Complete Peace of Mind

You and your family won’t have to watch the clock — we handle every detail so you can be fully present and soak up every moment.

  • I did almost nothing in the month leading up to our wedding day because our coordinator was amazing and handled everything without stressing me out. The day of our wedding was a dream, and I had absolutely nothing to worry about. I cried tears of joy at the end of the day when I had to say good-bye to her. Hiring a wedding coordinator was hands-down the best decision we made when planning our wedding. I wish we would have hired her from Day 1 because I never would have gotten to the stage where I was drowning.

  • Everyone, including me, was SO impressed with how well everything went, and you took so much stress off my shoulders! Pro tip to other brides: Don’t wait till you are so stressed to hire/get someone to help you! There are a lot of things you don’t think of on your own.
