Reverie achieved their goals by fulfilling all of my dreams. Tori, the owner/operator/CEO/girlboss is a refreshing, organized, down to earth, and sweet go-getter.
I’m a project manager for a construction company, but wedding planning was NOT a ...project I would have dared to manage. I never dreamt about my wedding as a little girl, I didn’t care about flowers or color pallets, and I certainly didn’t have a “vision” for my wedding. I don’t know traditions and my family is as chaotic as they come. Tori took it all in stride, her calm demeanor and pointed questions reassured me that everything was under control. She helped create the best party I have ever attended from scratch.
Selfishly, Tori was the ying to my yang (other than my husband) as far as planning goes. The most important part of this review is this: Tori will be your ying or your yang too. She does not have a mold that you will have to fit into, Tori is a chameleon that customizes a mold for YOU by modifying her planning, decorating, and coordination styles to fit the needs of her bride (of each bride – but never once did I feel there were other brides in Tori’s life).
Whether it was family drama or relatives receiving cancer diagnoses, Tori was right there through all the major life events my husband and I experienced over the last year and a half. If I didn’t hear from Tori for 2 weeks, it just meant she was planning and coordinating without needing my input. When we would have our next phone call it was as if we spoke the day before, never skipping a beat and somehow keeping me on track despite the chaos. “What are you stressing about right now?” was her favorite question, and no matter where it was in the timeline she would help me tackle it to relieve that stress. From the beginning, Tori creates a safe space where honest opinions are rewarded, not just encouraged, because she’s planning YOUR wedding and making a mold to fit YOUR day. She is going to make all those vendors, suppliers, bartenders, band members, overbearing family members, and rogue guests follow in line with YOUR dream. But when you truly don’t know or have zero opinion, she finds one that falls in line with your style and all your Pinterest “goalz”. Her timeline sheets are INCREDIBLE work (art) of a true professional.
Did you forget to come up with a guest book and its wedding day? No problem. Tori to the rescue!
Did you cry at your rehearsal because of family drama? Tori had you cry it out for a minute, but get back out there and be present for these big moments.
Did your wedding dress get ruined in alterations 16 days before your wedding? Yes, and Tori was the #1 supporter asking for play-by-play updates and ready to spring into action or pull any string she could to fix that debacle.
While her work leading up to the big day was amazing, Tori truly thrived the day of and throughout the event that evening. The Reverie team managed all of our gifts, wedding favors, personal belongings, and challenging venue mishaps without the wedding party being bothered. I had absolutely no idea how stressful it was planning a wedding, juggling so many opinions and other people’s feelings weighed on me heavily. At the end of the day, Tori held it all on her shoulders and walked with grace. I don’t know what more a bride could ask for than to work with Reverie.
To summarize my lengthy review in 3 words: Authenticity. Organization. Peace of Mind.
