Absolutely the best!!

I was originally not planning on having a wedding coordinator but after talking to a few friends whose daughters were recently married, I am really happy that I did. Colleen was amazing to work with. Very easy to talk to, pro-active in communicating with the vendors and myself. She always responded quickly to questions that I had and provided thoughtful insight to wedding day decisions that needed to be made. She arrived early on the wedding day and had everything set up in time and the ceremony and reception went on without any issues at all. Thanks to Colleen I had a stress free wedding day and I highly recommend her for your wedding day!!!

Highly recommend Colleen

I was a guest at a wedding Colleen coordinated and was impressed by her professionalism, thoughtful touches, and organization. Her coordination skills allowed the bridal party and all who attended to relax because she had thought of everything! I highly recommend working with her!

Everyone needs a Colleen!

We hired Colleen as our day-of coordinator for our 150 person wedding in July 2021 and it was the best decision!

She did everything from the timing of the wedding ceremony, leading my aunts with the table decor and even helping groomsmen pin on their boutonnières (pictured).

If I would have had to manage all of the day-of little changes that Colleen did (such as the weather starting to sprinkle even though it was 90 degrees and the caterer being 30 minutes late) I wouldn’t have been able to be fully present. With her help, I was!

Everyone needs a Colleen on their wedding day! Her professionalism, sense of urgency and hard working yet joyful personality were what we liked best. We genuinely had no complaints and refer her to all of our friends and family!

I know it sounds super corny, but I love love. And I love getting to be a part of one of the most special days of a couple's lives. Day of coordinating is fast paced, busy, productive, and invigorating! I got my start in events in college when I worked on the University of Washington Relay for Life planning committee. From there I moved into wedding day of coordinating pretty organically through friends of friends and word of mouth. After teaching and doing it on the side for almost ten years, it is now my full-time job and passion!
