Wedding coordinator extraordinaire!

Leah from Another Wild Hare was an awesome day-of coordinator for our wedding in Shenandoah! In addition to her "day-of" services, she guided us through the the broad strokes of wedding planning a few months out, and helped us navigate the fine details as we got closer to the day. She was poised under pressure... including a torrential downpour at the exact time of our outdoor ceremony. She is a a great communicator and a joy to work with.

She also did our florals and decor as an add-on to our "day-of" contract, which was a huge support for us since we weren't sure how to tackle aspect of the event. We’d highly recommend her to friends and family!

Can't recommend highly enough - made the wedding perfect

We had a 150 person wedding in rural Virginia, which we were organsing from distance with help from family (we live overseas, with only a couple of trips back in the year leading up to the wedding).

We were initially thinking about not getting a coordinator to cut costs, but in the end it was one of our best pre-wedding decisions to hire Leah and the team at Another Wild Hare as day-of coordinators. Leah was professional, thorough, friendly and communicative. She really worked with our preferences, thought through her recommendations, and truly went above and beyond for us. We can't recommend them highly enough.

Some examples of how excellent they were and how they made our wedding look amazing and run smoothly:

- My wife had a strong vision of what she wanted in terms of florals and design for the venue. Leah did an excellent job not only bringing that to life, but adding to it in ways that we really loved. Leah was very good in explaining to us what would look and and, importantly, what wouldn't - and coming up with alternatives that were in our budget. She really knew what she was doing.

- I'm an Australian, and Leah went the extra mile in giving us a personal touch. In her flower arrangements (which her amazing team did all on site!) she sourced a range of fantastic Australian greenery. It was an fantastic surprise that we were not expecting!

- The team identified and handled a number of significant problems and mistakes before, during and after the wedding day (both our mistakes and others). Leah excellently handled under-performance by one of our other vendors, both on the day and helping us manage the follow up. We didn't notice there was a problem until we debriefed with Leah - they covered it seamlessly.

I really recommend Another Wild Hare as wedding coordinators. We couldn't be happier, and they really made our wedding better than it would have been. Thanks Leah and team!

If you are even slightly considering hiring Leah for your event, DO IT! We literally could not have had the wedding of our dreams if it hadn't been for her! She is incredibly organized, assertive, and on top of everything. She had great ideas and suggestions, listened to everything we wanted and made it happen, and seamlessly moved throughout the wedding day tying up loose ends, smoothing out little kinks, and making sure we were taken care of. Again, if you are even considering hiring someone for your event, JUST HIRE LEAH!

Leah was our day of coordinator and I can't sing her praises enough! I met with her two weeks before our wedding and she helped to better flush out and detail our timeline, offered numerous suggestions based on years of experience, resolved issues before they became a problem, and gave me such a great sense of confidence. She was patient and listened to what we wanted and helped to create and achieve that vision. On the day of, I only saw Leah as she organized us to walk down the aisle - she was behind the scenes making sure things ran smoothly, seating guests who didn't RSVP, and resolving with a crisis I didn't even know we had until after the wedding! (Everyone was ok!) She helped to create a wedding day where I could be present, live in the moment, and enjoy the first hours of being a Mrs. surrounded by my favorite people. I can't thank her enough for providing that sense of comfort in knowing that all would be well. I highly recommend her as a wedding planner and/or day of coordinator!

Leah was our Event Coordinator for our son's rehearsal dinner at Hotel Laurance in Luray, VA. I had to plan long distance from Colorado and Leah made things seamless and low stress! She did all the coordination with the caterer, Main Street Bakery, and made sure every little detail was addressed. She had some great suggestions for the floral decorations and created incredible wildflower arrangements that set the exact tone that we wanted. It was a delight to have someone taking care of all the details so that our family could relax and enjoy this memorable event. Choosing Leah and Another Wild Hare would be a super smart move for anyone needing an Event Coordinator!

Leah from Another Wild Hare was amazing to work with, she's incredibly personable and professional, the perfect mixture for a wedding coordinator! While we had most of the big stuff handled already, she was able to fine tune the details and stick to the vision we had for our rustic-shabby chic barn wedding in Harrisonburg, VA. My groom and and I were struggling with where to make the grand entrance from and which part of the barn and venue to use for the ceremony, etc. Leah offered her opinion on the how tos and where's, which hadn't even occurred to us, it was such a relief! She had great contacts for servers for our limited budget and great craft tips since this was a mostly DIY wedding. Leah is quite the go getter and quick to respond for any couples needs, she took so much stress off our plates and we've received many compliments on the wedding and the flow of the evening. My husband and I can't speak highly enough of Leah and her services and definitely recommend her services for any big event you may have! -Claire and Ben

I can't say enough about how happy I was working with Leah. Extremely professional, thorough, and pleasant! I put a lot of work into the initial planning as I didn't initially think we needed the extra help, but once I handed over my vendor info I felt confident in Leah in picking up right where I left off. She also provided helpful information and suggestions when asked. Her follow-up and interaction with vendors was great, I had little involvement, and the weeks before as well as the big deal were seamless. My husband and I were able to enjoy all of it, which was really important to us. I would certainly recommend Leah!

Leah and Another Wild Hare were amazing! We needed a wedding planner because we would never have found the time to plan the event, but we went into the planning with an EXTREMELY limited budget, considering that we wanted to invite about 120 people. Leah found us a venue --a STUNNING new venue that was still under construction and therefore willing to give us a great deal. Leah and Danielle felt like partners throughout the process, trying to figure out not just what we wanted, but who we are as people. They totally understood the style and feeling we were aiming for. And they made the process fun with their humor, good nature, patience, and positive attitude. Whenever either of us felt nervous or stressed about any aspect of the planning, we always felt reassured and calmed after speaking with Leah or Danielle. The day felt absolutely magical and everything ran smoothly --which was no small feat. Because we were on a limited budget, we were working with 5+ vendors (2 food trucks, appetizers that needed to be picked up from elsewhere, coffee and cake delivered separately). They pulled it all off without a hitch. We can't recommend their services highly enough!

From my first meeting with Another Wild Hare they struck the perfect balance of professionalism and comfort you hope to achieve with someone planning your one and only (hopefully) wedding. We sipped champagne and discussed what I wanted (a vintage circus wedding) and ideas immediately began flowing.

They found our venue and our band and through their connections got us exactly who we wanted and at a fair price point.

They did our floral for us! And our invitations! Ever the professionals, they provided us with competitors samples and pricing but in working so closely with them, AWH turned out to be the right choice. They knew exactly what we wanted BECAUSE THEY LISTEN. So many people in this industry have preconceived notions of what you should be ordering but Another Wild Hare's staff includes so many talented people that can help you shape and improve your vision of the day by listening to what you want and building on it.

You hope that the day goes smoothly, but unfortunately that was not the case at our wedding. We encountered a catering meltdown (the only vendor we chose without the help of AWH!) and we were able to see how the planners handle pressure. They kept things from coming apart at the seams.

But what AWH did the best was the aesthetics. It is their forte. Our vintage circus themed wedding had a contortionist and juggler (which AWH found) performing at our cocktail hour. There was a popcorn machine with seasonings made by their staff and a cotton candy send off. Inside our tent hung umbrellas and dynamite lighting (that we decided on the DAY BEFORE - and they made it happen). Our photobooth had the most elegant handmade masks and props, all the type of detailed, classy work you can expect in hiring Another Wild Hare.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I very much enjoyed working with Leah. She was both organized and friendly despite complex (and probably stressful) circumstances, and I recommend her highly.
