    She gave us the gift of being present

    If you’re wondering whether hiring a day-of coordinator is worth it, let me save you the time: hire Erica. From the moment she stepped in, I felt like I could finally breathe. Erica was calm, organized, incredibly kind, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever making anything feel stressful. She kept our timeline moving, coordinated with our vendors, answered questions before they ever reached me, and handled all the little details that most couples never even realize are happening behind the scenes. Because of Erica, my husband and I were able to be fully present and actually enjoy our wedding day instead of worrying about logistics. She anticipated needs before they arose, solved problems quietly and professionally, and made sure everything flowed seamlessly. Our family and bridal party were able to relax because they knew she had everything under control. Beyond being exceptional at what she does, Erica is simply a wonderful person. She genuinely cares about her couples and treats your wedding as if it were her own. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and warm personality made such a lasting impression on us. Looking back, hiring Erica was one of the best decisions we made during the entire wedding planning process. I cannot recommend her highly enough. If you want someone who will advocate for you, keep your day running smoothly, and allow you to soak in every beautiful moment, Erica is the person you want by your side. Thank you, Erica, for helping make one of the most important days of our lives absolutely unforgettable. We are so grateful for everything you did. ShanJay

No, I intentionally take on only one event per week. This allows me to give each wedding the full attention, focus, and level of care it deserves. From final preparations to execution, my priority is being fully present for you and your event, ensuring every detail is handled seamlessly without compromise.
You can expect thoughtful, consistent communication throughout the planning process, with more touchpoints as your wedding approaches. My role is to streamline everything so you’re not overwhelmed with decisions or logistics. As the day gets closer, I take on a more active role, confirming vendors, finalizing details, and building your timeline. On your wedding day, I’m fully present, managing every aspect so you don’t have to. The goal is simple: you enjoy your engagement and are fully present on your wedding day, while I handle everything behind the scenes.
Yes, I do. In addition to weddings, I also plan and coordinate events like bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, and welcome parties. These celebrations are an extension of your wedding experience, and I approach them with the same level of care, organization, and thoughtful design to ensure everything feels cohesive and seamlessly executed.
You’ll work directly with me, Erica (Em), the owner of The Plan x Em, from start to finish. I’m your main point of contact throughout the entire planning process, and I oversee every detail to keep everything cohesive and stress-free. On your wedding day, I may bring trusted assistants depending on the size of your event, all fully briefed and managed by me behind the scenes.
