For someone who didn't initially want to spend money on a wedding planner, all I can say is I'm SO GLAD I DID. We did a DYI backyard tented wedding at my aunt and uncle's home in Beverly, MA. I figured I'd need help with the day of coordination, but my fiance convinced me we should take on Mitch for the planning piece as well. MTD helped me with vendor selection, organizing all the vendors for the day, helping set up the day before (all the tables, chairs, decor), conducting the reahearsal, etc, etc. I completely underestimated the amount of time and effort it would take to set up under the tent, but Mitch and Danielle (plus my family and friends) were power houses! It was transformed before my eyes into the most beautiful wedding a girl could ask for. We loved dealing with Mitch - he's fun, down to earth and just all around a very cool guy. He even had to help me through a couple of "crisis" moments leading up to the wedding including when my initial catering choice cancelled at the last minute. Calm, cool and collected he guided us through the issues and behold - we had the perfect wedding day! I would not hesitate to recommend this company for your wedding planning needs.

I cannot say enough about the amazing job that Mitch and his team at Making the Day did for our wedding. We had hired him after seeing an online promotion, just to provide day-of wedding coordination and some following-up with our vendors. Our wedding was in a location that was not full-service, so we needed some help setting up and taking down decor, coordinating the bridal party, and organizing the event.

For those tasks alone that we had contracted them for, MTD executed them perfectly. But the reason I am writing this review is for all of the details far beyond their scope that they provided, just because they wanted us to have a great wedding.

Our caterer dropped the ball on several occasions, and Making the Day stepped in several times not only to follow up on the caterer's duties, but also to find us a new bartending service when the caterer reneged on that part of her contract a month before the wedding.

When I told Mitch at Making the Day that I was just going to make carnation centerpieces myself because we had used up our budget and weren't able to order them through the florist, he said he wanted us to have better than that, and coordinated and designed the centerpieces, which were absolutely beautiful, for us.

When we ran out of beer not even halfway through the wedding, he actually offered to leave and pick up more for us.

Although the cost of a wedding coordinator was never in our budget, Making the Day proved to be worth their weight in gold, and we couldn't be happier that we moved things around to be able to bring them in.

I don't know how many other issues may have happened behind the scenes at our wedding, because they were resolved without us ever knowing they happened. And at a non-full-service venue, that is a huge undertaking.

If you're considering hiring a coordinator, or think you can just do it all yourself, I would urge you to call Making the Day. They were the best investment we ever could have made.

Our wedding was the best day of my/our life so far, it was fun and entertaining and most of all RELAXING.  Making the Day took the time to listen to what we wanted for our wedding, and they also offered unique, creative suggestions that worked perfectly for us.  They paid attention to every detail, and made our big day stress free.  I cannot thank them enough for all their hard work to make our special day truly amazing.  You are in good hands when you use Making the Day.
