Hired on Thumbtack

Sarah and her sister Alli are awesome. I was bery nervous planning my wedding because I’m a very organized person and I knew I couldn’t be the morning before the wedding organizing everything. I hired Sarah for the day of the wedding coordination and from the moment I met her I felt in love. She made everything come together, made a timeline and also made sure all my vendors had all the information. Honestly i was very happy I found them! My fiance was very happy as well they did such a great job! In addition to all this they are great people, you meet them and you want to be their friends.

If you are looking for a coordinator that will go above and beyond to make sure your wedding goes absolutely perfectly, please stop looking now and book SD Events right away! I could not have been happier with Sara and Alli’s coordination of my New Year’s Eve wedding. We had a lot of moving parts and they handled every single moment effortlessly. They are responsive, flexible, trustworthy, professional, and the best part is, you can tell that both of them truly care about you and your wedding day. I can’t tell you how many times I texted Sara about little things (sorry Sara!) and she responded immediately, gave me great ideas, and put me at ease. They were also so enthusiastic and supportive, which really meant a lot to me as an extremely stressed out bride. I could go on all day with the positive things I have to say about these two women. Placing the intricate details of my wedding day in Sara and Alli’s hands was absolutely the best decision I made. Please do not hesitate to hire them, you will be so glad you did!

Sarah and Alli of SD Events were absolutely LEGENDARY to have as wedding planners for our special day! My partner and I are both “planners” ourselves having experience in organizing large-scale events and thus, never thought we needed a wedding planner. And in fact, we accomplished a lot of the big tasks way in advance, and were feeling pretty confident as we moved toward our wedding….until, that is, about a month before the big day – when we realized that there were so many tasks to accomplish and coordinate in those final few weeks/days leading up to the event, we had a panic moment! Throw in thinking about actually how we’d “run the show” on the day of our wedding when we needed to focus on getting married and enjoying the company of loved ones (including during the after party when essential breakdown needed to happen), we realized we were in desperate need of a coordinator! After some research online, we luckily happened upon Sarah and SD events. From the very first inquiry, Sarah was extremely responsive and easy to communicate with about the various needs in front of us. Meeting with her in person to discuss our needs in greater detail, we immediately knew this was a perfect fit! Not only did Sarah quickly pick up on our vision, she was proactive in a constructive and genuine way by offering advice and connections with her network in the industry/area that were invaluable! Seriously, she thought of EVERYTHING! In those final and critical days/hours leading up to our wedding, Sarah was willing to meet our every need and spearheaded the final logistics in a way that put us at ease and confident that she would go above and beyond to coordinate our wedding, which was nothing short of perfect! The same can be reiterated for her coordination on our big day, pulling off the larger task of seamlessly moving our big day from ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner, etc., but also honing in on smaller, yet thoughtful details – such as making sure to bring some hor’dourves to our bridal suite so that my new spouse and I could have some food and enjoy the choices we made (which we probably would have never thought to eat otherwise!). Sarah also took the lead on figuring out how to hang a neon sign on a historic brick wall built in the 1800s when the team realized last minute that there were no nails to hang it from! We didn’t even know there was a problem until the next day because Sarah jumped into action without ever bothering us!!! The sign was hung by wedding time and looked amazing over the dancefloor. By the way, Alli is a pro at re-gluing false lashes on brides when they come off moments before the ceremony ☺ Finally, after it was all said and done, Sarah was a valuable asset in assuring that all the loose ends were tied up and resolving any post-wedding tasks that needed to be accomplished. As demonstrated before the wedding, her follow-up and communication in wrapping everything up was essential – because we were exhausted by the end! Beyond how amazing they are at planning and implementing a wedding, Sarah and her sister, Alli, are genuinely nice and cool people! They always made us feel at ease and like we were talking with friends. Although they are extremely well organized and on top of everything, they also take a “go with the flow” attitude/approach, which is an awesome trait to having in a wedding coordinator that helps you feel at ease! Many wedding guests commented on how calm my partner and I were throughout the whole day (side note – to be clear, we are typically very anxious people), which we 100% attribute to Sarah and Alli’s preparedness and personality. Thank you so much to Sarah for being such a great wedding coordinator! We would hire her 10/10 times again if we ever need coordinating for other events and truly know that without her and Alli’s assistance, our wedding would not have been the LEGENDARY event that it was! Thank you!

Without Sara & Alli, my wedding would not have been as amazing as it was! Part planner, part helping hands, part therapist, part confidant - they did it all! I will tell my friends to hire them. I will hopefully never need their wedding services again, *fingers crossed* but would hire them a million times over if I ever had another event, vow renewals, a milestone birthday. Sara was always there to answer a quick text, help me with a gut check decision. They were so organized and helped out where my vendors would have charged me hundreds of dollars to stick around to set tables, etc. It was seriously like having a second best friend next to you for your big day.

Our standard coordinating pricing generally starts at $1,500 but we offer a variety of packages and are willing to customize to work with every budget
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Upon inquiry, we typical meet with a potential client for coffee and go over our different packages and services offered. Meeting face to face in a casual setting helps both the client and I let our guard down get to know each other and our styles a little easier.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been planning corporate events for almost 10 years for Security Vault Works, Inc. I have also completed the Event Management program at George Washington University.
