“When you do the Partial Planning package, you are hiring a professional project manager who genuinely cares about your vision and can help guide you to make it a realty. We worked with Krista, who was direct and conversational, making it easy to ask questions and work through decisions together. She was extremely adaptable, staying flexible with our needs like scheduling meetings only after 7pm and helping us understand what's really important and what can be cut when making our Pinterest dreams come true on a budget. Her expertise with contracts and vendor relationships was also extremely helpful— she helped us understand what contract elements were boilerplate and what we needed to push back on. She also helped make sure we were considering the details we didn't even know to worry about, which gave us peace of mind throughout the planning process. The only feedback I have is that the email inbox set up can make it difficult to track correspondence chains, and that we had some issues being cc'ed on all correspondence with vendors early on. There were instances I wished I could shoot over a text to clarify something, but that privilege is reserved for the final month of planning- when things are actually urgent.
On the day of, the coordination brings your dreams to life without you needing to think about anything but marrying the love of your life. Their photography background meant they structured our timeline in a way that helped our photographer capture every moment without us ever feeling rushed. We had a lot of moving parts-- horse and carriage ride, different location for ceremony and first look, full tent flip rain plan, different buildings for both brides getting married, 14 bridesmaids, 4 separate companies for rentals and 2 separate companies for bar and food-- and the Chantilly Lace team made sure everyone knew exactly what our vision was and how to pull it together. We are so grateful we found this team and can't recommend them enough.
