Reviews of Friend of the Bride

Krista is exceptionally organized, friendly, and down to earth. She not only works with the bride, but makes sure to include all parties to make the wedding a more personal occasion. She specializes in outdoor receptions, and this is clearly portrayed in her work! I highly recommend her as a friend and colleague.

Krista Hastings...we could not have done it without her!

We had a "destination" wedding in Maine this fall. Destination, as we both live elsewhere but I'm from Maine. We hired her mostly for week-of-the-wedding services, although she did suggest a few vendors in the area. My only real quibble is that in the pre-wedding phase (not the week before), she was a bit busy or maybe overextended. But once she's focused on you, that's all you need.

The week of the wedding, she was absolutely indispensable. We met a week before the wedding and reviewed all the things left to do. Everything got done and then some. She handled everything with calm and consummate professionalism. She was even able to coral our boisterous (and probably already tipsy) wedding party through the rehearsal with skill. She has a plethora of tools in her van for any last-minute hiccup, including a printer! The day-of preparations went incredibly smoothly...every last detail did not escape her notice. The reception came off without a hitch. And the chaos of the morning after wasn't so much chaos after all thanks to Krista. Moreover, she does everything with warmth, good humor, and a smile.

I never want to plan a wedding again, but if I had to, I'd hire her again in a heartbeat.
