An Affair to Remember by Sharon

places, on time, etc, etc. Sharon provided just that, kept everything in line, and helped ensure the day went off without problem!

my wedding, and honestly, just the thought of all the decisions I would have to make made me slightly nauseated. From the first meeting when we discussed general thoughts on the wedding, I knew Molly would be super knowledgeable and helpful. She was very good at keeping me organized and ON BUDGET. She has an incredibly detailed Planning Program which allowed me to see both the big picture and to pick just the things that need to be done by a certain date. The week and day of the wedding, she was so organized and prepared! I was unaware of anything going awry, and to this day, if anything wasn’t exactly right, I don’t know about it. I really can’t say enough about how great she was to work with, and she truly made my wedding day a relaxing and fun day. Thank you Sharon!

and allowed us to really enjoy our important night. Thank you so much Sharon.

g fanned, so I kept cool, to facilitating the pictures, so that we could get back in the limo to cool off, I can't say enough! So thankful we had a coordinator for our day! Best Decision ever!

iding advice and recommendations and followed up on all the details. It was the best experience imaginable. Sharon is a knowledgeable professional event planner. I highly recommend her for your special occasion.

owledgeable. I was having a hard time finding a venue due to wanting a liquor-free reception. Sharon pointed me in the direction of the perfect venue. Same with photographer. Ditto for most of my other vendors, with whom I was so pleased. If I had a question, she had a prompt answer. She helped me keep track of everything that needed to be done through the year leading up to my wedding. On my wedding day, EVERYTHING was completely smooth. If there were any issues from the time the ceremony started to the time the reception ended, she handled them quietly and efficiently because from my perspective as the bride, everything went off without a hitch. I was so worried, but I had no reason to, because I had Sharon. I am so grateful for all her help and cannot speak anything but positively about her and my experience.

n order. She set up a hotel block for our guests and when we noticed some of our guests had booked outside of our block because their triple A discount was a better price then our block Sharon took charge and told us not to worry and she would take care of it. That was an understatement Sharon called and got the hotel to agree to give everyone the discount and not let the numbers affect our block so we didn’t get charged extra. The day before the wedding Sharon also told us that if there were any issues or little hiccups to go straight to her and she would take care of it and our only job for that day was to enjoy each other and the day itself and she delivered!

hing and didn’t know where to turn. Thankfully, we found out about Sharon from one of our friends weddings and decided to utilized her services. From begin to end she was such a big help. She help recommend businesses who could help with everything from the flowers to venues and even our officiant. Many of which we would have never know about from anyone else. When meeting with the vendors she was very thorough and made sure they were giving us the best deal and make sure they met our expectations. We would meet with her on a regular basis to make sure we were on track and make sure we had everything taken care of. Then the day of the wedding came and it was like we didn’t need to think of anything. Her and her assistant would tell us exactly where we need to be, when we needed to be there and what to do. People talk about the wedding day being stressful and that is something I could say I never felt. The day went flawlessly and had many guest say that “ it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to” we had a great time and would recommend her services to any couple who is preparing to get married. Bruce

helped us know what we needed to get from each vendor, and was always in our corner helping us along the way with timelines and what things we should have done by what time. On the day of our wedding neither my wife or I had to worry about a single thing because Sharon handled everything. I would definitely recommend using Sharon as your wedding planner if you are getting married in the area.

g a wedding. During the last six months of wedding planning I had a handful of people keep asking are you stressing yet. My response would also be nope, not yet. I caught myself waiting for the day I would finally answer YES, I'm so stressed. I've heard stories of brides stressing out and I just thought that is part of the package of getting married. Well that stress never came and that is all thanks to Sharon. Sharon was worth every penny. From 2 years out to the big day Sharon was there every step of the way. The day of the wedding went so perfectly and I literally didn't have to worry about a thing. Sharon and her assistant went as far as making sure my husband and I were well hydrated during our 2 hour photo session. It felt so good knowing Sharon was there incase anything were to go wrong. I would recommend her for your big day if you want to have a worry free, stressful free, amazing day. My husband and I can not thank her enough for how "easy" she made our special day for us.

so knowledgeable. Everyone we worked with was a dream and it was thanks to her! Sharon handled everything and I was so calm in the months and weeks leading into our big day. We were from out of state in CT and hardly had to make any trips to PA everything went off without a hitch despite her facing many many challenges from family dynamics, to the distance and more she handled each one with professionalism and grace. I have a chronic illness and keeping low stress levels for me is key. In the last year I had been seriously ill and she managed everything above and beyond my expectations. My wedding was a dream come true!!!!

e detail to make our special day run smoothly. The day of our wedding I could sit back, relax and truly enjoy our magical day. I would highly highly recommend her.

mails over 10+ months, gave us great advice, helped us pull off the perfect look and feel for our intercultural wedding, and made sure everything ran smoothly on our big day! One thing I particularly noticed during the planning process was how much our other vendors liked and respected her. As soon as they heard we were working with Sharon, they said, "Oh, then you are in great hands!" And we were. She is extremely organized, competent, kind, and has a great sense of humor -- all qualities that matter when you are working with someone who is helping you plan the most important day of your life! The only regret I have is not booking her full wedding package - she is that awesome! If you're planning a Poconos wedding, lock down your date with Sharon as soon as possible! It will be one of the best wedding decisions you make!

nth Of" services, and we were extremely happy with the results. We had multiple phone conversations in which Sharon compiled all of our vendor information and then put together a comprehensive timeline, identifying a ton of small details that we hadn't even thought of. She was also a great liaison between our band and our caterer, both of whom had strong ideas about the timing and progression of the reception. From making sure the ceremony proceeded perfectly, to details as small as ensuring the location of props for our first dance, Sharon ensured that everything went off without a hitch. We were also impressed by her commitment to ensuring a total lack of stress from our perspective-- she insisted that we did not have our phones so that we could fully immerse ourselves in the moment. I'd highly recommend Sharon: the peace of mind she provides on one of the most important days of your life cannot be overstated!

e did a wonderful job! She kept my daughter moving along so seamlessly that everything fell right into place! She worked well with all of the vendors and we couldn't have asked for anymore, her services were more than worth the investment! We loved her and her staff! Thanks Sharon, you will definitely be referred by us.

together. They hired Sharon one month before the event and she stepped in and worked very hard to make sure the day came off without a hitch. She was extremely professional and everything down to the last detail was perfect! They were very pleased with everything she did to make sure their day was hassle free and more peaceful and fun for them than they ever expected. their own wedding at our farm. They secured all the vendors well in advance, but did not have someone to tie everything together.

have had it any other way. She was organized, efficient and is extremely good at what she does. We met face to face multiple times, site visit, lots of email communication, she helped set up rentals the day before, ran the rehearsal and made the wedding day an absolute success. If there were any problems I had no idea and everything looked amazing and everything went smoothly thanks to Nicole. I definitely recommend Sharon for your weddings!

ure all the vendors had what they needed, answering questions, making timelines, etc. Everything I could have wanted in a planner she was. She got everything done perfectly.

oughout the whole process. Sharon pointed us towards the right direction so that we wouldn't be overwhelmed on our wedding day. She made sure everything was taken care of so that we could enjoy our day. Sharon and her team were the best investment my wife and I made to make our wedding day fun, enjoyable, and memorable!

nce and advice with vendor selection and planning made navigating every step of planning seamless to navigate and each meeting and email with her so enjoyable. She also went above and beyond helping us find an uncommon feature for our reception and truly always puts her clients' best interests first. Sharon and her team made everything run so smoothly the day of the wedding too so all we had to focus on was enjoying every part of the day. I highly recommend An Affair to Remember and their amazing wedding planning services.

de about our wedding. My husband suggested me to hire a wedding planner and finally, he found out Sharon. Thank you for all you did to help make our wedding day perfect. Because of you, everything went smoothly. Although she lives in Catasauqua and our wedding was in NJ but she still came there for us. She went NJ several times and assisted in everything and paid attention to every detail. She suggested good wedding related websites, suggested vendors and offered a lot of ideas and kept me on schedule. She is very organized and very detail oriented and she reminded me everything that I needed to do. Because of her, we didn’t need to worry about our wedding and everything went perfectly and smoothly. I would highly recommend Sharon to everyone!

edding went very well. We had no stress, zero worry. She planned everything for us several months ahead. All of my friends asked me how I was so calm before the wedding. I just smiled since I trusted Sharon. The wedding was absolute fun. Our wedding was in New Jersey and Sharon still came there for us. The best decision I made about my wedding was calling Sharon. You must get her too.

er vendors that we used in our wedding! I could not have been a more relaxed bride on the big day and my husband absolutely loved her! I would recommend Sharon to anyone looking for a professional and efficient wedding planner, be it for the day of or as a full wedding planner!

ing extremely unorganized and difficult to work with, we went through 4 different venue coordinators during our planning process. After the first one left and we were having so many issues with the second, that is when we decided to hire our own day-of coordinator, Sharon. Funny thing is when I was looking on theknot.com for a coordinator based on reviews, she showed up as 5-star and I realized that I knew her! I swam with her daughter in high school and I've known Sharon since I was 14 years old. I knew she would be perfect for the job! Sharon was extremely helpful not just during the day but also during the entire planning process. One of the first things she did was look through our vendor contracts. She pointed out important details that I've overlooked like that we didn't have the photographer for long enough to cover our day which led to us extending. She listened to our issues and attended our final meetings with the venue. She was there for us when our 3rd venue coordinator decided to leave 2 months prior to our wedding re-assuring that things would be ok. She immediately was on the phone with the owner and had a meeting setup right away to discuss a path forward. After meeting with the owner who was extremely grumpy and difficult, Sharon had secured a second assistant to help her to make sure our day went smooth. We were faced with the horrible forecast of rain. Sharon had independently facilitated the rehearsal in our Plan B inside ceremony room. She walked everyone through the ceremony including where they would need to sit. She even advised what to do if there were complications, like the flower girl not walking down the aisle. The day of the wedding, it was a complete downpour in the morning. Sharon was ready bright and early at the ceremony site (anticipated to be inside due to the rain) and was there to witness the owner denying our use of the inside room due to fire code the morning of the wedding a half hour before we needed to decide. She immediately came to my room to give me the awful news so I could cry it out before I had my makeup on and we could figure out what to do (our venue coordinator wasn't even there yet). Once it sunk in that we were going to have the wedding outside in the rain, Sharon immediately started contacting all of the vendors and letting them know. She had her assistant get umbrellas at the dollar store for our guests, made sure all of the chairs were wiped down, figured out where the DJ could put the speaker out of the rain so we could still have music and even worked it out with one of our guests that the bridal party could hide in their room to keep us in secret until the ceremony start time! We got very lucky that we only had a mist rain happening but without Sharon, we would have been in trouble! I also wanted to note that her assistants Yamelissa and Amy were fantastic. Amy drove me around the wedding site in her car so I wouldn't have to walk in the rain. Yamelissa got me drinks and food during cocktail hour. Even though I had showed tons of people how to bustle my dress, no one was around to do it for me and sure enough Amy and Yamelissa bustled my dress with no issues! Sharon and Amy together setup my DIY photobooth with turned out amazing! Very highly recommend Sharon and her team!

such peace of mind knowing that she has been in the event planning industry for so many years and knows so many other vendors. My big day turned out perfectly and ran so smoothly I actually got to enjoy it instead of wondering if we were running on schedule or if the centerpieces got fininshed. Thank you to A Good Affair for making my dream day a reality!

ance. Everything turned out Super! We had alot of details to worry about and she managed to pull it off without a hiccup! The weather was hot, but you were cool as a cucumber. Thanks for everything Sharon, we loved working with you!

at all. My family and I and my husband Joe were able to just enjoy our day and not have to worry about anything and have fun! Thanks Sharon, anyone getting married, should definitely have you on their side!

smoothly because of her. She took care of everything. All we had to do was show up and have the best day of our lives!

. Additionally, she was accessible and present from the planning up through the ceremony and festivities. We would highly recommend coordinating your big day with Sharon.

d not just running on time but early! We had plenty of time to relax, which allowed us and our parents to stay cool, calm and collected. To think I was hesitant to hire a planner and now, so thankful that I hired you. You were well worth the investment! Our guests couldn't stop complimenting us on how beautiful it all was. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You did make our wedding "An Affair to Remember

rganized and works well with new vendors and venues. Sharon's partner Jim is also wonderful, he was kind and courteous to everyone he interacted with at my wedding. I couldn't have asked for a better adviser and day of coordinator!

dination, and rehearsal implementation. Worth every penny! But perhaps the most valuable thing Sharon and her team brings is their ability to be personable, sincere, and supportive at all times. Whether dealing with vendors, or well-meaning family members, having someone ON your side AT your side really makes a difference as the big day draws near. Having Sharon to rely on really eases the pressure so you can enjoy and relish the once in a lifetime moments!!

we could have possibly planned or hoped for and we couldn't have done it any better. Thanks Sharon, you did everything asked and were so easy going and informative, best of the best! Thank you.

the vendors we used and pulled it all together! I can't believe it. Thanks again!

took care of everything. I told her my vision and she executed it flawlessly. She work with my vendors and the venue to to make sure they knew the expectation. I enjoyed our wedding because I had complete faith in Sharon. Best money I spent!

he really things of just about everything which can be extremely stressful when trying to manage your work and personal life as well as a wedding but it does pay off to be prepared in the long run. The day of the wedding went seamlessly and i did not have to worry about anything which is the most important part of having a wedding planner. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner.

know the answer she would find it. Sharon would remind me of what was due and what I needed to have done by certain dates. She was a great help the night before and the day of the wedding. I did not worry about one thing ( I knew Sharon and her assistant had it all under control). I would definitely recommend her to any brides to be. I can honestly say I had a stress free wedding. Thanks again Sharon

instantly knew that having her for the month prior would be helpful. Planning most of the wedding from Miami and having the ceremony at a public park made having a point-person extremely helpful that day. Especially considering extraneous factors that I didn't anticipate like weather and the fact that the park had actually double-booked the space that day. Sharon jumped to action and my guests had no clue that we narrowly avoided a major problem. There's no doubt that our day would have been a mess without Sharon who was meticulous and concerned herself with details so that me, my family, and friends were able to focus on celebrating. Thank you Sharon- you did a great job!!

erer, I really hope to work with her in the future. she has become so much more than a wedding planner to us.

ur to-do list. She and her assistant made sure that everything ran smoothly the day of our wedding and everything was taken care of so we had no worries. I would recommend Sharon to anyone looking for a full planner or a day-of coordinator.

rfect. But attaining this kind of magical day, we would need some else's guidance. After reading a number of reviews, we contacted Sharon Dickinson at An Affair To Remember. Being a gay couple, we never know what kind of reaction there might be. Without hesitation, Sharon learned of our plan and embraced fully what would lie ahead! At our first meeting(and from that point forward), Sharon was a very effective "middle person" between us and Vendor's. She was always available when questions or issues arose. This was invaluable to us and alleviated so much stress. Because our wedding was at our home, we felt additional pressure. When it comes down to it, planning for a wedding is very complex and delicate at the same time. Sharon did an excellent job of threading that needle. She had the necessary contacts, while always listening to our wishes and desires. We are so grateful to her and her team for their contribution, making our special day beautiful and memorable!! Thank you Sharon for everything! Mark & Brian

reception. Everything went perfectly. I have never seen a wedding that did not have some kind of a hitch or bump on the wedding day.. if there was one we never saw it,,,Sharon took care of everything. Everyone who was there had nothing but great compliments about the entire affair. At first I asked my daughter why she would need a wedding planner... now I know. If you want everything to run like clockwork get a wedding planner.. and I recommend Sharon above all. My daughter has already recommended Sharon to her friends that are getting married next. Mother of the Bride Maryann Minnella

on was there for her making sure the day was "just perfect". She is the easiest vendor to work with, professional, friendly, never complained, and we had a large wedding(185 total) with a large bridal party(almost 20) She kept the entire day running very smoothly and very organized. We weren't just on time for everything, we were ahead of schedule all day. We enjoyed the night so much, I didn't want it to end. I Absolutely would say yes to hiring her for her services.

ed to do it. Besides, I reeealllly didn't want to be bothered at my own wedding every few minutes with picky stuff. Ladies, this was the best money spent. Even leading up to the wedding, I still wasn't sure I'd done the right thing. However, a very stressful 2 weeks before the wedding and the eddinf itself, Sharon was an IMMEASURABLE help to make the day go smoothly and allay any fears and last minute challenges. She went above her contracted duties and made sure my day was the best it could be. There was no way I'd have been able to pull off all the planning and put it into a smoothly running timeline. And make everyone stick to it! We all would've been late to my own wedding. She did it all though and seamlessly at that. Hire her, she's fabulous!
