Rachel May Weddings

tail. We opted for her “full planning” package, and it was a great decision. Rachel had a list of recommended vendors she’s worked with, which really helped us throughout the vendor selection process. She went with us to every appointment, whether it be to tour venues, do cake tastings, or meet with vendors. She always knew what questions to ask. We faced some significant challenges with the room block at our reception venue hotel, but Rachel went above & beyond to help us resolve them. She not only handled the issues leading up to the wedding, but also continued to assist us afterward until everything was sorted. Her commitment & dedication were remarkable, and we felt so supported throughout the process. On the wedding day, everything went flawlessly. Thanks to Rachel’s hard work & transparent communication, we were able to fully enjoy our day without a single worry. She managed every detail with precision! We are so grateful for everything Rachel did and can’t recommend her enough!

than just day of for us by setting up a meeting about 6 months out and sending out monthly emails with different tips and to dos. The day ran so smooth and was as perfect as I could’ve hoped for!

ssional, thorough and very detail oriented. She was only my day of coordinator but went over and beyond. She attended all my floral appointments, so she knew what I liked. She would also send me monthly check-in emails and only a call away if I had any questions. The inventory she offers in addition to a package is incredibly large with so many options to choose from. My husband kept complementing how smooth our wedding runned and it was all Rachel! You will most definitely have your dream wedding when working with her!

that was the case!! She captured our vision perfectly!

d planned was able to be done. She knows so many vendors in the area and was able to set up appointments and talk to my vendors without me having to worry. She is very professional, timely, creative and a pleasure to work with! I highly recommended using Rachel for wedding planning!!

y of the wedding, she kept everyone calm, had everything ready and where it was supposed to be so we didn't have to worry about anything and could enjoy the day. We would recommend Rachel May Weddings to EVERYONE!

ime for everything we wanted and worked with us on the day off to make changes we wanted. Many family members commented about how helpful she was. We loved using her for our wedding!

it out. She was also great to have for the weekend of our wedding. Things ran smoothly with her help. She’s also just a very nice person in general so easy to work with!

detail in helping your perfect day fall perfectly in place. If there's something you need for your wedding and don't already have, she will know where to find it for you. Rachel was absolutely amazing, and I couldn't imagine our wedding day without her as our coordinator.

roughout our wedding planning, gave extremely helpful tips, and was always a text, email, or phone call away if I was feeling unsure or overwhelmed with something. She kept everything in line and in order the day of our wedding. Including making sure our wedding party & family knew their assignments. The only thing I had to worry about wedding day was getting dolled up and marrying my best friend! She helped make our day the best and one my family / friends still talk about.

d for us. She was amazing on the fly when we had thunderstorms all day and had amazing back up plans that continued to make our day everything we ever wanted. I recommend her to everyone I know getting married in and around Houston.

most organized and thorough wedding planner. We would book her again and again!

a calm air. The next morning I panicked that I left an heirloom earing still attached to my bouquet. Rachel had already grabbed it off and placed it with my things. She was phenomenal and kept the day moving smoothly.

able and able to enjoy myself at the wedding because Rachel handled it all for myself, my husband, and our families. Best decision we made- and that’s coming from the typical type A bride that loves to plan events!

appreciated her reviewing all of our contracts and making sure everything we needed was included. She was always quick to reply and always helpful! Using her inventory is seriously the best! Wedding day everything was PERFECT. We received so many compliments on how everything flowed seamlessly. Rachel was my favorite person we worked with during the whole wedding planning process. And I cannot thank her enough! If you want your dream wedding and for the day to be stress free, hire Rachel. I guarantee you will not regret working with her!

zed. They have this decor room that you get to use to decorate the venue of your dreams! My mom and I cried afterward because it is like breaking up with Rachel and Ahna. They become family!

ired, but also whenever we had a question or needed advice during the 10 months leading up to our Big Day. We feel so fortunate to have had such a talented and professional wedding planner. From timelines, to inventory, to vendor coordination, Ahna was prepared and executed our vision perfectly. Our wedding was incredible, thanks in large part to Ahna and Rachel May Weddings. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

she answered all my questions plus more, and I genuinely believe that it’s because of her and her team that I had absolutely ZERO stress. I cannot even begin to describe how amazing they were the day of the wedding. Literally everyone was asking about Rachel! My 10 year old daughter even mentioned to me how extremely helpful and kind she was to her and everyone around her!! Brides I can guarantee you will not regret hiring Rachel, no need to look any further! ❤️❤️

d know exactly how to make your day run as smoothly as possible. I don't know how I would've survived the day without them!

gh the process in the many months leading up. They welcomed any and all questions we had throughout all of our planning which really proved to be invaluable. When we had trouble finding a caterer we liked who was within our budget, and Rachel gave us the perfect recommendation. Rachel also offered us the use of her extensive inventory of décor like signs and table displays, and took care of all the transportation and setup for us for a very reasonable fee. The day of our wedding went so smoothly - Rachel and Ahna were really on top of everything and we were just able to enjoy the moment with our family and friends. If we could do it again, we would hire them for full services, we trust them completely!

celess. Thank you Ahna. Highly recommend’

reate a timeline, review vendor contracts, and I also used the additional rental package they offer to rent votives, candles, cake stands, "reserved" signs for the ceremony, a honeymoon fund box, and so many other things. Having them take care of all of those little details saved me so much time and energy, and I'm SO thankful that was an option. Anytime I had a question about anything, I knew I could text or email them and they would help me figure it out. They're great at communication in general - I never felt stressed about reaching them! On the day of our wedding, they made everything run so smoothly. If there were any hiccups, I didn't find out about them until after the wedding because they were behind the scenes handling everything. Rachel even helped my mom glue her earring back together when a part of it came loose, and thanks to the emergency kit that Rachel and Ahna bring, my mom was also able to help me sew a button back onto my dress before the ceremony. Also a big bonus - Rachel and Ahna had good relationships with pretty much every single vendor we hired, which made everything that much easier. They knew how each vendor preferred to do things, how to best communicate with them, etc. I can't say enough about how amazing Rachel and Ahna are. Hiring them was by far one of the best decisions I made for my wedding.

onally have never been to a wedding where everything went perfectly according to plan, so it was important to me to find a team of vendors that knew how to improvise and execute solutions on the fly when things inevitably go off script. From yucky weather and things showing up late to battling photographers, Rachel and Ahna were on top of everything. They moved things inside and made adjustments to keep things looking spectacular. They worked around the late arrivals without pressuring anyone on their time, which kept the mood light and happy. They played defense for the photographer we actually hired and kept our family friend gone rogue photographer out of her hair (and mine). They even managed to bustle my dress in 15 seconds! That sounds like an unnecessary skill, but when your DJ is already announcing your bridal party and you're moments away from your grand entrance and NEED your dress bustled, it matters! Hire Rachel May Weddings. You won't regret it.

to work with. She was that and more! I loved how she was always communicating with me and helping me throughout the process. Even though she and Ahna were hired as the month of planners, they were there every step of the way. There were always responses via email and text. And we in person often to go over her inventory and the timeline. I used quite a few vendors that she recommended, and my wedding day was so much fun! Everything went smoothly and no one came to me for anything. Mostly because she and Ahna planned out all of the details before the wedding day. Thanks to that, there were fewer mistakes that could happen the day of. I was so happy that I was able to eat and enjoy my own wedding. They took care of EVERYTHING the day of the wedding. From setting up and directing people, I did not have to lift a finger. Just spent my time getting ready and feeling relaxed on the wedding day. Rachel and Ahna are the sweetest, most reliable people that you could hope to work with. Thank you for being so thoughtful and helpful throughout the process!

o worry about a thing on our wedding day! Rachel and Ahna took care of everything! They made our wedding so beautiful and so perfect! They were so helpful throughout the entire preparation process and on the day of our wedding. They truly delivered! They both were responsive and quick to answer any questions and/or concerns that we had. They are extremely knowledgeable, and just when we thought we had it all together they came up with other considerations we had never considered. They are also extremely detail-oriented, items that we didn’t think to have or forgot they provided from their inventory. Which I strongly recommend taking advantage of. Our wedding ran so smoothly and so effortlessly because of them two. I just can’t thank them enough for their awesome services and for them both going above and beyond.

rdinator, and I didn't think we needed one; I thought that was just a waste of money, but Rachel (and Ahna) turned out to be the absolute BEST money we spent throughout the whole wedding process. Hiring them was the best wedding decision we made! As a COVID wedding that had to be postponed multiple times and ended up being a 3 year process, Rachel and Ahna did 3 years worth of exceptional work...when we only hired them as a day of coordinator! We are still mindblown by the amount of work they did for the cost. Rachel took so much off my plate and took on so many of the little details that would have added up to be stressful for us to complete. They are unreal! We had many meetings (in person and virtual) with them, and from the get go, they were super knowledgeable and on top of every little detail that I would NEVER even consider. They were professional but also laid back and friendly, and also very accommodating. They were personable, not intimidating, relatable, and down to earth. They were extremely quick to reply and did so happily. They have close relationships with The Farmhouse and with so many of the other vendors we used, which made the process so seamless and easy; they definitely know their stuff! They went above and beyond in so many ways, both big and small. They listened to us, gave their expertise and insight, but ultimately would take my ideas that probably weren't the best and went all in with them by saying "let's do it". I never once felt pressured to go with their ideas over our own. When we had one slight communication issue, Rachel was understanding, respectful, and honest- and we were able to immediately move on from that. I have no idea how they keep all this info. straight! Even if we went awhile without talking (only due to the lengthy COVID wedding process), Rachel and Ahna still remembered every single detail. I never felt like I had to remind them or play catch up. Rachel's inventory of wedding decor is impressive. There were so many options that gave us the exact style that we were envisioning- all for an absolute steal of a cost! Not to mention that it made the decorating process a million times easier and less stressful. By the end of this process, they feel like our friends and I will miss the communication with them! My mom burst into tears (which is so not her personality!) when she met Rachel on the day of the wedding- simply because she was so grateful for all Rachel and Ahna had done to help us throughout this crazy long process! My dad is still raving about them and wishing we could have paid them more. At the wedding, I went up to Rachel a few times to chat about how things were going- not because it was necessary but because I wanted to and she felt like just another friend or guest that was there. When something at the reception went wrong (that was 100% unrelated to Rachel and Ahna and was completely out of our control), Rachel let me vent and even told me "Let me take your anger for you" as she completely dealt with the issue so we didn't have to. Simply put, I can not think of one more vendor or service that was more pivotal and important for our wedding day and/or wedding process. From beginning to end, they made our wedding the absolute best it could be, and we are forever grateful!

she responded that same day. Rachel has so much knowledge about the industry and it made wedding planning so much easier. She put us in contact with an incredible vendor team to make my vision come to life. The day of the wedding everything went soooo smoothly, I was shocked at how much I was able to relax and not think about anything. Rachel handled everything and remembered every detail we had talked about throughout the planning process. She never missed a beat and made the whole experience incredible. By the end of my engagement Rachel and Ahna were truly family. I cannot recommend them enough

services and I absolutely loved working with Rachel and Ahna. These ladies have an eye for every single detail; down to the most minor details that I didn't even think of, they thought about it. From vendor recommendations to the floor plan, they helped my vision of an Up themed wedding come to life without looking like a child's party, but a fun, beautiful, and whimsical wedding. My husband and I thought we would be stressing out the day of the wedding trying to get everything covered, but we were so wrong. Rachel and Ahna had EVERYTHING under control! They worked with our vendors to make sure everything ran as smooth as possible. Everything was so organized and perfect that my husband and I actually were able to dance all night, sneak away to have alone time, and soak every single moment in. By the end of the night, everyone knew, if there was something they had a question about, to go to Rachel and Ahna. I was actually sad at the end of the night, because I knew that our meetings would be over and that I wouldn't be able to spend as much time with these two anymore. Throughout this process, we got to know one another, laugh, and make great memories. They helped me plan a wedding through a pandemic and a crazy winter storm. Anything I was stressed out about or freaking out about, they listened and reassured me with a plan on why things would go great. These two are so awesome and if I renew my vows with my husband one day, these two will be my only option.

I would recommend them to anyone and everyone 🥰🥰

the florist consultations with me and helping my vision come to life, to full use of her extensive wedding inventory, to the actual day off… everything was beyond flawless. The day could not have ran more smoothly. My mom and I both felt we were guests at our own event! I cannot recommend them enough.

leading up to my wedding and that was because of them. They gave us amazing suggestions and took care of us down to the smallest detail. They made the venue and the wedding as a whole absolutely magical. I could not have asked for anything more than their outstanding service. They are kind, professional , and just so enjoyable to be around. They are the absolute BEST choice you could make for your wedding!

est day. Ahna was an amazing day-of coordinator and really went above and beyond! They also offer a full rental inventory with their services, which is an unbelievable deal! They helped take so much stress off our big day and handled every curveball and crazy COVID wedding challenge thrown their way. I seriously can’t say enough good things about Rachel May Weddings. If you’re thinking of booking with them, do yourself a favor and book now!!

e to make you feel like family. Rachel is literally the best coordinator and we couldn't have had a better day. She made the whole planning process smooth and easy. Rachel and Ana are also amazing at decorating and making your dream wedding come true. The day of was so smooth, we never had to worry about a thing. We would get married all over again, just so we can work with these ladies again!!

ything and I was able to really enjoy time with my friends and family. I’m very picky and she was able to execute my vision perfectly and BEAUTIFULLY with her assistant! My wedding was a dream and everything I wanted. I had many of my bridesmaids tell me how smooth everything was. I would hire Rachel all over againnnn. 🤩

ressful and a lot more enjoyable! If you are looking for a wedding planner Rachel is definitely the way to go!

ful she was very sweet, funny, and a unique person, she was seriously someone you want to help you on your wedding day! She is very flexible when it came to meeting with her or reaching out to her. Thank y’all for making our special day easier and less stressful!

ing that everything would be taken care of and would be perfect. Certainly, we had difficulty given we had planned the wedding pre-COVID and rescheduling the wedding was quite a task. Time and time again Rachel came through for us. On our wedding day, Rachel demonstrated considerable problem solving skills to handle issues and coordinate the entire day. It was the perfect day that we will always remember and it would not have been possible without her. Here are a few key points about hiring Rachel: - Extremely responsive to texts or emails - Very organized - Problem solving skills on the day of - Huge inventory to choose from - Confident and experienced - Actually cares about your wedding - Sincere - Adjusts to your preferences and personalities

onal, and always responsive. From our first meeting she put the two of us at ease and walked us through the process. One of the things that make her standout is her wedding inventory, Many planners we talked to either 1) don’t have their own inventory of wedding decor or 2) have a very small and insignificant amount of decor you would actually want. Do yourself a favor and look at her inventory. You will most likely find almost everything you need at a very, very reasonable price! Rachel made the planning of the wedding so effortless and smooth. We completely and unequivocally recommend her! Thank you so much for all hard work Rachel!

s about the things we want for our wedding and takes her job seriously. With a laid back personality, she helps calm me down when I start letting the stress overwhelm me and she has so many great recommendations, resources, and vendors. Also, her inventory is awesome! I would highly recommend Rachel May to anyone getting married. No matter how big or small the wedding, she will bring your vision to life!

ommendations (who were all amazing) and supporting me with any other question during the planning process. Ahna was my main coordinator and she was always just a quick text away and so sweet and helpful. Honestly, my best investment for our wedding!

o 23 guests due to COVID, and she helped make it be the most memorable day despite the reduced guest count. I couldn't of asked for a better planner!

avis and I. They’re so sweet, super professional, and I wouldnt have hired anyone different. I love you guys and thank you for everything 💗

re so attentive and on top of everything for our wedding! They are so professional, kind, organized, and talented at what they do. I couldn't recommend these two more! The both truly went above and beyond what was expected and helped create such a beautiful and special night for us!
