Hire Hayley!

am a very Type A person, who likes to have control of her situations. I also have a lot of anxiety (which is undoubtedly related). After a year of planning, uncertainty, postponing, emotional trauma, replanning, and more uncertainty, we just wanted what everyone wants for their wedding- to feel like it’s their day. Hayley literally made that happen for us. I cannot tell you how much Hayley’s services and help meant to me during that last couple months. We had booked her day of services in 2019, prior to the pandemic and were grateful that she was able to transfer dates when we postponed. Once we actually started working with her (about 2 months out), we realized how invaluable she was! She took care of every last minute detail and took so much of the scheduling/timing/organizing burden off of me. Since we had already booked our vendors and planned everything, our wedding was absolutely our vision and still felt very personal- Hayley just brought it together and made it actually happen! Hayley dealt with my neurotic emails and texts with so much kindness and optimism I felt “taken care of”, from contracts to weather. I didn’t have to handle any of the day-of stresses of what’s being delivered/arriving/needs to park or unload/who needs to be where when/etc. I could just “show up” to my wedding day and genuinely enjoy it. She was always professional and fun to work with. All of our vendors and family commented how great she was! I can’t thank her or recommend her enough to anyone looking for day of planning services. She’s truly a gem.

Perfect Wedding Day!

We can’t say enough great things about Hayley! We had known Hayley through a friend, and knew that she did wedding coordination, so we decided to meet with her. After our initial meeting we KNEW we had to have Hayley coordinate our wedding. I would consider myself an organized person, but I knew the months leading up to our wedding would be busy and I didn’t want to have any added stress leading up to our wedding and the day of. Hayley was with us every step of the way from the moment we booked with her. She gave us vendor recommendations on our remaining vendors, answered all of our random questions, and was a sounding board for all of our ideas. Starting at about 6 weeks out, we basically handed everything over to her to finalize. We met with her in person several times, and she created a complete minute by minute timeline, contact sheets for vendors, family, and wedding party, and lists for just about everything. Hayley answered all of our emails and texts promptly and made sure to check in frequently. Our wedding day was perfect - if anything went wrong, we had no idea because Hayley took care of it from start to finish. She even stayed throughout the whole reception and made sure our decor and gifts were packed up and sent home with the appropriate people. Many of our vendors even said they had never worked with a wedding coordinator that was so organized, responsive, and helpful throughout the whole process. We would not hesitate to recommend Hayley to anyone who wants a stress free and perfect wedding!

Wedding coordinator

OMG if you have not hired Hayley, I don’t know what you’re doing! She was seriously a godsend! My wedding would not have been possible without her and we are truly thankful. Every time we needed something she was one step ahead! Not only was she professional; but if there ever was an issue, she would handle it with a smile. You NEED Hayley in your life and we would HIGHLY recommend her in a heartbeat. ❤️
