Perfect planning with Firefly!

What an amazing experience working with Summer. She has a calming, and thorough professionalism about her. During the planning phases, she was organized and responded quickly to messages. It feels like she’s by your side through it all. Whatever your vision is, she will bring it into existence. And if you’re unsure about some details, she will provide options and talk it through with you. As for the day of, she made it seemless, as if it all came together magically, but it was Summer’s skill that made it happen. She goes above and beyond, and if I could repeat my wedding every weekend like I want to, it would be with Summer as my planner!

Absolutely Wonderful

Kate Edwards-Baumbach was stellar in everything that was presented to her. Attention to detail... was remarkable.. her communication was even better. She made my bride and I so much more comfortable with the entire event. Her charm was splendid.

Through every moment she was there, even with as much spontaneity as we encountered throughout the entire event and everything leading up to it. She just made everything as smooth as could be expected.

I highly recommend Firefly and more importantly Kate.. for their unmatched services.

6 stars!

Impeccable perfection!

Summer was THE ABSOLUTE BEST!! I knew I had nothing to worry about with her as my day of coordinator. Having her come on 60 days out wasn’t what I thought I needed, but ended up being the very thing I needed. She was worth every penny! Her attention to detail and thorough/thoughtful communication were a large part of her paramount professionalism. I am someone who great with event planning but has never planned a wedding, and she was definitely needed for the small but very important details.

I had a strong wedding vision I worked diligently on, and she helped execute every detail to absolute perfection. We were staying on site at our venue. When I left the morning of the wedding to get ready at a friends, things were ready to be put in place but there was A LOT to do. When I pulled up to the venue for our first look, my breathe was completely taken away. It was beautiful!!

Her demeanor is so calm and she magically was right there when I needed her without even looking for her. She isn’t pushy but is so thorough which is what you want and need for your perfect day. Initially I thought her cost was a little high but when it was finished, I felt like she was well underpaid. If you hire her I promise you it will be money very well spent.
