About Ivory & Sage Weddings
Ivory & Sage Weddings
I graduated in 2018 with a bachelor’s degree in business management, and throughout college I received certifications in marketing, event management and advertising. I absolutely love my job and all the challenges that come with it, and I feel I’ve been thoroughly prepared for anything that could be thrown my way. I started this company in January of 2020, when I started planning a friend's wedding and realized my passion wasn't just event planning, it was wedding planning. I took the time to train and understand different types of weddings, so that I can make sure my job is done right the first time.
I take pride in making sure that a job is done right the first time, not the second or third. My brides will never have to wonder if something was taken care of, or if they forgot anything on one of the most important days of their lives. If you had to worry about a single thing other than your future husband, I haven’t done my job right.

The only negative thing of my wedding day
I wish I had hired someone else to be my wedding decorator. Her team was incredibly under prepared, equipment unused. Team members of her didn't decorate our ceremony site at all, leaving my coordinator team to do so. Many of my rented items were left unused and wasted all that money on decor. " Family moments were missed because our own family was setting up due to her team's lack of equipment, drive and timing. I would not recommend this to anyone, but I'm so grateful to our family and other vendors for filling in the gaps of where her team lacked.

Do not recommend
We hired Meaghan to provide wedding decorating services. One of the primary reasons we selected her company was because our venue required all vendors to be properly insured. Her scope of work included installing disco globes above the dance floor, hanging greenery vines on pillars and beams, and assisting with the setup of florals and candles for the reception tables, ceremony aisle, and cocktail area. Unfortunately, the setup process did not go as expected. Upon arrival, Meaghan was not present and instead sent members of her team, who did not bring a ladder capable of completing the installations. As a result, they were unable to begin work and stood idle for approximately an hour while a member of their staff went home to retrieve a ladder. Even then, the ladder was not tall enough to safely complete the job. At that point, rather than providing the proper equipment, Meaghan's team had my nephew climb the ladder and assist with hanging six of the thirty disco globes, commenting to him that if he loved his cousin (the groom) he would help. This was extremely concerning, as it violated venue requirements and raised questions regarding compliance with the insurance coverage that was one of the primary reasons we hired a professional decorating company in the first place. It also created an unnecessary safety risk for a family member who was not part of her staff. We expected a professional, insured vendor to arrive fully prepared with the necessary equipment and personnel to complete the contracted work safely and efficiently. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. She did have one member of the team that went above and beyond in helping set up the dining area. Her effort, attention to detail, and willingness to assist wherever needed were appreciated and helped ensure that portion of the event came together beautifully. I believe it is important to acknowledge her hard work, even though the overall experience fell short of our expectations. Instead of accepting that she fell through on what she was contracted for she kept bringing up things to point out that her staff helped load a few things and that it wasn’t in the contract. Well it was the least they could do since the ceiling instillation was horrible. And they did it and we did not ask for the help. We ended up doing most of the work to just get something done.

My only regret was hiring Ivory & Sage
I wish I had looked at reviews and done a proper internet search before booking with Ivory & Sage weddings. I resonate with the reviews where Meghan did not show up to our wedding, and did not notify us that she would not be present. We only found out the day of or wedding from the additional coordinator that “Maegan usually doesn’t come to the small weddings”. Which was strange because she ordered food from the venue at our final walkthrough for herself and an assistant, which makes it seem like she was planning to be there. The substitute coordinator luckily showed up but without an assistant, didn’t know about us or our day and dropped the ball multiple times, was rude to our guests and the venue staff. My biggest regret about our wedding day ultimately was hiring Ivory Sage. We hired for a month of coordinator, and though there was a “reach out at anytime” stance we found Meghan hard to reach and unresponsive. We hired a month of coordinator didn’t even get our original coordinator the day of. So if you choose to used Ivory Sage just book a day of coordinator package and cross your fingers. And do a thorough internet search before booking.

Amazing !
Meagan was amazing! We booked her for day of coordination plus set up and tear down. Maegan was super helpful in the planning process with helping us with our timeline and working through the nitty gritty of the day. Even with the ice storm that hit 2 weeks before our wedding when timelines and other items were due she worked to get us what we needed to send our vendors. Day of our florist sent us boutonnières that were completely wrong and couldn’t be used without ruining the vision of the day. Maegan handled this amazingly and was able to pivot and make some boutonnières out of faux flowers we had for our centerpieces. And I am so thankful for her handling this so well and providing me with solutions so I didn’t have to figure it out! The day flowed smoothly because of her and she was always there for support when we needed her.

Day of Coordination 10/10!!!
Ivory & Sage Weddings, led by Maeghan Davis as our day of coordinator, was a wonderful support throughout our two-day multicultural wedding. Maeghan brought a calm, organized, and reassuring presence that made a big difference for us. She helped keep everything moving smoothly and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy each moment. We had our Catholic nuptial mass which she was able to help keep us on timeline and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Then the second day, we had our Nigerian traditional. This can be intimidating for some but she handled big personalities and a big event with such grace. Ivory & Sage was also able to provide a beautiful charcuterie and basic florals for us, it was so nice to get things with one vendor. I believe she also offers decor. We’re very thankful for her support and would happily recommend Ivory & Sage Weddings to couples looking for a thoughtful and dependable coordinator. 10/10!!!
