Electric Love Events

ul. It’s clear there was behind-the-scenes work done with vendors, but the communication experience leading up to the wedding was stressful for us. We often felt out of the loop and unsure what had been handled, which made the final planning stretch more overwhelming than expected. When we expressed that we were feeling stressed and asked for more visibility into vendor communication, that was addressed very late in the process and in a way that felt reactive rather than supportive. Because we never had a real conversation to review in the week or two beforehand, several special touches we had planned were missed or never used. For a large wedding with many moving parts, that final communication and collaboration felt especially important. None of the phone calls I or my husband made to her in the few days before my wedding were returned or acknowledged. Emily did answer one phone call from my mother who was pretty uninvolved from my whole planning process as she lives across the country. I’m sharing this for couples who are looking for not only logistical coordination, but also proactive communication, transparency, and a supportive presence during the final weeks of planning. If those are priorities for you, I would recommend discussing expectations in detail upfront.
