These wives had our backs.

Justina and Noelle are not just professional, organized, and prepared; they are the kinds of people you want surrounding you on your wedding day. They kept us on track in the months leading up to the wedding with a structured plan for selecting vendors, attire, decor, and more. They were even able to advise our officiant--a personal friend who had no prior experience conducting a wedding--and kept the ceremony on track so we could enjoy the day without stress. As numerous attendees asked us if we were nervous leading up to the ceremony, Noelle once quipped, "I'm not." It's that kind of lighthearted confidence that assures you that you're in good hands--these ladies have handled every scenario before, and they are pros.

Though they're all business, they are also incredibly creative and fun to have on your team. When we presented them with over a thousand (!) origami cranes to do with as they saw fit, they tastefully integrated them with a stunning reception space, and even thought to stage a photo shoot in which we were rained down upon by paper cranes. They were able to make thoughtful artistic choices when asked, but eager to execute on detailed directions when we felt compelled to micromanage (we never once had to micromanage, though we are control freaks).

Hire Weddings by Wives if you want to feel like you're being guided through the complicated wedding process by friends who you can trust implicitly, who are experienced and highly qualified, and who are willing to go the extra mile to ensure that your big day meets and exceeds your dreams.

Amazing and Organized

My wedding was on May 3 and Weddings by Wives did a great job. They were there for every step leading up to the wedding until the wedding was over. The day of my wedding ran smooth with the help of Wedding by Wives esp since the weather was iffy that day and we wanted an outside wedding. Justina and Noelle made sure that everything was set up correctly and guests knew where to go. During the reception my husband stepped on my dress even though it was already bustled and he ripped the bustle. Justina and Noelle were sewing my bustle back together and saving my dress before the dancing began. My husband and I highly recommend Weddings by Wives for anyone needing a coordinator for their upcoming wedding.
