Irene + Matt. ✨

What a beautiful day celebrating Irene + Matt, filled with love, joy, and meaningful Chinese wedding traditions. This was such a special one for our team, as it was our first time experiencing these incredible customs firsthand. An unforgettable blend of culture and celebration that we’ll always cherish.

A few moments we’ll never forget from their day:
💜 Witnessing the fun bridal party “Challenges” and traditions before the Chinese Tea Ceremony
💜 The Traditional Chinese Tea Ceremony - the couple served tea to guests, who gave them well wishes and advice.
💜 A HUGE family photo after the tea ceremony!
💜 A beautiful wedding ceremony at the Japanese Garden, with a cute dance moment between the bride and groom at the end of the aisle!
💜 An AMAZING cake by Bebe Liz Gourmet cake - like wow!
💜 Getting to see Eileen and Nico, one of our 2023 couples!
💜 A fun game during cocktail hour - guests placed bets on things they thought would happen during the reception (i.e. would there be a bouquet toss, would Irene change her dress, etc)
💜 Cocktail apps were provided by the bride’s parents - a crowd favorite!
💜 The most HYPED wedding party entrance!
💜 A fun wedding entrance for the bride and groom with a Chinese Lion Dance. Such a cool tradition to witness!
💜 Pickleball favors with cute bride & groom face paddles
💜 A quick snap BTS of the bride’s change to her reception dress
💜 Popcorn snack all night long - I couldn’t quite capture how cute this machine was in picture form!

Maddie + Tristan. ✨

We would relive Maddie + Tristan’s wedding day every weekend if we could! The energy, the love, the intention behind every detail - they created something truly unforgettable. Being part of it was an absolute joy. 🫶

Here are our fave moments:
🤍 This was the first time I’ve ever grabbed a random selfie with the groom - Tristan was fantastic! He asked me for help as needed all day and made sure everything was going smoothly for Maddie. 🥹
🤍 A quick trading cards moment for the groom and his groomsmen.
🤍 Sweet getting ready moments with the bride and bridesmaids.
🤍 An exciting “WE’RE MARRIED” moment! 💜
🤍 Loved the “Mix and Mingle” popcorn and goodies station! 🍿🍬
🤍 We are completely obsessed with the vibes of this venue! They had some many fun photo op spots, decor, plus an adorable outdoor bar cart! 😍
🤍 A bar favor from the couple’s dog. 🐶
🤍 The best wedding party vibes!🙌
🤍 Maddie and Tristan beaming with excitement before their grand entrance. 🥹
🤍 A beautiful first dance (with an amazing venue backdrop = like WOW!)
🤍 A quick attempt at a vendor photo with Sophie! Please note my tiptoes and STILL was too short...the effort was there though. 😂

VENDOR RED FLAGS YOU SHOULDN’T IGNORE 🚩

Hiring the best team for your wedding is everything, but not all vendors are created equally. Here are a few red flags we see far too often:

🚩 1. Slow or no response. If it takes weeks to get a reply during booking, imagine how stressful that’ll feel the month of your wedding. Our rule of thumb is 5 business days leading up to your big day (many vendors are working weddings every weekend, so we always say give them a week before panicking!), but 3 business days the month of your wedding.

🚩 2. No contract. If there is no paperwork protecting you and outlining responsibilities, that’s a big no no.

🚩 3. Vibes are off. ALWAYS trust your gut. If a vendor doesn’t make you feel comfortable, listened to, or respected, you do not need those vibes on your special day.

🚩 4. Too good to be true. Rock-bottom prices with zero reviews usually come with suprise costs, or worse, no-shows.

🚩 5. They don’t ask about your vision. Vendors should WANT to learn about your style, needs, and priorities, NOT just sell their package. This day is about YOU and YOUR PARTNER!

A great vendor team makes all the difference! We are always happy to advise and recommend other vendors we love. 🫶

What does a wedding coordinator actually do?

While you are in wedding “the big day is finally here”bliss, your coordinator is behind the scenes making everything run smoothly.

What you do not see on the day of your wedding:
💜 A button getting sewn back on a groomsman’s pants
💜 The calls to vendors to make sure they are running on time
💜 Guiding staff on where things go
💜 Holding grand entrance doors with giant smiles and pure joy
💜 Crying at every (and I mean EVERY) wedding ceremony because we love love
💜 Stepping in to emcee last minute
💜 Wrangling wedding party members (kind of like herding cats)
💜 Touching base with vendors to keep the timeline on track
💜 Mediating family drama
💜 Finding an emergency tailor

You shouldn’t see us doing this — because you’re busy enjoying the best day of your life. 🫶

🤍Adorable comfy + personalized bridesmaid gift - matching comfy sets with their initials embroidered. Very reusable and still a fun moment on the morning of! (plus matching MOB & MOG robes)

Candace + Andy.✨

We are still riding high from Candace & Andy's wedding weekend. It was such a beautiful way to start off our 2025 wedding season! We were also honored to be the first coordinator stepping foot in the new, beautiful venue - Events by Old Monroe Distilling Co. 🙌

Here are some unforgettable moments from their wedding!💜
🤍 Unmatched vibes from this venue - they have a BEAUTIFUL grand staircase, a cocktail hour space that gives speakeasy vibes, and they are overall the sweetest & caring humans to work with 🫶
🤍 The CUTEST bar napkins and signs, in honor of the couple's dog Oscar 🐶
🤍 Thoughtful memorial seats in front row of ceremony seating
🤍Getting to be a fly on the wall during sweet moments like the MOB helping get the bride ready, first looks, and the couple having an adorable moment with their dog 🫶
🤍 We were OBSESSED with their seating chart - a personal photo of each guest with either the bride or groom. They were able to do this because they had a private ceremony and dinner with just family and close friends with a larger friend group joining for the reception later in the evening.
🤍 INCREDIBLE florals from Rouge Florals, which really popped in this beautiful venue!
🤍 Reception decor that was literally magazine cover worthy!! 😍
🤍 The Flawless team always loves taking advantage of snapping a quick photo in the welcome mirror 💃

🤍 A late night snack moment - hotdogs 🤣👏🌭

Juel + Lucas. ✨

Still not over how magical Juel + Lucas' day was. From the beautiful ceremony to the best reception, every moment was filled with so much love!

Our fave moments from their special day:
🤍 OBSESSED with their guest book idea - they had multiple bottles of wine for big anniversary years (1, 5, 10, 15, 20, etc) and had guests sign them so they would see their names when they open them on that year's anniversary
🤍 Tiny adorable desserts from Smallcakes - a crowd favorite! 🧁
🤍 Beautiful centerpieces from Petal Pushers STL (the SWEETEST florists)
🤍 Forever obsessed with the Majorette's candle wall 🙌😍
🤍 A fun big family photo on the staircase (plus Katie making sure our new photographer friend, Kristen Easley, didn't fall during the family photo)
🤍 Tear worthy first dance moments 🥹
🤍Fun reunion moments for us with past couples and friends!

This past October, we had the honor of planning the Burns Recovered annual trivia night. The theme = Halloween! The Flawless team dressed up as party animals. 🤪

The trivia night had an INCREDIBLE turn out (around 350 people) and the emcee had an iconic “Where’s Waldo” moment. 🙌

Burns Recovered is a non-profit organization that works with burn and smoke inhalation survivors and their families to provide support and hope in their journey of recovery. For more information or ways to support visit their website at BRSG.org.

Rachel + Michael. ✨

We LOVE reminiscing on Rachel + Michael's day. They are two of the sweetest humans, which made it SO easy to celebrate them. 🫶 The couple's day was filled with many family traditions and unique moments that we will never forget. We wish everyday could be Rachel + Michael day!!

Here are a few of our fave things from their day:
🤍 The couple are both in the chemistry field, so all of their table numbers were elements of the Periodic Table; each table had an Erlenmeyer flask and a tub of dry ice for guest to play chemist with!
🤍 Each table setting included a personalized Limoncello container (an Italian drink tradition)
🤍 Obsessed with their beautiful cake overlooking Forest Park + their dogs peeping out of the cake!
🤍 We always love a custom wooden sign as the guest book
🤍 Many Flawless Fun moments were had
🤍 The bride forgot socks for her reception shoes, and her dress did not lend itself to bending down to change shoes, so Marissa gave her the extra pair of socks she carries & helped her get the socks and shoes on. 🫶 🥹
🤍 Italian Tradition - the couple walked around & gave out little pillows with treats inside them
🤍 The couple's first dance was a WHOLE routine! The best choreography and energy we have seen in years!
🤍 First time we have ever witnessed a bride crowd surfing - LOVED IT! Their wedding was just filled with so much love and the best energy. 💜
