Joyce is an amazing planner. She worked with us and in our budget to help create the wedding of our dreams. She was great with my family and encouraged us to really put ourselves first, which meant a lot. She thought of all the small details to make sure nothing was left out. Joyce took care of setting up the venue so I didn't have to stress or run around the morning of. I do not think our wedding would have been as perfect without her help!

I recently worked with Joyce for my wedding day, and she was so incredibly helpful. Any issue that I ran into, she would go above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, and that I was not worried about a thing on my big day. Joyce really knows what she's doing and always had the best suggestions. She really is a life saver.

She was absolutely incredible. We found her at the last minute. Had no idea how many tiny details we would need help with- she took care of everything. I was not stressed, she answered every email and text message immediately. Every quirky family situation, every single issue or hiccup was responded to with a "no problem" from her. She was so sweet and easy to work with and helped us take care of literally everything. She was also super adorable. To all my future brides- you are crazy to not have a planner or a coordinator, and I am highly organized and creative and OCD. I needed Joyce so bad and she was just so perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I've known and worked with Joyce for years and can definitely say that she takes care of her brides. She will make sure that your day is the happiest and will take care of all the details so that all you have to do is enjoy the day. A wedding coordinator is so worth the cost because there are so many distractions that can pull you away from enjoying your big day, from various wedding vendor needs/requirements/scheduling to a dress or tux that needs a quick mending to getting everyone down the aisle correctly, there are a lot of behind the scene details that a wedding coordinator takes care of. Call Joyce, after the wedding, you'll be glad you did!
