Michaela was so helpful as our day of coordinator for our wedding. We hired her after realizing we would need someone to organize our reception decor while we were enjoying our morning. We hired her the day before Thanksgiving and she still coordinated with us over the holiday weekend to finalize the contract. Michaela was responsive to emails and her pricing policy was very clear. I’m pretty type A and organized on my end, so I wanted someone who would follow my directions and execute my vision well. Michaela gave me tasks to complete and offered her suggestions and input on my ideas when she had them. Her advice and guidance was very helpful, but also if it didn’t work for us, she didn’t pressure me or make me feel bad for going in a different direction. She made really great decisions in my absence and handled the very, very windy day that we were all caught off guard by. I was so busy focusing on and preparing for rain, that I didn’t even prepare for it. When my bustle got ripped out of my dress at the reception, my sister was ready to drive back to our rental house on the other side of the property… but I knew that Michaela would have us covered. Sure enough- she did! An entire case of safety pins were available and saved the day.
Another thing about Michaela was that I felt truly that she was attempting to be respectful of our money and economical. When I felt like I would need more time, she offered to send the invoice, but suggested that we wait until our final call a month before the event to determine the timeline and make that determination. We did end up adding a little bit of additional time, but not too much. I also wanted to have 2 walkthroughs ahead of the wedding, which Michaela accommodated well.
Michaela always responded to my emails and texts, and was great at everything leading up to the wedding, as well as the day of. The morning of the wedding, she was early and texted ahead of time to ask if I wanted space or if I wanted her to come see me when she arrived. It was nice to be able to choose based on what I was feeling in the moment. During the reception, she was great about doing ANY job… picking up slack from the caterer who made some big fumbles, adjusting the timeline on the fly, coordinating with the DJ for announcements, giving me some directions of what to do when food wasn’t ready on time (a great suggestion of going table to table to greet our guests and socialize with them). My friends and family all said that she was the backbone of the reception and I loved the way I could point people over to her if they had or needed something.
Overall, I think Michaela was a great hire for a type A bride who needed someone to kick ideas around with and wanted someone who could execute the vision they had very well. If this is what you’re looking for, Michaela is your girl! If you’re searching for someone who can give some more planning support or even full planning, I can’t imagine Michaela couldn’t do that as well. I would trust her ideas and the things she has to offer.
Also- a great shout out to her for having free decor!! That was an awesome service to have and really helped us out 🙂

We could not be happier with Enchanted Garden! From our initial consultation call to the big day itself, Enchanted Garden made us feel special, taken care of, and free of stress. Our day-of coordinator, Abby, was THE BEST. She was completely on top of every single logistic with responsive and timely communication consistently. She gave us invaluable piece of mind on the big day due to her consummate professionalism, competence, and attitude. We couldn’t have done it without her and we are eternally grateful that she was running the show. Thank you so much, Abby! We cannot recommend Abby and Enchanted Garden enough. -

Michaela and Abby were awesome!
They really helped making our wedding come true. They created a binder for our vendors, and really took charge to make us feel relaxed during such a hectic day. I felt reassured leaving everything in their teams hands! -

We cannot recommend Michaela enough. From the first time we met, it was clear she was incredibly organized and detail-oriented—exactly what we needed for our day-of coordinator. She thought of everything we didn’t, handled last-minute changes like a pro (rain floor plan change, my printer stopped working), and ensured every detail was documented. Her attention to detail was unmatched. She even brought a full wedding binder that had everything from our timeline to vendor contacts to backup plans. It instantly put us at ease.
Leading up to the wedding, she gave us great ideas and feedback on anything we were not sure about or had not decided on. We talked multiple times during our wedding month and did a venue walk through together to make sure we had all the details documented.
On the day of the wedding, Michaela handled everything behind the scenes so smoothly. Every little thing we had planned was carried out with care and precision, and she navigated the inevitable small curveballs with calm professionalism.
She struck the perfect balance between being professional and approachable. Our families and wedding party appreciated how clear and calm her communication was throughout the day.
Having Michaela there allowed us to enjoy the day instead of managing it—and for that, we’re so grateful. If you’re looking for someone who is extremely organized, dependable, and genuinely invested in making your day go perfectly, Michaela is the one!

Michaela was the day-of coordinator for my recent wedding. She made our day so easy! Her knowledge and flexibility really helped us plan the perfect day for our vision. She took over vendor communications about a month before our event, but also graciously attended a venue walk-through with us before our contract started. We really appreciated her willingness to work with our timeline. I have a hard time trusting people to handle things for me, but Michaela made me feel so relaxed. She ran a nice and easy rehearsal for us, handled everything for the setup for our big day, and made sure everything got where it needed to be. She also kept us on time, which was a big deal. We’re so glad that we decided to work with her! She also has a lot of great decor available for use by clients. -

Michaela and team are friendly, very easy to work with and affordable. Weekend Warriors Events highly recommend giving them a call for your event planning needs. They will take care of you for sure! -

When we began planning our wedding I was extremely overwhelmed, we had tons of ideas but we didn't know where to buy items, who to book, how to combine our esthetics, how to make/run a website for guests, or what flowers worked for my husband and me. Then we met Kayla. I am not sure how best to describe her, she's essentially everything you need and things you didn't know you needed. She made all of our ideas come together seamlessly, and professionally while being caring and sweet, and we couldn't be happier. I will always recommend her to anyone I meet who is getting married! Thank you so much Kayla! -

We didn’t plan originally the budget for coordinator but had to do it to relief some stress of the wedding planning and Michaela had a very affordable pallet for our micro wedding. She’s still young and in the process of learning, so she has some room to grow, but overall she did very good job coordinating between the venue and guests during the wedding and reception. A couple of smaller things were not perfect, like missing cake decor (which was rectified by the venue manager) or no one helping the bride to change the dress for reception, but overall we were happy. Our recommendation to Michaela is to be more responsive via phone or email. In some instances I had to wait for over a day to hear back from her which only adds stress to the pre-wedding hype. -

We regret hiring Michaela, the owner of Enchanted Garden Event Planning, as our wedding coordinator. Her performance was nothing short of disastrous. From start to finish, she exhibited a shocking lack of organization, professionalism, and respect for the event and the people involved.
She arrived late, was visibly irritated and impatient throughout the day, and failed to execute even basic responsibilities. Instead of ensuring a smooth experience for the bride and groom, she argued multiple times with the bride, the mother of the bride, the maid of honor, and other members of both wedding partners’ families and wedding party. At one point, the bride was even forced to set up for her own wedding, standing in front of guests before walking down the aisle—all because Michaela and her team failed to prepare in time.
Beyond the sheer disorganization, her lack of professionalism was appalling. Guests were put to work, one staff member smoked near the bride, and the seating arrangement was completely mismanaged, causing unnecessary chaos. With how unhelpful and unaware Michaela was, you would have thought this was the first wedding she had ever encountered. Her poor planning and behavior led to so many avoidable issues that, ultimately, she was fired midway through the wedding—a decision we did not take lightly but felt was absolutely necessary.
A wedding should be a joyful, seamless experience for the couple, their families, and their guests. Instead, our day was filled with stress due to Michaela’s actions. And even the day after, instead of reminiscing about the beautiful moments of our wedding, we were left feeling embarrassed and regretful about how it all unfolded.
While Michaela was undoubtedly responsible for this disaster, we recognize that she cannot take all the blame. Both my bride and I saw many red flags throughout the planning process and still chose to go forward with her. As much as we are disappointed in Michaela, we are also disappointed in ourselves for hiring her.
If you want a coordinator who will respect your wishes, treat your wedding with care, and bring professionalism to your most important day, do not hire Enchanted Garden Event Planning. Learn from our mistake—we ignored the warning signs, and it cost us one of the most important days of our lives.
