Wonderful wedding coordination

We used Elegance Simplified for our November 2018 wedding and had a wonderful experience. Renee provided us with "day of" coordination that extended into the month prior to the event, helping us with the final details. We did a lot of DIY for our decor and Renee collected it several days before the wedding and set it all up for us so we wouldn't have to worry about it on our wedding day. Everything looked great and the wedding and reception ran very smoothly. I don't even know if anything went wrong along the way because we never had to deal personally with any issues and were able to make a smooth departure after the event. Renee is great to work with and highly recommend her services!

Elegance Simplified is the absolute best thing I spent money on for my wedding

First of all, you NEED a wedding coordinator. Do not put yourself through the stress of not having one. They are essential. Luckily for me, the stars aligned and I found the most wonderful coordinator. Renee and her team were so great at putting my mind at ease and making me feel confident that my wedding was in good hands. I hired Renee to be the month of coordinator and she went above and beyond what I expected. She would check in with me, just to see how I was feeling and what was stressing me out that she could take care of. She had wonderful suggestions and really made my wedding gorgeous and flow perfectly. I got married on my family's farm and she came out several times to check it out and see how everything was going to go the day of the wedding. I wasn't stressed the day of the wedding because I knew Renee had everything covered. I can't recommend Elegance Simplified enough. They were hands down the BEST decision I made when booking things for the wedding. Do yourself a favor, and hire them.
