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 didn't want to do or didn't 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, décor ideas, traditions, etc. Madi went above and beyond to turn my wedding into a dream come true. When it comes to coordinating vendors, she's 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 d'oeuvres to me and my husband so we didn't 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!

"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!"

Madi Crook is THE best 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, xoxo Andrew & Adrionna (7.6.2024 at camp blodgett)

"Hiring Madi as our wedding planner/coordinator was the best vendor decision we made by far! She is so friendly and easy to work with, was organized with every small detail, and was absolutely the reason that our wedding ran so smoothly for us and our guests. During the planning phases, she always had thoughtful ideas and suggestions, yet always made us feel that our wedding should be exactly what we want it to be. She sent along countless helpful resources, even her own wedding gallery to help us visualize ideas she had used at her wedding. Through all the chaos and small obstacles on wedding day, Madi kept a calm demeanor, never once seeming hurried or rattled. When asked questions throughout the day, she listened completely and always answered thoughtfully. She thinks quickly on her feet and was able to implement solutions to problems very efficiently without having to consult others. She was always thinking ahead about what needed to be done next and delegated tasks to family members effectively and politely. In the midst of having so many responsibilities herself on wedding day, she was incredibly attentive to our guests’ needs. She handed out bottled water to multiple tables so that guests wouldn’t have to leave their seats, and when the line for our coffee cart was too long to stand in the cold, she took the orders of my family members and brought them back hot coffee! She went above and beyond staying until 12:30am helping my family to pack up and clean the venue. I would recommend Madi as a planner to all of my closest friends without hesitation, she is simply the best!"

"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 wouldn't 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!"

"Madi at Sweet Magnolia Wedding Planning is an absolute wonder woman. I am a wedding photographer who got to work alongside Madi and I truly was amazed by her excellent organization and communication prior to the wedding (we were in contact a few months before the wedding, sharing and shifting plans to ensure the timeline worked well for photos and guests alike). Additionally, on the day-of she kept things organized with a sweet, calm, and confident spirit. She made sure the bride and groom's every need was met and she did the same for the vendors. I'd highly recommend Madi to anyone wanting a stress-free wedding experience."

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!
