The best!!!

Don’t even know where to begin… Ryan works magic!! She was incredibly attentive, easy to work with and professional. And on top of that, she was cool as a cucumber throughout the entire process. She made our day so, so special and we are forever grateful to her. Could not recommend Ryan enough!!

The BEST decision we made for our wedding!

There are too many words to describe how wonderful Organized Occasions is and why you NEED them for your wedding day. Ryan and her team went above and beyond to make the entire wedding planning process as smooth and seamless as it could be. If you're the Type A person like I am, you tend to get nervous about the small details / checking in with vendors to make sure everything is on track. When Ryan stepped in to help out in the last few months, I could see all of the details come together and was able to actually enjoy this time of engagement and planning period. It's a rare thing to actually enjoy the few months leading up to the wedding and Ryan made it happen for us! The wedding day was more perfect than I could have dreamed. Ryan and Michelle handled all communication with vendors and made sure every detail was how we envisioned it so that my husband, family, and I could enjoy every minute of it. Ryan is the absolute BEST person to work with. She is incredibly smart, funny, wise, and such a joy to be around. She and her team are everything you need leading up to the wedding day. Do not hesitate booking Organized Occasions. You will not regret it!!

exceeds all expectations!!!!

I can’t say enough good things about organized occasions and Michelle!!! Michelle was our wedding coordinator and from the second we met for the initial meeting, I immediately felt so much better about everything. She asked about details I would have never thought of without her but things that we needed to think about. She sent me updated lists of decisions we still needed to make in the weeks leading up to the wedding and that was SO helpful. She did way more than what was expected from her and it was worth every penny and then some. Everyone told me before that something WILL go wrong so just be ready for it. But NOTHING went wrong, there were no hiccups. She made our day run flawlessly all while remaining so calm and polite. I didn’t have to think about anything. She picked up all our reception items (pictures, band props, favors, signage, tips for vendors) earlier that week and delivered it all to the venue on Saturday so I didn’t have to think about it. She also took my wedding dress and veil there!! We got married at a church and they had their own coordinator for the ceremony but Michelle still came to the rehearsal (she did not have to) just to make announcements to make sure everyone was on the same page for the next day and knew the timeline. We had a wedding party of 28 people but that did not faze her at all. She also delivered items to us after the wedding on Sunday morning so my mom didn't have to worry about taking everything home that night. This was an add on for $75 - which IMO is not enough for what she did. Highly recommend Organized Occasions!!! We are going to miss Michelle!!!!

Couldn't have done it without them!

Ryan and her team are my wedding guardian angels. Ryan was always prepared for every meeting we had together, knew the right questions to ask, was proactive, and I truly could not have done it without her. I knew my big day was in the right hands and it could not have been more perfect. Hiring her allowed me to truly enjoy the day and not worry about a thing. From coordinating all of our vendors to even getting a great video of us after our videographers had left, I could not be more grateful for her.

Ryan made my wedding day PERFECT!

Ryan is an INCREDIBLE planner and the single reason my wedding day went off without a hitch. She is calm, positive, and SO detail oriented - all of the qualities I needed on my big day. From navigating family dynamics, to week-of changes, I couldn't be more grateful that I was referred her way. If you are considering hiring Ryan and her team, don't even think twice. I promise it will be the easiest and best decision you make!!

We love you Ryan!! Love, The Taylors

The BEST wedding planner!!

Ryan, the founder of Organized Occasions, was the best decision that we ever made during our wedding planning process. She’s responsive, personable, professional, and detail oriented. She also has substantial expertise and amazing vendor relations from years of experience in the industry. Ryan was committed to making my wedding day the best possible day. No task was too too small or too big! I had multiple people tell me that I was the most relaxed, stress-free bride they’ve ever seen - all thanks to Ryan.

Excellent and Professional Service

After interviewing 3 wedding planners, Ryan Marston at Organized Occasions was an easy win. She was able to provide a menu of options that worked perfectly with our needs. Her professionalism was evident as well as her knowledge of the world of all things wedding. As we proceeded through the process, she provided invaluable experience and made our wedding planning and actual day proceed smoothly and calmly. She kept us organized by providing time tables and schedules that made sense and kept us on track. She honored our budget and gave helpful suggestions to keep us within the budget, while honoring our preferences. I highly recommend her for your special occasion.

Don't even think about it - hire her

Ryan came highly recommended and was a terrific choice to coordinate our wedding. She seemingly knows everyone in the Atlanta wedding industry and even used to work in-house at our venue prior to starting her own business so she was able to anticipate everything that would happen. Our wedding was perfectly scheduled and went off without a hitch thanks to her and we cannot recommend her enough.

Ryan helped make our wedding dreams come true!

Ryan is the BEST planner- hands down! She made our wedding dreams come true and put our vision to life. She is so incredibly talented and the absolute best to work with. The entire day and night was seamless and so smooth thanks to her timeline and execution. In the months leading up to the wedding, she was there to answer any and all questions. Our day would not have been what it was without Ryan!! I can’t say enough about her and Organized Occasions!

Hire Ryan NOW :)

If you are debating whether you need a wedding planner or day-of coordinator because you are 1.) already very organized and 2.) on a budget, I'm here to convince you to at LEAST consider a day-of coordinator, and Ryan is who you need to hire. I will admit that prior to wedding planning, I wasn't sure the value of a day-of coordinator, but Ryan's services go beyond just "the day of." We began talking weeks before our first wedding (March 2020, postponed), she helped quarterback all the vendors when we postponed to April 2021, and kept us on track with all the details that I had overlooked even with my meticulous planning. She is flexible, but also honest and straight-forward, which was helpful when I was going down the Pinterest rabbit hole early on in planning and kept me focused on what mattered and what didn't. Ryan is very responsive and professional, and always made me LESS stressed rather than more. She is the perfect combination of ultra-prepared and detail-oriented, but never shows an ounce of stress or annoyance. On our wedding day, my husband and I kept telling each other how glad we were that we hired Ryan and what a calming (and fun!) presence she was. Michelle, who was also there on our wedding day, was also fabulous and helpful --thank you for all your help! :) We would hire Ryan again in a heartbeat. Thank you, thank you for everything.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
