Juanita, the head of Marvelous Weddings, was our day-of wedding coordinator and she exactly fulfilled what we were looking for. We wanted to make sure that on the day itself we wou...
ldn't have to worry about last-minute details or questions, because the last thing we wanted was to be stressing out on our wedding day. Juanita made sure it was a "worry-free" day and we were able to totally focus on the things we wanted to (spending time with our family and friends). She handled last minute questions that came up with the florist and caterer so that it was stress-free for us. It was particularly helpful having a dedicated coordinator because we decided to have a social-distanced ceremony and reception due to COVID, and we wanted to make sure that everyone felt very comfortable and safe. Juanita helped to make sure that everything flowed smoothly and everyone told us that they felt comfortable and that even with all the COVID precautions the wedding felt natural and not that different after all.
