The day was perfect

Having attended many weddings in my life and been in bridal parties and exposed to other wedding planners, I can say with certainty that Michele is top tier. Working with her was best decision I made for my wedding. From the very beginning she was fun and professional, quick to communicate, helped us feel comfortable about our budget, and helped manage my stress every step of the way. Her genuine excitement for planning the wedding kept my spirits high without ever making me feel overwhelmed and her team was equally enjoyable to work with. 

Michele’s experience and connections across the industry are truly impressive and she works with the best vendors. Her florist created the most beautiful centerpieces beyond what I could’ve hoped for, and her baker delivered a cake that exceeded all of my expectations. Our guests complimented every aspect of the wedding—from the stunning florals to the delicious cake and excellent catering. Her photographer guided me and my husband seamlessly through pictures and helped us to not feel so awkward!

The day itself went perfectly and I wouldn’t change a single thing. While I’m sure there were small hiccups along the way, Michele and her team handled everything so effortlessly that I never even had to know. I was able to fully enjoy the day knowing I was in the best hands.

I plan to hire Michele and her team again in the future for work parties and other celebrations, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Best day of our lives ❤️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Where do I even begin with Michelle and her incredible team, Gina and Lauren. Planning a wedding is a big task at the best of times — but planning a destination wedding from abroad could have been overwhelming. Thanks to them, it was the complete opposite.

From day one, they went so far above and beyond what we ever expected from a wedding planning team. This wasn’t just coordination — they truly took ownership of every single detail and made the entire process feel seamless, calm, and actually enjoyable.

They helped us bring our vision to life in ways we couldn’t have imagined — from the overall feel of the ceremony and venue, to the most thoughtful personal touches. Whether it was organising every supplier, managing timelines across time zones, or guiding us through decisions we didn’t even know we needed to make, they handled it all with such care, clarity, and professionalism.

What really stood out was their creativity and attention to detail. From the small things like perfectly done place cards, to the bigger, completely bespoke elements — helping us ideate bringing in 100 trees for decoration, and even creating personalised lights of our puppies on the wall — they made everything feel so personal and “us”. It was beyond anything we could have pulled off on our own.

Across the whole weekend — from the welcome party through to the wedding day itself — everything ran flawlessly. And not just logistically, but emotionally too. They created such a calm, supportive environment, and we always felt completely looked after.

Beyond their talent, they are just genuinely wonderful people. Kind, thoughtful, patient, and so invested in making your day perfect. You can feel how much they care.

If you’re planning a wedding — especially a destination wedding — I cannot recommend Michelle, Gina, and Lauren highly enough. They are truly a dream team and we feel so lucky to have had them

Greater than what we could have ever hoped for!

My partner and I wanted a small wedding. Photos and a dinner, nothing more.

Michele and her team took that desire and ran with it! Michele has a stacked black book of trusted contacts and vendors who made our wedding extraordinary!

Weddings cost money, that's just how it is, but putting our faith in Michele's network got us something better than we could have hoped!

Thank you Michele!

The perfect everything.

I want to have a second wedding asap so I can work with Michele and her team again. I found the wedding planning experience to be so enjoyable and I can’t help but think that’s all because of Michele’s magic touch and overall knowledge of vendors and timelines etc. I feel likeu each meeting took away all of our anxieties around the “big day.”

We can’t recommend Center of Attention enough

Our favorite team

Michele, Lauren, Gina, and Mary are the best team you could ask for when planning a big event. Over 1.5 years, the team was communicative, detail-oriented, dedicated, and so patient with all our ideas, and executed the wedding of our dreams. The team was so passionate about our wedding, which eased every worry we could have had. They were able to execute everything flawlessly, and we will be using them for all our events moving forward! We are so grateful for this team and consider them family now!

Five stars

I had the pleasure of working with Michele as my wedding planner. From the very beginning, Michele was organized, attentive, and thoughtful in the details. She took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life. Her calm presence, creative ideas, and problem-solving skills made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. On the big day, everything ran flawlessly—allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares, communicates clearly, and will go above and beyond to make your day perfect, Michele is the one.

Creativity with Love

One of my favorite memories from our wedding day and all of the planning up to the big day was our interactions with Michele.

From the moment we met her, we felt this genuine connection, and could not stop smiling after our introduction. I figured, we picked a venue, have our wedding outfits and a guest list, that is all we need, right? Well, if we didn't have Michele and her amazing team, I would have been a deer in headlights!

Every conversation with her, you learn a little bit more about yourself. Her attention to details, understanding who you are individually and as a couple shines in her work. I don't have much of a creative eye, I didn't know what florals to choose or colors, all I had was a vision, inspired by my childhood. Michele brought it to life.

Over the years, I have heard my friends say "Make sure you enjoy your big day" or "I wish I had time to enjoy the big day, I was so stressed out". Michele, because of you, we were able to enjoy every moment of our week long celebration. Thank you for all of the emotional support, the comforting eye contact and reminding me to take deep breaths. You kept us on schedule and made sure we had moments to ourselves to take it all in!

Michele truly enjoys what she does and it shows. As I look back at our wedding photographs, I love seeing all the little details, representing us. She plays with creativity and makes dreams come true!

Big moments in life truly take a village, and thank you for being part of ours. Thank you for always keeping in touch even after the wedding, and being part of our lives.

Authentic!

It was amazing seeing Michele and her team’s work firsthand! The level of professionalism and thoroughness from our very first virtual meet when we were just testing the waters, to the day of our event was amazing. I simply just felt a connection and authenticity with Michele and am so very relieved that we decided to entrust our occasion to her experienced hands.
