We were recommended Wed and Prosper by our wedding venue and I am so glad that we were! I cannot even begin to imagine how hard process would have been without Wed and Prosper. My experience started with just some general questions, information..., etc. over a phone call. Once I booked my package, I was assigned my personal planner, Kara Portilla, and we set up an initial meeting. My mom and I met Kara one evening and ended up spending hours getting to know one another, discussing about what I wanted in a planner, my general budget, some vendor recommendations, etc. We immediately felt comfortable around Kara and soooo much less stressed even after one meeting with her! The only thing I had booked was my venue (who were also my photographers) and I had my dress picked out. We had no clue where to begin with so many vendor options in our area for everything else and Kara pointed us in exactly the right direction for EVERYTHING. From hair/makeup and videography to cakes and a getaway car, Kara knew exactly what I would want and who I should work with. She understood my vision for our wedding day better than I understood it myself at times. I always felt comfortable reaching out to her, even if it wasn’t our scheduled phone call day or meeting day. She helped me through some huge planning and personal stresses, as I’m sure most girls have during this time! I could tell throughout the whole planning process that Kara truly loves what she does and that she cared for me as more than just a client. I could not have asked for a better guide and support person from day one of hiring Wed and Prosper until the very end of the wedding night. I never had to worry about anything being done on time or the way I wanted it, because I knew Kara would have it taken care of! It is hard to find someone to completely trust with so many important wedding details, especially when you’re a self-admitted control freak like myself and my mother, but Kara was better than we could’ve imagined. I am very particular when it comes to what I like and what I want - I think I spent most of our first meeting telling Kara about what I don’t want and don’t like, but it turned out that this was the perfect way for her to get to know me. I know that any planner from Wed and Prosper would have been incredible - they are worth their weight in gold! Look no further if you are on the fence about hiring a planner for any amount of support on your big day!
