I cannot say enough good things about having a day-of coordinator, but if you're in the Portland area--you simply must book with the team at Soiree. Our day was perfect and SEAMLESS, and this was a direct result of the efforts of Whitney, Trish, and Lina. You're stressed and emotionally overwhelmed enough on your day. These ladies made sure everything JUST HAPPENED around us without any involvement or decision making needed.

From the site walk through to the rehearsal to the day of, they were there every step of the way with everything you need to have a smooth wedding day. Their time and knowledge is worth every penny. THANK YOU, SOIREE for making our day magical.

I loved working with Soiree. Whitney Whiting was there with us every step of the way. She helped us put together the wedding weekend of our dreams.

Molli and her team were truly invaluable during the wedding planning process and at both the rehearsal and wedding. I choose to do their day-of package that includes support prior to the wedding with them taking the reins roughly two weeks in advance of your wedding. Soirée provided me with wonderful advice, vetted vendors, amazing checklists and incredible moral support. It was such a gift to know that I could turn to them when I had a question and to trust that they had every detail under control so that I could relax and enjoy my wedding day. The execution was flawless. If anything happened behind the scenes I still don't know about it. And that is what you are paying a planner to provide you with... the peace of mind that comes from knowing that you have capable professionals handling what needs to be handled. I cannot recommend Soirée, Molli and her team highly enough. They were a joy to work with and hiring them was truly money well spent.

Sincerely,
Emily Hammond

The people at Soirée are extraordinary in every sense of the word! They coordinated a recent wedding that I was a DJ for, and they handled everything so seamlessly. They were absolutely incredible and made the entire day perfect from start to finish! I highly recommend hiring Soirée, and was extremely impressed with their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine excitement for the couple's special day!

Soiree is one of the premier event coordinators in the Northwest. I have only worked with them at weddings. All of their staff work very hard to make sure every detail of the wedding is implemented as the couple have envisioned. I recommend them to you.
