McCollum Wedding 2020

I cannot emphasize enough how amazing Sasha and the Oh So Classy team was!! My husband and I planned our wedding in Tampa while living in Chicago and Sasha made the process so smooth! Sasha is so skilled at filtering information to Brides/Grooms to minimize the stress of decision making! she truly made our wedding come to life and made the process enjoyable!! In addition to ensure the planning process went smooth, Sasha also kept our budget in mind and was able to help prioritize vendor selections to ensure we were spending money efficiently! We will remember this day for the rest of our lives:) Thanks Oh So Classy Team!! -Marcy&Ryan

We love love love Sasha and her team at Oh So Classy Events!!! We were unfortunately one of the couples affected by the sudden closure of the 1930 Grande Room, and with only 4 months until our wedding, we set out to completely re-plan from out of state. Sasha was one of the very first vendors to reach out to us, and she extended a very thoughtful discount, since we had lost so much money. She along with Hope from the Rialto, really made us feel like the wedding community of Tampa really cared. Sasha has such great attention to detail, I knew I could trust her from the beginning. The wedding was executed flawlessly!!! I had a very specific vision, and Sasha stayed true to my expectations, and even threw in some nicely complimented surprises to the decor I provided. I did not hire her for the design package, but know I am wondering how much better it could have been if I did! She has a very tasteful and classy design approach, and like I said, amazing attention to detail!

My husband and I met with Sasha and Annika after getting a recommendation from our photographer to use them. We explained what we were looking for, that we just wanted assistance leading up to our big day and then coordination the day of. Sasha was able to put together a package that included partial planning, taking over communication with all of our vendors two weeks before, and coordination the day of. Annika was our primary contact throughout planning and every month would email us to check in on how planning was going and asking if we had any questions. Whenever I reached out for help, I always got a quick response. There was one time Annika wasn't available and Sasha promptly responded and got an answer for us.

About two weeks to the wedding, Annika basically took control over contacting all our vendors. There was even one time I had called the caterer and asked about linen for some of the tables and they already had added them per Annika's request! At the rehearsal the day before, Annika let everyone know where they needed to be at all times before and after the ceremony. The day of our wedding, I dropped off all the items we had DIYed and that was all I had to worry about doing all day! Anything else that needed to be addressed, Annika contacted my MOH. I only heard about one thing, and that was asking where the cake cutter and server were. Despite the fact that this was on my to-do list and I kept looking, I never found one I liked and then completely forgot about it! No need to worry though, Annika got it taken care of!

In addition to Annika was Allison and together, they set everything up perfectly! Throughout the night, whenever we were needed for something like cake cutting or speeches, Annika would find us and make sure everything was on schedule. Not having to worry about any detail, my husband and I were able to enjoy our night celebrating with each other and all of our loved ones.

Thank you so much Sasha, Annika, and Allison!

Oh man, where do I even begin? Oh So Classy is just incredible. We booked them soon after getting engaged and originally signed our contract for the full planning + design option. With that, I worked closely with Sasha and she was extremely responsive and accommodating. Sasha acted as our full planner for a month or two before I realized something about myself: I'm very Type A and knew exactly what I wanted. I was doing things we hired OSC for before Sasha even had a chance. Having started planning with a smaller budget in the beginning, we weren't sure if we could afford a videographer. I explained all of this to Sasha and she was extremely understanding and let us change our service to the coordination-only service. Because of this, we were able to get a videographer and I am still so grateful for that.

After changing services, Sasha no longer worked with us and we instead worked with Kara and Annika. We still had access to the AMAZING planning portal OSC gives their clients access to (seriously, Idk what I would've done without it). I worked very closely with Kara from that point on. She wasn't just a typical day-of coordinator. She was there to help and answer any questions I had months and months before the wedding. The weeks leading up to our wedding Kara got extremely involved in all of the details to make sure we checked everything off our list. I met with Kara and Annika about a month before the wedding and we laid out all of the details, putting me at ease with things I had been stressing about.

The day of our wedding, Kara and Annika were prompt and on time and worked SO hard to make our day special until the very last minute. They worked closely with my parents on any issues that arose and distributing final payments + gratuities, etc. so that my new husband & I could enjoy every second of our wedding.

I couldn't recommend OSC enough, no matter what service you choose. The team is incredible and will make sure your wedding day is PERFECT. <3

I cannot say enough good things about Sasha and her team! We planned my wedding together for 2 years and now that our FLAWLESS wedding is over, I miss working with her! She is very professional, and has connections with amazing vendors! I had planned a completely outdoor wedding, and of course if poured rain day of. Sasha already had a backup tent reserved, but there was too much lightening to pitch it. Her team worked so hard to put together a back up to our back up plan We were in such good hands I didn't have to worry. When the rain stopped, she rallied the troops and made our reception space under the tent magical. Everything was perfect. Can not thank Sasha and Oh So Classy enough. I recommend her to every bride I meet!

Sasha is a god send when it comes to wedding planning.

I had her for partial planning because I had a general idea for my wedding and needed some help on some things along the way.

The majority of the wedding planning was smooth until the week of the wedding. Random things just went crazy (with no fault to Sasha) but Sasha was able to save the day and fix all the issues that occurred. On the day of wedding, whatever issues that might have happened I never knew about because my husband and I both believe the wedding went beautifully with nothing out of place. She also made sure everything was wrapped up after the wedding when my husband and I left in our get away car. Everything was taken care of without me needing to be there.

Not only is Sasha a professional and knows what she's doing but she's a wonderful person and was always there when I needed her. With her I never had to feel I was overwhelmed with wedding planning.

If you are debating on the need for a wedding planner think no more...YES you need one. Sasha helped me from start to finish. She will guide you when choosing between vendors, recommend vendors within your budget & understand when you tell her what things are important and not important for your wedding. Also there is nothing better than to have someone you can ask for advice during all those wedding planning months than a planner (& yes you will feel the need to run every decision by her lol!). All the vendors she recommended performed above expected in particular the florist & photographer (Andrea & Ailyn :)). The day off the wedding I worried about absolutely nothing & if something went wrong I did not even hear about it. I enjoyed my wedding day from start to finish, danced all night & Sasha was key for this. And of course the reception decor was PERFECT! Sasha was able to capture my ideas & make them real. Don't hesitate..book her..you won't regret it!!! Happy Wedding!

Sasha was great to work with. She helped my husband and I's wedding day go off without any issues.
To me, Sasha sticks out above other planners for her organization and how much she truly cares for you and your other half. She was constantly communicating with me throughout the whole process, and never pressured me to go with certain vendors.
She even takes random phone calls from brides worried about the Florida weather!
Thank you to Oh So Classy Events for helping make my wedding everything I wanted and more!

My wedding day was a breeze thanks to Sasha. We met a couple times before my wedding date, she provided a thorough spreadsheet for me to fill out with all the details of my day. Of course, I forgot some things, but she took it in stride. On the day, everything was perfect. If anything went wrong, I did not hear about it and that's the way it should be. No bride should be stressed on her wedding day, we have enough emotions as it is! Sasha and her team were worth every penny.

Incredibly professional and receptive to this helecopter mom. Sasha kept us abreast of budget concerns, ran interference with vendors and that special day for my daughter was the very best. Don't think I can thank her enough. She knows the business and is excellent at her job. Best advise I can give is to trust her with your wedding. No regret! She suggested vendors and made all arrangements from venue to lighting, music and anything in between for this outdoor wedding and stayed until the lights were out.

Where do I even begin with how amazing Sasha and her team are? Booking Oh So Classy/Sasha turned out to be one of the best decisions of our entire wedding. We used the "month of coordination," which was a huge lifesaver in those last stressful weeks of wedding planning and organization. Sasha helped execute huge headaches of tasks, like coordinating vendors for the day and making a timeline that flowed absolutely perfectly. On the day of the wedding, Sasha and her team set up every detail exactly as I envisioned them with no direction at all. It's like she could read my mind! :) I felt at ease with Sasha from my first meeting with her and I'm so glad she was a part of our wedding day. This review can't even cover all of the little things OSC will help you with for your wedding. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND OH SO CLASSY/SASHA! You will not regret having OSC in charge the day of! No stress at all!

Booking a wedding planner was definitely one of the best ideas I've ever had! Sasha has the hook-up to some fantastic vendors who (shamless bragging coming) blew our wedding out of the water! By making the vendor referral process pain-free and also with discounts vendors provided by booking through Sasha, her services basically paid for themselves. Sasha also provided me with a time-line that helped me to clearly understand what I needed dto accomplish and by what point in the planning process. And having a point-person in charge of taking care of logistics and details the morning of the wedding took away a tremendous amount of stress. It's worth it!

Briana and Sasha from Oh So Classy Events seriously were the best investment I made for our wedding day. They were a pleasure to work with and did everything they possibly could to ensure the day ran smoothly and to our liking. There were a few instances where things went wrong with some of the other vendors and Briana took care of everything with such professionalism that I, the bride, had no idea anything happened until after the event. Words can't express my gratitude to Briana for making my wedding day perfect and hassle free! She worked so hard she was sweating at the end of the night, and she did it all with a smile on her face! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!!

Sasha was so helpful in planning our wedding in Sarasota. My bride and I both live about twelve hours from where our ceremony was held, so it was important that we had a competent planner. Sasha was very patient with us and provided quality assistance on everything from hiring a DJ to choosing a dessert menu. Her service was much appreciated and genuinely helped make our day wonderful and an "oh so classy" event!

We cannot say enough about Sasha and her team at Oh So Classy! She was there with us every step of the way and helped us manage everything from budgeting concerns to pre-wedding stress! On the day of, everything went off without a hitch. The Oh So Classy team was so attentive my husband and I felt like celebrities and their hard work made everything completely stress free so that we were able to relax and enjoy our day.
I would recommend Oh So Classy to ANY bride! We didn't think we would have the budget for a wedding planner but we received so many discounts and freebies from our vendors because of using Oh So Classy that the planning service mostly paid for itself.
Thank you for everything, Sasha!

Sasha and Briana truly are the best! I used them for "day of coordination" so that I and the rest of the wedding party wouldn't have to stress the day of the wedding. They definitely made the wedding day planning process stress free and smooth sailing! Sasha and Briana contacted all vendors, they were responsive and quick to answer all questions that I had and they were very flexible with meeting times. I am so pleased to have had them as my wedding planners. Everything went great! I couldn't have asked for a better team as they definitely know what they're doing! I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a wedding planner or day of coordinator. Thank you so much for everything!

I hired Oh so Classy for day of planning. I'm so thankful I did. They came to my venue and took over setting up the reception. They made sure to take over everything and let me, my family and friends enjoy the moment. They helped with lining up my wedding party for the ceremony and making sure everyone was where they needed to be and when. After the event was over they packed up everything for me and left me with no worries. I highly suggest using them for a worry free day.

Sasha and her team did a really good job at staying in contact with us, she was very flexible with me on some deadlines when I had some family emergencies. Our rehearsal went great because of her and she did her best to help me deal with a bad DJ and a hairstylist that went over an hour and a half. She kept me informed the day of the wedding and went out of her way to help us. She even helped me through the days after the wedding. We wouldn't of made it through the day without her.

Additionally, Sasha from Oh So Classy provided us with great suggestions and always kept the vision we had for our wedding day top of mind. We would definitely recommend Oh so Classy as your wedding planners, and can assure you, your wedding day will be just as "Beautiful"as the Bride!

Thank you Oh So Classy Events and Sasha for helping to make our dream wedding come true!!!

I used the "Just Be There" package as I wanted to plan everything and then pass it on to someone who would put it all together and help make sure everything ran smoothly. That is exactly what Sasha did! Sasha is very responsive, always responding to my emails quickly. She is super nice and professional, too. She created a day of timeline to ensure the day was perfect. She was there for the majority of the day of the wedding and made sure I didnt have to deal with anything so I could just relax.

Thank you, Sasha, for your help!

First and foremost let me just say, SASHA IS AWESOME AND IF YOU DONT HIRE HER AND HER TEAM YOU ARE CRAZY!!!!

I met Sasha's assistant at the Your Wedding TV bridal show in Tampa. He was so helpful answered all of my questions and suggested that I sign up for their raffle, they were giving one lucky bride 50% off her package. In the begging I had no plans of hiring a planner, but I found out that I was having to relocate, so I was interested in one to help take off some of the stress since I would need to be planning my wedding in another state.

Shortly after the bridal show I received a call, from Sasha directly, that I had won the package. I let her know that I was still meeting with other planners, and I would let her know my decision. She met with me once, and my now husband at a later date before I decided to go with her services.

Sasha is fierce, she fights to make sure you get EXACTLY what you ask for and more. She keeps a record of everything and she listens!!! She writes everything down and she is attentive enough that I she made decisions for me when I was unavailable and the decision she made were exactly what I would have done. The day of my wedding my videographer apparently had an accident. She not only found me a replacement, but I dare say I think he was better than the original!!! And not only that she made sure that NO ONE KNEW until the problem was solved, that way I wasn't stressed out. She does an excellent job of damage control. Apparently my husband didn't show up to the wedding and was unable to be reached until he showed up at the venue at 5:05 pm, the wedding was supposed to start at 5:00 and not only that, I had seen Sasha and her staff more than once that day and at no point had she shown any worry as to the madness going on outside of my bridal suite. In fact I would have never known about the debacle if my husband hadn't told me himself!

I have so much to say but apparently no more space! SASHA IS AMAZING CHOOSE HER!

My son told me in February that he was getting married in March....I panicked and asked that he postpone so that we can have time to plan. He and his fiancé Michelle reassured me that everything was taken care of. I was still a little bit nervous. However the truth is that Oh So Classy was right there and they had every thing under control and the wedding was so lovely. Several of my nephews were married previously and spent way too much money....my son's wedding and his beautiful bride Michelle had a wonderful wedding that everyone enjoyed. Thanks Sasha you were awesome....Remember Alan and I will be getting married soon....your on deck.

Sasha, you're the best wedding planner ever. I experienced your talent on 03/08/13 (my brother's wedding, Jean Saint Pierre). The wedding was completely stress free for the bride and groom thanks to you! Let me tell you how good this girl is...the videographer had to cancel due to a family emergency hours before the ceremony. I was freaking out so bad and Sasha told me not to, she said "relax, its going to be find. it will work out." Best part of it, she kept it from my sister-in-law & my brother (the bride and groom), till now nobody else knows except me, isn't she awesome? She worked so hard and so quickly to get a replacement, and we even got one of the best in town, Randall Productions. She made the ceremony & reception go so smoothly and we all enjoyed and partied like a rockstars! I mean seriously. She got everything done on time. Even with my brother being in the military and the couple living out of state in SC! Once again Sasha, thank you for making my brother's wedding the best it could ever have been. From now on, you're the family's planner for the rest of the weddings to come! 1 down, 4 to go including mom and dad's 40th anniversary wedding. You're the best! You're awesome! You rock! Thank you!!! :)

Sasha dedicated herself entirely to me wedding and my vision. She knew what complimented my likes and built my dream wedding. She made it incredibly easy for my husband Christian and I to have an affordable yet quaint wedding. With the leg work that she did getting us the best value for every detail, she still kept us up to date on any change and had a back up plan at all times, just in case things didn't go according to plan. Overal I give Oh So Classy Events a 5.0 rating because in one month I got everything that I wanted and had an unforgettable wedding, all thanks to Sasha and her team. I would recommend her to anyone who is planning their wedding in a heart beat.

As an out-of-town bride, Sasha was an essential player in wedding planning. My mother was doing a lot of the original planning, but needed the help that I could not give from afar, and that was Sasha, especially during the last month. She was amazing in coordinating all of the vendors and making sure things went smoothly. In the end, we could just enjoy the day. Thank you Sasha for helping to make our day perfect!

Every girl dreams of her wedding day from the first time she watches a fairytale, Oh So Classy Events truly turned my dream wedding into a reality! When my husband and I decided to have a destination wedding at the Powel Crosley Estate in beautiful Sarasota, Florida, we knew we would need help with all of the planning. Sasha actually reached out to me on Instagram and I was so impressed with her after just speaking to her once that I knew she was the wedding planner we needed. Over the year we had to plan she helped keep me on track with the tasks, and helped select the best vendors in the area. She truly made our wedding day a fairytale, and a day we both talk about all of the time. I know that our guests enjoyed all of her thoughtful planning as well. I would highly recommend Oh So Classy Events to anyone that wants the perfect, dream wedding. They are nothing short of amazing!

Sasha did an excellent job keeping us on track with our daughter's wedding. She was prompt in returning emails and phone calls. And provided us with options when we faced challenges. She took care of all the little details that would have fallen through the cracks. Not only did she get the job done, she made it an enjoyable experience! I would highly recommend Oh So Classy Events.

We hired Sasha at Oh So Classy for her month of coordination package. This was probably the best decision we had made throughout the wedding planning process. I was long-distance planning and wanted to make sure that I was stress-free when I finally got into town to celebrate. (More importantly, I wanted my mother to not have to worry about anything that weekend.) Sasha worked with our budget and needs to customize her services to what we were looking for in a coordinator. She was very hands-on and even dealt with an aloof vendor of mine, who was a major stress-trigger for me. My husband and I really gelled well with Sasha's personality. Her attitude was calming and reassuring, and she always had a smile on her face. She wasn't the type of coordinator who is in your face and shouts directions at people. So, if that is what you are looking for, do not expect that with Sasha. (My "Type-A" personality of a mother expected someone like that and even made a comment on how Sasha "wasn't doing her job". But, that wasn't the case AT ALL. She just has a slower cadence to her direction. Which I respected and appreciated.) As far as reception set-up, I had a lot of DIY projects and items, and Sasha nailed the reception/cocktail hour - it was exactly how I envisioned. I would highly recommend her services for anyone who is looking for month of coordination - she exceeded our expectations and our day was perfect.

Sasha was outstanding planner, and if I had another daughter I would prefer her as my wedding planner.

Our experience (full coordination with design services) with Sasha and her team did not match the majority of the on-line reviews for Oh So Classy Events. Posting this note so that others can learn from our experience and work with Sasha to make their experience outstanding.
Good things •Florist (Andrea Layne) recommendation was excellent •Discounts from photographer/videographer and cake vendor for booking through OSC • Aisle Planner – on-line planning tool full of details with message tracking • Sasha saved us lots of phone calls and e-mails with vendors through her coordination •Sasha negotiated better pricing from venue on a few items•All vendors showed up on time and acted professionally •All items correctly placed at ceremony and reception (programs, signs, etc.) •Reception tables and seating looked beautiful •Reception tent and lighting was as promised•Very pleasant personality •Most guests did not notice any glitches.
Could use some work on attention to detail oNo “day of timeline” provided to wedding party on day of
oTable arrangements reversed from plan – Sasha gave the approved plan to the venue but didn’t check that it was correct oSasha did not count seats on beach for ceremony – 102 guests attending and only 90 seats set up. Some guests had to stand during 30 minute ceremony oSasha was mostly absent from reception – MOH had to search for Sasha for help oNo knife for cake cutting even though specifically discussed using venue service in advance – Sasha told the venue but didn’t check- bride ended up using carving knife from meat station oSasha did not execute late evening hand offs such as cards and left over cake to father of groom.
Sasha had not used the venue prior to this event - perhaps this was the source of some of the missteps as there was no discussion of how to use OSC with the “day of” coordination from the venue. We wish OSC all the best in the future!

Sasha would be a great coordinator if you needed her assistance with your wedding. Everything went well leading up to the wedding. I had signed the contract back in March and was told about 6 weeks before the wedding date that she'll be out of the country and won't be back till 2 days before the wedding.So the final meeting was pushed up and we thought we had more time to finalize on our end. People travel- we get it we just wish we had more notice instead of it being casually mentioned in an email thread.
The meeting was set for a Friday at 5. A few days before the meeting date she tells us that there is construction and asked if we could meet at our place or the venue. So we offered our place (Westchase) and was scheduled for a Friday at 5pm. The day of the meeting, literally at 4:45 I get a call from Sasha asking us if we could reschedule it for 6:30 as it's Friday and with traffic it'll take a while to get there. The fact that she called at 4:45 tells me she hasn't even started to leave S. TPA. We had planned our day around this meeting and had plans afterwards. So I compromised and asked her if we can do 5:30. She said she'll try, but eventually she didn't even get to our place till 6:30, the time she wanted. Clearly, if you're calling a client 15mins prior to try to change the time of the meeting you were obviously running late. She didn't even bother to apologize she was matter of fact and used traffic as an excuse. I had given her our address a few days before the meeting date and she's had our address (signed contract). There was lack of respect for our time - we are the clients. My husband typically doesn't get home till 6:30, he would've stayed at work and not have to deal with the hassle of rearranging his work schedule for this meeting, if we had known.
Regardless of the unprofessional ism with respect to our time. Sasha was a good day of coordinator. I didn't have to worry about anything, she took care of it all on the day of the wedding.

I needed a wedding planner at a stressful time when I was trying to plan everything on my own and work full time. I opted for partial planning due to most details already being complete by myself and my husband. For one I can say that the vendors who work with Oh So Classy are top of the line. During the initial process of planning things were going pretty well. In my opinion after my last payment was made things started to fall apart. Email responses took longer and I felt myself having to stay on top of important final details as if I was planning the wedding myself. A goal for a wedding planner is to help save money, even when certain situations arose,the back up plan would be to spend more money which did not make sense. When it came to my reception the place was amazing, in regards to the flow of the wedding I would say that my planner could have been more on top of things. At the end of the day I was not satisfied because I felt more like a payment versus a client. I say this in the most honest way possible not to bring anyone down but to provide opportunity for improvement. If I were getting married I would want to know the truth before I spend thousands of dollars and it not be what I expected.
Going forward if you are using a planner or anything you have to pay for in regards to a wedding, make sure your expectations are crystal clear. I am sure it's not easy being a planner dealing with brides constantly, I commend you for your work and wish you the best despite my not so great experience.

I hope we just caught Sasha at a bad transition period, because her wedding planning reviews did NOT match her performance with us. We really just felt like a number for most of our full service contract and one-year planning.

On the day, the lack of attention to detail and care for us as a couple went missing. She asked for a third assistant to accommodate our 180+ guests, and the three of them were almost like ghosts.

Before the ceremony: Sasha checked in on me and my bridal party only once, and we had no idea what was going on. A lot of items were not set up properly in the venue, which I could only find out through my bridesmaids' peeks. Also, aisleway items were apparently falling as people were taking their seats, and the guests in the aisle had to pick the stuff up, instead of the assistants. A couple of guests and even my sister-in-law noticed their general absence as well, I am still hearing from guests about things that were missed.

Cocktail hour: Again, Sasha and her assistants were essentially absent. Our photographer was completely distraught because, as we were taking pictures inside, all of the guests were supposed to be ushered outside, and they were not. So photography took much longer as we had to keep people out of the background.

Reception: Veil and helping me bustle my dress was an afterthought. The assistants held the door for the bridal party intros, and that's all we saw them do. I went to the bridal suite several times throughout the night, and each time, all three of them were sitting and chatting. Sasha did not offer to help fix my hair during one of those times, and did not have an emergency kit on hand. Sasha was also overheard fighting with the venue manager - not very professional, regardless of argument.

Overall, we expected more considering what we paid. For our first and only wedding, it seems Sasha is certainly organized on paper, but seems to have a limit as to what she can handle.

Oh so trashy

Oh so TRASHY....Is more like it!!!! I dont know where to start! Let's start with Sasha's inability to simply show up...which is what a wedding planner is supposed to do...right? There supposed to be there at the church, rehearsal, and reception....isn't that just common sence? Not for this wedding planner!!! Sasha was supposed to be the wedding planner at my sister's wedding this August....however she was a NO SHOW!!!! It wasn't till about 6 or 7pm when we had arrived back to the reception hall that I noticed a woman mumbling something standing by our waiting area before we were to be announced. We all gathered in the waiting area and my father, mother, bride, groom, and pretty much everyone is in an absolute panic b/c Sasha was no were....i had to walk through the horsdoures and fancy cocktail ballroom yelling, "IS ANYONE HERE THE WEDDING PLANNER?....WHO KNOWS WERE THE WEDDING PLANNER IS?....ARE U THE WEDDING PLANNER?" Finally, a woman comes panting into the lobby as if she had just ran into the reception at that moment!!! Then I had to tell Sasha she needed to introduce herself to my father (the man that payed her enormous fee's in advance) to simply show up and do her job. I mean what kind of business is this woman running were she doesn't even show up ALL day then finally appears and doesn't even have the respect to introduce herself to the individual that is paying her to do a service. No one in the wedding party....or even the bride could find this woman. She gave absolutely NO direction to the wedding party as we were being introduced as to where we were seated or what direction we should go in as we were being announced. She was hiding in the back of the hotel lobby outside of the welcome area....my sister bought a beautiful guest book shaped as a tree and the guests were supposed to sign each leaf and it was going to be framed as a precious memory....guess what...not ONE guest signed the book!!! Sasha has absolutely NO emotional connection or evolvment invested in making the day flow and all the pieces comming together. I verbalized my concernes about her unprofessional behavior and she did not seem to be bothered by my blatant disappointment in her. I really didn't think things could get worse but Sasha proved me wrong once again....she was at the reception a good 45min maybe an hour tops and my sister (the bride) and groom leave to finish up the last of there pictures with the photographer. They went outside and I knew that Sasha was probably not there to assist them if they needed help so I walked outside to attempt to locate them and I see Sasha standing at the valet holding the seating chart diagram and a plastic bag waiting for her car!!!! The wedding planner, Sasha, was leaving the wedding after only being there 1hr tops!!!! She wasn't even going to notify anyone!!!! It wasn't until I caught her trying to leave that i finally confronted her. I said Sasha, "Do you feel you have behaved in a professional manner today"? She looked at me realizing I caught her red handed trying to leave and began lying to me telling me she was looking for me to tell me she was leaving. I said, "Sasha, why would you be looking for me outside at the valet with ALL your things and were is my sister? Sasha replied stating that after the guests start to dance there really is NO POINT in her being there and suprise suprise she had NO idea were the bride or groom where.. If things couldn't guess worse....no one was notified that the cake was being cut and I think anyone that hires this woman is absolutely crazy!!! She was dressed like a bag lady at an upscale cocktail party and lacked manners and respect! She shouldn't be allowed to run a buisness!!! DONT HIRE THIS FRAUD!!!!

Find Another Planner/Coordinator!

Absolutely would not recommend. I spent a lot of time thinking through the little details of my wedding and required minimal execution by Sasha on the day of the Wedding.... none of it was completed as discussed. Sasha was meant to insulate my husband and I from Wedding Day issues but every time we interacted she was venting to me about the problems she had to deal with (what she was hired to do).

To name a few issues: I had to repeatedly ask her for promised documents/access to my timeline spreadsheet before the wedding. She was non-responsive to vendors in the days leading up to the Wedding when they were asking her for timeline information. My videographer never even heard back from her at all before the wedding. She was late to arrive on the Wedding Day as well as to our in-person meeting at the venue. Our card box was left in the hallway of the public venue well into the reception which is something Sasha scoffed at the venue for reminding her of at our on-site meeting. She told guests she did not want to hang up my bar signs (that matched my decor) because she didn't "want them to look janky." Inappropriate to speak with my guests that way. She was non-responsive when I sent an email post-wedding looking for some kind of resolution.

I spent hours filling in her massive spreadsheet for her to not follow any of the included directions. Extremely disappointing that this is how she runs her business.

The other vendors we worked with on the Wedding Day had nothing but negative feedback about Sasha and her unprofessionalism. Had I not had an extremely supportive Maid of Honor and all my ducks in a row before the Wedding it would have been an absolute disaster in Sasha’s hands.
