Sam was absolutely amazing!!

I cannot say enough about Sam - she really was the glue to our day being so stress-free and smooth. You can tell she really cares about the couples she works with and made everything feel personal (versus just another wedding). She included little touches like celebrating our 6 month out date and helped us coordinate all the small details a few months out. On the day of, she ran the day and seamlessly. She pivoted to ensure everything flowed when we had rain during our family photo & cocktail hour, moved dinner up to ensure folks weren't sitting too long and likely made more calls that I'm not even aware of to ensure everything was perfect. Her direction for rehearsal and even things like the grand entrance was so appreciated, we never had to worry because we knew we were in good hands. My husband and family still talk about how awesome Sam was, and as an event professional myself, I can honestly say she was one of our best hires. She was just on top of it and always so calm. I am so grateful to have her be part of our day and would highly recommend her to anyone thinking about hiring her. Thanks Sam!!

Kept everything on track for a perfect day

We cannot recommend Sam strongly enough for wedding services. She was completely on top of making sure everything on our big day was running like clockwork so we could enjoy the wedding of our dreams. We didn’t have to worry about taking time away from our guests to interface with any vendor. She even went so far as to make several excellent suggestions for tweaks to our ceremony during the rehearsal. She is a wonderful person and any couple would be lucky to hire her for their special day

Phenomenal wedding coordination!

We are SO grateful we hired Sam and Wholehearted Events to coordinate our wedding. Sam was absolutely phenomenal to work with. Sam is so organized and detail-orientated, from our first call with her I was put at ease by how intently she listened to our plans and vision for our wedding. Her spreadsheet she used to organize our day made my "type-A" heart so happy! Beyond her genuine listening and care, Sam is so calm and genuine. She brings both a warmth and a great depth of knowledge that helped our wedding day run smoothly. All of our family and bridal party were in awe of how amazing she was!

As a very organized and detail-orientated person myself, I was hesitant to hire a day-of-coordinator. Since I plan events professionally at work, I didn't know if the coordinator would truly be necessary. I am SO beyond glad we did hire Sam. So many little things popped up throughout the day that Sam seamlessly took care of. It was such a blessing to know she was handling it all and it truly allowed my husband and I enjoy our wedding day blissfully. I truly cannot imagine our wedding day without her!

Sam went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect, and we would highly recommend working with her!
