Nothing says “this wedding wouldn’t have been possible without Melissa” like realizing it’s been months since the wedding and I haven’t written this review! Melissa was the ONLY thing keeping us on track with wedding planning for the year plus that we worked together.
I truly mean it when I say that Melissa is the reason our wedding was as amazing and as memorable as it was. We had a great introductory call with her and picked the full planning package. She got us on a timeline, accompanied us on venue tours, helped us pick out all the best vendors, and asked great questions and shared valuable insight along the way. When we were indecisive she gave us her honest opinion and I’m so glad we trusted her. (When she tells you that draping the whole ballroom is going to be amazing, she is 100% right!)
My husband and I are both type A picky-picky and she was able to provide just enough vendor options based on our preferences for it to not feel overwhelming but also just what we envisioned.
Melissa understood our style and created a beautiful, cohesive event. She found us THE band of our lives and our friends and family still haven’t stopped telling us how much they loved our wedding. I honestly wouldn’t have believed the transformation she orchestrated to make our venue an absolute dream come true.
Melissa and her team handled dramatic week-before-the-wedding venue issues with ease and my husband and I had no idea of any wedding day hiccups because they literally handled *everything*!!!! I recommend Melissa with all my heart- she was always on top of it, full of incredible knowledge and experience, and just such a wonderful, kindhearted person which is exactly what you need in a wedding planner.

Melissa was so incredible! Our only regret was not getting a higher package so she could have helped us with more. The day of the wedding was completely flawless. She took all of our materials in the morning and set them up beautifully. We were amazed when we saw the reception and cocktail area.

Her assistant Kylie was so amazing too. I was a bit nervous for the day and having her around helped calm my nerves. She had a solution for any little thing we needed including adding a new whole to my shoes because they were too big.

10/10 recommend Melissa and her wonderful team!

Melissa and Sweet Blossom Weddings gave me the fairytale wedding of my dreams! I hired Sweet Blossom Weddings for partial planning services and it was the best decision I made during the wedding planning process. After an extensive and at times bizarre search for a wedding planner, I spoke to Melissa on the phone and immediately knew that I wanted to hire Sweet Blossom Weddings. She came across as calm yet confident, friendly but take charge, and those all proved to be true in the twelve-plus months that I worked with her.

Planning a wedding is such a daunting experience and I don’t know what I would’ve done without Melissa, who has tons of experience and connections, guiding me through the process. She took the time to get to know me and my fiancé, helped us set a budget, created a gorgeous design board, connected us with amazing vendors, combed through our event orders, and generally just made sure we made the right decisions at the right times. One highlight was when she caught that I accidentally ordered beige linens and napkins when I meant to order light blue napkins. (I know that sounds minor but I didn’t spend over a year planning a wedding to have beige on beige in my table scape!) Sweet Blossom Weddings also provides you with access to aisle planner and have an extremely detailed checklist to help guide you through the planning process as well as helpful guides for tipping, vendor interviews, etc. Melissa was also always available throughout the planning process to answer random questions, join vendor calls, and would even suggest video check-ins or phone calls at various points in the planning process to catch up.

Melissa and her team were also all stars on our wedding day. Melissa ensured that everything was set up perfectly and that the day went without a hitch. My maid of honor said it best when she said, “I love Melissa. She’s a HBIC who wasn’t going to let anything bad happen on your wedding day.” The Sweet Blossom Weddings bridal and set-up assistants—Mae and Jess—were also godsends on the day of the event. I spent the most time with Mae as my bridal assistant, and she helped guide me through the day, gathering everything for my detail shots, connecting with transportation and the photographer, holding my train, and, together with Melissa and Jess, taking care of all set-up, logistics, and coordination to ensure that I got to be present with my friends and family and actually enjoy my wedding.

When people ask me about my wedding, I get to say without hesitations that “It was perfect.” And that’s all thanks to Melissa and Sweet Blossom Weddings!
