The best decision I made for my wedding day!

Planning a wedding is stressful, but the actual day of the wedding is whole other level of stressful! I came across Sara's services while considering a wedding 'day-of-coordinator' at the recommendation of my venue's coordinator. As I soon experienced personally, Sara had incredible reviews and the common theme was her meticulous attention to detail. We started working together closely about one month before the wedding day. Sara was a great resource when questions or unexpected decisions came up. She made sure the day was exactly as I imagined; ensuring the venue staff and vendors were well informed of my and my fiancés preferences. My family and I both agree retaining Sara's services was the best decision - and investment - I could have made for my wedding day!

Well worth it!

I hired Sara as a month-of wedding coordinator in May 2026. She was wonderful to work with! She was professional, thoughtful, and down to earth. She helped me fine-tune plans for the big day with weekly check-ins, but did so in a way that respected my budget and priorities without being overbearing or adding stress. The day of, she was indispensable! She helped manage my family's personal needs so I did not have to worry about them, orchestrated the aisle procession for our church ceremony, made sure we stayed on track for our photos and travel to our reception, and coordinated with all the vendors for set up and break down. Don't leave yourself being the one everyone is going to for these things on your wedding day! I'm so glad I went ahead and booked with Sara, she is worth the money and is so easy to work with. I would recommend her to any of my friends!

Highly recommend!

Sara was the month-of coordinator for our wedding. She was wonderful to work with and we highly recommend her! Sara brought a superb level of organization and attention to detail to the day and allowed everything to run smoothly. She worked well with all our vendors (who commented on how much they appreciated her) and coordinated the day's schedule perfectly. Our families also really enjoyed spending time with her and were grateful for her expertise!

Sara helped us in a pinch!

I reached out to Sara once I realized we’d need some more help than we anticipated. What I loved about working with her is that she sets up weekly calls before the big day. This is crucial to making sure everything goes seamlessly.

She has great contacts in the industry and helped make sure that we found the right contacts. One example is we at the last minute decided to get cake and she provided the best recommendation that was able to make it happen for us.

I can’t recommend Sara enough!

Month-of Coordination Done Perfectly

Sara was absolutely crucial to the success of our wedding day. We hired her for her month-of coordination, and it was the best decision we made. From the moment she took over, she completely alleviated our stress by taking the time to truly understand our vision and exactly how we wanted the day to unfold.

Sara is extremely communicative and incredibly detail-oriented. She kept us informed every step of the way and anticipated needs we didn't even know we had. On the wedding day, everything ran seamlessly, so we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment because we could trust that Sara had everything under control.

If you're looking for a coordinator who genuinely cares and executes flawlessly, look no further than Event Planning by Sara. We can't recommend her highly enough!

My most important vendor!

I had planned my whole wedding, and had a very low key one. However, I knew I needed someone the day of to keep things in order. Sara came in the last month of planning, helped out more than expected with little details I didn’t think of, and kept everything extremely seamless. Her attention to detail & composure on one of the most stressful days was unmatched. She was my go-to!!! She even walked my nervous nephew down the aisle! I cannot say enough about Sara’s perfect mix of professionalism & personalism. She genuinely made our special day so much better, and took so much stress off our shoulders. Without Sara, I really don’t believe I could’ve enjoyed my day as much. Thank you Sara!!!

The best wedding decision you'll make!

I was initially skeptical of needing a wedding planner —and was quickly proven wrong. Sara was amazing and so easy to work with, and I cannot recommend her more! She kept me on track, thought of so many details that wouldn't have crossed my mind, and was a godsend with juggling communication between all of our vendors. The day of, she was amazing, corraling our easily distractible wedding party and family with a truly impressive level of efficiency, and kept everything running smoothly. If anything went wrong on the day, I heard nothing about it, which is exactly what you want!

Hiring Sara was the best decision we made for our wedding!

We weren’t sure how much a “month-of” coordinator would really help since most of the planning happens beforehand, but hiring Sara was truly one of the best decisions we made! In the month leading up to the wedding, she met with us weekly, kept us organized, and handled so many details we hadn’t even considered. She also communicated directly with our vendors, which took a huge weight off our shoulders.

On the wedding day, having Sara there gave us so much peace of mind. She made sure everything ran seamlessly so we could focus on being in the moment and enjoying our guests. We truly don’t know how we would have done it without her. Highly, highly recommend!

very much appreciated!

Sara was very communicative and professional. We appreciated her flexibility with scheduling calls and follow up to-do reminders with each meeting. Her hand-ons contributions to the setup of our special touches really helped make our vision possible. For the day of, she was instrumental in keeping the direction and flow to the wedding, while still making sure the bride and groom were taken care of throughout. While we did opt for some less-advised changes (all pretty small) from the standard wedding flow, Sara still rolled with the punches and made sure things came together in the end without adding stress to the moment. We really appreciated her organization and all that she did to make our day perfect.

Sara is fantastic

Sara has the art of event planning mastered. We were having a wedding in a different state for 150 people and were feeling the pressure of keeping everything in line. Sara worked with us for the preceding month and the day of, and everything went so much better than we could've imagined.

We met with her once per week leading up and she connected with all of our other vendors and the venue to build out a timeline and get everyone on the same page. She was always available by phone or email whenever we thought of new questions, but any question we had she had already resolved. On the day of, she was present throughout the day to make sure everyone knew where to be (myself often included) and that we didn't miss anything. She struck the perfect balance between getting everyone to follow the timeline without being intrusive. The difference between having to coordinate everything yourself vs. just being able to enjoy your wedding day is enormous.

So many guests came up to us afterwards asking for her contact info for their own weddings. If you are looking for a wedding planner, this is your sign to stop searching and go with Sara.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
