Amy + Justin's Still Water Hollow Wedding
Wow, where do I even begin with Ira + Lucy, and Victoria. When I was younger, I remember imagining what my wedding day would be like and how beautiful everything would look. It wasn’t until we got engaged and started talking about planning the wedding that reality hit me, and I wondered how I was going to be able to pull it all off. We weren’t having any luck finding a venue, when out of nowhere an old friend highly recommended Ira + Lucy to us and said that Heidi had been amazing to work with for their wedding a few years prior. I instantly went online to their website and was amazed! The first thing I saw were the beautiful farm tables they offer as rentals, and upon looking further into their portfolio I saw multiple weddings they had planned at a gorgeous venue called Still Water Hollow. I filled out the pre-consultation form and couldn’t believe that I heard a reply from Victoria the next day! She was so nice and arranged so we could meet up at Still Water Hollow to discuss wedding plans. Victoria was so kind and shared with me how excited she was about my ideas for a fall wedding, and from there the rest is history. After the meeting I knew we needed to book Ira + Lucy, and it’s honestly the best decision we could have ever made for our wedding. From the first day to the last, Victoria was able to take all my thoughts, ideas, and wants and turn them into reality. From the colors I wanted, to the flowers, the décor, the style, and the logistics she was able to make everything perfect. Another major concern I had with wedding planning was finding the right vendors, and that was absolutely no problem at all for Victoria. She works with many of these vendors quite often, so she was able to recommend who she thought would work best with us and to fit our budget. She not only helped with coordinating and scheduling, but was there with us for support at every single meeting whether it was about floral, a venue walk-though, food selections, or choosing a photographer. She was there for us this entire past year answering the countless number of questions and concerns that we had while planning. Victoria helped us to stay on track and organized every step of the way with weekly email updates and an awesome online planning tool. Then, to top it all off, Victoria and the Ira + Lucy team worked so hard the day of our wedding to make sure everything looked truly amazing. It made us so happy to know that on our wedding day our families and friends would be able to relax, have a good time, and enjoy the day without having to worry about setting things up in the morning or cleaning up at the end of the night. I would without a doubt highly recommend Ira + Lucy to anyone who is planning a wedding. Not only will they help you every single step of the way through your planning process, but they will be there your entire wedding day making sure everything goes smoothly and as planned so you can rest assured and enjoy your day. Ira + Lucy, I honestly don’t think we could ever thank you enough for all your hard work and everything you did to help us plan the wedding of our dreams. Thank you so much for everything! - Amy

I've worked as a professional photographer for twelve years and worked with so many wedding coordinators over the years and Heidi and her team are absolutely the best of the best. They are everything you want from a wedding vendor, professional and extremely good at what they do, while also be really enjoyable to work with. If you want your wedding in great hands, they are the people to hire. - Johanna and Sebastian’s Photographer, Bryan Rupp

Brooklyn + Matthew's Boho Boise Wedding
I’ll break and forge the stars anew,
Shatter the heavens with a song;
Immortal in my love for you,
Because I love you, very strong.
Your mouth shall mock the old and wise,
Your laugh shall fill the world with flame,
I’ll write upon the shrinking skies
The scarlet splendour of your name,
— Rupert Brooke

Maddy + Cameron's Lakeside Willowbridge Wedding
Oh my gosh...what an incredible wedding. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!! You and your team are absolutely incredible. - Maddy, Bride
I have had the WORSE wedding withdrawals ever! It’s such a sad feeling when it’s all over. *:( sad My heart was happy to see your name pop up this morning! I will never be able to thank you enough for everything you did for us. You are an amazing person with a heart of gold. You pulled off Maddy’s special day perfectly. I know how incredibly hard you and your staff work. Everything little tiny thing was done with so much love and attention. I LOVE seeing your “Behind the Scenes” on Instagram! It breaks my heart really!! Maddy and I have been enjoying seeing all your posts of the weddings you have been working on. We giggle because we are actually” jealous” they get to spend time you. You make the planning process so special and fun, we didn’t want it to end. You have a talent beyond words but combine it with so much love and that’s what make you so special. We have had endless compliments on the wedding thanks to you. The venue turned out spectacular and when we walked into to dinner, it was truly a wonderland. Just gorgeous and thanks to Kara, it smelled so good! I can’t wait for our pictures! I thought the sneak peeks were so awesome! We appreciate you to no end!!!! I don’t know how I could ever thank you enough. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know. I will recommend you to everyone I know!! - Jenny, MOB

FIRST LOOK WITH THE BRIDE AND HER FATHER
This is one of those moments we take care to plan... The hustle and quick pace of a wedding day has to be planned with recognizing important moments. When we know our clients have a very close relationship with their parents, we take time to make sure the mother of the bride is present to help her daughter get into her gown, followed by a first look with the bride and her Dad. It doesn't take too much time, but it's a thoughtful time to allow a moment to connect and honor the bride's parents.

#corndogwedding
Maddy and I had a running joke that this was the summer of the #corndogwedding When Maddy came to me that she wanted a late night snack for her guests and dreamed of a food truck...well let's say many many hours were spent contacting every food truck in this entire state! With summer being peak "food truck" season... we had to get creative and Horsewood Catering did on site fresh corn dog station and it was a HUGE hit! Success!
“OMG! Can I go back to Saturday!? I’ve told you this a million times, but I mean it more and more every time I tell you, you’re amazing Heidi. You have a true talent and I’m so thankful for you.”
Maddy and Cameron... what an incredible experience! Thank YOU for inviting my team and I to be part of this special time with your families. I just adore you both and will treasure our lifelong friendship! I am so blessed by you guys and am seriously missing you like crazy already! I'm so grateful that our paths crossed. Thank you for your trust! Thank you for allowing me to create and dream with you. I'll forever love corn dogs!
To the vendor team! Thank you for your dedication to making this wedding spectacular! I'm so grateful to each of you! To my team.... you guys are rock stars! The hard work! The hustle! The joy and laughter and care in every detail! I'm so proud of you!!!!
