My husband and I chose Ivy to help plan and coordinate our wedding because we saw that she had experience with different cultural weddings and had flexibility in the level of planning. We had just 3 months to plan and needed help with everything from vendor suggestions, to keeping us on a time tracker, and coordinating everyone on the weekend of the event. Ivy exceeded our expectations on all levels. Ivy listened to us and brought valuable suggestions to the table. She was warm and friendly, professional and well organized, responsive, flexible, culturally conscious, and she helped bring together an amazing team that helped us create the wedding of our dreams. We would absolutely recommend her.
I’m so glad I booked Ivy for my wedding day. I never expected myself to be as cool calm & collected and I truly can attribute so much of this to Ivy & Siobhan. If there were any hiccups I truly have no clue what they were. I didn’t have a single worry in the world and it was the best day of mine and my husband’s lives. Thank you Ivy!!
From the first conversation I had with Ivy, I just knew she would be the perfect fit for us! Our wedding started off small and steadily became a bit more complex. Every step of the way Ivy just rolled with it and never showed any signs of irritation or annoyance (I was probably doing enough of that LOL)
Ivy coordinated with other vendors, found the best rates, always showed patience when we sought her counsel. Ivy took my vision and created a wedding that exceeded our expectations. She is truly a professional and one I would put 100% trust into for any event.
We can't thank her enough for going way beyond her job description and ensure we had the wedding of our dreams!
Any questions?
An absolute savior. Ivy kept us sane and unbothered for our wedding day. She kept everyone in line , On schedule, and if anything went a little sideways, we didn’t know about it because she handled it Hire her, hire her, hire her.
My wedding and reception were absolute perfection and if it were not for Ivy and The Silk Veil, my wedding would not have been an ounce of what it was.
Ivy is an expert wedding planner and coordinator. She took my vision and helped me realize how to make it a reality. Her vendor list is amazing, and her taste is phenomenal. I booked most of my vendors straight from her recommendations, and every one of them were outstanding. I adopted the “trust the professionals” outlook in planning, and especially with Ivy and her favorite vendors, I was in fantastic hands.
Ivy and her associates were masterful during the ceremony and reception. I was able to sit back and enjoy the experience while they handled anything and everything – including making sure my husband and I were taken care of during the reception! If anything went wrong, I had no idea and don’t care. She got us both where we needed to be when we needed to be there, made sure that we enjoyed ourselves on our wedding day, and I really could not ask for more! She took care of it all.
She was the best decision that I made for my wedding! I could not recommend her more and I so appreciate all the work that she did behind the scenes for me! Everything was perfect!
I absolutely loved working with Ivy to help plan our wedding. She provided great support and input throughout the planning process and was extremely organized. She also and knew all of our vendors well which streamlined a good amount of the final planning process. Finally, our wedding party and parents loved her enthusiasm through the rehearsal and wedding which made the day even more special. Ivy's team provides excellent quality and service to make your wedding the best day!
Ivy was great. She was very thorough and supportive. Her knowledge and experience helped everything run smoothly. Our wedding party appreciated her straight forward approach. She made sure we (the bride & groom) were taken care of the whole day. She went above and beyond and would highly recommend her services! If you are considering a planner outside of the venue, we definitely encourage it (and especially with Ivy).
Ivy was great! She provided helpful auto-generated timelines to ensure I was on track and a full listing of recommended vendors for all services. She recommended my caterer, Waiters Choice who turned out to be an excellent choice. She responded to my late texts and was very calm and understanding with my floor plan change. She was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend.
LOOK NO FURTHER!!! Ivy is the absolute BEST!!! I cannot say enough great things about Ivy and her team – they did an absolutely amazing job coordinating our wedding. Ivy was so helpful from the start – she had excellent recommendations and resources to keep us on track every step of the way during the wedding planning process. She was extremely helpful in creating a wedding timeline and ensuring that all of the vendors, family and bridal party were where they needed to be throughout the day so that we didn’t even have to think about it. I most appreciated excellent ideas / suggestions and her attention to detail regarding every aspect of our big day! She was an amazing listener and made every single one of my dreams come to life!!! She is EXACTLY who you need to hire to make your wedding day go absolutely seamless. THANK YOU SO MUCH IVY! I simply can’t recommend you and your team enough!
Ivy and her team were wonderful! One of our mothers has significant mobility issues and the Silk Veil team made sure to look after and assist her at every step of the way throughout the night. We also had a rowdy bridal party that Ivy was able to whip into shape during rehearsal all while keeping things light. She checked on us at throughout the night to make sure we had everything we needed, but otherwise just made sure things were running smoothly without us knowing or having to know what was going on around us. We were so pleased and would highly recommend the Silk Veil team!
Ivy is an absolute rockstar. We hired her to be our day of coordinator and she was absolutely terrific to work with. She ensured that our wedding ran very smoothly and on time and coordinated with our other vendors and our venue with very minimal direction needed from us that day. Our ceremony started promptly and flowed exactly as we wanted it to. During our reception, she kept my husband and I on schedule and made sure that we stuck to the timeline that we created. We lost track of time and never went to the photo booth and before they left, she came to us to remind us that they were leaving if we wanted to use it. For those that are on the fence about hiring a coordinator, I strongly urge you to hire one (and to hire Ivy). On the day of your wedding, you do not want to be dealing with putting out fires and making sure everything is running smoothly. I also did not want to trust a family or friend to do it. We are beyond happy that we hired Ivy - she was so professional and just an overall pleasure to work with. Thank you Ivy for making our day perfect!!!
Hiring Ivy and her team for my day of coordinator was the absolute best decision I could have made. I did not have to worry about one single thing. Throughout the planning process, it was quickly apparent how fine a detail this whole team pays, and everything is done with excellence. I was able to just worry about marrying the love of my life and having a good time, rather than if the limos were arriving on time, if the appetizers are coming out when they are supposed to, etc. Can not recommend her and her team enough!!
Hiring Ivy as our wedding planner was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. Ivy’s knowledge and expertise was invaluable. Her recommendations on every aspect of the wedding not only helped us to have the wedding of our dreams but we were able to remain on budget. Additionally, Ivy connected us to wonderful vendors that helped to reduce the wedding planning stress. Ivy’s attention to detail and thoughtfulness helped us to ensure that our guests would appreciate the little unique additions to our special day.
For us, the ceremony was most important. Our ceremony was untraditional. Ivy ensured that the ceremony we envisioned became a reality. She worked closely with us to ensure every unique touch we wanted in the ceremony was included.
If you desire a wedding planner that goes above and beyond, takes great interest in learning the couple she works with, and is able to create the wedding of your dreams within your budget, then Ivy is the wedding planner for you.
We highly recommend Ivy!
Ivy, like the poisonous Vine, what can I say…..I show appreciation more from a financial standpoint. I don’t do all the mushy, sentimental stuff. It’s not me….. but I can not go a day longer without telling you how much you impressed me with your professionalism, courtesy, firmness, instruction, directness, caring attitude, confidence, listening ear, helpfulness, clarity, leadership, attentiveness to detail and so many other words that I could use to tell you what you meant to our wedding. I kept seeing the Silk Veil on my credit card every month or so and I figured that’s just some more stuff that she ordered that we don’t need……. Honestly I was only a payer for most of the wedding stuff and didn’t know what was what. I can tell the world now. You cannot have a wedding without IVY!!!! You are sooooo talented at what you do. You have a way at being a teammate with every vendor but letting them know that it’s the IVY show because I represent the bride and groom. I saw you doing everything from serving plates to bringing drinks. You are EXCELLENT at your job… I mean EXCELLENT. You came to my suite and made me feel so calm when I was nervous and asking questions….Thank you so much for making our day, the most AWESOME wedding ever….. I mean this most respectfully……YOU ARE THE MAN!!! !!!! You’re the real MVP!!! Shaun Golden
First and foremost - I received just as many compliments on my wedding day about Ivy as I did on how beautiful I looked as a bride. I received compliments from every single vendor and guest about how organized and responsive she was as well as how smoothly the day went. I had people at the Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel telling me this was the most well-planned wedding they had ever seen! When I hired Ivy, I had just started planning, and I called her to find out how her wedding packages worked. I was surprised she answered on the first ring, and jumped right into answering my questions about her services, but also offered me some wedding planning advice - free of charge, no strings attached! I should have known from that moment on that I had picked the perfect wedding coordinator and designer. Honestly, if it wasn't for Ivy and her wonderful assistant, Sharolyn, I don't think I would have gotten through the planning, design and coordination of this day. I got way more than I could have imagined working with Ivy - she was my advocate in negotiations, she was my eyes and ears when meeting with vendors, she was able to guide us through the event planning process using her wealth of knowledge and kind personality. She took my 30 person micro wedding just as seriously as she took other clients with three times the guest list. She is a professional. She knows what she's doing. I cannot express this enough - HIRE IVY!
Are you a DIY ..... independent... I don’t need help type of Bride? Used to organizing and handling large events yourself? Wondering if it’s truly worth it? Well I can tell you that was me until I hired Ivy at the Silk Veil Events by Ivy. Her service was exceptional from start to finish! She helped me think about things I hadn’t even considered. She was so professional, helpful and honest. She was everything and more than I knew I ever needed for a Day of Coordinator. Looking back... I should have hired her from the very beginning. Things surly would have been a lot less difficult for me. I can go on and on but I’ll say this....don’t second guess or over think ...HIRE IVY! TODAY! You will thank yourself later!
Ivy was recommended to us by our venue and we’re so glad we contacted her. She is phenomenal and you know from the first meeting she knows what she’s doing. She offers suggestions based on her experience and gives it to you straight if she thinks you need it or you don’t which I love. If there were any hiccups in our wedding we didn’t see them. The wedding was magical and better than my husband and I could have ever dreamed. I highly recommend any bride to hire a wedding coordinator. And if you hire The Silk Events, know that you’re hiring excellence.
I highly recommend Ivy and her colleagues at the Silk Veil! Even in the midst of the COVID pandemic, Ivy and our coordinator, Lisa, did a wonderful job helping us prepare for our special day. Ivy provided our linens and they were reasonably priced and so beautiful. Lisa directed our wedding rehearsal and helped our wedding day run so smoothly. She expertly coordinated the events of the day so that our families could be truly present and enjoy every moment! Thank you so much to Ivy and Lisa- I highly recommend their services!
Great Coordinator, very organized and on track. Very patient and has multiple ideas, words can't describe how great she is, our wedding was a success because she and her team was there through the Covid mess. Love her, love her.
It was such a pleasure to have Ivy bless us with her expertise at our wedding. Her mannerisms. Her warmth. Her willingness to help others, even as she conducts her own duties was phenomenal. Ivy made my experience as a bride so special. She kept me and my now husband her focus and still never skipped a beat as our day of coordinator. Even as I write this I am tearing up, because not only was she there to do her job. She made me feel special and made me feel like family. I would recommend her to any one who is looking for order, structure and peace during their wedding !!! She is simply superb !!!
Ivy was heaven sent! She listened to and executed the vision we had with a special touch of excellence. She helped me figure things out I was unsure of. She became my other brain during the planning process. I hired her 2 months before our wedding and I’m so glad she was available on our date. The day of the wedding, she directed our guests & vendors and made sure my husband and I were well attended to. She also made sure our guests felt honored. She communicates extremely effectively via email, phone calls and text messages. We met in person twice prior to the wedding and she is very well organized. You want professionalism, value, support, peace and expertise? Stop your search and book The Silk Veil Events by Ivy! She gets to the point!
We truly enjoyed working with Ivy on our wedding day. Due to the Covid virus, we had to make some changes. Ivy was so punctual and got us through our special day with what we were able to do. She is organized and so knowledgeable, I would refer her to anyone who is getting married as their coordinator!
Amazing! We had quite a large, diverse group and Ivy made sure our rehearsal was enjoyable and went smoothly. Ivy also made sure everything was out of our hands and no responsibilities fell on any of us or the bridal party, family, etc. - something that is irreplaceable and priceless as the bride. I cannot recommend Ivy enough. From her incredibly personality, her diligence, and her work, she is the total package.
Ivy made our wedding day so amazing ! I couldn’t thank her enough.Throughout the entire planning process she made sure we stayed on budget and were aware of the many details we would cover to make sure our wedding day was everything we wanted it to be! She recommended some great vendors that also contributed to our day being amazing ! If you are looking for someone to execute your vision and bring it to life Ivy is the one to hire!
The services Ivy and her team provided were by far the best money we spent for our wedding! Ivy helped pull everything together and her team were absolute pros carrying out the day of coordination. Ivy was kind and helpful throughout the process and her schedule kept our special day on track. Her team members that worked with us on the day of the wedding were incredible, keeping everything running smoothly and making my dream a reality. My day was perfect thanks to Ivy and her team that went above and beyond all of my expectations. We really cannot thank her and her team enough for all they did for us!
Ivy is super organized and thorough! I never could’ve made it through our big day without her crew! From start to finish, The Silk Veil offered professional coordination services while paying attention to the smallest of details!
From the very beginning, Ivy was very personable and dependable. Even before we made the decision to book the silk veil, Ivy dedicated time to meet with us as well as communicated frequently to provide venue options. We found our venue from her recommendations.
I was aware that Ivy may or may not be our day of coordinator from the start but was still very nervous when we found out that she would send one of her other coordinators to take care of our big day. Ivy arranged a meeting for my fiancé and I to meet our coordinator, Lisa.
On our big day, Lisa was FANTASTIC. She was everything we didn’t know we needed! Lisa is like an angel on earth. Just the presence of her calmed me. She was very organized and made sure our day was beyond perfect. I cannot thank the silk veil enough for keeping me calm on such a crazy day and making sure everything went smoothly. I HIGHLY recommend.
Ivy was one of the first vendors I booked. She was recommended to me by a mutual friend for day of coordination. Leading up to the event Ivy was super responsive with communication and always answered my questions in a timely manner. The day of the wedding she proved to be crucial when we had some transportation issues Uptown with the busy Pride weekend. I am not sure what I would have done without her to smooth out that issue. These are the types of situations where having a DOC is crucial and Ivy was on POINT the entire day/night!
Ivy from the Silk Veil was a pleasure to work with. She’s quick, attentive to detail, and keeps everyone on track throughout the entire reception. She also builds rapport with all the guest which creates a scenes of community.
Can’t recommend her enough.
Taylor & Katie Barnes
Ivy is THE BEST! She's on point! All I can say our wedding ran so smoothly. It was perfect in our eyes. Even if there were any issues, we were not aware of it cause Ivy was running the show. If you are looking for a worry free perfect day go with Ivy. From the rehearsal , to the day of everything was perfect. That is the only way I can describe working with Ivy, just Perfect!
Response from the Vendor on 08/18/2019
Thank you! It was such a pleasure. Congrats Again
We used Ivy as our month of coordinator and I am so glad we did! From the very first phone call (we were based in California so our first meetings were over the phone), we could tell that she was highly experienced and knew what she was doing. Furthermore, when we told our vendors that we were using Ivy, they all said how much they loved her (our florist, photographer, videographer, venue and caterer all said amazing things about her when they heard we were working with her). This made us feel even more comfortable with our decision. On the day of, she had everything set up nicely for us and made sure we stayed on time. She made sure we had drinks when we wanted them and quiet time when we wanted that. She was absolutely amazing. I can’t imagine any coordinator doing a better job.
Response from the Vendor on 08/18/2019
Thank you so much. You two were such a pleasure to work with.
Ivy was absolutely amazing! From our initial telephone conversation, I knew she was the real deal and we were going to be in good hands. After meeting in person and going over our day of ideas, plans and expectations, my husband left saying, "I like Ivy, she knows what she's doing and she's going to be good!" And that she was! Ivy had everything organized and communicated with all of my vendors prior to the day and made me feel more relaxed. She really has a great way of making you feel calm while getting things done. Ivy has a great personality and is very easy to work with while also being able to step in and take control of any situation. She was definitely worth the investment and I have her to thank for the day running smoothly and everything being carried out how I envisioned! I highly recommend hiring Ivy as your coordinator!
Response from the Vendor on 08/18/2019
Hi Jill. Thank you. I apologize for the delay but I just realized I can respond lol. What a fun wedding! Please Tell Michael I say hello.
Ivy did an awesome job from start to finish. I hired her a year out from my wedding and she guided me through the whole wedding planning process. She gave me advice, met with me several times and was professional the whole time. The day of the wedding, Ivy was on her A-Game! Several of my guests asked where I had found her and many stated that they were impressed with how she was doing. My father, who is a very hard man to please, said she deserved a 5 star rating and even reached out to her to thank her for all her hard work.
Ivy is amazing!! I had been referred to her by a friend who had previously used her and had rave reviews! I contracted her for day of services and she did way more than I expected! She made a schedule for the day, contacted and made sure all vendors had a schedule as well. She runs a tight ship and I loved every minute of it! She’s great keeping the bridal party in line and making sure everything runs smoothly! She is honestly a steal for what she charges as you get so much more!!!
If you are still searching for a coordinator, whether it be a full on coordinator or a day of coordinator; look no further! My husband and I have been married for 12 days and we're still talking about how Ms. Ivy handled our wedding like a boss! Our family also has high praise for Ms. Ivy as well. From our pre-wedding meeting to rehearsal to the wedding day, Ms. Ivy was/is amazing; she is easy to work with, provided great advice and insight when I was being indecisive and even how to handle family members who refused to RSVP. Our wedding day flowed effortless because of Ms. Ivy. Ms. Ivy has been in the business for 10+ years and it shows. Again, look no further...book The Silk Veil asap!!!
I cannot even express in words how amazing Ivy was for our wedding!!! She provided me with a complete schedule for the day which helped keep everyone else on track so I didn't have to worry about the flow of the wedding. She saved the day when something didn't go right with our flowers, and she kept her cool so that I didn't stress out on my special day. My whole family and friends loved her, and we felt she not only did her job but tried to get to know everyone and be part of our group. Ivy goes above and beyond what her job description entails, and I couldn't have asked for a better person to handle our wedding day! I would HIGHLY recommend her to future brides. Thank you Ivy!!!
Ivy was my day of coordinator for my wedding and she was amazing from beginning to end!!! She made our day so stress free and special by keeping things so organized. Our guests even commented on how amazing she was and how she was so kind to everyone she spoke too. I would hire Ivy all over again because she was that fabulous!!!
We hired The Silk Veil as day of
coordinators for my wedding on September 14! Our coordinator for the day was April and she did a fantastic job! She was very organized and made sure that my husband and I were shielded from much of the craziness going on behind the scenes. We were afraid that our wedding would get cancelled because of hurricane Florence, but April and Ivy were able to immediately go to a plan B and made sure our wedding was BEAUTIFUL! Thank you Ivy and April for making our day extra special 😊
We can’t say enough great things about Ivy! She was professional, punctual, and made our wedding day run like clockwork! We had a lot of fun (and laughs) during the planning process and I can honestly say that our wedding day was PERFECT. In addition to hiring Ivy as our planner, we also used her for linen rentals and I would highly recommend her linen services as well. Do yourself a favor and hire Ivy because she does an incredible job for the best price! We are so thankful to her and her team for making our wedding day the best day ever!
I truly mean it when I say that I could not have done this without Ivy!! She answered my millions of questions and guided me throughout the entire planning process. Not to mention, her wedding guide is the only wedding guide you could ever need! Ivy is so knowledgeable and gives practical advice in all situations. On our wedding day, she kept everything running smoothly and made sure that every single detail was taken care of. I would recommend Ivy to anyone and everyone who is planning a wedding!!! Cannot say enough good things.
Ivy was a lifesaver for our wedding—we are a tough group of cats to herd and she managed us with ease the day of our wedding. She helped us get a solid timeline in place and then kept us on track and in place for the rehearsal and the wedding. Don’t underestimate how much you need someone fully dedicated to coordinating and doing all the moving pieces the day of—it’s a tough and thankless job and you don’t want a family member distracted and frustrated with it all day. Ivy really knows how to keep it all going smoothly and let you just have the time of your life on your wedding day!! Thanks Ivy!
Ivy was a dream to work with. From day one of meeting her, we knew she was who we wanted to work with. She was organized, knowledgeable, fun and REAL. Prior to the wedding, she had excellent communication and gave us advice on everything from how to seat our parents at the ceremony to how much time we needed for each part of the day. She kept reminding us that it was OUR day and that we were never going to please everyone, which we certainly needed to hear. At the wedding itself, she was our saving grace. She kept us on schedule, adjusted when necessary and was quick to get her hands dirty (bringing us plates of food for dinner, catering to our grandparents, and even delivering trays of water). Ivy went above and beyond our expectations and we couldn't have done it without her! Thank you, Ivy!
Ivy is hands down AMAZING. We hired her for our day of coordinator and she did an amazing job. If anything went wrong we never knew. Ivy has a very bubbly personality and knows how to get things done! We recommend ivy 110%. Plus she is super reasonable with her prices.
We used Ivy as our month-of coordinator and couldn’t have been more thrilled with everything! She was so professional and helped us put our perfect day together! I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone! Thank you so much!!
Amazing!!! Absolutely recommend!! My wedding day was stress free and perfect, I could not have done it without Ivy. She is a perfectionist, every little detail was covered. She was attentive and organized. I am so glad I found Ivy to help with our dream wedding day!!!
I can say so much about Ivy.... She is/was the ABSOLUTE best! I originally contracted her for DOC. However, after “attempting” to plan my own wedding, I realized I needed help - structure. I reached out to Ivy to upgrade my package and she took my vision and brought it to life with PERFECTION - no exaggeration!
From start to finish, she did an AMAZING job. From reviewing contracts, to keeping within your budget, to reminding me of the little things we tend to forget, to bringing me back in from potentially spending unnecessary money. For me, communication was important – no question was ever a dumb question. Ivy took the time to make everything make sense, and/or why something would not work. There was not a time that I could not reach her, even times, I reached out to her after "normal" (11PM) hours not expecting a reply, she replied.
Everyone told me, do not worry something always goes wrong on wedding day, but I beg to differ. My wedding day was beyond words. It was all that I dreamed and more. My husband and I was so amazed at the work the team did, it brought us to tears. My entire wedding party, including my Pastor raved about Ivy’s professionalism, attention to detail, her ability to organize and execute, and keep everyone on point. I had been to seven weddings prior to own, and grateful to have had the opportunity to have Ivy execute my wedding. She is definitely a Godsend with a gift/talent that many lack. I would highly recommend any Bride & Groom use her for their wedding services, and MORE!! :) :)
P.S
More is coming - I am speaking into to existence for you. :):)
Ivy, you are worth a billion times your weight in gold. Everything was seamless and amazing all because of you and your staff. You all went above and beyond and we couldn't be more pleased. Early in planning I was debating on hiring a DOC and I am so so so glad I did. You kept us all in line and made sure everything was perfect. I honestly cannot say enough good things about you. Thank you so very much for all your hard work and going the extra mile to make sure all was well. Silk Veil Events should be every Bride and Grooms first choice in wedding planning. It is absolutely beyond belief how amazing they are!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
I cannot even begin to say enough about how OUTSTANDING Ivy was!!!!!!! I booked her around August 2016 and our wedding was November 2017- from start to finish Ivy was wonderful. She was VERY detailed & organized which I absolutely loved, without her I would've forgotten so many details, and all of those little details made our day absolutely perfect thanks to Ivy. So I've talked about how great the planning process was but how she was the day of still has me speechless- she was more AMAZING than I could've imagined for the day of and truly went above & beyond to make our day SO perfect. I brought a TON of DIY decor & she set everything up so I didn't have to worry about at ALL the day of (from a photo booth, cigar bar, tons of mason jars, table cards, bar area, various pictures scattered, etc.). She gave all of my vendors a tour of the venue & guided them where to be & when. Right after the ceremony when we were taking pictures she even made sure the caterers came over to us (bridal party & family) to bring us appetizers & drinks, I was blown away. If anything didn't work out at the wedding or something happened, I didn't even know about it at all- Ivy literally did AMAZING, she kept everything so coordinated from start to finish and I am crazy about organization. Affordable price and worth every penny- If you book anyone other than Ivy, you are missing out & will be disappointed. Ivy was outstanding & I would book her again in a heartbeat!!!!!
My experience working with Ivy "Queen of Coordination" was truly a blessing. As an individual who is fairly organized and loves being in the details of things, initially I thought that I would plan my own wedding. I even went as far as buying a wedding certification course on Groupon (which I never took). Always knowing that I would need someone the day of to help me, I considered hiring a friend. EASY! I cannot remember the exact details that lead me to Ivy. However, I am sooooo grateful that our paths crossed. During our initial conversation (I remember it like yesterday) when I told her what my time constraints were with 4 hours to complete both the ceremony and reception, she explained what needed to happen and when to help me meet my allotted time. She explained elements of the event that I did not even think about it and stuff that I just didn't know to think about. After we got off the phone, I wanted to get her opinion of table center pieces that I had started to make myself. I sent her a picture through text and she candidly replied they were good for a party, but not the type of wedding that I described to her. She also told politely me they looked cheap :) I could only laugh because it was TRUE! I immediately responded "You're hired." Ivy is honest and fun. She understands and knows the wedding industry. She was able to recommend several vendors (all of which were AH-mazing!). During my wedding reception, she made sure my husband and I were taken care of and had "us" time to eat amongst a room full of people. She thought about our older guests and pregnant mothers to be allowed them to be served first. She made sure the wedding party knew exactly what to do. I have received so many compliments pertaining to the flow of my wedding day. Within the four hours, we were never rushed. Your wedding day is special. For any bride that will want to savor the moments of that special day without being stressed, hire Ivy. I was asked several times the weeks leading up to the wedding whether or not I needed help with anything. My answer was always "no, my wedding coordinator is taken care of it all." She allowed me to text and email whenever I wanted to. I know hands down, my wedding would not have been the same without Ivy. She I would hire her 1000X over! I partially feel like she is family! :- )
Ivy was fantastic to work with! She was on top of everything from start to finish. She made sure everything on our wedding day went off without a hitch. We were fed, had a drink in our hand and everyone was where they were supposed to be. I would absolutely recommend Ivy!
Ivy and her team are amazing. Ivy is very thorough and literally thinks of everything. She gave great ideas on the layout of the reception. We had Sebron and April on our wedding day and they were amazing. Everything went smoothly on our wedding day and we are so thankful for Ivy and her team for making that happen.
Amazing! Ivy was a fantastic coordinator, making sure that everyone in our group was where they needed to be, when they needed to be there (with our clan, I know that was like herding cats). She was amazing in helping us think through details that just hadn't occurred to us, and making sure that all the vendors were on the same page so that the whole day ran like clockwork. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!!
5 STAR WEDDING PLANNER/COORDINATOR! I hired Ivy for Month of Wedding Coordination and being the hard worker she is, she was involved in assisting me well before the month of ! I was also planning my wedding long distance and she made it so easy for me to work with her over the phone and through email. Ivy and her assistant Lisa executed my wedding rehearsal, ceremony, and reception flawlessly! I can't thank them enough for all that they did to ensure my day was perfect!
Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience with The Silk Veil Events by Ivy! Not only is Ivy very personable she is very knowledgeable in every aspect of wedding planning and offered ideas and referrals to some of the best vendors in the industry. She allowed me to have my bride fits and diva moments but kept things moving. I felt like I gain a new friend through this stressful process. I would recommend her to anyone!
Ivy was the best!!! She was on top of her game and made sure everything went perfect for our wedding!!! We had a few game time changes and she rolled with them like that was the plan the whole time. Could not have done the wedding and reception without her!!! If you think you don't need any help day of, you are wrong!!! Hire Ivy and you will not have any regrets!!!
Ivy and Lisa were so helpful in getting us prepared and organized for the wedding. I met with Ivy and Lisa several times, including a walk through and covered all the questions I hadn't even though to ask. I felt very comfortable with both of them, and confident that everything would go as planned. My stress level dropped every time we met! Lisa was my day-of coordinator and we got lots of compliments on the way that she kept things moving and responded to any issues that came up. I highly recommend!!
It was really awesome to work with Ivy at the Silk Veil. She has so much experience and really pulled everything together as our day-of coordinator. We couldn't have done it without her. She helped make our day perfect in our eyes! She is organized, thorough, and detail-oriented. There was nothing I would've changed about our day, including picking Ivy as our coordinator! Thank you Ivy!!!
Ivy was the BEST!! She is very professional, well organized, and really knows the ins and outs of everything wedding related. We had rain on our wedding day, so it threw a huge monkey wrench into how the day was planned to go. Ivy was very quick on her feet and made sure we got things back on track and ensured that the day was a success. It was a joy working with Ivy. We would highly recommend The Silk Veil Events by Ivy.
Where do I start? From the very first meeting with Ivy Honeycutt of The Silk Veil Events by Ivy, I was impressed. I knew right away that she was who I wanted as our wedding planner! Her knowledge and relationships with local vendors made the process easier and a lot less stressful! Ivy and her team are professional and very organized. The day of the wedding I did not have one worry in my mind - I knew that my day was in excellent hands. Ivy and her team executed a flawless day for me and my now husband. We have received several comments on how this was the "best wedding" our guests have attended! Thank you Ivy!!!!
