Hiring Cindy was one of my biggest regrets in wedding planning. While she came across as experienced and supportive during the lead-up, the actual wedding day was filled with mista...
kes, disorganization, chaos, and a lack of accountability that left us stressed and disappointed.
The most devastating mishap was during the ceremony- my husband’s parents were sent down the aisle without him, forcing him to walk alone to a different song than the one he had carefully and intentionally chose. This once-in-a-lifetime moment was ruined.
After the ceremony, my husband and I were left waiting in a lounge without direction. We were told by her assistant that she would return to help bustle my dress, take my veil, and cue our entrance, but she never came back. I ended up doing our first dance tripping on my gown and tangled in my veil.
The venue setup was another mess. Despite walking through all the details ahead of time, her assistant seemed completely unprepared. My husband had to step in to help set up, and even our florist had to stop her work to assist.
To make matters worse, multiple members of our bridal party later told me they felt disrespected and spoken down to during rehearsal. That’s the lasting impression they were left with.
Perhaps most disappointing of all, when Cindy was made aware of the ceremony mishap on the night of the wedding, she never addressed it with us. A simple acknowledgment would have shown some care or accountability, but we received none. I had reached out to her after the wedding to address these issues, but she largely placed blame elsewhere instead of taking responsibility for what went wrong. Overall, she over promised and under delivered. The day was tainted by her lack of professionalism.
I was highly recommended Cindy not too far away from our wedding and am so glad I took the recommendation. Cindy was an irreplaceable the day of helping with things I couldn’t imag...
ine not having her for. She was my right hand the entire day and made it easy to coordinate everything the day of. She is a breath of fresh air and takes all of your concerns away and is there helping you every step of the way. If I had to do it all over again I would have contacted her immediately and had her help from day 1. I recommend her to any bride, you’ll thank me later.
From the moment we hired Cindy, I knew we were is great hands. She was extremely knowledgeable, thorough and helpful from the beginning. From decor to lighting to logistics, there ...
was not a detail to be missed. Not to mention, she has great relationships with all the NYC wedding vendors, so was very helpful with guiding us both financially and aesthetically. Because of Cindy, our wedding was a complete fairytale out of a magazine. She went above and beyond throughout the planning process. She attended every design meeting, took notes, always took my phone calls and responded promptly to emails. We even had some things to tie up after the wedding and she was still available to help. I can truly say that we would not have been able to have the caliber of wedding that we did if it was not for Cindy. We highly recommend her for your big day!
