day are super helpful to keep you on track and make sure you have everything you need. Hailey and her team are extremely responsive to emails both from us and our vendors. On the day, everything went so smoothly, and even if things went wrong, we had no idea because of how on top of everything they were! We would recommend Essen Events to literally anyone and everyone! you absolutely get what you pay for with them and it was so worth it.
Everybody do yourself a favor and HIRE ESSEN EVENTS FOR YOUR WEDDING!!! I was that bride that believed I could plan a wedding myself and do everything DIY. It's not possible to all...
that without the consequence of stress, late nights, and tears. You need to hire a wedding planner.
I hired Hailey and her team for my wedding because I was really torn on how I'd include all the things I wanted in my wedding. To explain, I'm Vietnamese and my husband is half Brazilian-half white. Something that was really important to us is that we represent our cultures all together, but we've never seen a Vietnamese-Brazilian-American wedding ever before so we had no idea where to start. Not only did we have so many ideas culturally for our wedding, we had so many ideas period. My husband and I are a younger married couple and we got married right out of college. I wanted to be proud of our youth but not have a child-like wedding. Hailey was the PERFECT person to hire because she just understood everything we wanted and everything we were concerned about.
Hailey is also someone who will advocate for you. I call Hailey the Wedding-Lawyer because she really will have your back through everything-- she helped make all communication so smooth and effortless, handled any conflicting opinions from other vendors, she's ready for your classic wedding family drama, and she just has the biggest and kindest heart! Which really meant a lot for me!
I also like to call Hailey a magician. I don't know what she puts in her coffee but for some reason she is way too good at what she does. Sometimes I didn't even know how to explain my vision for the wedding, but she knew exactly what it was and executed it to perfection. The day of the actual wedding I was honestly jaw dropped. The Essen Events team made the entire day so smooth and effortless. They are sneaky ninjas, because I swear I blinked and BOOM my entire venue was decorated BEAUTIFULLY and everything was planned to the minute perfectly by them. I had the most relaxed and enjoyable day as a bride because of them. They were incredible to me, my family, wedding party, and just everybody!
I just cannot recommend Essen Events enough!!!! Whether you just got engaged or have already planned half of your wedding, still consider hiring Essen Events because it was just the most perfect wedding ever with them!
Hailey was absolutely incredible to work and helped execute our day perfectly. With both wedding day coordination and florals, it was great to have her on our side during the last ...
month of wedding planning. She was responsive, calm, and supportive whenever I came to her with questions and concerns. As I told my mom so many times, "I'm so glad I have Hailey."
Her florals were absolutely gorgeous and everything I could have wanted. She went off the few ideas I had and came up with a bouquet, boutonnières, and table centerpieces that went above and beyond.
We used Essen Events for our Day of Coordinator and the team was amazing. A selling point for us was the familiarity and experience Essen had working with many of our local vendors...

Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made. Highly, highly recommend!
We worked with Hailey and Essen for our September wedding and cannot recommend them enough! Hailey's creativity when it came to florals and decor resulted in a wedding that was mor...
e beautiful than we could have imagined! We were indecisive about colors and Hailey was not only patient but also enthusiastic when we would come to her with a new idea. She was also amazingly organized and communicative on the coordination side. It was so great to have her handling all the details for the last few weeks and on the day of so we could truly enjoy the special day! Thanks Hailey!!
Absolutely amazing! They did a great job leading up to the wedding day, and handled everything on wthe edding day.
Essen was an absolute dream to work with. I had hoped to find a vendor that could handle both florals and day-of coordination, and I’m SO glad I discovered Essen. Hailey was a stea...
dy, creative, and supportive presence throughout our entire planning process. She noticed the little details that mattered to us and never seemed to forget a single thing I said. She brought my floral vision to life—and then some. The flowers and tables were stunning; our friends were taking pictures with our ceremony arches all through cocktail hour!
And then there was our day-of coordinator, Melya. From the moment I met her, I knew she was the best of the best. Her calm, cheerful energy and clear expertise allowed me, a former event planner, to fully immerse myself in the moment and soak in the magic. I’ve literally never been to a wedding where everything ran on time—until my own. I still don’t know how she did it.
We truly couldn’t have pulled off such a perfect weekend without them. Essen made everything feel effortless, beautiful, and deeply personal. I’ll be stalking their Instagram forever and recommending them to everyone I know!
We hired Essen for floral and partial planning package, and it was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. Hailey was essential in helping bring the vision and d...
esign of the day to life, and her florals were JAW-DROPPING. She helped connect us to other great vendors as well. Melya was our day of coordinator and had the perfect laid-back but completely in-control vibe, my whole family was impressed and the day went even more smoothly than we expected. Nothing but gratitude for the whole Essen team, our wedding was the best day of our lives!

W - from start to finish, working with this special team was top notch. Hailey is responsive, thorough, very detail-oriented, and a delight to work with...not to mention insanely talented!! I gave her some very loose "vibe" photos of what I was thinking for our flowers and she totally ran with it and she far exceeded any and all expectations. The florals were an absolute dream come true and the vision I didn't even know I had - she NAILED IT!
Our day-of coordinators Nicole and Jackie were so key to our day (and month leading up to the day) running so seamlessly. If you are thinking of getting a day-of coordinator...DO IT. You will not regret it. Worth every single penny - these ladies are super stars and the day could not have run more smoothly. Everything was on schedule and every detail was covered and we got to FULLY enjoy it without stressing about the timeline. I would recommend Essen Events over and over again! Thank you all SO much!!
I cannot recommend Hailey and her team enough. I truly felt like I could be completely hands off the day of and focus on enjoying my time with friends and family. The decor was set...
up beautifully and Hailey was so accommodating with all the decor our family DIY’ed. Her communication with vendors was flawless and professional. She thought of things I never would have and truly allowed me to approach the day stress free. The best advice I was given prior to wedding planning was to get a ‘Day of Coordinator’. The best advice I can give is to hire Essen Events.
Hailey and her team at Essen Events ensured that our wedding was beautiful and that the evening smoothly transitioned from moment to moment. We didn't have to think about a thing; ...
we simply enjoyed ourselves. We hired her as our day-of coordinator, and by the time it came to "day-of" I was overwhelmed and definitely over planning elaborate decorations. She took what I handed her (which was blingy but minimal) and made it look stunning - for real. Her expertise and creativity saved the day. We got so many compliments from our guests.
Working with Essen Events for day of coordinating was one of the best things we did in planning our wedding. They took all the stress away so we could just enjoy our wedding day! O...
ur coordinator Melya and her assistant set up all our decor and place settings, made sure our ceremony went off without a hitch, cleaned up at the end of the night, and I’m sure a ton of other things I don’t even know about because I was left to enjoy spending time with my family and now husband rather than stressing over logistics. I highly recommend working with Essen! You will not regret it!
We hired Essen for day-of-coordination and floral for our April wedding at Paikka. Absolutely the best decision we could have made! Our day went so smoothly and we felt so well sup...
ported. Working with Essen was such an easy process. Hailey took my little vision board and created floral arrangements better than my wildest dreams. I was OBSESSED with my bouquet and the hanging arrangement she and her team worked so hard to assemble. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful it all was. There wasn’t a single question Hailey couldn’t answer or detail she didn’t cover. Hailey and her team bring a high level of professionalism, expertise, organization, and enthusiasm to what they do- and they do it well! We are so grateful for the support we had from Essen on our wedding day.
Our experience with Essen Events and Hailey, in particular, was absolutely outstanding. Hailey and her team were an absolute dream to work with, and we can't thank them enough for ...
their exceptional service and professionalism.
From the moment we hired Hailey for day-of coordination, we knew we were in good hands. Hailey's expertise and attention to detail were evident from the start. She seamlessly took the wheel a month prior to the wedding, communicating with vendors and ensuring that every detail was in place.
Hailey's professionalism and organizational skills were truly impressive. She expertly managed every aspect of our wedding, from coordinating with vendors to ensuring that everything ran smoothly on the day of. We were able to relax and enjoy our special day knowing that Hailey had everything under control.
What truly sets Hailey apart is her ability to understand and execute her clients' vision flawlessly. She took the time to listen to our ideas and preferences, and she went above and beyond to ensure that everything was how we envisioned. Her attention to detail and commitment to excellence were truly remarkable.
On the day of our wedding, Hailey and her team were absolute rock stars. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes, ensuring that everything ran seamlessly and according to plan. Thanks to Hailey's meticulous planning and coordination, our wedding day was nothing short of perfect.
We are forever grateful to Hailey and Essen Events for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.
My husband and I worked with Hailey and her team at Essen Events for our wedding last May, and had an exceptional experience with both the floral and day of coordination services w...
e booked.
While looking for a vendor in this space, it was important to me that the coordination and floral were from one vendor. I just felt this would be the smoothest option. Essen laid out their package options very clearly and after a call with Hailey to talk about the initial details, I booked pretty quickly! Haileys professionalism and portfolio made this an easy decision.
Over our almost two year planning process, I loved having access to Essen's Aisle Planner online. Even though I didn't use it to organize every single thing, it helped me make sure I was considering all the important vendors/pieces to the big day, and gave me a space to save inspo for floral and decor. It really helped me along in the planning that I took on myself. I initially went in thinking I would do one style/color scheme etc. and by the time we reached about a month out from the wedding, my vision changed completely. Hailey was available for update calls when requested, and went right along with my ideas and really helped the vision come to life! I couldn't be happier with how she and her floral team made it all come together the day of.
Nicole was in charge of the day of coordination piece, and I think she handled it very well. We met once a month out from the wedding and then emailed several times a week from then on to nail down the schedule and other details such as vendor contacts, song choices, set up items etc. The wedding day went so. flawlessly. I was stressed out in the morning but once we got through HMU and photos and Nicole and her assistant met us at the church, I felt so relieved - it felt like they had everything under control from that point. If things went wrong at my wedding, I didn't hear about them or couldn't notice them if I tried.. I just got to be in the moment and enjoy being a bride :)
All in all, Hailey, Nicole and the Essen team ensured I had a beautiful wedding and allowed me and my husband to enjoy it to the fullest. Everything went so perfectly, I could not be happier that we hired Essen. I would highly recommend Essen Events to anyone looking for floral and/or planning services!!
Nearly a year into our two years of wedding planning, our original day-of coordinator bailed on us. I was so panicked and desperate to find someone. Essen came highly recommended b...
y a friend in the industry, they were fortunately available on our date, and, at the end of the day, they were the best thing to have happened to us. Hailey took us on and matched us up with Melya, and they both ended up being there on the day of our wedding, and I couldn't be more grateful for the two of them. They went so above and beyond, in my opinion, to make things as truly stress-free for us as possible. They use the Aisle Planner program, which was so easy to use, and I sure did use it a lot!! Melya hopped onto communicating with our vendors using all the information I put into Aisle Planner, and it was like she became an extension of me. I didn't even think about needing to manage her in any capacity - I just handed it all over to her and was able to truly relax and enjoy the lead-up to the wedding. On the actual day-of, she did an incredible job of keeping the day flowing and keeping all of us on task. She readily stepped in to fix the few minor issues that cropped up. I want to be clear: there are bound to be issues on wedding days, but because of the extensive planning and communication we had, I can honestly say our wedding day was essentially flawless. If anything major happened, I sure don't know about it :) In all, I cannot recommend Essen enough. Hailey and Melya are lovely people and are SO good at what they do, and I will forever appreciate how they stepped in when we needed them and all the work they put in that made our wedding day perfect.
Hailey and Essen Events did Day of Coordination for us and it was one of the best decisions we made for our day! So many of our guests kept saying “how did everything go so perfect...
ly!?” and “I can’t believe there was nothing that went wrong!” I definitely think we can attribute that to Hailey and her team. They took care of all of the questions that came up throughout the day and it ran so smoothly. They take over all vendor communication for the month leading up to the wedding which was a huge stress reliever and such a perk of having Essen as your day of coordinator. If you are thinking about getting a day off coordinator, DO IT and pick Essen Events!
The picture added is right after we walked down the aisle and totally captures how much Hailey cares about each and every one of her couples ❤️
Hailey, Nicole, Melya, and their team did an AMAZING job on our wedding day!! There was not a single thing that I wished they did differently, everything went exactly as expected a...
nd so smoothly! (or if it didn't, I didn't know about it at all!!). They were all so nice, easy to work with, and made us confident that they had it all under control. I would highly recommend using the Essen team for planning and coordination, they exceeded our expectations!
If I could give you one piece of wedding planning advice: HIRE ESSEN EVENTS FOR FLORAL AND DAY OF COORDINATION!!! I have nothing but AMAZING things to say about the Essen Events te...
am. I truly could not have hand-picked a better floral/day-of coordination vendor. Florals - Hailey was amazing and took my vision and brought it to life...but a million times better! I am still obsessed with every floral detail from my wedding and we got SO MANY compliments from our guests on our florals. We had multiple people tell us that they were the most beautiful florals they'd ever seen and multiple people asked Hailey for her card. I seriously tear up thinking about my florals. Coordination - we had the pleasure of working with Melya for our day-of coordination. She went above and beyond helping coordinate timeline, troubleshoot vendor issues, setting up and tearing down every piece of decor, and fielding everyone's questions. Just one amazing example of how helpful she was: I forgot a frame for a photo we were going to be using in our ceremony and she helped switch out our unplugged ceremony sign for a photo of my brother that was going to be incorporated into our ceremony within minutes of walking down the aisle. She left the unplugged ceremony sign until all guests were sat, and then switched out the sign with the photo for the first bridesmaid to walk down the aisle with. Amazing! Thank you Essen team!!
Wowow we don’t even know where to start! Working with Hailey was one of the best decisions we ever made. She was our full-service wedding planner and did our florals for our Septem...
ber 2023 wedding.
Hailey made the whole wedding planning process fun and easy—something that we were very worried about before working with her because of our busy schedules. She was able to make our vision a reality and truly create the wedding of our dreams with her coordinating, design guides, and flowers! The tablespaces and installs we were dreaming of truly would not have been able to come to life without the help of Hailey :)
Hailey also checked all of our vendor contracts and was a main contact for several of our vendors which was incredibly helpful—especially in the few weeks leading up to our wedding.
Not only that, but the actual wedding day went incredibly smooth—we even had several guests come up to us and our parents saying this is the smoothest and most beautiful :) wedding they had ever attended. Hailey also made sure we had appetizers saved for us during the busy cocktail hour and drinks handed to us after our ceremony :)
I can’t stress enough how amazing Hailey and the Essen team is and we are just so thankful to have worked with them! :)
I had the pleasure of working with Hailey Barrett from Essen Events as both my wedding planner and my florist. I chose the partial planning package - it was the perfect fit for wha...
t I was looking for (I needed design guidance and industry expertise, but also wanted to have a part in the planning process). AND let me tell you .... I could NOT be happier with how our wedding went.
From the moment my husband and I met Hailey, we felt at ease with Hailey's energy - she's such an expert and a professional, but she is also SO easy to chat with and just be around (even when I was a little stressed girlie).
I explored a few options for a wedding planner, and what set Hailey apart for me was her genuine passion for the couples she works with. She has a sparkle and an excitement for what she does, and she helped make my CRAZY dreams come true (like the INSANELY GORGEOUS FLORAL INSTALLATION that we repurposed as a centerpiece for our dancefloor!!! LIKE WHAT?!).
Before finding Essen Events, I was really worried about how I would make my pinterest board of dreams into a reality. Hailey took my ideas from pinterest and asked about some of our desires for the day and made a design plan that we could execute from all of my SCATTERED ideas. That's true talent!! It was so comforting to see how we could achieve the look I wanted.
Hailey and her team are not JUST wedding planners and florists - they are ARTISTS, they are KIND, they are your HYPE GIRLS, they are the right choice for your wedding if you're looking to be surrounded by gorgeous vibes and wonderful people.
Thank you, @Essen Events for the privilege of working with you on our FAVORITE day of all time.
We cannot thank Essen Events and Hailey, Nicole, and Victoria enough for helping make our wedding day the best day ever! Hailey, Nicole, and Essen's Aisle Planner software kept ou...
r planning on-track and stress-free, and Nicole and Victoria kept our big day on-track and stress-free, from beginning to end. One of our guest's plus-one happened to be an out-of-state wedding coordinator and at the end of the night she said our wedding had "the perfect run-of-show" -- we agree! We wholeheartedly recommend Essen's Day-Of Coordination service!
Hailey and her team are the best! From start to finish they responded quickly and were very thorough. The day of the wedding went so smoothly and we never were even asked a questio...

I cannot recommend Essen Events highly enough! Hailey absolutely knocked it out of the park for our wedding. We leveraged her for planning and floral services, and she helped us to...
finely articulate what we wanted out of our day from a flow and design perspective. She was thorough, thoughtful, and honest with us from day one, and with her running the show seamlessly, we were truly able to let go and enjoy our wedding day. The floral arrangements she put together were stunning and nailed the vibes we were looking to create as well. You'll be in great hands with Essen Events!
The best decision we made during this whole process was hiring Hailey as our wedding planner. She made everything so easy - she took the overwhelming and made it manageable. I am a...
n easily stressed person and would not have survived the day if not for her and her team. Our wedding was so perfect - absolutely magical, and so seamless! If there were fires to put out, we didn't know it. She handled everything. I absolutely recommend her and her team!
Thank goodness for the Essen team! For weeks, we have continued to say how thankful we were to have hired Haley and team. Despite only hiring them for the day-of planning, Haley wa...
s so generous with her time and effort to make sure the day was flawless. A few weeks before, she ensured the last details were set with our vendors (huge relief) and day-of really helped with the flow of the ceremony and reception (I did not realize how important this would be!). They are so passionate about your day being a dream. Seriously, our wedding turned out PERFECT and a massive reason for that was because of the Essen team taking care of background details, and offering such helpful tools ahead of time for month-of planning (ex: seating charts, timelines, music lists, ceremony outline, writing out what decor you need, and just great basic advice). Additionally, about half of our vendors were recommendations from them and were wonderful to work with. If you are even considering a day-of coordinator, DO IT! Absolutely 100% would recommend hiring Essen Events for your wedding.
We hired Hailey and her team for full service planning and floral design. She created design boards for the wedding and floral design which perfectly captured my vision for the day...
. Her floral designs were absolutely breathtaking and really made the design for the event spaces go from good to breathtaking. She was great in helping us determine event space options and narrow down our choices. She provided excellent recommendations for vendors. Day of, everything felt like it had a time and place - the day flowed smoothly thanks to her detailed timeline.
We hired Hailey and the Essen Events team for our floral and day of coordination package. We have nothing but incredible things to say about Hailey and her team. From the moment we...
hired them to when we left the venue as a married couple, they were incredible. Even as busy as she is, Hailey was able to get back to us in a timely manner with every last one of our questions. Our wedding was at The Hutton House and Hailey had plenty of recommendations and thoughts about what would look good and how we could reuse the floral at different points in the day. Hailey was also such a calming presence on a very hectic and sometimes stressful day and we were grateful we hired them for our day of coordination. The Essen team handled most of the communication with our vendors as our wedding day was getting closer and they were very thorough with ensuring everything was set up for an incredible day. We wish we could rate them higher than 5 stars!
Hire Essen Events!! We worked with the Essen team for our wedding coordination in June. We met with Hailey various times throughout the planning process and she made us feel comfor...
table and confident in all of the decisions we made. The Essen online planning tool is a lifesaver too! Melya was our amazing day of coordinator. Planning our wedding from out of state, we had a lot of upfront coordination to do and Melya handled everything with ease from the vendors, decor set up and rehearsal. Thank you so much Essen team for making our day so amazing and one we could fully enjoy!
Hailey made all my floral dreams come true!! I was just blown away by her and her teams talent, our venue was already beautiful but the flowers made it STUNNING!
I have to say hiring Hailey and her team for our wedding was BY FAR the best thing we did for our wedding. Our day was perfect. I can honestly say not a single thing went wrong tha...
t I’m aware of. And what bride can truly say that? I believe it was in large part due to Hailey’s attention to detail, care, and professionalism. She’s also just an all around great person which makes planning fun and relaxed. She also did our floral and we received many compliments on all of the floral displays. We loved everything she did for our wedding!
We used Essen for both Day of Coordination and florals. They stepped in to do florals last minute when our other florist fell through and were honestly the biggest lifesaver and di...
d a BEAUTIFUL job. I thought I was a really organized and on-top-of-it bride but they thought of questions to ask and things to plan for that I never would have, in addition to being so sweet and pleasant to work with. They are also super experienced and connected in the Minneapolis wedding vendor community which was really helpful for additional recommendations and relationships.
Hailey and her team are PURE MAGIC! First off, I was amazed to find out they could manage both coordination and floral - if you require both of these services, I HIGHLY recommend u...
sing Essen for both. Hailey was such a great communicator from the start and a huge help in more ways than expected, she provided a planning tool that kept everything in line and I did not have a worry in the world knowing Essen had everything down to a T. The day of, Marie and her team were wizards managing to get every detail setup and teared down (might I add in MN summer humidity) ensuring the entire time I did not have to lift a finger, yet somehow making my vision come to life. You will not regret working with Essen Events!
Hailey at Essen Events was incredible to work with. We hired Hailey for our floral, design, and day of coordinator. She did an excellent job creating a design guide and helping us ...
source all rentals. She helped us reschedule due to COVID by communicating with all vendors, something she did not need to provide but went above and beyond to do so. Hailey provided us with an online software to help plan the wedding and worked with all vendors to create the day of timeline. On the wedding day, she took care of all set up and tear down. She was the best day of coordinator, ensuring everything was on time and smoothly. We would not have had such a beautiful and smooth wedding without Hailey! She is excellent at what she does and I cannot say enough good things about her. I would highly recommend Hailey to any bride looking for floral, design, or a wedding planner!
Hailey is a magician! We hired her as our florist and day-of-coordinator, and we’re so glad we did. While we were planning, Hailey always responded promptly and made herself availa...
ble for quick phone calls if we had any questions or concerns about anything- which was so helpful when our plans completely changed during COVID. She’s professional, and she stays relaxed and approachable, so we always felt like we could ask her anything, anytime. Having someone so organized and so knowledgeable about events was such a comfort. On the day of the wedding, she made our event space look gorgeous with her floral and decor. As coordinator, from setup to tear down, she kept everything running smoothly. And she was ready for everything! When I spilled an entire glass of red wine down the front of my dress, Hailey was there with club soda and helped me get it out before I even realized what was happening. She’s who you want in charge of all the details so you can really enjoy your day. We can’t recommend her enough!
Hailey is an absolute gem! I have followed her work for a while and love everything she has created. She was incredibly organized, was willing to meet with me to just vent and figu...
re out what to do for a wedding during a pandemic. She listened to the vision and vibe I had and created beautiful bouquets and bud vases. We had to downsize due to the pandemic, but Hailey still came through to create beautiful arrangements with a smaller budget. She really listened and was able to do more than I could have imagined.
I am so happy that I chose Essen Events for my wedding flowers! Hailey was very organized and friendly. I was impressed that she creates custom quotes for interested customers, whi...
ch include images of what your flowers might look like (I find that other florists weren't as helpful on this front). I also found her prices to be reasonable. I ended up ordering 2 bridal bouquets (for split wedding), 6 bridesmaid bouquets, a toss bouquet, cake flowers, and 22 centerpieces for $2,000.
We split up our wedding ceremony and reception because of COVID-19, and I am looking forward to see what Hailey will create for the reception. The bridal bouquet and the bridesmaid bouquets I got for the ceremony were absolutely gorgeous! They had a lovely color palette, and I thought they were the perfect size. We decided to pick them up from Hailey's house to save on delivery costs, and they were securely packaged. She even let me keep the vases! Overall, I had a very positive experience with Essen Events.
Hailey of Essen Events is a dream to work with! As a wedding photographer, I appreciate her attention to detail, the amount of love she pours into everyone she serves, how she keep...

Hailey with Essen Events was fantastic for our September wedding! The flowers she provided for bouquets and centerpieces were not only gorgeous, but they stayed beautiful for weeks...
after our event and the quality was outstanding. She has incredible vision when it comes to putting together floral elements, and we are still getting compliments all the time in how beautiful our flowers and centerpieces looked. She was so easy to work with and very organized, and I would absolutely recommend her to future brides!

Hailey is simply the best! I cannot even begin to put into words the amazing help she was. When my husband and I walked into the venue it was truly a dream come true. Every detail ...

headache saver. I only had to buy a handful of separate items that she couldn't provide and were easily found at Michaels/Hobby Lobby. Hayley is so friendly and has a beautiful vision for weddings.

ll of our questions (we had many as neither of us have planned a large event before). Hailey helped with our wedding day timeline and kept our day moving as planned. She made sure our parents were happy and taken care of, and coordinated with all the vendors so that things went smoothly. We even heard about a few hiccups that happened at the wedding, but not until after the fact. Hailey solved any issue that came up without my husband or I knowing it was even a problem. Hailey and her assistant worked incredibly hard until after midnight on our wedding day making sure our day was perfect. You will not regret considering Hailey and her team to help coordinate your event! It was money well spent!
