Perfect Day!

After postponing our wedding due to Covid, my fiancé and I decided to hire a wedding coordinator to relieve some of my stress — I wish we had done it sooner!

Tyra is a godsend. She is professional, prompt, organized and has an amazing vendor network. I saved hundreds of dollars using her recommendations for florals, lighting and hair.

Our wedding day was perfect! As with any wedding, there were a few hiccups throughout the day, but I had no clue. Tyra took care of everything from start to finish. To top it all off, hubby and I left for our honeymoon the morning after the wedding, so Tyra returned our rental linens so we wouldn’t incur a late fee! Top notch service. I’d recommend her any day!

The BEST Wedding Coordinator

I cannot say enough good things about working with Tyra. She went well above and beyond my expectations to make sure our wedding day went off without a hitch. We were able to fully enjoy our day knowing all the details were in Tyra's care.

Her attention to detail is unmatched, and she managed our collection of vendors with professionalism and ease. Throughout the planning process, she made herself available to answer questions and give recommendations. In the weeks leading up to the event, she took over vendor comms, created a wonderful timeline and venue layout, and generally took all the stress off my shoulders. 100% recommend bringing a coordinator on board for the weeks leading up the event, not just day-of; this was absolutely critical to everything running smoothly.

I am a ridiculously Type A person who has professional experience with event planning, and Tyra thought of details even I missed. She's also a delightful, lovely person, and that makes her all the more fun to work with. Seriously, you need her for your big day.

From our first meeting, her professional experience was evident. She helped us hone in on the essential tasks that we needed to get done, and acted as a sounding board for our ideas and frustrations, contributing helpful advice and ideas of her own. Tyra is highly organized and has created timely and easy-to-follow systems for communication and keeping you updated. She not only anticipates your needs and proactively problem solves, but is a delight as she does it! We received multiple compliments from our vendors throughout our planning process about Tyra's work, helpful communication, and friendliness. For individuals or couples considering Events by Tyra, we wholeheartedly recommend her planning and event coordination prowess! Best to you Tyra! We are so thankful for your time and skill and truly enjoyed working and laughing with you!
