Our Biggest Regret Was Not Hiring Sarah Sooner!

Sarah was by far one of our favorite vendors to work with. So was so amazing that our one regret was not hiring her sooner! Even though Sarah was officially helping us just with day-of coordination and teardown, she was immensely helpful in the weeks prior to the wedding, not just in coordinating with our other vendors but also in fielding lots of the random questions that come up when you're planning a huge event you've never had to plan before. She was gracious, helpful, and prompt in answering all kinds of things that came up along the way, and on our wedding day, she took all the coordinating and problem-solving totally out of our hands so we could relax and enjoy ourselves.

We really can't recommend her services enough - especially teardown, so you can just leave at the end of the night and not worry about the details anymore! And if you're on the fence about hiring a coordinator at all, stop doubting yourself and do it.

The Best Ever!

Sarah was absolutely the best to work with!  As the mother of the bride, I was very nervous about how everything would come together for my daughter’s unique wedding vision, but Sarah was absolutely fabulous and always so pleasant to talk to! We made the best decision when we chose her as our wedding planner! Sarah's experience and knowledge of all things wedding-related were absolutely the most important piece of the puzzle in making everything come together! She and your team are amazing! We are so happy & grateful that we made the right decision in picking huebysd! Sarah always put us at ease and we greatly appreciated that! Never thought we’d work together for as long as we did thanks to the “bonus” year of waiting She was always one step ahead of things and her organization & professionalism were so appreciated! Miss you already Sarah!

HIRE SARAH... Now! Before it's too late!

Sarah is Amazing and we could not have had the wedding we did without her. We originally scheduled our wedding for August, 2019, but COVID-19 had other plans. We had to delay our wedding two separate times, which meant scheduling and re-scheduling EVERYTHING a total of three times. We also live in CA, so trying to make everything come together for a wedding in Madison, WI was no simple task.

Sarah, however, hardly seemed fazed. Everything was seamless. From securing a caterer, creating the menu we wanted, renting all of the tables, chairs, linens, china/disposables. emailing with the hair and makeup stylists regarding logistics, coordinating the ceremony, managing the flip of the ceremony space to the dinner space during the happy hour, and then flipping it again to a dance floor, to the logistics of a projector and a screen to play a pre-recorded toast from my MIL who was battling cancer in TN and couldn't attend, to the hundred other things that I didn't even know were happening in the background... EVERYTHING was perfect and went off without a hitch.

We had more compliments from our guests than I ever could have imagined about how it was the best wedding they had ever been to... and it was. :-) I'm not just saying that because it was ours. It was MUCH MUCH better than I ever imagined. I honestly did not think that I would have as much fun as I did and much of the reason for that is because we didn't have to do ANYTHING during the actual day of the wedding, except have fun and enjoy ourselves. We have Sarah to thank for that.

My sister is getting married in a week, (one month after my wedding,) and she originally didn't think she needed a wedding planner at all. After just starting to work with Sarah, I changed my sister's mind and she hired Harmonious Union Events as well.

If you're getting married, or celebrating anything to do with a marriage, DEFINITELY hire Harmonious Union Events and Sarah. She is the best and you will enjoy your wedding that much more because you did.

Thank you sarah!

Sarah has an eye for design and will turn a small idea into something more extraordinary than your wildest wedding dreams. She did a fantastic job coordinating with all of our vendors to make sure that we were truly able to enjoy our big day without stressing over little details. Numerous guests told us that our wedding was the best they had ever attended, and we owe it all to Sarah!

Absolutely Superb

So, you're looking for a wedding planner? Well, we would like to be the first to congratulate you on being done with your search - you've found the one(s)! We could not have asked for better service from HUE. From the moment we first talked to Sarah and Loni, we knew we needed them in our corner; they knew exactly what we needed and what we didn’t even know we needed. Loni not only made the planning process easy and seamless but also fun and exciting. That might not sound all that unique, but my wife and I were full-time grad students with minimal time to plan and our perfect wedding was still planned in just 4 months! They took our hopes and dreams and transformed them into a reality greater than we could have ever imagined. Not only was the planning effortless but we both enjoyed the day of, knowing that everything would be taken care of without having to ask or raise a finger. We can’t say enough good things about our experience working with HUE and if we could, we would recommend that every couple in the world work with Loni, though it sounds like her talents are moving to another part of the country. Rest assured, Sarah knows what she’s doing and we feel confident that you will be in the very best hands no matter who you work with!

This MOB and wedding planner highly recommends Sarah!

As the Founder & President of Capitol Weddings & Events, a special event consulting and wedding planning business, I especially love the details that make any event unique to a group or so special for a wedding couple. But, when a wedding event is for my own daughter and my title changes from wedding planner to Mother of the Bride, I did not hesitate to contact my friend and wedding planner extraordinaire, Sarah, of HUE by Sarah Davidson for assistance!
As an event professional but more importantly as a mom, there is no greater joy than helping your daughter plan her wedding day. And while I was able to help with many of the details involved a year out, I certainly wanted to enjoy the events leading up to this special day without worry. Having Sarah finalize the details a few months out with my daughter and her now husband, along with HUE’s on-site presence at the rehearsal and on the wedding day, made for a smooth wedding weekend.
I can’t thank Sarah enough for all of her help with the wedding coordination. Everything went amazingly well, and I so appreciate everything she handled for us. I know what a challenging job it can be to manage a wedding and coordinate all the details, but she was flawless in the execution of our wedding celebration.
Sarah is an amazing wedding planner – she is professional, poised, and gracious while juggling the details that made our wedding as we envisioned. She is also a leader with her strong involvement in our local chapters of national professional wedding organizations. Thank you so much Sarah – I highly recommend you and the HUE by Sarah Davidson team for future events!!

We love HUE

Sarah came to our rescue in a unique situation! We worked with her for a couple of weeks and the day of our wedding. She immediately reached out and remained responsive and on top of any tasks we needed help with. I’d seen her work and knew that she would do a great job when it came to such a special day for us. As a bride, last minute planning and execution of ideas can bring on so much stress. I can honestly say that having Sarah on my team of vendors gave me so much peace on our big day. Anything that may have come up never made it to me to worry about and I was able to just enjoy the day. She was incredibly professional, talented, calming and kind. My wedding party also really enjoyed her and complimented her work. Hands down I would recommend going with HUE for all your special events!

So worth it!

I am so happy we hired Sarah from Harmonious Union Events for our wedding last fall. We used her for her day of coordination services! For those on the fence about hiring a coordinator, get off the fence and hire this team!! :) I've met and worked with Sarah previously as a photographer, so I saw even back then how adaptable and flexible she made herself to have the day run smoothly. It was no different for our wedding day! She handled issues that I didn't even know about behind the scenes and also helped us transition a space. She was there every step of the way and I could not have enjoyed my day as much without her and her husband. She's also a great human being on top of it! :) Thank you Sarah!

Organized, Professional and Friendly!

We are so happy we went with HUE for our wedding coordination! We had a bit of a non-traditional venue and some odd requests and Sarah handled it all with a calm and collected attitude - and also had a lot of great suggestions for areas we were struggling to figure out. Sarah was so great to work with and we had very productive meetings and Sarah was great about proactively coordinating with other vendors and that gave us all the confidence leading up to our day. The day-of, she and her staff were incredibly attentive and organized, yet professional and friendly. I would recommend to anyone who values attention to detail and a laid back attitude to eliminate the stress of planning. Thank you to HUE for bringing everything together and giving us the ability to totally relax and enjoy our celebration.

HUE is Amazing!

We absolutely loved working with Sarah on our wedding. We first contacted HUE eight months before our date, with nothing but a venue, and within that short time she was able to make our dream wedding a reality. We hired her for full planning and day-of services, and it was worth every penny.

Sarah was always very responsive, and willing to accommodate any questions or requests we had. She was patient when we were indecisive, and was always happy to find us more options when we didn't think we had gotten it quite right. She took the time to get to know us and our vision, and truly strived to get everything just the way we wanted. She researched a ton of vendors for us, and helped us find the best matches for our goals. It was always clear how invested she was in us and our happiness.

The planning process was super regimented, and from the very beginning we had a solid timeline which made sure we were staying on target, while also not piling too much on us at once. Sarah made sure we were in contact with our vendors at the right times to get everything done when it needed to be, and that nothing slipped through the cracks. She also brought a lot of prior experience to the table and was able to suggest many wonderful little details that really enriched our day (and recommend against some that wouldn't have fit so well). All of this lifted a significant amount of stress off of our shoulders and allowed us to enjoy the process much more.

Her day-of services were especially integral to our wedding running smoothly. We ran into an issue where the venue provided incorrect measurements for one of the rooms, but during setup Sarah was able to adjust the plan and modify decor quickly, and make it work flawlessly. She and her assistant were also able to magically flip our ceremony space into a lounge space without anyone noticing it was happening!

Sarah absolutely went above and beyond to make our wedding day the best we could have wanted. She was there beginning to end, supporting us, helping us create an amazing plan, and executing it perfectly. We can't recommend her enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
