For our January wedding in St. Augustine, we worked with Coastal Coordinating for the "Day of…read moreCoordinating". Leading up to our event, Katy Hurtig, the owner, was our go-to gal. Katy is a genuine soul and it shows that she really loves her work. She assisted in recommending many of the St. Augustine vendors which we selected and she was always prompt with her communication via e-mail, text, and phone calls. We met with her in person to work on developing the timeline of our wedding and the final walk through of the venue with her and our caterer. One of the areas we were most concerned about was the changing of the courtyard from the ceremony to dance floor/high-tops for the reception, which is known as the "Flip". Katy presented several options and eased our mind that no matter what we decided it would be executed smoothly. Our specific day of coordinators were Ashley and Christine who were FANTASTIC. The evening prior to the wedding they led the dress rehearsal and they did a walk-through of the location/decor to plan for the big-day. They were on top of everything: decorations, organizing, keeping to the timeline, and handling issues with ease. I started the wedding day slightly tense about how the day would go. Within no time Ashley and Christine were hard at work in making making magic to ensure everything came together. When we walked down after getting ready, we were blown away by how they brought all our planning to life. Throughout the event they kept the night on pace and were available at a moments notice. The "Flip" was executed quickly for us to take family portraits and then set up the reception. They helped with everything from helping with my insane bustle (17 hooks was way too many!) to handling the power being tripped at the venue twice. I must admit due to their hard work our wedding was absolutely gorgeous and stress free! Listen closely my fellow Orlandoans, Coastal Coordinating not only serves North Florida but they also plan events in the Central Florida area. I would book Katy and her phenomenal team again in a heartbeat!

I opted in for the Day of Coordinator because I had already selected all of my other vendors. I also paid extra to have Coastal Coordinating put out my florals that I created. Chloe was MIA minutes before the ceremony - the venue had to stick me in a random room to avoid being seen by the groom. Chloe or one of her helpers broke one of my pillars (decor) and proceeded to put it in the ceremony instead of informing me or leaving it out - it looked so awful. Half the florals I had arranged for the reception weren't put out despite paying extra for this service - my bridesmaids and I were the ones having to put them out while guests were lining up to enter the space. The owner is VERY unprofessional and never bothered trying to have a conversation with me about my experience. Instead she made up lies as an excuse for providing such poor service. I did not have a single problem with any of my other vendors. Would not recommend Coastal Coordinating.

If you are on the fence about whether or not to hire a wedding planner, JUST DO IT! It's worth…read moreevery cent. We had a great handle on all the details of our wedding as we hired our own vendors a year in advance, but in the end, we really needed a planner who could help us pull everything together in the final days when we needed to focus on other things. Debbie and Laurie, owners of Core Concepts, did an amazing job. We hired them to help us coordinate all the details in the final 30 days leading up to our special day. You can trust that they will be in regular communication during the time that you contract to work with them - they will deliver! All of the details came together perfectly - from the beautiful flowers in our requested colors (white, purple and blue) and table seatings, coordinating with our other vendors and keeping everything on time during the day, to the signage and programs and pipe and drape and uplighting and Gobo OH MY. The setting was just perfect - Core Concepts truly helped transformed the space (which was drab) to make it feel elegant and created an atmosphere that made the entire evening feel special to us and our guests. They were hustling until the very end to ensure all the details were taken care of. They also went the extra mile and delivered our flowers after the wedding festivities to the venue where we were hosting a brunch the next morning -- and that was after a really long day of set up and breakdown. That extra touch was a huge help, and we were very appreciative. So many of our guests told us, with sincerity, that it was the best (and most magical) wedding they have ever attended (!!!), and that was thanks in no small part to the Core Concepts team. We are thrilled. They worked hard to help bring our vision to life and for helping us kick off our next adventure as a married couple. :)

We shouldn't have hesitated for a minute! The help we got from Rachel and Core Events was THE best money we spent for anything in the wedding planning. We met with Rachel a couple times and reviewed our plans for the day. She was AMAZING - helping smooth out final details at the rehearsal, checking our sound system/music selections, and providing suggestions for different ways to handle the various traditional elements. The day of, while my mother and I had our hair and makeup done, she checked in at the reception venue and ensured the cake and flowers were delivered and set up properly and the banquet room was set up according to our specs. She also placed our favors, guest book, and other little personal touches we wanted at the reception. That sorted, she booked it over to our ceremony location and helped distribute programs, herded family members and the wedding party here and there so the photographer could get as many pre-wedding family pics as possible. While we stayed behind for photos, she headed to the reception and helped get our guests started on nibbles and cocktails, even cueing our playlist for each part of the reception. Once we arrived, she announced our arrival and got our first dance music going. All this on a day she wasn't feeling too great! We are SO grateful to have had the help of someone so professional, organized, and reliable. Her help let us just relaxed, visit with family, and enjoy the day rather than running around and checking on vendors, set up and details. I cannot recommend Core Events highly enough to anyone planning a wedding or large scale event where you'd actually like to be able to enjoy the event and your guests.
