Priceless Pick for Your Wedding

If you're debating whether or not to hire a day-of coordinator, I'm here to tell you that you absolutely should. And if you're debating whether or not to hire Tyra, I'm here to tell you that will be one of the best decisions for your wedding day.

My wife and I had the privilege of working with Tyra for our brunch wedding in May 2024 in Washington, DC. Amongst a whole host of unique elements and complexities (abbreviated timeline, partially rented space, three music setups, etc), Tyra was on top of all the details with expertise, warmth, and finesse.

From unlimited check-ins up until the day to taking care of all the vendor communications a month out, the face value of our package with Tyra was unbeatable. But the real value is in Tyra herself, whose presence on our day was truly priceless.

Organized, calming force

Tyra was incredible. We hired her as a day of/month of planner, and she was on top of it from day 1. She was easy to work with, organized, and didn't ever get flustered. She was accessible and responsive, had great advice when we needed it and let us do our thing when we had our own vision.

Simply Amazing

Hiring Tyra was, without question, one of the best choices we made in the lead-up to our wedding.

My (now) husband and I both had a strong vision for how we envisioned the day, but wanted to be able to take it in without fretting about logistics. Then we met Tyra and signed on for her Wedding Management services. We started out with monthly check-ins, where she would track our progress and provide helpful recommendations. We felt immediately comfortable that one of the biggest days of our lives was in the right hands. At a month out, we did a walkthrough of the venue and Tyra connected with our vendors to start taking logistics off our plate. On the day of our wedding, Tyra and her team were amazing.

Little things always go awry on Wedding Day, so having someone on hand to make sure relatives know where they need to be, to troubleshoot when furniture breaks, to hunt down missing shuttles, and to make sure the couple getting married have space to eat makes a huge difference. We were particularly grateful for the enthusiasm and respect she brought to her communications with our vendors. It made a real difference on our wedding day and created a truly warm and positive environment.

Tyra is amazing and we fell lucky we got the chance to work with her.
