Green Bay Wedding Planner | Northwoods Event Services

inspired by the calm of the Northwoods

Planning a wedding in Green Bay can feel exciting at the start … until the decisions pile up.

Vendors. Layouts. Timelines. Design choices. Guest logistics. Suddenly, you’re expected to make hundreds of decisions you’ve never made before, planning the largest celebration you’ve likely ever planned by yourself, all while trying to keep everything cohesive.

That’s where we come in.

As Green Bay Wedding Planners, we support Green Bay and surrounding couples who want to enjoy more than just their wedding, but their engagement as well.  We step in during the planning process to help you make decisions, organize details, and build structure, and then carry that structure through to your wedding day execution.

If you’re planning a wedding and feel stuck somewhere between “I’ve started” and “I need help pulling this together,” this is exactly where we step in.

Green Bay Wedding Planner Services

Wedding days don’t run smoothly by chance. They happen through detailed planning and coordination. 

Common issues we prevent:

  • Vendors arriving at conflicting times

  • Ceremony delays caused by setup 

  • Family members being assigned tasks instead of enjoying the day

  • Reception timeline falling behind before dinner even starts

  • Outdoor ceremonies scrambling due to weather shifts

You shouldn’t be managing any of that while you’re getting married.

Wisconsin wedding planner reviews from clients
  • Erika was truly a lifesaver throughout the wedding process. She stepped in and took over everything, making what could have been stressful feel so easy and enjoyable. I never even realized all the moving parts happening behind the scenes because she handled them so flawlessly, which allowed me to stay completely present and soak in every moment of my wedding day. Beyond being an incredible coordinator, I now consider Erika a friend — she cared about us and our day as if it were her own. I can’t recommend her enough!

    - Addison, 2025 Bride

  • I am a new mother and I was trying to manage finding time to pump during the wedding reception, and when there was finally a good time, after the dance floor opened up, I had completely forgot about it. I was having a good time and dancing, when Erika came up to me to check if I was able to pump. I was so thankful she reminded me and I went and took some time to do that. Even tho I wasn’t the bride, she made sure I was taken care of too. Erika really cares about the entire wedding party and family. She is so thoughtful.

    - Kenzie, 2025 Maid of Honor

  • Erika was excellent and was ready for anything that could possibly go wrong. She was a steady rock through the craziness of a wedding morning. Would highly recommend her to help ease the stress of your big day.

    - Kelsey M

  • NWES is incredible! Erika is highly detail oriented and exceeded my expectations! Her love for weddings and for her couples is unmatched. As a wedding DJ I work with many vendors and she strongly stood out from the rest. If you are looking for a wedding planning service, THIS is your destination. Can't wait to work together again!

    - Alec, Exceeding Sounds

  • Erika was incredible! She helped me relax and enjoy our wedding day. She was reassuring and consistent in her communication and work! I'd definitely recommend her for any of your wedding events!

  • If you're in need of a wedding planner or day-of-coordinator, we highly recommend Erika! She is so professional, kind and extremely attentive to your detail. Your wedding day will be seamless with her in your corner!

    - Heather, Salem Media Productions

  • Working with Northwoods Event Services was such a great experience! Communication was easy, clear, and timely. Erika was personable and friendly from start to finish. The wedding timeline was incredibly organized and made the day flow seamlessly - she was always prepared and had everyone’s back. It was clear how much care she put into helping the couple throughout the day. Overall, Erika was amazing to work with - I’d highly recommend her to other couples and vendors alike!
