Where do we begin?! Justine has been an absolute saint helping us with planning our wedding and we wouldn’t have been about to do it without her! With the stress that comes with planning a wedding, I think Justine doubled as a therapist as well She is patient, professional, and so supportive! Having her there on our wedding day allowed us to enjoy our time and we are so so incredibly grateful to have come across her! We love you Justine!

Mills Memories was a true pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication was professional from beginning to end, and Justine was a joy to collaborate with. The event space was open and ready for us to set up on time, which helped our day run smoothly. I would absolutely work with Mills Memories again and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.
Response from vendor•Jul 27, 2025DJ Samrock - you are the man!! Thank you so much for showing up early and being clear in communication. Your flexibility and personality kept smiles on everyone's faces throughout the wedding. I’m so glad everything went smoothly and that you felt taken care of from start to finish. Thank you for everything you do. I can't wait to work with you again!OOTOPHOTO
From the moment I met Justine, I knew Mills Memories was an awesome wedding planner. She listened to the very creative couple on their ideas and helped plan each one to make it happen. The information she shared with me as a fellow vendor was a blessing! It was only the details that mattered, direct, to the point, no fluff, beautifully outlined and easy to understand. You want someone like her to focus on essential information without all the unnecessary distractions. I appreciate this, as it's completely different and better than most planners I've worked with. The quality of her work and dedication is truly high-end and professional. She went with the flow and kept the entire day running smoothly. I highly recommend Mills Memories!
Response from vendor•Jul 20, 2025Holly!!! You were a dream to work with. I am so grateful for those kind words. Weddings can be stressful but they don't need to be. It's all about the details; the ones you see and don't see. It was a joy to work alongside this couple and peers, like you, who helped to make the creative vision become a reality. This day wouldn't have been the same without you. And would you just look at these gorgeous pictures - jaw dropped! I'm looking forward to working with you again - thank you so much for capturing the warmth of the day.Saved by Justine!
Two weeks before our 20 guest micro-wedding, I realized I needed a professional coordinator’s help. Help with brainstorming timeline issues, last minute details, and I needed someone to tell me if I was forgetting anything. We were unbelievably lucky to have Justine respond to my cry for help. Without her, I truly don’t know if I would have made it TO the day with my head on straight. Justine’s calm demeanor put me at ease immediately, and we became fast friends! She was kind, organized, and totally unflappable. She made sure every detail was handled, she was in contact with every vendor beforehand, and my husband and I were able to just enjoy the day Even the most intimate micro-wedding’s need a point person (who is NOT the bride or groom). So, if you’re on the fence, let this be your sign: Justine is worth it. She was the calm in the chaos, and hiring her was one of the best decisions we made!

Response from vendor•Jun 19, 2025Kim! It’s been a long time since I’ve met someone and immediately felt comfortable with them. Your warmth and kindness not only made it easy to help you and Bert with your wedding but it motivated me to go above and beyond for you two. It was an honor to stand beside you in those precious moments leading up to you walking down the aisle - moments I will never forget. The first time I met Bert, he was talking to me from the window upstairs welcoming me in the house so we’re pretty much family and I expect a Christmas card every year lol. I’ll talk to you soon! Congratulations again!
