Introduction: Modern couples are more than capable of planning the all the elements of their perfect wedding day, but who is going to make sure it all happens the way it was planned? Who will arrange the place cards and help with the room flip? Who will cue you down the aisle and make sure the ushers have the programs? Who will let the Best Man know he has 5 minutes until his speech and make sure the gifts are moved to a secure location? That's where I come in. With years of experience in the event industry and a passion for details- I have it all under control. From connecting with your vendors so they can bring you their best to keeping the timeline right on track, I'm ready to help the day run smoothly, so you and yours can simply enjoy what is sure to be the best day of your life. Details are my jam and I love seeing what unique and personal elements each couple has incorporated into their big day. Finding those little moments where a little extra finesse or attention can really add to the overall event make my heart skip a beat.

For Better or For Best Weddings supplied the Photo Booth for our wedding in August of 2014 and my wife and I could not have been happier. We essentially booked them, paid them, and never worried about the details again. They had great props, great printouts, and the people working the booth were so much fun. Our guest really loved this booth so I would highly recommend this to anyone who is considering it. The photos you keep are really fun momentos that we will cherish and their price was incredibly reasonable by comparison. You definitely can't go wrong with For Better or For Best and you won't find the quality they provide at a better price (at least we did not!). Thanks again FBoFB team!

I am writing to let everyone know how pleased we were with Kelly Houlehan as a wedding coordinator for our daughter’s wedding, June 24, 2017. The ceremony was held at the MN Arboretum and we some scheduling challenges that Kelly navigated easily. When I arrived at the Arboretum at 11:00 am the day of the wedding, I had no idea Kelly and I would not get into the reception venue to prepare the tables until much later in the day when I was scheduled for photos. Kelly used her time efficiently to listen to my detailed plan, sort the décor to facilitate the transfer of flowers, candles, lights, pictures, and butterflies to their respective locations. She set up everything without my help. The reception room was absolutely stunning and the ceremony lovely. I could never have successfully done the décor had it not been for Kelly’s hard work, efficient planning and professionalism. Kelly was also on hand to reminded us of our photo timelines and got us to the ceremony location on time. She served as a point person for any questions that came up during the reception like helping the DJ to upload the slide show, coordinating the event with the Arboretum staff and keeping my relatives' meals warm while they stepped out for a minute. Kelly was there to respond to every question or problem that arose. She also help organize clean up and packed the décor at the end of the evening. WOW!! Kelly was easy to work with and made it possible for me to enjoy my daughter’s wedding, eat a wonderful meal and celebrate the evening with dancing. I cannot speak more highly of Kelly’s ability to listen carefully, actualize that plan, herd our families around to pictures, ceremony and reception, and clean up. She is an exceptional contractor for the Wedding Collective. I would highly recommend Kelly’s services to everyone who is planning a wedding. Thank you Kelly.

Kelly was a wonderful presence to have around on our wedding day. She brought a calming feeling with a smile wherever she went. Kelly met with us several weeks before the wedding to get a sense of our vision. She asked all the right questions, offering her expertise when needed, to make sure everything was completely thought through. At the wedding, she was able to pick up and do anything we asked her to do; and, thanks to her ability to understand our vision for the big day, she was able to pick up and do all things we didn’t think to ask of her. Kelly is incredibly personable. She introduced herself to family and friends and was always in the right places. Her ability to be kind and direct allowed us to sit back and enjoy the day, trusting that she would make sure everything was ready. She also took care of all the logistics of the day. She communicated with all of our “vendors” to make sure everyone was on the same page. She made all of the transitions happen seamlessly. She even stuck around to the very end to make sure that everything was just the way we wanted it. We didn’t have to do a thing except enjoy our wedding with our family and friends. We appreciated the joy, confidence, and quality that Kelly brought to our wedding. It was obvious that she loves what she does. Kelly made our special day even more special. She made our dream a reality.
