Superior service

Wow!

Maddison began with a smile and a “can do” spirit. She created an environment of order and trust. We had our magical wedding with no issues because of her.

Day-of-Coordination

I worked primarily with Cloie at the Planning for our day-of-coordination services, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful she was!! We held our ceremony at the Ridge, and our reception elsewhere, but the Planning was willing and able to accommodate without any issue. On the day of our wedding, despite a rain shower, and a few other hiccups, Cloie kept everything running smoothly & efficiently. She was kind, understanding, and was always available to chat or respond to my emails leading up to that day. Cloie took the time to understand my vision, listen to all of my (probably too detailed) requests, and make it happen!! She was calm, cool, and collected as she worked, and kept us all confident that it would turn out beautifully, and it did! She handled all the details, and I felt like I was able to be present and enjoy my wedding rather than worrying about the little things. Thank You, Cloie!!

Absolutely Amazing!

Nicole Ellington was the planner for our wedding and she absolutely knocked it out of the park! She was amazing throughout the entire process. Very communicative, detailed, and responsive with us. I know our big day would not have been the complete perfection it was without all of Nicole's hard work!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
