Roz went above and beyond as a wedding coordinator! She was definitely my go to person for the last several weeks leading up to the wedding. So many last minute texts and calls as things came up. She tried to make it as stress free for us as possible! For the day of the wedding I couldn’t thank Roz and Mama E and team enough! One of our bartenders ended up leaving early and one of her staff members was able to jump in and help fill in! We also ran out of some utensils and cups and they were able to run to the store to purchase some for us as well. I can honestly say, that we enjoyed every bit of our wedding without any worries because when anything came up they handled it! So, if you want to actually enjoy your big day and not worry about the little details on the day of I would definitely recommend hiring Roz. It was definitely nice when people would ask me where things went or where something was i could simply say, “Go ask Roz”. I would recommend them 100 times over!

My husband and I hired MPWA to do our wedding planning and day-of coordination. We also did an Administrative add-on to have them do the majority of our outreach and scheduling and handle some of the administrative tasks during the initial stages of interviewing vendors and collecting quotes. We had such an amazing time working with Ernestine that we also hired her to coordinate our wedding brunch for the day-after the wedding!

Ernestine aka Mama E was hands down - INCREDIBLE. We met with several planners and after we met with her we knew we had to book her - she immediately put us at ease. She will call you out and push back when she needs to, and she'll be direct and honest with you about her opinions and the options you have. She was paramount in making the day go so smoothly - and she kept me sane during the absolute nightmare that is wedding planning during Covid. She handled so many awkward conversations with vendors, helped to divulge feedback, and took care of basically all of our vendor research, outreach, estimate collections, etc.

Wedding planning was stressful enough as it is WITH a wedding planner, I literally cannot imagine going through this without Mama E. If you are wondering whether or not it's worth the added expense to hire a wedding planner let me promise you - yes, yes it is.

Ernestine was incredibly responsive, there was never a topic too big or too small to cover with her, and she was always honest about her opinion. She really puts so much time, energy, and effort into making the day go smoothly. She made sure I knew exactly what I needed to do to prepare for the day of, what I needed to bring, and walked us through what to expect. She handled all of my vendors, the timeline, and payouts and made sure the day ran smoothly; she set up all the decor, and had an entire inventory to choose from. I am the ultimate bridal nightmare when it comes to colors, decor, etc. because I work in the design field so I'm incredibly picky and when I tell you she has the patience of a saint, it is no joke because I am obnoxious about details. She really helped to balance me out and remind me when I needed to relax on certain details, stay realistic about my expectations depending on my budget for certain areas of the wedding, and helped to pull me out of the weeds to see the big picture when I would get anxious or overthink the details.

Even with all of the preparation, phone calls, emails, zoom meetings, etc. beforehand, the day-of is really where Ernestine shines. She's quick on her feet, takes charge of a group, and keeps everyone organized and moving. If there were ever any hitches or issues during the day-of I was completely none the wiser. She handled everything smoothly, confidently, and with so much ease. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything Mama E! I cannot say enough great things. We love and appreciate you!

MPWA is AMAZING in every sense of the word. Ernestine was a life saver throughout the entire wedding process. She helped us every step of the way, in literally every aspect of our planning. Her communication was fantastic, and she always responded so quickly. I honestly don't know how we could have planned our wedding during normal times let alone in the craziness during 2020. She helped us plan the most perfect day during a PANDEMIC, y'all! Through contacting vendors, determining what we should do for plans A, B, and C, and just being there as a support during the whole process, Ernestine was just amazing. She and her team went above and beyond, and we are so, so incredibly grateful. We cannot recommend Ernestine and MPWA enough... If you are getting married, book them RIGHT AWAY. It will be the best decision you make, I promise!!!
