This Is Your Sign to Book DSE

If I could rate 1000 stars, I would! I still have family members and friends talking about the excellent job Dayna and Shanda did and we got married over a month ago!
I interviewed a few other wedding planners before I found out about Dayna and they never felt like a good fit. While (most of them) were friendly, they just never made me feel confident. Then I found Dayna and after the first phone call, she lifted a weight off my shoulders! Talking to Dayna put me at ease and I knew we would be in good hands on our wedding day!
The weeks leading up to our wedding, Dayna was available to answer any questions we had and help us out. We had family drama going on beforehand and she even gave advice on how to navigate that without hurting anyone's feelings. I was also really concerned about our timeline and coordinating that with all of our vendors, I reached out to Dayna and within a few hours she had a timeline for us!
The week of the wedding, Dayna reached out to me several times just to check on me and make sure I was okay and reassured me that everything was going to be perfect!
I can't even explain how fantastic they were on our wedding day. I never got a chance to see all of our decor together before the wedding and I let Dayna freestyle it and she made everything look STUNNING! Dayna checked on me several times throughout the night to make sure I was okay and if I needed anything. She even would catch my eye contact if I needed pulled away from a situation. Their level of professionalism was top notch! I wish I had another event that I could use Dayna and her team for, they were that amazing!

The Best Right Here!

I didn't get to work with Dayna, but Shanda was amazing! After several months of planning, several decorative ideas, and a few hiccups along the way, our day was truly amazing. I personally do not know how these ladies get through these events without pulling their hair out, but I do know that it takes a special kind of person to do this work. It isn't easy, but Shanda and Dayna make it look like a walk in the park! They brought my vision to life and EVERONE stated that it was the best wedding they'd ever attended! So, THANK YOU LADIES for everything that you did to help us pull this off! THE BEST PLANNING SERVICE EVER!

Dayna and team are incredible!

Dayna and her team were a dream to work with! We were really torn on hiring a day-of coordinator, but our venue required same day set up and tear down and we were stressed about how that was going to happen without us or our friends and family having to bear that burden.

In comes Dayna! She made the decision so easy. As soon as we finished our consultation call, we knew we wanted to hire her. She calmed all of my worries throughout the planning process, answered all of our big and small questions, and was such a big help overall. Her team was equally as helpful the day of with decorating and packing everything up at the end. She worked with all of our other vendors and the venue beautifully.

They were truly just so attentive to us and every detail of our wedding and personable and helpful I don't know how we would have pulled our day off without any issues without them.
