Excellent Wedding Day of Coordinator

We worked with Nikilett for our wedding and she was a dream to work with from the get go! We felt at ease with her and she was so detail oriented that we had very few questions after our initial meeting.

She got all our vendor information and contacted each vendor and stayed in touch with them, even on the day of the wedding when I missed a couple of emails :) We had a detailed timeline and contact/vendor list for the day of so that no one had to reach me with questions and they could go directly to Nikilett which allowed me to concentrate on being with my family and friends and focus on making memories instead of scrambling to figure out what was going on.

On the day of the wedding, she was right there with me and if she went anywhere, I could easily reach her by text and she’d appear out of nowhere with whatever we needed. She stayed with us all the way to the end of our event and made sure we were well taken care of. Nikilett even took pictures and videos for us so we could have some of our moments to look at before we got our professional photos and video, which was so thoughtful because we were able to relive those moments directly after our wedding! She took care of all the details and I didn’t have to worry about anything on what could have been a really chaotic and stressful day. I would highly recommend Nikilett to anyone who wants to keep their wedding day as stress free as possible and wants to have someone there to make the day as seamless as it can be. I have no complaints and am so glad I got a chance to work with her!

Absolutely Amazing Experience

From the beginning these girls were absolutely amazing! Starting with an in person meeting going over every detail you can think of to bring all my ideas to life!! Nikilett's communication was above and beyond to ease my stress during the wedding planning phase. The day of was a breeze for me knowing Amanda & Darla had everything under control. They exceeded my expectations with their decor skills!! I would trust them over and over again in the future!! I wish I had some pictures but I didn't have my phone on my wedding day!! 100/100 recommend these girls!!!

Above and beyond

wedding coordinator is a must if you are in the throws of planning a wedding. Yours Truly did an amazing job! Checking the vendor contracts, providing planning ideas, and setting a detailed schedule for the big day.  As a mother of the bride I found Nkilett very helpful before and during the wedding. Don’t hesitate to hire a wedding coordinator from Nikilett’s team. Doing so will allow you to actually enjoy the wedding and reception!

Highly, Highly Recommend!

We are SOOO appreciative of everything that Nikilett and the Yours Truly team did to help make our wedding a success. From the moment we booked with Nikilett, the wedding planning load felt a lot lighter. There are so many things that she organized and did that I wouldn't have even thought to do, and she communicated it to all our vendors so well. She was administrative, organized, and was incredible attentive to our personal wants and needs.

My wedding hair had a major malfunction, and she rearranged the day so that I could walk in feeling confident and still execute first looks, pre-wedding photo/video, and everything else I wanted to do pre-wedding. It also did rain for a portion of my outdoor wedding, and Nikilett was communicative about the status of everything without burdening me with making any decisions. It was truly a blessing.

She also reassured me that what I was asking for wasn't too much. She made sure we ate, had drinks, and checked in on me throughout the night. She took pictures and sent them to us the next day... Just incredible! We feel so blessed that Nikilett was our wedding day coordinator!!

10th Wedding Anniversary

Having never had a wedding, it was incredibly important for my husband and me to celebrate our 10th anniversary in a way that felt truly special and memorable. Bringing Nikilett on board was one of the best decisions we made.

From the very beginning, she felt more like a friend than a planner—so warm, kind, and incredibly easy to talk to. She was always attentive, responsive, and genuinely cared about bringing our vision to life. It was clear from day one that she just knows her job and does it exceptionally well.

We planned a 3-day celebration, and thanks to Nikilett, every single day went off without a hitch. On the main day, she helped pull off a big request we had that made the celebration even more meaningful. The venue looked amazing, the vendors she brought in were top-notch, and she handled all of our last-minute requests with grace and efficiency.

What really stood out was how she listened—to every idea, every concern, every little detail—and turned our thoughts into reality. I honestly miss working with her and chatting with her!

We’re so grateful to have had her by our side for this milestone, and I’m already looking forward to the next event we can collaborate on. Thank you, Nikilett, for making our anniversary unforgettable!
We love you!

Nothing but the BEST!

From the moment we started planning our big day, Nikilett was on top of everything! With my busy work schedule, I was worried about managing all the small details, but she expertly took the reins and made the entire process feel effortless. Her attention to detail was truly remarkable; she listened intently to every single request I had and transformed my visions into reality. Nikilett is not just a fantastic planner; she is also such a personable and sweet individual. On the day of our wedding, she was there from morning till night, working tirelessly to ensure everything ran smoothly. I can’t express enough how grateful I am for her support on such an important day. We’ve received nonstop compliments from friends and family about how amazing our wedding was, and I truly believe it’s all thanks to Nikilett's hard work and dedication.She is a true gem in the world of wedding planning!

She's amazing!!

Nikilett started off as our original venue coordinator. Her amazing personality and characteristics is what really drew us into choosing our venue. We just knew she'd be amazing to work with and you can just see she had a true passion for what she does. Sad on our end, she ended up leaving the venue to start her own amazing journey. Luckily to find out we were coincidentally basically neighbors, we kept in touch and we decided to hire her for our decor set up. She went above and beyond, from me advice to suggestions to actually doing the decor, she's been nothing but amazing!!! I was so blessed to have her part of our day. I can tell anyone if you choose Nikilett, you will 100% not regret a single thing!

Wonderful experience, highly recommend!

We were a Covid wedding couple and were blessed to work with Nikilett for two weddings (a very small intimate wedding in 2020 and large summer 2021 wedding). The weddings were very different from each other, but both perfect thanks to the help of Nikilett. She was prompt with responses to all of my questions, professional, knowledgeable, and very detail oriented. I felt confident going into both weddings knowing that Nikilett had all details planned out. I highly recommend Nikilett to any and all future wedding couples!

Professional, kind, honest, & calm

Nikilett exuded calmness the day of our wedding. On top of making everything go as smoothly as she did, she also put out ransoms last-minute fires (like my veil the wouldn’t stay on!!) as if it was as simple as me asking for a glass of water. I also really appreciated how she never made me feel like she was trying to give me a “pitch” or over-sell me. She was very honest and straight-forward about pricing. She made planning, designing, and the day-of exceed my expectations. I would recommend her over and over again.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
