Professional, Fun, and Indispensable

We used Happy Hour Hostess's month-of coordination service for our wedding on 10/28/23 and I feel like it may have been one of the best decisions I've ever made, no hyperbole. The first time we spoke with Carrie it felt like a great fit and she talked through our vision with us and gave us a couple tips. We wanted to do most of the planning ourselves, but a major factor for us in booking HHH was the ability to hire Carrie for a few additional hours to come to our design meeting at the venue. She. Was. Amazing. From offering ideas for beautiful place settings to helping us set priorities and decide what was and wasn't "worth it", I genuinely don't know how we could have gotten through that meeting without her. And she took extensive notes that she sent to us afterwards and kept in her file so that when we reached the month of our wedding, HHH already had tons of information about what our tables should look like and what the layout of each room was. For month-of coordination we worked with Mallory, and I could go on forever about how fantastic she is. At our wedding, Mallory was accompanied by Annie and they were so fun to have around and just so in command of everything. There was no detail Mallory wasn't aware of and no question she couldn't answer. It was so nice to have someone we trusted and could say "just do whatever you think" or "we'll leave that up to you". She made sure that everything went incredibly smoothly and, from our perspective, the day was absolutely perfect. If anything went wrong we didn't know about it. And, again, she managed all this while being a fun presence and truly helping us celebrate. When we started planning I wasn't sure whether we would hire a coordinator or not, and now I can't imagine having our wedding without HHH and Mallory. The fact that we were able to host such a beautiful event relatively stress-free is a testament to Happy Hour Hostess and the wonderful work they do. I just can't recommend them enough.
