I think you have to sometimes take reviews of wedding vendors with a grain of salt, as it's easy to write reviews based on emotions and not actual performance - be it good or bad.
After all, you're not reviewing a place for putting new tires on your car - you're reviewing people who were intimately involved in one of the most important events in your life.
However, my review of Michele and her assistant Ashley is 100% analytical and based on the job they did.
Michele is incredible. I initially hired her to primarily be a day-of onsite manager. I soon realized that despite trying to do most of the other project management myself, we really needed a pro to help with general consulting and planning. Michele was instrumental in these areas. But the real superhero talents she and Ashley possess came through in the final hour... two hours before our outdoor wedding of 180 people was about to begin, a freak storm came through. Flower vases were knocked down, table settings were torn up, muddy areas abounded, the dance floor was soaked... you name it. I was about to have a melt-down. Meanwhile, Michele remained cool as a cucumber, assured me everything was going to be fine, and they worked tirelessly to get everything tied together. And it was. The clouds parted, the sun appeared, and the ceremony and rest of the evening was absolutely flawless. Whether it was coordinating with other vendors, restocking the paper towels in the restroom, or furiously wiping down the dance floor as it got a little muddy, Michele and Ashley did it - allowing my husband and I to relax and celebrate what MANY guests told us with tremendous confidence was one of if not THE best wedding they'd ever attended (even including their own! LOL).

Michele and her staff were wonderful to work with in the planning of our daughter's March 2015 wedding. Michele was always available for meetings and returned emails and phone calls promptly. She recommended some amazing vendors to us and worked well with vendors we chose on our own. She was always mindful of our budget and helped us stretch it without compromising the wedding our daughter desired. The weeks leading up to the wedding were challenging to say the least. Extreme snow and rain threatened our plans for the private farm wedding. Michele created alternate plans to ensure the day would be perfect in every way. The week of the wedding the railroad company closed the track on the only road leading to the farm for repairs. Michele kept in contact with the railroad company and kept the vendors informed about when the track would be reopened for travel. The wedding day came and the venue was beautiful, the wedding party (all 24 of them) were where they needed to be when they needed to be there and the wedding started on time. The reception ran smoothly from start to finish and our guests had an amazing time. We could not have asked for more from our wedding planner. More...

As a groom, I thought Michele and Kristen did a great job of making the wedding planning easy, fun and actually enjoyable. I feel that Michele is very honest and open, gave us tons of options for vendors, and was a huge help. We planned the wedding from across the country and I know we couldn't have pulled off such a great wedding without her. I also can't imagine how people do weddings without a wedding planner. The day of our wedding was completely stress free because of all the work that Michele and Kristin did coordinating all our vendors and setting up everything. Would definitely recommend! More...

Michele and Kristen did an amazing job helping with my wedding. I don't understand how anyone can have a wedding without a wedding planner. Michele recommended almost all of the vendors we went with and we were not disappointed in anyone. I was an out of town bride and Michele was always a text away. Our wedding day was amazing and Michele and Kristen made it so. More...

I decided to hire Michele due to her outdoor wedding expertise. We planned my wedding for almost a year and I felt like everything was finished well within the time frame. She was very knowledgeable of the local vendors in the Lexington area and helped me to choose the right ones for my wedding. She listened and answered all of my questions no matter how silly they may have seemed in hind sight. Michele thought and planned out all of the details, and even details that I wouldn't have even considered! No matter how big or small your wedding will is, Michele can handle them all! More...

Melissa Smith and Michelle Landers are outstanding wedding planners. Their expertise and knowledge were invaluable in plannig our outdoor wedding and spared us from potential mis-steps. They are a delightful team to work with - highly professional and responsive to our needs and requests. They were generous with their time and always available to talk. Engaging them was well worth the investment and gave us peace of mind throughout the wedding planning process and the day of the event. More...

My name is Melissa and I work with Michele Landers. My concern is with the last review.....wedding date 4/28/12. Although there is two sides to a story. I will not go into the facts of what really went on,however, the last comment was absolutely and completely false. I respond because it involves myself. We kept this brides items for nearly three weeks in our office. Items that we were not responsible for but because no one wanted to deal with these items after the reception, I personally cleaned them and packed them up.....nicely and stored them for her. The day her mother finally came to pick up the items, Michele wasn't even in. Our office is on the second level with approxamialy 20 steps. Some of the items were heavy. So, I placed them down the steps in our lower lobby that has a door to the outside so her mother would not have to carry these heavy items down the stairs. They were never placed outside the building at no time and the office staff below us will testify to the fact that these items were inside the building and they watched her mother carry them from inside the building. I would have gladly helped, but her mother ran very late and I had a lunch meeting I had to go. More...

I could never fully explain how grateful I am to Michele. She was a fountain of information and eased my nerves the second I talked to her. I had a tall order for her when it came to planning my wedding and she (and my wedding) exceeded my expectations. My wedding was outside in a place that had never hosted a wedding and my mother-in-law had a LOT of guests and I had a very limited budget. I did not think my budget could include a wedding planner, but Michele saved me at least three times (probably five times, honestly) as much as she cost me. Michele was personable and confident through every aspect of the planning and the nerves associated with the planning. She is in contact with a huge crowd of wedding related vendors - from the portable toilets to the photographer. She can answer any question and deal with any problem and I cannot imagine what we would have done without her. Have I said enough? I could go on and on and still not feel like I did her justice. I would recommend her services to absolutely anyone and will forever be thankful that she was part of my special day! More...

Weddings by Michele is the best! I am a stickler for perfection and knew that no one ...no one would EVER be able to live up to my expectations. I was wrong! Michele and her staff surpassed them all. Not just once, but twice. She planned and coordinated my daughter's fairytale wedding ten years ago and then recently planned and coordinated my 35th Wedding/Reaffirmation. She was always personable yet highly professional. She managed to accomplish things that I thought were impossible. I just sat back and enjoyed our ceremony and celebration because I knew that Michele would make sure EVERYTHING was perfect. I can not express how beautiful and perfect both occasions were. I may have had the initial ideas, I took them to Michele, some she loved and knew exactly how to accomplish them. Others, she gave me options I didn't even know I had. I love her to pieces!!!!!!! She single-handedly made our dreams come true! More...

I am so happy that I met Michele at the Bridal Show in Lexington. We had a small wedding with family out of town. Michele designed our announcements for all of our friends and clients, and they were perfect.
I was so short on time that Michele even went a step further and stamped and mailed them for us. Then we used one of our wedding photos (with our children) for Christmas cards. She once again assisted us with the text and did a beautiful job printing the
pictures. We are very happy with Michele's expertise and assistance.

Hiring Michele was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding. I knew right away she was a perfect match for me. She was on top of every detail and made our day stress free and memorable. When someone can pull off a June wedding in 100 degree weather OUTSIDE perfectly, you know you got the best! Now I'm training along with her to become a wedding planner myself in hopes to be as organized, knowledgeable, and detail oriented as she is with her business. Thanks again Michele..... More...
