Do yourself a favor and hire Michelle as your wedding coordinator NOW!!! My husband and I got married last weekend, and both we and our guests are still raving about how perfect the day was - the timing, the decorations, the vendors, everything was absolutely beautiful and executed to perfection. This was all thanks to Michelle and the Bustle and Lace team! We hired Michelle as our wedding coordinator about 1.5 years before our wedding date, and we had helpful check-in meetings every few months to make sure we were on track in hiring vendors, pulling together our day-of schedule, planning for decor, etc, etc, etc. Michelle kept us on track throughout the planning process, and always had helpful templates and advice for every part of the process! Michelle is so responsive and has an answer backed by experience for every question that was asked. Our day was absolutely perfect, and it was all thanks for Michelle and her team working behind the scenes! -

I truly cannot say enough good things about Michelle and Bustle and Lace. Michelle was an absolute dream to work with. She’s so kind, calming, and wonderful. She was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond throughout the whole planning process. During the wedding itself, she was absolutely invaluable. When our DJ wasn’t playing our slideshow the way we wanted—Michelle handled it. When a guest didn’t get the meal she wanted—Michelle handled it (and the guest said she was so sweet about it.) When it was time to get drunk guests out the door at the end of the night—Michelle handled it perfectly. She was also so so helpful in keeping us on schedule during the wedding, helping us with last minute details the morning off, taking care of details with our vendors, and just being an all around great presence. I had high expectations going in based on the other reviews I saw, and Michelle surpassed all of them. Can’t recommend her enough. -

My husband and I will forever be grateful for working with Michelle to plan our wedding -- from day one she was so organized, honest, and uplifting, and made it very evident to us that she was here to not only help us plan our day and keep us on track in terms of budget and planning timelines, but to truly get to know us and bring our vision for our wedding to life. She is incredibly talented and amazing at what she does, and brings such a calming and comforting presence to have with you by your side during the wedding day itself, and goes above and beyond to make sure your day goes as smoothly and as stress-free as possible so you get to have as much fun as your guests on your wedding day. My husband and I were honestly bummed when our wedding ended because it meant we wouldn't have our monthly check-in calls to vent about things or bounce creative ideas with her! From seating charts, to vendor-securement/communication, RSVPs and more, Michelle will guide you and collaborate with you every step of the way to ensure that your wedding is an authentic representation of you and your partner. She made us feel so special and so cared for. Easily the best decision we made during the whole wedding process was hiring Michelle for partial wedding planning! Don't hesitate to work with her -- you will be so thankful that you did! -

Just want to start this by saying Michelle is literally incredible! We hired her as a day of coordinator but we’re so thankful her services extend beyond just showing up the day of. She gave us so many excellent vendor recommendations that we used and was such a trustworthy calming presence throughout the lead up to the wedding day. She was exactly what we needed during our wedding weekend - organized, focused, friendly and helpful to our guests. She even made sure someone ran to grab me meds when I started to feel sick at the reception, which is so sweet! We love her and would recommend any couple reach out to her -

Working with Michelle was an absolutely incredible experience! We hired her as our 'day-of' coordinator but she went above and beyond in helping us plan so many aspects of the wedding. Our meetings with her were always so helpful and made me feel like I knew what I should be doing next to stay on track. In all honesty, it all came together because of her organization and attention to details. She was professional, responsive, and supportive, with great communication. On the day of, she created the timeline and skillfully managed all of our vendors. She also helped set up decor and helped my family and friends know what to do. I was worried that on my wedding day I would feel too much like a "host" and she really helped take so much off my shoulders so I could enjoy the experience. Would recommend 1000% for any event. -

We were blown away by how amazing and helpful Michelle was for us. From the get-go, she was well-organized, kind, and helpful. She was always a step ahead and ensured all the pieces of the puzzle went into place.
Then came a true test. Right before our wedding day, we got some unfortunate news that necessitated us to cancel our reception venue completely. This terrible news was handled amazingly well by Michelle. She talked though the situation with my partner and I and gave us options. We ended up having the reception in our family's backyard and needed to change the plans for the caterer, alcohol, DJ, and cake all in the last few days.
She went above and beyond and stepped up for us in the final days and hours before our wedding, and was an absolute superhero on our wedding day.
The amount of work she did was phenomenal. Some extra details that stand out to us are:
● All of the work and coordination to get things running smoothly a new venue in such short notice (and with all the changes that had to occur from our plan).
● Her going out of her way to get my mom a meal for her dietary restriction
● Pinning on the groom and groomsmen's boutonnieres
● Sheltering the bride from the rain
● Passing out appetizers
● Passing out cake
● All of the myriad of things she did that we don't even know about.
The amount of work she did for us blows our minds. Choosing her was, in hindsight, the best decision we could have made! -

I don’t even have the words to begin to explain how helpful and wonderful Michelle was throughout our wedding planning. For the first few months of our engagement we tried to plan on our own, but it was stressful and overwhelming. As soon as we hired Michelle, wedding planning became way less stressful and more fun. Michelle was genuinely so excited for us and for our wedding celebration. “Above and beyond” doesn’t even begin to describe all of the things she did for us during wedding planning: she spent hours on zoom calls with us patiently helping us make decisions, she communicated back and forth with all of our vendors, she was so thorough and responsive to emails, she created the most organized spreadsheets, checklists, and to-do lists, she visited our venues on her own time to get the lay of the land, and more. She really took the time to get to know us and help us make our vision a reality. Michelle put not just her labor but her absolute heart into planning our wedding. On the day of the wedding, she handled everything as it came up, smoothing over any issues that arose without us ever knowing so that we could just be present and enjoy our day without worrying about the logistics.
Along with her enthusiasm, Michelle is just incredibly kind. She has the most calming presence, which was super helpful throughout our planning because our heads would be spinning from trying to figure things out on our own and she would just quell all our worries and take everything off our hands. Truly, she was our favorite person throughout the wedding planning and we recommend her to everyone we know who is getting married. We got so many compliments from family and wedding guests telling us how impressed they were by Michelle and what a lovely person she is. If you do nothing else, hire Michelle. She is phenomenal at what she does, she has a gift for creating wedding magic, and she single handedly changed our wedding planning experience from stressful to stress-free and enjoyable. Michelle is the best! -

Brenna O. Sent on 08/14/2022Michelle is exceptional!
After having talked to multiple planners and not feeling like we had found "the one," our venue passed along Michelle's information and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to work with her!
Throughout the planning process, my husband and I continually would say to each other how happy we were working with Michelle and how supported we felt every step of the way. Michelle's advice, attention to detail and willingness to discuss any concern we had truly made the planning process that much easier and our day extra special. Our only regret is that we didn't utilize more of her planning services!
Our experience working with Michelle was exceptional - it's hard to know what to expect going into the wedding planning process and I was blown away by Michelle's support - she was always prepared, thorough, and very thoughtful. If you are on the fence about working with a planner - look no further than Michelle - she's a rockstar! -

My wife and I used Bustle and Lace for our wedding earlier this year. From day one, Michelle was attentive, responsive and more than willing to address our every need (no matter how frivolous!). We hired Michelle a bit later in the process given that we had a number of things outstanding with only two months in advance of our big day. Despite this tight timeline, Michelle quickly got up to speed and independently coordinated with our other vendors to make sure that everyone was on the same page. Her organization skills and detail-orientedness made the weeks leading up to our wedding seamless.
On our wedding day, my wife and I experienced what any couple wants for their big day - a fun, stress-free day creating lifelong memories with their loved ones! It’s safe to say that we owe all of this to Michelle! Michelle made sure that everyone was prepared and adhered to the timeline. She also exceeded expectations by incorporating special moments for all of the guests to enjoy. For example, my wife’s birthday was the day before our wedding. After Michelle learned of this, she ordered a birthday cake (making sure to ask me what my wife’s favorite flavor was of course!) for me to present to my wife, which was a highlight of the wedding! This was only one instance of Michelle going above and beyond to ensure that our day was special and memorable. Another time she exceeded expectations came when a new COVID-19 requirement was placed only one month out from our wedding date. The mandate required our guests and vendors to take action and Michelle handled all correspondence needed with the tight timeline. Whether messages we needed to send or information our vendors required from our guests, Michelle held our hand through all of it. We cannot recommend Michelle enough - she is incredible! -

Booking Michelle as our day-of-coordinator was easily the best decision of the wedding planning process. From the very first phone call her calm, cool, collected demeanor was apparent and I knew she was just who I was looking for! The thoroughness of her services for our wedding was incredible - zoom calls, check-ins, vendor communication, spreadsheets, arranging walk throughs and site visits - Michelle did all the stuff I didn’t even realize I’d need to do to pull off a successful wedding! She came to our condo 2 days before the wedding to pick up all the stuff we had sitting around to bring to the venue, she ran our rehearsal, and she kept things running on time the day of the wedding. My goal in finding a coordinator was simple - I didn’t want to think about a single thing the day of our wedding except waking up on time and getting pampered with my friends - and Michelle made sure that came true for me! She was such a joy to work with - so much so that I recommended her to 2 friends and they BOTH booked her for their upcoming weddings! -

When I was looking for a planner, I had so many ideas and decisions made already that I was sure I only needed a day of coordinator to ensure the day went as planned. This is what I hired Michelle at Bustle and Lace for but I was blown away with how much extra value I felt I got from her services. She was very thorough in making sure we considered every last detail of wedding planning and the day of to the point where I felt like she was our full time planner. There were several things that we just never would have considered that turned out to be important aspects of planning and she made sure everything went off without a hitch. From my first conversation with her, I felt like Michelle was a true advocate for us in every aspect and we couldn't be more appreciative. I would recommend Michelle in a heartbeat and would say she's a great fit for those of us who think we have it all under control, as well as those who have no idea where to start. She never overstepped or tried convincing me of anything, she only made sure I had the options and understood the details.
