BEST TEAM FOR THE BEST DAY EVER!
I hired Leilani Weddings for my month of coordination. From the first phone call with Danielle, I knew right off the bat that Danielle knows her stuff and that I needed her on my team. I was a little nervous a...bout my budget, since I didn’t want to actually hire a wedding planner for the month of/day of. Especially, if I was already going to be planning most of the décor myself. My now husband ;) listened in on my first call with Danielle and was just as impressed as I was. He convinced me that it would be worth it to spend a little extra on our wedding planner to ensure we don’t experience any stress on our big day and so that things could run as seamless as possible. BOY WAS HE RIGHT!
After my initial call, I didn’t hear from Danielle or her team until the month of the wedding. Which was expected. (I did reach out once or twice prior with questions and did receive a prompt responses.) We had a conference call the first day of my month of planning, they provide an excel google doc that is very detailed and includes information such as, vendors, bridal party, family, most importantly the day-of-timeline. I made an error when filling out the google doc and saved it to my desktop rather than saving on the google doc. Danielle and her team took care of correcting my mistake and re-entered all of the information for me, they ensured the google doc was up to date at all times, and they updated the day of timeline as necessary. After this call, I already knew I made the right choice. There was a change, in my leading wedding coordinator, and I was a little worried at first. However, it ended up being a BIG blessing. Taylor Oyebadejo was assigned to be my leading coordinator, and she was so professional, very SWEET, easy to work with, and would recommend her to EVERY couple!
Leading up to the big day, Taylor & her team did help with making suggestions on additional décor items and helped with the purchase/rental of items that were still needed. She constantly checked in on me during the month of my wedding, she made sure I wasn’t worried about anything. On the big day, Taylor & her team were there on time, they set up ALL of my personal décor items, (which included hanging up a neon sign, putting together the party favors, and much more) organized the wedding party, and worked effectively with all of the vendors. They too had nothing but good things to say about Taylor & her team.
There were also little things that Taylor & her team did throughout the day that meant so much to us, like: 1. Making sure I had a drink & appetizer right after we said I do! (Very Important LOL) 2. Grabbing our coats when we were cold. 3. Holding my lipgloss & purse, also helping me touch up during pictures 4. Checking in on us to ensure we were ok! 5. Bustling my dress.
They made me feel so reassured and confident that they would take care of everything. I literally handed everything over to them after our first month of call and trusted that they would take care of everything. And they DID, seamlessly and exceeding all expectations. I cannot thank them enough for being there on my big day. I was actually emotional the days following my wedding, I felt like Taylor and her Team were my very SUPPORTIVE friends LOL.
In summary of my long but very much deserved review, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. It was an amazing experience and I was SO blessed to have Taylor, Danielle & the Leilani Team on my side.
