Overall, there was some good and some bad working with Tara. Cost was reasonable. I wanted the wedding party to sit down for the ceremony. I told Tara this and sent her a diagram of how I thought this could be done. She ignored the diagram at rehearsal and was overall unprepared. She was rude to the officiant and the wedding party during rehearsal as well. For the day of, Tara called vendors and created a day of timeline which was helpful. However, she did not make her timeline align with the photographer’s timeline that was already made which led to some confusion on wedding day. On the wedding day, she was helpful regarding vendors and details of the day, and she frequently asked me if I needed anything.
Tara was such a Godsend!! We couldn't have done it without her! She played such a vital role in our wedding weekend. She was literally 5 steps ahead of us the entire time!! She runs a tight ship and stays on top of every single detail. I highly recommend her, not just for weddings, but for any event. She has plenty of contacts in every industry, and YEARS of experience. Hands down, the best planner I could have asked for! We appreciate her so so much <3
Tara was a fabulous "day of" planner for me, she went so far above and beyond our expectations. If I left our reception dance floor for any reason, she would make sure I was ok, ask if I needed a drink, asked if I wanted my wrap because it was chilly, anything I needed she was there. If we wanted something changed, whether a table moved or a song to be played, she relayed all of our needs to our vendors. Leading up to the wedding she was present for meetings and super encouraging. SO MUCH MORE than just a "day of" planner. We felt so blessed to have her and look forward to planning more parties with her in the future!!!
Tara was our wedding coordinator for our 5/19/18 wedding, and there are not enough wonderful words to describe her! She coordinated our rehearsal, decorated our reception, ensured all vendors were on time (even despite a last-minute ceremony venue change!), assembled and kept to our day-of timeline, gave wedding etiquette advice, and 1,000,000 other things to help make our wedding day more perfect than I ever expected! She is everything you could want in a planner/coordinator, as she is extremely-well organized, detail-orientated, and answers any and all wedding questions in a timely manner. Tara was a God-send for our wedding, as she allowed me to enjoy my wedding day and have a great time with friends and family. She handled all the details with such grace and professionalism, and I recommend her with the highest regards to any bride who needs full planning experience or is just feeling overwhelmed with all the details. I am confident that Tara and ARTP can handle any type and size of event and still provide the same attention to detail that she gave to our wedding day. Thank you Tara!!! -Jon & Erin
Tara was a lifesaver for us! My biggest fear is that something would go wrong on the day of the wedding and I knew we needed a day of coordinator to help make things run smoothly and Tara did just that! Weeks before the wedding she made calls to all of the vendors to verify small details and she created a “Day of Timeline” for us! She was always available for phone calls/ emails and was extremely helpful leading up to our big day! Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful and everything went smoothly. I know Tara was having to run around and answer vendor calls but she made our day so special and worry free!
Tara with Any Reason to Plan made my wedding perfect. I tried to go my whole engagement without a planner, but when too many things piled up, I contacted Tara. She was quick to respond whenever I needed her and was eager to meet and start planning, whether it was big-picture or little details. She asked questions I did not even think to consider, and corresponded with my vendors flawlessly! She made my wedding day a breeze, making sure everything was taken care of behind the scenes, as well as checking in on me constantly. She was not only an awesome and professional planner, but was also a kind and compassionate friend. I loved working with her and would recommend her to anyone.
Tara created check in bags for our guests. They were personalized and turned out wonderfully!
