Briana was a dream! She was always available to talk, meet, and resolve issues. Through her, we got the best vendors - some offered discounts because of their relationship with her, and others we NEVER would have found without her. We never would have pulled off such an extraordinary, wonderful-to-the-last-minute event without Briana. She kept everything organized: all contracts, payments due, every signed document, every deposit, tracked every nickel to keep us within budget (it's SO easy to derail or get lured into "upgrades"). Briana had invaluable insight into how to deal with vendors. She knew the right questions to ask, thought of every angle, and we benefitted from her experience. Our site had an event coordinator, and while this person was also helpful, Briana was interested in getting what WE wanted, what was in our best interest. She gave us important and practical advice and kept us on track. We told her that the most important thing was that no one stress out/have panic attacks over the wedding. We knew how last minute details can quickly become overwhelming if you don't plan properly - that's where Briana shined! If there was any issue during the wedding, we had no idea! She also served as a buffer between me, my parents, bridesmaids, etc. Emotions tend to run high at these things - Briana was there to give a neutral, objective assessment to guide us through hot-item decisions. Every time some issue came up that caused friction, we could just ask Briana - is this really important? What is proper? Is this feasible/practical/worth putting effort into? She had pointed, intelligent answers, so we didn't have to argue. I really can't say enough wonderful things about Briana! Get a wedding planner!! You will save money, time, stress and family feuding, and you'll end up with the best wedding you could possibly have, and it will be yours. Briana - a million times thank you!
