Karli + David's Fall Idaho Willowbridge Wedding
Where to even begin with Ira and Lucy! They were the very first decision that we made in planning our wedding, and also the best. We were lucky enough to work with Erin as our senior coordinator. Within planning a wedding, it is impossible that everything goes smoothly, but through the ups and downs, Erin walked alongside us and made sure we made the right decisions and that everything was going to work out perfectly for us. She spent so much time meeting with us, working tirelessly on our wedding, Facetime calls, vendor meetings, etc. and went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. She made sure that we left no stone unturned as we planned this day, so that the day of the wedding we would have nothing to worry about. She communicated with vendors and made sure everything was properly coordinated. She was simply amazing. I seriously cannot imagine what planning our wedding would have been like without Erin. - Karli

We had the pleasure of having Ira + Lucy plan our dream wedding. Heidi truly understood what we envisioned our wedding to look and feel like. She was attentive to my needs, even when I'd text her frantically at all hours of the night. She and her staff made our wedding day more than perfect, there were NO stones left unturned. I can't recommend her enough!

Leah + Bart
These two are the epitome of laid back (though Leah likes to say “easy peasy”)! From our first meeting, I had to contain my excitement about their modern minimalism vision! I left the consultation with fingers and toes crossed hoping they decided to book with us...and they did!
I loved the planning process with these two and learning more and more about them. A few months into the process, we had some sad news that Leah was diagnosed with skin cancer. But, in true Leah fashion, that too was easy peasy! She took her arm sling off the day before engagement photos and still rocked the session even without being able to do her normal hair/makeup...and still looked gorgeous. Oh, and I’ll also mention that they had to replace their septic system, had some emergency vet visits for their pup AND Leah was traveling for a solid 1.5 months RIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING! Like seriously...she flew back into town 2 days prior to saying “I do”.

And the whole time they were both cool, calm and collected. Check out the photos from this inspiring/refreshing design!
Bart and Leah - thank you for letting us be a part of your day!

After seeing Ira and Lucy’s portfolio and reading their mission statement to design thoughtful and remarkable weddings, I knew they were the perfect team to help me plan my wedding while I was living out of state. From our first phone conversation to our sparkler send off, senior coordinator Victoria Haney went above and beyond to make my wedding day a dream come true. Most importantly, she consistently listened carefully to both my fiancé’s hopes and mine for our wedding day to ensure that all our expectations were met. She remembered even the smallest details I mentioned along the way, calmed my worries no matter what time of day, was creative and innovative when it came to the wedding design, was resourceful and well connected to our vendors, logical when talking through our mutual decision making and exceedingly kind and patient throughout the entire process. I cannot say enough about how Victoria was an advocate for me, my fiancé and my family, in order to make sure the day was everything we all wanted it to be. Victoria is incredibly talented and dedicated to her work. I would (and have already!) recommend Ira and Lucy to anyone planning a wedding, no matter how big or small.

Johanna + Sebastian's Boho Lakeside Wedding
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

Sophine + Caspar's Sun Valley Winter Wedding
Sophine and Caspar fell in love vacationing in Sun Valley and wanted to share their beloved Idaho experience with their dearest friends and family. Caspar spent many winters with his family in Sun Valley and sharing this place with their Australian guests was a must for them! Planning from "down under", okay, maybe way too cliche there, Sophine reached out to us to help her bring her vision to life. It was quite the fete! the best part was how much it snowed, come the wedding day! We went from bare ground to almost two feet! It was a winter wonderland! Thank you Sophine and Caspar for having Ira + Lucy part of your incredible wedding! I think you have officially redefined what it means to party!

Guests were shuttled from the Limelight Hotel to the base of the Gondola where they were met with champagne before riding up to the Roundhouse for cocktails, apps and live music from Tylor and the Train Robbers. The following morning, guests shuttled out for snowmobiling, or enjoyed down time in Sun Valley and Ketchum shopping, dining or enjoying the spa.

Caitie + Phil's Stanley Wedding
You guys are champs! Happiness is an understatement, and I’m speaking for both my husband and I and my parents. You guys went above and beyond. It was literally everything we could have dreamed of and so much more. Every detail was perfect and we knew we didn’t have to worry about anything. I have never seen my parents in such good moods. Every single guest said it was literally the best wedding ever and I know they weren’t bs’ing me. We blew people’s minds while we married our best friend and that’s the effect we wanted :) - Katie
