Vanessa's candybuffet was the hit of the wedding reception, my husband said the candybuffet line was longer than the liquor line...not only did she help put my NFL house divided theme into play, she had little football signs on the candy dishes, the fairy lights brightened the table, she provided a layout to let you see what the table will look like beforehand (professional) and everyone loved it. She comes highly recommended and I will use her again for my family reunion event in the near future.
Details: Wedding • No specific theme • 101 - 150 guests

Vanessa was absolutely fantastic to work with. She picked up on our style and preferences from the very beginning and ensured everything went off without a hitch. She had great ideas for items we were deciding between (as well as vendor recommendations!), and thought of all the things we did not. Can't recommend her highly enough!

Vanessa was an absolute godsend and we could not have gotten through the day without here. Though my husband and I were determined to DIY everything for outlet wedding, we later realized we needed someone to tie everything together and keep things moving on the day of. She coordinated with all of our vendors ahead of time, and participated in the wedding rehearsal. On the day of the wedding, a makeup emergency put us about 30 minutes behind schedule. Despite our panic, Vanessa kept everything calmed and controlled and got us all caught up. We absolutely could not have done this without her and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing a wedding coordinator!

There is no way I could have pulled of IN FOUR MONTHS a two-day, multicultural, out of state, wedding without Vanessa! She was organized, kept everything on schedule so there were no hiccups, was able to refer vendors, and was super responsive! Bringing Vanessa on-board was one of the best decisions I made about the wedding.
Details: Wedding rehearsal • Wedding ceremony • Wedding reception • Full service planning (start to finish help) • Wedding design (color palette, "look and feel") • Venue selection • Vendor selection • Day-of wedding coordination • Vendor coordination (contracts, payments, etc.) • Invitations and RSVP management • Decor rentals • 101 - 150 guests • No specific theme • $1,800 - $2,000 • Phone or internet (no in-person meeting) • I travel to the wedding planner

My husband and I clicked with Vanessa immediately. She is easy to work with, full of good advice for those of us who didn't have the patience to read all of the planning checklists and blogs online, and most importantly, she helped make our wedding day run smoothly and exactly as we envisioned, without the two of us having to worry about the details or directing or sheperding family members or others. Vanessa was well worth the investment we made in her services!
