From start to finish this was so deceitful and unorganized. We were traveling with two babies under…read moretwo for my sister in laws wedding. We triple confirmed that we would have two cribs, two car seats, and some type of acknowledgement for my daughters first birthday. Stephanie T. Confirmed via email multiple times to both my husband and we that we were all set. We even paid her directly and up front for the car seats. Upon arrival to Mexico they told us we didn't pay for the car seats yet and we couldn't put our babies in the car until we paid. We showed them email confirmation that we already paid and they still wouldn't budge. They didn't let us use the car seats, pulled them from the car and drove us there as is. I emailed Stephanie who responded immediately and said they can bill her there was a miscommunication and then later responded saying actually we have to pay them directly and she will refund the $80 but we will have to pay $80 for the car seats on the way from the hotel to the airport. ( which by the way there weren't any car seats for that trip) When we finally got to check into our room hours after our arrival there were no cribs. When I reached out to Stephanie she said it's up to us to call the front desk and coordinate that. This was surprising to us because what was the point of going through her at all if we had to do everything?/ I would have organized this prior to getting up to the room when our babies were completely exhausted. They brought up two old pack n plays with no mattresses. The wrapped blankets in sheets as the mattress which is not safe AT ALL. The most disappointing part was that it was my daughters first birthday and Stephanie confirmed that the hotel would definitely do something ( balloons, decorations, a special treat) but she wasn't sure what. The day came and nothing happened so I called the front desk who knew nothing about what I mentioned. They said they'd try to do something and never did. Overall, I'm unsure why we went through this company or used Stephanie because we could have done exactly what she did but way more efficiently. USE OVER THE MOON VACATIONS NEXT TIME

They are hands-down one of the best wedding planning teams in Seattle, and every experience I've had with them has been nothing short of phenomenal.

I've had the incredible honor of working with them on two breathtaking celebrations: -Allen and Maggie's Enchanting Waterfront Wedding at the iconic Edgewater Hotel--a Taylor Swift-inspired celebration that was nothing short of magical. Every detail was meticulously thought out, and the coastal elegance was balanced perfectly with whimsical, personalized touches that made the day truly one-of-a-kind. -Nancy and Brant's Pastel Coastal Nuptials at the gorgeous Semiahmoo Resort--an event so stunning, it was featured in Washington Wedding Day Magazine' The pastel tones, delicate details, and seamless flow of the day were awe-inspiring, and it was clear just how much care and love Ashley and Christina had invested into making the couple's vision come to life. Whenever I partner with It's Your Day Events, I feel an overwhelming sense of *confidence*. They have a knack for anticipating every need, and any hiccup that might arise on the big day is always handled with *grace, poise, and efficiency*. This *peace of mind* is priceless--allowing me to focus on my work while knowing the event will unfold beautifully. Most importantly, it allows the brides and grooms to fully immerse themselves in the joy and magic of their wedding day. If you're looking for planners who are not only passionate about what they do but also deliver *exceptional results* every single time, look no further than It's Your Day Events.

In fact, when he pointed to her, my immediate instinct was to think that she was one of our friends because she waved and looked so friendly. Not only was Sarah kind and responsive throughout the communication process of setting things up for the big surprise, but another plus was the option to pay via credit card online. We are extremely pleased with the output of her work! Creative angles, perfectly timed snapshots of our expressions, and overall, flawless execution! I really appreciate the logistics of it all too. She had to arrive with plenty of time, keep an eye out for us, and really work under pressure! A USB of both color and black and white photos was mailed to us with a personalized handwritten card within 2 weeks, and oh! The preview of a few key photos emailed that very night was an awesome perk! The only part we're bummed out about is that she wasn't available for our wedding day!

The photos pop with superb lighting, excellent backdrops, and the subjects' personalities. Sarah took our engagement and wedding photos. We were impressed during our first meeting with her by her portfolio and genuine kindness. Our engagement shoot was fun. Sarah directed us and always kept an upbeat, positive attitude that really set the tone for the evening. The day of the wedding, Sarah and her assistant Beckie came early to take "getting ready" photos of both parties. Then, we headed to a nearby park to take wedding party photos. Sarah and Beckie continued to keep the energy light and happy throughout the 2 hour shoot before the wedding. The wedding ceremony, reception, family and dance photos are exceptional. Sarah and Beckie captured hundreds of memories, laughs, and moments of joy. They meshed well with the wedding party and felt more like guests than hired photographers. I can't stress enough how wonderful Sarah made the whole experience feel. My husband and I have looked through the library of photos dozens of times and still find hidden gems. Sarah truly has a passion for her work and was dedicated in her effort to preserve this important event. Thank you, Sarah, for all you have done and we hope to run into you in Bellingham!

She far exceeded the help that we expected. Both times I met with her I only gave her literally one day's notice because I was planning from long distance and rarely in town, and she was able to change her plans to meet with me. She asked me tons of questions about logistics and her expertise and advice was undoubtedly what made the day go so smoothly. For all the help she gave me over email and meeting with me beforehand, I ought to have paid her for some planning as well as day-of services. She also ran the rehearsal and called each and every one of my vendors the week before. (I only know this because I was starting to call them and realized it wasn't necessary because people were telling me, "Oh I just spoke with your planner yesterday!") On the day of, she just took care of directing everything. Occasionally she'd have a couple questions for me (probably because I just left a stack of boxes that had things that needed to be set up) but she just made it all happen. She made everything stick to the timeline and did all the stressing out for me, so all I had to do was worry about getting ready and having the most special, wonderful day possible. We were incredibly lucky to have Nancy's help for our wedding, and I would recommend hiring her to absolutely anyone.
