Hiring Sarah was the best hire for my wedding I could have made. I hired her for the day of package, but she was helpful in answering lots of questions for me throughout the planning. She made my day of absolutely no work for me or my friends and family. She's fun, smart, reliable...all around WONDERFUL!!!
I don't even know where to begin on how amazing of an experience it was to work with Sarah! While I have known her for years and trusted her completely, nothing prepares you for the joy of a truly flawless wedding day! When my dad asked what was more important, the date I wanted or if Sarah could be there, it was an obvious answer. I will not have my wedding day without Sarah as my coordinator. From beginning to end, her expertise, poise, communication, and confidence on a wedding day is unmatched. She brings a sense of calm and you know you are TRULY in good hands. If there is any vendor that you absolutely need to book, it is a coordinator, and there is no one better than Sarah!!
Working with Sarah to plan our wedding was the best decision and investment we made. There is a reason Sarah is the best in the business. From the outset, Sarah’s calm demeanor put me at ease during the planning process. As a type-A person, I was anxious to check things off the list, but Sarah balanced my need for progress while reassuring me that we had ample time and could follow the meticulous timeline and checklist she had created.
Planning a wedding out of state was daunting, but Sarah's exceptional communication skills made everything seamless. She was extremely responsive and took the lead in coordinating with our vendors. We managed to meet face-to-face multiple times when we were in the cities, which helped build our trust and rapport with her.
One of the standout benefits of working with Sarah was her vast network within the wedding industry. Her vendor recommendations were spot on, allowing us to assemble an A-team for our big day. The praise and excitement we received from other vendors when they learned we were working with Sarah confirmed that we had made the right choice.
Sarah's professionalism shone throughout the planning process, keeping us on track and answering our many questions with patience and clarity. On the wedding day itself, although Sarah could not be on-site, her lead planner, Gabby, took over and was an absolute superstar. Gabby guided our wedding party and families with ease and a smile, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
In summary, Sarah's quality of service, coupled with her professionalism and outstanding communication, made our wedding planning experience not only stress-free but also enjoyable. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a wedding planner. She was a joy to work with and almost makes me want to plan another wedding!

Sarah came highly recommended to us not only by other vendors, but from friends who were recent brides. I was thrilled to find out she was available for our wedding date and we didn't think twice before working with her. She was kind, professional, patient with all my questions & very quick to answer emails which is such a minor thing, but really showed she cared about our peace of mind. It was very clear we would have been lost without her when it came to vendors and all of the little details of wedding planning - we walked out of our florist meeting amazed at how quickly she was able to put together & communicate our dream design while keeping our budget in mind. She brought such a fun and positive energy to the entire wedding planning experience and made sure our day ran smoothly to the point my dad gave her a shoutout during his speech. We were able to enjoy our day to the fullest with no stress because of her & I couldn't recommend her more!
Sarah is absolutely THE BEST when it comes to anything and everything wedding planning in MN!
I could not have imagined planning our wedding without her! She came up with a new and creative ideas for our venue space that turned out to be some of my favorite things/pieces about our day, and without her none of it would have been possible! She was incredible with getting us connected to the best vendors in town and keeping us organized the entire way. I truly felt like she was invested in our day from the very beginning, and took a real interest in making our vision come to life. I cannot recommend Sarah and all of her staff enough- look no further than Lasting Impressions and you will not be disappointed!!

Working with Sarah and her team was such a joy. As a surgical resident living in another state, Sarah made planning a wedding a breeze. Every meeting with her was so fun and full of light and joy. She was able to take my ideas and know exactly what vendors to get on board, and how to plan, organize and execute the plan to a T. I had such a stress free wedding day all thanks to Sarah and her team at Lasting Impressions. I could not have done it without them!!
Sarah.Was.Amazing. We planned our MN wedding from a distance (TX) and could not have asked for a better local planner and coordinator! She had great contacts, amazing taste, and was excited to help us make our wedding day everything we wanted and more. Her professionalism and attention to detail allowed us to relax and enjoy our wedding day, and the joy she brought to her work was evident and so genuine.
