Great Day Events

e wedding. She coordinated the vendors, ensured they knew where to go and what was available at the venue, and set up the reception space for us! She was able to attend our rehearsal a few nights before and helped everyone (including our friend who officiated our wedding) to ensure the day ran smoothly. She was so pleasant to work with and very organized. I would definitely recommend GDE to anyone who is planning or needs some help coordinating their wedding.

ssues. Thank you so much, Julia!

! We also had another Sarah at the end of our big night and I can’t remember her last name but she was also amazing with helping pack up for the evening! If you’re thinking about hiring them just do it, I promise you that you won’t regret it!

g smoothly. She assisted us in making the right choices and organizing our vendors. She provided a customized timeline and layout for our big day. I found her professional and easy to work with.

modated and she was even able to help me reschedule my proposal when the weather was rough. A great experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.

available and was very understanding of our very short timeline! I can hardly find the words to express what a relief it was to work with someone so competent, kind, and calming. She gathered the feel we wanted for the wedding and was so responsible in connecting with vendors and making sure everything was on the timeline we needed. The morning of the wedding, we found ourselves short on flowers and Julia called me from a farmer's market, having found some gorgeous flowers, and brought them right to the venue! To say that she goes above and beyond would be an understatement. I can't recommend Julia highly enough. She's an absolute joy to work with and will help make your day so special--she certainly did for us!

d to none. There were so many wedding planning details that we didn't even realize we had to consider, but Julia was on top of it all and made sure that we were fully prepared for our special day. After the wedding, everyone kept telling us how incredibly well organized it was--that all the guests always knew where they were supposed to be, how they could be enjoying themselves, and what was coming next--and we can say confidently that this is 100% due to Julia and her team's diligence. If you're deliberating on whether you need a wedding coordinator--yes, you do; everyone does--and you're looking for one, look no further.

all wedding details for couples. My then fiance surprised me by planning a beautiful piano piece during the reception, and needed to be kept very secret. Julia was able to keep this important part of the reception from me so that it would be a surprise which was really special. We honestly didn't have to think about any details during the wedding day itself. Everything went smoothly and we sincerely appreciated having Julia on our planning team.

ganizer myself but this one felt different. I prayed to God and asked Him to guide me and help me decide if I should hire a wedding coordinator or not. He answered my prayer. I called Julia at exactly a month before our wedding. Her month of coordinator basically starts 2 months before your wedding but the moment I talked to her she already made me feel that I’m in good hands. The wedding ceremony is in Minneapolis and the reception is in St. Paul. Our church guests is only limited to 48 people because of the church COVID protocol. It’s really hard to make sure that the guests at the reception are okay while they wait for us to arrive from the ceremony. Julia got us covered. She has staff to take care of the reception making sure the table and decor arrangements were correct, while she was with us at the ceremony. I guarantee you that you won’t be able to find anyone as dedicated and as organized as Julia. We had several meetings with her making sure everything is perfect. I would never have thought about doing all the things she asked me about. You’re paying for expertise, contacts/network, experience, and a 12/10 customer satisfaction guarantee. My wedding was perfect. Julia exceeded my expectations. I’ll be thanking her for the rest of my life. -Patrick Sanchez (wedding June 27, 2021)

rmation we needed to get as our special day approached. She even kept us up to date on latest covid policies and helped us adapt our plans accordingly. Julia listened to every detail that we told her about our wedding day and made sure that everything happened exactly as we had hoped. On the day of our wedding, Julia and her team set up everything perfectly and always made sure everyone stayed on schedule so we never fell behind or wasted a precious moment of our day. Even though Julia had many weddings she was working on before and after ours, we never even noticed because she was always present when needed and answered emails surprisingly quick.

dn't ask for a better deal. I have never been more impressed at the professionalism of someone. Also, Julia was patient enough to take suggestions and ideas. My fiancé didn't expect a thing, in large part, thanks to Julia's awesome role!

s I have ever had the pleasurer of working with. She is organized, detail oriented, and hard working. I now recommend Great Day Events to any of my brides that are looking for a planner.

d would have on our wedding. Ultimately we went from a 250+ guest list at a large venue to a backyard wedding with 40 guests. Not only did Julia support us in the difficult decisions we had to make, she was genuinely enthusastic about our vision and helped us every step of the way. If there were any hiccups on the day-of, we would have had no idea -- everything flowed effortlessly thanks to Julia's coordination. Even family and friends commented on her incredible work, creativity and kind presence. We will look back on our day and forever be thankful for her great work in making our wedding unforgettable. We highly recommend!

e worth it. After working with Julia at Great Day Events I can say it certainly was! I thought I was a detailed oriented person, but Julia truly thinks of EVERYTHING and helps you to hand everything over a few weeks before the wedding so you can slow down. If you take your time on the planning worksheets, it will be worth your time. I will note that I did talk to two other event planning services that offered longer day of services for a cheaper price, but my first phone call with Julia convinced me that she deeply cares about her clients and that she would give me honest advice.

nt experience working with Great Day Events and I would highly recommend them!!

bride & groom, wedding party, family and guests were able to enjoy the day and witness the most beautiful wedding come together seamlessly. Thank you Julia for creating such a wonderful experience!

thing she could do to bring our vision to fruition. Julia is highly organized, responsive, and helpful. Not only was she there for us with any questions and took charge day of, the price was reasonable and 100% worth it!

I would hire her for ALL of my event planning. Julia provides a calming environment with the chaos a wedding brings. She helped me stay on task and focused on what really mattered for the wedding. I felt she really listened to what my desires were for the wedding. She helped find the right vendors and challenged me on the little things I didn’t need that were stressing me out. All the big and little things Julia and her team assisted with made Michael & I’s wedding dream come true. (He was hesitant at first because of the additional cost of a wedding planner, but he said it was the best money we spent for wedding!) HIRE HER NOW! It will be the BEST decision you make for your wedding!

- Julia & Kalley took care of everything - I didn't have to worry about anything and had the best day of my life!! If you are considering hiring an event planner or day of coordinator - DO IT! You will thank yourself later. Julia and her team are so professional - the best decision I made during wedding planning was getting them on board! Thank you Great Day Events!!
