TARA: The OG Wedding Planner

TARA is the REAL MVP! Seriously! We could not have planned this wedding without her and sure as heck could not have pulled off our rainy day wedding without her either. Tucker and I are so incredibly thankful for Tara and how talented she is. We truly felt like she was our dear friend helping us through every step of the way. She knows her stuff and she gets it done while staying in great communication with you every step of the way. We really can't express enough how much you should hire this woman before she gets booked up! If you want a wedding planner who is communicative, on top of everything little detail (she's OCD about all of the little things just like me so that was a big WIN), cool, loving, and your biggest cheerleader then this is your girl! BONUS: Her husband was our DJ and I swear he made it the PARTY of the year. All of our friends couldn't stop telling us how insane our dance floor was and we even saw some asking for his information after the night was over! haha If you're tired of cheesy DJs and are looking for a cool one then DJ Holden It Down is your man!

A True Lifesaver!

We had to reschedule our wedding several times due to COVID. That meant Tara stepped in to help us finish planning our wedding. She was amazing, flexible, and so helpful.
On the day of our wedding, she was exactly what we needed. My grandma was so thankful that we had such an amazing person to make sure our day ran smoothly! Our wedding went off without a hitch and I know we have Tara to thank for that.

Book Tara - you won't regret it!!

Tara is THE BEST! She's so easy to work with and on top of everything. I used her for month-of wedding coordination and am so glad I did. Her response rate is fantastic! Her best quality is her demeanor - she is so calm and down-to-earth it puts you entirely at ease!

For day-of coordination, Tara was at the ready to handle anything. About an hour before our ceremony was set to begin, an actual fire started in our reception area - she handled the entire thing before I could even stress out about it. (All was fine!)

If you need a coordinator (spoiler: you do), Tara should be your choice!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
