Clearwater Wedding Reception

We cannot imagine planning or having our wedding reception without Erika!! Planning a "destination" event was a daunting task since we weren't very familiar with the Clearwater area, but Erika made the process easy and enjoyable. Through in-person, virtual meetings, and emails, she kept our planning timeline on track. Her vendor recommendations were always on point! On the day of the reception, she made everything run smoothly. From decorating the venue within 2.5hrs to being one-step ahead with every aspect of the schedule to wrapping everything up at the end of the night, she didn't miss a single detail. Above all, she was a joy to work with - kind, even-keeled, and talented. We cannot recommend Erika enough!! (It was also really fun to work with Erika and Hunter together - they make a great team!)

Exceptional Wedding Coordination by Erika O'Brian for a Truly Unique and Seamless Celebration

I recently had the pleasure of working with Erika O'Brian as my wedding coordinator, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for her outstanding service. Erika went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was not only smooth but also an absolute success, even as we incorporated unconventional elements that made our celebration truly unique.

What set Erika apart was her ability to seamlessly handle the non-traditional aspects of our wedding. From fire breathers to aerialists pouring champagne, live dance and song performances from the bride and groom, arriving by boat, and many more outside-the-box ideas – Erika embraced each concept with enthusiasm and executed them flawlessly. Every idea I brought to Erika to help me execute was done without question or concern.

Our run of show was undoubtedly more complex than your typical wedding, and I can't emphasize enough how well Erika handled it all. Her creativity, flexibility, and attention to detail were crucial in bringing our unconventional vision to life. Erika's ability to navigate the intricacies of our unique celebration while maintaining the highest level of professionalism truly exceeded our expectations.

Working with Erika was a breeze, especially considering the various personalities involved in the planning process. With a lot of 'Type A' individuals in the mix, Erika's exceptional organizational skills and emotional intelligence shone through. She navigated the challenges seamlessly, demonstrating an innate ability to handle big personalities with grace and professionalism.

In summary, I would highly recommend Erika O'Brian to anyone seeking a wedding coordinator, especially for those looking to infuse creativity into their special day. Erika's exceptional organizational skills, adaptability, and unwavering commitment made our wedding not only memorable but also a true reflection of our personalities and vision.

Thank you, Erika, for your extraordinary service and for ensuring that our unique celebration was executed with precision and flair.

Highly recommended!
