best money I’ve ever spent
Hiring Erika was the best decision we made for our wedding! She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and her calm, organized approach kept everything running smoothly. No matter what challenges came up, she handled them effortlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy our day without any stress. She truly made our vision come to life, and I can’t imagine going through the wedding planning process without her. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, detail-oriented, and an absolute joy to work with, Erika is the one!
Erika is AMAZING
From my very first conversation with Erika, I knew we just clicked. I have planned many events myself, so I really only needed a day-of coordinator, but she truly went above and beyond to take away my stress and to be able to enjoy the process. She was real, friendly, on-point and honest. As we went through the planning process, I loved her even more. She gave me space when I was feeling overwhelmed and couldn't answer tons of emails. She also stepped in and helped with anything I needed along the way. She even picked up our sweetheart table from a Facebook Marketplace seller that was closer to her house than mine! When the big day finally came, I could not have asked for a better coordinator. She ran the show exactly the way we needed it - she was strict with family who were distracted and extremely thorough with all the little details that I had weaved into my wedding. She was funny, focused, and literally EVERYONE loved her. I could not recommend Erika more. The amount of stress she took off my shoulders was priceless, but she is worth every penny - I wish we could work together again! You will not be disappointed if you hire her!
Bride
I can’t say enough great things about Erika! Although we used her as a “day of” coordinator, we spoke so many times for the year prior. She always responded quickly to my questions and requests. Her knowledge and expertise was so helpful when we got stuck or had questions. She went above and beyond in so many ways. She was professional and kept the whole day running perfect, as well as keeping the energy and excitement up. I would recommend Erika to literally everyone.
Must Have
Erika was a saving grace for our wedding day! During our planning we thought we did not need a Wedding Planner since the venue had a coordinator, but so thankful we decided to hire Erika for our day. She was so supportive and positive and when the venue dropped the ball a few times, she stepped up and literally saved the day. We literally couldn't have done it without her. Thank you Erika!
