Shannon Wellington Weddings

to have been able to work with her. Shannon is extremely talented, understanding, responsive, sweet; I could go on. She never made me feel like I was a burden during wedding planning when my mom & I were both emailing multiple questions a day. I truly let Shannon's talent & expertise take the lead and my wedding turned out better than I could have ever imagined. She would listen to my feedback, follow up with more vendors if need be, and always worked within our budget. The month leading up, we began working with Michelle who is an absolute gem & rockstar. So sweet, composed, professional, and also so talented at what she does. She has a way to orchestrate a 30+ person wedding party and make it look easy. I trusted her 1000% with my wedding day and for good reason. She was amazing! Overall, Shannon, Michelle, and Chris are a dynamic trio who are truly invaluable and you should absolutely hire this team!

aluable advice leading up to our special day. Her warmth and reassuring presence immediately put us at ease throughout the entire wedding weekend, and her genuine care for our guests won everyone's hearts. Michelle and Chris made sure that every guest was comfortable and taken care of, and I am still in awe of their attention to detail. If you have the chance to work with this amazing team for your wedding, don't hesitate - they are truly exceptional. We cannot thank you enough for supporting us and our families on our wedding day, creating a stress-free environment that allowed us to enjoy every single moment. THANK YOU!

e together, I trusted in her and she did not disappoint. She is incredibly talented, creative, and just wonderful to work with. Our wedding was stunning, more than my wildest dreams, and Shannon is to thank. Michelle (and her team) are amazing. If anything went wrong the day of the wedding, I have absolutely no idea. They handled anything and everything and the day went seamlessly. Our wedding was perfect thanks to Michelle. The Shannon Wellington Team are phenomenal at what they do. From the countless meetings leading up to the wedding to the day of, I couldn't have asked for a better, nicer, more enjoyable group of people to work with. Sincerely thank you for all you do! Couldn't imagine this day without them.

coordination was worth every penny, especially since my wedding was not local. I loved working with the Director of Operations, Michelle, to finalize the last minute details of my big day. I seriously cannot thank Michelle enough for her professionalism and calm demeanor. Nothing can rattle this team which is why they are a must have in your corner while you plan your big day. Thanks again team, you're amazing!!

ive them more than 5 stars, because they truly deserve all the praise in the entire world. From my first convo with Shannon, I knew she was going to be a perfect fit for us. I wasn’t the most wedding-knowledgeable bride and she helped guide us through everything. We used her design, and month-/day-of services, and both were beyond incredible. Her design was flawless, and seeing it all come together on the day was just so spectacular. And I cannot say enough amazing things about her team. Michelle and Chris were the best coordinators anyone could ask for, and they made the day so incredibly easy and stress-free and wonderful. My advice to anyone seeking a wedding planner/designer is to hire Shannon and her team.

verything she said on our initial consult put me at ease and felt in line with how I was envisioning our wedding day. I am the type of person who makes lists and more lists and has a hard time not having their hand in everything.. let me tell you- for me to be able to just give full creative control to Shannon is a true testament to her brilliance. I have never been so comfortable and trusting of someone’s creative expertise before- Shannon and I discussed our style inspiration (I may have even made her an entire packet detailing every design aspect I could think of) and from there she took the reigns and worked with florist (who was out of this world amazing) rentals, linen, stationary, you name it to create on of the most magical and breathtaking sights- not even to mention the florals, linens and signage for the night before as well. Leading up to the wedding I was so calm (also a testament to Shannon and her team as I often joke that I don’t have an off switch and am always “going going going”) anytime anyone asked if I needed anything I had nothing because they were handling every little detail down to what straws we had for the signature cocktail. Day of was a breeze- Chris was my life line and I have no idea what I would have done without him. He was so calm and collected - our bridesmaids and groomsmen all commented to us about how much of an asset he was. He was pulling out sewing kits before the ceremony to fixed a popped button off one of the tuxedos, he was reassuring me when I was scared we were running behind getting ready that we had buffer time and all would be okay (we did and it was), every time I had to move I would just feel half my body weight of dress go away and Chris was there carrying my entire train (which wasn’t light) and keeping my veil from flying away or getting caught on something. He brought water to our whole bridal party and families during our photos outside, was in charge of some rogue boutonnières that we almost forgot at the house before the first look (the only reason we didn’t is because of Chris) and so much more. Shannon and her team kept the whole day on schedule so well- cocktail hour was exactly one hour, everything happened when it was supposed to, and Shannon even helped my husband and I sneak away to take it all in before we got sunset photos and the reception started. The entire weekend start to finish was amazing because of Shannon and her team. So many guests came up to us to tell us how the Welcome Bags were amazing and had the most delicious cookies and popcorn, the Welcome Dinner the night before the wedding was beautiful- we had florals linens and signage to hint at the wedding vibe and I think it was done so perfectly. I have had guests tell me that wedding day looked like a fairy tale. Shannon had basically created a garden/forest indoors and it was completely and utterly breathtaking. I can’t even sum up how amazing this team is- I would do it all over again a million times just to get to work with them again. They were truly my wedding dream team.

tle detail, was absolutely beautiful - details I would never have even thought of! She expertly brought all of our esthetic dreams to life while adding a beauty I never could have imagined. She spent the many months leading up to our wedding day sourcing all of our rentals and decorations while working with other vendors such as the florist and installation teams. Throughout the planning process she curated realistic mockups for us to visualize her ideas along the way. She created the seating chart display OF MY DREAMS, found us the most amazing florist and worked with them to exceed all floral expectations (obsessed with our florals!), beautiful drapery installation, the perfect rentals, and an overall vibe that was just perfection. She made the planning process as seamless as possible and when we had an issue with one of our rental companies a few days before our wedding, she sprung into action rectifying the situation so quickly for us. When I think of Shannon Wellington the word that comes to mind is EXPERTISE. She is truly an EXPERT in her craft and it shows in her professionalism and her execution. Our wedding was truly more beautiful than I ever could have imagined and I felt that so much stress was taking off of me because of her!! We have gotten sooo many compliments from both our guests and others who have just seen pictures that our wedding was the most beautiful wedding they have ever seen! Shannon’s team was also so so amazing to work with and helped us so much throughout our planning process and the day of. We used Shannon and her team for Month-of coordination and Michelle was absolutely amazing throughout the month+ leading up to our wedding. She was so detail-oriented, corresponded with all of our vendors on our behalf, so responsive to all of my questions and concerns. She truly made me feel at ease leading up to our wedding day. She and Chris on our wedding day were a dream to work with, so kind and professional. I felt that my husband and I could really enjoy our day because we knew that Michelle and Chris had every little thing under control. I still have guests telling me that they have never been to such a well scheduled/run wedding!! The services that Shannon, Michelle, and Chris provide are worth every single penny! I would use them for everything in my life if I could! So amazing at their jobs, so awesome as people to work so closely with throughout the whole process and to have around you on your big day, just true perfection! I want to thank them so SO much for making our day so truly amazing. They will forever be a huge part of our fondest memories from the best day in our lives!

Wellington Weddings back in late 2020 for full-service wedding planning and design, and let me tell you - this team is BEST IN CLASS. Period. There is no one better. Shannon is undeniably always a step ahead of the rest. I was blown away by her ability to so seamlessly identify trendy vs timeless over the almost 2 years we spent planning our big day. It’s tough to overstate her impeccable eye for design, from identifying the perfect textured table linens to the way each individual item sits in your photographer’s flat lay detail shots (which Shannon lays out herself, btw!). Michelle and Chris are also absolutely INCREDIBLE. Michelle is so unbelievably helpful throughout the entire planning process - she manages every single logistic so effortlessly, and both Michelle and Chris are so cool, calm, and collected at all times. We had a big transportation fiasco with guests stuck on shuttles on their way to our ceremony, which put the day a bit behind schedule. Shannon, Michelle, and Chris never wavered and made everything as smooth as possible, down to having our string quartet play well beyond their allotted time to entertain guests during the long wait (which I hadn’t even thought of, but heard from guests afterwards how fabulous it was!). If we had anyone else on our team, I truly think the transportation issues would’ve sabotaged the day, but Shannon’s team was SO in control of the situation that we didn’t even blink an eye or even really think much about it! I would be remiss not to add that if you’re looking for a wedding planner to inundate you with daily emails, updates, and questions on every minuscule detail - this team ain’t it. They are the best of the best, and like all professionals at the very top of their field, the biggest reward comes when you fully and completely trust them and the process. If I knew how to plan a wedding or had a super specific vision down to what I wanted my napkins to look like, I would’ve done it myself. Share the big picture for the day, then stay open to ideas and let Shannon and her team work their magic. As just one of MANY examples, Shannon asked if she could arrange a “surprise” for us at our reception. We didn’t hesitate for a moment, and it was truly one of the most stunning areas of the entire event: a Palm Springs-inspired lounge complete with bright seating, chic swan floaties, glowing orbs, and of course, frozé and piña coladas on tap. We got sooooo many compliments from our guests, and like all things Shannon does, no one had ever seen it before. I know I’m leaving out so much here, but it really is difficult to convey how special this team is. RUN to book her!!!

s snacks when we were hungry! Everything ran so smoothly and we felt so relaxed because of her! Even guests outside of my bridal party were raving about her and could see all that she was doing. Thank you!!!!

doubt, that using SWW was the single best decision we made during the planning process. Shannon and her team (Michelle and Chris) helped make our wedding day everything we had dreamed of and then some. Here are some specifics on why SWW is incredible at what they do: 1. Shannon captured the EXACT design style that my wife and I wanted, with very little stylistic input from us. It was practically magic how she knew exactly what we wanted without any explicit details from us besides the general "themes" we wished to capture. Our guests were raving about how nice everything looked. 2. SWW took care of all the finer points during the month of planning; everything from the welcome baskets (which were incredible, by the way) to the coordination of day-of vendors (e.g. flowers, furniture rentals) to the detailed weekend schedule was taken care of by Shannon's team. It was a breath of fresh air to work with them on these tasks during the month of our wedding. 3. Michelle and Chris went above-and-beyond on the day of the event, even expertly handling certain challenging situations that were brought about by some of our other vendors. I was personally initially skeptical about the need for a planner (my wife had to convince me) but now I seriously can't imagine having this event without SWW's involvement. I cannot re-iterate how strongly I recommend them for any future event.

ing a year due to the pandemic, and Shannon's team was extremely helpful and flexible. What started as a few pins on pinterest became the most visually stunning event I have ever seen in my life- I'll never have enough words to thank Shannon for her creative genius! Not a single detail went unnoticed! Her creativity is unmatched! And beyond that, Michelle was the most organized and calm person I have ever met. She coached me, my now husband, and family through the whole day, making sure everyone was comfortable and EVERY SINGLE need was met. In the time leading up to the wedding, she answered me and my moms 100s of questions as we started to get nervous for our day, and coordinated all of the logistics for our MANY vendors. I didn't notice one negative thing happen all day- the team was amazing! If you want to be able to sit back, relax, and truly enjoy your wedding planning process and big day, you have to hire Shannon and her team! I'm still in tears thinking about how perfect it was, and how kind and selfless Shannon, Michelle, and Chris were- they really do make dreams come true!

tress free as possible (especially during pandemic times). She made the day run smoothly and made sure every detail was perfect. 10/10 recommend. I couldn’t have survived the month leading up to the wedding and the day of without her and SWW!!

as at an untraditional venue that required a lot of coordination between a few different vendors, and Michelle made sure every single detail was handled beautifully. She was extremely communicative and responded to our every email and text quickly. So many of our guests approached us during the night to tell us how amazing our planners were (shout out to Erin, too!). We planned an outdoor ceremony and it rained out of nowhere right as the ceremony was about to begin, and Michelle and Erin scrambled to get everything set up inside the tent in no time. They kept an eye on the weather the whole night and moved things back outside the tent as soon as they could so we could enjoy the wedding we had envisioned. I really, really cannot say enough good things about Michelle and Erin. Our wedding wouldn’t have been nearly as fun without them!

ich is exactly what I needed, since I was a ball of anxiety and nerves a few weeks out. Anything that needed to be taken care of, she was on it! Chris joined Michelle to help on the day of the celebration and he was just as fabulous. I never want to deal with planning another wedding—but if I did then SW would be my first call.

verything Shannon Wellington Weddings did and for how stunning the whole day was!

han I could have dreamed of. Shannon is so great to work with and is truly so talented. I knew the second I got engaged I needed Shannon Wellington to help design my wedding. It was the best decision I ever made! Thanks so much Shannon!

On the day of the wedding, Shannon, Chris and Sammi made us feel calm, loved, and were incredibly organized. Thank you for everything!!!

stical details there were and that I did not want to have to deal with it all myself, especially on my wedding day. I reached out to SWW and they were fortunately available for my date. I immediately knew I had to hire them! I hired SWW for month-of-coordination and it was truly the best decision I ever made. Michelle was my coordinator and she is seriously amazing at what she does. She was extremely responsive to my emails and she handled any issues immediately. The day of my wedding she completely took control of the whole day and I knew I could just relax and not have to worry about a thing! Michelle, Jenny, and Erin made everything run smoothly and truly helped make my wedding day as perfect as it was! If you are on the fence about hiring a wedding coordinator like I was, I urge you to please do yourself a favor and hire SWW!

it, we made the tough decision to move the wedding out an entire year just to be safe and I am so glad we did. We luckily were finally able to have our dream wedding in June 2021. We used Shannon and her team for the design, month of and day of services. Shannon and her team were truly a dream to work with from beginning to end. Shannon was so responsive to all of my crazy emails, which normally came at 7am right after I spent the night before running through all my nightmares scenarios. She always put me at ease and offered me solutions or answers to all my questions and worries. Her design for the entire wedding was flawless and we received SO many compliments about the entire event, which I immediately gave her team all the credit for. It exceeded our expectations and it wouldn’t have been possible without them. On the day of, her team was the absolute best. They were calm, cool and collected the entire time. They completely put my mind at ease and allowed me to focus on getting myself ready to walk down the aisle. They were always just eye contact away if I needed them. My entire wedding party commented on how lovely they were to work with. If I could give them more than 5 start, I would. I highly recommend this amazing team!

, allow yourself to enjoy the moments, and book them! I worked with Michelle for the month and day of coordination and she was amazing. She kept me at ease, was attentive to all my concerns... and the best part - answered emails in the MOST timely fashion. I felt very confident with her on my side. My wedding was this past May so leading up we were still dealing with constant COVID changes. They were not even phased, nor did they skip a beat. When the day of came, Michelle and Erin were on time, professional, and honestly just lovely to have around. They kept my parents and myself at ease. Even one of my guests told me that they asked Michelle for Advil and she had it.. so she really was there for everyone. I genuinely didn't worry about a thing because I knew they were on top of it. Whether you are doing all out planning or just month of - these are your girls.

g and catered to all of our needs, helping us navigate allllll the things day of and the night before. To be able to step into such a large event and know every single detail, our preferences and personality was so impressive. The rest of the team was such a great compliment being so hands on, everywhere when we needed them and accommodating. All while running around in 90+degree weather! I definitely recommend this team! We were so fortunate to have them with us on our special day. They treated us, our family and friends like celebrities and that was an unbelievable feeling!

ator and she made everything flow seamlessly. They respond very quickly to emails and are always on call for anything that you may need. I truly could not imagine my wedding without them. Shannon Wellington + her team are rockstars!

ue. They were helpful and responsive with leading up to the month of and answered any questions I had. Which this being my first wedding planning experience I had a lot of questions. For my 8 months of planning, this wedding was pretty much my baby and my vision was set to exactly how I wanted everything to go. For the 9th month I handed over my final wedding arrangements to Shannon's lead assistant, Michelle, she was a sweetheart! I am very upfront and huge on communication and I understand that she has other weddings however communication was a little too lax for me. I wanted to be more in the loop with vendors and information like the timeline that my guests and photographer needed a little sooner than it was out and thought that it would have been in a little bit more detailed especially for the groomsmen than it was. When we found out the week of that the hotel I had booked in October that they are not offering the shuttle, Michelle was helpful to find replacements however I was right at my budget and the ones that she found would have put me WAY over my budget. When it came for the day of my wedding I was met by her assistant, Chris, whom was absolutely great! He was so quick to help me unload my parents car, and helped me with whatever I needed! I accidentally got lipstick on my brothers suit when i went in for a hug and he was so quick to get the stain out. He made sure my dress did not hit the ground, he made me laugh when I was starting to get stressed, and when it came time to bustle my dress he was right there helping when my MOHs were MIA for a minute. Her other assistant was helpful too she answered any questions I had about anything. The groomsmen were not really told when exactly they needed to be ready by and they were told at 2pm that they needed to hurry up and get dressed. However when I finally saw how the whole day turned out I was pleasantly satisfied. The decorations were spot on and they made my vision come to life! All in all, Michelle and her staff did a great job executing my wedding day. My husband and I are happy how everything turned out! We felt like we were in a hallmark movie!

9, and wanted to get married within the year. I talked to her and one other planner in February, and she had zero concerns with making it all happen. The other planner was all problems and Shannon was all solutions - she had all the vendors and resources we would need. Even when it took me until May to pick a venue/date (we got married in October 2019) - she didn't flinch. She helped me work through what to do first, and kept me on track. I had a very busy work and travel schedule and she was flexible with all of it. I can't emphasize enough how important such a calm and confident presence is in this process. I was never once concerned that the day wasn't going to be beautiful and well-run. I just trusted her implicitly. She even helped me pick bridesmaid and flower girl dresses when I was getting pushback - she was my sounding board. I think I would have completely lost my mind without her. Hire her and her team - you'll be so happy you did.

but also a true reflection of US as a couple. I knew without a doubt that having it at my parents' was going to be able to fulfill my vision in more ways than a traditional venue ever could. ...HOWEVER, I. WAS. STRESSED. As soon as I met Shannon and Michelle, I knew without a doubt that they were going to make my day perfect. And I cannot describe how much they exceeded all of my expectations. I still cannot believe how happy and CALM I felt on the day of. I woke up on my wedding day, looked out the window and saw it was raining. I just shrugged it off and moved on without a care in the world. I knew that by having Michelle by my side, my day was going to be filled with sunshine regardless of the weather forecast. Michelle took care of EVERYTHING. From getting special eyedrops due to my allergic reaction to lash extensions to coordinating the dreaded rain "plan B", to holding my dress in the mud for our first look, she truly did it all. Michelle also took an immense amount of time to plan our hair and makeup schedule and facilitated deliveries and pickups for all vendors. The most impressive part of our experience working with SWW was their ability to keep my mother CALM. This is something I could have never imagined...but they made it happen and did a damn good job of making her happy. By consistently checking in on her and filling her in on the information that she did (or did not ) need to know in order to make the day go smoothly. I still am in complete awe and indescribably grateful because I was able to truly enjoy the day with my mother and that is something that is incredibly priceless to me. My favorite part about working with Michelle and SWW was not their top-quality service, but it was the personal relationships that I was able to build with the team. Michelle worked so incredibly hard to make our day perfect and she did it with such a beautiful, genuine smile that filled my heart with such joy and confidence. I will never be able to thank them enough for making such a huge impact on the best day of my life. Forever grateful for my girls!

gether beautifully. When COVID meant having to revisit everything or start over, Shannon helped us make that decision, and always supported whatever we wanted. Her knowledge of vendors meant that we could trust her judgement, and her overall friendliness and good spirits took the stress off of everything - especially day-of. We absolutely could not have done it without her!

t of town, and was able to help us by recommending other vendors in the area. Closer to the wedding we were introduced to Michelle, who was SO helpful and got all the vendors coordinated and on time for the rehearsal and wedding. Shannon ran a well organized rehearsal and was always available to chat. Michelle was so kind and organized throughout the wedding. If I were to ever need coordination for an event, I would hands down hire SWW. Thank you Michelle and Shannon for being so patient with us as we worked through a #COVIDwedding.

to postpone the wedding one time and then completely change the venue of our wedding to my parents´ house. I asked Shannon and team to upgrade our contract and use them full time. BEST DECISION EVER. Michelle was a dream to work with. She is so responsive and professional on top of extremely talented and fantastic at what she does. The day of the wedding I felt completely at ease knowing that Michelle was in charge. Shannon Wellington Weddings and Events is worth every cent. Book them now!

f our decisions so much easier than I could have ever imagined. Her creative mind completely transformed our venue into a total dream (she also has an in with tons of super cool wedding service companies!) From the ceremony space, to the bathrooms, this girl can do it all! Shannon met with us a few times before the wedding to make sure that our visions were aligned and was super flexible, as I was always coming from out of town. She was in constant communication with me throughout the entire wedding planning/designing process and answered allllll of my questions. The day of the wedding, she was there with her team when I arrived and walked me through the grounds to make sure everything was exactly how I wanted. Such a sweetheart! Then, her team stayed throughout the evening and made literally everything run smoothly. There were hiccups that I didn't even know happened until a week after the wedding because of their professionalism and knowing who to ask what questions to. Totally incredible!! Thank you for making our day everything and more. I am so so so happy that we went with Shannon Wellington and her team, and I would recommend her to EVERYONE!!!

ectations. Being a meticulous person myself who strives for perfection, Shannon was the perfect aesthetic queen to work with! Shannon was innovative, knowledgeable, and truly exceptional. She was extremely helpful and assisted with many tasks & decisions during our planning process. She took the time to listen to our ideas while adding in her creative twist. In doing so, she was able to work her magic and created the wedding of our dreams. Our day was more beautiful than we could’ve ever imagined, and it's all thanks to Shannon and her fabulous team. We were also incredibly lucky to have Michelle and Erin on the day-of to ensure that everything ran smoothly. With their guidance & efficiency, they truly made our day seem like a fairy tale. We couldn't have done it without these rockstars!

earsal. She was sweet and helpful. On the day of the wedding, she made sure to keep things running smoothly and troubleshoot any issues we had. Without us even asking, she went out of her way to make additional arrangements with leftover flowers from the florist and put them around the venue in places that needed a little more love. It really helped to fill the space. We showed up and our chuppah was asymmetrical -- Michelle could immediately tell that we were upset and she was able to contact our florist and have them come fix it for us immediately. Shannon's team stayed throughout the night and packed everything up for us to take home from the venue. Working with Michelle was a joy and we'd recommend her to anyone that asked.

ith. I truly can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day perfect. All those little details that you worry about who to ask or that you might forget- they’re on it. If you want to truly enjoy your wedding day then this is the team you want on your side. We will forever look back on our amazing day and be grateful we had them with us. Thank you again!

ork certainly is greatly appreciated. To be able not to worry about the events of the day made our day so enjoyable. The bride's helper was so attentive to her and this was so helpful through the day and the night as she went from one place to another. From the first time we contacted Shannon, our meeting in late April, to the actual day, she was so patient with us and our many questions. This was extremely helpful! We are quick to recommend Shannon and her team to others.

relief! We chose to have design and styling for the day. We had one initial meeting to review inspiration and ideas. After that, Shannon was totally self sufficient. Weeks later, when she presented everything on paper, we were amazed! She nailed it with our style and put together ideas perfectly with very little information! She was extremely organized, creative, and not afraid to voice her opinions or give us guidance (which we very much needed, especially when it came time to make a rain plan). Shannon makes sure you are getting what you want. If something doesn't exist, she has it made (our initial neon sign was a hit)! She is extremely creative and I honestly felt we were on the same page during the entire process. On the day of the wedding, we were amazed at how everything came together. At one point in the night, my husband turned to me and said "I can't believe this is our wedding." It was really everything we hoped it would be and more. Do yourself a favor and have Shannon design your wedding. You won't be disappointed!

ry aspect of our collaboration was extraordinary. After many emails and phone calls to kick things off, we had a few in-person meetings to discuss our thoughts around the look and feel of the wedding and our vision. She fully took everything into account and ran with it in the best way possible, beyond any creative plan we could have had. If you’re tired of the same Pinterest cookie cutter wedding scenarios you absolutely must go to Shannon and her team, they will effortlessly create and execute an extraordinary day beyond what you could have ever dreamed – and I wasn’t even one of those girls who dreamed of her “perfect day” being a certain way. The styling and design being so extraordinary that I feel it is now informing my husband and my interior design style! When it came to the day of, we didn’t have to worry about a thing and had a fantastic team helping us with every aspect of what we needed and there were no stupid questions. It was so lovely to feel that we could enjoy the whirlwind of a day without concern for logistical aspects of it, as an inherently anxious and more control oriented person this is a feat indeed – a true testament to a well-run team. It felt most like a collaboration which was a pleasure and a glorious end result. Thanks so much to Shannon, Michelle, and Erin for a fantastic wedding day!

kage! We hired Shannon with seven months left to planning our wedding. Our florist, Sue Davis from Fresh Designs Florist, highly recommended Shannon. From the moment I met Shannon, I knew she was exactly what I… I mean “we” needed! :) She really listened to what I was saying and took my vision to a whole new level! Shannon has been in the wedding planning business for many years and let me tell you it shows! She is so knowledgeable about the entire process and she is one of the most hardworking, professional and creative individuals that I have ever known. I am not very organized and get easily frazzled/stressed out, but Shannon was attentive, calming and reliable throughout the entire process, which allowed me to relax. I always felt confident and reassured that she and her team had everything under control. I trusted Shannon so much with my vision that I had her pick out options for the flower girl dress and the color scheme for my bridal party. The color scheme was amazing and the girls received endless compliments on the colors/dresses. Shannon met with us multiple times throughout those seven months. She always kept us aware of each task that had to be completed and when it needed to be completed by. Can we also talk about her wedding software program?! A wedding organization heaven! It was straightforward and organized all of our wedding priorities down to the day of. I also really appreciated that Shannon wanted to make sure that each wedding she planned was original and fit each couples style. She is so creative that every time I met with her and her team, she had a new and wonderful idea. She is the one that put the Prosecco truck on the map and my wedding was the guinea pig! The day of our wedding, everything came together seamlessly. Shannon and her team had everything under control so we could relax and enjoy our day. It took a village to create such an incredible and memorable weekend. Shannon made sure all of the vendors knew what they were doing that day in order to transform our venue into an absolute dream come true. The venue looked so beautiful, it brought me to tears! Last, but not least, I have to give a big shout out to Shannon’s amazing team, Michelle and Erin! Shannon had two weddings on the same day as ours. She left us in such great hands with her trusted associates, Michelle and Erin! They were so professional, calming, organized, and so much fun to be around. They did a phenomenal job and made sure the day ran smoothly and on time. Michelle was our on-site coordinator and Erin was by my side throughout the day. They were so attentive, kind, helpful, and anticipated any and every need we had throughout the day. We want to give a heartfelt ‘thank you’ to Shannon, Michelle and Erin for truly making our whole wedding experience from start to finish the most unforgettable and wonderful experience. We couldn’t recommend a more perfect and talented team than these three women. You all are the best!

extremely detail oriented and a bit of a perfectionist so at first I was apprehensive about hiring a planner. I was worried that a planner would not fully understand my vision leading to disappointment. I could not have been more wrong! Hiring Shannon was the best decision we made throughout the whole wedding planning process. From the beginning Shannon listened closely to my thoughts and ideas providing much needed support, guidance and recommendations. She was always honest and never pushy. Shannon used her expertise and network of top notch vendors to create a unique design plan all within our budget. While Shannon and her team worked on multiple weddings throughout the year, she was always available and made me feel like my wedding was her priority. Shannon and her team (shout out to Erin who stayed by my side all night) helped me remain calm and stress-free on the big day because they handled everything! Shannon went above and beyond for us and for this we will always be grateful.

y daughter's vision and then made it a reality. She exceeded our expectations and saved us from the stress that comes with planning your perfect wedding, while staying within our budget. There was no anxiety on our part because she handled any issue that arose, which allowed us to enjoy the entire experience completely. The guests raved about the attention to detail and the beauty of the design. It was a magical day that we will never forget. I highly recommend Shannon Wellington to anyone who wants a beautiful customized wedding without stress, and memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

pointment because obviously she books up quick! After a 15 minute intro call she had already made me more than convinced she was the perfect person to help us plan our big day! Nothing was overwhelming in the process and the recaps she will set up with you will ease all your wedding stress! For two people who work over 60 hours a week (my husband and I both) were truely SO lucky to have Shannon and her team. I mean from helping the rehearsal dinner logistics to shoving last minute pomegranates in her truck for table decor just for that extra little detail you needed she really has it all down! And to make you feel stress free in the process? She makes me want to get married again!

as sort of a Big Deal. And for good reason! It was entirely thanks to her research and professional connections that I wound up with a great venue and amazing vendors. Using some kind of wizardry, she took all of my scrambled thoughts and crafted them into a wedding design that was cohesive, personal, and more beautiful than I ever could have hoped. My baby brother (not one to wax poetic over weddings) described the day as "Harry Potter kind of magical," and guests couldn't get over how much care had gone into every tiny detail of the weekend. Every snag that came up in the planning process, Shannon handled with good humor and quick problem solving. Best of all, on the actual wedding day, my husband and I could focus on each other and our guests because Shannon was on top of making everything run smoothly. It was such a gift being able to let go of worry and be present on the happiest day of our lives. Shannon is 100% worth your investment for a headache-free planning process and a wedding worthy of a magazine spread.

e to work with this talented group. I contacted Shannon a few months before my wedding to help me with the last month of wedding coordination. I had pretty much of the planning done but I knew I was going to be stressed out with the last month of wedding planning, working full time in NYC, and being out of state of my wedding venue. Shannon was able to go over last minute details and created the master wedding timeline which was a godsend! Not to repeat myself again but don’t stress out on big day, hire a professional to help you out. You won’t regret it!

the months leading up to our wedding once I hit that point of "we're never going to get this all done in time...without killing each other!" I knew I needed a planner but I got more than a planner with Shannon. I got a wedding confidante and an unbiased opinion. I got a beautiful, detail-filled wedding because she suggested so many amazing ideas! Her design plans were more than anythign I could have put together and she brought all of the other vendors together on it. Having one person to turn to and knowing that she would communicate to everyone else was just priceless. No matter where you are in your planning process, you need Shannon for her coordination skills and her eye for detail. You just do.

) wedding and a lot of crazy ideas, high expectations, and opinions. Oh and our wedding was in a field. In the pouring rain. Shannon made everything happen. Tents (5!), flooring, bathroom trailers, valet, flowers, cakes, bars, caterers, balloons, umbrellas, a live unicorn! She was a fabulous partner to all of our vendors (they all told me so!) and she kept me in the loop as much as I wanted to be. Shannon is so easy to talk to, so REAL, and was very honest with me and my budget. She kept me on track with timelines and helped me prioritize so I didn't sweat the small stuff. She has incredible taste and her dream team of assistants are little miracle workers. I am so thrilled I had the opportunity to work with Shannon on our big day/weekend/year!!

arching, pricing, ordering and setting up. I loved some of Shannons creative takes on certain details and my wedding turned out stunning with her help. One little thing that I truly appreciated was how organized she kept all of our emails and conversations. I struggle keeping an organized inbox so it helped that Shannon created a new string of emails per topic that we were discussing so I could quickly reference at a glance if I ever needed to go back and find something (which I did ALL THE TIME!!) Another great thing that Shannon did was that after she ordered items for me, she stored it personally so that I wouldn't have to deal with remembering anything!! That was truly an immense help since I live in a tiny apartment and am probably the most forgetful person on the planet. I never was once concerned that anything would be forgotten or overlooked. She also sent me every receipt so I could keep track of all the things that were ordered. Shannon left my wedding a little after cocktail hour but her two assistants were fantastic. They knew what needed to be done, kept the flow moving, kept the timing and even remembered things that my bride brain had purely forgotten! Without them I would have never taken my "Thank You" note pictures holding my cute little Thank You sign! I had completely forgotten but they came to the rescue! They also packed up everything that was mine and left it neatly in my bridal suite ready for me to take home. This was a tremendous help because I didn't want myself or anyone in my family to have to worry about the dirty details...we all just got to enjoy the party!! Thank you Shannon and your team for making my day completely seamless and worry free!

it all together and tie up loose ends. From the start, Shannon got us organized using her software program and gave us a list of what our priorities were. She also put together a design plan for our wedding day using the flowers we already picked out and made it all come together in the most beautiful way! When it came to our wedding day, she and her team had everything under control so we could relax and enjoy the day. I highly recommend having Shannon with you during your planning process!
