Joy and the absolutely incredible business she has established through Fancy Peacock are the reasons our wedding went through without a hitch! If I had the means to hire this woman to plan my life on a daily basis, I would. Not only were her services needed in our case (we had our wedding at a venue that did not provide coordination the day of), but we loved that her packages fit our needs perfectly. She was one of the few event coordinator sites that we came across that advertised specifically day of coordination - a lot of other sites required us to tack on some form of coordination leading up to the day as well, which my husband and I were fine taking care of on our own. She was such a delight to work with, being incredibly clear on details she needed from us and leaving no stone unturned when it came to very specific details for a wedding. I remember feeling such a wave of relief wash over me when we had our final meeting with her and I truly saw how organized she was with all of our details, remembering items that I had forgotten out of feelings of stress leading up to our wedding weekend. She was constantly there to remind us it’s going to be ok and to remember to enjoy a day that really does go by incredibly fast. On the day of, she and her assistant helped with setup, vendor check-in, timeline check-in, and ensuring everything was moving according to schedule. She even came down to the room where I was getting hair and makeup done several times to give me personalized check-ins, which was incredibly touching. The best part was after our ceremony when Joy came right up to my husband and me, said, “Congratulations!” and placed both of our signature drinks in our hands! She knew out of experience that drinking and even eating are not always top priorities for a bride and groom, and she made sure that we were enjoying the little touches of our wedding just as much as our guests were. Cleanup was also a breeze at the end of the night because of Joy - she helped us plan a schedule ahead of time as to what items were going with which person, which is a godsend when everyone (especially family members) is a little fried at the end of the night, haha. We couldn’t have had a smoother and more joyful wedding day, thanks to Joy and her team!

Joy was awesome to work with! We did her day of coordination services but she really was there for us throughout our planning as well! She was available via email to help us with any small questions we had. She sent out helpful tip emails periodically to help us stay on track with planning. Her details sheet for the day of was daunting, but only because she really gets to know the tiniest details of your wedding so that she can run the day smoothly for you and makes sure it’s exactly what you want! I was completely calm on my wedding day knowing that she was taking care of everything. And her emergency kit came in handy throughout the day too, haha. Can’t thank her or recommend her enough!

If you’re on the fence about whether to spend the money on a coordinator or not just pull the trigger and do it! You spend all this time and money planning your big day, you want to be able to sit back and actually enjoy it when the time comes!!

If you’re going to make one definite decision about your wedding, make sure you book Joy! She was absolutely a literally joy to work with prior to and on the day of my wedding. Joy made my day so seamless and stress free. She was so organized with all of our details for the wedding. I also loved that she had her own rentals too. We ended up renting her velvet chairs for our sweetheart table. Joy was such an immense help in every aspect. We had an incident where both of our memorial collage frames broke. Joy literally saved the day and put them back together herself. She helped move items from our ceremony space to our reception that I was even questioning whether they could be moved. I can go on and on how much she made our day so peaceful. She was a true blessing to have on the day of your wedding. If you were like me and on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator, take this as your green light to hire Joy. It will be one decision about your wedding you won’t regret.
