She threatened to sue my friend for defamation if she would write a negative review; she was very disorganized and my friend decided to fire her, and yet Megan still made her pay the full amount, threatening to sue if she didn't do it. Total waste of time, money, and energy, and caused a lot of unnecessary trauma to my friend when she was already in a stressful time planning her wedding.
She’s going to take your money early so when she ruins your wedding day, it won’t matter because she already got paid. As a bridesmaid I luckily only had to deal with this woman for two days and it was the worst experience. For starters, we only had one hour sharp for the rehearsal and she showed up over 30 minutes late which that was probably for the best. The day of the wedding, she again showed up late but that was the least of our worries. The silverware she brought was disgusting and had this wet yogurt like substance all over them so the bridesmaids had to polish silverware and set the tables. She didn’t even bring enough linens for the amount of guests at the reception and not to forget they were also dirty and had mold stains all over them so we had to ask the venue for theirs. She forgot name tags for people for the table setting and tried to blame her negligence on the bridesmaids who had to step up and do what should have been her job. When the bride went to speak to her about it she was yelling at the bride on her wedding day to the point that the bride started crying. And to put a cherry on top of an already horrible wedding planner, the bridal party had to return to the venue the next morning to clean up since she left without cleaning up anything which would have resulted in a cleaning fee. Needless to say she is absolutely horrible and the day would have been much smoother if she was never hired. Steer clear.
id love to start off with saying Megan was amazing at first and we both had the same ideas which made it so easy, But then things got fishy with her. We havent put a downpayment yet on the venue due to different scheduling me and my fiancé and with the hotel manager.. then the holiday came so we have to wait to go to put our downpayment which I told Megan I will not move forward til we put the downpayment down at the venue so we know what's going on, She still was in touch with ideas and what not which I loved but again she didnt need to if she felt she was being "used" when I told her I will not start til I put the payment down for the wedding, she randomly blocked me on everything, why? still no clue. so without being said I wouldn't choose her to plan your big day she's unpredictable.
Before hiring Megan I read the other negative reviews and I thought ohh that’s just a few bad experiences. I should have trusted them. Their experience was to a tee my bad experience with Megan. All of the weight was lifted off of my shoulders the day I fired her.
We hired Megan at FYM to do set up, break down & day of coordination. It turned into her trying to replan our wedding which was already done when we hired her. When we hired Megan in May we were done with the dreaming & brainstorming process. We were in the execution phase. Megan did not understand the fact that planning this wedding wasn’t my full time job.
Once we hired Megan, She began asking a million questions and that’s where the constant ideas & brainstorming began. This lead to more stress because she wouldn’t accept what I’d previously decided.
She constantly was bumping up my package to give me more and more free items. She even did my wedding Invitations at no cost, but the time, lack of quality & frustration wasn’t worth the free invites. She wouldn’t take no for an answer when I wanted to order them off of Shutterfly & had already picked out and had them in my cart. She kept finding things that needed to be done & she would beg to take them over at no additional cost In Order to control it. There is nothing free in this world and I should have realized that was a huge red flag. She wouldn’t allow me to pay for any of the additional services or items.
These are the many reasons I fired Megan at FYM:
1. Our 1 and only in person meeting she was over 30 minutes late. We were meeting at my wedding venue so that she could do a walk through. Our first in person meeting was overall unprofessional & not productive. The day was very upsetting.
2. She called me & texted me at all times of the day- during business hours while I was working.
3. Every time we spoke it was a continuous conversation of her throwing out all her ideas & not listening.
4. The lack of listening was frustrating because she never seemed to remember what I had decided on or what I wanted. She only remembered her ideas.
5. She never wanted to take my decision as the final say. This caused constant conversation and over brainstorming which was a waste of time.
Just the thought of how our wedding day could go solidified firing Megan. We made the right decision. She offers the world, but I’m not so sure she ever would have executed.
Working with megan was a breeze. Everything went great. My wedding was amazing & yes of course there’s bumps in the road but nothing that the guest would have seen. No wedding is perfect but my wedding was close to it. Everyone keeps speaking about how everything was set up so beautiful & the decor was out of this world. Megan & her team worked very hard night & day and she also added a few extras to my wedding which made it even better.
I initially wasn’t going to get a wedding planner, but my bridesmaids stepped in and got us Megan! I can’t thank her enough for her passion and love she had for our wedding.
She added the extra spark our special day needed. Megan included special treats like a mimosa bar for our bridesmaids, she made personalized cups for them, & brought us extra snacks as we all got ready.
Throughout the planning, Megan had everything under control & was constantly in contact with our other vendors. To be honest, I really didn’t have to be involved as much. That took so much stress off our hands. Our day couldn’t be more perfect with her help and her assistant, Liz. Who by the way, took photos of the reception even after our photographer/videographer had left for the evening.
Megan also provided decorations for our ceremony at the church. She put beautiful lanterns beside each pew which was amazing since my husband and I didn’t want to spend money on flowers & decorations for the church.
The day of, Megan & Liz placed a walkie talkie under our sweetheart table just so we can communicate throughout the night. That worked out marvelously! So, so, happy we had their help.
Megan & Liz are hands on! Thank you for making our day PERFECT!
I will begin with positives. Megan is enthusiastic and has a lot of fun and creative ideas. The décor at my wedding was almost entirely how I wanted it and looked great. She offers a few extras as part of her package like robes, mimosa bar, and personalized signage that were nice touches for the day. I also like that I could rent items from her that I didn’t have for very reasonable prices and she went above and beyond getting anything she didn’t already have. It’s the small things that add up.
The positives on our initial conversation drew me in but I found it difficult and honestly anxiety inducing working with Megan. I feel as though she needs to work on her professionalism and organization. Throughout the process I found that when I was ready to make decisions, she was still in brainstorming mode. I thought our meetings/conversations were scattered and didn’t use our time efficiently. All of this was manageable for me and I was willing to overlook my concerns until she missed my rehearsal. She missed the entire rehearsal and didn’t show up until we were headed to dinner. I verified that she would be there at 9am on the day of the wedding and I didn’t see her until 10am. Basically, I didn’t trust her to execute the rest of the day after that and asked my bridesmaids and other individuals to assist. Unfortunately, Megan was the cause of a lot of late-night anxiety for me leading up to the wedding. This was precisely what I had been trying to avoid by hiring a coordinator. I feel like her intentions are good, but the execution, time management and professionalism need to be improved upon.
She is enthusiastic and creative for positive start. However, she was late to every meeting, had me waiting 30 min up to an hour, disorganized, and unable to meet deadlines, among other things. I am saddened by this because I wanted a planner to take away stress, not add to it. Hopefully she does better because this is not the way you run a business. I just don't understand how a wedding planner can be late every time! I wasn't about to find out day of the wedding if she would be able to be on time.
I have not even had my wedding yet but I have been blown away by Megan and her work ethic!!! She has gone over and above for me and I do not know what I would have done if I didn’t hire her. She has been a huge blessing! If you’re looking for a planner to make your wedding vision come to life you need to hire Megan, she will do whatever it takes to make it happen. I cannot wait to see my whole wedding come together because I know it is going to be perfect!
Very professional and honest. This was the best experience for my wedding. Megan made my day special and perfect. She is hardworking, always on time and pays attention to the smallest details.
Megan is super creative and has a ton of great ideas! She was great at helping me create some signs that I needed at my wedding. I wish I met her earlier in my wedding planning as it would have saved me a lot of time and a lot less stress on me!!
Meg is amazing!! I couldn't have better things to say about working with Her. Throughout the planning process, Meg was attentive, organized and resourceful. Meg helped to alleviate any additional stress leading up to the wedding by providing helpful tips and resources that kept me and my husband on track for our big day. I would recommend her to everyone!!
Meg did a beautiful job!
