Sarah was a dream to work with. I had no idea where to start or how to go about the wedding planning process, but she helped us with every step of the way and kept us on track. Having Lasting Impressions there running the day of the wedding was absolutely AMAZING. Having Sarah and her team there by my side on my wedding day made for a completely stress-free day. She took care of EVERYTHING for us and made sure that my mom and I had nothing to worry about so that we were free to just soak it all in and enjoy.

10/10 with Sarah & Lasting Impressions
Sarah Trotter is the absolute best. Not only is she extremely fun and happy to work with, she is extremely talented at what she does! We used Sarah & team for their full-service option and could not be happier we did. She was with us every step of the way -- flower meetings, food tasting, venue check-ins, etc. In addition to constantly emailing us and vendors, checking in to make sure we're feeling okay, giving ideas/brainstorming all the way up to the day of. Day of was a MUST have Sarah. She did EVERYTHING. My flowers came out a little different than expected and it was fixed within minutes. She handled everything and the day went absolutely perfect (in our minds, which is exactly what you want!) I even forgot to put guest food preferences on the cards -- Sarah took care of it. I bought a sign with our last name on it last minute -- Sarah helped paint it.
Sarah & team are absolutely unbelievable and I would recommend to any bride & groom that want to have the most seamless planning and wedding day!

Lasting Impressions sets the bar high for an amazing event. Sarah is a delight to work with and delivers comprehensive customer service better than the rest! I love to refer brides to Lasting Impressions.
Sarah is a great planner to work with. Most planners don't understand or take the time to know each vendors roles they have to make an event special for the couple. I met Sarah before the event for a walk through with the couple and we stayed in communication leading up to the event. It really felt like we were a team serving one purpose, the couple. She's a great listener and has a wonderful creative sense to take the couple's ideas in what they envision for their reception from the colors to the decorations and bring them to life. Sarah is not only a great vendor to work with, she is a "fun" vendor to work with and brings a lot energy, personality, compassion and professionalism to her work to make it a great experience for her couples. I look forward to working with Sarah again.
