So thankful!

Hiring Samantha and Plan Our Day for full wedding planning was one of the best decisions we made! Our work schedules did not allow a lot of time to plan a wedding in another state, and Samantha made the process so easy and stress-free. Samantha helped us figure out how to incorporate both of our cultural traditions into our wedding seamlessly and helped us hone in on our design vision for the day. On our wedding day, the power went out at our venue an hour before our ceremony and didn’t come back on! Samantha worked with our vendors to compress our timeline to include many key moments before we had to leave the venue at about 8pm: cocktail hour, full dinner service (by candlelight!), first dance/parent dances, our outfit change, toasts, and cake cutting! She also worked to find a bar with space for a large after party so that we did not have to cut our night short, even if things looked significantly different than we had imagined. Without her there is no way we would have been able to readjust our timeline and pivot to having an after party so quickly. Her professional management of the situation kept our stress levels as minimal as possible. Thanks to her, we can truly say that despite the challenges we can look back on our wedding as a beautiful day and fun memory instead of a total disaster. If you need a wedding planner, there is no better choice than Samantha!

Trust me and book them!

If you need a wedding coordinator…you have found her!! Samantha is absolutely amazing. I interviewed so many different coordinators. As soon as I finished my meeting with Samantha, I knew I wanted to work with her. She was the only one that I felt was genuinely interested in helping me and what I wanted on our day. When it came to planning the wedding, she was always quick to answer all my questions (there were many), gave me plenty options of vendors, and talked through everything with us. The program she uses helped organize everything from budget to addresses to designing ideas to vendors to schedules and more. As we got closer to the wedding she was so helpful with talking to vendors. She took away so much stress. Then on the wedding weekend, everything went so smoothly because of Samantha and her team. Every vendor knew exactly what to do. Everything was organized and set up perfectly. If I needed anything, she was right there. I seriously can’t say enough good things about plan our day!!

Fantastic! Absolutely hire!

Samantha is amazing! I am the kind of person who has planned their wedding since they were three, and did not think I needed/wanted a wedding planner. Due to the size and living half way around the world, I was convinced to do a 'final touches' package by my mom. Plan Our Day is the only company I found that had a planning session upon hiring, and was willing to answer questions via email throughout the whole year. Once we got 12 weeks away, Samantha stepped in and started handling a lot of the logistics/coordination/correspondence with vendors. She even came to extra meetings with our church, gracefully ran our rehearsal, and made the day of as seamless as could be. She is down to earth, has an assured, calm presence, and the exact person you want to guide your day. I am so grateful to her and her assistant, for her helpfulness throughout the whole process, going above and beyond our package, creating last minute add ons, updating the place settings through the morning of (Thanks Omicron), and her expertise in every detail of this whole process. We wouldn't have had this success without you!!

Why stress on your wedding day?

Many brides have told me wedding planners can be godsends. To be honest, I cannot speak on the quality of the wedding planning service by Plan Our Day as I did not elect to have this for my wedding. We wanted a crew to coordinate the wedding day itself, so that we did not have to. And by golly, I am so glad we did! Things happened when they should and the best kind of the service is the kind you don't see and it just happens!

Wedding planning is not for the faint of heart. It seems like a million moving pieces in this modern age. With COVID and the pandemic, this has been challenged even further. I have planned and planned this darn thing since 2018.

We met with Samantha way back when to go over our big picture ideas regarding the wedding and bullet points we deemed important to us. She set us up with with a wedding planning software (which was amazing!) and we coordinated through this website to make our way through the planning process. She went with us to the wedding venue and even participated in our casual rehearsal. You get more than what you pay for for the wedding coordination package with this crew! She is there to make your wedding vision come to life. Communicate communicate communicate!! She has a calming presence and truly helped smooth out all the nerves and anxiety throughout our chaotic but amazing day.

Our wedding day was everything I dreamed of and more, and Samantha and her team are a large part of it.

Best thing I did for my wedding!

Samantha was absolutely amazing! Hiring a wedding planner for our big day was the very first thing we did, and I'm so glad we did it! She helped walk us through every step of the process, and was always there when we needed her! Her advice and planning made everything so easy, and I can't imagine having planned this wedding without her! On our wedding day, she made sure everything went perfectly, and we had so many compliments from our guests that because everything was so put together and going so smoothly, it was the best wedding they'd ever been to! She was familiar with all our vendors already (having helped us make our decisions on them), and worked with them flawlessly to make our day seamless! Hiring Plan Our Day Houston was the best thing I could have done for my wedding, I'd highly recommend it!!

Best. Planning. Ever.

I worked with THE QUEEN OF PLANNING, Natalie. Y'all she is a DREAM! There was literally no task left undone. Natalie made sure to keep in constant contact with me and all of my vendors. We planned everything down to the smallest detail like a breeze. She was always incredibly professional, very attentive and super sweet in the process. I couldn't imagine my big day without her. Any bride would be so blessed to have Natalie as their planner. THANK YOU, NATALIE! We love you!

Every bride needs Plan Our Day!

Selecting Samantha and her team at Plan Our Day was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning! Though we chose her month-of coordination package, she truly went above and beyond throughout the entire planning process (we had nearly an 18 month engagement) and was extremely helpful with vendor recommendations, tips about the process along the way and pointing out so many little details that weren't even on our radar. She was very responsive throughout our entire time working together as well, which I really appreciated! In the last month and weeks leading up to the wedding, Samantha seamlessly took over all communication with our other vendors to ensure everyone was in the right place at the right time on our wedding day. Everything went perfectly that day, all thanks to Samantha and her amazing assistant Elizabeth - my entire family and bridal party remarked several times how attentive, helpful and professional they were. I would absolutely recommend other brides select Samantha and Plan Our Day to ensure their wedding goes off without a hitch. Thank you so much, Samantha!

From the moment we chose Samantha to plan our wedding the stress was instantly relieved. We did the full planning package and I 100% recommend it. She took care of everything!! She went to every vendor meeting with us and even went to some with just my parents when I wasn’t able to go. I was in school and working while planning my wedding and she was so flexible when it came to setting up phone calls in the evenings and was so easy to get in touch with when I had a question or started to stress about things. She not only calmed me down but also took on whatever task I was stressing about. She really feels like a friend throughout this process (I will genuinely miss talking to her so frequently! lol). When it came to the day of, everything was perfect and exactly how I had imagined. If something went wrong I still have no idea and I am so glad that I didn’t have to worry about it! We were at three different locations on the day of the wedding for getting ready, the ceremony and the reception due to getting married at historical sites and Samantha handled the timeline and plan for the day of and it worked out perfectly. She even kept us on track during the reception! She completely set up the reception site too!! I didn’t even see it until our entrance into the reception and it was beautiful! I loved being able to completely relax and trust her on the day of. I was able to focus on hanging out with my girls and taking in all of the small moments instead of focusing on the details of the day. Samantha was the best decision we made throughout the entire wedding process and she will forever be a part of our wedding memories!!
