troubles. What I cannot understand is why Lynn hadn’t called as soon as she had known. Somehow he managed to “go back home and switch cars.” How one does that when their car isn’t working is beyond me. I wish that I could believe car troubles were the truth but when Matt finally arrived two hours late he was dressed in a t-shirt and cargo shorts (NOT okay for a wedding). From my perspective they forgot about my wedding. In short, this business ruined the wedding I had been planning for so long. I can’t just do it all over again. I’d rather not have my photographer show up. With no DJ to facilitate what was going on, I, the bride, with no microphone or speakers, had to “host” my wedding. By the time Matt arrived everyone was so bored and confused that they started leaving. In the end, I did receive a prompt refund which I appreciate. However, this level of miscommunication cannot be ignored and to this day I’m still quite irked. I know that they, “felt awful,” but that’s just not enough. My special day was ruined by this business.

nts. Not kidding, ZERO complaints. It is not very often that people can get to the end of the night and say "I wouldn't have changed a single thing." My wife and I look back at our wedding and that is what we are left with. Not one thing we would have wanted to change. Now, I have no idea if the team at W.E.D had any chaos or frustration, because they never told us and I'd argue that is how it should be on your wedding day. They handled everything for us and it was truly perfect. Now, to add a few other details for anyone who might be like me. I did not think we needed a wedding planner. It seemed like a waste of money, but my wife disagreed. I wasn't so excited about meetings either. I am probably a little too "go with the flow" for the average person, especially a team like W.E.D that needs to know every detail, but I am just being real. Hiring W.E.D was simply to make sure my wife felt good going into the wedding. That said, despite having to change wedding dates due to COVID, despite going from a small wedding (state mandate), to all of a sudden everything is lifted and now we can invite our entire wedding list, W.E.D was excellent. They managed to juggle changes for other couples, were clear that communication would occasionally be later than expected, because June/July 2021 became mass chaos in the industry. We got married on July 17th and despite everything W.E.D was going through, they made our day absolutely perfect and once again, my wife was right! Even if you are on the fence, hire a wedding planner. I'll take that one more step and say hire W.E.D. Lynn and I have complete opposite personalities which was SO needed. She came through in every way you can imagine and I cannot thank her enough. Lynn, thanks for making me a believer in hiring a planner for significant events, like our wedding. Thank you for your patience as we tried to figure out what would make a perfect day for us. And, lastly, thank you for giving us the day that we dreamed of. Cheers!

became a vow renewal and had to be pushed back a year, helped us find a bakery, and was just all around essential to what we needed. The actual ceremony went wonderfully and smoothly thanks to her. She made everything easier, and we are SO grateful to her! We already have recommended her to our friends and they're not even getting married yet. =D

or have the wedding but face limits on guests, mandates etc. To add to this stress, we ( the bride’s parents) live in a different state than the bride and groom, and both groups of us lived in a different state from the wedding site , Grand Rapids Michigan!! Lynn was recommended to me by our reception venue. She was not flustered that none of us were living in Michigan even though that wrinkle caused me great stress! Lynn was wonderful- clearly an expert in her field. She kept us informed, checked on us, held multiple Zoom meetings, and did everything she was supposed to do and even more. She also did our floral arrangements for the wedding and they were just perfect! My daughter was thrilled with how perfect everything was on her special day. We can’t Thank Lynn enough. Services: day of coordination and florist.

lso did decor, and it was exquisite. I got so many compliments on the floral arrangements! Thank you!

demic she was constantly checking on us and keeping contact. The planning process was easy and professional. Lynn even used some of my fonts that I specially wanted for decorations because I can get a little picky about that which I appreciated! Now to the day of… I literally didn’t have one concern during my wedding day and actually had the opportunity to truly enjoy it and that’s the greatest service/gift I could’ve ever hoped for. Lynn kept us organized, on task, and even helped me breathe through my anxiousness. If you’re a type of bride that just wants to have things taken care of and trust that it’s done right… W.E.D is 100% the way to go.

everything would be taken care of. Much appreciated!

r our wedding was absolutely gorgeous and we can't imagine not having her day of coordinator services. She made the stress of planning a wedding during COVID so much better. Everything was just perfect for our big day, and Lynn and her husband Matt played a key role in the success of it all. They went above and beyond! Thank you, Lynn!!!

on planning a wedding. Lynn worked with us throughout the entire process and helped us plan our dream wedding...AND THEN, Covid happened! Our dream wedding was large AND indoors, which was no longer allowed under the pandemic rules. In two months we had to cancel/reschedule all our vendors from Wedding #1 and completely plan a new, smaller wedding in our backyard. Lynn was INVALUABLE during this switch. She set up all the new vendors (tents, restroom trailer, food truck, etc.), rescheduled our old vendors, and helped us plan a wedding that wasn't our original vision, but was still gorgeous! There is no way we could have pulled off an entirely new wedding plan in two months without her help and support. The whole experience of planning a new wedding that was not our original vision in two months was an insanely stressful process which I wouldn't wish on anyone, BUT if you have to do it I would definitely recommend using Lynn! I can't wait to work with her again for our vow renewal!

once my COVID delayed wedding had to be moved outdoors and I was struggling with my vision of the day and how to have it in a tent (never my plan). Lynn was full of wonderful suggestions and support in creating my vision. She helped me connect with vendors for linens and design details and provided many items we were able to rent from her (custom signs, card box, etc) all while working in my budget. She also was extremely helpful in navigating COVID laws and regulations as they changed throughout our planning. We had many calls leading up to the day that helped me feel on track with my planning and reduce my stress. Lynn is very calming and organized, from the moment I had my first call with her I knew I didn't have to worry about anything falling through the cracks. Knowing she was there on the day of the event to have everything run smoothly was the direct reason I was able to enjoy our wedding without constantly wondering if details were being taken care of. Lynn was easily the best investment I made throughout our wedding process! Bonus: she also has an incredibly intuitive online website/program to keep to-do lists, budget, guest list, vendors, notes, etc organized and accessible on your laptop or phone.

sion a reality. Thanks to Lynn, my wedding day was perfect! Weddings are stressful in general to plan and when you add a pandemic into the mix, it makes it nearly impossible. I'm so thankful a fellow bride told me about Lynn and her company W.E.D. Lynn is truly one of the best in all things wedding planning. You can tell that wedding coordination is her passion and her expertise is unmatched. She picked up on my style quickly, offered an amazing planning software that was easy to use, and was well versed on wedding etiquette. With the Pandemic hitting, she was always there to inform me on planning changes that needed done based off of the ever-changing Executive Orders in our state. Lynn went above and beyond at every turn- I hired Lynn for day of coordination, but she also helped me draw up an itinerary for the rehearsal dinner to keep us on track. Thank you for taking care of all the details that allowed us to fully enjoy the day without having to worry about a thing. If you are looking for an extremely diligent, organized, and professional wedding day coordinator with a passion for her clients, then I would strongly encourage you to contact W.E.D. We invest so much time, energy and money into the planning process, and Lynn will be the final step in making sure that your dreams come to life. Thank you Lynn for helping us plan the wedding of our dreams!

orm, it looked like night time at 10AM, it was awful. I stayed in the getting ready room to stay relaxed, but my entire family was absolutely amazed with how quick she was on her feet, how hard working she was, and how dedicated to her work she was. You will not find another planner who is as passionate, kind, and amazing as Lynn. She made the planning process easy, I did not feel overwhelmed, and she coordinated everything with me beautifully. Matt was an AMAZING officiant and DJ. I was beyond glad I was able to book both Matt and Lynn for almost half of our vendors. Matt played the perfect songs, he energized our guests and kept things moving and flowing beautifully. Long story short, BOOK W.E.D. You will thank yourself later.

e time to put together our dream wedding the day of and needed to hire someone that we could trust that would get it done in the way we wanted it done. SHE DID AN AMAZING JOB! Our wedding was absolutely gorgeous and we received compliments from almost everyone that is was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to!! Read on for more specifics: I did most the work on putting together our vision ( this was not her job as we were only hiring her for our day of coordinator) and shared all this information with her either via email or print outs at our meetings. I am very organized and if you choose to go this route then you need to be also if you want your wedding to go without a hitch. I created outlines of each area of our wedding on what the decor will look like. In my opinion, she wont fully understand what you're trying to explain to her since she's not in your head and can't tell what you're thinking. These outlines included pictures and short descriptions of what our vision looked like. Help her help you. I purchased all the decor, with the exception of the backdrops for both ceremony and reception which we rented from her and they looked absolutely amazing. There was a lot of stuff! And I do mean a lot of decor for her to deal with and handle. Google winter wonderland weddings and you'll see for yourself. They are not easy to pull off and require A LOT of work. I put the decor together as much as I could prior to delivering the boxes to our venue. I also labeled the boxes and each of the boxes was organized according to what area they were being used at. For example: photo booth area, head table, centerpieces, dessert table, ceremony, ect. She does not have time if she is doing a lot of work to organize thru a mess of stuff that you may have. If you go the route we did then you need to keep in mind you are hiring her for day of services only. If you expect more then pay her for more. She arrived the night before the wedding to start set up. It took her that night and much of the day of the wedding to get our decor done. This may sound like a long time however, she is very meticulous to detail (which you want for your wedding) and makes sure everything looks as good as possible. Even going as far to steam the backdrop areas AFTER they were set up. I gave her full rein on any last minute decisions as I knew things come up that I would not be able to predict. She did wonderful knowing what our vision was and making the right calls. FYI-she is up front and has a strong personality. I can see how this may come off as rude with people of different personalities. I too have a similar personality as she and was worried that at times we may clash. We did not. I explained my thoughts to her thoroughly and professionally so there would not be any confusion on anything. She communicated well with us throughout the entire process and was professional. You will not find this level of expertise anywhere else for this price. Bottom line, she is not there to be your best friend, you are hiring her to do a job and she needs to be given the proper tools to do her job. SHE WILL GET HER PART OF THE JOB DONE. As long as you do your part she will do hers. Hire her, she awesome and will not disappoint you!

the accountability, and the best shoulder to lean on for all details. Her attention to detail is impeccable!! Sometimes I thought she knew my vision more than I did! We could not say enough good things about Lynn, and her wonderful husband! They turned our day into something that exceeded all of our wildest dreams ♥️

to pay her anymore money? I did all the work for my wedding, setting up appointments, finding vendors, etc. We hired her husband as our dj (of course she pushed this before we decided on him or any dj. Telling us she thought we’d hit it off with him.) and her daughter for the photo booth at that point so we felt like after talking with her about our concerns regarding her as a wedding planner, we would continue to use her as she promised things would go differently from that point on. Things did not go differently and when I thought she would be worth it/make up for what she didn’t do throughout the planning process, she’d make up for at the wedding, well I was wrong and she didn’t. I won’t go into to many details as there is so many. For example, I bought votive candles and holders that she told my Aunt she was not putting out because the candles messed with her allergies 😂. Umm last I checked that’s not your call. You worked for me, therefore in a sense I’m the boss, so if I bought something for my wedding, you have no right to say you won’t put them out. She has an attitude out of this world especially when you don’t go with what she wants or her vision. Good luck to anyone who wants to work with her but I definitely recommend not doing so!

ns and hair and makeup appointments, all staying within our budget. I can't imagine doing the wedding without her. The floral arrangement were outstanding, and the place cards were provided by Lynn also. She sent spread sheets with details and up to date schedules of what needed to to be done. Her husband was the officiant and worked closely with my daughter to include the thoughts she found meaningful. I would highly recommend Lynn for your wedding. She provides a complete service and was the last person to leave our reception! The BEST!

d a great job reading the room and keeping people on the dance floor! At the end of the night, people were chanting "one more song" because they were having such a good time! :D He definitely kept the party going strong, without making it feel like a club. The only reason why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that sometimes it was a little tricky to hear what people were saying for speaking announcements, but the volume/sound quality of the music itself was fine. Overall, we're very pleased with the quality and value of W.E.D. DJ service!

, with no questions asked. She is brilliant! We also hired her husband for our DJ. He was also wonderful! He knew how to keep the guests on the dance floor. I highly recommend hiring them both!😊

staying on track and making sure I had everything done. There was so many little things I didn’t even think of that she made sure to mention. If you haven any questions on how to do any of it she knows the answer. I had so much fun the day of the wedding knowing that she was there to take care of any of our needs or any problems that may have popped up. She even went and picked up our late night pizzas and brought them back for us. Matt was also awesome. He did such a great job DJ’ing. He played great music all night and kept the dance floor packed. He knows what he is doing and you can tell. You’re in good hands if you hire these two.

or our reception.

wesome!

re as out DOC for our rehearsal and the big day, he was the best! Everything ran smoothly (that he could control) and looked beautiful! THANK YOU W.E.D, you made our day that much more special!

From my initial inquiry email to our big day she was professional and thorough and I'm not sure we could have pulled everything off without her! Through our meetings leading up to the wedding she brought up so many things that I hadn't even thought of and she was so flexible with everything that we wanted! Lynn served as the perfect point person on our wedding day. I was able to sleep the night before knowing that everything would be taken care of. I highly recommend Lynn to anyone searching for that perfect person to ensure your day runs smoothly and stress free (or your entire wedding planning process). My only wish was that I had hired her sooner! Thank you for everything Lynn!!

my wedding is done, the fact I was going to attempt the day without a coordinator doesn't seem possible! For the decor I did end up going with - it was beautiful! They had a great selection, and Lynn worked with what I wanted (aka my pinterest board) and had a ton of options to choose from! Our ceremony was beautiful, and exactly as I envisioned it. As for day of coordinating services... WOW! So. Worth. It. Lynn made the day run ENTIRELY smoothly - from being there with us at our rehearsal the night before, to setting up the decor the morning the day of and working with all my other vendors for me, and to actually making the ceremony and reception go perfect too, I have no idea how she did it! We also experienced a major issue with our shuttle service that Lynn completely took care of! Even throughout the night, she just ensured myself and my husband were having a great time and would confirm any information with us/venue (i.e. bringing pizza out earlier, when running low on wine, etc.). It truly was a pleasure working with Lynn and I could not recommend her enough. As an out of town bride all I could do was rely on other reviews and I was not at all disappointed! Also as a bride, in my early planning process I completely underestimated the need for a day of coordinator and now I am SO glad I got one. This is your day, and dealing with vendors, decorations, problems that pop up, etc. is not something you will want to do. Enjoy your day, and trust Lynn!!! Thank you so much Lynn!

ad such a great time at our wedding, and the music was a huge part of that. They were also so helpful and easy to work with throughout the wedding planning process. I would definitely recommend Matt and Lynn for and wedding or event you are planning. Thank you!

e. Lynn made it possible. She was everything I could have asked for. I felt lucky because of her I was truly able to enjoy my day and look back with no regrets. She went above and beyond including sewing my dress 30 minutes before walking down the isle!! Brides, if you are looking to enjoy your day and take in every last part, Lynn is a necessity.

ome of the songs played. He was accommodating when it came to a birthday surprise for our friend. He help me surprise my new mother in law with song she wanted to dance to. It was a perfect night! Thank you Matt!

o extremely helpful and kind. I feel like she was not only our wedding planner but also a dear friend and a HUGE support system throughout the stressful moments of planning. She went out of her way to sit down with my husband and I to go over every detail of the wedding for the months leading up to the big day! I received so many compliments after my wedding on how organized, relaxed, and professional the day was and I credit that to Lynn. It was an honor to work with her and I will refer her to many of my friends and acquaintances! Thank you Lynn, for making our big day so PERFECT! We are endlessly grateful!!!

ng Lynn there really eased our anxiety about the day. Our meetings with her leading up to the wedding were extremely thorough and she really made sure that we were on top of everything that we needed to be to ensure that everything would go as smoothly as possible, and it did. We paid a bit extra to have her set up our dessert display and I honestly wish we would have just gone the extra mile and hired her for the full wedding package. She did such a phenomenal job with the display. It totally exceeded my expectations and ended up being a really big hit at the wedding. Everyone was extremely impressed. Needless to say you can't go wrong if you choose W.E.D. to help plan your big day.

anted, but was able to make it much more than we could have ever imagined. Walking into the venue before the ceremony, we were speechless at the beauty and attention to detail. With the Décor service, we did not have to worry about set-up or take-down the day of the wedding, which reduced the stress of the day immensely. Her extensive collection gave us lots of different options for table settings, signage, and any other décor we needed. Lynn was always flexible with our meetings, even willing to meet in the evenings. With the Day of Coordination, if something unplanned occurred during the ceremony or reception, we would have never known it. The day before our wedding, our officiant was unexpectedly unable to attend the wedding, and Lynn found us a replacement that same day. This is the type of impeccable service that you will receive when utilizing any service from W.E.D. Lynn and Matt take such pride in their work, and are so invested in the weddings they help plan, that by the time the day shows up they feel like part of the family. We cannot thank W.E.D. enough for helping us to have the most beautiful wedding day that we could have ever imagined.

a mile to make sure your event is unique and stress-free. I will never use another decorator!

ped us think of things that we never would have thought of on our own. We absolutely loved working with Lynn and would reccommend her to any of our friends string married in the future!

e caterer, chairs, linens, flowers, decorations, cake, bar and even the ice! Lynn is extremely organized, reliable and creative. She assisted with making all the plans. On the day of the wedding Lynn was the point person for all the vendors and she made sure everything was done so that the bridal party and families could relax and enjoy the day without worrying about details. At every wedding there is always something that "goes wrong" and Lynn fixed all the little problems. We could not have pulled this together without her! Thank you Lynn!!!!

sota, so planning an out of state wedding is very difficult. It was nice knowing Lynn had connections with these people, and everyone was so nice and professional. As the bride, I felt like there were never ending decisions that needed to be made. Occasionally conversations felt stressful, as I think Lynn is SO knowledgeable with everything, and I didn't know much about planning events like this....so we weren't always on the same page. However, it was helpful having someone there, to listen to my desires, and somehow find a way to make it all work within our budget. When all is said and done, everything turned out wonderful! When it came to decor, that's where I really appreciated Lynn's expertise. She truly made my dream a reality. I remember walking into our reception room for the first time, and thinking, "This is SO pretty, is this really our room?!" . I couldn't stop smiling and looking around at all of the details. She even purchased some new pieces because she thought they fit my vision. It was wonderful to have her set-up and take-down decor services as well. My family and I were able to fully enjoy our day. Lastly, we used Matt for our DJ services. He was great, and kept the dance floor going all night! It's so fun looking through our wedding photos, with everyone dancing and seeing the happiness!! I recommend Lynn and Matt, -and appreciate everything they do!

nn was super accommodating, sweet, professional and always quick to respond. Matt was a fantastic DJ! He was prompt and fun and truly made our wedding day special. Bonus points for having a nice little black umbrella which he was kind enough to let us use for pictures outside since it was raining. Matt was professional and fun! We were worried about having a DJ that was tacky, but Matt was completely the opposite. He was so professional, helpful and kept the dance floor full all night! He even got an encore at the end of the night! I would absolutely recommend W.E.D to anyone looking for a great, professional DJ for any event. Thank you Lynn and Matt!!

my wife and to me that was priceless. I couldn't thank her enough and I couldn't recommend her more to any couple aspiring for some stress relief in their wedding planning!

cial place in my heart, and they know why! As a bride you will have a lot of things going on, and I was so glad all I had to do was show up to my wedding and see the wonderful decor!! We love you guys!! And will see you soon at some of our pals weddings!!

s best for the wedding, decor and how we wanted to do things. She did give a lot of tips and advice that were very helpful but she sometimes took over with what she thought was right not what we wanted or with what fit in our budget. I did most of the planning and work myself, almost seemed like we didn't need to hire her at all but in the end I'm glad we did. Matt did a great job as our DJ. The music was fun and he played everything we wanted. Was good about making sure he played what we wanted and knew our taste in music.

t MSU's Conservatory, but Matt has been at the venue and knew everything I didn't! He kept the music going at just the right volume and pace, and got everyone on the dance floor! We had special request music, and some high-maintenance requests and he made everything happen. He knows when to ask the Bride or Groom questions on the Big Day, and when to make the calls. He is friendly, organized, and knows his stuff! I had so many people tell me they thought it was the best wedding music that had heard. I couldn't believe how affordable it was for such a professional service. I would 100% recommend Matt!!
