    Highly recommend A+++

    I own Midwest DJ Productions. We recently had the pleasure of working with Megan Potter and Dare to Dream Weddings at Jan Serr studios for Nikki & Felipe’s wedding. From the start, communication was amazing. She was polite, professional and very detail oriented. During the event she worked hard to keep everyone organized and on task but was always calm, cool and collected. She is a leader in her industry and it definitely shows. Everything turned out absolutely phenomenal. Can’t wait to work with Megan and her team again in the future! If you are considering hiring this company, I would highly recommend you do it. You won’t regret it! A+++++

    Jamie was Amazing!

    Jamie was an amazing coordinator. We worked together as my day of coordinator, so we connected about 6 weeks out from the wedding and I really can't imagine going through the final stretch without her. She was flexible, professional, communicative, and so friendly. We had some extra complicating coordination pieces towards the end since Milwaukee was a destination wedding for us, and we weren't able to get in and start decorating the venue until about an hour and a half before the ceremony started but she was able to get everything done. We couldn't have asked for better support!

    1000% hire DTD

    I used DTD for month-of coordination for my wedding a few weeks ago. I worked with Megan and could not have been more pleased. She is SO responsive, even before one month out I could email her and she'd get back to me promptly. We had a few last minute changes and she took them like a champ and handled everything. We planned our event from out of state and Megan made it feel completely effortless. She is so professional while also being approachable and has an air of authority that no one in the wedding party will question. She was incredibly helpful at the rehearsal, as we had a friend officiating our wedding and he had never done one before. He had a lot of questions and Megan was crucial in helping him work out an quirks. She also handled all of the clean up after the reception and it was so quick! Before I knew it everything was packed up and loaded into cars - it was such a breeze. If I had to choose one vendor to recommend to other brides - it would absolutely be Megan with DTD.

    Completely stress free!

    We worked with Megan for about 5 weeks before our wedding. I wanted someone to figure out all of the logistics, tell me what to do and when to do it, and execute the entire wedding day so I could relax and basically just show up to my own wedding. Megan went above and beyond. She understood our non-traditional choices (standing ceremony, no bridal parties, no formal dances, etc.) and seamlessly worked with our vendors to make sure it all worked. I was hesitant to hire a coordinator but Megan was 100% the most valuable part of my wedding planning.

    Dare to Dream Weddings's reply:

    Thanks Kathryn! You did such a wonderful job in creating a day that really represented you as a couple while also creating a party that your guests enjoyed until the VERY end. Congrats!

    Stress free wedding!

    We worked with Jen for a full year before our wedding in September and she was amazing! She kept us on track each month, and made sure everything we wanted was included in our wedding. She had great recommendations for vendors, and had no problem working with different vendors that we wanted. We definitely felt in control of our own wedding plans, but we knew she was always there to help point us in the right direction and keep us on track. Our wedding went perfectly (as far as I know!), and we know it was all because of Jen!

    I worked with Sara S. as our Day of Coordinator. We live in Australia so I knew I wanted someone on the ground to help with all the last minute things that pop up. I honestly couldn't have done it with out Sarah. She was professional, insightful, calming and a pleasure to work with.

    Jen from Dare to Dream was our day of/month of planner for our May 27 wedding downtown Milwaukee. We met with her when we were interviewing planners and I got a good feeling right away. She was hands off up until about a month and a half before the wedding. At that point, she really stepped in to keep us on track with our timeline and making sure we had all the details in line so our wedding day could go smoothly. Jen attended a meeting at our reception venue with us to plan and also was helpful with the wedding rehearsal. Throughout our time working together I really felt like I had an advocate and friend who wanted our day to go off as perfectly as we did. We cannot say enough great things about Dare to Dream Weddings and Jen!

    We worked with Jen from Dare to Dream Weddings and she was AMAZING! We worked with her for the day of services, and first talked with her about a month out - she was super nice on the phone and went through a bunch of questions that helped us figure out what things we needed to do still and if there was anything we hadn't thought of yet at that time. Jen was super on top of everything, she would reach out after my follow up meetings with other vendors to see how those went, she reached out to our friend who was officiating to make sure that he felt prepared for the wedding, she helped us get everything to the wedding and set up. Jen also was able to roll with new things being thrown her way - we hadn't realized that we needed a few additional things in order for a family member of ours to play his guitar at the ceremony, and she was able to get things set up for him no problem. I really loved working with Jen and I'm confident our wedding would not have turned out as perfectly as it did if it weren't for Jen's help.

    I can't say enough great things about Megan at Dare to Dreams Weddings. I had most of my big plans for the wedding figured out at the time I started looking for wedding planners to help with the last month. I talked to 4 or 5 different vendors and I knew right away that Megan would be the best fit for my Type A personality. Not only is she personable and helpful but she goes above and beyond to help make your wedding day perfect.

    I ended up also hiring Megan to help make decisions related to our decor and design. It was so much easier to go to her with options and get a final "yes" or "no" response instead of spending hours deciding by myself. She also helped me get creative with designs and even came up with a unique wedding hashtag for the big day. On the actual day of the wedding everything was seamless! I couldn't imagine having set up everything I DIY'd and purchased for the venue without her!

    Day of Coordination with Dare to Dream was incredibly helpful! We were able to check-in throughout the planning process and then Dare to Dream took over right when I got stressed. On the wedding day, it was so great to know someone was making sure everything ran smoothly. Megan was great to work with - my fiance, parents, and myself - all very different people - always had positive consultations with Megan. She was professional and followed through with everything!

    I could write a million pages on why Megan is the most amazing person ever and should be involved with every wedding! From the start, we knew we had to have Megan help with our wedding. She was knowledgeable, confident (which came in handy with our very outspoken families), and really embraced our unique vision of a Tim Burton, gothic, but still romantic wedding. She went above and beyond and out of state even to find us truly unique and perfect vendors that would complete our vision. She always responded very quickly, even to my 3 am panicked emails when I became overwhelmed! Our families came to love her as much as we did and told us how invaluable she was, not only during the planning process, but for the rehearsal and day of the wedding. She was there for every step, and I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of my wedding. If something went wrong, I still to this day have no idea! She truly helped make my wedding neither I, my husband, nor any of our guests will every forget!

    I can’t say enough good things about Megan and Dare to Dream Weddings.

    My husband and I live in CA so we did everything through phone calls and emails and Megan even offered to set up Skype calls if we would like. From the very beginning Megan answered my million questions with a timely response and always had a solution to something I wasn’t sure about, whether it was a vendor or small design details.

    The weeks leading up to our wedding Megan took over everything and finished all of the final details. She worked tirelessly to make sure everything was perfect and all of the vendors knew where to be and when. Megan was easily able to get the attention of our 20 person wedding party and run our rehearsal with about 30-40 people. Our wedding day went off without a hitch - and if there were any issues I was completely unaware because Megan took care of every little thing so I didn’t have to worry and could just enjoy our big day. (Which is SO important!)

    Megan is very knowledgable of the industry, hard working, and so sweet! Not only did we love working with her but so did our family and wedding party. I can’t recommend her enough for your big day!

    I worked with Jen Ganson as a "day-of planner" and she was great! Jen starts working with you a month before the wedding and pretty much takes care of everything! She's very on top of talking with all of the vendors and is really good with email correspondence. She also meets with you and is very flexible with meeting dates which was awesome for my husband and I because we had very busy schedules and little time to meet. I couldn't be more happy with having hired Jen, and even my family commented on how nice she was at the ceremony practice/wedding! Best decision ever to hire a day of planner and to go w/ Dare to Dream Weddings :)

    I hired Megan for both the month of package, as well as a personalized design package. I started working with her about a year before the ceremony, in regards to design elements that I needed help finalizing. I told her from the start that I have very little style and no sort of ability to visualize what something will look like, so she was very helpful in confirming my design choices or offering a better suggestion. Then, a month before the wedding we met and she took charge of all the vendors for me. It was such a relief to be able to pass everything off to her! I also met with her the week of the wedding to give her all of the decorations for the reception, which she was able to set up the day of.
    They say that the mark of a good wedding planner is that you don't realize they are there, and realize at the end of the night how smooth everything went. If there were any hiccups in the day, I never learned about them, which is exactly what I needed!
    She was very sweet and easy to work with all along, and made me feel much more calm and prepared for the big day. I definitely recommend Megan if you are looking for a planner!

    Megan was wonderful to work with on our wedding. I knew that I needed a wedding planner due to my crazy schedule, but I also still wanted to be involved with the decisions. Hiring Megan was one of the best decisions we made. She was great at keeping me on track as far as creating monthly task lists for us to do and calming my nerves whenever I freaked out about something that I now realize was minor. Other than an issue out of her control, the wedding and reception went smoothly and we received so many compliments. We highly recommend Megan's services!

    I hired them for the day of the event. I was assigned Jen Ganson and she was great! We started coordinating a month ahead my wedding day, and I could have not done my wedding without her help. She was very polite, understanding and super sweet.

    Megan did an amazing job for our wedding. We did the Diamond dreams package, so we had assistance with planning including vendor recommendations, monthly to-do's, setting up the day-of timeline with vendors, and then organization on the day-of. The monthly planning and vendor recommendations was really helpful because we were planning from out of town. She also set up a budget for us so we knew about how much to spend on each vendor. She went to our tasting with us and was really helpful when talking to all vendors to know exactly what questions to ask them.

    Really the best part of having her for our wedding planner was her services on the wedding weekend. We met with her Friday to give her all the stuff for our reception and ceremony, so we didn't have to worry about it. She ran our rehearsal, as our officiant was a friend. On the actual wedding day I had nothing at all to worry about because she had set up a timeline with the vendors and was in contact with all of them throughout the process. I had one vendor contact me on the morning of the wedding, and I just sent Megan a text with their questions and she took care of everything. It was really priceless to have her there on the day of to make sure everything was on time and take care of any last minute problems. There is really nothing I wish would have gone smoother - we had a completely perfect day with no hiccups.

    Megan and Jen from Dare to Dream helped us create exactly the kind of wedding we were looking for. The support during the planning process kept us on track and on budget but it was the day-of coordination that was priceless! I didn't have to worry about anything and was truly able to enjoy the day. If I could recommend one thing, it would be to hire a coordinator for your wedding, and DTD won't disappoint!
