Working with Wendy leading up to and on our wedding day was a wonderful experience. We hired Revel & Wonder for their "premier" wedding coordination services and floral services. To say Wendy exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. At the end of our wedding night, my husband and I realized that nothing had gone wrong that day. People warned us that there's always something, but somehow there wasn't for us (but really I know a lot of it was because of Wendy). From the time we first spoke, I could tell how detail-oriented Wendy is. Leading up to our big day, she asked us tons of questions to make sure she knew what would be happening and when, and even helped us realize there were things we weren't even thinking about that we needed to iron out. She helped us create our timeline for the day, down to the minute and differentiated by vendor, making it easy to know what needed to happen and when. She even sent out a packet to the wedding party with their schedules, responsibilities, and tips for the big day, which my maid of honor loved and used to help keep me on time that morning. My parents and in laws were extremely impressed with Wendy as well. She got along with all the vendors, those she had worked with before as well as new ones, and carefully navigated the dynamics at our ceremony venue which had its own on-site coordinator. And not to be forgotten is her amazing talent with floral design. She helped translate my disconnected thoughts on the vision for the floral arrangements, even adjusting course when I completely changed color scheme. She also helped us to stay on budget, and talking through types of flowers and pricing as we came up with our final decisions. Ultimately, she designed and arranged the bouquets, bouttoniers, altar arrangements, sweetheart table arrangement, and reception table florals (a mix of bud vases and small vases, mixed with votives and floating candles along 8 foot tables). The results were beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. Wendy is so knowledgeable, organized, and on top of things that I had no concerns going into our big day. Plus she was so friendly and easily approachable that if she was stressed, you wouldn't know it! I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner, and also recommend her for florals as well. Ps. If you're deciding between "basic" and "premier" coordination services like I was at first, the premier is so worth it!

We used Wendy and her team for florals and table décor and the outcome was truly incredible. I did not come to our first meeting with a lot of inspiration or concreate thoughts on how I wanted the tables and venue to be decorated. Wendy was so knowledgeable, asked amazing questions and was able to quickly figure out a way to bring my ideas to life. I also greatly appreciated that Wendy respected and stuck to my floral/décor budget. One our wedding day, Wendy and her team took care of setting everything up and it looked absolutely amazing!

I used Wendy and her team for both floral and coordination services. Our wedding day would not have gone as smooth as it did without Wendy and her team! From meeting with me to walk through the venue 8 months out to discuss floral options, to zoom calls to assist in decision-making from afar (we were living across the country), to Matt from her team being at the hotel all morning to coordinate timeline adherence from both the stylists and between the two rooms-- The Revel & Wonder team went ABOVE AND BEYOND to ensure our day was stress-free and enjoyable. Wendy allowed me to actually able to be in the moment and enjoy every single second! I can't even imagine what our wedding would have been like without you all!!!

There is no wonder at all why Wendy of Revel & Wonder Weddings is a multiple-time award-winning wedding planner. We booked with Wendy a year and a half before our destination wedding date. My husband and I had Zoom meetings with Wendy every other month, and she would assign us tasks to keep our planning process on schedule. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional throughout the planning process. Wendy thought of every detail and included them in our wedding day timeline. On top of recommending amazing vendors, she was wearing two vendor hats for us! As our florists, she created flower arrangements exactly what I envisioned, and the price was comparable to other florists. We would recommend Revel & Wonder to any upcoming bride and groom. Our once in a lifetime celebration would not have happened without the help of Wendy. Our families were hesitant on why we chose to have a wedding planner, but after seeing Wendy and her team in action they were so pleased with our choice of Revel & Wonder Thank you, Wendy! ❤️K&J Kremer

I cannot imagine what my wedding journey would have been like without Wendy. She went above and beyond in every aspect. She kept me in line throughout the planning process, and then did an incredible job keeping my entire wedding party on time during the wedding day. If things weren't going according to plan, Wendy handled it before the stress even made it to me. What a saint. We love our Wendy and would recommend her to absolutely anyone and everyone planning a wedding!

I had the pleasure of working with Revel & Wonder on a recent wedding, and I have to say that I was incredibly impressed with their services. From start to finish, the team at R&W was professional, organized, and an absolute pleasure to work with. One thing that stood out to me about Wendy and her team was their attention to detail. They were incredibly thorough in their planning process and ensured that every aspect of the wedding was carefully considered and executed. This attention to detail showed on the wedding day, with everything running smoothly and seamlessly. The team at R&W was also incredibly friendly and accommodating. They worked closely with the couple and their vendors to ensure that everyone was on the same page, and they were always available to answer any questions or concerns. They also went above and beyond to ensure the couple's vision for their wedding was brought to life. Overall, I highly recommend Revel & Wonder Weddings Planning to couples looking for a professional and experienced team to help plan their wedding. As a photographer, I have worked with many wedding planners over the years, and I can honestly say that R&W is one of the best. They truly care about their clients and their weddings, which shows in their work quality

. I look forward to working with Wendy again in the future!

Wendy was extremely helpful as our day of coordinator providing helpful tips throughout the planning process that were above and beyond what we were paying for. I was originally against hiring a day of coordinator, but it ended up being worth every penny as Wendy and team kept everyone on track.

Wendy and her crew were PHENOMENAL. We have told everyone, and sincerely mean it, that Wendy was worth every penny. I can't imagine things running as smoothly as they did without her, both in the lead up to the day and the actual day of our wedding. She was super responsive, gave great recommendations, and was very on board with helping us make what we wanted happen. She was also our florist, and did an incredible job with our arrangements; everyone comments on how beautiful the flowers were when we show them photos from our wedding. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a fun, amazing, creative wedding planner!

Wendy was great to work with and very responsive! She and her crew went above and beyond to make our event beautiful!

Omg. Words cannot describe what an awesome, selfless, efficient, knowledgeable, professional and resourceful wedding planner Wendy is. I seriously don’t know what I would have done without her support and organization. Her team works so well together, and they run an efficient yet still meaningful event. I truly thought of her as an extension of myself when I did not know how to navigate a situation, or felt overwhelmed. She had not worked with many of my vendors previously, but she absolutely made my wedding a seamless event despite being unfamiliar with the specific flow of how these people worked. She is worth way more than her monetary value on any day. Even during a rough time in her life, she was always readily available to guide me through the wedding planning process. Truly a passionate soul about her work as well as her clients. Nobody else will keep it more real with you than Wendy. Stop what you’re doing, and BOOK NOW!

Wendy is hands down the best investment we made while planning our wedding, you need her on your team! When we had our first meeting I told her, one of my goals for the wedding day is to not cry because I’m too stressed or something doesn’t go to plan. Wendy assured me the only tears I would shed on the big day would be of happiness, and man did she deliver! Wendy and her team made our entire day absolutely perfect! Wendy made the entire planning process completely painless, she was always available when we needed and also when we didn’t know we needed her. The planning software was a great and really kept us on track. The vendors she recommended were absolutely amazing, and the vendors that hadn’t worked with her prior to our wedding couldn’t stop telling us how impressed they were with her thoroughness. Her emergency kit had everything you could ever need if anything went awry. When my husband ripped his pants before the ceremony, she didn’t skip a beat, she pulled out her sewing kit and had them repaired within minutes! Wendy and her team truly made our dream wedding a reality and we could not have wished for anything more!

Wendy and her team truly are the best! They really are the dream team and we couldn’t be happier. They helped our magical weekend wedding dreams come true. They were always very patient, responsive, and are in the know with the most current and fabulous trends. We absolutely reccomend them without hesitation! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Wendy was the biggest gift we could have ever asked for for our wedding day. I am a type A personality that can plan like nobody’s business for events and work related items— turns out this was NOT the case for weddings and she came to my aid almost immediately. The check-ins and initial planning were one thing— the day of coordination was a dream. Not one person came to ask me what the next thing on the agenda was or if I could help do something— Wendy anticipated everything and that was the biggest gift by letting me relax and enjoy every aspect of the celebration we had put together (which is usually next to impossible for me). Do not wait and just hire Wendy and her amazing team. It’ll be the best decision you’ll make through the whole wedding process.

Wendy is incredible! I'm not sure I'll be able to do her justice. We did the partial planning and all of the vendors she recommended (DJ, florist, officiant) were all also punctual, reliable, and just phenomenal in how they truly captured our essence and put it into the wedding. The day of was a total breeze thanks to Wendy who worked tirelessly behind the scenes (including hounding our flaky bakery into actually delivering our cake, making sure the head table look gorgeous, wrangling the groomsmen, etc.) She personally decorated our dessert table and it looked absolutely beautiful. I cannot recommend Wendy and her fabulous team enough and I've already had friends/family ask me for her information for their upcoming nuptials.

Wendy and Matt were amazing! Leading up to the wedding, Wendy met with us numerous times and helped discuss all of the details and keep us organized. The day of, they did a fantastic job. From helping get our decorations set-up and torn-down to any small snafu's with their emergency kit to keeping everyone on the same page, the timeline of the wedding went off without a hitch! Thanks so much, Wendy and Matt!

Oh my gosh, book now. Book yesterday. You need this team!!! Wendy and her team are just unbelievable (in the best way). I cannot say enough good things and emphasize enough how ESSENTIAL Wendy was to me through the whole process. So, I was a Covid bride, started planning in 2019 (engaged December 2018). I booked Wendy without knowing what was to come. It was honestly, looking back, hands down the best decision I made for the entire wedding. Our original date was in May 2020, and we all know what was going on around that time. Covid. Having to postpone was honestly devastating for me, but Wendy got me through it. She handled all the new contracts, coordinated all of my vendors to see what new dates they had open so that I could keep them if I wanted, talked me through the process and seriously calmed me down, and we rescheduled for December 2020. We planned everything for a second time...and then, the world shut down again. And we had to postpone again. And Wendy came through for me, again. She took the reigns and handled the postponement in a way I could never have done alone, again. I would not have known what to do without her even without Covid, but with that added on top...she was essential. The biggest blessing was having her help through such a turbulent and scary time. I can only imagine how lost, upset, scared and confused I would have been without her help. Hopefully, other brides will not have to deal with Covid postponements going forward, but even without a global pandemic, you still NEED Wendy. For the service I booked, Wendy helped me as needed while I planned what I wanted for the wedding, and as we got closer she became more and more involved on a day-to-day basis. It was the best of both worlds for me - I got to plan the day exactly how I wanted, and I had this awesome friend (I really do think of her as a friend after all we went through) giving me invaluable advice and help all the way through so that I maximized my budget and picked the best vendors STL had to offer. She was always available to talk to when I needed help. Her planning software and customized timelines were so so helpful and exactly what I needed. Then once we got closer, she really dug her hands into every detail to make sure everything was planned and taken care of to perfection. Please understand, there are so many details to planning a wedding that the average person just doesn't know, and won't think about. There were so many moments in the planning process that Wendy thought of things that I would say "Oh my god. I wouldn't have even thought of that without you. It just wouldn't have gotten done." So many details of the day that would have gotten missed if it was just me on my own. So many things that were made perfect because she was there, because she knows exactly what needs to be done. Honestly, my wedding day was the best day of my life. I wish I could go back and do it over again every day. And it was because of Wendy and her staff, making sure I got exactly what I wanted. Wendy, I cannot thank you enough. Thank you so much for giving me such a magical, perfect experience. I will never forget you - you deserve all the success in the world. I am so happy to have met you. Booking you was the best decision I made (besides the groom I picked - he's pretty perfect too). Thank you, thank you, thank you. <3

If you’re wondering if you need a Day of Coordinator, you do. Hire Wendy. Do not hesitate. Our day was literally perfect because of this woman and her staff. Not only is she incredibly talented at multitasking, she also helps with everything. She had amazing ideas, she doesn’t take slack from anyone. Wendy is organized, confident, and honest! She resolved our issues and questions in minutes. I’ve never been more impressed. She gave amazing advice and kept two very anxious brides calm. I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her. At one point in our night my wife made a comment about a stain on her tie, while in the middle of their break, Matt- Wendy’s assistant whipped out a Tide pen and the problem was solved. That moment defined our entire 2 years of planning with this team. Wendy also handled all of our florist needs as well! Our flowers/bouquets were gorgeous. They were exactly what I envisioned. I tell you she’s a mind reader and produces amazing results. We love you Wendy and Thank you for the most amazing experience.

Hire Wendy. Don't think about it. Just book her. She's amazing and she will make your wedding day and your planning process soooooo much better. I promise. You can't possibly foresee all the little things that are going to come up that you will be so grateful you have Wendy to ask advice or help from. She helped us navigate some tricky invite list questions, find vendors that were amazing, saved the day when hair and makeup had to back out last minute, and so much more. Then on the day, she made sure that all the little things were put together, that the vendors were taken care of, that the ballroom looked amazing, that the glass ceremony and decorations we took care of ourselves were set up, that we looked right, that we were relatively on time, that extra shoes showed up at the table and on and on and on. All those pieces that either family or friends would have to take care of instead of being present with you or that just wouldn't happen - she and her team made it happen and made sure that I, my husband, and our families were able to just bask in the day, enjoy ourselves and be present. Wendy and her team are absolutely amazing and booking her was 100% one of the best decisions we made during planning. She was worth every penny and then some and she's a fun person who's really great to work with to boot. We cannot recommend Wendy and her team enough.

Wendy and her team made our day the best day we could have imagined! Wendy was with us every step of the way, helping us decide what was important, working with our budget, helping us pivot with every curveball we were thrown. She went to bat for us when we needed it, and truly had our backs, knowing what we wanted for our day. We could not have had our perfect day without her! She truly made it all happen, and made our beautiful reception flowers to boot! Save yourself the stress, and book Wendy. You won’t regret it!!

I have so many great things to say, I am not sure where to start. Wendy and her team are in simple terms: Amazing, professional, resourceful, kind & understanding. Having Wendy help me with my wedding was like finding a sister I never knew I had but instantly loved. She is friendly, understanding and knowledgeable. How could you ask for anything more? You can't, so look no further - you've found your wedding planner/coordinator/decorator. They do it all! Working with the Savvy team, help me put into focus the very small but important details of making your wedding day dreams come true. They have a professional and thorough system that allows you to cover the ground on things you are possibly too busy to even consider. I loved having Wendy & her team help us and could rave on and on about their professionalism and resourcefulness! Thank you so much Wendy and team for all you have done to help every bride on their special day! With tons of love & respect, Paul & Shantel

Wendy and her team did an awesome job helping Lauren and Zach navigate their beautiful wedding at the Missouri History Museum. Their attention to every detail allowed the couple to enjoy and celebrate with their guests. As their caterer Orlando's worked closely with Wendy and we found them very organized, professional and easy to work with. Orlando's highly recommends Revel & Wonder Weddings!

I am so glad we hired Wendy for our wedding! I do not think I would have had it in me to postpone and then keep planning a wedding by myself during the pandemic. Wendy made postponing easy. I hope future brides won't have to think about that, but still, I include it here so you know the R&WW team has your back. Wendy was so helpful with communicating with vendors and answering questions throughout the planning process. She was flexible with changes in plan, had solutions to problems, and helped me so much in staying on top of things. Day of my wedding, Wendy and Emily did a fantastic job keeping people on schedule, setting up, and adjusting plans quickly when needed. Aside from logistics, Wendy had great suggestions for the wedding too. She put together a "tea party" table to display our favors (individual tea bags) that was so cute and not something I would have thought of myself! Please hire Savvy Bride for your wedding too!

Wendy is organized, professional, and responsive! I always thought that a wedding planner was out of my budget, but Wendy was surprisingly reasonable and was absolutely worth it. We had so much less stress in our lives thanks to Wendy. I also appreciated Wendy’s personality. She was fun, not stuffy, like I had imagined a wedding planner would be. That being said, she was also incredibly organized and on top of the details-a perfect blend. Most importantly, she helped pull off a beautiful wedding. Very happy!

I'm a local videographer and worked with Wendy and Emily on a wedding recently. They were very helpful with communicating the timelines of everything before the wedding and helped me with scheduling with my client. On the day of the wedding Wendy was quick to get food for the vendors which is something a lot of planners/coordinators fail at. She is not only thinking of the bride and groom, but everyone behind the scenes too!

Wendy and her team at R&WW is absolutely amazing! She is so knowledgeable, organized, responsive, and overall great to work with. I can't imagine having pulled off the wedding without her. I think having a coordinator was definitely a must and I highly HIGHLY recommend Wendy!

If you're reading this review, your time would be better spent immediately hiring Wendy to be your wedding planner!! I truly cannot say enough good things about Wendy and her team. Wendy basically planned us two weddings due to COVID-19, and she did it with grace, support, and enthusiasm! When the pandemic hit and we had to reschedule, she made spreadsheets and coordinated everything with our vendors to seamlessly secure a new date. She ensured that our new vision came to life, and I knew I could trust her with anything that came up on the day of the reception. Wendy went out of her way to help us with our destination wedding, including last-minute color printing, picking up wedding flowers, and directing our vendors. The smartest move I made was choosing Wendy to help me. Wendy is the person you need as your planner--trust me on this one!!

Wendy was indispensable during the entire planning process and on the day of the wedding. She helped us breeze through two postponements ensuring all vendors were either re-booked or new vendors were found . She also was a great mediator between the Event Planner at the Wedding Venue and the Bride and Bride's Family when miscommunications occurred. Wendy is very organized and keeps updated records on Aisle Planner. She was easy to work with and always available for questions. She was also quick to follow up on things. On the day of the wedding she handled unexpected issues (two bridesmaids leaving and one not returning) with grace and professionalism quickly devising a workable solution. I really do not believe we could have pulled this off without her. And it was a beautiful ceremony (even if Ace the dog didn't cooperate) the dining room looked lovely, and the reception was so much fun

We had the opportunity to work with Wendy and her team for a beautiful wedding in the city. As a caterer who provides on site cooking and meal assemblies, timing and punctuality are a must for our team in order to assure an efficient, hot and tasty meal. Wendy was not only easy to work during the planning stages months before, her team also provided very timely updates for us on ceremony progression for meal service coordination. Of all the weddings we have worked, this had been one of the most punctual and organized events we have had the pleasure of working. Great Job!

I loved working with Wendy and her crew. She made our day run smoothly and without her I would have been an absolute mess. She answered all of my emails quickly and I had such a good time working with them all. I felt truly comfortable with my wedding day in their hands!

There is no way that this little box can hold enough characters to adequately share how amazing Wendy and her team are! Without them, there is no way we would have been able to pull together our wedding, especially during a pandemic! We started working with Wendy prior to the pandemic, and we were sure that the pandemic would deter vendors from working with us. Wendy ensured that we found the right vendors to make everything just perfect. Venues closed, and people got sick, and we had to change so many things - but this didn't even worry Wendy. She worked with us to find solutions and - I think she knows everyone in St. Louis (if that is possible) because she had a list of vendors within about 5 mins of any conversation we had! We also had our wedding on Rosh Hashanah and so there may have been a mix up regarding bagels, but her team ran over to a bakery and basically demanded bagels on a Jewish Holiday! My dress bustle wasn't done correctly, so Wendy came through and safety pinned it! It was perfect! She was so on top of things that during the event she would "Mama Bear" us and tell us to eat! We were having so much fun we almost forgot about food - Which was also amazing! And Wendy helped with the tasting too! I mean, honestly, I don't think there is anything that Wendy cannot do! Anxiety was high given everything going on with COVID (and a bit of family drama), but she knew how to keep us focused on the happy things. She helped us is so many ways over the span of a year and a half... We could not have done this without her and her team. They are truly wonderful at planning weddings and truly wonderful people. I am so beyond thankful!
