Sara V. Sent on 03/29/2024The Absolutely Best Wedding Planner/Coordinator
I had no intention of hiring a wedding planner/coordinator, specifically because my venue let us know we could save on costs since they would provide all the support we needed. I also leaned on the fact that I am a professional project manager, so I confidently took on the task of planning. Then one of my vendors strongly suggested that we at least hire a day-of coordinator as she told me she doesn't understand why venues are telling couples they don't need a point of contact when the venue is only going to look after the venue. I'm so glad I received that advice, as we ended up hiring Natasha to be our month-of-coordinator. Natasha's rates are reasonable which leaves you room to really choose the service that will work best for your needs.
Upon my first call with Natasha I could tell she was all things a wedding planner/coordinator should be AND MORE! She is fun and knows what it means to be celebrating an occasion as important as a wedding, but above all I could tell that she runs a tight ship and will keep everything and everyone in line!
What also attracted me to Natasha's services was her order of operations. Natasha has a very strict and detailed timeline that she creates which holds everyone involved with your wedding accountable in making sure that what you want to happen in your day will happen. The prep for this timeline starts with communications with Natasha before the month prior to your wedding and after these communications Natasha is able to take your requests and desires and run with the coordination.
During at least the last month and a half I had no idea how much more needed to be done because these are little tedious details that no one tells you to look for, but luckily because we had Natasha, and she managed those affairs.
If me or my husband were the ones communicating with our vendor Natasha was cc'd on the email, and let me tell you she was not a silent partner! She was texting us and encouraging us, especially during the tougher communications that needed to be had.
Because of Natasha's experience she was able to prepare me on what to expect and give me advice on how to handle it as well. During all of this time Natasha is learning her clients and what they like, so I would also often text her asking for her opinion on things, and I was a bride who didn't want many people even knowing what I was doing, but I trusted Natasha and always appreciated her perspective.
During the rehearsal she got our wedding party ready for a great time and ready to set the tone for the wedding. My sister was my maid of honor and she was feeling a bit overwhelmed about knowing what was needed the day of the wedding and Natasha let her know that she just needed to lean on her so she had nothing to worry about.
If I were to go into detail about how amazing it was to have Natasha by our side the day of the wedding, this review would go on even longer! All I can say is this day was absolutely perfect, and Natasha had everything to do with it. Her detailed timeline had everyone on point from the start in the morning and built in room for other things that would be needed and even just little things that we wanted to add last minute. Then on the human level, but in Natasha's case, the super human level, she had this amazing ability to be right where she needed to be between my husband and I. For example, I think she finished checking in on the guys and then caught my bridesmaids rehearsing their reception entrance in the ballroom, so in true super human form she turned into Debbie Allen and coached them into their epic bridesmaid entrance.
Natasha is also amazing at handling any sensitive family situations, and by handle I mean she can turn something you're worry about into positive moments. What she did for me and my husband, I will hold close to my heart for a lifetime. She will be you and your husbands' biggest hypewoman, and she knows exactly how your body feels at every moment like when to take the shoes off for a break or when to hand you a mini fan on the dancefloor. You will feel fabulous, loved and supported throughout your entire day!
I can go on more, but I just have to conclude by saying that so much money is put into this day, and even if you have the best vendors the experience of the planning and your wedding day are determined by who you decide to have as your person to lead the pack, and I would recommend hiring Natasha 1,000 times over. -

Gabriela Sent on 12/11/2023The best coordinator!
When we were first looking for a day of coordinator, we were in between Natasha and someone else. What really sold us on picking Natasha was the amazing reviews she had. I followed her Instagram, saw her work and could tell she was going to be a great coordinator. But she really exceeded our expectations! We had our wedding on 10/29/23. She had such an attention to detail, and was on point with everything. I knew that with her being our coordinator our day would be stress free and it really was! We did not have to worry about anything. She is professional, kind, organized. From her morning call saying happy wedding day to checking in with us throughout our day she was just simply amazing. We can’t thank her enough! And we definitely recommend her. -

Natasha was everything we could have hoped for and more! Natasha went above and beyond to help us finally achieve our dream wedding, that was two years in the making. From our first introductions to the end of our reception, Natasha ensured everything ran smoothly with no hick-ups. Thanks to Natasha, the wedding planning process was surprisingly stress free. We were able to pick an amazing venue and crew (photographer, videographer and florist) for our big event. We highly recommend WeddingsByNatasha as we will never forget the impeccable services provided. Also Natasha has great music taste :) -

We couldn’t have done it without Natasha! From helpful tips/reminders leading up to our wedding to a perfectly crafted and executed timeline, Natasha was the best wedding coordinator/ wedding planner we could have asked for! We were able to relax and enjoy our wedding knowing that Natasha and her team had everything under control, and we cannot thank her luxury experience enough. Wholeheartedly recommend Weddings By Natasha to any bride & groom. -

The best decision I’ve ever made . The BEST PLANNER out there!!
I would recommend Natasha’s service to any and everyone. I wasn’t sure how to articulate my vision on what I wanted . Natasha asked all the right questions , and provided visuals to bring everything together for us . Everything from her patience , planning down to the very last second , and communication was best in class. The way she personalizes your experience, and executes your vision flawlessly is outstanding. She provided great communication, follow up and delivery . Natasha pays close attention to detail , and always provided an alternative option to make sure the vision was executed. Both my husband and myself are so grateful to have gone through this experience with Natasha. -

Natasha is the #1 choice for a luxurious wedding experience. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and unwavering guidance were absolutely instrumental in making our special day an unforgettable success.
As a perfectionist and a stickler for details, it's often hard for me to relinquish control.Natasha's meticulous planning ensured that every detail was accounted for, from the grandest elements to the tiniest nuances. She exceeded all of our expectations.
The seamless coordination of vendors, the flawless execution of the timeline, and the overall atmosphere she helped create was beyond our wildest dreams. Thanks to Natasha, we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the joy of the day, without a single worry on our minds.
We couldn't imagine our special day without Natasha! She is definitely a top tier choice.

Jacklyn Sent on 07/20/2023Natasha is the fairy godmother I didn't know I needed!
Natasha is my fairy godmother! My wedding was in early July and I hired Natasha to be my month of/day of coordinator and I can say she handled me with exceptional care. I don't know how many of you reading this have been brides before, but that morning for me felt nothing but jitters. I wanted to make sure everything was going according to plan, my family had a no trouble with transit, I wanted my bridesmaids to feel pumped and excited, I was stressing over whether my dress could still fit, the worries were endless. Natasha, first thing in the morning called me with this calming yet naturing and excited morning message. "Good morning bride," so sweet and so attentive, she really got me ready for the day. When she arrived at the hotel she took into account how big this day was for me and always checked in with me. She made sure I knew that the ball was in my court always and that whatever I needed she'd advocate for. Closer to showtime, I let her know that I needed to be alone and with my thoughts and she instructed all the bridesmaids to leave the room. I can't even tell the story in order because I just keep remembering the little details of the day that made Natasha so special. There was a moment where she gave me this treatment where she lathered me up and made me feel really loved. She covered me in lotion from head to toe hunny.... as a black woman she made me reflect on the importance of not just self love but love we as women can offer each other. As someone who is on the rather shy side, Natasha gassed me up for when the pictures needed to be taken by calling me "Godiva" and it would always made me smile. The timeline was built to a T and all the vendors knew where to go and what time they needed to be there. She was in charge and kept the show running on time at all times and I couldn't have asked for a better wedding coordinator! Thank you so much Natasha!!!
PS: What made me chose Natasha was in the very beginning she asked me what would make my day. At the time I wasn't really sure what the answer should be and the first idea she put out there was," Will it be to know your mother is taken care of?".... That is the only thing that will make any day I have, the best day. So just like that, she had me at hello!

If you are reading this review right now, trying to determine who to pick for a wedding coordinator, I want you to stop what you are doing right now and contact Natasha Celestin-Civil at www.weddingbynatasha.com. You will not regret it!!
From start to finish, Natasha was exceptional! Her attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism made our special day flawless! She was always there whenever I needed assistance or had questions, going above and beyond. She proactively aided with aspects I hadn't even considered seeking help for. I highly, highly, recommend Natasha Celestin-Civil!!! Thank you, Natasha!WeddingbyNatasha's reply:

Michael C. Sent on 01/22/2023The GOAT wedding coordinator
It is no exaggeration to say that Natasha was the most important person at our wedding--more important than my wife and me frankly. She was everywhere, coordinating with the venue, helping to keep a firm timeline for photos and speeches, helping my wife bustle her dress up after the ceremony. She quarterbacked the whole day. In fact, she took charge long before the day of the wedding by making sure all of our ducks were in a row with every vendor. She was the point of contact for everyone at the end and she handled it all brilliantly. We're talking about even hanging on to a brush for my hair and gum for us to chew. It was a perfect combination of amazing organizational skills, while also including a very personal touch. Natasha even helped us navigate through the sort of inevitable inter-personal drama that happens with weddings. She was so awesome that people that we invited to our wedding were coming up to tell us how great a job she did. To ANYONE who is looking for a wedding coordinator/planner, your search is over. Call up Natasha and have your wedding done right.WeddingbyNatasha's reply:
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review and the honor of being seen as a GOAT. It was my pleasure to serve such a lovely couple and family. -

I took a good week to process my wedding that happened July 2, 2022. As an educator, knowing my wedding was the week after the last day of school, my schedule was going to be hectic and I wouldn’t be able to devote time to my wedding. So earlier on in the year, I met Natasha and it was an instant connection. To be honest, once I found her on weddingwire, I didn’t bother to look at anyone else. Her reputation, her personality, her expertise in the wedding industry captivated me. I told my husband we needed her as our day of coordinator and thank God she was available the day of the wedding.
A month prior to the wedding, I was going through a lot of stress and anxiety. There was not a time that I reached out to Natasha for some advice, clarification or to answer a question and she was not there for me. She provided me with LUXURY SERVICE. After every encounter, I felt such relief and the excitement of my wedding would come back.
Even my wedding vendors who worked with her, they’d just reaffirm me that I was in the best hands.
Natasha, I can’t thank you enough. From the rehearsal getting our crazy bridal party in check, to the day of the wedding NEVER leaving my side and leaving me questioning/looking for anything. Here is just a short list of the things she did for me.
1. She never left my side. Natasha was at my side to calm my nerves, ensure we were on schedule, put my dress on, was making sure I was eating and hydrated taking pictures, etc.
2. Moved my timeline to ensure that I got everything that I wanted. The weather predicted a lot of rain and I was so sad because I wanted to take pictures in the park so we opted for photos at the hotel we got ready at. Natasha noticed the weather changed for the better, discussed it with my photographers/videographer and limo transportation and arranged me and my husband to have time to take pictures we wanted in the park.
3. Natasha was my hype woman. Weddings are crazy. She always complimented me, reminded me of how beautiful I was and at a moment my energy was slightly off she would look at me like “Girl you getting married!!” and instantly would smile from ear to ear.
There was nothing I would change about my wedding. Absolutely nothing. But the reason I say this is because I had Natasha by myside. You have these fears that something would go wrong and NOTHING went wrong. Even if it did, I don’t know about it. My day was busy and eventful, yes, but when it was all over, I could look at my husband and say it was the best day of my life. Having Natasha as my day of coordinator, was the best decision I’ve made. I still have guests saying how amazing my wedding is and that I need to throw a renewal or something. If I do, I’ll definitely get Natasha again! -

I remember being up one night trying to figure out how I was going to get through planning a wedding with less than 9 months left til the big day while also being in a different state. While scrolling though instagram I found the answer. Now 2 months post wedding, I can honestly say aside from saying I do! Natasha was the best decision we made.
Since the very first meeting Natasha made it clear that she was here for both my husband and I throughout this process, showing us the importance of compromise when it comes to choosing decor, as well as advocating on our behalf with family and vendors. Natasha went above and beyond to help make our wedding dreams come true. From answering all our questions, creating an easy to use checklist to stay within our timeline and even attending my alteration appointments to make sure my dream dress fit the way I envisioned. Natasha ensured our wedding went off without a hitch and anticipated all our needs (like making sure we ate, stayed hydrated throughout the night and only participated in the events that we found important.
WeddingsbyNatasha is a service I would recommend 1000 times over, every time without hesitation. I can't imagine our wedding day and overall wedding process being so amazing without her help. -

Natasha was amazing form the very moment we met with her. Unfortunately we were one of the 2020 couples that had to cancel our destination wedding and this was our third time rescheduling due to COVID restrictions last year. When we shared our story with her, she made every effort to make us feel comfortable and reassured. Everything on the day of was absolutely PERFECT and Natasha was so sweet, caring, and professional. My husband loved her too! Everything ran on time and Natasha's attention to detail was outstanding. It was so amazing to finally have our big day and we are still on cloud nine. Even our guests are still talking about how beautiful our wedding was, I couldn't be happier with Natasha's services. I shared how much my children and step children meant to me and she got together with them to organize a special moment for me at our wedding ceremony. Let's just say, I will never forget that moment for as long as I live, it was truly the most magical day of our lives. Natasha will always have a special place in our family!
Do yourself favor and RUN don't walk to secure her services. -

A Bride's Best Friend!
I met Natasha at the start of the pandemic in 2020 to assist me with planning my wedding and being my day of coordinator. She was open to all of my questions and knew exactly what I needed to make my day the way I wanted. When others made me feel crazy and insane for planning a 2022 wedding in 2020, she reassured me and executed everything perfectly. She stayed on top of things even when I wasn't. My guests and in-laws absolutely loved her and the job she did on my wedding day. Not only did I gain an amazing wedding planner/coordinator, I gained a lifelong friend. You need a Natasha in your corner for a job done ALL the way right! Thank you for all you do! -

I remember when I first found Natasha, I was scrolling through TikTok and saw her rushing to fix the bride's veil as she walked down the aisle and immediately I said I want her! And it was probably one of the BEST decisions I made for my wedding day. From our first consultation to our messages back and forth to our actual wedding day, she made sure to cover every detail. Sometimes I would think of something and Natasha was already doing it. She has mastered her craft and it was evident throughout the weekend. I'm a pretty organized person but I literally had two weddings back to back and I was overwhelmed and Natasha's presence was the calm to the storm that I needed that day. She is very professional, knowledgeable and passionate and I loved having her because she truly allowed me to enjoy my wedding day. I can't imagine how my day would have gone if I decided to do that on my own. Thank you Natasha for choosing to work with us. At the end of the night, my husband said, "I knew she was the real deal once I saw her applying the oil to your legs lol!" You are the BEST!! -

Antinise D. Sent on 04/09/2022A dream come true!
We started making our wedding plans two years ago, in the thick of the pandemic. With the stress of being newbies when it came to wedding planning coupled with the ups and downs of the pandemic, the future outcome of our special day was uncertain. That all changed when Natasha Civil came into our lives. From the first meeting, Natasha automatically made us feel like we were her main priority. We mapped out our dream wedding and she brought it to life. Natasha is honest, responsible, trustworthy, and above all else, she is incredibly professional. We could go on and on about the positive traits that Natasha embodies because the list is truly endless.
As a creative visionary, Natasha was our number one cheerleader and supporter when it came to making our dreams a reality. We didn’t feel like just another couple on her resume. Instead, we would compare our experience with Natasha to something like the royal treatment. She consistently made time for us to discuss everything from logistics and decor to song selection and cake tastings. Whatever we didn’t think of, Natasha was there to fill in the blanks. We truly appreciated all of the knowledge, experience, and expertise Natasha was able to bring to our wedding planning experience. We weren’t just planning a wedding with Natasha, we were embarking on a fun adventure that only made our excitement and anticipation leading up to the actual wedding date grow.
When our wedding day arrived on March 20, 2022, it exceeded our expectations and we have Natasha’s stealthy behind-the-scenes management to thank for that. She went above and beyond for us to ensure everything ran smoothly with our vendors, the venues, and our wedding party so as to not disturb our wedding day experience. It has been a couple of weeks since our wedding and the compliments haven’t stopped rolling in.
We can not thank Natasha enough for all that she was able to accomplish for us. In the words of the great Tina Turner, ”You’re simply the best, better than all the rest”. You are amazing and an absolute pleasure to work with. Thank you for everything!WeddingbyNatasha's reply:
Mr. & Mrs. Fraser it was such an honor to have been chosen to plan your dream wedding. I will forever treasure all the laughs , texts with gifs (lol) , appointments, and zoom meetings. We are family now!!!! -
