Kaila and Jason’s Wedding at Hancher Auditorium in Iowa City, Iowa

Dreamy Wedding at Hancher Auditorium in Iowa City, Iowa

A Fateful Night at Joe’s Place

Despite having crossed paths multiple times through mutual friends, Kaila and Jason never quite connected. That all changed one night at Joe’s Place downtown. As soon as they locked eyes, Kaila called Jason over to talk. From that moment on, their story began. Fast forward nearly seven years, and their bond is stronger than ever.

Kaila and Jason’s relationship is a testament to the beauty of growing together. Whether it’s dancing the night away, exploring new cuisines, or simply enjoying a peaceful yoga session, every moment they share is cherished. As they look forward to their future together, their story is a beautiful reminder that sometimes, the most magical connections happen when you least expect them.

A Need for Timely Coordination

Planning a wedding can be a daunting task, even for the most laid-back couples. For Kaila and Jason, staying on top of a timeline and ensuring every detail is accounted for was a priority. That’s why they chose Emily, owner of Soirée Wedding Planning, and the Essentials Package, to help bring their dream wedding to life.

“The biggest area we need help with is staying on top of a timeline so we don’t miss anything and help the day-of,” Kaila and Jason explained. As a relaxed and easygoing couple, they knew that planning a big event like a wedding could lead to stress. They wanted to avoid any potential pitfalls and ensure that everything ran smoothly from start to finish.

One of the most significant reasons they chose Emily was her ability to manage the day-of coordination. “The day-of event planning is a big need. I don’t want to make my family or friends feel like they are working on our day,” Kaila said. They wanted their loved ones to fully enjoy the celebration without the burden of handling logistics.
