We started working with Tessa about a year and a half before our wedding date. She helped us with everything from choosing our date to securing an out-of-this-world venue to the silverware, design, and ceremony music. We hired her for not only ...our wedding but for four events leading up to it, and I can honestly say she made every single event an out-of-this-world experience! Yes, she planned four full events plus an after-party for us with a different theme and venue for each!! If you want your wedding planning process to be filled with ideas, organization, communication, beauty, and a get-it-done attitude, then Tessa is your girl.
Everyone says wedding planning is stressful, and yes, there are tons of decisions to make, but rather than stressed, I had the most fun. Tessa helped make all the decisions enjoyable because she gave me such great options to choose from! We wanted a classic elegant wedding, but how do you do that when you also want it to be unique and something no one has ever seen? Well, Tessa helped make that happen.
Planning my wedding was tough on me because my Mother passed away a few years ago, and she wasn't there to help me make all the decisions and to dream up a beautiful wedding with me. It was a difficult time planning my wedding without her here. Hiring Tessa was a blessing because I had someone I could bounce ideas off of and who helped me from A to Z. If I had an idea, I would tell Tessa, and she would incorporate it into the design. We would also brainstorm ideas together, which was the most fun. She came up with a gorgeous design deck so I could visualize what everything would look like, which was incredibly helpful, not to mention her ideas and design skills are top-notch.
One of the big things that stood out to me was that Tessa is a stellar communicator. If we had a question, she was ready to answer it. If there was something I wanted some clarification on, she was there to explain it to me. We ended up having the most beautiful fairytale wedding I could ever imagine. Three weeks later, we still have people texting and calling us to tell us how incredible the wedding was and how perfectly executed everything was.
As a bride, you want your wedding to be the best day of your life, a dream come true, and the most memorable time for you and your husband; with Tessa's help, you won't have to worry about a thing, and yes, you can have the fairytale. You just show up, smile, and have fun! Thank you, Tessa, for everything. You are my wedding planner soulmate turned super friend.
