Leave it to Marnie

Marnie and Michele were such a gift to work with! I had a challenging situation where my venue suddenly required me to hire a private event coordinator for day-of wedding services, and I was not informed by the venue of this change. I was connected with Marnie by our officiant and she immediately stepped in with grace and took all the worries off my plate. She met with me multiple times, helped me connect with a phenomenal florist, and ensured that all my wedding dreams came true. The day of the wedding, Michele from Marnie’s team was there onsite for everything. She got me new hair pieces when I lost mine, decorated the venue, ensured everyone knew what to do, and then handled cleaning up and delivering items back to our hotel room. I hadn’t realized how much I would need the level of support I got from Marnie and Michele, but I am beyond thrilled that I mhad them by my side. I promise you, you will not be disappointed if you hire Marnie and her team!

Marnie and her team were exceptional! She saw every detail that needed attention. Great experience brought to her management of my daughter's wedding. Super easy to work with!!

Marnie was professional, thoughtful, and best of all, affordable. She made sure we had everything in order, especially things we wouldn’t have thought of without her. Our wedding day was perfect, and we have Marnie to thank for that. 5 stars!!

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Marnie and her team. If I could leave separate five-star reviews for her organization, knowledge, responsiveness, compassion, helpfulness, and incredible staff, I absolutely would.

When we started planning for the wedding, I honestly didn't think I needed a wedding planner. Looking back now, I couldn't have been more wrong and I regret not reaching out to her sooner (like the day I got engaged)! Hiring Marnie was, without question, the single best decision I made during the entire wedding process. It wasn't just worth every penny—it was worth so much more. Our wedding was not just a single event, it was 3 nights and 3 separate parties (it included a 50th birthday) and Marnie and her team organized it all!

I was a very laid-back, low-maintenance bride throughout the planning process. Everything was going smoothly, and I felt completely in control...until the day before the wedding, when suddenly everything seemed to happen at once. Questions were flying, vendors and guests were arriving, timelines were shifting, people needed answers, and I started to feel overwhelmed.

Marnie and her team saved me. They completely took over.

This is not to say they didn’t have it handled before. But they could see I was stressed and without hesitation, they stepped in, handled every detail (beautifully), solved problems before I even knew they existed, coordinated everyone flawlessly, and somehow made the chaos disappear. Instead of worrying, I got to be present with my family and friends and actually enjoy one of the most important weekends of my life. That is an incredible gift, and I will never forget it.

From day one, Marnie was unbelievably organized, incredibly knowledgeable, always responsive, endlessly helpful, and so compassionate. Things I didn’t know I wanted or needed, she knew. Things I did want, she made happen. I don’t know another way to express how professional and fantastic she was. She genuinely cared about making our day perfect, and it showed in every interaction. Her staff was equally amazing—professional, kind, calm under pressure, and always one step ahead. Our guests LOVED them and wanted them to stay and party! Having them there for our “welcome party / rehearsal” then all day for my wedding saved us.

Our wedding weekend was absolutely perfect, and so much of that is because of Marnie and her team. I honestly don't know how anyone plans a wedding without someone like her. If you're debating whether to hire a wedding planner, stop debating. Do it. And hire Marnie! She exceeded every expectation I had, gave me complete peace of mind, and allowed me to simply enjoy getting married. I have zero regrets, only gratitude. Thank you, Marnie, for making our wedding everything we dreamed of and more. You are truly one of a kind.

Deciding to reach out to Marnie a couple months before our wedding was the best decision we made. Marnie immediately made us feel at ease and seamlessly took over all communication and managing aspects of our event. We hired Marnie as a day of coordinator however feel as though she went above and beyond that title. 10/10 would absolutely recommend using Marnie for your wedding needs!

Absolutely prefect, no issues whatsoever. Marni loves what she does and it shows in every aspect!

Marnie and her team were absolutely amazing from the beginning of the wedding planning to the final moments of the wedding day. She is professional, helpful and truly understands how to execute a beautiful experience and make your dreams a reality. We are 100% satisfied with every aspect of our wedding planning journey with Marnie and highly recommend her!

If you are planning a wedding and need a planner, I cannot recommend Marnie enough.

We actually first worked with Marnie back in 2018 when she helped with my sister’s wedding, and she was amazing then. So when I got engaged, reaching out to her was an absolute no brainer.

From the beginning she was there for everything…answering my million questions, helping with every little detail, and making the whole planning process feel so much less overwhelming. She truly handled so much behind the scenes and kept everything running smoothly.

On the day of the wedding, Marnie was incredible. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing because I knew she had it all under control. That allowed us to just enjoy the day and soak in every moment.

Marnie is not only amazing at what she does, but she’s also just a genuinely wonderful person. I’m so grateful we got to work with her again and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone planning a wedding.

Marnie, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We love you!

Marnie is truly the absolute best. If you want to enjoy your wedding day and have a completely stress free experience, you need to hire her, no question!
We had the most incredible day, and it’s all thanks to Marnie. Several of our vendors even told us our wedding was one of the easiest they’ve ever worked, which says so much about the level of organization and professionalism she brings. I worked with her for about a year, and she was always there for anything we needed, no matter how big or small. When our original venue unexpectedly fell through just 3 ½ months before the wedding, Marnie jumped in immediately and helped us find another beautiful venue I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. She completely saved the day. She is so easy to work with, incredibly organized, and just an all around wonderful person. We are beyond grateful for everything she did to make our wedding so special. Also, Debbie and Ginger were absolutely fabulous, such an amazing team all around! Thank you Marnie for everything!

Working with Marnie Kennedy of Leave It to Marnie was nothing short of a blessing. Just two weeks before our wedding, my family experienced an unimaginable loss with the unexpected passing of my ex-husband and the father of my children. In the midst of grief and overwhelming emotions, Marnie stepped in and essentially took over the entire planning process without hesitation.

Her compassion, professionalism, and ability to handle every detail allowed us the space to focus on what truly mattered—being there for our children during such a difficult time. She and her team went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was not only seamless, but as beautiful and meaningful as it could possibly be given the circumstances.

Because of Marnie and her team, our day was filled with love, support, and moments we will forever cherish. We were so grateful for her that she is now planning our daughter’s wedding, and we couldn’t imagine trusting anyone else with such an important day.

I truly don’t know what we would have done without her. If you are looking for someone who genuinely cares and will show up for you in every possible way, I would highly recommend Marnie and her team at Leave It to Marnie to plan your next event—they are simply the best.
