Hire her, she's amazing!

I knew going into my wedding that I wanted a Day of Coordinator for the event. I work in Philanthropy so I've helped at a lot of events so I know first hand how important having a coordinator is. I did a lot of research on Day of Coordinators in the area and the moment I talked to Sydney I knew she was who I wanted to hire. She is outstanding! As a covid bride I worried about a lot, but Sydney was always there to offer advice and reassure me. We had planned for an outdoor ceremony with our reception under a tent and well when the weekend rolled the forecast called for rain the whole time. Sydney helped me come up with a back up plan in case of rain. Day of, it rained most of the day with a slight break around when the ceremony was to be so my friends were encouraging me to move the ceremony outside. I asked Sydney what she thought and she had the best response. She told me as a vendor she would advise me not to do it, but as my coordinator she would do whatever I wanted. It was perfect response. I opted to keep everything under the tent, which thank goodness I did because right as we said our vows it started to down pour. If you want a coordinator that will help, guide and encourage you hire Sydney. She executed our vision perfectly and I didn't have to worry about a thing because I knew she was handling it all. Even our venue said she was the best Day of Coordinator they'd worked with. I can't sing her praises enough.

Flawless Execution & Peace of Mind – Worth Every Penny!

We cannot recommend Sydney and her team highly enough! From the very beginning, Sydney guided us through every step of the wedding planning process with clarity, professionalism, and warmth. She kept us on track with key milestones, helped us navigate decisions big and small, and offered expert advice that made all the difference.

In the final weeks—especially as weather concerns arose—Sydney was a calming, confident presence. She had contingency plans ready and reassured us every step of the way. Her leadership at the rehearsal ensured everyone felt prepared and confident for the big day.

On the wedding day itself, Sydney and her assistant were nothing short of extraordinary. They orchestrated every detail with precision and grace, keeping the timeline on track while staying completely behind the scenes. Thanks to them, the day was seamless and stress-free, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration with our family and friends.

Hiring Sydney was one of the best investments we made. Her expertise, poise, and attention to detail gave us peace of mind and made our daughter’s wedding truly unforgettable.

We are so grateful for Sydney and her team—and we wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding!

Best decision we made for our wedding!

Sydney is the BEST — absolutely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
We started working together about a year and a half before our wedding day, and she did an incredible job keeping everything on track. She let us know when we could take a break from wedding planning (which is a gift in itself!) and was consistently responsive and organized throughout the entire process.
We were planning an out-of-state wedding, so having someone like Sydney was especially important. She helped us with a two-day celebration, and on both days it felt like she intuitively knew what we and our guests needed. Everything ran smoothly thanks to her, and best of all, we barely had to think about the logistics.
Sydney is thoughtful, honest, and talented. Even when we weren’t sure what we wanted, she helped us find clarity and made us feel reassured. She recommended great vendors, stayed mindful of our budget, and offered insights that clearly came from her experience.
We even asked her to take on a somewhat unusual role—serving as the host for our “camp-style games” day. Organizing 80 people into teams, explaining rules, and essentially acting as a camp counselor isn’t easy—but she absolutely nailed it.
If you’re looking for someone professional, kind, creative, and truly invested in your day going beautifully, we couldn’t recommend Sydney more highly.

Beyond What Words Can Describe

There are not enough words to put down to express how amazing Sydney is. She does this because she LOVES it and it shows. She is warm, understanding, but doesn't sugar coat it and I LOVE her for that. Our wedding was a destination for us and Sydney was my feet on the ground in Coeur d' Alene. She is incredibly responsive, and always there when you need her. Her eye for design and interpretation of what I envisioned was perfect. I was able to talk through ideas, as vague as they may have been, and she knew where I was headed and put an image to my words. I could not have planned my wedding without her, and I now looking back, I could not envision doing it with anyone else. She will not lead you wrong, and is going to make it the perfect day that YOU want. I am so thankful for Sydney, and I promise you will too.

Great Wedding Planner

Sydney really was amazing! We had a lot of ideas about certain things, but were not as sure about other things in regards to how we wanted our wedding to look and feel and she was so helpful in guiding us. She made amazing recommendations for all of our vendors and seriously went above and beyond in answering my 1 million emails throughout the planning process! My only regret is not hiring her for her full service because I know that little bit more help would have taken a lot off my load! On our wedding day we had a lot to navigate and she was so quick to help with whatever we needed and everything turned out beautifully!

Amazing Planner!!!

We hired Sydney with A Piece of Harmony Events for her full wedding planning services, and it was one of the best decisions I made during the entire process! Sydney is the best at what she does. She made our wedding memorable and flawlessly organized and executed.
From the very first consultation, Sydney was professional and attentive. She took the time to understand our style and personalities then helped guide us in creating the perfect wedding for us. I didn’t really have a wedding vision, but I knew I wanted to create a great guest experience. Having Sydney’s vast experience and knowledge throughout the process was priceless. She is extremely familiar with every detail that goes into a wedding, which helped us create the perfect guest experience. We received so many compliments from our guests during and after the wedding.
Our venue search felt like it took forever, but Sydney was ready with several venue recommendations and attended each site visit with us until we found the right one. All the vendors she recommended felt personalized to us and her communication and response times are next level! Anytime I reached out with a question she was ready with an answer. Does she sleep?! :)
On our wedding day, there was no rain in the forecast, but it torrentially rained on and off throughout the entire morning, right up until we walked down the aisle. I should have been stressed and worried in that moment since our ceremony was outside, but I wasn’t because I knew Sydney would adapt to the crazy weather and make it a wonderful day…which she did! I was impressed with the flawless execution of all the moving parts. Every detail was accounted for and seamlessly orchestrated. She greeted and coordinated all the vendors on the day of the wedding. As the bride, it was a huge relief not to have to stress about the logistics of greeting and coordinating the vendors. It allowed me and my family to fully enjoy the day!
Sydney was an invaluable asset throughout wedding planning and on our big day. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and excellent communication skills led to a seamless, beautiful, and memorable wedding! I highly recommend Sydney for weddings and all other event planning services!

Incredible planner

We are thrilled to share our heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional work done by Sydney at A Piece of Harmony as our wedding planner. Sydney went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day not only met but exceeded all expectations. Her remarkable expertise and unwavering dedication were crucial, especially in navigating the challenges of bringing our unique wedding vision to life, all the way from Los Angeles to our destination wedding in Spokane at the beautiful Historic Davenport Hotel.

From our very first meeting to the unforgettable moments of our reception, Sydney brought an unparalleled level of professionalism, creativity, and meticulous attention to detail. Picture this—we jetted off to Spokane on a whirlwind three-day adventure, a mission to find the dream venue and perfect planner for our big day. Our schedule was a maze, filled with meetings with various wedding planners and other key vendors. Unfortunately, we hit roadblocks, encountering a glaring disconnect on our vision and a noticeable lack of attention to detail from the others we interviewed.

Our 'A-ha' moment with Sydney unfolded during a venue walk-through. Having mentioned a meeting with the venue, we were pleasantly surprised when Sydney joined us and engaged in discussions about details and our vision. It felt as if we had been collaborating for months. This unexpected and proactive approach was exactly what we needed. It solidified our confidence in Sydney's ability to take charge and get things done—a crucial quality given our busy work schedules and the demand for a full-service wedding planner who could handle every detail and bring our vision to life.

Throughout our entire wedding planning experience, Sydney wasn't merely checking off boxes; she was crafting an experience tailored to us. We engaged in multiple Zoom meetings, emails, text messages, and phone calls, and Sydney was consistently willing to assist us through all decisions, ensuring that all vendors aligned with our vision. Her ability to forge a personal connection with us and effortlessly translate our ideas into tangible, thrilling possibilities made the decision to choose her as our wedding planner not only easy but genuinely exhilarating.

During our wedding, we incorporated specific elements that demanded meticulous coordination. Notably, we executed a full room flip from the ceremony to the reception within one hour, involving numerous intricate changes. One such change included relocating our stunning full candle backdrop from the ceremony backdrop to our sweetheart table backdrop. Although I later discovered that this particular task had stressed Sydney out, her execution was flawless, and I wouldn't have known given the seamless outcome. Additionally, the most incredible champagne tower, a delicate balancing act, became one of my favorite moments of our wedding.

Sydney played a pivotal role in finding vendors capable of creating and executing all our requests—a crucial aspect of our wedding planning journey. This encompassed the development of a custom staircase for our stage, crafting all signs and seating charts, designing beautiful panels that took center stage for our DJ, creating intricate monogram designs for our signature drinks, and providing exquisite flowers for our event, delicious cake, bridal party, and my stunning bridal bouquet. The list goes on, encompassing more elements than I could list here, demonstrating Sydney's unwavering commitment to making our wedding day extraordinary.

In closing, I want to express our deepest gratitude to Sydney for turning our wedding dreams into an enchanting reality. Her unwavering commitment, meticulous attention to detail, and creative brilliance made every moment special. From seamlessly flipping the room to the flawless execution of intricate details, Sydney's dedication to perfection was like having a fairy godmother ensuring every aspect was just right. Sydney, you made our wedding day not only memorable but also deeply personal and magical.

To anyone in search of a wedding planner who invests heart and soul into making dreams come true, we wholeheartedly recommend Sydney. Thank you, Sydney, for making our special day an absolute masterpiece. Your talent and passion truly made all the difference, and we are forever grateful.

The best ever!!

After being in a handful of weddings I knew that I wanted to hire a day of coordinator for our wedding. There are many things the day of you just need someone’s help with. Well, Sydney ended up going WAY beyond the expectations that I had. She was literally a lifesaver. She met with us a few times before the wedding and was extremely responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process. I had somewhat of a vision for our wedding day but was missing a lot of the pieces. Sydney made those come to life. She sat with us and we talked through every part of the entire day. When the day arrived she got to the venue early in the morning and set up the entire reception venue. I was somewhat worried about the layout of the room, but I knew that I didn’t have to worry since Sydney was taking care of it. She partnered with all of the vendors on arrival and everything went off without a hitch. She stayed throughout the entire reception and was helpful in every area of the day. Not only did she put our nerves at ease but she made the reception venue look like a dream! I could not have imagined a more perfect day and it was thanks to her. If you are getting married, you need to hire A Piece of Harmony Events to help plan your wedding. I promise you will not regret it because Sydney is AMAZING!!

Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Welcome Party

We hired Sydney for a Groom's Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Welcome Party that was held at 2 different venues the evening before the wedding. Sydney was friendly, professional, encouraging, and her communication skills were excellent. Whenever I emailed or called Sydney with a question, she quickly responded. I really appreciated her vendor suggestions for flowers. She knew how to move our rehearsal dinner folks along in a friendly manner, so we could stay on schedule, and when we arrived at the welcome party, Sydney was at the welcome table greeting guests with a big friendly smile, and encouraging them to sign the guest book. Sydney was fantastic to work with, and I would highly recommend her for any event where you want a friendly, encouraging, organized helping hand.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
