“Without being hyperbolic, hiring Michaela from OliveOak for full planning was one of the best decisions we have made in our entire lives. My husband and I entered the wedding planning process pretty lost; neither of us had planned a major event before and I was by no means a bride who had a vision for her wedding. When we came to Michaela, all we had was our venue, a date, a rough budget, and a desire for our wedding to be beautiful and fun. We needed a lot of hand holding and support, and thanks to Michaela, our wedding was better than anything we could have ever dreamed.
Michaela's knowledge of the wedding industry is impeccable. She is so well-connected and recommended the best vendors; we truly had an all-star team on our wedding day! Her design skills—also flawless. She fully designed our wedding from scratch and to say her design was beautiful would be an understatement. After our team was booked and our wedding was designed, Michaela continued to shine in her abilities to create a stellar timeline, coordinate vendor interactions, and even manage the tricky interpersonal dynamics that inevitably arise with wedding planning.
Our wedding day itself went perfectly. It ran on time, was beautifully decorated, and was beyond fun. As a bride, there wasn’t a moment I had to worry about anything wedding-related, as OliveOak handled it all.
Most importantly, though, Michaela is a good person, which can be rare to find. She exudes so much warmth and kindness. My husband and I loved our monthly planning meetings with her and are genuinely sad that they are no longer a part of our lives. People like Michaela make the world a better place!
All to say, if you’re reading this, just hire Michaela. You won’t regret it! So many guests told us our wedding was the best event they've ever attended, and that is all thanks to OliveOak.”
