Susie was so helpful as our day of coordinator.

She made the morning before the ceremony so stress-free. We were able to have everything we needed set up before guests arrived, and it was perfect. she helped keep the flow of the day on time, our officiant was late but she was able to keep things moving and not let it push the rest of the day out too far. She understood what we needed and wanted and made it happen. We are so thankful for her being a big help on our big day!
