The Simply Elegant Group

u get this message. Thank you. 9012054601

recommendations, and keeping us on track throughout the planning process. And an even bigger thank you to Hayley Mudd, who absolutely crushed it during the final two months and on our wedding day. She coordinated all of our vendors, handled every little detail behind the scenes, and made sure I never had to worry about logistics. The biggest compliment I can give is that I never felt like I was coordinating my own wedding. I got to actually be present and enjoy the day with my husband, family, and friends. ❤️ Thank you, Tay, Hayley, and the Simply Elegant team for helping make our day so special! 😊

SSLY. I did not have to worry about a thing the entire day - just got to enjoy it! Not only that, but she is a delight of a human being. If you are on the fence, definitely book!

g process from start to finish! Jaidyn is incredibly professional, organized, thorough, kind, with incredible attention to detail - everything you would dream of in a wedding planner. From all the planning calls and texts leading up to the big day, to our actual wedding day, Jaidyn made every single part feel so seamless. She took all the stress away from me and executed so perfectly! Both of our families also commented on how wonderful Jaidyn was on our wedding day. I feel SO fortunate to have worked with Jaidyn and would recommend her 1000x! If you are in the Dallas/Fort Worth area - you should highly consider requesting Jaidyn as your SEG planner! Thank you for absolutely EVERYTHING, Jaidyn!!!!!!!!!

thought of. I would definitely recommend working with The Simply Elegant Group. 10/10 experience start to finish!

ng and day of. She kept everything on track and made sure the day ran smoothly.

ver once felt overwhelmed. She had trusted connections for every type of vendor we needed (some even came with discounts!), responded to every email and phone call promptly, and somehow managed to take all of our scattered thoughts and turn them into one seamless, easy-to-follow plan. Throughout our multi-day wedding weekend, she went above and beyond — making sure we (and our families) were on time, hydrated, fed, and actually enjoying ourselves. Multiple family members commented on how incredible she was and how much calmer they felt knowing Ashley had everything handled. There was such a sense of comfort in knowing she was behind the scenes making everything run smoothly. I truly cannot recommend her enough. Hiring Ashley was hands down one of the best decisions we made. I didn’t fully realize how much mental space and stress a wedding planner takes off your plate until we experienced it firsthand. Because of her, the planning process was fun and exciting instead of overwhelming — and our wedding weekend felt joyful, seamless, and completely present. If you're even considering booking her — just do it. You will not regret it.

She was extremely effective in her communication with vendors, often going to bat for our interests and helping us get the best ROI. Our wedding day felt smooth, beautiful, and completely stress-free—and that’s almost entirely because of her. Every detail felt thoughtful and intentional. Our guests are still talking about how gorgeous and well-organized everything was. We were able to be fully present and actually enjoy the day, which is the best gift we could have asked for. She also handled a last-minute switch to the rain plan flawlessly. What could have been stressful ended up feeling just as special and well thought-out as Plan A, which says a lot about her flexibility and expertise. If you’re considering working with SEG, don't think twice. And if they'll let you, ask for Victoria specificallly. She will make your day better in every way.

nt concierge, was a great communicator, easy to schedule with and introduced us to the amazing SEG Wedding Workbook which helped us kickstart the process while waited for our planner to be assigned. Then, we met Victoria a month out and we cannot say enough about how wonderful she is. Victoria is professional, organized, extremely detail oriented and brings the best energy to the table! We had been planning our wedding for months leading up to meeting Victoria so I was nervous "handing over the reigns" and couldn't imagine how she could catch up to speed so quickly... but she did that, and so much more. She exceeded our every expectation and my only regret was not having started with her sooner! The Monday before our wedding, the entire wedding plan had to change due to weather and Victoria was cool as a cucumber and on a mission to iron out all the details so we could just relax and focus on our big day. She helped us with an entirely new layout, updated all of our vendors, and she and her day-of assistant (Monica!) brought our vision to life in an entirely different space. It was magical and I tear up just thinking about it. Victoria executed everything flawlessly, kept my husband (so fun to say!) and I on time, made sure we were fed and had drinks the whole night and even helped us iron out some snafus that arose with the venue. If you are getting married in the Austin area, go with SEG and ask for Victoria. She is the absolute best and she deserves 10/10 stars because everything went topsy-turvy in the final hour and she handled it like a wedding planning Queen! Thank you so much SEG, and Victoria and Monica for making our wedding perfect. We don't know what we would have done without you!!!

y, they truly took the stress off our shoulders and made everything feel seamless and easy. We were able to fully enjoy our wedding knowing everything was in such capable hands. This was absolutely money well spent and, honestly, a must for any couple planning their wedding!

l feat when both families are from out of town! Ilisha made sure our wedding day was perfect and helped us incorporate meaningful traditions into our big day. She allowed us to enjoy the day, kept our stress level at 0%, and kept everything light and fun. Some of our guests even came up to us to compliment her! Some of our favorites were: "She's such a boss!", "A bad-a** in the best way", and "Somehow she had everything under control without even being seen!" We 100% cosign on all of these. We cannot recommend SEG and Ilisha enough.

to detail is unmatched, and she truly brings every wedding vision to life beautifully. I always love working with Melody—she ensures nothing is overlooked and that every timeline is executed perfectly down to the last second.

assigned as our lead coordinator. She was organized, collaborative, friendly, and truly passionate about bringing our dream event come to life! She helped me with making some last-minute decisions and changes related to our wedding weekend timeline, and she handled it with so much grace and professionalism. On the day of our wedding, I never once worried about things going to plan because of her and her team. She made sure everything was coordinated with vendors, that all logistics were covered, and that all details were executed as discussed. 10/10 recommend!

ANK YOU GRACE!!!

y. She listened carefully, really understood what we were after, and brought it to life. Melody perfectly walked the balance of giving exactly as much control as we wanted and handling all the rest. Melody was ahead of the ball on everything and any time there was a bump she came with solutions ready. We really don't know how we would've done it without her (and under budget too!).

ody ROY. If you are considering hiring her as your wedding planner, let this be a sign to not think any further. HIRE HER, YOU WONT REGRET IT She’s worth every cent and even more. She’s organized, meticulous, thorough, thoughtful, kind, intelligent, genuine, and all of the characteristics that you want someone to plan your wedding When my husband and I first met her, we knew we could trust her with this. As two physicians, we are incredibly busy and quite frankly hard to impress. We also needed somebody who is meticulous and a true leader. Melody helped me in every single process, with  every single vendor, every single decision,  every twist and turn she was there. She was fully present in all of our conversations. At one point she was going through a rough personal experience and SHE STILL SHOWED UP. As a bride, decision fatigue is one of the worst things!!!!. She got to know me, she got to know what I liked and made executive (behind the scene) decisions on my behalf. Some things like how many standing cocktail tables vs sitting tables are needed is not something the bride needs to worry about! Our wedding was the most incredible day ever. Our first few meetings were purely financial. She started off by making us a budget. And yes this girl can work in ANY budget. She’s flexible, she’s resourcefull! She never presented an option that was beyond our budget so I could fall in love with it and not be able to afford it. Actually, the only time I went above budget was my wedding dress when Melody wasn’t there LOLLL I interviewed many wedding planners before I chose Melody. I put all of my time and effort in finding her so I didn’t have to plan a HUGE day that becomes with so much anxiety and stress. Our next meetings were followed up with vendor selections. The wedding market is SATURATED. It’s so NICE to be given 2-3 options of vendors in your budget that you will like. Dare I say, she made wedding planning fun. She checked in on me the days leading up to the wedding, which were invaluable. Needless to say this girl knows what she’s doing. And day of? She was executing!! Fixing zippers of dresses for both bridesmaids and guest. She took care of everyone. There was a HUGE SNOW STORM on the wedding day. We pivoted where we needed to kept the course where we needed as well. IT WAS ALL HANDLED. No I do not personally know her and no there is no incentive to this review. Just a bride who is so grateful to have had an AWESOME PLANNER.

he jump, took charge when needed, and made our wedding day so special. We feel grateful to have worked with her,  and could trust that she was taking care of everything not only day of, but along the way as well. It was beyond helpful having her to keep us on track day of. Highly recommend Simply Elegant and Grace!! 

ay of. She solved every issue and handled all fires with such grace that I didn't even know they were happening. Brides - this is exactly what you want for a planner and day-of coordinator! I'm recommending SEG to all of my friends and brides-to-be.

who was just the best. She made my day so easy and was always there when I needed her. I was so impressed with her organization and how everything just managed to get done. I can truly say the whole day I was relaxed and present, having no doubts that everything was handled.

y made our ~18 month planning process smooth, calm, and fun. She connected us with the best vendors, was always available to answer questions, calmed our nerves, and kept us comfortably within our budget. We never felt pressured to book anything outside of our budget constraints, and Ashley found creative alternatives for when my dreams got a little beyond my means! On the wedding day Ashley kept everything fun and calm and handled all of the personalities that come with a large family wedding. She was incredible throughout the process and we honestly miss working with her- she was that fun! We cannot recommend SEG enough and are so grateful they made our wedding such a dream day. 

ing day seamless. I could not recommend SEG and Caroline enough. 

ine!! We are forever grateful for your efforts!

rything run smoothly and took so much off our plate so we could actually enjoy our day!

that the team provides are awesome (especially for my fellow type A peeps out there). We had the pleasure of working with Margaret leading up and day-of and it was so wonderful from start to finish. Margaret let me "do my thing," while providing the best support, guidance and comfort to keep us in-check and feeling good the whole time. Would recommend working with SEG to everyone! xx

feel so cared for and understood. She listened to every detail of our vision and found ways to make it even better than we imagined. Caroline was always so calm, kind, and reassuring which gave us so much peace of mind during the planning process. No matter how big or small the question she was there with answers, advice, and encouragement. She genuinely felt like a friend walking alongside us and not just a planner. On our wedding day, Caroline was nothing short of amazing. She took care of every detail so seamlessly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. We literally didn’t have to worry about a single thing knowing she was there. We are forever grateful to Caroline and The Simply Elegant Group for making our wedding day so beautiful, stress-free, and filled with joy. We couldn’t have done it without her and we’ll always remember how special she made this entire experience.

ase. She gave us so much invaluable advice based on her experience, which really helped us make decisions with confidence. Leading up to the wedding, she coordinated with all of our vendors and made sure every detail was covered. Not only was she incredibly organized, keeping everyone on track all day and making sure everything ran seamlessly, but she was also so fun to hang out with. It was truly like having another friend be a part of your big day. We honestly can’t imagine how the day would have gone without her. Highly, highly recommend.

free. There are many things you may not think about for your wedding day, Lindsay handled everything behind the scenes and made sure everything went flawlessly. I can not recommend her/ Simply elegant enough especially considering the price!

not have done it without her!

mately two months before the wedding, which gave us ample time to go over all the important details in advance. From the start, she was organized, proactive, and incredibly supportive, ensuring that every aspect of the day was thoughtfully planned. Grace went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and on schedule. Her communication throughout the entire process was exceptional—she kept in regular contact with us, consistently followed up with our vendors, and made sure that all contracts, deadlines, and logistics were handled with precision. She held everyone (including us!) accountable in a way that was kind, professional, and effective. Beyond her logistical expertise, Grace brings an effortless sense of style and calm to the planning process. She is incredibly chic and composed, and her presence brought an added layer of confidence and elegance to the day. We are so grateful to have had her guidance and support—she truly helped bring our vision to life and made our day stress-free and unforgettable.

edding, and we are SO GRATEFUL. From the start, she jumped right in to help us make our day perfect. Her energy is unmatched and she went above and beyond for my husband and I preparing for our wedding day (and the day of the wedding of course!). Her responses were incredibly quick, and she knows everything there is to know about wedding planning. She reached out to all of our vendors, gave us detailed and specific lists of what we still needed to do and prioritize leading up to the wedding, and made sure every single vendor knew exactly what to do and when. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone, and I wish I could give her 100 stars!! She is super confident and a natural leader, and I felt so comfortable going through our final walkthrough and schedule with her because she truly knows her sh*t. I had absolutely no stress leading up to the wedding (everyone I talked to was shocked about this) and it's all thanks to Grace. The day of the wedding she would check in periodically but otherwise made sure every single detail was PERFECT. I didn't have to think about anything except having a magical time with my husband :) My only regret is that we didn't have her with us from the beginning, as I think we would have really benefited from her negotiation skills and help finding a perfect venue. Can't thank her enough!

lody!

question we had (and there were a lot!), gave us the best recommendations, and made vendor communications so smooth that we never had to stress. When the wedding weekend came, Grace truly blew us away. She brought our vision to life perfectly, handled every little detail behind the scenes, and even stepped in with so much calm and kindness when family tensions came up. Because of her, we were able to just relax and soak in every moment without worrying about a thing. We are so grateful for Grace and honestly can’t imagine our day without her. Any couple would be lucky to have her on their team. We love her so much. Definitely request Grace to be your planner!

ing us through the planning process. In the weeks leading up to our wedding Grace communicated flawlessly with all of our vendors and helped answer my questions to ensure the day went smoothly. On the wedding day, she handled every detail seamlessly, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy the moment. Grace’s professionalism, calm presence, and dedication made our day absolutely perfect, we couldn’t have done it without her!

2 timeline meetings. These were key touchpoint spread out over our year of working with Simply Elegant to be on target for our Big Day. We were provided with a digital wedding workbook that allowed us to plan, organize, and track all of the key aspects of our wedding day from ceremony timeline, reception timeline, attending guest list, to inventory. This resource was invaluable to keep us organized and also to have a shared document with our planner Hanh. The day of our wedding was seamless and we received many compliments from our 120 guests about how organized our wedding day was and the high level of execution and level of detail. Hanh checked in with us regularly to assist us in any way that she could and was the key point of contact with our other wedding vendors including caterer and florist. Hanh exceeded our high expectations in so many ways including all of her timely and detailed communication throughout the planning process and on the wedding day. She even took the time to learn the dance steps to a Bollywood song that we had invited our family and friends to learn in advance of the wedding so that everyone could dance together in a flash mob! Thank you Hanh and Simply Elegant for your many contributions to creating the very best day of our lives!

were assigned our day-of coordinator, Mimi, things didn’t go smoothly. I raised concerns before the wedding about whether she understood my vision, and unfortunately, those concerns played out on the day. There were multiple miscommunications—she gave incorrect instructions that caused the groomsmen to miss our first look, confused vendor info, and didn’t follow the timeline I carefully prepared. She also appeared in the background of several photos unnecessarily, and her assistant wasn’t equipped to help with setup at all. A friend of mine ended up stepping in and doing the majority of the setup, which wasn’t her responsibility and almost made her late to our ceremony. In the end, I truly feel like things wouldn’t have gone any differently had we not hired a coordinator at all—which is disappointing given how important this role is. I do appreciate that she helped retrieve a forgotten car and stayed late to help with decor cleanup, but unfortunately, those moments didn’t outweigh the stress and confusion we experienced. Giving 3 stars because parts of the service were handled professionally and the early communication was great, but overall, the support on the wedding day just wasn’t what we needed or expected.
