I cannot say enough amazing things about Weddings With a Twist and specifically, Julia. I hired this team as my day-of coordinator and couldn't be happier that I did. I was the bride who thought she wanted to handle everything herself until 8 weeks before the wedding when the realization of all the little "day-of" things set-in. I called Weddings With a Twist and had a call with Julia a few short days later. I knew immediately I wanted to work with her and it was the best decision I made in this entire planning process. They took care of everything that was giving me anxiety, timelines, vendor coordination, during the day-of tasks. Because of this, it was the most perfect, stress-free day. Thank you SO so much, Julia! I can't imagine the day without you now. If you're a bride, like me, who ended up NOT wanting to be the manager of that day, this is your team. You will be so thankful you did!

Julia and Trina did an amazing job with our wedding! We hired them as coordinators (we had already planned the majority of the wedding at this point) and they made the day SO easy for us. My husband and I didn't have to think about or follow up on anything all day and everything went PERFECTLY! It was also important to us that our family didn't have to spend the day organizing or executing any of our plans; they got to enjoy the day and be present with us and the rest of our family because of the awesome work Julia and Trina did for us! Hiring them was definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

Julia from Weddings with a Twist was our day of/month of coordinator and she and her assistant did an amazing job! She was extremely responsive whenever we had questions and was a joy to work with. Our wedding went smoothly and she made sure we were taken care of on the day. Even when there was a miscommunication from one of our vendors for take down she found a solution without having to discuss with us and it all worked out perfectly. I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a day of coordinator for your wedding!

Julia with weddings with a twist was the best decision I made for my wedding! She made everything so easy for me the month before and on my wedding day. I felt so at ease on my wedding day knowing that she was at the venue. Just genuinely a joy to work with and so detail-oriented. I will honestly miss corresponding with her. There were so many little things with my vendor timelines that she caught if there was a discrepancy. I owe my sanity to her the last month of my wedding. Thank you for just being amazing Julia- you are so incredible at what you do!

Krista and her team at Weddings With A Twist are the absolute best! They are very detail oriented and helped me with every step of wedding planning. I really appreciated all of their planning resources and checklists to make sure that I wasn’t forgetting about anything. Krista helped me see the vision of the wedding by sending mock up photos of the wedding details and layouts which was great. We loved how the entire day turned out and have gotten so many compliments about how beautiful everything was and how smoothly the day was run. Krista and her team are so friendly and made wedding planning less stressful. They handled any surprise that came up throughout the day and set up the reception space beautifully. We are so happy we worked with Weddings With A Twist and would recommend them to everyone!

I am so grateful to weddings with a twist! It is a very scary thought to imagine what my wedding would have been like without them. Emily was our coordinator, and she solved all the problems I was up at night worrying about and all the problems I never would have anticipated. My venue was a nightmare to work with, all the staff I had talked to (event management, bar manager) at my venue quit over the course of my engagement and no one told me. The venue promised a day of coordinator included in the package (never saw them), but thank god our photographer recommended getting an outside planner. I got the cheapest package and wasn’t expecting much but starting 6 weeks out she handled all communication with vendors, handled every issue that came up, honestly saved my wedding. Day of she set up not only all of my decorations but placed my florals as well! This is not something they normally do but she did for me at no extra charge, and in all of an hour as we did our ceremony and reception in the same space so we had a super short flip during cocktail hour. For a very small extra fee they also handled the entire cleanup process! Honestly if I’d known how much they would do I probably would have paid them twice what they charged. I regret not getting one of there more complete packages because planning this wedding was so stressful and a lot of pain could have been avoided if I had Emily in my life sooner. In conclusion, highly recommend!

My husband and I knew we needed help planning our big day, including both design support and day of coordination. Upon talking with a few local Milwaukee planners, we quickly hired Krista and team from Weddings with a Twist. Not only did we feel Krista understood and could support our needs, we also just got a great feeling from her! We worked with Krista to refine our vision for the big day and select a few vendors for various rentals, and most importantly an amazing florist in the area. It was so amazing having Krista by our side to make some big decisions, and even just run a few ideas by her along the way. With over 10 years of experience in the industry, we felt we were in such great hands. Krista showed us she truly cared about making our day as unique and special as we wanted it to be, and she proved that wholeheartedly when we got into some planning discussions leading up to the big day. She asked all the right questions and made the most AMAZING timeline I've ever seen in my life. It was interactive too so we could engage with Krista "offline," so to speak, in between meetings as we continued to tinker with our overall timing and flow for the big day. We appreciated Krista's support on everything end-to-end and frankly wouldn't have been able to pull off a 200+ person wedding without her! Thanks to Krista's expertise, we were also provided access to some amazing vendor recommendations, dos and don'ts for planning, a very robust checklist, and so much more to help keep us on track. All to say, if you are in need of an amazing support team to plan your wedding - CHOOSE WEDDINGS WITH A TWIST! You won't regret it.

Choosing wedding with a twist was a no brainer after seeing there work for my sisters wedding. We chose the wedding management package, Krista was the biggest help the month leading up to our wedding and incredible on our wedding day! If you’re on the fence about a wedding coordinator/day of coordinator, do it and choose wedding with a twist. They will make sure everything looks beautiful, is exactly how you want it, and your day goes as smoothly as possible! I can’t speak highly enough about Krista and Laura! Thank you!

Julia, and her assistant Trina, were wonderful for a "month of" coordinator. Julia reached out to me initially with a phone call and was very helpful in walking through the timeline and day I had created with my photographer. Julia helped with all the other vendors in the days leading up to the wedding, ensuring everyone would be there on time. Upon arriving to the venue while we were doing photographs, Julia and Trina were helpful in any finishing touches and organizing everyone to make sure everything was set up for the ceremony. Right after the ceremony, they were by my husband and my side, got us a drink, and ensured the rest of the timeline flowed smoothly, from cocktail hour, to our first dance, to getting dinner started with the toasts, and finally a surprise dance my husband's family had prepared for him. Definitely recommend!

Krista, the owner of Weddings With A Twist the an absolute dream of a wedding planner. We started working with WWAT in January of 2022 for our 2023 September wedding and Krista was there for every step. She made the wedding planning process seamless and handled all the communication with other vendors. She made the overwhelming task of planning a large wedding as easy as it can be, even when she went on maternity leave, her assistant stepped in and was completely up to date on every single thing Krista and I had been discussing. WWAT is very organized and thorough, they made us our own personalized wedding website that kept track of our budget, vendor contracts, mood board, and more. Krista was always easy to get ahold of and very flexible willing to move her schedule around to accomodate ours. During wedding weekend, I was stress free knowing that Krista was going to be present the entire wedding and handling all of the set up so that myself, my husband, and my family could all be present with us and not busy setting the venue up. She also took the time to know us on a personal level, so we did not just feel like clients to her. We cannot recommend WWAT enough, she made two people who really did not want a wedding very very grateful we ended up having one, because the day was absolute perfection! Our wedding was so seamless, my best friend who recently got engaged booked with Krista the day after our wedding because she wanted the same experience we had!!

A friend recommended I hire a day of coordinator and it was the best advice I got in regards to planning my wedding. Julia was beyond excellent to work with. She made my day stress free and I could not have done it without her. From setting up my personal decorations on the wedding day to reaching out to my vendors in the weeks leading up, she took care of it all. She was easy to communicate with and followed up in a timely manner. I cannot recommend Julia from Weddings With A Twist enough and will forever be grateful that she was a part of my day.

We had a last second debacle with the venue a few weeks before the wedding and it made me realize I needed a day of coordinator to help with logistics for the big day since I had lost a bit of faith in the venue. Krista and Emily were fortunately available and did an amazing job putting together a timeline, contacting the vendors, working to ensure everything was organized and timely for the day of and they were so incredibly kind and fun to work with!! Highly recommend their services!

They made me feel super relaxed and truly made me feel like I could focus on the day because they had everything covered. We would recommend them to anyone!

We had an incredible experience with Julia and her assistant from Weddings with a Twist! Julia worked with us the month leading up to our wedding - connecting via zoom to go over timelines, contacting vendors on our behalf and just overall be an extra relief! Our wedding day could not have gone any smoother and if you’re considering an event coordinator, definitely recommend Julia and the entire team at Weddings with a Twist!

JULIA IS YOUR GIRL!!
We just got married on 8/19/23, but hired Julia with Weddings with a Twist in February of 2023. At the 6 month meeting with my venue, I was left feeling overwhelmed and stressed out - I KNEW I needed to hire someone to handle all of the things I couldn't. My biggest stressor was the wedding day timeline - I didn't know where to start or how to put things in an order that made sense. Therefore, I reached out to Weddings with a Twist and Julia contacted me saying she was available - thank goodness!
Julia was great right from the get-go. She asked me questions about things I hadn't thought of and she gave me her kind thoughts and opinions on what other brides have done when I was completely lost. I was not familiar of the logistics of weddings and I am so happy Julia was there to guide me along.
On our wedding day, everything went SO smoothly. I got lots of compliments on how everything flowed and there is not one thing I would have changed. The day was absolutely perfect and if there was anything that went wrong, nobody told me about it lol.
Overall, if you need a pro who will give you peace of mind, HIRE JULIA - look no further :)

We were so happy we chose Weddings With a Twist and Krista was wonderful from start to finish, she even had a baby midway through our planning and no one missed a beat! I am the mother of the bride and would never have felt so relaxed that day if it wasn’t for Krista and her team. She has a very calming approach to everything and makes you feel like you have not a thing to worry about. We had less than a year to plan our wedding and every suggestion they had was beyond helpful. Thank you so much Krista!

It's hard for me to write a negative review about Weddings With A Twist because our coordinator was a very sweet person. However, I think others should know that our expectations didn't quite match what we ended up receiving in terms of services. We hired Weddings With A Twist for day of coordination services, meaning they would begin helping us 4 weeks or so ahead of the wedding. To put it plainly, what was provided didn't quite match the investment made. Leading up to the wedding, I felt like I hardly heard from our coordinator and I felt like I had to initiate checking in a lot on my own. She did reach out to our vendors and remind them of timelines, but they all sort of knew that info already. It was nice to have someone double check though.
On the day of the wedding, our coordinator wasn't keeping us on track with a timeline or checking in with us. I only saw her a few times, and there were definitely moments we could've used someone coordinating people and timelines for us. We were 30 mins late for our first dance (no one reminded us and we got caught up), coordinating family for photos was left on us and things like collecting vendor tips which were meant to be her responsibility were forgotten until I remembered. All things that we feel an organized coordinator should be doing for us.
The best part of the service was having help taking down all the decor at the end of the night, which we appreciated but did have to pay hundreds of extra dollars for and we ended up helping.
It could have been a fluke experience but we honestly walked away not feeling like it was worth the investment as we took on a lot of the coordination and timeline management ourselves.
Vendor response 09/12/2023
Hi Ali, This is obviously not the outcome we desire and we hate that you're feeling this w...
ay. Our contract clearly states all of the services we provide and we feel that we did in fact provide all of them. As wedding coordinators a lot of the work we do happens behind the scenes and can go unnoticed (and our goal is that it DOES go unnoticed because we want the wedding couple to enjoy their day and not deal with logistics). Based on what you told us was important to you, we made sure to prioritize those items. If there were other services you wanted, we wish you would've clearly communicated those to us.
We truly love what we do and we put a lot of time and effort into making your wedding day special. We sent you an email to address this more specifically. If you have any other concerns please reach out to us directly.
Once again we stand behind the services we provide. We are glad you had such a beautiful wedding day and we wish you all the best.

Are you newly engaged and overwhelmed with the beast of a project that is planning a wedding? Do yourself and your partner a favor and hire Weddings With a Twist! I'm not exaggerating when I say that we were a happier, less stressed couple because of Krista and her team. Krista was with us every step of the way from venue tours and tastings to the take down at the end of our night. She's incredibly organized, kept us on track during planning, and her tools made everything straightforward. Most people who are getting married haven't done it before and it can be daunting to even know where to start- which vendors to book first, how to find them, keeping up with communication, organizing the information... I would absolutely hire WWAT to take care of all of that again. We had consultations about our vision for each vendor and then options that fit our style and budget just showed up in our inbox already vetted and with confirmed availability for our day. Like, are you kidding me?? Honestly, the best money spent on our wedding and their price was incredibly reasonable for all you get! I didn't have a voice the week of or morning of my wedding which would have been a crisis if we didn't have Krista! She was there and worked with every vendor, double checked that everything was ready as the day was coming up, and the day of I didn't have to lift a finger. You have no idea how nice it was to have someone who takes care of EVERYTHING and just takes you to where you need to be and when. I can't recommend them enough- hire them and then take a breath. They've got this so you don't have to!

I would not have survived without Weddings With A Twist! First of all, they are so organized and on top of everything. I was never worried about little details or that there was something being forgotten. Everything was so planned out ahead of time so there was no stress on my wedding day! I have to give Krista a huge shout out. My fiancé was in a bad motorcycle accident and we had to reschedule our wedding. Krista quickly talked with all of the vendors and made sure that she was their point of contact to give us space. Without us even asking, she got availability for all of our vendors and had dates available for a reschedule! This could have been a huge stressor and it was all avoided because of Krista’s knowledge, quick thinking, and organization. This was the best money I spent!!

Hiring Weddings With A Twist was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding!! We were so fortunate to work with Julia! She was amazing!! Before the wedding, she was so organized in helping me make sure I had all the details complete, creating and finalizing the timeline, communicating with all of my vendors, reminding me about things I didn't even think of and so much more! The night before, she ran the rehearsal, gathered all items such as table numbers, place cards, memory table items, guest book so that I didn't have to even think about it on the big day! On the wedding day, she met all the vendors, set up so many small detail items for us and again made sure everyone was where they needed to be at whatever time. She was so crucial to making our day perfect and we are so happy with our decision to hire Weddings with a Twist!

Krista was a dream come true to work with. I had a lot of anxiety throughout the wedding process about my vision coming together, but she kept me levelheaded and was always available via text or email to listen to my concerns (and rectify them)! She was also persistent in contacting vendors who were not as responsive in order to keep everything on schedule. Her talents and expertise really shined on the day of the wedding, when she assisted in setting up decor and coordinating with vendors before and after the ceremony. My vision for a celestial-themed wedding became reality and that would not have happened without Krista. She is the best in the business!

Weddings with a Twist was truly excellent to work with. The day went absolutely perfectly - nothing went wrong and if it did, Julia handled it without me knowing. There were a few tricky details that I was worried about and Julia took care of all of them. She was friendly, communicative, and detail-oriented. She found multiple issues with our timeline proactively so we could coordinate with vendors to fix them before the day of. And I was very worried we would forget things at the venue since there was a strict cut off policy but she made sure my helpers got every last thing. She was a calming presence and a joy to work with!!

We LOVED working with Weddings With a Twist for day-of coordination. We hired them because we did not want ourselves, or any of our family members, to feel like we had to work on the day of the wedding to set up decor and make sure all of the vendors were accounted for. They did not disappoint.
All of our reception decor was set up exactly how I envisioned it and at the end of the night, they packed everything away so organized and were very efficient. My parents were so grateful for the help of loading everything into their cars.
Krista and Laura kept everything running on time and even reminded us that we mentioned on our call wanting to do a table dash for photos, and they made it happen!
When we went out to take a few photos while cocktail hour was going on, it started drizzling. Laura showed up out of nowhere holding an umbrella for us which we were not expecting. It was so kind and that did not go unnoticed. She also made sure that our drinks were full and had them waiting at our table for dinner.
I will recommend WWAT to anyone planning a wedding. They are so kind and detail-oriented, and as a type A bride, I could completely let go and put my trust in them so we could enjoy our day.
Thank you again!

We hired Weddings With a Twist 6 weeks prior to the wedding. They were great to work with! Krista initially helped and than she brought in Trina to take over. Trina & Laura were both at the wedding, they helped set up everything & kept the ceremony / cocktails/ dinner on track. We wanted to be sure the band started on time & they did! Would highly recommend them!

My partner and I hired Weddings With a Twist because we had no idea where to start with planning a wedding. We worked with Krista for the planning portion and Julia on the wedding day. Krista located the perfect venue for us: something rustic and near a ton of nature. She also kept us on track with all the tasks and deadlines. Julia was attentive and incredibly helpful with the final preparations, but most importantly, was key to us running a successful wedding. There were so many day-of unknowns that came up and having Julia gave us the opportunity to fully enjoy the day and coast through it with no stressors. They also setup and cleaned up all the decorations (including our large arch). They went above and beyond and we highly recommend their services to any new couple!

Working with Krista was an absolute pleasure. Initially we hired her to help with the day of coordination and management however, Covid through quite a wrench into our original plans but she was there to help me re-arrange and organize our perfect day. Every time I reached out to Krista with a question or an idea she always responded with thoughtful suggestions and answers that made me feel heard and supported. My wedding went by seamlessly and I had the best day of my life, thanks in part to Krista and her talents. Hands down I would hire Krista again to help manage an event; she was terrific!

Krista at Weddings With A Twist was hands down the best vendor I hired (out of MANY) for my wedding. She was communicative, responsive, organized, professional, fun and struck the perfect balance of listening to understand my vision for the day, and also infusing her endless knowledge on vendors and the wedding industry to ensure my vision came alive. My day went on seamlessly- in huge thanks to Krista. When there was a catering staffing issue, Krista immediately took care of it and leveraged her own staff to ensure everything got done. 10 out of 10 recommend hiring WWAT for your wedding day- it wouldn't have been a fraction of what it was without them. Thank you for everything, Krista!

Julia was phenomenal and I am forever grateful I was able to work alongside her for my wedding day. We had a lot of family drama occur within the last month of wedding planning and Julia was a pro and took so much extra planning and emails off my plate so I could focus on the family. She was very on top of vendor communications, timelines, day-of set up details and everything in between. The portal she sent over was incredibly informative and helped me stay on track with details, tips, and budgets. Our wedding day was a dream, and I am so glad we included the clean-up in our package too. Julia and Clare were a huge help ensuring we were out of our venue on time. I cannot recommend them enough!

We would highly recommend Krista and Weddings with a Twist! Krista did a great job communicating and staying on top of each step as we neared closer to our wedding day. She did a great job laying out road map of what needed to be done and the date that it needed to be done by.
On the day of the wedding she coordinated everything behind the scenes and ensured that the entire day went off without a hitch. It was great to have someone with so much experience and attention to detail. Wedding planning can be overwhelming, we would recommend using Weddings with a Twist to help alleviate stress and make your wedding day special.

I couldn't recommend Weddings with a Twist more highly! We hired Krista and Julia for (close to) their full service package, as we already had our venue and photographer. They gave so much invaluable advice and suggestions throughout the entire process, and it was such a relief to know that from start to finish - someone else was in charge who wasn't me. I only had a vague idea of what we were looking for, as I'm not a big wedding planning person, but every single recommended vendor we worked with was absolutely lovely. Julia made the month of planning a true breeze (given that we had a couple last minute Covid guest related hiccups that were preoccupying my time). We had the wedding of our dreams, and both my husband and I had SO much fun on the day of, and had absolutely zero worries because we knew Julia and her team had everything under control. 12/10 stars, would highly recommend Krista, Julia, and their team to anyone planning their upcoming wedding.

We were so glad we hired Weddings with a Twist for month-of coordination! It was a big relief to have Julia handling last-minute confirmations and details. Julia and her assistant were professional and organized and made sure our decor was set up, our wedding day stayed on track, and (especially important for us) cleanup was quick and successful after our grand exit. As an extremely hands-on and Type A bride, once Julia arrived I felt free to just relax and enjoy.
We did experience a minor miscommunication with our wedding party being directed to sit after walking down the aisle, which wasn't our plan - but we also elected to skip a rehearsal due to our weekday wedding date, so we found this understandable. Our ceremony was still beautiful!
We would definitely recommend Julia and Weddings with a Twist for excellent coordination, setup, and breakdown at a reasonable price point.

We used Weddings with a Twist for my daughters August 2021 wedding and they were a life saver! We had a very stressful experience with our venue but after Julia and Claire got involved the process was much smoother. Julia was very professional and detail oriented. She really listened to our concerns and and her knowledge of the wedding planning process was so valuable. Julia took over all communication with the venue which was a huge stress relief. During the month leading up to the wedding, I had multiple phone calls with Julia. She was extremely organized and eased our wedding day concerns. She took care of details like contacting our vendors and setting up a time line for our wedding day. Julia gave us guidance and advice on things I never would have thought of. On the day of wedding we didn't have to worry about ANYTHING. It was completely worth it to me to have the peace of mind to be able to enjoy that day.I would highly recommend Weddings With a Twist!

We booked a Wisconsin Elopement with Krista and her team and they did an amazing job! Krista made wedding planning/day of feel effortless!! Dana with Team Bride MKE did a great job making the morning hair and makeup go smoothly. Everyone looked stunning! Katie and Devin with Degroot Film Co did great with photos and videography! They found beautiful spots at Stone Ridge Farm Chapel to take pictures. They made it feel so easy to pose for pictures and kept us laughing throughout! My bouquet from Jane Kelly Floral was everything I wanted it to be. If you're looking to have a small wedding with exceptional vendors that work great together in the WI area, book an elopement with Weddings with a Twist!

Even before the wedding, she was in constant contact with us and our vendors. We would highly recommend Krista and her team for anyone looking for a coordinator.

We had Julia, Krista and Laura from Weddings With A Twist for our recent Re-scheduled Wedding Reception. As a Mother-of-the Bride this was the best decision I could have made. 18 months ago we started with Krista and she offered great ideas to assist us in the planning process. As many of the new Brides discovered, working things out during Covid could be a challenge. Having extremely qualified wedding planners made it seamless. The group is very professional and knowledgeable about what is needed to get things accomplished and allow the Bride and Groom as well as myself to fully enjoy the day while they handled every detail for us. Julia was fantastic in her follow-up with vendors a few weeks prior and up to the date of the wedding. I can’t say enough about how Julia and her co-assistant Laura took care of everything the day of the Reception. I highly recommend Weddings with a Twist.

I worked with Krista and her vendor partners through Weddings With a Twist for my "destination" elopement in Wisconsin. Since my husband and I do not live in Wisconsin, Krista was so helpful in providing local vendors for all other aspects of our wedding (venue, DJ, cake, decor, etc.). Additionally, the partners that Krista works with (hair/makeup, florist, photographer/videographer) were of high professionalism, flexible with our situation, and easy to work with. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding organizer and vendor team! Thank you for making my special day one to remember!

Krista was a life saver helping plan a wedding out of state in the middle of a pandemic. Krista connected me with some of the MOST amazing vendors. And not to mention that literally EVERY single vendor complimented Krista and told me I had picked the best wedding planner. Krista was very responsive, had amazing ideas, and kept me organized. I could not have had a more perfect wedding day, and most of it was due to Krista. She managed day of “surprises” that I could have never even planned for.

We loved working with Krista and Weddings With A Twist! We began working with Krista in April 2019 for our April 2021 wedding date. She was incredibly helpful in suggesting vendors and I had complete confidence that every vendor would be fantastic (and they were)! I appreciated her thoroughness as we went through the planning process as she had all the bases covered when I didn’t!
Krista was responsive with us and with all of the vendors and everything went off without a hitch! All of her careful planning lead to us running AHEAD of schedule, who can say that on their wedding day?? When we got to the venue, everything was setup perfectly and looked beautiful! It was such a relief to have that huge lift taken off our hands having been to many weddings where family/friends help to setup the venue. Everyone was able to really enjoy the day!
I would definitely recommend working with Krista and Weddings With A Twist! You will not regret it!

Working with Krista was an absolute blessing!

Krista was absolutely amazing to work with! We were so happy she was able to draw the right information out of us... we didn't really know how to vocalize what we wanted, since we weren't sure what all the different options could be! Krista was able to ask all the right questions and draw on her experience to create an absolutely beautiful wedding design that fit into the budget we wanted to work within. With all the craziness of Covid and the added stress for ANYONE involved in the wedding industry, it was so great having Krista to help coordinate things the day of so we could just sit back and enjoy our special day!

Krista is AMAZING and we loved working with her. We started working with Krista about 14 months before our wedding and she was so helpful in every step of the process. I have an extremely busy schedule, as does my husband, and she was so accommodating. She was able to arrange meetings with us after business hours and take our phone calls in the evenings. Krista worked with us on every step and was always available to come to vendor meetings and give great insight. She kept us on track and helped us with all of the contracts once we selected vendors. On the day of the wedding, things moved so smoothly and I know Krista was working hard behind the scenes to make that happen. I would absolutely recommend Weddings With A Twist, we are so happy with the services they provided.
