    Glad we hired Marta!

    I'm very glad we hired Marta. When we had a crisis with our alcohol delivery a couple days before the wedding, Marta took care of the situation and called me to tell me about it after she had already resolved it. She went and picked up our alcohol herself instead of having us worry about how we would get it to the venue on the day of the wedding. She was also on time and professional for every meeting. We even borrowed some of her decor so we didn't have to buy everything ourselves. She set the decor up for us as well, and with a 4 hour event time, I was so glad we didn't have to worry about setup or breakdown. Our wedding was set up beautifully!

    Bridal Shower

    I was planning my daughters bridal shower from 1,400 miles away from where the shower was to take held From the onset Marta was amazing, very professional and extremely organized. The venue was decorated beautifully when only given visions from the maid of honor. My goal was to have lasting memories and we certainly accessed that. My daughter was so surprised and loved it! We can not thank Marta enough!

    Experienced & amazing!!!

    If you are hoping to find a way to make your wedding be seamlessly perfect - then Marta and her team is what you need! She is amazing! She knows all the questions to ask and shares a wedding checklist with you to help you plan all the details you didn't even know you needed to. As wedding day drew near I honestly wasn't stressed out much at all because I knew Marta had a handle on everything and our wedding couldn't have been more perfect. She is truly spectacular and so friendly! 10/10 recommend!

    Marta is every bride's dream come true, a real fairy godmother! She completely took all the stress away from me so that my parents, husband, and I were able to completely enjoy the day! At the end of the reception, my brother-in-law had misplaced my father's keys and Marta was able to get her assistant to take my Dad back to his hotel room to grab his spare key. I also had some issues the week of our wedding with some of the vendors. All I did was write her a quick email and she called me immediately and had it all worked out within hours. I am so happy I chose her and even happier that she was available for my wedding day!

    AMAZING wedding planner

    Marta is absolutely amazing!! Without her, I don’t know how I would of handled everything... especially the day of! She made sure to keep in touch throughout the entire time up to our wedding date on May 7, 2021. Because of her, I had NO stress as a bride on my wedding day. She took care of everything and I can’t thank her enough. ❤️❤️

    Yes yes yes recommend!

    we got married in August during the pandemic and Marta was there with us through it all! We were very stressed on if we would even have a wedding we even stopped planning for a while! But once we got the okay from our venue Marta was ready and helped us get everything together for the day of! She helped us with every detail and was there for our meetings with our caterer to help us decided on things. Because of her everything went smooth the day of and we had a perfect day and plenty of time for dancing!

    Thank you so much Stacie. I am so happy that you were pleased with everything. I am always there for my couples and their families to make the Best Day Ever!

    All you will ever need

    Marta is going to be the best resource you could have for your wedding. Not only does she provide you with tons of information about how to find vendors, address your invites, a timeline for prep, she also has multiple storage sheds filled with decor that is included in her price! Her daughter Kara was the main day of coordinator for my wedding & she was amazing to work with. Marta & Kara had my day all set up and running smoothly by the time that I arrived, ready to walk down the aisle. Due to the pandemic, we ended up canceling at our venue and opted to do a backyard wedding instead, but that made Marta & her team just that much more important. My day would have been WAY more stressful & less fun if I did not have Martas' crew to help it run smoothly. Highly recommend them!

    Affairs Extraordinaire by Marta's reply:

    Liz: Thank you so very much. It was such a pleasure to work with you. Wishing you all the happiness as you through life together.

    Marta is wonderful!

    Marta is absolutely fantastic! She’s so friendly and so easy to talk to. You can tell that she’s been doing this for a long time, as she knows exactly what to do. Because of COVID, we had to postpone our big celebration, but still wanted to have a small intimate ceremony on our original date. She offered to help out with our small ceremony as well, bringing an arbor with greenery and working out the schedule of events. For both events, I gave her my vision and she ran with it: making sure everything fell into place as I wanted. I would recommend Marta to anyone who wants a perfect wedding!

    Affairs Extraordinaire by Marta's reply:

    Thank you so very much Kara. You were wonderful to work with and your wedding was fantastic. Many thanks and keep in touch.
    Hugs, Marta and Kara (my lead planner)

    Day of coordinator

    Marta was an essential part to our wedding, From day one she was extremely helpful and went above and beyond. In addition to her coordination, she offers her own inventory of decor to her brides which is HUGE and the savings add up not having to buy your own decor. She was especially helpful when we postponed our wedding from COVID by reaching out to our other vendors and coordinating our new date. The wedding itself went smoothly thanks to her. She set up, cleaned up, and made sure we stayed on time and everyone was where they needed to be. We couldn’t have had the perfect day we did without Marta!

    Hire Marta!

    Marta is amazing. I was the first of my friends to get married and had been to one wedding in my life. She walked us through everything and went absolutely above and beyond to take care of us. She put us at ease and her work is worth every penny. I will be recommending her to everyone I know.

    All You Need and More

    Marta was wonderful from pre wedding planning to the day of. Marta was supportive and helped plan every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for more. Marta and her assistant were absolutely amazing the day of. From helping to set up at the venue, letting us borrow materials for the wedding, and every task in between they were there. We definitely recommend Marta and her team!

    Affairs Extraordinaire by Marta's reply:

    Thank you both so very much for such a beautiful review. Your wedding day was amazing. It was such a pleasure to be such a small part of your Wedding Day. Much happiness for a lifetime of happiness.

    Marta is unbelievable

    When we first got engaged we knew that a wedding planner was a must! We heard about Marta through one of my mother's coworkers. Marta is the nicest person you will ever meet! She was quick to answer any questions I had about planning! She also has a list of vendors which is incredibly helpful in finding vendors for your wedding day. She also has so many decorations to choose from, which is great so you don't have to buy wedding decorations that you may not use again. On our wedding day, I did not have to worry about a thing! Marta handled every single detail to make sure our day went as planned. We even had an issue with our favors, Marta handled the issue and made sure I did not have to stress about it. I CANNOT recommend Marta enough! She made our wedding day stress free and AMAZING. Thank you so much Marta!

    Marta makes it look so easy!

    Marta is amazing. She is professional, quick to respond, easily adaptable to changes, and makes it so easy to not worry. Everyone told me on the wedding day that I seemed so calm and I have to say that Marta was so helpful with this. Marta is on top of everything and if you haven't thought of something, she's got you covered, or if you make a last minute change or there is any confusion, she rolls with everything so easily. Marta was there for me way before my wedding day even arrived and I felt so secure in her abilities and her organization and dedication. I would recommend (and have) Marta for ANY party planning needs and am so glad I chose her as a day of coordinator for my wedding. She does way more than the day of and it's totally worth all the praise she gets, I literally had no complaints! THANK YOU MARTA!

    Best decision we made.

    Hiring Marta was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. Marta came highly recommended and when we met her, we found out why. She pays attention to every detail of/leading up to your day, and works incredibly hard to make sure everything goes according to plan. She truly listens to what you want and makes it happen. She made sure that everyone involved in the wedding can enjoy the day and not have to stress. I couldn’t have anything better to say!

    Marta is the absolute best!

    Marta is by far the best wedding planner out there! We met with a few other planners after meeting Marta, but we knew the second that we met her that she was by far the best. There was never a moment during our planning that we were worried about anything. During each meeting with Marta, she always made us feel that everything was under control. Every single one of our vendors also commented on how organized she was. And she was always an email/text/call away.
    I am a total type-A person, and I never for a moment felt that anything could have been better organized. Any time that we brought up an idea, Marta said that she had it covered. When we were unsure of which caterer to choose, Marta gave us suggestions based on who she had worked with, which led us to the best experience.
    When we had rain in the forecast for our wedding day, I was not a bit concerned because I knew that Marta and her team would have a plan. Which they did, and everything went so smoothly.
    If you are looking for someone to make your wedding planning and wedding day stress-free than look no further. Marta and her team are the best choice out there.

    Affairs Extraordinaire by Marta's reply:

    Allison, What amazing and kind words you have given to me. I enjoyed working with both of you so very much. I work very hard with my couples to assure them The Best Day Ever. Thank you so very much. Marta

    Fantastic Day of Coordinator!

    We were beyond happy that our officiant recommended Marta as our day of coordinator. She was super responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process and absolutely amazing on the day of the wedding. She not only met with us at her house, but also let us borrow some items for the wedding ceremony and reception. She also coordinated the whole wedding with all the vendors and ensured that everything went smoothly. Both Marta and her team helped one of the bridesmaid with a last minute hem and made sure that all wedding cards were accounted for and brought them to our suite. I highly recommend Affairs Extraordinaire by Marta, you will not be disappointed!

    Affairs Extraordinaire by Marta's reply:

    Lisa, it was a pleasure to work with you. It was such a beautiful wedding and all of your guests were amazing. Wishing you and Will all the best for a lifetime of happiness. Thank you, Marta
