Tara is amazing! She turned our dream into a wedding with beautiful flowers, an arch, chairs, a rehearsal, day of ceremony officiant and day of coordination. She did everything! Ta...
ra communicates well, and is so kind and fun! Her micro wedding package is worth every penny!
I live in a different time zone and do not have access to my phone during the day and she worked with my schedule to take meetings. I appreciate her so much and would 100% recommend her. Thank You Marry Me Now Weddings!!!

tely beautiful. We didnt have many decorations for our cermony and honestly because of her arrangements we didnt need any.She guided us through our wedding keeping us on time and never missing a beat even after several hurdles were thrown her way. We had a detailed itinerary so we knew exactly what was ahead every step of the wedding. My wife was less stressed and able to just enjoy her day and for me that was the ultimate goal. She definitly will get my recommendation to anyone I know in the future who is looking for a wedding cordinator ,and to whoever may be reading this in the future.

ortal was easy to navigate. Tara and her team were responsive. Tara was agile, joining us for a last minute trip to our venue in St. Augustine and able to shift as we changed our wedding decor plans. Tara was kind, patient, and always willing to answer questions. Most importantly, we didn’t have to worry about a thing on our wedding day. Tara and Tasha made sure our day went on without a hitch. 10/10 would recommend!!

So be aware, to remember to bring whatever items you need for your special ceremony. Rest assured, Tara will do a great job for your ceremony regardless because she executes well.
