Maggie saved my wedding!

Maggie is amazing at what she does and I HIGHLY recommend her! She is VERY experienced in the wedding world with vendors, venues, down to the details you wouldn't think of! Example, I needed a last minute photobooth due to unforeseen circumstances. Last minute as in, 5 days before our wedding. Maggie gave me a name, I contacted them and VOILA! They were available AND they were AMAZING! Customer service and satisfaction are important to Maggie, and that is what I loved about her, as well as her passion for what she does! I would totally use Maggie again for future events! Thank you again for everything!

Maggie is the best!

My wedding was absolutely perfect thanks to her. She helped me to organize and confirm all vendors and ensured that everyone was on track for the big day. She asked questions to vendors that I would never have thought to ask and that were very important in order to ensure the day went smoothly. She also created a very detailed timeline that helped to keep all vendors and wedding party members on track. On the day of my wedding she smoothed over all the final details and I was able to completely enjoy my day without missing out on any of the fun! I didn’t have to worry about dealing with any vendors or any questions or issues that came up throughout the day Maggie completely took control so I didn’t miss a single minute of my big day and was able to spend all my time with friends, family, and husband!! I had the best day ever and my wedding was beautiful and even better than I imagined. Thank you so much Maggie!!

Maggie was fantastic!

I was in a wedding this past November and she did a fantastic job! Her organization and professionalism put the bride at ease and made the whole rehearsal and wedding day run so smoothly. I would highly recommend Maggie for your special day!
