I chose Tira because she has great reviews online. I found her to be authentic and approachable, but unfortunately, cannot recommend her as a wedding planner based on my experience. While I understand wedding planners do a lot behind the scenes, I struggled to see the full value Tira and her two assistants added on the day of the wedding.
Sharing some, not all, of my experience below:
Last-Minute Schedule Updates: Tira gave me a 1-day notice, that she would be out of town and then occupied with another wedding, the week before my wedding week.
Unkind Behavior Toward Guests: After the wedding, three family members/guests mentioned that Tira had been unkind to/short with them. While this was not my personal experience, it was still concerning to hear.
Timeline Adjustments/Being dishonest?: Dinner ran an hour late, but Tira never communicated a plan to adjust the timeline. This was especially concerning as I didn’t want the videographer to leave before the first dance. Tira assured me she had arranged for the videographer to stay later, but this turned out to be untrue. Our groomsmen stepped in and paid the videographer to stay an extra hour. When my sister asked Tira to address the issue, Tira's response was "Tell the bride I'm eating, I'll talk to her later."
Ruined intimate moment: A picture of my late grandfather was supposed to be displayed on a nearby cocktail table during my father/daughter dance. The table was there, but the picture was missing. This oversight was particularly emotional and disappointing. I know details fall through the cracks at weddings, but I would have liked a heads up that grandpa's photo wouldn't be there. He meant so much to both my dad and I.
Poor vendor coordination: I planned a private father/daughter dance during the cocktail hour. However, Tira did not ensure the DJ had not conducted a sound check and was good to go. The audio quality was horrible for our entire dance. Additionally, guests were scheduled to enter the reception area immediately after, making it critical that the DJ’s setup should have been working properly.
First dance: After a lengthy and awkward pause, I had to personally cue the DJ to start the music for my first dance. I have no clue where Tira or her assistants were.
Cultural dance: After the first dance, we had a surprise cultural performance. Tira was supposed to send in the final dancer but did not. I had to send someone else to find him and let him know it was time to perform. While we were waiting for the final performer to enter, my husband and I were dancing in the middle of the floor trying to keep the energy going. My no-rhythm-having husband's ONE REQUEST for the entire wedding was to minimize the amount of time he had to be in the spotlight dancing. I will hear about this until death do us part.
Vendor communication: Leading up to the wedding, multiple vendors reached out expressing confusion over Tira’s emails. They were unclear about arrival times and expectations and reported that Tira’s responses to their questions were insufficient. In short - this meant I had a lot of extra work to do.
Despite these challenges, I want to emphasize that Tira and I didn't leave the wedding on bad terms. However, unlike every other vendor I hired, Tira never followed up with me after the wedding. Given that it has been over three months, I felt it was appropriate to share my feedback publicly rather than directly.

Tira is TOP NOTCH!!! Take it from this indecisive lazy perfectionist bride – she is truly the best! We clicked with her immediately after vetting many others. Her follow up and follow through is unsurpassed. She offered incredible recommendations based off our budget and vision, and when our budget would not allow us to afford certain elements, she provided creative solutions that I would’ve never considered. Our wedding day was a DREAM thanks to her and the many vendors she helped us acquire. She is highly connected and very communicative throughout the entire process. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! Thank you, Tira. We will never be over the magic that was our wedding day, and we will be forever grateful for you. Love, The Setaros

We were married on June 1st on a Watermark Yacht in Annapolis, MD. We chose Tira based on her responsiveness to our requests on this website, and from our very first phone call, I just knew we would be in great hands. I genuinely feel that she went above and beyond for us and created the wedding we hoped for! My wife and I are not the best "planners"; we forget to do things, put them off, and don't have the best time management skills. Tira remained patient with us through the entire process and provided gentle and direct reminders, which were so welcomed and needed! She laughed with us, celebrated with us, and did it with her calm demeanor and sense of humor! She made sure that all of the details that we hadn't even thought of were attended to, and she knew the perfect vendors to refer us to. She had a large selection of vendors with whom she worked, and they all clearly enjoyed working with her, which was such a bonus. She advocated for us with our vendors when needed, took care of the potentially more challenging aspects of the planning and interface with vendors, and made sure we got what we wanted. She made us feel accepted and provided us with a safe space to have such a great event for our friends and family to celebrate us! She even braved Annapolis Pride to get all of the things we needed on the boat! She took some of my favorite candid shots of the day, ones that my friends and family didn't get, which was such a gift while we wait to get our professional photos.
I will miss working with her and get a little tearful about it because she is a phenomenal human being and an exceptional wedding planner.

We were so thankful to have had Tira as part of our wedding team! As our moth-of coordinator, she created our timeline, coordinated with our vendors, ran the ceremony rehearsal and kept us on track all throughout the day. Whenever a small complication popped up, Tira and her team were on top of it 100% and made sure it didn't turn into anything major. Several of our guests even commented on how she kept everything running so smoothly! Our day definitely would not have been "perfect" without her. If you are on the fence about hiring a planner or coordinator, do it! And pick Tira!

Tira was amazing. I was so hesitant about spending money to hire a day of coordinator, but I knew I had most of the big things planned out prior, but I am so grateful we made the decision we did. She pulled together all of the fine details and helped make our day go smoothly so my husband and I could enjoy our wedding with our loved ones. Tira and her Assistant were present for our rehearsal and the day of the wedding and orchestrated everything between the vendors. She made me a schedule for the day of the wedding so that all I had to do was show up. I didn’t have to worry about a thing, and on your wedding day that is so very refreshing after doing so much planning. My husband and I had the most wonderful wedding and Tira played a HUGE role in making that possible!!

My husband and I were truly blessed to work with Tira. She was the epitome of a excellence. She guided us through the planning process from beginning to end. She kept an anxious bride in check and assured us that everything would come together. Believe her when she say's "Trust the process". My vision truly came to fruition on my wedding day and everything went down without a hitch. Do me a favor and contact her today!

Tira was a lifesaver! After having issues initially planning on our own, we knew we needed help. Tira to the rescue!! She recommended nearly every vendor we used while keeping our budget in mind. Tira was also able to stay on top of our deadlines and coordinate all meetings for us- saving us tons of stress! Our families were elated to actually be able to enjoy the planning process with us. Her level of professionalism, as well as her ability to make us feel heard and understood, will not be forgotten. We started off with monthly check-ins, which quickly turned to frequent follow ups as we neared our date. She was always quick with responses and never hesitated to step in when needed with vendors. From being a therapist to an overall rockstar, we can’t recommend Tira enough. Forever grateful- Kat & Adam

Tira helped make our vision for an industrial modern, but fall fun themed wedding come to life!
She was extremely organized ans helpful with keeping us on task with our never ending wedding checklist! Tira exhibited the patience of a saint, ensuring our questions and concerns were always met. She ensured even the small details we found important for decor be translated into our florals, ceremony space, and centerpieces.
I was able to enjoy getting ready for the wedding with my bride tribe without the stress of timing and schedules, because she coordinated vendors/transportation etc. flawlessly.
She's a literal Baltimore Wedding Planner Rockstar, and we were so lucky to have her on this journey!!! ♥️

Tira is so patient. She makes sure the vendors are worth it and well informed. She makes sure that you have options and is right there when there a super slight differences. She is a great communicator between you and the vendors and helps make your vision come to light!
When deciding between different packages she breaks the options down to you in a less overwhelming way.

Tira was great! Tira was a huge help and she was a big part of making our wedding day a success! We hired her as day of coordinator, however she was very involved from the start. Even though we found and picked most of our vendors, she was still helpful with providing recommendations/suggestions when we got stuck with the remaining vendor selections. She always checked in on me to make sure I was completing everything on my to-do-list and always provided great advice. She was super encouraging and I felt I could trust her. She was organized, personable, and professional. I would work with her again!

Tira provided us with an excellent quality of service. Her expertise in the business makes it easy to trust the process under her guidance. When my husband and I weren’t sure which vendors to pick for our grooms table chairs; Tira was instrumental in finding a trusted vendor to support our decor for the day. Our wedding day was coordinated with care by an immense professional who’s no stranger to getting the job done. Words can’t begin to express to level of calm we had knowing we were in great hands.
With Love,

Whenever I reached out to our vendors about small details or last-minute changes, the common response was "don't worry, Tira already handled it". Thank you!!

Our wedding planner Tira knew the assignment and she delivered!! From our first consultation to the wedding day she was nothing more than STELLAR. Her professionalism, personality, and patience is one of a kind. We had no clue on how to plan a wedding or what our vision was. Tira took us by the hand and guided us through the process and help us create a beautiful concept for our wedding. She made us feel at ease when times we felt everything was crashing down because of the challenges of Covid and other issues. She treated us like family and made sure she was available if we needed anything. I would call her multiples times a week with my million and one questions and she will always answer or call me back in 5 minutes. Tira is the REAL DEAL and will go above and beyond for you. We call her BOSS LADY because she get things done. On the wedding day her coordination was A+. It was a little chaotic with weather and other issues but she took control and handled it like a true professional. If your looking for a wedding planner I would highly recommend Tira hands down.. Side note* Our guest are still raving about our wedding 😉

We could not have selected a better wedding planner. I didn’t even think we needed a wedding planner, but hiring Tira was one of the best decisions we made. From the very beginning, we felt comfortable with Tira. We were drawn to her positive energy, down-to-earth personality, and knowledge about the wedding industry. Tira really listened to me and my wife and made sure that she understood our wants and our vision for the wedding. She was always respectful of our budget and found excellent options to fit our budget. She also recommended amazing vendors, and we were blown away by everyone Tira suggested. She was very responsive, patient, kind, and organized. She kept track of everything. She knew every important date, every deadline, and every vendor contact. She took charge and solved problems before we knew the problem existed. She took so much of the burden off of our shoulders, which reduced our stress. Our wedding day was beautiful, and Tira put everything together in a way that far surpassed our expectations. In short, Tira was amazing. I would recommend her again and again.

Tira goes above and beyond what she is hired to do to make sure you have the best day of your life. Planning a wedding in the middle of a pandemic was a nightmare full of uncertainties, however Tira did everything in her control to make it as stress free as possible. My original venue had so many restrictions after Covid hit that would have altered the wedding. Tira suggested a few other venues and took me out to see a few options until we found the perfect one that would still allow my vision to come into fruition. She is very well connected with other great vendors that all work together to make the magic happen. After switching venues, two weeks before our wedding the government put restrictions on indoor gatherings that caused us to have to postpone our wedding. How devastating after all the planning. Tira stuck with us, stayed in communication with all of our vendors and advocated on our behalf. When we were finally able to have the wedding 5 months later it was seamless. If there were any hiccups we would have never known. Tira was a complete lifesaver and ensured we had the wedding of our dreams. I can not thank her enough and I can not wait to work with her again. She has become a part of our family. She is the best in the industry!!!

Tira SAVED OUR WEDDING!!! We could not and would not be having this wedding without her. As we all know, weddings are crazy stressful. And with the added stress of COVID-19, I reached my breaking point and was close to the edge. But Tira was quick to swoop in to our rescue, using what seemed to be Super Powers to work her magic. Tira was amazing before the pandemic, but she kicked it into overdrive. Once we told her that we were going to postpone, she dropped everything and went to work. Right away she began calling and emailing all of our vendors to reschedule to make sure they were all available for the new date. She didn’t stop until she reached all of our vendors. Within 1 hour, she had everyone rescheduled for the same day, including the venue. Morale of the story, she gets stuff DONE! But she does it in a personable, kind, supportive, and caring way. Working on a tight budget? No problem! Tira knows vendors and ways to help you stay within your budget. She does an amazing job with all of her events. She handles them all as if they were her own personal events. Anyway, you’ll love her just like we love do! We recommend her services and support over and over again!!

Tira has been phenomenal during this covid pandemic. She constantly checks in and I can definitely tell she really cares about us. Postponing our wedding to 2021 took such a toll on me, but Tira reassured us that our day will be even more special. All of her recommendations for vendors have been great and I am so looking forward to having Tira be there for us on our big day. I highly recommend Tira Lynn Events to any bride who wants to feel loved and special.

Working with Tira and her team on my wedding day and in the months before was great and I full-heartedly recommend her to anyone planning their wedding in the region! Tira went above and beyond to help me plan my wedding from out of state by providing me with multiple suggestions for vendors, prompting me with new tasks and decisions that needed to be made in a timely manner and keeping on top of the numerous vendors. As someone who has not been involved in any weddings nor attended many, Tira did a wonderful job of guiding the planning process in a helpful manner that was never overwhelming. On the wedding day itself, so much had be planned and ironed out that my mom and I were able to just enjoy the day and truly not be concerned about vendors etc. Tira is both kind and helpful. She is extremely knowledgeable about the local wedding scene and can answer any and all concerns you may have leading up to the wedding. My fiance and I had the most wonderful day and it ran so seamlessly because of Tira and her team!

Tira was that person. We doubt anyone else would have been able to put up with our personalities lol but Tira was able to hang in there and make us proud. We made a great team!
