Nancy and Stacey get an A+. Our wedding at the Museum of Fine Arts was absolutely perfect thanks to their help. Even months leading up the wedding Nancy was so helpful. She recommended the best vendors. It was so fun working with them both. Thanks for helping us plan the wedding of our dreams!
Love, Lindsay and Brian Deignan

Before my first meeting with Nancy Cotto, I was undecided on a venue. The final decision date was looming and I was incredibly stressed about this decision. After meeting with Nancy I felt completely at ease and relaxed. I knew after 1 meeting that Nancy would be my saving grace and I was right. She took many crying and panicked calls from me only to calm me down, reassure me and help with problems that were totally outside of the scope of a wedding coordinator or catering sales manager. She gave me advice on how to deal with opinionated family members and even ran some interference herself, prior to the wedding and on the day of.
She was amazing when it came to recommendation for everything from the florist to linen colors. This made a lot of the process much easier and took away a lot of the stress during the planning process.
On the day of the wedding Nancy had another Event Manager there as well, Staci. She was just as amazing as Nancy. She was attentive, supportive and worked with the DJ to help keep the night on track.
If you watch the TV show “Scandal” or know who Olivia Pope is than you can appreciate this comparison: Nancy Cotto was my Olivia Pope. She was my saving grace during the wedding planning and especially on that day. Any little thing that may have been a problem, she had a solution for. She went above and beyond to make sure that this day was special to me but also my husband. I can honestly say that our wedding would not have been what it was if it wasn't for Nancy and her support, professionalism and love for her job. She truly loves what she does and you can see that in how she interacts with her brides.

Nancy was very prompt at replying to all emails and also giving us ideas for vendors that she knew. Our favorite vendor by far was the DJ that she told us about!! The day of the wedding I was not quite as pleased. I was greeted with an unfriendly tone and was also snapped at when I explained that the staff were setting some things up incorrectly. I also felt that she argued with my photographers in an unprofessional manner about where our first look was to take place therefore making things quite hectic and uncomfortable. Unfortunately we had to get married inside because it was raining and this presented a problem when trying to make the room look nice despite the stage in the background. I felt that this situation was handled unprofessionally by Nancy due to her demeanor and expressiveness both on the phone and in the Marley Room. Overall I think that Nancy is a great representative for the museum and the catering company but she does not possess the calming and stress free personality that a wedding planner needs to have to keep the wedding day running smoothly.
