Dolly Wren's Story
About Us
We’re Emma and Hallie, the best friends and co-founders behind Dolly Wren Weddings & Events. What started as a random college roommate pairing turned into a lifelong friendship, and now, one of our favorite adventures yet: building a business together! We’ve always believed that life’s sweetest moments deserve to be celebrated beautifully, and we’re passionate about helping make those moments feel effortless, intentional, and unforgettable.
By day, Emma is a teacher and mom, balancing the beautiful chaos of the classroom and motherhood. Hallie keeps things running at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center where she manages museum operations. While our day-to-day careers may look a little different, we share a love for organization, creativity, and bringing people together. We believe the best celebrations come from a little planning, a lot of heart, and someone behind the scenes making sure all the little details fall into place.
At Dolly Wren, we bring together our strengths, our friendship, and our love for celebrating life’s big and small moments. From wedding day coordination to ceremony and reception setup, rehearsal dinners, and other special events, we’re here to take the details off your plate so you can be fully present for the moments that matter most.
We may have started as two random college roommates, but we’ve become so much more than that. Now, we get to turn our friendship into something meaningful by helping other people celebrate their own love stories. And honestly, we can’t think of anything sweeter.

Our Vision
At Dolly Wren Weddings & Events, we believe your wedding or special event should feel like you—personal, meaningful, and filled with the little details that make it unforgettable. Our vision is to create an experience where you feel less like a client and more like a friend. We want to be the people you can laugh with, dream with, and trust to bring your vision to life.
We know that planning a wedding or event comes with a thousand little details, and we believe you deserve to enjoy the excitement without carrying the weight of making everything happen. That’s where we come in. From the first conversation to the final finishing touch, we’re here to listen to your ideas, understand what matters most to you, and make sure every detail comes together just as you imagined.
Our goal is to combine the warmth of a friendship with the confidence of a team that gets things done. We want you to feel comfortable asking questions, sharing your ideas, and trusting us with the behind-the-scenes work. Whether we’re setting up your ceremony space, coordinating the flow of your wedding day, or bringing a special celebration together, we want you to be fully present for the moments you’ve worked so hard to create.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about a beautifully executed event. It’s about how you feel throughout the process and the memories you carry with you afterward. We want every client to walk away feeling cared for, celebrated, and confident that their vision was in good hands.
You bring the dream. We’ll bring the friendship, and the follow-through to make it happen.
