I can't say enough about Melissa and her assistant! From the initial meeting to the day of, Melissa was amazing. She was detailed and made sure that everything was ready leading up to the big day. She was so on top of everything the day of that I didn't have to worry about anything, including the marriage license! She kept me calm, but on time, and managed everything perfectly - my sister-in-law even wanted to hire her after seeing how seamlessly everything went.
I worked with Melissa as my day-of coordinator and it was a breeze! I arrived at the venue with all my decorations, place cards, table numbers, etc, and never had to think about them again. Melissa and her team arranged everything for me and coordinated with all the vendors. I didn't have to lift a finger the whole day. She kept us on time and gently guided us when it was time for specific events like the cake cutting. She also helped pack up cars at the end of the night with all our stuff, and even saved the top layer of our cake without us asking -- it was the best surprise. Our other vendors raved about her and were excited to work with her.
Melissa was a dream to work with! She made my vision come to life even better than I ever thought it could be. As a wedding vendor myself, it was hard to put my trust in someone else to pull off all the little details I know I wanted for my day, but she was on top of every little thing and then some and made our whole wedding weekend go so smoothly. If I could give her a million stars I would! Thank you Melissa!!
I can’t say enough good things about Melissa and her team - if you’re thinking of working with her, just do it! Melissa provided day of coordinator services for my wedding and she did an outstanding job. Not only did she guide us through the final days leading up to our wedding and executed our vision perfectly, she helped me with multiple vendor recommendations and provided great advice. Melissa was very accommodating when we needed to postpone our wedding due to covid and when we put into place covid safety protocols. Melissa was consistently a calm, positive presence in our wedding planning process for which I am eternally grateful. Hiring Melissa was hands down the best money we spent on our wedding.
Melissa is wonderful! We utilized her wedding coordination services for our 50 person wedding in May. From the start, Melissa was kind and competent, and gave us the reassurance we needed that details would be handled on the big day! She and her teammate Jenna made it all happen – from picking up our florals to directing the bus driver to our venue, and even helping with niece/nephew potty emergencies! They were our go-to’s but honestly made it so we did not need to think about logistics and instead could enjoy the festivities! Look no further...Melissa's your girl!
Melissa was great!! Super responsive and organized, her management was more than we could've asked for. Would definitely recommend!
Melissa is extremely nice, calm, professional, and so easy to work with. I found her connection to a variety of vendors very helpful for planning and she came to my rescue on last minute mishaps due to weather. I definitely recommend working with her.
Melissa was fabulous to work with! From day 1, I didn't have a doubt she would do a great job coordinating our wedding. We asked a lot of her with different ceremony and reception sites, but she did an awesome job with everything. Her staff were also so helpful and very professional. We got many comments from family and friends on how seamless Melissa and co. made the day. Would definitely recommend to any couple!
We found and interviewed three wedding coordinating services for our wedding and chose Melissa Marie Events. We had good interaction with her and met with her assistant, Jenna, who became the point person for our day. Jenna maintained frequent and good communication with us as well as maintained timely communication with the vendors to make our wedding a success.
We used a couple in person meetings along with emails and phone calls to get to know Jenna and flush out the program for the day.
Having a wedding coordinator is essential whether it is a big or small wedding and we are very thankful we were able to book Melissa Marie Events. We highly recommend giving them a call.
Melissa and her team are terrific to work with! I felt that by having Melissa there, there was a sense of relief for not only me but for my family and friends since we didn't have to worry about those little details or things that pop up on the wedding day. Everything was done exactly as I had in mind. I would absolutely recommend Melissa for your event!
I could not have asked more from Melissa on my big day. She helped us out as our day-of coordinator, and was so incredibly organized, thoughtful, and kind. I did not need to worry about absolutely anything at all, and could just focus on having fun :) cannot recommend her highly enough!
We hired Melissa to be our day-of coordinator for our wedding, but she was so much more than that. She was on hand to answer many of my questions before hand and help to organize our vendors. She met us at the venue several times before the wedding to familiarize herself with our vendors and the venue - which I really appreciated because the venue was new to hosting weddings. She was in contact with everyone to make sure they knew where and when they needed to show up. I was confident going into our wedding day knowing that Melissa was there to make everything run smoothly, and it did! Would HIGHLY recommend working with Melissa.
I cannot say enough great things about Melissa! She was simply amazing! She went above and beyond for both my husband and I to make sure our wedding was exactly what we envisioned! I hired Melissa for day of coordination. She made sure that I never worried about a thing and I actually enjoyed my wedding without having to deal with any “behind the scenes” stuff. She’s simply the best!
I don't know what I would have done without Jenna and her Day of Coordination magic! Our wedding reception had a lot of moving pieces (since we didn't have a catering team), but Jenna just rolled with it. Jenna and her team made sure that every little detail was carefully arranged and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. She also provided great ideas and suggestions which we easily incorporated into our day. I am 100% sure that her work is what made the day so great!
Melissa and Jenna helped make our day run smoothly. We booked to have the day of coordinating. Melissa was quick to response to vendor questions, attended our 90 day meeting with the venue and helped us plan our ceremony during our rehearsal! For the day of the wedding they made sure everything was perfect! They set up all our decorations and helped to take them down. They made sure everything got packed up and given to the right person at the end of the night. I am so thankful for Melissa and Jenna. They took a lot of stress of myself the groom and our parents! I would recommend them 100%.
Melissa provided us day of coordinator package, and we couldn't be happier we chose her! She did a phenomenal job setting up the reception room and helping our throughout the night as needed. She called all of our vendors prior and make sure everyone knew where to be and the time. We couldn't recommend her services enough!! Look no further!!!
Melissa and her team were incredible!! Every detail was tended to, every centerpiece/homemade item was packed up and safely stored, and most importantly, every potential bump in the road was handled with professionalism and calm assurance :) I highly recommend Melissa for your wedding day needs!
We hired Melissa to help us organize the planning of our wedding and to be the coordinator the day-of. From start to finish, Melissa was a responsive, cool, and collected coordinator, who helped us keep track of decisions, stay on deadlines, and make sure all the vendors were in order. (This was really important for us because both my spouse and I are a bit scattered.) She really shined, though, on the day of: her and her assistant took care of absolutely everything, from the flower setup in the morning to cleaning up and dropping our gifts off in our room on her way home. Their amazing efforts enabled both my spouse and I to participate in and enjoy our wedding day to the fullest, without having to worry about the details. In the end, we were definitely very glad that we had hired her and would recommend her to anyone looking for extra assistance in organizing a wedding and coordinating the day-of.
Working with Melissa was an absolute wonder. From the beginning she was energetic and enthusiastic about our wedding and was a huge help. We didn't know all the details that we wanted, but every time we asked Melissa for suggestions she would have three or four great ones. She helped us with the rehearsal and know all the right questions to ask of us, the wedding party, and the venue. On the day of the wedding, she and her assistant were incredibly attentive. When they were asked to do something, they would do it quickly and affectively. We didn't have to worry about any detail because she was on it. Our wedding was so much better because she was there through all of it and we couldn't be happier we hired her.
Melissa was amazing to work and made the wedding planning process and day seamless. She went out of her way to make sure that we were comfortable throughout and was extremely attentive to small details I may not have noticed. Throughout the planning process, she was thoughtful with her suggestions and guidance and helped tailor a wedding that fit our ethos and personalities. I highly recommend her.
I cannot recommend Melissa enough - she is worth every penny (and then some!) to help your big day run smoothly. From putting out small fires (missing shuttles) to making sure everything runs on time, to setting up and packing the car at the end of the night, Melissa had every detail covered. Even before the wedding, she was very responsive to emails and questions and provided valuable guidance and input. Her assistant, Jenna, was also amazing and her calm demeanor kept me calm the whole night. Hiring Melissa and her team was definitely one of the best decisions for our wedding day!
Melissa helped me to plan some of the final details of my wedding and on the day of as my onsite coordinator. With her help (and her assistants) my wedding had order and I got to enjoy my day with little thought to the details of making it run. She helped me to locate vendors and got me a stellar deal on florals and a DJ (seriously, she saved me like $1k). She was always quick to respond and didn't mind getting her hands dirty the day of - she set up all of my centerpieces in an outdoor wedding when it was 80 degrees while still looking put together and professional. I would highly recommend her to any brides looking for a coordinator.
Melissa and her team made it so easy. She was wonderful to work with on the day of and everything went off without a hitch (at least to me). I would recommend her 1000000000x
Melissa was our day-of coordinator for our wedding at Zingerman's Cornman Farms. She is terrific. She was super knowledgeable and detailed. We thoroughly enjoyed working with her and would recommend her to anyone else looking for a planner or day-of coordinator. By working with Melissa, we truly had a stress free wedding day, and our families and bridal parties did, too. She was worth every penny! :)
Melissa is amazing. Her and her team are exactly the people you want on your big day. She made sure all the details were in line and communicated with the other vendors to ensure no detail was left undone. The experience and sense of calm that her and her team brings is unparalleled. You will not be sorry booking her!
Melissa is amazing! We hired her for our day of coordination, which included our rehearsal and wedding day. She went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and confident in knowing that everything would be just the way I imagined on our wedding day. She did that, and more! She is very talented, trust worthy, and reliable; I am so thankful she was a part of our day.
Melissa is fantastic. She truly brought my wedding to life. We hired her for wedding management and it was easily the best decision I could have made. She went above and beyond for me and my guests, and even helped my BMs get the bustle up when none of us could remember or figure out how to do it! Melissa and her team are a must have for your big day. She is truly amazing.
Melissa provided Day Of Coordination services for our wedding day, and we could not have been happier with the service she provided. She helped me create a detailed wedding timeline and worked with all of our vendors to ensure that everything went off without a hitch. Melissa was always two steps ahead of me and made it so we didn't have to worry about a single thing on our wedding day and could simply enjoy every moment. Being able to simply show up to the ceremony and reception and have everything be PERFECT (seriously, there wasn't a single issue) was truly amazing. Melissa is so sweet and easy to work with. I'm not sure how she does it, but I swear she or Jenna were right there every time I turned around with a question or need on our wedding day. I would recommend Melissa Marie Events without hesitation!!
Melissa couldn't have given me anything more, she was able to do everything I asked and give me the peace of mind that I wanted. She was the only coordinator I met with, I just knew she was what I needed and from our first meeting to the last minute of my reception she was fantastic. I couldn't say enough about her and her assistant, I hope that other brides give themselves the same peace of mind and have her there for their big day too. I promise, she's worth it.
Melissa, Jenna, and Bri were amazing! They took care of all the little things I was stressed about and made sure everything ran smoothly and on time. I could not imagine what the wedding would have been like without all their help and presence throughout the day, from dealing with shuttles to and from the venue, to fixing my grandmother's dress, they were on top of everything, making sure any hiccups along the way were addressed asap. Their lists and planning advice helped us make sure we didn't forget anything throughout the planning process as well!
I cannot say enough good things about Melissa and her team! We used Melissa as our day of coordinator and she did just that and more! Our venue didn't provide anything but the building so we had a lot of vendors and a lot of moving parts and Melissa made all of it come together perfectly. The few hiccups that did occur Melissa handled quickly and discreetly and I wouldn't have even known if I hadn't been told. I would highly recommend Melissa to any bride looking to have a smooth, beautiful, stress free wedding day!
Melissa and her assistant Bri were amazing! Hiring Melissa was the best decision I made while planning my wedding! I hired her for the day of my wedding and she took care of everything! She dealt with a not so nice bus company, hung lights in the barn for me, put out all the decorations, coordinated with my vendors, and then took everything down at the end of the night! Everything was so beautifully done and to not have to stress about a single thing on the wedding day was wonderful! Melissa was so personable and easy to work with. She also helped me develop a day of schedule which made planning easier! I would highly recommend using Melissa Marie Events for your wedding!
Having Melissa's team there on our wedding day was HUGE. I was hesitant to hire a wedding coordinator but I am so happy that my husband convinced me to do it -- these ladies are worth their weight in gold! They handled every little thing that came up before and during the wedding, which meant my husband and I could just relax and enjoy the day with our friends and family. I cannot recommend them enough -- from the moment we first met Melissa, Caitlin, and Bri they were 100% professional, attentive, and focused on the details that we hadn't considered. Thank you!
I mostly needed someone for the ceremony, to coordinate so that my day was stress free and that's what Melissa provided. The way she decorated our venue was fantastic, and everything was taken down, packed up and in my vehicle ready to go. I didn't have to worry about a thing ! I highly recommend her!
We hired Melissa Marie Events for Day Of coordination and we couldn't be happier with the service we received. Melissa was so helpful and easy to work with. Melissa and Jenna were the calming presence I needed on the big day. I felt confident they could handle anything that happened. It was so nice to hand things off to them and enjoy the day without worry. I was the one who wanted to hire a coordinator, but after the wedding my husband raved about how amazing Melissa's services were. We both agree that Melissa and her team were worth every penny and we'd recommend them to anyone!
Melissa helped make our dream farmhouse wedding a reality. She was easy to communicate with, which was important as we did not live in state. She was able to provide wonderful advice for vendors and helped us stay within our budget. She even provided and decorated the arch that we were married under. Melissa was able to make our vision a reality and helped bring it all together the day of the wedding. She is an excellent choice for a wedding planner and I highly recommend working with her!
Melissa helped us find our dream venue! She ensured our wedding looked gorgeous, handled all of the decorations, set up and tear down, and our big day looked beautiful. Melissa also recommended amazing vendors - our DJ and Photographer were phenomenal. Melissa also did our flowers, and they were absolutely stunning. Would highly recommend her and her team!
Melissa was awesome. She was there for whatever I needed, which was providing a lot of information in the beginning; how much to pay for a photographer, DJ recommendations, etc... She provided a strong vendor list. Everyone she recommended provided a high level of service.
We had a perfect wedding. Melissa and her team made sure all the details were in place and taken care of. I can't say enough good things. She made it easy to enjoy the day. If there was a detail that I couldn't make a decision on, (i.e, does the pastor use a mic or not) I deferred to her. My parents and friends were able to have fun and enjoy our wedding. Melissa has a very calm and relaxing presence - which was needed the day of our wedding. Nothing could startle her. Melissa was perfect. I'm very happy I chose to use Melissa and would make the same decision again in a heartbeat.
Hiring Melissa was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We wanted our wedding day to be stress free for our families-- and Melissa made sure this was possible. She helped us create a seamless timeline and adjusted any time we made changes to plans. Her and her assistant fully set up and took down all decorations and supplies for our ceremony and reception and helped to make the day work seamlessly. Anyone who does not hire her will regret it! Best day of our lives :)
Melissa Marie Events was just amazing! They took care of so many details of our wedding so that we could just sit back and enjoy our day. Also, they did a beautiful job setting up our decor - it was all better than I could have imagined. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!
Melissa and her team were fantastic. She was a lifesaver for me the day of the wedding. She helped with everything from being the point person for all of my vendors to helping me with a wardrobe malfunction as she came prepped with a sewing kit! To any bride who is considering a day of coordinator, it is a must! Melissa helps you to ensure everything goes just as planned so you can be present in your big day and just enjoy it! Thanks again Melissa and team!
Melissa and her team were great on my wedding day. My day would not come together as I envisioned without them. Her team picked up my flowers from the florist and set up all decorations according to pics I provided, and served as the main point of contact for all vendors - would definitely recommend! Thanks Melissa
Melissa and her team did such an amazing job with our September 17th wedding. They delivered beautiful flowers and decorations at a low cost and with very little direction from me. They really were able to take my vision and run with it. I appreciated their communication and willingness to take on last minute duties. We hired Melissa Marie Events for Wedding Weekend Coordination and Floral. I am VERY satisfied with their services.
Melissa was wonderful to work with, very friendly yet professional. Easy to communicate with and met with us both at the church and reception site prior to our wedding. She was so much more than just a "day-of" coordinator. She had every detail covered before I even thought of it! Would definitely recommend to all brides!
Melissa from Melissa Marie Events was amazing. She truly went above and beyond the call of duty, as far as meeting with me several times ahead of time and always being available via email and phone when I had new ideas or questions. She is also just a lovely and sweet person. I would recommend her a hundred times over.
Melissa was fantastic to work with. She was helpful in determining the time line for the day of and critical the actual day of the wedding. She helped get all of our "extras" to the venue (escort cards, gift card holders, family photos, toasting flutes, bathroom baskets, etc etc) The list goes on and on. She was critical to helping with so many little things we hadn't thought of! (Moving the flower vases to the limo, moving bridesmaids bags to the limo during the ceremony, etc etc). Making our day easier and smooth.
Thanks for all your help!!
Melissa was so helpful. I am really glad that we decided to go with a planner, she was great when I was very indecisive on things and she had tons of wonderful ideas for everything.
Melissa Osborne from All About You Productions is a fantastic day of coordinator, although I would have to say she did so much more than "just" day of coordinate!! We met twice before the wedding to go through every detail. She contacted every vendor to confirm and coordinate their arrival on the wedding day. Melissa had so many great suggestions, she offered to help us find a band and gave all kinds of design suggestions.
As we got closer to the wedding day, she was in contact with me everyday checking to see that everything was in order and to see if I needed anything--a great assett to a bride who was feeling a lot of anxiety leading up to the big day!! It was so comforting to know she was there to lean on if something went wrong!
Beyond running our rehearsal AND organizing ALL of the day of tasks and vendors, she was the constant calm that my family and I needed! We didn't have to think of or worry about anything the entire day because Melissa had assured us she would be there to take care of everything :)
She came to my hotel room the morning of to make sure everything was going as planned and to pick up some last minute items... we forgot to give her something she needed to hang some of our decor, so she just stopped on the way to the venue and bought them herself... I honestly don't know how we would have pulled off all of the amazing details at our wedding without Melissa!! She made sure everything was where it needed to be and EVEN stayed all the way until the end of the night to help us pack everything into our cars--just over the top helpful! She truly was a godsend on the wedding day!
I could go on and on and on about what a great service Melissa offers--but I am sure you are getting the picture :) I recommend her to every bride, all of her services are fantastic!! It is worth every penny to have the peace of mind that someone with experience and expertise is there to help you, troubleshoot and handle the little issues. She is a bride's dream!
