ntact with them.
Stephanie was a Godsend! She was always available by email or text, reassured me that she would make sure everything I had planned for the day would happen just the way I hoped, and really went beyond my expectations of what a day-of coordinator would handle.
She and TJ oversaw everything from setup to teardown and even dropped off our décor at our hotel after the reception since it needed to be removed from the venue that night. I know there were hiccups throughout the day, but Stephanie handled everything - not one issue was brought to my husband, myself, or our families. It was such a relief to be able to enjoy our reception knowing that we had the support we needed to make the day go smoothly.
Their pricing was incredibly reasonable for their services and I would highly recommend TCR for day-of services!

had my very down fairy god mother, with much better style. She took my vision and always elevated it still keeping within budget. She also made dealing with family much easier during such a stressful time with so many opinions flying around. TJ was also super helpful to my husband and on finding vendors for a great price.

y aspect. They checked in frequently throughout the planning process and were never irritated by our strange requests or questions. They were polite to all of our guests who were also LGBTQ+ and connected with the entire guest list immediately. I have recommended them to everyone I know.
This group did my wedding last weekend and it was great. Very professional and detail oriented.
