I recommend Donna Connor and On The Go Weddings & Events!

Donna was super communicative leading up to the wedding - I think she went above and beyond what a typical "day-of coordinator" does in this way. We toured the venue with us, recommended vendors and met with us several times both with and without the venue. She was also super helpful during the rehearsal in taking the reins there. On the actual day, Donna made sure things went smoothly. One thing my mom and I especially appreciated was that when the greenery arrived, it wasn't quite long enough for what we envisioned. Donna quickly came up with a solution by weaving some bouquets into the greenery and made it look super nice.

"Donna did an incredible job planning our company party! She took care of everything from ordering the tent, tables and chairs, to running errands to get items we needed, and was ever-present to assist with whatever we needed during the party. Donna always has a smile on her face and effortlessly ensures everything goes smoothly from beginning to end! We highly recommend Donna's On The Go Concierge event planning and catering services for anyone who wants to enjoy their next party or event!" - Jennifer & Pam

Thank you Donna!!!

Donna made our big day possible!! I felt a sense of relief as soon as I hired her. Although she was our "day of coordinator," she scheduled several calls with me in the weeks leading up to the wedding and reached out to all of our vendors in advance to put together a thorough timeline. Our wedding was very DIY, and I quite literally don't think we could've pulled it off without Donna! She kept everything running smoothly on the big day so I could just enjoy myself. She also ran our wedding rehearsal the day before. She seemed to think of every little detail, which was ESSENTIAL for such a DIY event. There were farm animals at our venue, and Donna even helped wrangle a goat that escaped from an enclosure and started head butting guests ... so to say she went above and beyond would be an understatement! She also saved the day on the morning of the wedding by printing out an extra copy of a sign that got lost. Donna is a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend her!!
