“Sasha Voronova and the Smooth Sailing Team is by far the best decision we made for our wedding this past October (Co-Planning Package). From the professional consultation to the post-wedding lunch date (where we got to gush over everything all over again, including videos and pictures Sasha took of our wedding day!), Sasha was warm, fun, and so incredibly helpful! She put us at ease and made planning this big event not only fun, but what felt like a breeze. She had spreadsheets galore to support every phase of planning, making it very approachable to review vendors, track expenses, and explore resources and websites for anything we needed or were interested in researching on our own. Using her co-planning package, we were routinely impressed with Sasha's professional preparedness blended with her creativity to shape our vision for our wedding, without pushing her own agenda.
As is common for throwing a wedding during hurricane season, we needed to go with our "indoor plan" due to the weather. Even though we had picked a venue that had an easy and spacious option for an indoor plan (Jennette's Pier), it was not what any of us wanted. However, Sasha met with us a few days before the wedding and had come up with the most magical plan that included flipping the room from a traditional ceremony set-up to the reception area (which she pulled off in 12 minutes!). She did this all without sacrificing the beauty we envisioned for both parts of our wedding or without disrupting the flow of cocktail hour or our guests experience. Looking back we are still in such awe of her vision, direction, and calm presence to make it all happen. Outside of the stress that comes with "how do we stay dry in this?!" we never felt a moment of stress or anxiety as we moved through the day. She had even planned a special-surprise for us as we arrived at the venue based on something she learned about us in getting to know us.
Sasha is a DELIGHT to work with and you would be lucky to have her as your planner. We are lucky to get to call her our friend now.”
