Ashwini P. Sent on 11/19/2023The best decision we ever made!!
We hired Stef to plan our Oct 28 Indian wedding this year, and all I can say is - WOW! Stef went above and beyond our highest expectations, and countless times my husband and I found ourselves asking each other: where would we be without Stef?!
Stef takes "organized" to the next degree. It's so easy to trust her - she's truly thought about every little detail that would never cross my mind, and tracks everything in a way that's accessible and transparent. Somehow she remembers the tiny things I might have mentioned offhand, and literally nothing slips through the cracks. She built trust with us very quickly, and I had such peace of mind throughout the process always knowing - "but Stef's got it covered".
I didn't know what sort of relationship to expect with my wedding planner, but she's exactly what I had hoped for! From the beginning, she's respectful, curious, and clearly passionate about enabling couples to have their dream day. She forms very personal relationships with her clients, and I could reach her via email, text, or a phone call at pretty much a moment's notice. She cares about you and making sure you're happy, and more than once went the extra mile to ensure this for us. Stef also understands family dynamics, and worked closely with my mom directly, and somehow managed to keep us all consistently in the loop.
A wedding is a daunting process, but the right people make ALL the difference. I have no doubt that our wedding would have been a totally different story without Stef to help us navigate through it (and be our voice of reason and support through it) - we are sooo lucky to have found her! I can't recommend Stef enough!! -

Stef is the BEST!
Stef was actually the only planner we interviewed that we didn't have a family/friend/industry reference for and I'm so glad we took a chance on her!
Stef was so knowledgeable and seemed to have answers to every question that came up and rationale behind every recommendation.
She assigned us tasks to complete and work through together with her each month, which helped keep us on track without overwhelming us with a bunch of vendors and tasks early on. Tasks included big items like rentals, flowers, hotel block, but also included small details like bridesmaid gifts, wedding day jewelry, and wedding license! She covered every single detail you could possibly think of! We went through our budget thoroughly with her to determine the best plan that would both accommodate our larger guest count and fulfill the vision we wanted. She had all the cost saving tips and tricks and the BEST vendor recommendations that were a perfect match for us. She reviewed contracts, handled communication and negotiation with vendors, and fully planned out the layout (Tables, chairs, dancefloor, stage, etc) for our venue.
We also had a bunch of crazy ideas that she helped us execute, making our wedding feel very personal and unique. She allows you to be as involved as you want to be, but will also step in to help complete a task as needed along the way. She is so easy going and FUN to be around, which made every meeting fun! I also appreciated her communication as she was usually quick to respond when you have a question and did not hesitate to hop on a call with you.
She understood our vision and helped me execute it perfectly and efficiently without going over our set budget. Everytime I hung up the phone with her I felt a huge sense of relief and peace of mind. I fully trusted Stef and her team and ultimately could not recommend them more! Thank you so much for our amazing wedding day! -

I only have two bits of advise for any couple looking to get married 1) marry the love of your life and 1) hire Stefanie from your wedding your way as your wedding coordinator. If you follow these two bits of advise you will with out a doubt have a better wedding than you ever imagined possible . My husband and I got married while I was in the middle for graduate school and Stefanie worked around my schedule to make sure everything was planned in a way that would not add stress to my husband and I's already busy lives. Stefanie and Joleen made sure that our wedding day was a dream come true. I seriously attribute how great my wedding was to having fabulous coordinators and marrying my best friend! -

Stefanie is just the best! She was really helpful in so many ways, and I knew I could rely on her for everything. I do event management for a living, and I knew I needed someone I could really trust so that I could let go and really enjoy the whole process. Stef lived up to every expectation! The whole process was easy and transparent, and I could be as involved as I wanted. The day of the wedding everything was perfect, and even if something did come up I definitely didn’t even know! She helped with all the big stuff, but even little things too that really made a difference in the end. It’s been a year now since the wedding and I still miss her and remember fondly what a great job she did. -

Erica Sent on 10/08/2014OUR WEDDING WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT STEFANIE!!! I had no idea what went into wedding coordination until this year, and I'm telling you- this is the best thing we could have ever spent our money on. Stefanie and Cara are the BEST. 5 star service, lovable, responsive, professional, confident, experienced and overall amazing. There is no crisis they can't handle, and most importantly, Stefanie helped us finalize a lot of details that we weren't sure about. She gave thoughtful suggestions without any pressure. Stefanie is all about making your wedding the BEST DAY EVER.
I was so stressed out coming into the last months before our wedding. Our services started 30 days out, and Stefanie literally swooped in and took all my stress off my plate. She has every single detail written out to make sure your vision is executed perfectly. There is a diagram created for the floor plan, the table setting, the seating arrangements- you name it. She handled all of my vendors and finalized every detail with them (details like when they will arrive and leave & how much I owed them etc), and SHE EVEN PICKED UP MY MACARON WEDDING FAVORS!!! This is the white glove service I'm talking about here. She's like a fairy god mother!
During the weekend of the wedding, Cara stepped in to handle the ceremony rehearsal and she was fantastic!!! She took charge of a large room of people and got us all informed in less than 45 min. I felt 100% at ease. There was some confusion as to who should sit where since the room was tight, and she handled it so calmly and smoothly. She asked me a few questions and that was it- she had it handled!
The day of the wedding was a dream. Every single detail was perfectly executed. Stefanie is just this beam of sunshine and organization. She has every diagram and spreadsheet on hand to help guide guests -

Alyssa Sent on 03/06/2014Cara at Your Wedding, Your Way is seriously the best of the best. We were in contact throughout my planning process, but there are no words for how flawless the wedding day was. Cara made suggestions when I literally had no opinion about things, but most importantly she made it possible for all of our parents to sit back and relax. She made sure all of our vendors knew where to be at what time, and even spent the ceremony cutting price tags off of wicker balls that I purchased because I totally missed that they were even on there (sorry again, friend). When my husband and I met our parents for breakfast the day after the wedding, both of our moms kept saying how glad they were Cara was there, and they were so glad I went with YWYW as my coordinator. If anything went wrong on our wedding day, I didn't know about it, and that's exactly how it should be! No time for that. I would recommend Cara and YWYW to any bride who just wants to enjoy their big day. Your mom will thank you for it! -
