10/10 Recommend!

Go with The Planning Bee! Leah was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout my entire 1.5 year engagement! She made sure each detail was thought through and well organized. Our monthly meetings helped keep me on track as we checked off each to-do. She sat in on my calls with each vendor while taking notes, and helped talk me through my vision and budget while I made my decisions. She was always available for a call or text with any of my one-off questions or concerns.

The Details (just to name a few!)
-I sent Leah an inspo pic of napkin bows, and the next day she had answers from the venue on when she could pick up our napkins so she could hand fold each one!
-I was also able to rent my gold flatware and chargers through The Planning Bee, which saved me $$ vs going through rental companies.
-She was extremely helpful in my custom invitation process. She attended an in person meeting with the vendor, proof read the wording, and helped seek out cost savings where we could. She drove around to numerous post offices to find the right, non gaudy, non machinable (who knew that was a thing), postage to ensure my acrylic invitation dreams could come to life.

The Day Of:
Leah & Rachel kept everyone and everything on track the day of my wedding, which really allowed me to enjoy my day. We got hit with rain in the middle of our bridal party photos, but with one phone call, Leah had us on arriving at our venue earlier than planned so we could finish our photos there. She made sure each of my requests were executed throughout the day, while staying calm and helping me feel at ease.

I loved my experience with The Planning Bee, and would absolutely choose them again!

Above and Beyond

We had the pleasure of working with Karima for our wedding day. She was nothing short of amazing, professional and accommodating during the planning process and day of. She was so organized and kept us on track so that the wedding day ran as smooth as possible. Having the Planning Bees there to help gave me such a peace of mind knowing things were taken care of and I could just enjoy my special day. I would recommend their services to anyone getting married, you will not regret it!
