Your wedding day should feel joyful, intentional, and stress-free. SideGigSarah provides refined wedding day coordination for couples who want a beautifully organized celebration without the overwhelm.
My coordination experience includes full rehearsal management, vendor communication, timeline creation, décor placement, event flow management, and on-site support from start to finish. My approach is warm, calm, and detail-focused — the kind of guidance that lets you enjoy your day while I handle everything behind the scenes.
If you're looking for aesthetic support, I offer optional design services and access to The SideGigSarah Rental Collection — a curated set of décor pieces that simplify your planning while elevating your event style. Rentals may be booked with or without coordination.
Your job: enjoy your day.
My job: manage the details beautifully.

I had the most unique Birthday/ gender reveal experience. It was completely non traditional ,which is totally me and Sarah catered to that niche . She came up with an original idea...
on how to reveal the gender of my little one to my friends ( I knew already ) . She not only got us a VIP section but coordinated with the club owner, and the DJ to queue " Girls , girls , girls "- Jay Z after a quick shot out. We cried happy tears . I still get goosebumps hearing that song ! ❤️her precision and eye for detail shows that she cares about her art and she will make sure you remember each experience. I also entrusted her with my Babyshower as well ! Once again I do not do traditional events so of course I had my baby shower in a club ha! It was in downtown Saratoga and there was a day party going on but we had our own section just for shower guest where we played games, read beautiful tear jerking letters, and danced. She coordinated with the owners once again to pull off another memorable event with excellent food ( they opened the restaurant early for us), great mocktails ( for myself) and music. One of the best last hoorahs before mommyhood, and I always had somewhere to sit! My guest had so much fun ( goal accomplished) and the next morning she set us up with a list of brunch spots to go to. Not a single loose end in site !

Sarah was an absolute blessing and such a wonderful addition to our wedding day. She is incredibly caring and attentive, always seeming to know exactly what people needed before th...
ey even had to ask. She constantly brought snacks and drinks, checked in to make sure I was comfortable, and asked what I needed at every moment. Thanks to Sarah, my husband and I were able to stay on the dance floor the entire night without a single worry. Her thoughtfulness, organization, and ability to anticipate needs made everything feel seamless. I am beyond grateful that Sarah was part of our celebration—she truly made our day even more special. I would highly recommend Sarah to any future bride looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make their day stress-free and unforgettable.
