Awarded Best of Zola
“Where do I even begin with Sarah?! I truly cannot put into words how AMAZING she and her team were throughout this entire experience. From day one, Sarah was there for me. Throughout an entire year of wedding planning, she stayed in constant communication, answered every single question I had (and never once made me feel like any question was a dumb one), and handled everything with so much patience, poise, professionalism, and class. But wedding day?! Sarah was quite literally EVERYTHING for me. She made sure everything happened exactly when and how my husband and I wanted it to. Any surprise, hiccup, or last-minute change that came her way, she handled it so gracefully that half the time we didn’t even know there was an issue — and THAT is exactly what you want on your wedding day! Not only was she an incredible coordinator, but she officiated our ceremony beautifully as well. She truly wore every hat and made sure we could simply enjoy our day without worrying about what was happening behind the scenes. Our wedding party, family, and guests are STILL talking about how amazing Sarah and her team were and how smoothly everything went. That alone speaks volumes. Sarah, THANK YOU will never feel like enough. Thank you for being there through the planning, for listening to us, advocating for what we wanted, keeping everything together, and helping make our wedding day everything we imagined it would be. You were such a huge part of making our day so special, and I will forever be grateful that we chose I Got a Love Jones Events. If you are looking for a coordinator/officiant who genuinely cares about her couples and will handle your day like it’s her own — BOOK SARAH. PERIOD. 10/10 — I would choose her all over again!”
