After interviewing multiple wedding planners, we found Denise with What A Day Weddings and what a difference it made with our wedding planning!

From the very beginning, Denise was proactive in assessing where we were in the planning process and what still needed to be done. She made sure to understand our goals and vision for our wedding day and helped to brainstorm very creative and personalized ideas to make our day special. She reviews all vendor contracts and even sets up a calendar with reminders for all of the vendor payment dates so you won't miss one by accident.

Our wedding day could not have gone any smoother. Denise provided a timeline for the entire day and distributed it to the wedding party and all the vendors ahead of time. While we were getting ready Denise was there every step of the way, making sure everyone was OK and that our dresses were steamed and perfect.

Months later, family and friends are *still* raving about how perfect and seamless the day went. Even the vendors that we contracted for our wedding all commented on Denise's level of detail, organization and overall kind and helpful nature. If you want your day to go smoothly, your vendors to be happy and your wedding to be picture perfect go with What A Day Weddings!

First of all if you don't think you need a wedding coordinator, think again! And then hire Denise! I was totally stressing about how I would manage everything on the day of the wedding and still enjoy myself. Luckily I found Denise and having her as the Day of Coordinator was one of the best decisions I made for my daughter's wedding. First of all, she is soooo much more than the "Day of Coordinator". We met with her multiple times and she was always available immediately by email. She took care of so many details including contacting the vendors and making sure all times, etc were correct. She served as a sounding board and was always there for me when I got stressed. She had multiple beautiful items of her own that she let use for free which saved us money. She had a complete checklist and she took care of things that we would have completely forgotten. She was at the rehearsal the night before and her advice insured things went smoothly the day of the wedding. The day of the wedding Denise was there from start to finish, from setting everything up to perfection to helping us load gifts into the car at the end of the night. Because of her I was truly able to enjoy every moment of the day--including spending the morning while the girls got ready instead of having to manage the venue and decorations. I cannot thank her enough for everything she did. She was always so sweet and patient and she could not have cared any more about my daughter's wedding than if it was her own. Whether you are looking for someone to plan your entire wedding to a Day of Coordinator (which trust me, Denise went over and above) PLEASE give this fantastic lady a call. It will be the best decision you can make for your wedding!

I don't have the words to describe Denise! Our wedding would have been nothing without her. A majority of our planning happened out-of-state, and it would have been so much more stressful if it weren't for Denise's prompt and thorough communication. She answered every email within minutes...even late into the night. She communicated exclusively with our vendors, and was always transparent with us regarding all of her communications with everyone. In addition, she tirelessly researched and vetted vendors in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area for us.
We came to Phoenix several times during our planning process, and every time, Denise had a gift bag and thoughtful card waiting for us at our hotel. She would plan out our visits with well-organized itineraries of vendor meetings. We always commented that we felt like we were wedding planning with our moms. She is so nurturing and loving. She cared about us as a couple, not just as clients. And she cared so much about making our day perfect for us! She is so detail-oriented...she literally thinks of everything! Our wedding day was perfect because of all of the countless hours of planning she had done. Not to mention, she had several other weddings in the weeks prior to ours. But she made us feel like we were her only couple.
You won't regret hiring Denise as your wedding planner! She gives you her devoted attention to getting to know you, as well as to planning the wedding of your dreams. Her Instagram feed speaks to who she is as a person as it is sprinkled with "Happy Anniversary" posts to couples that she has worked with in the past. She is a fabulous wedding planner, and an even more phenomenal person!
