Ashley McCallister was nothing short of a God-send. From the moment we met her, it was evident that we were in the most capable hands. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and organized professional to guide us through our special day.
Ashley went above and beyond our expectations from the beginning by crafting a detailed and down-to-the-minute schedule for our wedding day. She left no stone unturned, ensuring that every moment flowed seamlessly into the next. And just when we thought her organizational skills couldn't get any better, she surprised us with a contingency plan for every possible scenario that might arise. Her foresight and preparedness gave us tremendous peace of mind.
For example, two moments from our experience with Ashley perfectly encapsulate why she is a must-have for your wedding:
First, about a week leading up to our wedding, Ashley was calling all of our vendors and ensuring that would be ready and prepared for our day. When she called the company that was catering our food, they told her that we never booked with them. Ashley calmly called a contact she had from another wedding she did, and almost immediately ensured that we had food, caterers, and people to deliver the food to our venue. She didn’t even give us time to be stressed about it.
Secondly, on the day of the wedding, as the groom, I discovered a stain on the rented suit that I had somehow missed during the fittings. Before panic could even set in, I simply texted Ashley and she came equipped with a bag of emergency essentials for every thing that could possibly go wrong. She had literally thought of everything, and again, before I could even be stressed about it, she whipped out a tide pen and resolved the issue in no time. Ashley quite literally prevented any and all stress on the day of our wedding, and I can’t even begin to explain how much it means to us.
But Ashley's excellence extended beyond her extraordinary organizational skills. She was more than just a coordinator; she was a true friend throughout the process. Her infectious enthusiasm and genuine care made her an absolute joy to work with. She brought a sense of fun and positivity to the wedding preparations, which made the journey even more enjoyable. It felt like we were planning the wedding with someone who genuinely shared in our excitement.
The wedding day itself was a testament to Ashley's brilliance. Despite the inevitable last-minute changes and unforeseen hiccups, she handled everything with grace and poise. Her ability to pivot and adapt on the spot ensured that every challenge was overcome seamlessly, leaving us free to savor every moment of our special day.
I honestly cannot imagine how our wedding would have unfolded without Ashley by our side. If you're looking for a wedding coordinator who is not only exceptional at her job but also becomes a cherished friend in the process, Ashley is the one. We cannot recommend her enough, and we are forever grateful for the magic she brought into our lives on our wedding day. Thank you, Ashley, for making our dreams come true!
