Dominique was the best
Ok, so this was my first time having responsibilities at a wedding. Granted, I was the groom at this particular wedding, but you know what I mean. I was the point person for a lot of things so I was running around a lot. Not only did Dominique answer all my questions I had in a calm, detailed manner, but she also helped me out big time when the caterers showed up early and set up the food in the area where the ceremony was going to be held only minutes away (big thanks again Dominique).
I can’t recommend her for your wedding more. She was so very helpful and I’m glad she could share the night with us. -

We booked Dominique for our wedding after completely changing our original wedding plans from Chicago to an Airbnb 7 months out from our date. After shopping around for planners, I was initially drawn to Dominique by how forthcoming she is with pricing, a clear understanding of what tasks she excels at, what the cost break down is for each service is. When looking at other planners, it was difficult to understand exactly what you would be paying for at the end of the wedding. Dominique was so personable and easy to work with. She went with all of my ideas (even some crazy ones) and helped guide me in the best direction to make our wedding a success. Since our wedding was at an Airbnb, we had to bring in all vendors and coordinate everything ourselves. She also was able to suggest great ideas along the way to make the day run more smoothly and help our vision come to life.
Dominique was so helpful prior to our wedding making sure everything was organized, as well as, the day of coordinating everyone’s arrival. We booked Dominique for pre-wedding planning, the day prior to the wedding for assistance setting up, and then day of coordinator services. The day of I did absolutely nothing to help set everything up and felt so confident knowing Dominque was handling everything to make it perfect for our ceremony and reception. We even joked that we wished she could have been there with the bridesmaids during the getting ready process to help us when we were slightly disorganized (unfortunately we couldn’t duplicate her to be in two places at once!) We were so thankful she was there to help coordinate our crazy friends and family. She fit right in and got things done! We cannot thank her enough for her professionalism, fun personality, flexibility and much needed humor throughout the process. -

We booked Dominique as our officiant because we saw that she had F/F LGBTQ+ wedding experience, which was really important to us. She ended up exceeding expectations by being incredibly flexible, friendly, and very experienced. She took our somewhat untraditional ceremony and made it feel so natural and romantic. She had great suggestions along the way and everyone knew what they were doing come wedding day. Dominique at Wood Violet Events + Styling really made our big day seamless and memorable. Thank you! -

When my husband and I decided we didn't want to wait until after the pandemic settled to get married, we knew we had to get creative. We needed our loved ones to witness our vows safely, but still feel like they were witnessing in person; virtual micro wedding it is! Once that decision was made, we knew making it intimate and personal was important and we wanted an officiant with warmth and personality. We found Wood Violet Events and Dominique through our other great vendors. Dominique had such amazing reviews, we knew she would deliver. From the first email, to the first meeting, we felt like we were talking to a friend. Dominique kept us calm, organized and reminded us along the way to have fun! After the wedding, we got messages and calls from family and friends asking how long we've known her and how perfect she was for our ceremony. Everyone assumed she was an old friend! That just speaks to Dominique's calling. When you meet her, you'll understand. -

My wife and I can't say how thrilled we were to have Dominique as our officiant. We had a a micro-wedding due to Covid, and while it was just immediate family and wedding party (10 person max). As a testament to how amazing Dominique is, the entire group at the wedding and it seemed that everyone who watched virtually thought we had known her for years, when in fact we had only met her via zoom a few weeks prior. Neither of us could have imagined a better person to kick start our married lives, she kept us calm on what was probably the most stressful day we have had together. We sincerely hope to someday be able hangout with our new friend. -

Dominique was a truly wonderful officiant for our wedding. We had to change up most of our wedding plans due to COVID and she was very easy to work with in getting things sorted for us. She helped us personalize our ceremony and made some excellent choices so that it was both touching and a bit funny. She takes the time to get to know you and had real enthusiasm for us. -

Abbey C. Sent on 06/28/2020Wood Violet: The Reason Our Wedding Weekend Was Perfect
Dominique and the rest of the Wood Violet team are the best, and if you don't want to read the rest of the review here's the short of it: I 10000% recommend them. We were looking for someone to take over coordination toward the month/week of our wedding. But we also wanted someone that would give us some input with regard to decorating/styling as things came up because our venue was more 'make it your own', and there was a lot to be done to make the weekend come to life. Dominique tries to create a contract that fits just what you need, and her flexibility on that front was perfect. It was also important to us that we could work with someone who was friendly but also had a strong backbone if/when they needed to take control throughout planning. I think we chose Wood Violet almost immediately after I filled out the first introduction survey because Dominique is exactly that person: the warm, welcoming friend you love&adore, but also the "cut the sh*t, I'm in charge here" leader. And I think this next point speaks volumes about her: our other vendors would tell me how amazing she was and how they loved working with her. How great is it that she had such a positive impact on not just me, but also with everyone who was involved in making our wedding happen. And lastly (although I could keep raving if anyone wants me to) we needed an officiant and Dominique is one! She comes without any of the old heavy wedding ceremony baggage, if that's what you're looking for like we were. She prepared to-the-point but loving ceremony words that outline what a marriage should be; a loving partnership. Our whole wedding weekend went off with no problems (that I know about!) and it's all because of Dominique, Jihan, and the Wood Violet team. I know without a doubt that if I host any events in the future I want Dominique/Wood Violet by my side. Thank you for everything!!! -

Working with Dominique made wedding planning a lot easier- especially for a couple planing a wedding in another state! She kept us on a reasonable timeline for planning, and she took care of the details, so we could focus on the big picture. She has a fun personality and is very well organized. We appreciated the attention to detail that she carried throughout our time working with her. Dominique's consistency and punctuality when we met with her were very much appreciated! She respected our time and was a joy to work with. -

Dominique was the perfect officiant for our outdoor elopement. We had not met her beforehand, but she came highly reviewed from our photographer. She was prompt with all email communication, did an incredible job writing a personalized ceremony script for us, and embarked on a considerable hike to marry us at our outlook over Devils Lake. Dominique helped make our day feel both calm and meaningful, exactly the way we wanted it. We couldn't have chosen a better officiant! -

Jennifer Sent on 12/27/2018So much love for Wood Violet Events!
Hiring Dominique and her team at Wood Violet Events was the best decision we made! Dominique was absolutely amazing, caring, and can make any random assortment of ideas into something gorgeous. She kept on top of us and made sure we made decisions when we needed to and if we were having trouble figuring something out she always seemed to be able to find a solution. She was an absolute delight to work with and her management and planning skills are on point. From the moment we met her we felt like we had known her forever.
As a day-of-coordinator, Dominique was a rock star. We did not have to worry about anything other than getting married. She took care of the rest! She made sure we were eating, coordinated with all of the vendors, and made sure everything was on schedule.
We cannot say enough good things about Wood Violet Events and Dominique. She is amazing and she makes things beautiful. We are truly grateful to have had such an amazing team be a part of our wedding!
