Emily is hands down the BEST wedding planning decision we ever made! We met Emily when she was the event manager at our venue- The Athletic Club of Columbus- 18 months before our wedding. She started out with hugs and laughter and extreme profe...ssionalism and immediately understood our vision for our wedding. She began giving us suggestions on how to make our dream a reality right away and made us feel like we were the most important wedding they could ever have. We had an immediate connection, and I knew that she would go above and beyond to make our fairytale come true!
When she started Exhale Events, it was a nonnegotiable to hire her and keep her as an influential part of our big day. Emily exceeded any and all expectations and is the sole reason our wedding came together as perfectly as it did!
Emily went above in every aspect of our wedding planning. We were planning from across the country, and the tools she gave us to stay on track and make sure we didn't miss any detail were incredible. She met with us every time we came back to Columbus to go over details again and again and continue to change and adapt any plans based on her own expertise. She created our timeline, gave recommendations for vendors and details, and even made our hotel welcome bags!
Because I am a type-A personality, Emily's main focus in the month leading up to the wedding was to keep me stress free by handling ALL communication with ALL vendors. I would never have trusted anyone to do "the bride's work" besides Emily and knew that we were in great hands to have all of our dreams come true!
On the wedding weekend, she took care of every single detail from our getting ready snacks and late night pizzas to setting up all of our decor and running the timeline. She kept everything running smoothly and on time and kept our bridal party and guests entertained all day with her upbeat attitude and bubbly personality. There is absolutely NO WAY our wedding would have been as perfect as it was without her. My entire bridal party commented on how incredible she was and my parents both said, "The money best spent was having Emily!"
Emily offered incredible support, kept me calm (which is a very big feat), and ran things professionally and perfectly. She is one of the BEST people you will ever meet in your life, and the BEST part of our wedding! I cannot recommend her highly enough- you will not be disappointed!
Thank you, Emily, for EVERYTHING! You are simply the best.
