A Must Hire Coordinator

I can’t imagine my wedding day without Marian as my day of coordinator. She was helpful with vendor suggestions and questions and keeping us moving through the planning process. And on the wedding day she was one step ahead of everything through the entire day and night. If things went wrong, I didn’t know because she was working hard behind the scenes. She also made the day fun and light, adding humor to the taking photos in the rain, and stains on dresses. We could not ask for more from Marian, I would regret booking with anyone else for my wedding.

Amazing day!

We used Porch & Pearls for their day of coordination services. Marian was amazing - she was our biggest hype girl on the day! It was so wonderful to have the extra support and not put the burden on our family to make sure the day went smoothly. At the end of the night, she had all of our items packed up and ready to go as we left the venue. She made every step of the day seamless. Leading up to the day, she helped us plan out our vision and coordinate a timeline with our vendor team. I highly recommend Porch & Pearls to anyone planning a wedding!

Marian is a STAR

Marian and the Porch and Pearls team were absolute stars! Our original wedding date was scheduled to take place at the beginning of covid. Everyone's head was spinning at that time. Marian offered support and practical resources as we switched gears. When we decided to do a backyard wedding before our large postponed wedding, she even helped us navigate getting a wedding license (all the courthouses were shut down at the time).

When the time came for our large wedding, we encountered more curve balls...including the day before and day of. We put all of our eggs in the Marian basket to think quickly and adjust where needed. She's a pro! Additionally, she identifed VIPs in our family and treated them as such...I have already started recommending Marian to any and all of my friends getting married.

I'll shout it from the rooftops - have no doubt in hiring Marian!
