There are not enough words to describe how amazing Abby and her team are. I hired Abby for my entire wedding day at the Shinola Hotel in Detroit, MI. From the moment she arrived, she was ready to work. I do not live in Detroit, and she went as far as picking up my wedding cake and bringing it to the venue and coordinating lunch for the bridesmaids. She eased my nerves and made sure the day was flawless. She worked behind the scenes with all my vendors, ensuring everything was absolutely perfect. My husband and I were beyond happy to have hired Abby on this special day. She had a fun spirit throughtout the whole day and made sure we were fed and hydrated every step of the way.
I had the pleasure of working alongside Abby this past weekend as a vendor, and I can honestly say she went above and beyond in every way. Her organization, communication, and attention to detail made the day flow seamlessly. She handled everything with such professionalism while keeping the energy fun and stress-free for everyone involved.
As a vendor, it’s such a gift to work with a planner who truly cares about the couple, the guests, and the team behind the scenes. I highly recommend Abby to any couple looking for a wedding planner or day-of coordinator—you’ll be in the best hands!
