We can't wait to share the details of Marnie and David's wedding with you, but for today, I leave a teaser picture from the super talented Marlin Munoz and Marnie's review of our services.
Marnie's Review:
First of all, I cannot begin to stress how important it is to have a day of coordinator. DIY bride, local, destination, small wedding, big wedding – you’ll be so glad that you did. I had phone interviews with several local wedding event planners; Talia and Lindsay got my wedding, asked the right questions, were fun, professional and affordable. In fact, in planning from afar, Talia’s vendor help may have saved me a few dollars. ... I am having trouble finding the words to describe how grateful and lucky we were to have them.
Talia was my point person and she was always available for me. Shortly after signing the contract, I ran into vendor problems. Talia quickly got me proposals and assured me that it would all work out. Guess what? It did. I was DIY bride and bridal blogaholic with all of these crazy projects “organized” in 18 boxes to be set up at historic venue that doesn’t have tons of weddings and an extremely limited window for set up the day of the wedding. I don’t know how Talia organized and put together every piece of the puzzle but she did it with such grace. Whatever needed to happen, she made it happen. Like a magician. Things would appear from nowhere. I’d forget to do something and it was already done. She came up with a great time line and worked so well with the other vendors. No one was late or out of place.
There was traffic so the reception started pretty late and somehow we stayed on schedule. However that happened, Talia is responsible for allowing us to be in the moment and enjoy the day. From the moment she hugged me on the way into the venue, I never had a care in the world. It was perfect and that is the way I will always remember it (even though I’m sure it was crazy hectic). More important than the timing, the vendors, the tons of calls and emails we exchanged two months prior to the day to the email I received at 2am the night before the wedding was Talia’s personality. She was so warm and welcoming to me, my family and guests. I walked down the aisle alone (it was a pretty long walk too :) Before I took off, I could feel my heel was stuck in my dress. She fixed that too.
There’s more so much more to Sixpence and how hard they worked to make everything look effortless. When I saw her assistants arranging my escort cards while waiting on the stairs alone as the bridal party was walking outside, a calm came over me. There were all my nutty projects and they looked so cute! I have a million moments that I could recount but the indelible impression I am left with is still in awe.
Talia, and the entire Sixpence staff is a-mazing. They were worth every penny.
