I literally do not even know where to begin with Billy. Just AMAZING is all I can really say. I was a destination wedding bride in Ohio having a beach wedding down in FL. We found our venue first and I then had others telling me I needed to hir...e a wedding day coordinator. I had never really given this much thought until I realized how truly busy I would be and not be able to do it all myself.
After looking through many different websites and not knowing who to go through for a coordinator, none of them just really "grabbed" me and made me feel like I'd want to work with them (no offense to any other coordinators). I started doing all of the planning on my own and first found my reception venue. Since we wouldn't be seeing our venue in person for several months out when we took a vacation down in FL last fall, I started to go through social media to look for reviews, videos, whatever I could find so we could get a feel for how our venue space and everything was. Low and behold, I came across a TikTok that Billy tagged my hired venue in that she was setting up a wedding at. In this TikTok her vibe, her energy, her vision, just literally everything truly made me really like her and really wanted her to coordinate my wedding. I reached out last summer and we had a zoom call and I knew instantly she was the one I wanted to hire. Even though I hired her for day of only, as I had already been doing most of the planning and decor shopping myself, when I tell you she understood the assignment, she truly did. From last year when I hired her until my wedding last week, this woman was there for literally ANYTHING I could want or ask. Not a single time when I had a question did she take more than 10 mins to respond (at most and I'm not kidding), but if she was busy and had a lot going on she let me know she got my text and it would take her a bit to reply. Not one time did I feel in the dark with not knowing something, or how something would be. If I started to freak out about something, she was right there to try and calm me down and reassure me that things would be fine and she would make sure of it. Being a destination bride is not easy when you are states away and can't be there to do certain things or see things when you need to, but she made it a breeze and was there to help with anything I could need. Getting all of my vendors on board, communicating with them for everything, and making things so much easier on our day of was such a blessing. The day of my wedding they were calling for storms, and weather had been atrocious in FL since we got into the state the week of our wedding and I was seriously stressing about rain. She knew I was stressed. She tried to make me feel at ease, and even on the day of, when the weather was being really crazy and so unpredictable, while she was at my venue setting up, and didn't get much reception in the building, she was SITTING IN HER CAR WATCHING THE WEATHER RADAR FaceTiming me, calming me down, telling me not to stress, and making sure everything was going to be good for our ceremony in a couple hours and going over backup plans with me that she already coordinated with our beach ceremony vendor.
I literally couldn't have asked for anything more. Our day was BEAUTIFUL, every part of it, and I'm so very glad to have met her, and have her be a part of our day and bring my vision to life. If you truly want someone who will care and go to all ends for you, hire her people. You will not regret it.
