Working with Wolf and Bird has been a dream. It started with meticulous creativity and it evolved into a beautiful wedding day where the production was truly perfect. Her communication is beyond prompt and always kind and courteous. From the very beginning of the process to the end, Laura executed her timelines as well as handled different situations that arose. Designing and managing a wedding from beginning to end is a huge responsibility and we highly recommend Laura with Wolf and Bird.
There was not a detail or concern that was not met by this outstanding and professional team.
Emily and Laura, Wolf and Bird, will manage your wedding day with grace and confidence allowing all to have a carefree and memorable experience from beginning to end.
The very BEST!
Laura and Emily were wonderful to work with. I was concerned about having so much to think about on wedding day that I wouldn’t enjoy it. But with the help of this team I had the perfect day. They were always there to help and always made good decisions. I would recommend them to make your day perfect too!
Laura and Emily are absolutely incredible. They joined our wedding planning only 10 weeks before the big day and never missed a beat. We were so pleased with their professionalism, timeliness, dedication to our vision, and kindness. We would recommend them without hesitation! Anyone would be lucky to work with these wonderful ladies. Thanks Laura, Emily, and your whole team for everything you did for us!
We are deeply grateful to Laura, Emily, and the whole team for fulfilling every hope and wish for an unforgettable evening celebration with friends and family. From the very first phone call, I knew that Wolf and Bird was the right event planner for us. Laura immediately put me at ease with her positive and energetic approach. Over the last year, she was our partner in planning every detail of our event. Throughout the process, not only did she understand the vision we had, but she also understood how much our story as a couple and as individuals played a part in shaping the final event. We were purposeful in having a nontraditional wedding celebration, and Laura was so respectful of this decision. She took thorough and detailed notes of every design discussion. No detail was omitted. She remembered EVERYTHING that I had told her over the one year of planning. Design meetings with all vendors went so smoothly. I could see that Wolf and Bird has cultivated excellent relationships with all the people that make the event happen. There is no doubt that these wonderful collaborations made our event so special.
Finally after one year of planning, we had our celebration night. It was better than I ever could have imagined or dreamed to be possible! Elegant, opulent, sophisticated, elevated, modern but not overdone. Just the right amount of drama with a little bit of romance. Exactly the vibe we were going for. The whole Wolf and Bird team worked hard to bring every detail together on the day of the event, and they ensured that food, drink, and service went like clockwork over the 4 hour event. Laura even did an emergency lipstick removal from my gown. She had a whole kit ready and saved the day! My heroine! Without exception, every guest told us how beautiful the venue looked and how much fun they had.
What sets Wolf and Bird apart from other event planners, and why should you choose this company over others? Laura, Emily, and team have genuine and authentic hearts. It's even better that they are a family business. They are an incredibly down-to-earth team with impeccable taste and design sensibility. It's that combination that sets them apart from any others. They made our event not just fun but meaningful. It was truly the happiest day for us and our family, after 12 years of waiting for the right time to come together. It's been a joy to work with them over the last year! (Thank you to Laura for also going virtual dress shopping with me in NYC !) I will actually miss talking to Laura regularly, now that our event is over.
The final and most lasting endorsement comes from my husband. Skeptical in the beginning to the need of an event planner (why do we need one????), he has become Laura's biggest fan and Wolf and Bird's strongest advocate. My husband said our event was the best party he has ever attended!! I think that says it all.
Wow! What can I say. I wish I could give a review of 10+ to Wolf & Bird for an absolutely beautiful Bridal shower they put together for my daughter. From the very beginning, they knew the exact vision I was hoping for and went above and beyond to carry this out. Their attention to detail was by far the best I have ever seen. Laura and Emily knew exactly what I was looking for, even though I kept asking a million questions. It was an absolute joy to see the guests reaction (especially my daughters) to the beautifully decorated venue.
I couldn’t have asked for anything more.
Thank you again Laura and Emily-you are one in a million!!!!!
Wolf & Bird were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were able to take my vision that I had difficulty describing and truly brought it to life even better than I could imagine. I highly recommend them for any and all events!
We are forever thankful to Wolf & Bird for making our wedding the most incredible, thoughtful, personal, and fun day of our lives. If you are looking for wedding or event planners who are that needle-in-a-haystack combination of incredibly creative visionaries and relentless executors, and are looking to plan an event that blows everyone away and feels so incredibly personal no matter the size, Wolf & Bird are the answer.
Laura and Emily took the time to get to know us as a couple, leading to the most personal, intimate, and “us” event, with every detail meticulously considered and executed to perfection. Planning our wedding with Wolf & Bird was - dare I say it - fun. Wolf & Bird took the stress out of it, and we had a blast refining our vision in our mood board sessions, discussing details, and ideating what seemed like the most unrealistic ideas at the time which ultimately turned into reality. Wolf & Bird only takes on a small number of events per year, which means that they can truly get to know you and focus wholeheartedly on your event. I didn’t realize how much this mattered when I was initially looking at planners, but in understanding the effort and planning required for a wedding, it truly made the difference - we felt like our wedding was always a priority to Laura & Emily, who always had time to discuss whatever was on our minds and made us laugh constantly along the way. Every meeting felt like we were hanging with our closest friends.
Wolf & Bird selected vendors who were detail-oriented, creative, and hard working. They painstakingly prepared every detail, timeline, and coordinated with 20+ vendors to ensure that the event was perfect. Their knowledge of the industry and network is unparalleled. One example: we were hoping to have a magician during cocktail hour, and Wolf & Bird jumped at the challenge and found us one whom our guests are still raving about and asking how we found them - the answer of course being Laura & Emily.
Wolf & Bird took any idea we threw out at them and made it happen; even those we had mentioned once in passing were followed up on. Wolf & Bird also worked magic in our budget & vendor negotiations, getting us complimentary transportation upgrades and using their leverage in the industry to make the impossible happen.
When things do inevitably go awry during the process, Wolf & Bird will problem solve any situation. I mistakenly asked to downsize the dance floor during our planning, and my mom and I realized the mistake we had made when arriving to our venue 2 days prior to our wedding. Laura was on it. Before we knew it, a new team was on its way to install another portion of flooring the day before our wedding… and without a rush fee. Laura truly saved the day. We don’t know how she did it, but it was so on theme of Wolf & Bird seemingly snapping their fingers and making it happen.
Finally, my mother actually had FUN at our wedding. I didn’t know it was possible for her to let loose during the biggest event she’s ever thrown, but she completely trusted the Wolf & Bird team to make it more perfect than we ever could. Simply put, Wolf & Bird designed and executed our wedding beyond our wildest imagination. It would have been impossible without them guiding us through every step of the process and making our dreams come true.
We love Wolf & Bird! There are no words to adequately describe how grateful we are that Laura and Emily agreed to help us with our wedding. From the moment we had our meet and greet with them, we knew we were in excellent hands. Although I consider myself to be fairly organized, it was a relief to meet someone like Laura who was even more organized than me! She had lists and excel sheets for everything which was a major stress relief for me. I always knew what was on my "to-do list" and never had to worry that anything, even the most minuscule details, were going to be forgotten. Laura and Emily are absolute wedding masters and helped us with so many things that we wouldn't have even thought of or known how to troubleshoot. They walked us through everything with such patience and expertise. They also know and have personal connections with all the best vendors in the area so everyone we hired for our wedding was top-notch. Laura's design skills also allowed us to incorporate even more personal touches throughout the ceremony and reception. It was always clear that their primary goal was to plan a wedding that was personal to us. There were several times (especially our design session complete with charcuterie and wine) that we found ourselves actually having fun during the planning stages! As if all of their time and energy in the pre-planning months weren't enough, they were absolutely indispensable on the day of the wedding. They kept everyone and everything meticulously organized and if there were any issues on the day-of, we certainly didn't notice (neither did our guests who gave us so many compliments on the W&B team). My parents are hoping that another family event comes up just so that we can hire them again! Shout out to Emily especially for keeping the groomsmen in line, figuring out how to bustle my dress when no one else could, keeping everyone on the dance floor hydrated, and for being prepared with double-sided tape for my dress. Like I said, there are no words to express how awesome Wolf and Bird are as wedding planners/designers and also people. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone and hope we get an excuse to use their services again in the future!
What would we do without Laura & Emily?? From the beginning of our wedding planning experience, Wolf and Bird was there for us 100% of the time. We could truly relax and enjoy the ride because we knew Laura and Emily would always be there to solve any problem or make any crazy idea a reality. I went into the experience unsure of what I wanted my wedding to look like, and their amazing design session was crucial in the development of my vision and helping me figure out exactly what I wanted. From there, Laura and Emily did everything in their power to make my dream come to life. They are extremely connected to every vendor in the city, and always advocated fiercely on our behalf to ensure they understood our vision. They never took no for an answer! Most importantly, working with Wolf and Bird is such a personal experience, and Laura and Emily will forever be part of our lives. We will always be grateful to them for all they did for us and our favorite day.
I write this remarkable review as someone who throws many Galas in Chicago with the very best planners/decor specialists there. (But so happy our event was in Cincy!) Laura and Emily of Wolf and Bird far surpassed ANYTHING any of us have ever seen, or hoped for. They not only brought to life every single detail of my daughter's dream, but brought so many incredible ideas to us we couldn't even dream of, creating a truly magical, spectacular wedding. Every step of the way, they made so very fun and stress free. They guided my daughter, in first helping her pin point what she loves, in such a creative and thoughtful way, each decision, and the result in every aspect was beyond beautiful, from the gorgeous table setting, considering every beautiful tablecloth there is, to would we want to add musicians to our gorgeous flower-laden staircase as guests enter. Knowing my daughter's vision, they went to the ends of the earth to find every detail that would bring it to life, and again, even more than we could have dreamed of. They graciously guided us and stayed on top of every stage, every detail of the planning (and spared us from a tremendous amount time communicating with vendors, which they did so kindly). I could go on and on about all the pre-planning and the absolute stunning world they created for all events surrounding our wedding. But the day of, they orchestrated everything so beautifully, so seamlessly we didn't even know it. How do they do this? (Besides being creative geniuses and so very organized, and know all the very best resources) Laura and Emily themselves do this, which is what we originally wanted, having a personal relationship, not just one of many clients. Our only regret was that they couldn't sit down with us during the reception dinner, (they were busy making the magic happen!) as we grew to love them so, they would have been our very special guests. Every step of the way with them was pure joy. My husband and I both say that we are going to just come up with another event to have, just to go through this again with them! We could not be more grateful to them, for creating a wedding that went beyond any of our wildest dreams.
Amazing! Such a joy to work with! Brought my vision all the way to life beyond my imagination!
Wolf & Bird's design session was incredible! We were able to nail down all of the elements that are important to us during the three hour session, and they provided detailed notes of what we discussed for reference afterwards. This was a great starting point for us in our planning process. We'd recommend for any couple who thinks they know what they want, but could use some fine-tuning and a professional eye!
Laura and Emily are the wedding planning dream team!!! They made the planning process a blast and were so on top of everything that it felt painless. Their approach to wedding planning is unique, detail-oriented, and flawless. Their organization, professionalism, passion, and design expertise are just a few qualities I'll call out but they truly stand out as the best planners I will ever have the chance to work with. I always felt calm and knew that every single little or big thing was being handled by them, and with grace. We owe the wedding of our dreams to Laura and Emily and I am forever grateful for their hard work and guidance. HIGHLY RECOMMEND - you will not regret it!!
Not only did we land the perfect planning team, but we also landed some great friends through the process. <3
Working with Wolf & Bird (Laura, Emily and Team) was fantastic. As the groom, I wasn't incredibly involved in all the details but I was certainly "in the know" of what was going on in the year leading up to our wedding. The design, planning and execution were flawless - truly flawless. I was incredibly impressed in how they managed such a large wedding party (340+), the many vendors and and all other details. It came together in such a phenomenal way for us at Greenacres with Wold & Bird delivering. I always thought I would just get married and then be ready to move onto the other parts of my life but damn was that a fun wedding weekend (take me back). If you want a high-class wedding with your personal flair, Wolf & Bird will give that to you, your family and all your guests!
Amazing planners who executed things flawlessly with no detail left in doubt! Very professional, accommodating, and creative. As the groom, they valued my input equally even when I wanted to use a snow machine! If you have a crazy idea, they will work their tail off to make it happen seamlessly. On the day of the wedding, they worked >14 hours and had an amazing team of design/execute ninjas. Wouldn't hesitate to use them for any future events or celebrations!
Everything about our wedding day was magical and personal, and we have Wolf & Bird to thank for that. Laura and Emily are thoughtful, creative, and so detail-oriented (women after my own heart!). We considered ourselves pretty organized and had a clear vision of what we wanted, but felt that a professional planner would help us keep track of details and add a special extra touch. They did that and so much more.
There were special touches (putting together a custom cocktail and bourbon tasting, sourcing the most beautiful linens and tablescape items, and having a drink waiting in hand as we exited the ceremony) that made us realize how much they cared about us as people. My husband was obsessed with having "snow" at our December wedding and Laura went all out helping him with fake snow, a snow machine, and light effect snowflakes on the venue. I knew she really cared about those details and his happiness. W&B tends to everyone's needs, not just the bride!
I get a little teary thinking about how much they did for us. Our wedding was so great because of them. For people who did so much, you hardly noticed them on the day, they were like wedding ninjas and I love them so much. I really think if you came to W&B with no plan or a fully developed vision, they would know right where to lean in and help you. I highly highly recommend them and the added expense, because it will make all the difference in making your day unforgettable.
To say Emily and Laura are the best in Cincinnati would be an understatement - they truly are in a league of their own. I spoke to 2 other planners before speaking with Laura and I think she could sense I was a little worried about my search. She immediately made me feel at ease and within 10 minutes of our conversation, I knew we were going to go with Wolf + Bird - and I’m so, so glad we did.
I had the pleasure of working with Laura and Emily to plan our October wedding in Cincinnati, which thanks to COVID, ended up being for almost 2 years. It’s safe to say that we really got to know each other (silverlining!). The thought of planning a wedding was incredibly overwhelming to me from the onset and Emily and Laura were my rocks throughout the entire process.
Not only did they keep me calm and collected over the course of 2 years, but they also did everything - literally everything lol. Whenever I would text them a random thought or concern, you better believe they were already all over it. By the end of year 1 of planning, it felt like they were able to read my mind - which was probably my most favorite thing about them. Second favorite, how personable AND professional they are, such a hard balance to master and they do it effortlessly. I mean the entire wedding day, even my dad could not get over how fantastic they were, it’s all he can talk about still 2 weeks later.
From the design to the logistics, Laura and Emily made my wedding dreams come true. It was truly the most perfect day and it would not have been possible at all without them. I have been hearing non-stop from friends and family that it was the most spectacular wedding they’ve ever been to and I owe that all to Laura and Emily.
I organized a rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks party from Connecticut without having seen the venue or knowing any vendors in Cincinnati. Laura and Emily were invaluable at helping to make the evening a huge success!
Emily & Laura were absolutely terrific. They complement each other extraordinarily well on everything from the concepts & design to the business & budget aspects of planning a wedding. Regular Zoom sessions, calls, and email updates from Emily & Laura made us feel immediately at ease about planning a wedding in a city that we don't live in. They know, and will get, the very best vendors within every budget range. We were extremely happy with their suggestions, impressed by their organizational abilities, and relieved at the burdens that they shouldered in our place. On wedding weekend, they solved all of the last minute issues that arise, and then some. A guest brought a date last minute? There's Laura setting a place at the table like nothing ever happened. Groom needs a drink? There's Emily with a beer. We would highly recommend Wolf & Bird to any couple in the greater Cincinnati area!
Laura and Emily you both were beyond incredible!!! Having you guys were so comforting being my daughter lived out of town. Having to cancel the wedding due to covid, you guys made it so easy not to be so stressed out and disappointed. Our family couldn't of been more appreciate of your hard work and effortless passion in what you both do. Their commitment to detail, creative ideas and bringing their and my daughters vision to life was beyond magical! What a delight to work with them. You guys amazed me... I've never seen and or been to a wedding like this. Everything was perfect and the day of the the wedding I was blown away with your energy and attention you gave to everyone. Your staff was brilliant! It was truly more than I could of imagined for the bride and groom. I am still in awe of it and the feedback from family, friends and other guest there has been so fun and rewarding to hear. Everyone had the best time.You both are a joy to know. We are so thrilled to be using your talents again in May 2022 for our other daughters wedding!!! Laura and Emily it's perfectly clear you both love what you do and seeing you guys watch it come to life was insanely REMARKABLE! Love you both so much.. Wedding #2 let the planning begin. Cant wait to see the results!
If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. No one is better than Emily and Laura - they’re a perfect team who embody everything that is beautiful about the wedding process. Their passion for event planning and meticulousness with details is apparent in the work they produce. My bridal shower was a dreamscape of everything I love, and it wouldn’t have happened without Wolf & Bird.
We got married on the fly so didn't have a lot of time. Not only that but this was during COVID and on a Holiday weekend! Laura was patient with us every step of the way as what was to be a very small simple garden wedding (10 people) evolved into a little bigger wedding (16). There were some bumps in the road during the planning phase, but Laura remained calm and talked me down on more than one occasion. In the end we had an incredible/intimate and perfect wedding, complete with beautiful pictures over the Cincinnati skyline, dinner at Jeff Ruby's Precinct, and a view of the WEBN fireworks at the top of The Phelps. We could not have had a more perfect day!
Four instead of five stars only because we were hurried (our fault) at the start of the ceremony and bridesmaids were directed to walk in before a couple family members (we did not have a rehearsal). Otherwise everything was absolutely perfect. A job well done! We would definitely recommend Wolfe and Bird!
All I can say is WOW. This dynamic duo was introduced to me over a year and a half. From the first meeting , we knew Laura and Emily were going to be the ones to help plan our daughters wedding. The original wedding was planned for June 20,2020. Well we all know what happened. From the first meeting until the new wedding date of August 29,2021 we were constantly in touch. They helped with every single detail from invitations, to venues, florist, you name it they delivered it. We started out as clients and it grew into an amazing friendship. These girls are absolutely amazing and will blow you away with their creativity, eye for detail, and loving and warm personalities. I wish I had another daughter so we could do this all over again. Kudos to
Wolf & Bird
From the first time we met with the staff at Wolf & Bird/Event Design and Styling , my husband and I felt we were in good hands when planning our daughter’s wedding. They saw our vision, worked professionally with other vendors, and felt like part of our family. The wedding day was simply perfect, and as the mother of the bride, I was able to relax and enjoy every minute of my daughter and her husband’s special day. A five star rating doesn’t even seem adequate for their work, enthusiasm and professionalism. Thank you, Laura and Emily!
Laura and Emily were out wedding planners. THEY WERE AMAZING. Unfortunately, COVID-19 impacted out plans and we had to reschedule our date. My wife and I decided to have a backyard "legal" wedding in the meantime. Laura and Emily helped planned that in addition to our large ceremony/reception the following year. Both celebrations were perfect. I sincerely do not have any negative feedback or any regrets. Laura an Emily are truly professionals in this space.
A few things I loved about Laura and Emily
-The initial consultations where they really got to know myself and my wife. The cheese board and champagne was a plus :)
- The constant updates via text and email so we were always in the loop. Communication is critical and it was on point every step of the way
-Bias for action. Laura and Emily act quickly to resolve any road-bumps that occur throughout the entire process
-Knowledge. Laura am Emily truly are experts in this field and had the best point of contacts for literately everything you may need.
I absolutely give Wolf & Bird my highest endorsement as premiere partners when planning your special events!
Laura and Emily have worked with us for the past two years helping us with literally anything we could ask for. They saw that every detail was carefully executed and made wedding planning stress free. Cannot recommend them enough!
Emily and Laura made are wedding day the most joyful and happiest day of our life together. Their kindness and expertise made wedding planning incredibly easy and completely stress free. With their vision and execution, our wedding day was a perfect reflection of our life together and we couldn’t be more thankful for all of their help. Emily and Laura will make any wedding day the best day of your life and will make your vision a complete dream come true. Their professionalism and expertise make the most difficult decisions easy. They are truly a blast to work with and make wedding planning so much fun!
Emily and Laura are incredible! They listened to my daughter’s vision for her wedding day and translated it into exactly what she dreamed of and more, down to the smallest detail. I don’t know how they did it with so many restrictions in place, but they did and it was perfect! Not to mention the fact that Laura and Emily planned not just one wedding for our daughter but two! Our family, including the bride, became ill with COVID 4 days before the scheduled wedding date and everything had to be cancelled. Laura and Emily’s kindness and understanding plus their “we’ve got this for you” attitude was way beyond anything we could have anticipated or expected. We were and are incredibly grateful. From cancelling and rescheduling vendors, negotiating new dates, dealing with high emotions and so much more, they were amazing. I cannot imagine having had anyone other than Laura and Emily, owners of Wolf and Bird, to work with our daughter and plan her most perfect wedding day. I cannot recommend me them enough!
Hiring Wolf and Bird for our wedding planning was the best vendor hire of our wedding. They went above and beyond to make sure all of the details for our wedding day were perfect- not once, but 2x! Unfortunately, our first wedding date was cancelled due to COVID- but Emily and Laura made our last-minute rescheduling less stressful. They truly are a full service planning company- and also just generally awesome to be around. Emily is a logistics master and Laura handles all details with ease- and makes everything look styled and gorgeous. Every meeting we had with them was organized and thoughtful- they even made sure we had a packing list beforehand so we didn't forget anything.
I can't imagine not having them for our wedding- it was such a perfect day and I can only attribute that to how much time they took to get to know us and our vision. If you're thinking about getting a planner- do it. Working with the team at Wolf and Bird will allow you to fully enjoy every part of the planning process and your wedding day to the fullest.
We engaged Wolf & Bird Design to help us plan and execute a special birthday for our daughter. The event was not in the city in which we live and we needed a professional's eyes and ears in Cincinnati. Laura and Emily were easy to work with from our initial contact, all the way through the event. It was easy to get in touch with them and they responded to emails promptly. When they set expectations for when I could expect information, they followed through on time, 100 % of time.
Laura brought a lot of creativity to the planning, suggesting things I hadn't considered while also working with my ideas. I always felt like it was our party, they were just putting the finishing touches on it and refining the event.
Wolf & Bird stayed within the budget we set for the event, delivered everything we asked for and more, on time and in the most professional manner. We would definitely recommend their services to brides or anyone planning an event in or around Cincinnati.
Wolf and Bird created the most magical first birthday party for my baby girl. I came to them less than two months in advance with the idea of a nursery rhyme themed party and they went above and beyond, creating more than just a party but an experience.
They came up with ideas that took the theme to a level I wouldn't have imagined. Little Bow Peep greeted us at the door, sung Happy Birthday, helped to make flower crowns with the children, and led a story reading. A beautiful "unicorn" even came walking up the drive, draped in flowers, to meet the children (and the just as excited adults) and take photos with us. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how much they enjoyed the luncheon food and the cocktails.
Wolf and Bird was easy to communicate and work with. They made a very short timeline feel like it was no problem. They took away the stress of feeling like I was a host so that I was able to savor and enjoy the day as if I was one of the guests. They truly made it a memorable day for all of my family and friends and I could not recommend them enough.
Wolf & Bird made my 40th birthday photo shoot an absolute blast! They did everything—I just showed up with a few outfits. The makeup artist, the photographer, the playlist, custom backdrop and props were everything I could have ever imagined. I cannot recommend Laura and Emily enough. Wolf & Bird is who you want to work with if you are looking for a highly custom event and attention to detail. I plan on using their talents for my husband’s 40th birthday next year.
Working with Wolf and Bird was an amazing experience. Laura and her team are extremely detailed and very thoughtful about every step of the planning.
Laura handled everything behind the scenes- she asks enough questions and then takes everything from there.
We've worked with many planners in the industry and hands down reccomend Wolf & Bird!
Wolf & Bird was one of the best event planners I have worked with! The event went smooth, and looked amazing!
Laura and Emily made sure everything went without a hitch on our wedding day! I was so nervous about coordinating all the details, especially as I was planning from out of town-- but Emily and Laura took care of everything-- including all the back and forth on logistics with each member of our vendor team.
They also gave us a shortlist of great vendors to work with (also helpful as an out-of-towner), and offered great advice on a million design questions from the color of the bridesmaid's dress colors to flatware rentals. The day of was beautiful, and we wouldn't have changed a thing. Thanks Laura and Emily!
Wolf & Bird is extremely professional, and personable. Their unique collection of decor is fantastic and we absolutely loved our centerpieces!
I am a soon-to-be grandma and wanted to throw a thoughtful, well put together baby shower for my much deserving daughter. I needed it to be breathtakingly beautiful. I chose Wolf & Bird because of their epic style and stunning attention to detail. They helped with décor and planning. The Wolf & Bird team are an unstoppable force. They do what they do with such ease they could do it in their sleep. With their very generous help the beautiful day was a huge success. It fills my heart to know my grateful daughter felt love and blessings beyond reason. I hope to use them again in the future.
Emily and Laura are incredible! They are detail-oriented and have great insight and expertise to make your wedding day flawless.
If you are on the fence about “Do I need a coordinator or event team?”—YES, you do. It’s worth every penny! Cheers to a stress-free wedding, executed flawlessly! 🥂
W&B were a pleasure to work with! Great communication skills and attention to details! Would recommend them for any occasion and hope to work with them in the future!
Wolf and Bird was a dream to work with! They were 3 steps ahead of us the whole way.
Laura was extremely clear about what her client wanted and how we could best customize our setlists for the event. We took her advice and it all paid off!
The client was extremely
complimentary of us and explained that we were exactly what she wanted. That’s because Wolf and Bird did not just broker a band, they took the details seriously and set us all up for success.
Ellen worked the event. She was cool, calm, and hospitable. She looked like she wasn’t working at all which is how it should be. Preparartion. Preparation. Preparation.
Caters, photographer, venue staff, and the band all seemelessly put on an event at their direction in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
I hope to get a call from them again soon!

We are so glad we chose Wolf & Bird to plan our retirement celebration.
Expert design and excellence in execution were nothing short of FAB! The whole evening was so special, complete with a wonderful theme they helped brainstorm, elegant decor (especially loved the sequined linens, unique geo candles and never-before-seen ballon swag), and day-to-evening lighting overlooking the pool and city lights. So many guests commented the party was soooo enjoyable they had a blast.
Wolf & Bird goes ‘above and beyond’ with owners Laura and Emily adding personal touches. (like specialty cocktails that were a huge hit!). You will not be disappointed especially if you want ‘special and unique’!
The team was amazing to work with. They were fun, organized, and easy to talk to. The wedding was a huge success!
I shot videography at a wedding planned and coordinated by Wolf & Bird. The day was gorgeous! I loved working with Laura and Emily. They were on top of every detail. With their help, the couple was able to enjoy the day stress free.
Laura & Emily were an AMAZING asset to my wedding day crew!! From initial design meeting to my big day, I couldn't have asked for a better team. They set up my cocktail hour/reception beautifully, no detail was missed. I'm in love with how everything turned out and would recommend Wolf & Bird to anyone!
These two were so helpful in ways that I didn’t not even know I needed! From helping to plan out the minor details prior to the wedding, to decorating/beautifying our wedding arch, to being there on the day of to make sure the candles were lit, the table displays looked gorgeous and ensuring that everything was perfect. They eliminated so much stress by taking care of things that I didn’t even think about such as floral arrangements and colors in general. These two are the dream team and your wedding day will go so smoothly with them by your side!
My photo booth company was recently part of a large corporate event planned by Wolf & Bird. It was easily the most organized and impressive event I've been a part of in Cincinnati. Everything that Emily and Laura plan, goes that extra mile. Beyond organized, their events are always aesthetically extra creative and impressive to their clients. I've since been a part of a few other events planned by Wolf & Bird and they've had the same results. If you're looking for that 'little extra something' for your corporate event but simply aren't sure what that is, Wolf & Bird is a must!
Laura and Ellen with Wolf and Bird were amazing to work with from the very start. From our very first meeting I knew they were the right choice for our big day! The fact that they can either start from scratch with you on the design of your event or help to execute your vision says so much! They really want to make your event as special and perfect as can be. For my wedding, I would consider this some of the best money we spent. They helped me iron out all the small details, and never let me worry about things. The moment something came up the handled it with grace and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Their care and service to us on our day was priceless. Everything went smoothly, they constantly communicated with each other and with us as needed, but really let us just enjoy every moment of our day because we knew they'd be taking care of the details. Their talent and attention to detail made our wedding the best it could be. We had many guests asking us during and after the wedding for their contact info because everyone was truly impressed with the event they put on for us! You can't get better than Wolf and Bird!
Beginning with our first design session, we knew we could trust the team at Wolf and Bird to meet all of our wedding needs. Laura and Emily provided us with an eye for design and a detailed plan to get us ready for the big day, all while specifically tailoring their services to fit our needs and budget. They allowed us to realize our vision for the big day in ways that we couldn't have possibly anticipated. They never overlooked a detail and they demonstrated exceptional professionalism while interfacing with the bride and me, both of our families, and every one of the numerous vendors that we put them in contact with. It would be difficult to overstate just how impressed I was with their preparation for our big day, and the results were beyond what I could've imagined.
Above all, Laura and Emily executed flawlessly on the day of our wedding. They were on site, conducting every aspect of the wedding so seamlessly that I barely even knew they were there (except that they always kept a drink in my hand, including water to keep me hydrated!) We were showered with compliments by guests who insisted it was the best wedding that they had been to. I can confidently say that this is the direct result of Laura and Emily's personal dedication to making our big day reflect all the love and care that it deserved.
In conclusion: your wedding day is going to be special because it's a celebration of your love for one another. Wolf and Bird will amplify your ability to cherish every aspect of that day in ways that you likely cannot even think of. Do what you can to enlist their services, and your wedding day will be everything that you hoped and more!
I can’t even begin to tell you how hardworking and amazing Laura and Emily are. They made my wedding dreams come true and it exceeded my expectations. No detail was missed and they worked with every vendor to make it all come together. Our design meetings were extremely productive and made us so excited for the big day. Extremely accommodating and creative they helped with making my wedding absolutely gorgeous and perfect. I couldn’t have imagined doing it without them. During the reception they also were great about keeping us on time, grabbing us drinks and making sure we actually ate!
So many compliments were given at how beautiful the venue was decorated and that was because of these two! Guests kept saying it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. They both have an amazing eye for design and are extremely creative. Laura and Emily work together so well and their services are completely customizable and they can help with as little or as much as you need. Which is great, because we needed a lot of help as our reception was at a very unique location and they made everything work seamlessly!!
We love Wolf and Bird and I’m positive you will too.
Laura and Emily are two of the hardest working, most creative and incredibly organized people I’ve ever met. They strive (and succeed) at personalizing every detail of the event. Every single aspect of our event was done with warmth and taste! So many of our guests tracked us down to tell us it was their favorite wedding. If you want to take the stress and guess work out of any event, look no further than Wolf & Bird. They set the bar so very high!
If you are looking for an event planner, I strongly recommend working with Wolf & Bird. As a corporate event planner with years of planning experience, it was a difficult decision for me to hire a wedding planner. It turned out to be the best decision that we made for our wedding. With remnants of Hurricane Gordon passing through the weekend of our outdoor wedding, it could have been very stressful for my family and me. Emily and Laura and their team took all of the stress off of us and made sure that my husband and I and our families had the best day of their lives. I never lost faith that they had everything handled. As a self proclaimed control freak, it felt amazing to relinquish that control to people you trust. Not only did my whole family love working with Emily and Laura but the vendors we worked with all commented to me about how great and professional they were. Thank you! Thank you, Wolf & Bird! We can't wait to work with you again soon on a fun event.
Laura Wolf and Emily White are worth their weight in gold!
As proprietors of Wolf & Bird / Event Design & Styling,
they are contagiously upbeat and cheerful and incredibly organized and talented.
Taking our ideas and running with them, they laid out an unusual and stunning floor plan for the banquet room, cocktail area, and dance floor.
When remnants of Hurricane Gordon dropped 5-7 inches of rain in our area over the weekend of the wedding, we moved the location of the outdoor ceremony twice the day of the event. Laura and Emily
utilized design skills plus measurements to determine the best way to accommodate our guests. They handled everything so we could continue to enjoy our pre-wedding preparations with the bridal parties, family and friends.
During the planning process they gently and with good nature provided deadlines to keep us on track.
Between meetings, they would continue to study our plans and present alternatives for potential problems we might not have identified on our own.
We found that in the end, with the advice, attention to detail and expertise that Laura and Emily provided, we all felt that our experience far exceeded the expense. We could not have done it without them.
I worked with Wolf & Bird Event Design and Styling on a huge event! They were amazing! They were very clear on the direction and super thorough through out the planning process. They were prompt and efficient and I always knew where we were on the project. I can not recommend them enough!
I was so impressed working with Laura and Emily, both by their design talent and their enthusiasm for making my wedding vision a reality. I am not the kind of girl who has been dreaming about her wedding since she was 5 years old and felt pretty overwhelmed by the whole planning process, but Laura and Emily were able to narrow down my style and preferences so that we had a clear vision. They are so sweet and fun to work with! They were so on-the-ball and consistent throughout the planning process. No task was ever too big for them to handle or too much to ask, and they were totally flexible about working around my schedule. Everyone involved in the wedding commented on how impressive they were! I had total confidence in them to pull off my big day, and they totally did! It was beautiful and perfect in every way imaginable!
Wolf & Bird designed my daughter's 1st Birthday Party. I wanted a theme that celebrated the summer (her birthday is in June), and we brainstormed about an Ice Cream Social Theme. From that one initial meeting emerged the most beautiful birthday party anyone could imagine. They built a color scheme inspired by the room chosen for the party and everything was so beautifully coordinated - the pictures looked like they belonged in a magazine. The team created an amazing ice cream bar with more toppings than I could have imagined in curated serving dishes. They think of EVERY detail - down to providing some bottled peach fizzy soda and paper straws that coordinated with everything else. I felt as though I didn't have to prepare anything for the party - they brought decorations, the food, the drinks and a million other things I wouldn't have thought of. And they had one concern in mind: making sure everything was beautiful and went off without a hitch! While I have been married for quite awhile, Wolf & Bird have inspired me to think about renewing my vows - just so I could have another beautiful celebration for my family! Will work with them again in a heartbeat, and recommend them to EVERYONE.
I came to Laura and Emily for help throwing a surprise party for my wife. To say they delivered would be an understatement. Not just because they had great ideas and talent, but they really listened when I described the type of party I was looking for. And they weren’t afraid to use a couple of my own ideas which meant a lot and made me feel like I was a vital piece of the planning. They were very easy to work with and I won’t hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.
Wolf and Bird meticulously helped design and plan my 30th birthday party. The event was at my house and they worked around the current layout of my house and set up a very “party friendly” layout (which I didn’t think was possible in my old house). The flower arrangements they created were absolutely beautiful. They were able to make elegant decorations, have all the serving necessities, and still stay within our budget. They stayed during the party and helped make sure drink coolers stayed full, food stayed stocked, and the photo booth ran smoothly. I still can’t believe how beautiful everything turned out. Thank you Wolf and Bird!!
Great communication, clearly cares about making the best event possible for their clients.
Laura and Emily were fantastic and did a spectacular job with our wedding décor and coordination! As a couple planning our Ohio wedding from out of town (and 3 hours behind their time zone), Laura and Emily made it super easy to work with them and were extremely flexible with our schedule. They thought of every question and detail, which we reviewed multiple times throughout the process. This really helped keep the stress level to basically zero. They did a great job from the beginning of trying to understand in different ways what our vision for our day was. I am very particular, and I had a very distinct vision in my head for what I wanted my wedding to look like – they nailed it. We wouldn’t have changed a thing. We have received so many compliments on how beautiful our wedding was. Laura and Emily also worked closely with our florist and other vendors to make sure everything was perfect and take a lot of work off of our plates. They were extremely attentive throughout our entire wedding, making sure everything was running smoothly and the way that we wanted, as well as checking to see if either of us needed anything. Because of Laura and Emily, we were able to just enjoy our day and not worry about a single thing. We cannot thank them enough. We would highly recommend Wolf & Bird for your event!
My husband and I used Wolf & Bird for our unisex baby shower and what they delivered was beyond what we could have imagined! They chose to carry over the forest theme of our nursery for the party. From the earthy and wooden decorations, to the "acorn" desserts and "tree stump" snacks - it was perfect. The best thing of all was that Laura so kindly let me keep one decoration to put in the nursery. It's awesome to see it daily and remember such a fun, pre-baby day. Thanks for a memorable party, ladies.
We wanted our wedding day to be a relaxing and fun day for our whole family and friends visiting New York. This meant working with Vendors that helped us define the day and then led the work effort.
Wold & Bird was brilliant at listening to what we were looking for but also asking questions of us (many things we didn’t think of!) to allow for that stress free environment that we were looking for. In the lead up to the event Wolf & Bird prepped all and everything including last minute table assignments, decor etc.
No task was too big or too small and everything was always completed with a fun and positive attitude so that we could just relax and enjoy ourselves.
We can’t thank and recommend Wolf & Bird enough!
Wolf & Bird made my vision for our baby's first birthday a perfect reality. Every detail helped us celebrate how special our little guy is to us. We have a lot to live up to for his second birthday!
I really enjoyed working with you guys! Your style is as amazing as your personalities. You are kind, funny and creative geniuses.
I met with Emily several times throughout the Planning process and she was wonderful helping create what I dreamt of to a reality. This included big decisions such as offering color schemes with visuals (mock-ups of bridal party with dresses, suits and colors), as well as help with bridesmaids and groomsmen attire. On the day of the wedding, I was completely stress-free. Emily and Laura set up our dessert table and the custom built bar decor flawlessly. It was beautiful and exactly what I asked for. I can honestly say with out Emily and Laura, my wedding day would have not been as smooth and stress-free as it was. Thank you Ladies!
My husband and I just got married in Lebanon, OH and, during our planning, were searching for someone to help us with day-of coordination - we found Laura and Emily!
Our situation was unique in that we didn't have a caterer; our family friend made the dinner sides, meat was ordered from a local restaurant, and cocktail food and dessert were done by our mothers. Not only that, but the timing of elements in our ceremony were sensitive, so we needed someone to make sure it ran smoothly. Almost everything for our wedding was DIY in terms of food, decor, ceremony, etc. and we needed someone to help us manage it all. Wolf & Bird came to the rescue.
We met with Laura and Emily early on and communication leading up to our wedding was excellent; they were always prompt and accessible. The two of them made a diligent effort to make sure our day was flawless. And it was! They went above and beyond to make us, and our guests, feel special and jumped in to help wherever needed. Seriously. Every time I even thought about being thirsty, they were immediately there with water in hand and graciously asking if I needed anything else...I.N.C.R.E.D.I.B.L.E.
I can't begin to explain all that they did for us; all of the tasks, big or small or random, that made our day perfect. I highly recommend using Wolf & Bird for your wedding or other event. They are absolutely wonderful and truly excellent at what they do.
Wolf and Bird Events assisted me with a bridal shower. Because the couple were merging two households the bride and groom did not need any of the traditional shower gifts. Wolf and Bird assisted us with all of the details from decor, to a signature cocktail and to the creation of quilt worthy of display. Each guest completed a square that somehow represented their relationship with the bride and/or groom. Wolf and Bird's eye for design and detail made this shower so unique and one to remember! I recommend them without hesitation!
Amazing, wonderful, and beautiful inside and out. Their style is beautiful and they will make your day nothing short of magical.
Emily and Laura were amazing with the early on design and planning meetings. Like many other brides, I really needed help narrowing in on my vision and theme. These ladies were great and patient during that process. They are extremely reliable and made themselves available to help with last minute things any time I called. They also were spot on for day of set up, the quality of Emily and Laura's craftsmanship and design eye in styling our reception was superb. There wasn't a detail missed. I would recommend using Wolf & Bird to any bride looking to make their special day perfect!
Wolf & Bird are as organized as they are creative. As a photographer, when I hear they are styling an event, I jump at any chance to work with them again! Everything they do is bewitching and a treat to photograph. They execute every occasion with acute attention to detail and done with an orderly hustle. You definitely can count on Wolf & Bird for your big day!
