Reviews of First Look Events (Event Planner)

Frances Marron

Brynn is AWESOME! I have been photographing weddings for about 15 years and have worked with lots and lots of different planners over the years. Brynn's creativity and attention to detail is truly among the best of the best! I highly recommend her to anyone!! She is organized and her timelines are always on point. Her creative vision is impeccable. She is constantly pushing the bar and doing things differently and out of the box, which both her clients, and I as a photographer, absolutely LOVE. We recently worked on a wedding together where she quite literally hung the wedding cake from the chandelier. It was incredible. This woman is a trend-setter like no other and I have not a doubt in my mind that she will continue to do spectacular things and create awe-inspiring weddings. I am honored to work with such a fantastic wedding planner!!

Brynn was exceptional! She is extremely knowledgable and detail-oriented not to mention kind, efficient, and helpful! She was able to work with our clinic's (very tight) timeline and budget and helped us coordinate an amazing open house event. Thank you, Brynn!

Jodi Levine Ungar

Where do we begin!! Brynn is INCREDIBLE! We've been planning our wedding with Brynn for the past year and a half and she has been the absolute best person to work with. She is beyond organized, has an eye for detail, is unbelievably creative, and brought our vision to life. Our wedding day was perfect. We couldn't have asked for a more professional, caring, and talented planner to work with us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the best experience we could ask for! If you're looking for a wedding planner, First Look Events should be your first pick.

I have had the pleasure of working with Brynn of First Look Events on countless weddings and events. Brynn not only has an impeccable eye for detail, but she is always pushing the boundaries of creativity. Her ability to design and execute events is a true gift that is fueled by her passion to tell each clients story through her work.

I worked with Brynn to plan my wedding and really loved my experience with her. She gave excellent vendor recommendations, she recommended the venue I ended up selecting, and was very responsive to my emails. I really appreciate that she listened to me throughout the process. She's also super fun, which is an added bonus! Truly she made the wedding planning experience less stressful for me, which is what I needed.

I met with several wedding planners before meeting with Brynn and immediately after meeting knew I wanted to work with First Look Events and signed our contact the same night. Even though we signed a month of contract Brynn kept in contact constantly to check in to send design ideas, dress/veil suggestions, and vendor tips. Lindsay worked with us the month before our wedding and felt like a god send. Lindsay organized all of our vendors, put out fires, and made us feel at ease in a stressful time. If anything went wrong on our day, we had no idea, and I don’t think many couples can say that. Our wedding was stunning and organized and it was hugely because we hired First Look Events. Thank you so much for your services, we couldn’t be more grateful for your hard work!

Brynn works magic. Not only is she one of the most visionary people I know, she is professional, organized, and forward thinking. Brynn anticipates and is always prepared. As a fellow event professional, I highly enjoy working with someone who is so uniquely on-task, managing a perfect balance between professionalism and passion for her industry and vision. First Look is always one of my go-to recommendations when a client asks me for planning services.

Holly Yee

Brynn of First Looks Events is absolutely amazing! She is organized, incredibly creative, and wonderfully energetic. I am always amazed by the unique ideas she has and her exquisite attention to detail. The weddings she coordinates are absolutely gorgeous and her enthusiasm for weddings is contagious. If you really, I mean really, want to enjoy the planning part of your wedding, Brynn is your lady!!

Jacqueline Sturgeon

I would highly recommend hiring Brynn! At first I was on the fence about hiring a wedding planner since I typically like to do things on my time frame and in my own way. Brynn was really flexible and was able to incorporate all my wants/needs while including her expertise to create a beautiful wedding. The wedding was very well run, beautiful, and so much fun! You can't go wrong with hiring Brynn.

James Stanaway

Deciding to work with First Look Events was the best decision we could have made when planning our wedding. From the first time I spoke with Brynn, I knew she understood the vision we had for our wedding and would be the perfect person to help us facilitate bringing that vision to reality. Brynn immediately jumped in and helped us create a special design at our location that was beyond anything that I could have imagined. It fit my partner and my personalities perfectly, from the "in-the-round" setup of the ceremony, to the tasting stations at the restaurant, to the lighting and furniture on the bridge. And day-of, Alex took care of every little detail. Having her there to make sure everything was running smoothly and taking care of the little details ensured that we could step back and really take in all of the love that surrounded us. It was a magical day, and First Look Events played a huge role in making that possible!

Ryan Mclean

WOW WOW WOW!! Is all I can say about Brynn and the First Look events team. I own a catering company called Mountain Crust, we do roughly 100 weddings a year and work with tons of planners. Brynn is at the top of the list she is so personable, always calm, very organized, It's incredible. If I ever get married I know who will be running the show!! Hats off to you Brynn. We can't to work another wedding with you.

Danielle DeFiore

Brynn with First Look Events, located in Denver Colorado is hands down one of the best wedding planners in the state! Her professionalism, creativity, and expertise are unmatched in the industry. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is planning their Colorado wedding!! - Danielle DeFiore Wedding Photographer

As our day of coordinator, Brynn was a huge part of making our wedding the perfect day it was. I could tell from our conversations on the phone early on that she would strike the right balance of offering advice & guidance to Bryan + I while fully incorporating our vision for the day--and she did! I 100% trusted her judgement given her experience as a wedding planner and specifically with our wedding venue (Devil's Thumb Ranch). As a bride, it made a huge difference to know that Brynn and Lindsey her colleague were on top of everything leading up to the date, and to make sure everything ran smoothly. Cannot thank the team enough for their professionalism and an incredible day - and would highly recommend for anyone considering a wedding in the Denver area!

Carrie Auxier

Where to even begin?! First Look Events with Brynn was such an amazing experience from beginning to end and even days after the ceremony for me, my fiancé, family and all of my guests. From our very first consultation, I had that instinctual feeling that Brynn was the perfect fit for us! She was completely professional, driven, creative, timely, considerate, respectful, kind, funny and really everything in between that you would love in a wedding planner and a best friend, which I felt like she became during the wedding weekend! We invested in the “partial planning package”, and it was perfect for our needs. Brynn was so easy to talk to and reach throughout the planning process, and especially that month before the event. She helped answer all questions and was there to produce feedback on design choices. She totally “got” me and brought my visions to life! She recommended THE BEST vendors- our entire wedding party and family was SO impressed with the entire team throughout the event. I could go on, on & on about how absolutely fabulous our experience was- I HIGHLY recommend First Look events!

Micailee Bartch

First Look Events was amazing to work with. I had the pleasure of working with both Brynn and Lindsey. Both of them were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond every step of the way. They both are extremely organized, creative, and professional making it easy to communicate and plan our big day. I would (and already have to friends) recommend First Look Events!

Lenee reyes

My husband and I wanted to get married in Beaver Creek, Colorado and when the time came it was difficult to try and plan everything while coming from out of town. We were able to get in touch with Brynn at First Look Events and I must say from the first time we spoke over the phone, she was amazing! She was able to set up bi-weekly Skype sessions to actually sit down and get to know us, plan what we wanted in our dream wedding, make sure everything was being planned to our specs and she was there every step of the way with the upmost professionalism, organization, people skills and punctuality. On the big day I can honestly say not all but most of the stress was relieved thanks to Brynn and her team, she made sure everything was going to plan people were where they were supposed to be. From the morning to the end of the night everything went to plan while Brynn and her team were there every step of the way. Over all it was amazing and beautiful and could not of done it without them. I can say without a doubt they aren't just there to make a wedding happen they are there because they truly love and care about what they do! Highly recommend!

Holly Tharp

Hiring Brynn was by far one of the best decisions I made while planning our wedding. She helped to keep me focused on the design we had laid out for the wedding. She was super responsive to emails and text messages. She was so easy to work with and did an excellent job leading up to the wedding. Day of the wedding, everything went exactly as planned. There was nothing that I knew of that went wrong. If it did, since we had spent so much time talking leading up to the wedding she knew what I would want day of the wedding. She did a great job and really made everything run smoothly. I was thrilled with her planning. Best decision I made in our planning process.

Sierra Erickson

Brynn and the First Look Events team is Amazing! Brynn helped me plan my ceremony and reception down to where the last candle will be placed. She made everything so stress free! She listened to what I wanted in a wedding and made it happen, from helping me with wonderful vendors, to getting the shy flower girl down the aisle before my grand entrance. Hands down, if you're looking for a wedding planner choose First Look Events!

Jenny Mears

Brynn is absolutely amazing! She is extremely detailed oriented and so incredibly easy to work with! I have worked with Brynn on quite a few weddings and she and her team are organized, efficient, personable, and go above and beyond! Brynn will work with you on your vision and make it a reality! As a vendor, anything I need for set up or delivery Brynn is on top of it! It puts my mind at ease and makes my job almost effortless. I know with every wedding or event she plans we look forward to meeting the amazing clients she gets to work with and are honored to work with Brynn and her team every time! I truly believe having a wedding/event planner is key to a successful, less stress, and spectacular day! Brynn and her team meet this completely!

Laura Friedman

Brynn was amazing to work with throughout the entire process of planning a destination wedding. We got married in Vail, Colorado and Brynn was instrumental in recommending venues, photographers, and DJs. We had the best team on the day-of and I wouldn't have done anything differently. Brynn put together the exact wedding I asked for. The only surprise was me and my husband getting the flu, but unfortunately, that's the one thing the wedding planner can't fix. Brynn's vast experience and excellent reputation in the area make her easy to work with for you as the bride/groom, but also the other vendors. She is committed and efficient and very responsive. I would recommend Brynn to anyone planning a wedding in the Denver or surrounding area.

Christina Kiffney

First Look takes such great care of you! Brynn listens to every client and makes sure your wedding or party reflects you perfectly. Plus she's super fun to work with. Definitely five stars!

Jeff&Mercy Hanson

My now husband and I live in Michigan and were looking for an event planner to help make the vision for our Colorado mountain wedding come to life. From the first interview, we knew Brynn and First Look events were the one. During the initial interview, prior to signing a contract with us, she offered suggestions for venues where we could hold the festivities. She is approachable warm and kind but also handles business in a very effective an efficient manner. After the initial consultation, she spent time putting together a style file for us. She worked with us to curate a file that would inspire our approach to wedding planning for the year. It got to the point where I trusted her vision so much, that I felt comfortable deferring the decision making to her because I knew it would be perfect. She helped guide us through this journey and was able to get us what we wanted while keeping the budget in mind. The crazy thing is that on the day, what she created was beyond what even I thought possible. The details that made our day so special and specific to us as a couple came from her. First Look will always be my go to for any event I plan in Colorado. I might even fly her to Michigan for her expertise =). Thank you Brynn, for everything you have done for us this year and for making our day unforgettable.

Allison Cohan

To work with Brynn and her team at First Look Events is to be truly seen and understood. Brynn took her time over the year we were planning, to get to know me and my partner and the core of our relationship. In knowing us, she took our themes and ran with them with her eye for creative design and her drive to meticulously carry it all out. Brynn is equal parts creative and visionary as she is responsible and task oriented. This is a rare combination for anyone, and the ideal one in a wedding planner. Brynn eased my anxious heart and perfectionistic mind many many times over again. On the day of, when our friends and family asked, "was it everything you wanted," it was a shock and a joy for me to earnestly say, "yes, and it still exceeded all of my expectations." Anyone who has the pleasure to work with Brynn and her team is incredibly lucky.

Conor Swanson

Brynn did an incredible job executing our wedding. She is extremely detail oriented and I never had to worry about anything. She was able to orchestrate everything perfectly. From the rehearsal dinner to the reception we couldn't have been more pleased.

Erin Wochos Hornstein

Brynn (and the team at First Look Events) is incredible. As the owner of an event floral design company, I work closely with Brynn and her clients and have experienced her attention to detail first hand for almost 8 years. Brynn is a true advocate for her brides and coordinates details seamlessly. She is capable of bringing large teams of vendors together to execute unique an creative visions. She will make your special day unique and remove any of the stress of logistics in the process.

Ashley Wagener

Brynn is absolutely incredible and worth every penny!!! I was planning an out-of-state wedding and my previous wedding planner canceled on me and that is when Brynn came to my rescue just 3 months before my big day. She was able to jump right in and align / coordinate with all the vendors right away. I could tell that she had a passion not just for the wedding industry but also for my husband & I. She genuinely cared about us and wanted to make our day as special as possible. Brynn was always available by phone or email - and responded immediately. I could tell by her professionalism that she knew how to coordinate and plan fabulous weddings. And not to mention, her personality was contagious!! The second I began to stress about the wedding (minor details) she reminded me of what was really important and why I was getting married. Therefore, with the help of Brynn my wedding turned out amazing. I was blessed to have Brynn be part of my big day!

Samantha Wagner

As someone who had to plan a wedding in Cheyenne, Wyoming from Washington, D.C. --- Brynn from First Look seriously made the planning a breeze. My husband and I unfortunately weren't able to do the fun things like taste test food and Brynn expertly hooked us up with a fantastic caterer out of Denver and we couldn't be more thankful. Brynn was also a dream the weekend of our wedding. There was an issue with one of the deliveries of the rentals on Friday evening --- while we went off and were able to celebrate at our rehearsal dinner, Brynn and her assistant stayed behind until the vendors arrived. And on the day of, when most days Cheyenne can expect wind and cooler weather --- we received no wind and blazing hot sun! Brynn and her assistant quickly went into action to pull all the sides up on the tent so our guests weren't melting. On top of that, she took all of the decorations that I had planned for the big day (flowers, candles, napkins, spurs, etc.) and amazingly curated them on the tables for a beautiful display. Cannot recommend this vendor enough!

Caroline Butler Davey

It was a pleasure to work with Brynn and the team at First Look Events! Responsive, prompt and organized, Brynn made the planning process easy and stress free so my fiancee (now husband) and I could enjoy it. She made a point of understanding our vision and priorities and, coordinating with all our vendors, helped translate them into a comprehensive aesthetic for our wedding that was beyond gorgeous. The First Look team were rock stars on the day of, and made the whole event run seamlessly - all we had to do was show up! I cannot recommend Brynn and First Look highly enough!

Olivia Gallion

Thanks to Brynn, I was completely stress-free on my wedding day. Considering I DIY-ed a lot of aspects of our wedding and had a pretty specific vision of how it would all come together, I never thought that would be possible, but Brynn is a true miracle worker! She was by my side in the months leading up to the big day, planning out all the tiny details and ensuring every new design idea fit into my bigger picture. In random moments, she'd send texts with new inspirations that added the perfect personal touch, which made Kurt and I feel like we were always on her mind. She truly took the time to get to know us as a couple, and the end result on the day of was even more magical than we ever could have dreamed. One thing that really stood out to me is how much she cares about *everyone* involved in the wedding. She took the extra time to talk to my parents and quickly erased any of their troubles or anxiety, which was HUGE. Worth every penny!

Laura Dick

Perfection!! I can't say enough good things about First Look Events. Brynn took care of everything and then some. Each detail was so completely thought out and taken care of. I trusted her with the entire day and she far, far, over delivered. Not only is she professional and an expert at what she does, but she took time to get to know my entire family and connect with us. She was right there when you needed her and felt like this invisible guardian angel all day. By the end of the day I didn't want her to go! I just wanted her to stay and join the family! Working with First Look Events was truly a dream come true. And to top it all off, she has so many connections in the industry that we were able to work with some seriously amazing vendors as per her recommendation.

Yan Volodarsky

Brynn is one of a kind! At times it may be a challenge to keep clients satisfied and your vendors happy at the same time, but not for Brynn and her team. First Look Events knows how to bring people together and successfully put any event into fruition. First Look Events thinks outside the box and really challenges us and our team to create magical installations. Without Brynn's beautiful ideas we would just be another lighting company. Thank you so much from Elite Entertainment.

Laura Spector

My husband and I hired Brynn for full wedding planning and to help with our rehearsal dinner coordination. I strongly recommend her for these services! Brynn was very responsive to emails (even when out of town for other weddings). She helped recommend quality companies (for the most part... we didn't love the lighting and draping group so much mostly because of how expensive they were for what they provided (elite) but everyone else was great!). Where Brynn really shined was on the wedding day. Having her to tell me where to go and what to do took SO much stress out of the day! I couldn't have asked for a better planner and for things to go smoother the day of. The only suggestion I would have would be for Brynn to be a little more budget conscious. She would provide us with these amazing recommendations that we would fall in love with but then we went quite a bit beyond our budget. To be fair, this was clearly partly our fault for having expensive taste, but it would be nice to have the low price options first to keep budget items in check. I think Brynn's price for her services is also very reasonable. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Alison Connolly

I can't say enough good things about Brynn. You may not think you need her now, but I assure you you do. Her level of experience is evident, her ability to take charge is awesome, and most importantly she is great to work with! I am someone who likes to be in control of things and handing them off to someone I wasn't confident in would have been hard, but with Brynn I had so much confidence I was handing off everything (and then some!) and knew it would be handled as well or even better than what I would have been able to do myself. She also has a great gauge on what to just charge ahead with and what warranted coming to us and asking our opinion, her judgement was spot on. Not to mention that on our wedding day we had to change everything last minute (65 and sunny unexpectedly turned into 40 and dumping snow and the ENTIRE wedding day plan had to be shifted and rearranged last minute) and with Brynn onboard the Plan B ended up coming out better than our original Plan A. No joke. And it is worth stating again, that even if it weren't for the last minute weather issue we still utilized (and needed!) Brynn's assistance in those final weeks. It is so helpful and necessary and it was an added bonus to have someone with decision making ability that you are NOT related to- that can help a lot :) Brynn is the best, hire her today, the sooner the better. At first you just email with her a ton, which is very helpful, you can ask opinions, recommendations or have someone to confirm ideas and make suggestions and then during the crunch time (2 weeks prior through wedding day) she is your go-to person. Call her and chat with her now, you will be so glad you did.

Brooke Van Valkenburg

Brynn was incredible in planning our perfect wedding day. With crazy work schedules, we knew we needed someone to handle planning the wedding of our dreams and Brynn was perfect for it. We didn't even meet with anyone else after our first meeting because we knew she was perfect for us. She did so much work behind the scenes that made our lives SO much easier. It was SO worth having a wedding planner. Throughout the entire planning process, Brynn would respond almost immediately to emails, despite her crazy schedule of meetings & 2 kids or weekends full of weddings. This made her really shine in the planning process. She also was very kind, lighthearted and fun to be around when having planning meetings. She takes time to invest in the relationship because she knows that it is an intimate one and she immediately felt like our friend. The week and day of, Brynn was amazing. Everything went off without a hitch, and if it didn't - we had no idea because she blocked any and all chaos from us so that we could enjoy ourselves. The decor, food, details - everything - was stunning and the design she envisioned was elegant, timeless, and exactly what we wanted. Brynn was incredibly creative and has a brilliant knack for great designs. We were able to trust her vision completely. Our only concern throughout the process was we felt the budget grew on us and that the quotes came in higher than expected. We would have preferred to use cheaper vendors for some items to save money. Besides that, Brynn was an incredible asset to our wedding and we simply could not have had the most amazing wedding without her. We are so grateful for her expertise, personality and responsiveness. We highly highly recommend First Look!!

McCall Burau

As a wedding photographer, I have worked with a wide spectrum of professionalism and competence when it comes to wedding planners. Brynn and her team are at the top of my list. Brynn is very professional while still being approachable and fun. She is constantly checking in with her clients to make sure their needs are met and she fiercely protects their bubble of bliss from any issues that may arise during the wedding day. In addition to just being a fun person to work with, she is so creative. Every wedding I see of hers I find myself saying "what a cool idea!". If I could work with First Look Events for every wedding I would in a heartbeat.

Yvette Tong

Brynn created a baby shower for me that was beyond what I could have imagined! She was so easy and wonderful to work with. Extremely accommodating and went above my expectations. Everything went smoothly and all I had to do was relax and enjoy the event. Everyone couldn't stop raving about the food, florals, and decorations that she put together. It was truly an unforgettable day. I would highly recommend her!

Kathy Nolan

We hired First Look to plan our daughter’s wedding this past July 4th. Not only was Brynn fantastic, but her assistant was as well! We knew Brynn would not be able to be there the day of the wedding because of a previous commitment. Alex was the day of planner. We had a hail storm, which created a delay. She was composed and made everyone (in particular the bride) feel confident that all would be great...which it was! Thanks to Brynn and Alex all the details were amazing and perfect!!! Couldn’t be happier that we chose them!!

Charity Murow

I wish I could give Brynn 10 stars because she deserves it! Brynn and her team are truly unbelievable! My husband and I wanted to get married in Denver but we live in Omaha, Nebraska. We interviewed at least 5 wedding planners and knew immediately that Brynn had the energy and the drive we were looking for in a wedding planner. From that moment forward, we had zero wedding-related stress. Brynn handled EVERYTHING professionally and efficiently. Brynn was an absolute doll to work with - she made the wedding planning process easy, fun and stress free. If there were any issues or snafus at our wedding, neither of us are aware any. Brynn designed the wedding of our dreams. I thought I was living in a fairytale the entire day. We could never thank Brynn enough for curating the perfect wedding day - the best day of our lives. Everyone should choose Brynn as a wedding planner if they want a beautiful wedding and a stress free process!

Bonnie Savage

I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed working with the team at First Look Events. I chose to do partial coordination and from beginning to end they helped me work through every detail to make sure our wedding day was just what we wanted. Brynn really thinks outside the box and her creative ideas helped bring our vision to life. Working with her prior to the wedding was so fun. I enjoyed thinking through the details and she was always there when I needed support. Alex and Kate helped to execute our day flawlessly. I didn’t have to think about a thing besides my new husband and our friends and family. Everything was handled and they anticipated not only our needs but the needs of my family and friends as well. The entire team was professional but also got to know us well and I now count them as friends! As someone who has worked in event planning before, I can’t tell you how nice it is to work with people you can trust to make decisions for you and just enjoy your day. Having a wedding coordinator is truly worth the investment and I would highly recommend First Look Events!

Katie Swanson

First Look Events was amazing to work with for our wedding!! Brynn’s knowledge and expertise as well as relationships with the vendors made our day perfect! Alex and Jackie took excellent care of my husband and I on the wedding day! They made it stress free so we could relax and celebrate without worrying about details. Brynn ensures every last detail is thought of and taken care of to ensure the perfect wedding day! I would highly recommend First Look Events to all couples!
