Where to start! Dumi is truly a top notch event planner. We hired her day of coordination services for our wedding at SF City Hall this past September. Even though it Day of Coordination she was helping us with, Dumi took immense care in the preparation for our wedding day, which started about 6 weeks before. The lead up calls and homework we had really set us up for success on the day-of! That was very much appreciated. Both our photographer and family had nothing but great things to say about her efficiency and how on top of everything she was. We share the same sentiment and are truly so happy we hired her. It was nice to have a second set of eyes on everything, and as the bride, I really trusted her to take care of anything that came up with the same care that I would. We truly cannot recommend Dumi & team more!! read more

A Gordon Event - Dumi helping with our first look :) - Wedding Planning Near Me

Dumi was a perfect month of coordinator for us. She has a system that is clearly well practiced and made the process very simple. She was quick to give advice based on her experience. The weekend and day of. She and her team kept us on schedule and made all the small details disappear. It could not have gone better. read more

Dumi and her team were absolutely amazing! We had our wedding at City Hall with a reception at La Mar and everything turned out so much better than we could have imagined. Dumi made the whole wedding process so easy to navigate with a standout checklist and frequent touch points. The vendors she had in her roster were all fantastic and she even found us deals to help keep our wedding costs down! She is so kind hearted and sweet but she knows how to keep the different vendors (and the rogue family member) in line :) We would easily recommend her to anyone getting married and would give her six stars if we could! read more

If you're even thinking about hiring a wedding planner, stop what you're doing and hire Dumi at A Gordon Event. It will be the best decision you make. We can say with absolute certainty that our wedding would not have been the incredible experience it was without Dumi. As two professionals with demanding jobs and little free time, we were dealing with major decision fatigue. The thought of spreadsheets, vendor calls, and logistics felt overwhelming. All we really knew was that we wanted to celebrate with our loved ones in the Bay Area--where we first met and fell in love over a decade ago--and that we hoped to be surrounded by redwoods, all on a modest budget. With just that information, Dumi immediately got to work and found us the perfect venue. From there, she made every step of the planning process feel light, intentional, and manageable. She curated a small number of excellent choices for each decision, which made everything feel so much less daunting. And when we had strong preferences--like for hair, desserts, or food--she stepped back and gave us the space to take the lead. Dumi is incredibly organized, communicative, and proactive. She kept us on track with regular check-ins and shared invaluable tips throughout the process. When we made a last-minute request for a cinematographer, not only did she find us someone amazing, but she also negotiated a discount. Her network, professionalism, and calm confidence are next-level. Most importantly, our wedding day was magical. We got to be fully present and soak in every moment with our friends and family, because Dumi handled everything behind the scenes. Her attention to detail is truly unparalleled--from the big logistics down to the smallest touches. If you're considering A Gordon Event, look no further. Working with Dumi was one of the best decisions we made in our entire wedding journey. We recommend her 10000%. read more

Dumi is INCREDIBLE! She made our day so beautiful and flawless and stress free! She was so easy to work with, organized, and efficient. I loved working with her and highly recommend her for your next event. read more

Dumi was amazing as our day-of coordinator for our wedding! super attentive to our needs and worries leading up to our wedding. She kept us on-track and solved a lot of logistical problems and so many things we didn't even think of; seating for the wedding ceremony, timing of the music walk-out times for the groom and bride veil adjustment, catering questions, and coordinating with all the vendors on the day of and the days leading up. She masterfully handled the craziness of our two families with an even hand --firm when she needed to be, and relaxed and funny in the brief moments of calm throughout the process. Very detail oriented and organized, fast response times to all of our emails. I cannot stress enough that we could not have pulled this off without Dumi. She is first class. read more

A Gordon Event - Wedding Planning Near Me

Our November wedding would not have been the same without Dumi's help and expertise as our day-of-coordinator. We've corresponded via zoom calls and e-mail starting at a month before our big day. Even though we had most of our planning already done, there were still a lot of pending items and ever-changing details that we had to keep track of. Dumi helped us prioritize and address these things so that we can have a stress-free wedding day. She managed vendor communication and created a timeline that everyone referenced which is really extensive and thorough. She also successfully ran our wedding rehearsal the day before, which our friends and families really appreciated! She made sure everyone knew what they were doing and when. On our wedding day, she executed our vision perfectly. There were no details missed, and all of our guests are happy and impressed! My husband and I were also well taken care of, and we were able to do everything we planned on our big day. Thank you so much Dumi and team for bringing our ideas, wedding spreadsheets, and planning slides to life! I believe that every bride and groom should have a coordinator on their wedding day because the last thing you want to do is stress over DIY details, vendors not knowing what to do, or guests causing any trouble. None of that happened on our wedding day, thankfully, thanks to A Gordon Event. Dumi was that coordinator for us, and we highly recommend her! read more

This is a review for our wonderful day of coordinator, Dumi!! We reached out to Dumi several months before our wedding date and felt at ease when we had our initial consultation with her. Her professionalism and attention to detail were evident during our meetings leading up to the wedding and during the rehearsal, but really shined during our wedding day. Everything ran so smoothly, from the weeks leading up to the wedding, the rehearsal, and throughout the actual wedding day. My partner and I reflected on how much fun and carefree our wedding was, and it was all due to Dumi's wonderful and thoughtful work planning and coordination behind the scenes. She is an excellent communicator and quickly resolved any questions that our multitude of vendors had. Our friends, grooms people, and family felt that she did a wonderful job. I would highly, highly, highly recommend Dumi to be your wedding coordinator and will be recommending her to my friends. Thanks so much Dumi! read more

Dumi and the entire A Gordon Event team were nothing short of magical for our March 2024 wedding. From our first consultation, Dumi's thoroughness and attention to detail left me almost speechless (which is hard do with a Type A bride like myself). You can definitely tell she knows what she's doing when you have no follow up questions! I knew it would take a specific personality to be able to corral our bridal party and I was impressed that this team was able to do so with such ease. Our wedding day went off without any hiccups (or at least none that I knew about) which only further highlights how much hard work was going on behind the scenes. I could go on forever about how grateful my husband and I to the A Gordon Event team, but I will just say that hiring them was the best decision we ever made and our wedding wouldn't have been as smooth without them! read more

Dumi was a dream to work with! I got engaged and set a wedding date that was within 9 months (we wanted to accommodate family schedules, etc). Given that I manage projects all the time at work, I thought it would not be a problem to coordinate my own wedding. Well, I found out very quickly that that was not the case. A few months after setting the wedding date - I started scrambling around to find at the very least a month of coordinator. Dumi was among the first few people that I reached out to and she was definitely the first to respond. We set up an introductory call with her and knew instantly that we wanted to hire her for partial planning services. She is beyond professional, keeps very detailed notes, and clearly knows what she is doing. We had no idea we had to lock down certain vendors ASAP and would have been lost without her. Dumi also has a great portfolio of other wedding vendors that she has worked with, and her recommendations were top notch. I now realize how important it is to have a professional help with your wedding and I cannot recommend Dumi enough. I was completely relaxed the month up to the wedding knowing that I was in good hands. Our day was beautiful and went without a hitch (at least none that I am aware of, which speaks volumes of Dumi and her team!). You will 10000% not regret hiring A Gordon Event for your wedding! read more

Dumi is absolutely AMAZING! Very professional, communicative, knowledgeable and fun to work with. What we love about her is, she was very precise and detail oriented. She is super organized, always fast to respond to any questions we had and had solutions to all our concerns. We could not have made our wedding happen without her help. She and her team really made our lives easy! On our wedding day everything felt incredibly smooth and stress free. It was so nice knowing that if anything came up she would take care of it so we could just enjoy our day. We would recommend her 100%! You would not have to worry about anything because Dumi and her team would be on top of everything to allow you to enjoy your special day. Thank you Dumi! ~Mr. & Mrs. Martinez read more

Do yourself a big favor. Stop your wedding planning/ coordination search and just hire Dumi right now. You will NOT regret it. Dumi was my day-of wedding coordinator for my wedding on 10/15/22 and the day could not have gone more smoothly. I literally would not change a single thing about my wedding day and Dumi and her team are to thank. Dumi was the first to get back to me out of the five coordinators I reached out to and that level of responsiveness and enthusiasm locked me in. Her level of responsiveness and enthusiasm never diminished. She never once left me hanging and she brought great energy to every meeting, the rehearsal, and the day of. What I appreciated most about Dumi is her confidence. Any time I had a question, she let me know what she's found to work best from her experience. This made planning very straightforward for me with very little second guessing. Her confidence kept me in reality and on budget. Her confidence allowed us to have an efficient, effective rehearsal and therefore a super fun rehearsal dinner. Her confidence commanded respect from my vendors. Her confidence never overshadowed my needs or dreams. Her confidence gave me confidence in my choices and in letting go on my big day. If you need any more convincing, I'll tell you that Dumi STOPPED TRAFFIC in the middle of downtown San Francisco so that my photographer could get an epic shot of my husband and I in the street. That sums up Dumi as a wedding coordinator. She ensures that your day is YOUR day and do whatever it takes. I cannot thank Dumi enough for all of her hard work and dedication. I was told by multiple wedding guests that it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. Thank you, Dumi! You are beyond amazing at what you do. read more

If you need someone to handle all the little details for your wedding, Dumi is your person! Dumi thinks of absolutely everything and anything along the way.

Working with A Gordon Event was the best decision! From the very beginning, Dumi knew exactly what we needed to do at every step of the way. She always gave us the creative freedom to explore ideas while ensuring we stayed on track. She went above and beyond in every single interaction. Her connections made everything so much easier. Not having to research and find florists, bakers, DJs, photographers, and wait staff simplified so much of our decision making. I would recommend A Gordon Event to everyone! read more

My wedding was 2/18/23 and it was absolutely PERFECT! WE LOVE DUMI! She went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly! I really appreciated how thorough and responsive she was from the moment I hired her about 6 months out from my wedding. Even though she was hired for day of coordination, she was very helpful and did everything she could to make sure the day went perfectly. Even designing my wedding venue with all my decor on the day before the wedding after our wedding ceremony rehearsal. The whole process went so smooth, we were really in sync and she made it a priority to know my vision exactly! I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator to help me make all my wedding dreams come true. I'm sad the wedding is now over and we can't work together anymore. We definitely recommend Dumi for all your wedding coordination needs, you won't regret it!! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dumi - she was so kind, funny, communicative, a great listener, a lifesaver at many times, and made sure our big day was a complete success. Our wedding would not have been as amazing and perfect without her and Brandin there. She made sure we got to do everything we wanted to make our day special. I have no idea how she can manage to make a 160 person wedding run so smoothly but she made it look easy - it brought me so much peace of mind knowing she was there. Some memorable moments for me are that while I was busy on my wedding morning Dumi made sure everything was in place and reported back to me what was happening/being set up so I never felt out of the loop. Then I realized I forgot silver sharpies for the guest book and out of nowhere she pulls out exactly what we needed from her fanny pack!! She is always one step ahead. Dumi also made sure my pictures were on point and had the idea to throw my veil to make it look like it was blowing in the wind - she literally thinks of everything. She was not only my coordinator but also my bestie for the day. If there is anyone you can trust to bring your vision to life during your wedding, it's Dumi. You would be so lucky to have her by your side!!! read more

If you're thinking of hiring a wedding coordinator, LOOK NO FURTHER. Dumi is everything I could have asked for and more. Having Dumi as our coordinator was the BEST decision my husband and I could have made. From the beginning, Dumi was extremely responsive and professional. We had a zoom call early on in the planning process and Dumi helped me tie up so many loose ends and helped me with questions I wouldn't have even thought to ask my vendors. She completely took the time to read through my contracts and was so meticulous in ensuring all communication among vendors was clear and concise. Dumi attended a venue walkthrough with me and my husband and created the most amazing timeline for the day of my wedding to keep our day running smooth. Two days before my wedding my videographer fell through due to Covid. Dumi was ON IT and helped me find many qualified videographers within my budget literally within hours. She literally came to my rescue and helped me stay calm and stress free. On the day of the wedding, Dumi was so helpful with keeping our wedding party on schedule. She planned our first look so beautifully. She was there to address every need and issue that came up on the day and literally left me stress free and able to enjoy every moment of my wedding day. Dumi was quick to come up with solutions for problems that arose during the day and put out mini fires that I had no idea about. I feel eternally grateful for A Gordon Event for making my wedding day one to remember forever. read more

We had the pleasure of having Dumi and her team as our coordinator for the day. I must admit I was a bit nervous about my vision not being what I imagined due to my own paranoia, but Dumi literally just "managed" it and was able to capture what we wanted. Our wedding day was perfect as it really captured "us." There were a few times where she had to remind me to enjoy the moment, and she really did take care of everything, including making sure our dogs were comfortable, settled, and attended to. I definitely recommend Dumi and A Gordan Event. I was really able to enjoy and experience our wedding day. Hiring Dumi made all the difference, and I'm so appreciative of all her help, professionalism, and partnership. Thank you so much read more

Dumi and her team were enjoyable to work with. She scheduled a few meetings during the month prior to the wedding day to make sure things were in order. She also reminded me of things to do which I otherwise would have forgotten. She was quick to respond both by email and text. On the wedding day, she and her team took care of vendor coordination and decoration set up in the reception with minimal to no input from me, which was a big help. Would recommend Dumi and her team if you need a wedding day coordinator! read more

My wife and I booked Dumi & her team at A Gordon Event to be day-of coordinators for our wedding. Dumi almost immediately reached out to all of our vendors and started establishing a schedule. At first I don't know if we fully appreciated the detail that Dumi puts in to these events, but all of it was incredibly apparent when our wedding day came and she handled absolutely EVERYTHING. My wife and I didn't really rehearse the ceremony or know exactly where to be in the venue for the couple's entrance, the cake cutting, etc. Dumi ushered us through the whole day, handled all kinds of little things like wedding gifts, decorations, making sure the DJ got a dinner plate. Everything. And it all went so smoothly across the board. As someone who is allergic to logistics, Dumi was a godsend. Even towards the end of the night when I tried to help pack things up - she emphatically refused and sent me back on the dance floor. Definitely worth the money to be able to relax on a day like that and know everything is taken care of. Kudos to Dumi & the A Gordon Event team! read more

The pre-mtgs were clear and you were helpful in guiding us to make decisions we hadn't thought about. Rehearsal day was good, we appreciate you coming out and accommodating our schedule and being patient with everyone. Day of-- you and your team were fantastic. You were extremely helpful filling in the gaps with decisions that we hadn't thought about and made executive decisions that made our day go much smoother. I remember you helping art direct the photo session and fixing my jacket-- made me feel like you had my back, which means a lot. Would absolutely recommend Dumi and her team for your wedding. read more

A Gordon Event helped make our wedding day perfect! We planned our wedding from states away and had to trust others to bring the vision together, with Dumi being the most essential piece.

Dumi WAS THE MVP of our wedding! All we had to do was show up and enjoy our wedding day. I never looked at a clock or had to remember what was next on the timeline. Dumi handled it all. I was able to be fully present day of my wedding with my husband and my guests. Where other vendors fell short Dumi stepped in and did other people job behind the scenes! I didn't even know until after. She is able to adjust quickly when things don't go as planned. We were supposed to have live musicians during our Mocktail hour and they didn't show up. So she pivoted and had our DJ set up music for our guest instead. She's a great problem solver. I fully trusted her decision day of if things needed to be changed. She communicated with every vendor when and where they needed to be. Dumi is very well organized. She set up our seating chart, put on our cake topper and so much more (pictures are shown below). She's was a calming presence throughout the day and never seemed stressed. Dumi is great at what she does! Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made to ensure our day ran so perfectly, and it did! read more

In my opinion, Dumi is the definition of a first class professional in the wedding industry. We enlisted A Gordon Event for day of coordination services for our wedding celebration on 5/28. From consultation to wedding day and everything in-between, she sincerely values you and your evolving vision (cause let's be real, changes are inevitable). As a fellow event planner/coordinator in a past life, I knew I needed someone who could be an extension of me. Someone just as meticulous, organized, straightforward, proactive, etc. She was exactly that and more. No one else could have executed our wedding the way Dumi did... she blew us away and went beyond our expectations! Members of our wedding party and guests were constantly raving about her... even days after our celebration! Dumi, thank you for keeping me grounded and allowing me to let go of the reins and be present. Thank you for making this a seamless and valuable experience! For those on the fence, hire Dumi and A Gordon Event. We had complete faith in her and knew that we were in the best hands possible. read more

Dumi from A Gordon Event is exceptional; I highly recommend her to anyone looking for wedding planning purposes that don't want to break the bank. We purchased the Partial Planning package from her, and she tirelessly made sure that our day perfect and stress-free. Her services could have easily costed twice as much somewhere else; I can easily say that I was the least-stressed bride that I know of - I was genuinely relaxed even in the last couple weeks because of Dumi's incredible work. She handled all the major pieces we were scared of - vendor recommendations (including different price points), vendor communications, contract review, scheduling, rehearsal coordination, day-of coordination, and even DIY setup. She also has great extras that we were not counting on, like providing sketches of what the ceremony and reception would look like, and having a nice set of (free!) rentals for things like candles, table numbers, easels for signage, faux greenery, and more. I am SO grateful we had Dumi as our planner, and highly recommend her to everyone - trust in her and you will have an incredible and stress-free wedding! read more

Dumi was the best choice I made on my wedding journey. She is professional, brings a ton of experience to the table, and is extremely detail oriented. She helped me overcome bridal anxieties by removing stressors from my responsibilities and adding them to her own, including helping me make decisions, advising on day-of minutia, and taking over correspondence for me as my big day approached. On top of all this, I always felt that she was genuinely invested in my success, acting as more of a wedding mentor than she ever needed to, but believe me, this was a comfort beyond belief to a stressed-out bride like me. She even brought two helpers to the wedding at no additional cost to me who were also kind, thoughtful, and jovial, flexibly rolling with whatever the day demanded of them. If you need guidance, are looking for a lessened load on your shoulders, and need a thorough professional to coordinate your big day, look no further. Thank you Dumi and crew! read more

A Gordon Event - Wedding Planning Near Me

Dumi took what was suppose to be a small DIY yourself wedding that became a large DIY destination wedding. We contacted her late in the game and she worked her magic to not only bring everything under control but turned out a beautiful wedding and reception. We couldn't ask for more on that special day. Dumi also was able to get us some professional staff such as a DJ, wait staff, etc. at a discount which we were very grateful for. She has a wealth of ideas and information and provided insight into things that we didn't even think about. All in all, it was an amazing experience for us to work with Dumi to make my daughter's wedding truly special. read more

We would recommend her highly. read more

A true lifesaver! We hired Dumi for her Day of Coordination services and she truly delivered. From creating and communicating the day of timeline to our vendors, holding a successful VIRTUAL rehearsal, and keeping our day on time. She made sure our day went off without issue, or rather, whatever little bumps in the road did happen they were solved for where we didn't even notice them. The most impressive part to me was her ability to manage some unruly family members. I considered myself a pretty type A and organized Bride but there was absolutely no way that our wedding day would have been the day that it was without Dumi. If you're on the fence, do it, and take your hands off your wedding the month before and let her handle it... Dumi has it under control.I would recommend her to any bride who asks! read more

Just finished a wedding with the help of Dumi Gordon (and her husband who helped) and from start to finish, she was focused, organized and great to work with. In addition to the planning sessions she had with my daughter, the bride, she was totally hands on and working her magic on the day of the wedding. Emotions run so high at weddings and she stayed on point, finalized decisions and kept everything together. I am delighted with her skills and manner. She is friendly, honest and has great suggestions. I HIGHLY recommend A Gordon Event. Thank you, Dumi!! read more

Look no further for a wedding coordinator, Dumi is nothing short of the best!! She transformed my son's wedding into an incredible celebration! I hired Dumi about 2 months prior to my son's wedding because we were all feeling stressed and overwhelmed. We met on our first zoom meeting and I immediately knew that I wanted to hire her. She was very good about communicating with us throughout the whole pre-wedding process. Dumi is organized, professional and very good at what she does. She thinks of all the little things that we forget about that make for an amazing wedding. Her communication with all the vendors during the whole wedding process took the stress off of us. I am so happy that I found her and I highly recommend her! Thank you Dumi for everything!! read more

It was an absolute pleasure working with Dumi! If you are looking for someone to support coordination for your wedding or other special event, look no further, because Dumi is your BEST option! We booked Dumi's "Day of" coordination services and we could not be happier with her work. From the moment we started working with her, Dumi was very organized, professional, and often gave very helpful feedback/tips for our event based on her prior experience. Dumi led our wedding rehearsal the day before the wedding and was so on top of it! On the day of our event, Dumi made sure everything went off without a hitch and we were actually ahead of schedule for much of our wedding which gave us more time for photos with our guests. From our immediate families, wedding party, and even some of the guest attendees at our wedding, people could not stop praising Dumi and her excellence as a day of coordinator! If we had to do it all over again, we would re-book Dumi for our wedding without hesitation! read more

I cannot imagine my wedding going as it did without Dumi running the show. We had a really low key wedding, and wanted it to feel homey. From my consultation - she made me feel like my ideas were great and could efficiently be executed and I instantly trusted her "get it done" spirit: I did her month of coordination package. For reference - I work a ton, and my job kept me from being able to be so hands on during the month of the wedding since it was my busy season. Dumi truly took everything we had planned and executed it flawlessly, everything was absolutely perfect. She is organized with processes and timelines, accommodating, clear about what she needs to pull off an amazing wedding. What really meant a lot to me was Dumi's empathy and willingness to talk through unknowns with me. I had a lot of "ideas" but it really came together with her subject matter expertise and vision. I'm so thankful for choosing her as my coordinator. She allowed me to have my most perfect day with no issues whatsoever. I'd recommend her to anyone who wants to have a picture perfect day, and allowing you to sit back and actually enjoy your celebration. Dumi, thank you!! We couldn't have done it without you. read more

A Gordon Event - Wedding Planning Near Me

THE best decision I made during my wedding planning process was that I hired Dumi. She is literally the best friend and best support a bride and groom can ever ask for! Our wedding day happened to fall within the biggest 10 day storm in CA in 150 years (no joke), our floor plans had to be changed multiple times 2 days prior to the event due to the storm, and Dumi stuck by us the whole time. She attended last minute phone calls with the venue, she came up with solutions to still make our vision come true, and she even helped us with negotiating for a compensation from the venue due to the last minute stress and changes that we had to endure. On wedding day, we couldn't have asked for a better support, a better day, better flow, and a better person to be in charge. We did not feel rushed despite of our packed schedule, nor did we have any delays. Our guests have mentioned to us multiple times that they loved how everything just flew through smoothly, and I would give majority of the credit to Dumi. I DIY all of my decorations as I am not a bride who likes to spend a lot of money on decorations and floral. I gave her pictures for inspirations, the decorations themselves, and I let her run with them. They turned out looking amazing, even better than what I could have come up with! Long story short, Dumi far exceeded our expectations, she is everything you want to have in a wedding planner/day of coordinator. We could not have asked for a more perfect day and perfect memories, and we've gotta say, a lot of the credit goes to Dumi! read more

Dumi was an absolute dream to work with. We were in search of a day-of-coordinator to help in the last month of our wedding planning to create a timeline and to plan all of the small elements of our wedding. Dumi is incredibly detail oriented and is so knowledgeable that she was able to plan and anticipate many aspects of our wedding during our meetings that we wouldn't have known to address before the big day. I knew we were in good hands, and thanks to Dumi, I had very little to stress about the day of our wedding! read more

Dumi was great! She was very detail oriented with the planning part and was very involved in helping out the vendors when they needed it. She is several people in one! My mother was very impressed with her services. Well worth having a planner like her. read more

Where to begin? Dumi is an absolute gem. We hired her for day-of wedding coordination, and she was an integral part of the success of our big day-- and leading up to it. Her entire preparation process is clear and thorough, so you can be confident going into your wedding knowing that you're in good hands. Then, on the day-of, she handled alllllll the details, no matter how big or how small, to ensure my now-husband and I had a day we'll remember fondly for the rest of our lives. There were even several wedding guests who came up to me raving about how great Dumi was and asking me where I found her :) Overall, with a rating of a million stars, I would highly recommend a Gordon Event to anyone and everyone looking to have a true partner for your biggest celebrations. Cheers! read more

Dumi is an angel on earth and a true miracle worker! Hiring Dumi was the ABSOLUTE BEST DECISION I made in my wedding planning! I had a small elopement planned and hired her sort of later in my planning just because I wanted the day to be relaxed and run smoothly. This turned out to be the best money I spent in the whole wedding process - On the morning of the event, my HMUA (who i had done a trial with and vetted and paid in advance) no showed - then called 45 min late and said she couldn't make it and forgot to let me know or find a replacement - but offered to still come --- Two hours late! I was absolutely beside myself - Dumi went into action and SAVED THE DAY - She made the executive decision that we could not wait 2 hours - and she found a replacement HMUA that put us only 1 hour behind schedule !who was actually cheaper than my original HMUA (and actually did a better job!). She talked me through getting a refund. Needless to say the day was thrown off a bit and I was very stressed, but she stayed by my side the whole time, calmed me down as things were getting nuts, and made the whole ceremony go off and still be beautiful! She thinks of absolutely everything - and she was great moral support during the day also because I was inside feeling devastated that the relaxing beautiful day I had planned for so long had sort of become chaos because of my floozy HMUA. I will be eternally grateful to her for her help on our wedding day. If you are thinking about hiring her, DO IT - it will be the best money you spend on your wedding day!. read more

If you are hesitating to hire Dumi, I would say stop hesitating and just hire her. Dumi is the best. She is very organized and thinks of everything. Details that you didn't think of, she has. If you don't know how a certain detail in the wedding could be done, she gives you options. We had a small wedding and our reception was us playing board games with our guests. When I told Dumi our plans, she didn't even bat an eye at our non-traditional approach to our wedding. Other day-of-coordinators were a little bit more judgmental about what we wanted and there is no worse feeling than feeling like that idea you have for you wedding is silly. With Dumi, there was no judgement. She just asks very thoughtful questions to make sure that what you are thinking about becomes a reality. And Dumi delivered. I am a person with high anxiety but with Dumi, my wedding was very stress free. She is so trustworthy and a great advocate for the couple. If a problem does arise during the wedding, she will let you know but also tell you how she handled the problem just so that you are not surprised by any changes that may have happened while you were getting ready. Her problem solving skills are top notch and I was thoroughly impressed by her. I have zero regrets hiring A Gordon Event and I am so appreciative to her and her team. read more
