Robyn + Nick live in NYC so helping them coordinate the details of their day from a few hundred miles away helped them to relax and enjoy the process. We were so happy they chose to come home to celebrate their love for each other with friends and family in Zionsville! Their wonderfully talented family also shoot beautiful wedding videos! We are so happy to share this beautiful Spring day from Robyn + Nick at The Barn in Zionsville! Thank you to The Siegers Photo + Video for the beautiful video!
Jacquie + JJ Costello 6.17.17 Scottish Rite Cathedral
We loved helping Jacquie + JJ plan their wedding in just 4 short months at the Scottish Rite Cathedral! It was a whirlwind but so much fun! Jacquie's Uncle is the Vice President of United States so that added some tricky planning complications to the day. We worked with Secret Service for the first time and navigated that with few speed bumps. The groom even got a call morning of the wedding from the President which made for one surprised and happy groom! Jacquie and I worked along with her mom to plan a formal and elegant day which came together perfectly! From their fun, fast paced first dance to the great band, guests were on their feet all night! Jacquie + JJ had the sweetest families and they made for such a fun day! See all the beautiful images below and a vendor list at the end.

Ammar + Haseeba's Wedding Reception at the Scottish Rite Cathedral
We loved helping Haseeba + Ammar with the second day of their weekend long celebration! Their kind and generous family joined in the planning of this stunning day to make sure it was perfect! Ammar + Haseeba wanted a neutral palette to ensure the day felt elegant and polished. The Scottish Rite Cathedral in downtown Indianapolis was the perfect backdrop to this stunning day! It was so fun to plan all the beautiful details you see below! It was a day full of family from near and far and lots of great food! This was the first time the caterer had ever made Pakistani food so we did extensive recipe and taste testing to ensure it turned out perfectly which it did! Thank you to all the vendors who made this day a big success! See full vendor list at the bottom.

Ammar + Haseeba's Mehndi at the Ritz Charles
We loved helping Ammar + Haseeba plan their fun two day affair! Ammar comes from a large Pakistani family that lives locally and they made me feel like family as I helped them plan their wedding! It was such an honor to be along for their journey. We had just a few short months to pull everything together so we had many meetings in a short time frame to keep things on track. On wedding day their non-traditional style led to a vibrant party that kept guests dancing till the end. Friday started at the Ritz Charles Garden Pavilion in Carmel, IN with fun and colorful flair! See some stunning pictures below as well as a vendor list.

Getting To Know The Team: Sarah
We want to share a bit more about each of the planners within our company so our clients can get a better sense of each of our personalities. We're going to start with our owner Sarah Keeker. Find out a bit more about her below!
I rarely remember to get pictures at weddings with our amazing clients but below are a few favorites that some great photographers helped capture over the years.
· Tell us a little about you.
I’m born and raised in Zionsville, Indiana. I have three kids: Lily, Scarlett, and Jack. They are so fun and keep me busy when I’m not at work. We love to play outside, bake, and go to the library.
· What’s your go to coffee order?
I am usually a black coffee drinker. Iced coffee always.
· What’s your favorite part about being a wedding planner?
I love helping people. I always am most satisfied when we have truly helped remove a burden for our clients and they have been able to find joy in planning their wedding instead of stress.
· What’s your favorite place to travel?
Southern Italy. I’d pick up and go any day if I could! I love the relaxing pace of life there. You move from coffee to pizza, walks around the small towns finished with wine and gelato. It’s perfection!
· What’s your favorite part of a wedding day?
I love the moment when couples walk back down the aisle after getting married. The pure joy on their faces is something truly magical! It’s a joy to see.
· What’s your favorite place to have dinner out in Indianapolis?
I love Napolese pizza so much! I could eat it probably every day. It’s my go to for lunch or dinner out. A new favorite is Good Omen in Zionsville.
· What’s your best advice to couples on their wedding day?
To try your best to soak it in. It goes by so fast, so try to really be present in those special moments.
