"I recently worked with Celeste and The Mingle Co. to bring an event with 100+ attendees to life and she was incredible. She asked all the right questions, sensed where I needed input, had excellent vendor connections and ideas, and had a clear understanding of the timeline and constraints. The evening was executed flawlessly. She has an ease and confidence about her that makes it so fun to collaborate and which brings a lot of relief on what could have been a stressful day."

Thanks to her thoughtful planning and attention to detail, our event was not only smooth but also incredibly successful. I would absolutely recommend The Mingle Co. to anyone looking for a partner who can bring events to life seamlessly and with excellence."

"Highly recommended, no complaints. TMC was great to work with, efficiently planning a huge party, organizing vendors, and helping with order supplies. Everything was organized, and communicated, which is huge to me."

"Working with Nikki at The Mingle Co made planning my daughter’s birthday party so easy. I chose their planning-only service, which was a great option for us—it’s less expensive than full event execution but still gave me everything I needed to feel confident handling the setup myself. Nikki provided a detailed layout, coordinated everything with trusted vendors, and even purchased and shipped many of the key supplies directly to me. She also gave me a simple list of basics to bring with me so nothing was overlooked. After just one phone call, she understood my vision and brought it to life, checking in as needed to keep everything on budget. The process was seamless, and the party was a success. I highly recommend The Mingle Co for anyone looking for stress-free, thoughtful event planning support!"

"We had a unique experience with TMC - They are located in northwest Arkansas, I'm in Little Rock and I needed them to help me plan a customer appreciation event in Vicksburg, MS. Nikki and Celeste jumped right in and found the best local vendors, ordered the best decorations and sent me mockups of what the layout should be with how to arrange everything we received. it was SO EASY to follow their instructions. Everyone was commenting on how great the food was, how pretty the balloons looked and we were relieved to have one less thing to worry about on that busy day. The scheduled zoom consultations where we could talk through what our vision was (seriously - our vision was a bit hazy and we just knew we needed something to tie our Lynx mascot in with a 60th anniversary) really helped direct both our team and TMC into making our thoughts into something real. We will definitely be using them again for future corporate events!"
