I recently graduated from South Dakota State University with a Bachelor of Science in apparel merchandising and a minor in entrepreneurial studies. My background working in retail has allowed me to develop skills as a visual merchandiser. I focus my time on the aesthetics of a store and on promoting quality customer service.

Renee and Lyric were amazing and I couldn't have asked for better wedding planners. They were able to meet the needs of my wedding reception beyond what I thought was needed and it surpassed my expectations from top quality signage to last minute décor and detailed day of timeline. I would highly recommend for any bride wanting to keep your sanity - Renee and Lyric kept me far away from becoming a bridezilla on my special day!

Her and her team are so talented and I will forever be thankful for them!! I would recommend Hitch a thousand times to anything even thinking about having a planner!! You will not regret it!!

Renee and the HitchStudio team are absolutely WONDERFUL to work with!!! I would book them for any event!! Our wedding day went better than I could have imagined!!! HitchStudio helped in every way and more! Renee is SOOOO organized, timely, coordinated zoom meetings and had a couple in person meetings. Renee asked great questions and listened to every small detail (that i wanted, didnt want) and if I didn't know the answer, she helped me discover what I wanted. Renee helped create/develop the wedding timeline, invites, programs and every small detail in between!! Renee was willing to do any crazy

I used Hitch for my wedding reception in Brooking, SD. These girls do an amazing job! They came in and made my reception space gorgeous, then they came back that night and tore it all down. Hitch was so easy to work with, they work with your budget, and it was sooo worth it to not have to clean up after my big day. They do just about any type of event, not just weddings. I highly recommend using hitch the next time you have a party to host!

If your a bride looking for a planner in Sioux Falls area and beyond. Give Renee a call. She will be the best decision you make on your wedding day!

Elahe and I had no idea on how a wedding is held in the US. I did a quick search on Google and found the Hitch Studio. We went there and met Renee. From the first meeting, we found her super nice, caring, and professional. She is extremely organized and pays a great attention to the details. She planned our wedding in a relatively short time and beautifully designed our wedding. She was a great help at the wedding day. The Hitch Studio went above and beyond to make us happy and to have a smooth day. Many of our guests told us that they were supper happy with the wedding. I want to finish this review

Used them for our wedding invitations. I wanted to give business to a small business in our region. The design process was easy as my fiancé had pretty much done 90% of the design herself, and Hitch was able to replicate that for us. Had issues with envelopes, seemed very cheaply made and see through. They did after some negotiations agree to include liners to help this for free, even though back side remained see through. We chose to pay for the envelopes to be printed by them and there were several issues with spacing and even some zip codes that were missed. Luckily we caught that before
