I would recommend Soireebliss to anyone planning a wedding. They were absolutely amazing! It was so nice to not worry about anything during the wedding because Sam and her assistant, Tracy, made sure everything was going as scheduled. I could not have done it without them!!

Samantha Darr with soireebliss! was an absolute blessing to our wedding. Our wedding could not have happened without her! As our day-of-coordinator, Sam made sure that all vendors were lined up to arrive at designated times, helped with decor items, set a day-of schedule for everyone to follow (ex: cake cutting and bouquet toss times), and did so many more things that I cannot even fathom. She did many things that I will probably never even know about. I say this not to sound ignorant to her hard work, but to point out that she took care of things before they even came to my or anyone else's attention. She is so on-point and on top of things. Sam was by far the best thing we spent money on for our wedding!!

Samantha is wonderful and super creative! She is amazing!!!!! Our wedding probably would have been super stressful if it wasn't for her and her crew. The only disappointment with the entire wedding is that there was a little miscommunication between her and the venue. We were told by the venue we could hold the reception an extra hour for no charge. On the day of the reception, Samantha informed us we had to end the reception an hour earlier or be charged. This made the reception feel SO SHORT and EXTREMELY rushed. It was a blast, it was beautiful, and the entire wedding was a dream, but I still feel a little upset that it was so short.... I want to plan another big party...AND hire Samantha to coordinate it again! I really feel the miscommunication was NOT her fault.
Anyway, she is WONDERFUL to work with. I would recommend her to any of my friends or people I know who are getting married. She has a lot of wonderful ideas. I hired her for day-of coordination and I feel I got the same attention as a bride who would have hired her for entire event coordination. She is genuine, sincere, and very easy to communicate with and talk to. I felt comfortable talking to her for just about anything. The event was an absolute success! Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had and how wonderful the event was. I really think I could not have done it without her. She is so darn organized - she has things planned down to the minute! Please do not look anywhere else for an event planner - SHE is IT!

Samantha Darr is extremely professional, creative, attentive, and organized. These are qualities that are extremely important when planning a wedding. Because of Samantha, we were able to sit back, relax, and really enjoy our wedding weekend in Mexico. This was Samantha's first destination wedding in Cancun and although there were some bumps in the road, the end result was AMAZING! We could not have been more pleased. I highly reccomend her if you want the wedding of your dreams to become a reality.

Samantha has been nothing but the best while planning my wedding. She was my confidant, my planner, my psychiatrist, my friend. She was very patient with any changes I made, she took perfect notes of our meetings and she constantly checked up on me. I know sometimes it seems like the money we spend on wedding is unnecessary but please please make this investment. The day of my wedding I had no worries I sat back and enjoyed every minute of it. Sam has a great eye for design, when I first saw my ballroom I cried because it was simply more than I thought possible on my budget. All in all this woman was my rockstar.

About ten months prior to our wedding my fiancé (now husband) and I started looking for a wedding planner. After endless meetings with various planners we were just not content. Finally, we meet with Samantha, about two minutes into our first meeting I knew we had found the right person. She was professional, knowledgeable in event planning, and above all enthusiastic. We had a modest budget to begin with and that didn’t hold her back. She continued to work with us, and our budget. Giving us cost-effective alternatives for my expensive and modern eye. I absolutely loved working with her, she was never too busy to talk or to meet. She went above and beyond our contract by offering a shoulder to lean on and her very own place when needed. My wedding would not have been as beautiful as it was without Samantha’s advice, expertise in design, and coordination. Everything down to the minuscule detail was in place and perfect. Not only did I get a great wedding but I feel that I gained a true friend and confidante.

My husband and I contracted Samantha for our recent May wedding here in Houston, Texas at River Oaks Baptist Church and the Petroleum Club.
We had interviewed a number of potential wedding planners and once we met Samantha, we knew our search was over! From the start, we knew that she was excited about our vision and determined to make it happen. We worked with her for over 9 months meticulously planning every little detail...and i can tell you that preparation makes all the difference.
Samantha was always incredibly enthusiastic and genuinely excited about planning, offering some amazing (yet budget conscious) ideas to help take the wedding to the next level. She was incredibly accessible, returning emails within minutes or hours! I always felt like i could reach her via phone too. As the big day approached, my husband and i were confident that Samantha had it all together. She was on top of all of our vendors, ensuring that everyone was on the same page. The timelines were perfect and everything went as planned; literally to the minute. We were so amazed.
Her staff is top notch as well. I honestly don't think our wedding could have been any more amazing than it was. Everything went smoothly and we didn't have a single care in the world.
I think what sets Samantha apart is her incredible organization skills, her ability to multitask, her creative eye, and her true passion for event planning. And her prices are quite reasonable too. Without hesitation we would hire her and her team again! She truly went above and beyond our expectations.

Samantha was energetic, full of great ideas, and was very professional. She always gave me options to choose from and put me in contact with other professional and knowledgeable vendors. I would recommend her highly to anyone needing a wedding planner. Our wedding turned out great and many family/guests commented on how organized it was. One my wedding day I was very much at ease knowing that things were being taken care of by Sam.

Samantha is beyond amazing, and the best investment we made for our wedding. My only regret is that we did not utilize her services from the moment we got engaged. She treated our wedding with as much care and excitement as she would have treated her own. She treated our families and each of our guests with kindness and respect and we have received nothing but compliments about her. I will hire Samantha for any event I plan in the future and will recommend her to every bride I know! She and her services are priceless!

Sam was amazing! I had no worries the day of my wedding (except for the city shutting down 45... go figure). Everything went so smooth. I hired Sam as my DOC because my mother likes to stress over things and I didn't want her to have to do anything. It was great! My mom was calm (except for regaurds for my cake which she did) and complimented everything after the fact. I really didn't stress over anything and had a wonderful amazing wedding!

Samantha went above and beyond her responsibilities. She was available night or day and responded to the enormous amount of questions I had immediately. I would recommend her to anyone needing a wedding coordinator.

Sam is an extremely professional individual with such a creative mind. Her attention to detail is impeccable. She was by far the best investment of my wedding. I never in a million years imagined that I could have such a perfect wedding and enjoy myself. My guest's are still talking about it. I owe that and more to Sam. She also designed and created my invitations which were also amazing. I highly recommend her. I don't know anyone who goes above and beyond the way she does.

soireebliss! was an absolute life saver in helping me plan our wedding as I was studying for boards and working! With Samantha and her team, our wedding day would not have been the fairytale it was. Samantha came up with so many amazing ideas and touches to make the event unique to my husband and I. The soireebliss team went way above anything I could have asked even by taking special care of my elderly grandparents. It was money well spent!

Samantha Darr was an absolutely outstanding wedding coordinator. She was my day-off coordinator and went above and beyond to meet with me (many times!) prior to my wedding day to ensure that everything went flawlessly. She is professional, creative, personable, and incredibly organized. Her attention to detail and unique ideas really contributed to my wedding being the special event that it was. I will never forget telling her I was feeling a little dizzy and hypoglycemic (11 minutes prior to the ceremony!). In no time, her assistant was at my side with a Snicker's bar to save the day! I can't recommend Samantha and soiree bliss enough for anyone in need of event planning!
