Tips and Advice
Mr. & Mrs Ryan Hurst- October 18, 2008 How did wedding planner make your day special?
Tasha and Lauren were great at developing the overall design of our event. I was totally lost when it came to the look I wanted our wedding day to have. From helping design a custom logo, menus, programs, centerpieces, and much more... it was like they were inside my head and knew exactly what I wanted! Everyone to this day is still raving that is was one of the most amazing wedding they have ever been too!
Useful suggestions, tips, wisdom your planner offered?
Again the overall look and design... I never would have thought we could afford our own logo or a fancy candy buffet and they were able develop that for us and stay in our budget
How the planner reduced your inner-Bridezilla?
Since our wedding was a "destination wedding" for both families Tasha and Lauren made sure all our guest were taken care of; setting up the hospitality room at the hotel so people had a place to hang out between the wedding and receptions, making sure the shuttles got everyone where they needed to be, and keeping everyone on time! We had many issues the our hotel (not having rooms blocked, losing reservations) and reception venue (overcharging and not much selection in linens) and Tasha and Lauren took care of it all and made sure our day went off without a hitch without costing an absolute fortune!!!
Value of a wedding planner?
I can not say enough about the two of them. They know every detail there is to take care of. They worked their butts off for us. We used them as a day of planner and from the moment we hired them we did not regret it. While most brides are freaking out the week before their wedding I was totally at ease and enjoyed every moment since I knew I had two extremely talent professionals taking care of everything. If you are looking for a planner you found the right ones. Our family will continue to use them in the future for weddings and baby showers! They rock!

Tasha helped so much in the design area. I had an idea of what I wanted for my wedding, and she made it happen, all while staying in budget. She had so many ideas for saving money without sacrificing style.

Where do I even begin? From the decor, to details in every single item, to being there every sec i needed anything, it was amazing.
Useful suggestions, tips, wisdom your planner offered?
They offered all their suggestions,& tips... It was amazing how much advice and knowledge they had to offer on every subject. The biggest suggestion that was absoultely amazing was the birch branch tree, where the guests hung their cards on, instead of a boring everyday, wedding card box :-) it was awesome & a big hit at the wedding!
