You want Allie from Polka Dot Events on your team. My husband and I reached out to Polka Dot for month-of planning services. From initial correspondence, to our hand-off meeting, to our big day, she was an absolute super star. So organized, so ...attentive, always one step ahead. When my husband and I originally started planning, we were skeptical about hiring a planner or coordinator. Weddings are expensive! Did we really need to spend thousands extra? We did. We really did. Now, a few weeks after our wedding, I can confidently say that Allie was 100% worth every penny. She handled essential communication, wrangled relatives for photos, set up our decorations, made sure the ceremony and reception were timed correctly, fed the bridal party, made sure our vendors were paid and tipped, researched after party venues and made us a reservation, and even grabbed us a little plate of hors d’oeuvres when we were hungry during cocktail hour…. plus a million other little tasks. The day was amazing because it was virtually stress-free. Allie played a huge part in that. We knew she had everything covered. As a result, we have nothing but happy memories from our wedding, and that is priceless.
