You do need a day of coordinator with Accent on Events!

As a lover of planning I honestly never thought that I would find value in hiring a day-of coordinator. But after my sister got married a year before my wedding I realized that I didn't want my parents or my bridesmaids or even me to be more stressed than necessary on the big day! That is where Laura and Accent on Events comes in. Laura was a HUGE help in planning timelines, verifying with vendors the week before and assuring things happened in a timely fashion the day of. She was also a lifesaver for some last minute changes in where our flowers needed to be delivered and helping us to dry off a patio spot for our first look (above and beyond here). I also underestimated how helpful it was to have someone who was very familiar with the Rockton / Beloit area since we were planning from out of town. Laura was a great resource for trouble shooting and suggestions for what she has seen in the past for other weddings or with our vendors. Best money spent in the grand scheme of wedding vendors, highly recommend Laura and Accent on Events! You wedding day will go by so quickly, you want to spend as much time of it enjoying the day and the least amount of time stressing :)

A weight off my shoulders

I considered hiring a coordinator because I was so worried about the little details, setting up decorations, and sticking to a schedule. After meeting Laura, I was sold. She made me feel so at ease and clearly knows her stuff. I'm glad I followed my gut instinct because my wedding day was SO stress free and laid-back, but still organized so everyone was able to have a great time. I cannot express my gratitude enough!

I simply don't know where to start with Laura (and her lovely assistant, Morgan) at Accent on Events. We were married on June 9th and they made it a complete dream. They are worth every penny (plus some!), and I wouldn't ever dream of doing a wedding without them. Laura picked up on my style perfectly--she brought a vision in my head to life, even when I really struggled to explain it. She had wonderful vendor recommendations. Plus, she organized all of the details amongst the vendors and the schedule with the vendors without me having to think about a thing. Although, there were many hands in the pot the weekend of our wedding, Laura knew when and where to speak up and direct the crowd so me and my family didn't have to think twice about those small details. She reminded me and warned me about things I would have never thought about (e.g. the slope of our venue land and how that would've affected the table layout, vow books, how to weigh things down should there be wind, etc). She always had a plan B in her mind, too--always. She was so easy to get a hold of at any time and she responded nearly instantaneously. I can not say enough good things about Accent on Events. After working with her the past few months, I feel we not only gained a wedding coordinator, but also a friend. I promise you, you will not be sorry by choosing to make her and her team part of your special day.

Laura was amazing! From the beginning, communication was great. She responded almost immediately to every email and text message I sent her. She made sure all the vendors knew where and when to be, especially important since many of them were setting up in the same place my ceremony was held. She set up all my reception tables and decorations and took it all down so my family and I could enjoy the party instead of worrying about cleaning up. At the end of the night I turned around and nearly everything was done for me! She even fixed a slight wardrobe malfunction. I will definitely be recommending her to my friends and family. Best decision I made planning my wedding.

Laura and her team were invaluable in making our fairytale wedding come to life. Throughout the planning process she made us feel at ease with her suggestions and flexibility with multiple vendor meetings. Laura's attention to detail made every aspect of our wedding so beautiful and personal. Our entire family was able to relax and really enjoy the weekend knowing we could trust Laura to make our dream come true. Laura saved us and our loved ones so much work and stress and I can't even imagine our wedding without her. I would hire Accent on Events again in a heartbeat.

It was great handing over the wedding day to Laura. My family and friends got to be guests at our wedding and did not have to lift a finger. Thanks Laura!

As I started the wedding process of planning I was quickly overwhelmed with everything that had to be done, and didn't even know where to start. That is when I decided it was essential to have a wedding planner and I found Laura. I cannot even begin to explain the assertiveness, professionalism, and attention to detail that Laura exhibits. My wedding was everything that I could have ever imagined it to be, and then some. From the beginning of the process to the very end Laura was there every step of the way. I would highly recommend Laura to anyone if you can dream it, she can make it come true. Thank you again for everything I can't stop talking about the entire day!

I had the pleasure of working with Laura for a wedding this last season. She brings her can-do attitude along with her impeccable attention to detail and excellent organization to all the components that make up your wedding day. Typically weddings will have at least 1 or 2 small things go wrong, but during this wedding that had Laura's finger prints all over it - I don't recall one thing being out of place, late or any moments of panic. It was a lovely orchestrated wedding. I look forward to working with Laura and her team at Accent on Events again and recommend her to all of my brides!
