Partial planning

Maura is great for helping you plan and execute your wedding! She is super flexible when it comes to setting up meetings or just sending her a quick text if you need something! She went above and beyond for our wedding and I am so grateful we had her there to execute on the big day and see my vision come to life!

Literally perfect, highly recommend!

We had our Chattanooga wedding in September of 2025 and boy are Maura and her team spectacular! Her prices are beyond affordable compared to the work that she puts in during the planning process and day of.

Maura was incredibly flexible to last minute schedule and decor changes, helped us through last minute DJ dropouts, and even recommended our photography company (who also did awesomely).

She facilitated our wedding decor and I cannot stress enough how good everything looked. Literally better than we imagined. There was an unexpected punk(?) rock (?) open mic concert across the street from our venue and I thought, "well there goes a serene ceremony." Maura (unprompted) asked them to pause their event so that we could have our ceremony - which they did (crisis averted!). She made sure we ate enough, had special personal moments throughout the day, and organized our sendoff and cleanup.

We still get calls from Friends and Family about how awesome Maura and her team were. We really can't express how much we recommend her to anyone planning a wedding (really anyone planning anything)! Thanks for being awesome Maura!

Highly recommend MLCelebrating!

Maura was very responsive during the wedding planning before the big day. Helped know what questions to ask the vendors and communicated with our vendors for important details. Their team made the process seamless and made my Pinterest board come to life on the wedding day! Highly recommended!

Perfect everything!

As the mother of the bride of a wedding this past weekend, I cannot say enough about Maura and her team. Maura truly knows exactly how to make the wedding day perfect. She understands the importance of the little touches from the rehearsal to the very end of the reception.
Maura worked tirelessly with my daughter and I and took everything we wanted into consideration and made sure that we were both happy with her services. She stayed in communication with both of us throughout this entire process.
She made sure that I was able to enjoy my daughter’s wedding day as much as my daughter did. She worked a few hours even after we had left the venue to make sure everything was put away and ready for us to come in and clean up the last bit of stuff the day after.
If I could give Maura 20 out of 10 stars, I would! I cannot recommend her services enough. She truly made my daughter’s wedding day everything that was desired and dreamt about. Honestly, if you need a wedding coordinator, you should look no further than Maura as she is the perfect one!

Made Our Day Smooth!

Maura was a full on planner for my husband and my wedding. We found the most value in the day of planner. Everything felt smooth and easy. It's always hard to communicate what your vision for your wedding is and where to get started but Maura's check ins and to do lists were a great asset. At times, it did feel like I still didn't know what direction to take with the planning and if I was really on target but it all ended up being perfect and dreamy.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
