The Founder & Lead Planner

About

Madi holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Event Management from the University of Central Florida and brings 9 years of diverse experience in the event industry. Her career began in high end event design for corporate events, where she worked on everything from elaborate themed receptions at iconic venues like The Broadmoor and Gaylord Rockies, to exclusive after hours events at Diagon Alley in Universal Studios, and corporate events at the Olympic Training Center.

While planning her own wedding in March 2023, Madi discovered her true passion for wedding planning. Having already worked closely with wedding vendors on the corporate side, the transition to wedding planning felt like a natural next step—and one that quickly became a reality. Since then, she has been fully dedicated to this new path, bringing her experience and enthusiasm to every couple she works with.

At Sweet Magnolia Wedding Planning, we love the collective joy on a wedding day, the lasting friendships that fill the room, and the lively spirit of celebration. 

We are committed to breaking away from the repetitive, cookie cutter approach to weddings. We believe that relying on the same vendors for every event just limits creativity and personalization. With so much incredible talent in the wedding industry, it is our job to explore, connect, and ask the right questions to find the perfect vendors for you. Our top priority is making sure your wedding reflects your style and story.

Madi is such a blessing, I was really debating on getting a coordinator or not but I am SO happy we did. She helped with all month of communication with our vendors and was constantly advocating for our wishes. Madi came prepared and handled everything by beautifully.She allowed us to enjoy our day and not worry about the details. Above all she was able to take the stress away from my mom and let her be in the moment. Thank you Madi, you are amazing

Words cannot express how amazing Madi was as a full service wedding planner for my wedding Wondering if you need a planner, the answer is YES YOU DO  I am from Florida and wanted a destination wedding in Telluride, CO. I found Madi and immediately knew she was the perfect fit for my wedding. Since I have never visited the area prior to the wedding, she was an amazing asset to planning out all the details of my wedding regarding local travel, stays, weather, and other information. She even took the time to visit the venue herself before the wedding to make sure she was fully prepared. I am a very hands on person and enjoyed the idea of being involved in all the little details of the wedding. Madi let me be super involved in planning while simultaneously taking over those pesky tasks that I did not want to do or did not have time to work on. I was one of those brides who thought I could do it all but boy was I wrong  She was my favorite person to go to to ask any wedding related questions because she knew everything there was to know about weddings: bridal party questions, seasonal color palates, decor ideas, traditions, etc. Madi went above and beyond to turn my wedding into a dream come true. When it comes to coordinating vendors, she is a rock star  She kept in contact with all my vendors and made sure everything ran smoothly. Just before the wedding, she lead my rehearsal with the bridal party. It was absolutely hectic boys will be boys lol but Madi was able to keep everyone in line and did a beautiful job, so incredibly helpful On the morning of the wedding day, Madi made her rounds to check up on everyone and kept us all on schedule. Even though there was a hiccup with my dress breaking, she still helped to keep everything on time  Between the ceremony and reception, Madi hand delivered some hors doeuvres to me and my husband so we did not miss out on the social hour food. She was also a huge help with playing some of the wedding music from her speaker. I will forever be grateful for that. The decorations were placed beautifully for the reception, I was absolutely in love with how it turned out, better than I imagined. I had a fantastic time and so did my husband. And at the end of the night, she helped my husband place some décor items into shipping boxes which was a HUGE help. I am so incredibly blessed to have worked with Madi and hope that other brides will have zero hesitation in booking her services

We hired Madi for our month of planning. Madi was so knowledgeable and helpful during the planning process. She met with us multiple times to go over big and small details. She took care of us and made sure we were happy on our wedding day. For example, she kept us on our timeline, made sure our other vendors were in the right place at the right time, and took care of decor tear down. She was essential to making sure our day was as beautiful as we expected. I don’t think we would have been able to enjoy ourselves fully if we didn’t have Madi working with us. Highly recommend trusting her with your big day

We were in need of a day of coordinator with only about a month and a half until our wedding when Madi was recommended to us: and she was a lifesaver  After only a few meetings, phone calls, Madi was able to gain a really good understanding for the casual wedding we were trying to have and the coordination it involved including separate locations for ceremony and reception. She handled everything behind the scenes so well, that we would not even be able to tell you if something went awry. Would definitely recommend Madi to anyone. All not to mention, she did this all while in the middle of planning her own wedding  Thanks, Madi

We had such a wonderful experience with Madi at Sweet Magnolia Weddings. We were hosting a destination wedding in the mountains of Colorado and Madi made our vision come to life while also allowing us to truly enjoy the day. Our month of sessions with her help hone in some of the finer details, and while she coordinated with our vendors, we were able to focus on other preparations, which lifted a huge weight off of our shoulders. Our wedding day could not have been as successful if it were not for Madi. One word of advice: wedding planners, month of, and day of coordinators are totally worth it

If you are thinking of booking with Madi.. THIS IS YOUR SIGN, DO IT  Madi is not only GREAT at what she does but she is super detailed in her work and cares so much about bringing your vision to life. I am super grateful to have had her as our wedding coordinator, because our special day would not of been the same without her. Madi is always one step ahead of you and prepared for any possible scenario that you probably have not even thought of. Forgot something? No need to worry, she has your back.
Madi it is evident you are really I mean REALLY good at what you do
Thank you for all that you do

Madi was AMAZING We hired Madi to be our Day of Wedding Coordinator and are so glad we did. From helping us lock down the final touches at the rehearsal the night before, to all the day of decor set up, coordinating with our other vendors, and making sure we had everything we needed on the big day, we could not have asked for anyone better She is prepared, organized, creative, so kind, and an all around great person. We could not have done it without her, definitely recommend hiring Madi for any wedding planning needs

Madi Crook is THE best day of coordinator. She is present, helpful and goes above and beyond. She does tasks that you will not think that needs to be done. She is caring and looks after the bride, groom, and the bridal party. If you are off track with your wedding timeline she will be creative on how to rearrange it in a calming reassuring manner. She is OUTSTANDING. I wish she would coordinate all of my major events     We are forever grateful for her and everything that she did  Thank you Madi

Madi was such a huge help leading up to and especially on our daughter’s wedding day. I knew I could count on her to do what we asked and she went above and beyond. That took so much pressure off of me and allowed me to just enjoy each moment.
