I can’t imagine my wedding day without Marian as my day of coordinator. She was helpful with vendor suggestions and questions and keeping us moving through the planning process. And on the wedding day she was one step ahead of everything through the entire day and night. If things went wrong, I didn’t know because she was working hard behind the scenes. She also made the day fun and light, adding humor to the taking photos in the rain, and stains on dresses. We could not ask for more from Marian, I would regret booking with anyone else for my wedding.

Porch & Pearls is a wedding life saver!!! I planned a lot of our wedding myself until it was time to decide on certain vendors. I knew nothing about flowers and really needed advice. I was also told multiple times to have a day of wedding coordinator because a bride should not be directing vendors day of while getting her hair done. That's when I did a search on The Knot and found Marian, a bride's fairy godmother. She discusses her role and everything she will do for your day on the first phone call. She has a multi page spreadsheet to keep everyone organized. She is available by phone and email at any time of day when your family starts to drive you crazy or your mind starts to wander in the middle of the night. Our wedding was at 11am on a Sunday so she was at the hotel 7am ready to go. She made sure to check on our family members that needed extra attention during the day. Our day went so smoothly I did not even realize Marian was there running the show! Thank you Porch & Pearls for taking over and letting me enjoy my day!

Marian is the best and I wholeheartedly recommend hiring her! We had an absolute blast on our wedding day, and so did our guests. Having Marian there completely gave us peace of mind that everything would go exactly as it should - and it did! She is great to work with, easy to talk to and gives very good recommendations for which vendors are the best to hire.
