Highly recommend Scout and Grace Events! Our planner, Erin, made it extremely clear from our first conversation she wanted to execute our wedding vision, and she’d go to bat for us to make that happen. I was 1000% stress free on our big day, and Erin was kind, organized, in charge, and went above and beyond to make our day a success. Thank you, Erin and Scout and Grace events! It was a dream day - many thanks to you.

I really thought we were in good hands with Scout & Grace for month of coordination, but our wedding day fell short of expectations. Vendor coordination in advance of our wedding day was on point. Though 6 days before our wedding they asked to bring a 3rd assistant saying we'd only have to cover her meal (catering was paid in full at that point so it would have added another to-do item to our list), and when I asked for additional info on why a 3rd person was needed (we had a small wedding), they admitted it was so that this newer assistant could gain social media experience. It made it feel like our wedding day was a training session for their team rather than a service we paid for. In retrospect, I'm grateful our venue manager pushed them to adjust certain things on our timeline because they didn't make sense during our final walkthrough (e.g., doing our first dance, father daughter dance and mother son dance all in a row). Our coordinator was very green and it showed--she was cold and stand-offish during the rehearsal and wedding day. I barely interacted with the second assistant they brought. No one greeted our guests as they got off the shuttle so they were confused about where to go and where the ceremony location was at the venue. She then decided to move me and my parents to a holding room in the reception space as guests were arriving--terrible idea to make the bride run across the lawn in heels in full view of guests! Luckily, our photographers helped shield me, but there was no need to move us then or at all. The coordinator neglected to seat immediate family in the front row for our ceremony even though we discussed the list in our final walkthrough with her and then we were told it was our fault because we should have provided name cards (that she didn't tell us to provide). The biggest pain point was that she ended our wedding TWENTY minutes early despite getting the okay from our venue to go to the ending time on our contract and allow guests to arrive 10-15 minutes before the ceremony start time. Hugely frustrating to have the biggest celebration of your life cut short! Miriam was so professional on our initial calls, but the team that she handed things off to was not great and someone more experienced should have been there to help steer the newer coordinator--we thought and discussed that Miriam was going to be there the day of our wedding, but she sent a different assistant and this was never communicated to us. Disappointing experience all around.

Where do I even begin? My now husband works as a wedding DJ and knew even before he proposed that he wanted to work with Scout and Grace Events. He had gotten to work with them countless times throughout the planning process for other couples' weddings and had a tremendous amount of respect for the team. We had about 1.5 years to plan the wedding and we had the best time working with our main planner Erin. She was truly wonderful to work with leading up to our big day. The best part about her? I was able to completely remove myself from the execution process on our wedding weekend and know that everything would be set up precisely to my vision. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful! The money we spent on a planner was well worth it in every way. Brides - do yourself a favor and reach out to Scout & Grace today!

I was absolutely blown away by the Scout and Grace team! Savanna was our lead planner and I can't stop talking about how impressed I was. She was very on top of everything, but also recognized my type A tendencies and allowed me to have as much control as I wanted. With an outdoor spring wedding, we knew our risks with the weather, and when it came time to decide we had to go with our rain plan, Savanna was calm, cool, and collected. She fully acknowledged my disappointment and gave me my moment to be sad, but ensured that the day would be beautiful, and she delivered. You can tell that she isn't just doing a job, she is invested in each and every decision and truly cares that your day is everything you want. Choosing Scout and Grace will be one of the best decisions you make for wedding planning, you will not regret it!

12/20/2024 • Meredith A

Can’t even imagine my wedding day without Scout and Grace! Haylee was so professional and handled the day really well. Another vendor delivered the wrong colored napkins really closely to the ceremony time and she jumped right in and saved the day! Such a wonderful company!!

12/10/2024 • Rachel N

Couldn’t recommend them enough!! Everything was seamless and perfect on our wedding day. Courtney was such a huge help through the whole process and kept our impossible groomsmen in line (lol)!

10/11/2024 • Natalie A

Erin was THE BEST wedding coordinator. She is a calming presence when wedding planning can be stressful and knows what she is doing! She was a joy to work with, and offered the best advice whenever I need reassurance. She made sure our wedding weekend went off without a hitch. Thank you, Erin!!

9/22/2024 • Jill W

The Scout and Grace team (especially Erin!) were one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. She made sure all of our vendors were coordinated leading up to the wedding day, led a stress-free rehearsal, and made sure that everything went perfectly on the wedding day (even when thrown a few curveballs). I can’t imagine the day without Erin and would recommend the Scout and Grace team to anyone looking for a planner!

8/23/2024 • Hannah W

Miriam and her team made our entire wedding process a dream come true! I have always heard how stressful it is planning a wedding, and we were never stressed the entire time! Scout & Grace handled everything from A to Z, even the fine details you do not think of to make your wedding day a wonderful experience for everyone! I would recommend Miriam and her team to everyone if you are dreaming of the perfect wedding!

7/23/2024 • Ashley G

Miriam and her team were so incredible to work with through the entire process. I hired her for partial planning and it was worth every penny. I had a situation where I found out that I was being scammed by a videographer 3 months before my big day and Miriam helped me find a replacement at a moments notice and looked through my first contract to get me out of it. The week of my wedding she was a sounding board for all of my nerves and concerns and she truly made the day go perfectly. She kept the timeline perfect, the set up was perfect, everything... 10 out of 10.

7/12/2024 • Lisa S

Scout and Grace and specifically Erin was the best decision I made in my wedding planning. They took us all the way home to make my event flawless, and be able to enjoy our whole wedding day!! Highly recommend

7/02/2024 • Juna H

We were absolutely thrilled with our planner, Erin! Initially, we hadn't intended to hire one, but deciding to work with Erin turned out to be one of our best decisions ever. She made the entire planning process so much easier because we had complete trust in her, and she exceeded our expectations. Our wedding day was simply spectacular! Everything went off without a hitch, and we were able to enjoy every moment without any worries. Having Erin as our planner was truly an honor; our wedding night wouldn't have been as perfect without her invaluable assistance!

6/20/2024 • Sophie C

Scout and Grace Events was within reasonable budget and helped my husband and I with our beautiful wedding! Miriam, Erin and Stacia were all amazing and very professional. Every detail ended up being so perfect and the timing of every portion of the wedding was spot on. Absolutely nothing went wrong on our wedding day and if it did they did a really good job of not letting us know! Big shout out to Erin as I worked with her the most and I could not have asked for a better planner. 10000% would only use Scout and Grace Events again for any events. Thanks again team!

12/23/2023 • Olivia D

1000/10 stars, I could never speak highly enough about Hayley from Scout and Grace. She was truly a lifesaver and an amazing coordinator. We were having issues with our venue in the final month and a half with them not responding to any emails or calls, so Hayley took over once our month of coordinating plan started and she worked her magic. Any fear I had was alleviated as soon as Hayley came on board and she saved my sanity, I mean that. The rehearsal went smoothly and quick, and the day of I did not have to worry about a single thing. Any time I’d ask about something it would already have been done, I didn’t have to use my brain once. Hayley, Brett and I love you SO much. Thank you for everything!

11/28/2023 • Elizabeth B

Oh, the WONDERFUL things that I have to say about Miriam and Haylee with Scout and Grace. As a nervous bride, I knew that I couldn't take on wedding planning by myself. After interviewing several planners, I had a call with Miriam and I was sold. She captured my vision so beautifully and so far exceeded my expectations. She and Haylee were so responsive and tackled every event gracefully. Not only are they extremely talented at what they do, but they are each such kind and lovely people. I will truly miss working with Miriam, as she became a friend through the whole wedding process. I will sing their highest praises and recommend them to anyone looking for a planner. Thank you to the Scout and Grace team, one more time, for planning the happiest day of my life to date!

11/28/2023 • Lauren G

Miriam at Scout and Grace was wonderful to work with. I was a very nervous bride. I was also a very busy bride! I had three months to plan and execute my once in a lifetime wedding, and not nearly enough time to get everything done. First of all, Miriam was excellent in helping me to stay calm. She reassured me and kept me on a time line. I went with partial planning, because full planning didn't seem right for my shortened timeline. Miriam made vendor suggestions and gave me contacts for who I might work with. With partial planning, I did the initial communication and booking of vendors. I preferred this as I am bit of a control freak and I wanted to make sure the vendor I chose was exactly what I wanted. I did a lot of interviews with photographers and tasted a lot of cakes to find the right one for me. Once they were booked, Miriam and her team handled the rest of the communication with that vendor. She handled all the timeline and details. Miriam was very reassuring, letting me know what I was and wasn't missing. She was with me for walk through and worked 1:1 with the event manager for the site to ensure that absolutely everything was taken care of. The day of, I didn't have to worry about a single thing. I was able to enjoy my day, talk to my guests, drink, dance and just generally be present. Miriam made sure my vision came to life and everything was absolutely beautiful. I found the partial wedding planning package well worth the investment, but ladies I would definitely not economize on at least getting the day of coordination. You've put a lot into your wedding, enjoy it because it will fly by. Having a planner brought me peace and I was able to enjoy the day I had spent a small fortune on.

11/01/2023 • Brooke D

We hired Miriam from Scout and Grace to help us with our daughters wedding! We chose the Full Service package and we are so glad we did! She did a fabulous job! She is so kind and caring. One of the first things we asked, “if she would travel out of state” without any hesitation, she said “yes!” Mariam paid close attention to details. The tables were beautifully set, the timeline ran smoothly, she even had to fix the wedding cake that the vendor did not properly decorate. She did it all without us even having to ask. She just took charge and the night was amazing! We had so many compliments, all thanks to Mariam. I would highly recommend Scout and Grace! Thank you again for everything!!

10/28/2023 • Katie S

Highly recommend Scout and Grace Events! Miriam Ackerman is a fantastic event planner. She coordinated my wedding and did an excellent job. She is prompt to reply and help anticipate hiccups or snags before they even happen. She went above and beyond to make our day special. I would higher her again in a heartbeat.

10/22/2023 • Nicole M

Scout and Grace was so helpful planning and executing my wedding. Haylee helped me find vendors I needed like a photographer, DJ, and florist. We got the month and day of help and she was amazing. Everything went smoothly and as planned. Several guests commented how well everything was organized and went off without a hitch. Haylee helped with out with the rehearsal as well which was great with my large family. She even assisted with finding some decor as assisting with design and set it all up on day of. Couldn't not have done it without Haylee so incredibly thankful for her and Scout & Grace.

10/15/2023 • JoAnn M

We hired Scout and Grace for Month of Coordination and it was the BEST decision. We gave Haylee our list of vendors and she handled it from there, and the wedding day was SO MUCH FUN! We would definitely hire Scout and Grace again!

10/13/2023 • Mary Jo H

I can’t say enough to convey the amazing work done by Scout and Grace! Miriam and her team did a wonderful job! We did the full package and were so happy we did! Miriam was there with us every step of the way guiding, supporting, and keeping our wedding planning on track. Everything leading up to the wedding and the wedding day (which was at our home) was joyful and stress free.. I recommend Scout and Grace to anyone wanting to create a beautiful memorable day and enjoy the process!

6/03/2023 • Kelly M

The best decision we made through the entire planning process was hiring Haylee to be our day-of coordinator - she is an absolute PRO! We had a somewhat nontraditional wedding (ceremony at a public park, reception at a bar), with a lot of unique / moving parts - and Haylee brought our vision to life even better than we even imagined, "leveling-up" our setups at both locations. She took all of the anxiety out of the week leading up to the wedding, the rehearsal, and of course the day-of - keeping things organized, on time, and FUN for us and our guests. She also created space for us to have a few quiet / private moments throughout the night which was really special. We are so grateful!!

5/10/2023 • Sary C

Scout and Grace, led by the exceptional wedding planner Miriam, exceeded our expectations and created an unforgettable wedding experience. From the initial consultation to the final moments of our celebration, Miriam's attention to detail and creativity were exceptional. She listened to our vision and turned it into a breathtaking reality, providing valuable guidance throughout the process. On the big day, Miriam and her team executed flawlessly, ensuring every detail was perfect. We highly recommend Scout and Grace, and specifically Miriam, for anyone seeking a dedicated and talented wedding planner who will turn dreams into reality.

5/06/2023 • Hannah V

Miriam and her team were the glue that held our wedding together. We bought the service where she helped us from 45 days out from thr wedding. She was super chill and so so sweet throughout the whole process and when it came to the big day, her and her team were on their A game. It was the perfect day but were a series of mishaps on our special day that Miriam took care of right away - she completely took the stress off my husband and I and handled everything like the BOSS woman that she is. One big example was my husband and I used a catering service and a design service, and somehow, my husband and I forgot to order linen napkins from either service! It fell between the cracks. We didn’t realize this until like 2 hours before the wedding but Miriam somehow got us 350 linens before the ceremony. Can’t tell you how eternally grateful I am for this woman and her team.

5/04/2023 • Joyce B

Miriam, Haley and Erin of Scout and Grace are wonderful. Of course, they are professional, punctual and well seasoned in the wedding planning process. Everything you would expect from a wedding planner. However, they were much more. A sounding board when things became overwhelming. A resource for everyone in the wedding party to go to for assistance on the wedding day. Miriam and her team became part of the wedding. My daughter and could not have done it without Scout and Grace.

11/02/2022 • Elaine B

After the first month of trying to plan her own wedding, my daughter decided to contact a wedding planner. From the very first conversation, Miriam made us all feel at ease. She is a joy to work with. She never turned down an opportunity to answer questions and calm nerves. She made budget friendly recommendations that allowed us to chose the venue, photographer, bakery, dress, flowers, and caterer with ease. From start to finish (we left the venue before she did) she handled everything!! Miriam was the coordinator and director of a wedding more beautiful that we could have ever done on our own. All handled with a smile, an air of confidence, and beautiful demeanor that calmed any worries we may have had. I am grateful that my daughter followed her instinct on this decision to hire a planner. Miriam Ackerman is truly amazing at planning an event that fits your budget, your style and exceeds your expectations.

11/02/2022 • Kristen B

We just got married 10/21/22 and I can’t even find the words to express how AMAZING Miriam is. We started our wedding planning journey dazed and confused; we had no clue where to start, we were struggling to find vendors and get in contact with some, and had no idea what kind of budget was necessary. We considered a planner at times but we were scared of the idea and what it would cost. However, with 9 months to go until our wedding and nothing planned, we decided to take the leap with Scout & Grace and purchase the full wedding planning service package. From the moment we first spoke to Miriam we felt a weight being lifted off our shoulders. Throughout the entire process she was supportive, encouraging, organized, trustworthy, determined, and such a kind person. Miriam will become your instant best friend and manages to take on all your stresses with such grace. You’re randomly stressed about plate arrangements? She’s got it. You need an honest opinion on if you should spend money on a specific item? She will provide it. You want a specific vendors service but not for that price? Don’t worry, she’s got a list. She knows anything and everything about wedding planning and will take such good care of her brides. My wedding day went beyond PERFECT - people are still continuing to talk about how fun, beautiful, and organized it was. I wouldn’t have survived the wedding planning process and wedding day without Miriam, and I highly recommend any bride to utilize her. You won’t regret it.

10/31/2022 • Bailley W

We couldn't have made it through our day without Miriam! She was always 3 steps ahead of me and a true wedding pro. She was calm and incredibly kind to everyone involved in our day. She genuinely wanted my husband and I have to have the best day. We are so thankful that Miriam was apart of our wedding - if we had to do it all over she would be the first person I call!

10/26/2022 • Stephanie S

Miriam at Scout and Grace did a fantastic job with the wedding planning and details of our daughters wedding . Everything was perfect even down to the tiny details . She was such a delight to work with and we could not have done it without her . She is a professional at what she does . Thank you Miriam Scout and Grace for a lovely , stress free wedding planning process and a beautiful wedding day .. we could not have been more pleased !

10/17/2022 • Katlyn M

WOW! Hire Miriam NOW! Miriam and Haylee were my coordinators and they took so many worries away. They were on top of it! Their response times were fast, they answered all my questions with ease, and made the wedding day a breeze. All of our other vendors mentioned how much they loved them as well. They were down to earth and not at all bossy. They felt like our support system - rather than a superior. Our choice to hire Scout and Grace was one of the best decisions of the whole Wedding!

9/29/2022 • Hannah R

Miriam and Haley were such a blessing on our wedding day! When I say they understood my vision I mean they understood my vision. When I arrived to the venue everything was set up just as I would have wanted it. The day ran seamlessly from start to finish while I felt like I could just relax and enjoy myself. From coordinating with all of the other vendors, to setting up the wedding decor and answering all of my many questions, Miriam was a huge help. She was quick to respond to my emails and extremely knowledgable. Very personable, patient and easy to get along with. Everyone loved her and she made my day easy!!! We would highly recommend her and her team!

7/15/2022 • Lorri T

Miriam, of Scout and Grace Events, was invaluable! My daughter's wedding was absolutely perfect and she was an integral part of making that happen. She provided helpful advice and suggestions prior to the event when needed. Then, on the day of the wedding, anytime I wondered/asked if something was done or needed to be done, the answer was always “yes”! Miriam and Hailey were always so calm, comforting, reassuring and knowledgeable. Everything was set up exactly to our wishes and broken down and packed up at the end in record time! They took charge of all the “behind the scenes” details, coordinating the band, the florist, the ceremony, caterer, and the reception so we could relax and enjoy the special day.

7/12/2022 • Nina Q

I highly recommend Miriam for your wedding planning needs. Miriam helped me plan my wedding from start to finish. She found vendors, made phone calls, kept constant communication with basically everyone and most of all helped us achieve the wedding of our dreams. On our wedding day Miriam made sure everyone was in place and the wedding went off without a hitch. I had several people comment on how wonderful the wedding was and how great the planner managed the event. The day of the wedding we also had an assistant of Scout and Grace Events and she was also very helpful. As the bride, I did not have one issue to solve the day of and if anything did go wrong .... well I never heard about it! Thank you so much Scout and Grace Events for really making our day perfect!

5/10/2022 • Erin B

When I was searching for a wedding coordinator, Miriam stood out to me as someone I could trust. She was amazing in her role as wedding coordinator. Her expertise prevented several mishaps. For example, our officiant was getting ready to leave the wedding before he had signed the marriage license. Good thing she caught him and brought him in to sign the license! She directed my wedding party and parents at our rehearsal like a good teacher would do- instructing us on pacing, how to hold our flowers, etc... Now anytime I can give my friends wedding advice: my biggest piece is not to skip out on a wedding coordinator. Miriam was crucial to our wedding day running smoothly.

5/07/2022 • Alea C

Miriam is absolutely AMAZING to work with! I feel like I can't even put into words what a perfect addition she was to make my wedding day exactly what I wanted it to be. She is very professional, responsive and extremely well organized. I didn't feel an ounce of stress on my wedding day because Miriam had everything under control and that is exactly what every bride deserves.

11/14/2021 • Chelsea R

Miriam and her team went above and beyond and made the our wedding day seamless and stress free. She helped with getting donuts, set up, vendors, the best charcuterie board I’ve ever seen, timeline, keeping us on said timeline, and tear down! So happy we decided to take the leap to go with a planner!

9/09/2021 • Shivana S

Miriam was AMAZING to work with. She bent over backward to ensure our weekend was perfect. We hired her to coordinate our Sangeet as well as the traditional wedding day and she did everything in her power to make sure everything was flawless. We would recommend Miriam 100000000x over again. She is amazing at what she does and ensure that the Bride and Groom are the top priority-- no one else! We love you, Miriam!

7/09/2021 • Aryn K

I have had the pleasure of working alongside Miriam in the past several years (I create wedding cakes so we sometimes work the same events!) but have recently also been lucky enough to have her has my day of planner for my own wedding. For both my own wedding (and at every event I’ve seen her) Miriam and her team have been punctual, professional, and definitely someone you want on your team for the most important day of your life! I did not realize how quickly our wedding day would fly by (I know that’s what everyone says!) and without Miriam we would have definitely not kept to our schedule. I’m so glad she was there to help keep everything on track. On our wedding day she made several decisions last minute regarding our reception which I was not available to make. Because of our previous meetings she was able to understand my fiancé and my priorities and made decisions based on what we would want (which she did perfectly!). I’m 100% sure she took care of far more little things than I’ll ever be aware of (and no couple should have to be aware of on their wedding day!) If you do not have a planner I highly recommend getting one and Scout and Grace is the way to go!

5/21/2021 • Shelby S

After having to postpone our original wedding date due to COVID, my fiance and I were not really interested to re-planning again on our own. I reached out to Miriam about 7 months before our new wedding date and purchased her partial planning package. We went with Miriam because she was kind, professional, completely understanding of what we were looking for, and reasonably priced. She took the reigns and handled everything from there on out which included hiring 3 more vendors, organizing everyone together, and reminding me of the little things left to do. She had reminders automated for us, a handy website that tracked everything, and was available to us whenever we needed via email text or call! The day of the wedding, Miriam and her assistant Ashley made the day flow absolutely seamlessly. They thought of e v e r y t h i n g and I had to worry about nothing. It felt so nice that the stress was off our shoulders for the day and everything fell into place due to the planning and coordination of Miriam with all our vendors. I would recommend Miriam a million times over and to every soon-to-be bride in the area! Don't put it all on yourself, let Miriam help you!

4/07/2021 • Akaley H

When I found Miriam, I was overwhelmed. Not so much with what I wanted out of our wedding, but how it was going to be executed, and how we were going to make sure our large bridal party was organized. I had spoken with a few coordinators, and they were all out of my budget & didn’t seem to click well for me. Then I found, Scout & Grace. I spoke with Miriam via zoom and she immediately made me feel reassured about our wedding. After bouncing ideas around her for the next couple months and then seeing her get everyone on topic and organized at the rehearsal dinner, I felt so relieved on our wedding day that everything was handled. She took away so much of my stress from the time that I booked her, until the end of our wedding night. When I say that our wedding day went perfectly, I mean it! No major hiccups and everything ran smoothly. Not only is Miriam a sweetheart, but she is organized, focused, timely, and so much fun to be around! I couldn’t have asked for anyone better and I know that she worked so hard to make our day as perfect as it was. Thank you Miriam!!!!

12/03/2020 • Maria C

I sincerely recommend Miriam’s services as an event planner. I hired Miriam approximately 6 months before my wedding (October 24, 2020). I came to her in-over-my head, stressed, and tired of managing too many things at the same time. I knew how I wanted my wedding to look, but I needed someone to coordinate the details and keep me sane. Miriam did all of that and more, and she did it with professionalism, grace, and kindness. She was there for me when we had Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C. She had my back when I was being picky about the plates I wanted, when I had to switch venues a month and half before my wedding, when my original photographer was hospitalized with Covid-19 a week before my wedding (she called every photographer she could think of to find a replacement (the replacement she found was amazing too – see my review of William Avery Photography)). On the day of my wedding, she brought my vision together beautifully. As someone who works a demanding job, I needed someone sharp, capable, and responsive. Miriam was all three, plus she is kind, passionate about her career, and empathetic to boot. You cannot go wrong with her services.

10/21/2020 • Kristen S

At the start of my wedding planning journey I followed tons of vendors on social media to get helpful tips! One of those random pages I came across was Scout and Grace Events (they post such great info on insta). I was at a point where I was so frustrated with planning anything else (keep in mind I had not done much at all at this point) that I knew I had to have a wedding planner. I sent a quick message to Miriam Ackerman with Scout and Grace and was SO BLESSED that she had availability on my big day. She was super responsive and so easy to talk to, but without being in your face and over bearing. She just seemed so genuine and so good at what she does. She was the perfect balance I needed. So we finalized stuff and she got to work immediately. My stressful wedding planning life calmed down a ton! She was full of recommendations when I didn’t know where to look or what to say next, she was comforting and a great listener in stressful times, and a fun encourager during the happy times. Miriam made tasks I dreaded exciting and something to look forward to. She is more than just a wedding planner, she is now part of my family and a true friend! I can not recommend Scout and Grace Events enough! They went above and beyond to make my big day perfect. Everything I pictured in my head Miriam brought to life. She has even kept touch post wedding and helped me preserve my bouquet at the last minute! If you want your wedding vision to come to life perfectly, your wedding day to run smoothly, and to make a friend to drink wine with you need to hire Scout and Grace! I can’t imagine not having Miriam as part of my big day. Without her expertise behind the scenes there is no way I would still be getting compliments on how great my wedding was! I cannot stress enough the importance of having a GREAT wedding planner! Worth every penny.

8/28/2020 • Jomoree R

Miriam is the real MVP!! So patient, kind and professional. She really made our wedding ceremony & reception a beautiful & dreamy day. The days leading up to our big day were stress free thanks to Miriam. It doesn’t get any better than Scout&Grace.

6/18/2020 • Raquel H

I don’t think I could have gotten through my wedding without Miriam. When I first hired her I had told her about my dream to have a tea party the day of my wedding, she got with my maid of honor and they surprised me with the most amazing tea party ever. My wedding day was perfect, my husband and I were able to enjoy our special day. We even hired her to help us years later with my sons first birthday.

6/10/2020 • Kiley R

Miriam is t he best!! Our wedding was absolutely seemless. She planned all the vendor coordination, timing of the day, and made sure we had everything I didn't think of (tip envelopes, mints, extra supplies for bustle, food/drink for vendors, etc). She is knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and you can tell she truly enjoys every aspect of event planning. I was able to truly live in the moment and enjoy my day with zero stress! My husband and I are so happy Miriam planned our event and would 1000% recommend her to anyone!

My wedding Day went off without a hitch, or so you would at least think. We had a few issues, that I didn’t even know about, because my coordinator Miriam take care of everything so I never got stressed. She was wonderful, and helped calm me on the most important day of my life. I highly recommend her services to any bride.

We hired Miriam for our wedding in Dallas for our May 2013 wedding! She is absolutely amazing and her upbeat personality makes her PERFECT for this role! I'm an organized individual but of course wedding planning can stress you out. Miriam jumped in and was beyond organized and it put me at ease! Her binder (plus one she created for us) had everything broken down and it helped sooo much. Her email and text responses were so quick. She was always on top of it! I can't recommend Miriam enough! We still keep in contact to this day! She is an amazing person who will make your special day perfect!!! :)

Miriam was top notch! She handled so many details I didn’t even know we needed to have. From the first meet to the day of my wedding she was communicative and thorough. I received so many compliments on how beautiful everything was and how seamless it all flowed. I owe it all to Miriam!

Miriam is a mind reader. She genuinely listens to your vision and brings it all to life without a million questions! Miriam makes wedding planning a breeze. I put it all in her capable hands and was in love with what she was able to accomplish.
