Creations By Collis

one should have Sherri Collis of Creations by Collis at their wedding!

to replan a wedding I spoke with Sherri the first week of February and knew she was the girl for the job! We just clicked; she listed to me let me vent and assured me it was possible and that I did and she was off.. together we found the perfect Dj, photographer, etc. I didn’t have to do much of anything but answer a few questions and she took off with my vision and I had the most perfect wedding.. oh yea she was also the officiant (bonus)and she delivered our ceremony beautifully was short sweet, funny and intimate! And I can’t forget what her and her team pulled off for my wedding decor... beautiful (exactly what I imagined and more). Extremely organized and professional and she made sure we were within Covid guideline nonsense. With that said RECOMMEND Sherri and her team.

S (!!!), and I can honestly say that hiring them was one of the easiest choices we made. Creations by Collis did a great job giving us all the creative freedom we wanted but also providing much needed advice when it came to event planning. We rented a lot of our wedding decor from them, too... table runners, tents, etc. It worked out so well because at the end of the wedding we didn't end up with a lot of extra decor we didn't know what to do with! Sherri was excellent at meeting and answering my questions (at any time... I mean ANY time) and she was always available to help me navigate challenges that arose. They set up and decorated the entire wedding with extreme attention to detail and made sure it was exactly what we asked for. When we walked in, it was an absolute fairy tale. We are also a very COVID conscious couple with many COVID conscious guests. Sherri's team made sure that every table and chair was spaced according to COVID guidelines and placed masks and sanitizer around the venue. The feedback we have gotten from our wedding was that everyone felt SAFE and comfortable and we have Sherri's team to thank for that. They even officiated our wedding with a beautiful customized ceremony that meant so much to us; we will look back on these memories for years to come! Sherri and her team also coordinated with all the vendors so the bride and groom weren't the ones fielding the questions in the weeks leading up to the wedding. One of the things we appreciated the most was the CLEAN UP!!!! The wedding day is beautiful but also stressful and hectic, and the last thing you want to do (trust me) is stay late at the venue to clean up... or come back at the crack of dawn the next morning to clean. Sherri's staff had everything cleaned and placed neatly in bins so all we had to do is load the car with the bins the next morning and leave. It was a huge relief!! A wedding is a big day in your life. There are a LOT of moving parts and it takes a village! Let Sherri and team be your village. You won't regret it.

throughout the wedding process. Sherri was incredibly knowledgeable around ongoing COVID-19 regulations and often provided us with reassurances and updates when they were happening. Sherri was always highly responsive and worked to make herself available right up until we walked down the aisle. Sherri was able to take our vision and create a breathtaking evening for us and our guests. Throughout the evening, guests continuously complimented us on the energy and décor of the space as well as the overall kindness of Sherri's staff. I will forever shout from the rooftops to hire a day-of-coordinator! Sherri and the team at Creations by Collis made an uncertain time into an unforgettable weekend.

feel calm and at ease about making our wedding day the best it could be. Sherri and her staff were punctual, organized, and incredible communicators. Sherri made me feel comfortable and confident while planning my wedding, it didn't feel like we were strangers at all! I would absolutely recommend Creations by Collis to help with wedding planning!

ding we didn’t have to worry about a thing because of all of Sherri’s wonderful planning. I would hire her and her team again in a heartbeat!

was even more challenging, but Sherri thought of every detail, was up to speed on all regulations, and was an amazing emotional support throughout the process. When our wedding day arrived she and her team were punctual and extremely professional. She was able to run the show without me or my husband having any idea of the behind-the-scenes coordination so that we were able to relax and focus on enjoying the day. I highly recommend Sherri and the Creations by Collis team!

verything flowing so perfectly. They really helped ease my mind in such a stressful time.

the park!! Her planning expertise and knowledge of local vendors allowed for an easy planning experience. She utilizes a wedding planning software program that is extremely comprehensive and ensures you are not missing a thing. Her consistent communication and follow up was appreciated and very thorough. We signed up for her additional planning services that included rehearsal dinner, Sunday Brunch, and cleanup. By hiring Sherri and her team to assist us with these events and clean up, it allowed us to enjoy the weekend without having to worry about a thing. The day of the wedding Sherri's staff oversaw our event with friendly smiles and professional attitudes. They ensured a smooth flow of our event, allowing us to be fully present in the day. Thank you to Sherri and her fabulous team for making our daughter's wedding weekend stress free and amazing! I can't recommend them highly enough!

ow much work she put into making our day amazing.

ow much work she put into making our day amazing.

. For a bride, having absolutely nothing to worry about on her wedding day is just the best feeling in the world. We are so grateful to Creations by Collis for everything!!

sited twice so Sherri helped a lot with set up questions I had. She was always there when I needed her but she wasn't overly controlling and gave you space to plan the way YOU wanted to plan. She really cares about her brides and will do anything she can to make sure your day is beyond special. Longlook Farm was my dream venue and having Sherri come with that venue only made it better!

s not nervous at all, we have Sherri! She is so organized and thoughtful of all the details, right down to the directional signs to direct guests to the out of the way camp on the shore of Lake Winnipesaukee! We did not have to worry about set up, or lift a finger, which was so relieving as we had out of town guests and a rehearsal dinner to attend to. The day of the wedding her team was more than professional in their guidance and making sure we stayed on schedule, pulling safety pins out of their pockets, and all the while staying behind the scenes in a way that we hardly knew they were there. When the reception ended, they were right there to clean up and we could all relax and enjoy the fire, or a good night's sleep! Creations by Collis is a must for any bride that wants to enjoy her day to it's fullest!

r. Her warmth and kindness shined through our phone call and made me feel extremely comfortable. She is professional, detail-oriented, and so easy to work with. If I were to get married again, I would love to have her as my coordinator. It was a pleasure to meet Sherri and I look forward to collaborating with her in the future!

uples we know who were also planning weddings around the same time talked about the stress they felt trying to get everything done, but we couldn't relate. We knew Sherri had us covered. She always showed up to meetings on time and had a plan for decor before we could even begin to form an idea. I am a very indecisive person and didn't have an exact idea of what I wanted, I simply showed Sherri my Pinterest board and discussed the look I was going for and she NAILED it. Everything was perfect, beautiful, and she was able to define the undefined image I had in my head. And the best part? We did very little as far as decor and coordinating went. Sherri contacted everyone who needed to be there (DJ, Photographer, Bartender, etc.) and our day-of coordinator (a Creations staff member) got them where they needed to be. Additionally, everything that Sherri set up, she and her team took down, so we were left with little clean up as well, which was fantastic! Hiring Creations By Collis will be the best wedding planning decision you make.

e on ideas I already had. Throughout the wedding weekend, she was organized, on time, and amazingly helpful with extra little tips. We paid a little extra for set up and clean up through her company and she and all of her assistants were detailed and paid attention to everything from our vision. They created the most unbelievably beautiful setting for our entire wedding and the clean up couldn't have been more helpful. Thank you to Sherri & all of the Creations by Collis team for helping to bring my dream wedding to life :)

would have been able to accomplish all of this without her amazing work and dedication. She is so gifted at what she does. I highly recommend!

everything perfect! She was responsive, kind, patient, and kept me sane. Hiring Sherri's team was by far one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Couldn't have done it without her.

me where I was concerned that something was being forgotten about. Sherri met with us a few months before the wedding to iron out details including family info, timeline for the day of, decor, etc. You name it, Sherri can handle it. We also had a 2 hour long phone conversation a few weeks ahead of the big day to review seating and reception hall set up. When you've been planning your special day for months and months, it's a little tricky to relinquish all control to someone else. Upon arriving to Winthrop Carter House, Sherri had a take-charge attitude making us feel so confident that things would go as we had planned them. Not only did she deliver the most beautiful ceremony and reception set up, her team was around all night making sure things continued to go as smoothly as possible. She even left mid-reception to buy a new toilet seat, after one of the three on the property cracked!!! Sherri is a boss and she is worth every penny we spent. If you want to sit back, relax, and enjoy your wedding, knowing all the while it's in good hands - Sherri and Creations By Collis should be at the top of your list!!!! Highly recommend!

first initial email, she was very attentive, detailed, and creative - and just continued to help me in every way possible leading up to our wedding weekend. Sherri helped us keep track of our budget, reached out to our vendors with detailed timelines, and was very responsible via email or phone if I had a simple question or crazy idea. Sherri also helped plan our rehearsal dinner and when we had to make a last minute drastic change she didn't bat an eye and everything was, again, perfect. The day of our wedding was everything we could have ever dreamed of and more. We want to relive it every single weekend if we could and most of that is because of how smoothly it went with having Sherri as our wedding planner. Sherri - thank you so much for always calming me down when I got stressed out, for all the big things, all the small tiny details, all the late night emails, and all the attention you gave to us throughout the 1.5 years. You truly made me feel like the only bride in the world and we cannot thank you enough for everything.

of preferred vendors and their contact info. Along with an online planner, which helped me keep track of my budget, inspirations and vendor numbers. Sherri took it to the next level and would respond with comments, thoughts, ways to save money etc on all my inspo. I would email Sherri at all hours of the day/night/morning and her responses were pretty much instant. She had the best recommendations for every detail or process. The day of our wedding, our heaters bailed. Sherri called various rental places, friends and family to find us a last minute heater. She somehow got us some, and didnt even have us worry about the cost. Sherri not only came and set up my whole ceremony, but entire my reception. She knew my inspiration and transformed the space into my pinterest dreams. I did not have to go in and lift a finger. Hiring Sherri was probably one of the best decisions of my day, I would NOT have done it without her. She is miracle worker, pleasure to be around, quick, knows her stuff and organized. I was truly able to enjoy my wedding weekend worry free!

ice, I would reach out and she had an answer almost immediately. On the day of, the venue we chose was very hands-on so a lot of things still needed to be done which she handled wonderfully. I felt comfortable leaving details to her but she made sure that everything was just as I wanted. I would highly recommend her services!

ht the first time. On the day of the wedding, she and her team did an awesome job of setting up and breaking down the event, we didn’t have to do a thing. On the day of the wedding, WOW! Everything ran smoothly, she took care of organizing 8 vendors, and worked tirelessly behind the scenes. If you want a “do it yourself” wedding with lots of help, she is your gal.

We firmly believe we couldnt have done our wedding without her guidance. As our officiant she kept the ceremony exactly as we envisioned and made the speech relevant to the moment and our relationship. Sherri was more than our coordinator, she was our friend and partner who guided us through one of the most important days of our lives. For that we are eternally grateful.

i as a wedding coordinator to any couple getting married. Thank you Sherri for all of your hard work and dedication to help make our wedding day run smoothly and flawlessly. We appreciate everything you do!

s to make it feel like something that suited our family. Sherri even took the time to add custom labels to 50 handmade mugs that the sister of the groom made for the event, going even one step further and setting up a hot cider station with the mugs for people to pick from and keep for themselves. Perfect for a fall wedding. Sherri's ability to negotiate with vendors more than covered the cost of her services. I cannot recommend Sherri enough. Looking forward to working with her again soon.

ent were a bit complicated to say the least. Sherri was exceptionally flexible with us, adding wonderful lovely touches to this special day. Did I mention that the engagement was a quick four months because the couple was moving to Europe? In that short time, Sherri, Dan and her crew helped us create a ‘Only in New Hampshire’ experience complete with a gondola ride to Cannon Mtn, cocktail party at Mt Washington Hotel and catered event our our bed and breakfast. Our guests raved about the event, and we, the exhausted parents, managed easily to enjoy this wonderful gathering of our family. Thank you dearest Sherri; I can’t wait to do it all over again with our youngest. Fran

ecial day she will YES you to death however, on the wedding day you will have to go and find her as she wanders off doing absolutely nothing that matter to your wedding event and when you ask her to please ensure something is done because this is specifically what you discusssed PRIOR to wedding she will have an excuse and say thats not my job or YES you to death only to check up later and its still not done. The mother of the bride should not be working the event! Basically, Sherri and her useless assistant were parking attendants. So, if your looking for a parking attendant SHES YOUR GIRL! She literally ruined my daughters day being rude to everyone in the wedding party with her attitude. Just so disappointed truly stay away from this woman bad news. She told us she would not be eating a meal. After the event I was charged not only for her meal but her useless assistants meal. My caterer advised that Sherri came up and asked for her meal and the assistant. So rude!!! She had a lot of nerve let me tell you. I cannot stress enough to stay away from this woman your day will not go as planned. She will lie to you and promise you the moon but when its showtime she's eating or BUSY being a PARKING ATTENDANT!!!!!

red Sherri as a day of coordinator and I feel as though she went above and beyond her duties, staying later than planned and cleaning up at the end of the event when that wasn’t even outlined in our contract. She took my décor prior to the wedding and set everything up, dealt with tiny details (down to the napkin folding!) with the venue day-of. I was truly able to enjoy my wedding day without any stress because I knew Sherri would handle it. If you need ideas, she is well connected with vendors in the NH region for rentals, décor, etc. I’ve already been recommending her to my other friends planning weddings in the area and I am so happy I chose to use her services for my September 2017 wedding.

venue location had everything separate) and she would coordinate the line up before the ceremony. Sherri was helpful via email answering questions we had, however in person she was a nightmare. She is the rudest, most condescending person I have ever met. The day of my wedding, while I was getting my hair and makeup done, Sherri came to me to tell me there were cars not parked correctly and I needed to get them moved. I told her I was in the middle of getting ready and please ask one of the groomsmen as those were their cars anyway. Why she would bother the bride with this on the day of their wedding is ridiculous, there were plenty of other people she could have told this to. A few minutes before our ceremony was about to start, one of my bridesmaids started to get a bloody nose. Sherri was rolling her eyes, sighing and yelling at me and the bridesmaids telling us we need to go we are late! She could see my bridesmaid's nose bleeding and knew what was going on. I told her we obviously have to wait, its my wedding I don't care if we are a few minutes late she's bleeding from the nose! Instead of Sherri leaving our room and letting the groomsman know what was happening, she stayed in our room staring at us, looking at her watch annoyed. My groom and the groomsman lined up themselves and walked out to the ceremony. They waited at the alter for a good 15 minutes not knowing what was going on because Sherri did not tell anyone. The right thing to do would have either told the groomsman to wait before walking or ask someone to make an announcement. Instead, my new husband was left worrying if I was a run away bride. Not to mention it was hot outside they were all sweating in quits longer than they needed to. I had asked Sherri previously if she required a vendor meal from the caterers and she told me no. I found out after my wedding she did eat a meal and also her assistant helped themselves to a meal. I was charged extra by my caterers for Sherri's meal that she told me she did not need. Sherri stated she was only there for emergency situations as I did not purchase a full package with her. I would say my bridesmaid getting a bloody nose 5 minutes before the ceremony was an emergency wouldn't you? Or someone parking in the wrong spot? You will need someone who is calm, compassionate and quick thinking the day of your wedding. Sherri is non of these things and caused more stress for me then I needed. Her tone and approach needs a serious adjustment if she is going to continue to be around people's weddings.

ff without a hitch and it really had to do with her organization, professionalism, flexibility and overall knowledge of the wedding industry. I don't know what I would have done without her and her amazing team. A+++++
