Day of Coordinator

I used Kelly as a day of ( half day only ) coordinator and glad we did. She was very attentive to what we needed and assisted with anything that was thrown her way that day and there was a lot! One of our buses was late in arriving and she went into action trying to solve this situation. Being the MOB, i thought I could do this all myself but realized a few months before the wedding that I need some help the day of the wedding. Many wedding planners were not willingly to assist for only a half day but Kelly was able to accommodate my request.

Kelly was excellent! She was organized, kept us on schedule and deflected a lot of the “day of” logistics questions away from us so we could enjoy our wedding day.
