Years ago, I was 18, five months pregnant, working part-time, and planning a wedding in three months, with no planner and no clue what I was doing. No one in my family had been married in 20+ years, and I was in pure survival mode. I didn’t get to enjoy it. Years later, I helped friends plan & coordinate their weddings and something clicked, I loved every detail, and I was REALLY good at it. Bay & Barn was created for the overwhelmed, the first-timers, the ones juggling life while planning one of the biggest days of their lives. I didn’t start this business to be fancy. I started it because I get it.

I hired Johnnie to plan a baby shower for my best friend. She was so instrumental when it came to bringing my vision to reality and helped elevate my vision further with her ideas and resources. She was able to source everything that we needed, with a mix of cost-effective party elements and high-end party elements where it counted. She also is an extremely talented floral designer, so it was nice to not have to outsource another vendor for that. The day of, she was at the venue early to make sure everything was set-up perfectly, then broke down/cleaned up everything when we were done with the luncheon. Overall, she took a huge load off my shoulders when it came to everything that needed to be sourced and set-up for this event - I was very much able to enjoy the party and be a proper host, and didn't have to spend my nights and weekends with coordination leading up to the event.

We hired Taylor as a Day Of Coordinator and she was incredibly easy to work with and great at what she does. As a control freak, letting go of all the little details on the day of was so hard to do, but I put our trust in her and she did not disappoint! We had an initial call when I was inquiring (over a year ahead of the wedding), then we had a venue walkthrough close to the wedding date where she took notes and asked questions, had a final call just before to go over any final details, and took my decor photos/notes to ease my mind on how I wanted things to look. The day of, she handled everything and didn’t need me for a thing - coordinated the vendors, set up the decor, and was our main point of contact for everything, broke down everything at the end. We also rented a few items from her that had to be hauled down to the venue. Everything was perfect. I cried when I saw my vision come to life. If you’re on the fence about hiring a Day Of Coordinator, do it! Hire Taylor. She’ll take those tasks off your plate so you can actually enjoy your day. Bonus points because she had to go up and down 70 or so stairs to get to the venue each time! Thank you so much! We are so grateful for your hard work.

They could not have been more dependable, utterly trustworthy, organized, always accessible, and showed great judgement!

Furthermore, during the wedding reception not only did they make sure everything was perfect as we planned, but on the fly they used great judgement to make the reception better by tweaking the arrangement.

Tara and her team are nothing short of incredible. We approached her in the fall with the crazy idea to throw a music festival wedding at the end of June at a riverside park- where we needed her to coordinate 3 bands AND bring in everything from restroom trailers to a food truck to mobile bartending. Not only did she rise to the challenge, but the day was more perfect than we could have ever imagined. She had a plan (and back-up plan!) for everything, and she coordinated with no less than 15 vendors to make sure that we didn’t have to worry about a thing during the wedding. She had a ton of local vendor suggestions, as well, for everything from flowers to misting fans. On top of that, she is a truly lovely human who was a JOY to work with. Many wedding guests even commented to me on how wonderful she is! If you are looking for the perfect balance of love and logistics- you will be thrilled with Engaged Event Management!

Hiring Planned Perfection for partial wedding planning services and working with Danielle was the best decision we made! We had an intimate wedding of around 35 people My husband and I both agree that a wedding planner was still needed and worth it! We needed a smaller venue, and we wouldn’t have known our venue existed without Danielle! Danielle took all my worries away! We knew what we wanted our day to look and feel like, but we were not so great at the implementing part. Danielle was able to guide us through the process seamlessly! She was super responsive and answered all of my million questions! I am not the best with visualizing how a space would look, how many florals would be needed, and color scheme. Danielle has an eye for this, and was crucial in making our day look how we dreamed! On the day of the wedding, I was able to relax! Danielle took care of EVERYTHING. The weather was a little bit iffy in the morning, and she let me know not to worry and she would make the call if the wedding needed to be moved indoors. Our family commented on how well the day flowed and how Danielle had everything under control! If you are on the fence of hiring a wedding planner, DO IT.

Royally Charmed Event Planning was an absolute pleasure to work with at a recent wedding. They were creative in their approach, and thorough in their communication throughout the process. The team pulled together all the details seamlessly, always ready with a smile and quick to respond to any requests I had as the wedding photographer for that day. Denae, was particularly receptive to the special touches I wanted to incorporate as the photographer, ensuring everything came together beautifully for our couples special day.

I cannot imagine our day without the CRC team! We utilized coordination services for the last 4 months and I am SO thankful we had this incredible team. Jenna was always quick to respond and anticipated our needs. Jenna had a form to organize all of our thoughts and worked out the details to mean fewer vendor meetings on our end. She worked seamlessly with our vendors who continuously complimented her to my husband and I. Our guests have told us it was the most organized wedding they have ever been to! This team is clearly full of incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and, most importantly, kindhearted people who made it clear they were there for us and excited for us! Any fires that may have happened, Jenna put out without me even knowing. I would recommend this company to every single newly engaged couple (especially those of you considering not hiring a coordinator -- trust me, you need them!).

Working with Erin Avery (The VenList) was more than a dream - she is a dream maker, fantasy creator, and one of the most organized people we’ve ever worked with. There honestly aren't words that capture the depth of our appreciation for her work. She took us through the whole journey as our virtual planner, guided us through the panic moments, saw the potential in our vision, and as our Day-Of Coordinator ensured we have the most magical wedding we could have ever dreamed up. She respected our budget, never wanted us to compromise on our vision, found vendors who could bring that vision to life, and made us feel like family the entire experience. Erin brings a profound attention to detail, care for us as a couple, calming spirit, and gentle smile to every person she interacts with. She wants you to have your day go smoothly, as stress free as possible, and makes sure that everything is organized, found, and done correctly. We couldn't have asked for a better person to walk us forward into married life, keeping track of every nuance, contacting every vendor, and protecting our time as we approached the biggest and happiest day of our lives. Erin is truly the best and a master at her craft. If you’re considering working with her, that very first meeting you will feel the beautiful energy and excitement she shares for what matters most to you - and she’ll make sure that your day is one you’ll never forget.
