So thrilled to share another vendor spotlight with you this week, this time with

Colorado Wedding Planner Maggie Boesen Co.

Maggie and I share a heart for intimate events, and I just melted the first time I saw that the headline on her website is “we focus on the joy of gathering.” Weddings are such a unique time to get to really ground into the joy of quality time, with your favorite people all in one spot, while the joy and love are just overflowing. It’s such a beautiful touch point to look back on throughout your journey together. It’s one of my core values in the couples I love to create with!

So I’m so excited to share more of Maggie’s inspiration and vision with you today!

Thanks so much for joining us today, Maggie! Can you introduce yourself for our readers?

I’m Maggie, a wedding planner based in Denver, Colorado. I started Maggie Boesen Co. in 2019 but began my career in event planning over 10 years ago after graduating with a degree in event management. Before breaking out on my own, I worked alongside other planners and at venues honing my planning chops. Other than weddings, I helped plan wine, beer, and food festivals.

What got you started in planning weddings?

I’ve always LOVED weddings. The first planner I worked with mostly focused on larger community events, but I had the opportunity to help her with a couple of weddings and thought they were so special. After moving to Colorado, I noticed a lot of venues required a day of coordinator, so that’s what led me to take the leap and create my own planning company.

What inspires you most in your work (and/or life)?

My couples inspire me! Getting a sense of what they want their day to look and feel like gets me so giddy to help bring that vision to life.

What are your all time favorite weddings or designs? What did you love about them?

It’s hard to choose! The most memorable weddings to me are those that put a unique spin on the design to make it match the couple’s personality. I had one last year at The Manor House that used books and a bookshelf with guests’ names as the seating chart. Then, each seat had a leather napkin ring with the guests’ name on it. Everything was so cozy and reflected the couple who were self-proclaimed homebodies.

I personally love to mix and match colors and textures in design. I love when we can have a little fun with things and when couples aren’t afraid to get a little funky.

What are some qualities of couples you really love working with (what are your client “green flags”)?

Love this question! I really enjoy working with couples who I can tell are excited to get married. I want my couples to find joy in the wedding planning process, and I hope to bring that out for each of them. The best couples are always the ones that trust me and the process. 

If you could plan/design a wedding anywhere in the world, what’s the dream?

I love being a wedding planner based in a location that is a destination for many couples, however, if I could choose to plan and design a wedding anywhere in the world, it would be Italy. Drop me in any region of that country and I would be over the moon. There’s so much beauty everywhere you turn and you just know that everyone would have a blast at that wedding!
