Karla absolutely saved our wedding. There was a complete disaster going on in the background with the caterer falling apart that we and our guests didn't know about at the time, be...cause Karla went out of her way to take over and handle it. Many friends who got married told us their day-of planner "didn't really do much," but we are so lucky we hired Wildly Rooted Weddings, because Karla went above and beyond, from the detailed and sincere conversation on the first day we chatted, to the many meetings and organization docs over the next few months, to her calm and capable performance on the wedding day. She did way more than necessary just to make sure all our complicated plans would be executed smoothly. Other planners we chatted with beforehand said they would do less for more money, and our good friend who works weddings was astonished by how much Karla handled as a day-of planner. We were super excited that she clearly thinks outside the box whenever we wanted to do something unconventional; she clearly has the knowledge to handle traditional wedding aspects, but she rolled with whatever idea we came up with that was outside the norm and enhanced so many of our ideas based on what she's seen over her career. After our wedding, many of our guests told us they had never seen a wedding be so personal and so uniquely dedicated to two peoples' personalities, and Karla helped make our imaginings become reality. My partner and I are both very organized project managers in our work, so we figured we could handle most of the planning ourselves—but people always say that something will go wrong (or not according to plan) at weddings, and it made all the difference to have someone so competent handling all the moving parts so we could focus on all the happy moments. Wildly Rooted Weddings is worth all the money, and we sincerely hope Karla continues to get every dollar she deserves, because she's a hard worker and super smart and just genuine, which is hard to find in a business-driven world, and people like that deserve every success they work so hard for.
