Our best wedding planning decision!

Dana was beyond helpful at every step. We were contracted for day-of Coordination but she was very available for any questions the whole time leading up to the wedding, and helped us through the details that we were unsure about. She made the day go so smoothly and contacted all of the vendors ahead of time. The cost was also super reasonable, especially for how instrumental she was in the day going well. It was great to have someone not only keep us on track but do it with a smile! Highly recommend!

In great hands

Dana was so attentive, thoughtful, thorough, and well experienced in her day-of coordinator services. She didn’t pressure us into any one direction or style, instead listened and helped us create the wedding day we dreamed of. Dana was THE crucial point of our wedding day and we couldn’t have done it without her!

The absolute best coordinator!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Dana. Our wedding day truly wouldn’t have been the amazing day it was without her. From assisting us with set up the day before and day of, to her sweet suggestions pre wedding weekend - she went above and beyond for us and we were so lucky to have snagged her!! Dana’s assistant was also so sweet and went above the call of duty by taking care of our puppies after the ceremony!!

Best decision EVER!

Dana was one of the BEST additions to our wedding day! If you think you don’t need to have a wedding coordinator, let me just say you ABSOLUTELY do! After our first phone call with Dana, I knew she would be the right person to help us organize our day. All of the small details and vision were handled flawlessly—from the ceremony timing to the reception set up. We were able to enjoy our day so much more because of Dana’s help. So thankful for being able to work with her! ❤️

Dana took all the stress away and helped us create our dream day!

Dana absolutely saved our day! She was the perfect fit to help us pull off our ultimate DIY wedding. She jumped right in and was on board with my wild, ambitious ideas and found ways to make everything run smoothly. From our first phone call, Dana made an anxious bride feel at ease. She helped so much with communicating with vendors, venue walkthroughs, and creating the perfect timeline. She went over and above with helping to coordinate the details and logistics of our day, from arranging the decor to cutting the cake and everything in between. Anything unexpected that came up, the day of, she quickly found solutions. We didn't even know about the few things that went awry until after the wedding, she took care of EVERYTHING behind the scenes without us having to worry. We couldn't have asked for a more organized, stress-free day all thanks to Dana. She is the sweetest person and made communication so easy. Whatever stage you are in in the planning process, hire Dana immediately! She will help take your event from good to great.

Wedding Day of Coordinator- Dana Swab

Dana was our Day of Coordinator for our wedding and she was absolutely AMAZING! She was available for any questions and very responsive by text/email. She gave us many suggestions whenever we needed help with planning (which was very helpful since we were planning from the other side of the US). The day of the wedding I was not stressed at all because I knew Dana had it all under control, it was only after the wedding that I found out a few issues that she handled and I never knew about on the day of the wedding. She ensured that the wedding day and week were PERFECT and I highly recommend hiring her for your wedding or any party because she was amazing, so sweet and very easy to work with and communicate with!

Wedding Planner Extraordinaire

Selecting Dana Swab, as our wedding planner was the best decision we made. As mother of the bride, we were organizing a destination wedding
in PA. which Dana seamlessly worked with me, while in NY..
Dana, was always responsive to emails, worked with all vendors and a calm in nature, which is exactly what you need. Four months before the wedding, the original caterer I wanted became available.. we decided to cancel the current caterer and hire our favorite.. Dana assured me that we had time .. it went flawlessly !
Dana is involved in every step of the way, without being overbearing! We had the most beautiful wedding for our daughter & son in law.
Look no more and hire Dana Swab Wedding Planner Extraordinaire

1000% worth booking Dana if you want a stress free smooth day!

Dana helped make our day stress free and we couldn't have asked for a better planned, stress-free day, because of her. From start to finish, everything was well planned ahead of time so that our day ran as smooth as possible. Her communication with each vendor during the weeks leading up to our ceremony, and on the day of our ceremony helped make our day run so smoothly. Her timeline and attention to detail for our day went exactly as planned. She was there from start to finish on our day as well as the rehearsal and I truly believe if it was not for her our day would have not gone as smoothly as it did. So, if you are on the fence on booking a wedding planner, I 1000% recommend Dana and I can confidently say she is 1000% worth it!!

Best decision

I was looking for a wedding planner to help with everything so my mom and I could enjoy the day. Dana was the best decision I could have made. Leading up to the wedding day, Dana was extremely helpful and always made herself available. During setup Dana helped with everything and made sure we thought of all the little details. On the day of the wedding, Dana played a vital role in making sure everything was prepared and everything behind the scenes were running smoothly. I highly recommend Dana! So thankful we had her!
