    Samantha was a huge help during the wedding planning and day of! She was always so kind and helped us with any questions we had. I’m thankful we got to book her and have her there on our big day! She helped all day on our actual day from setting up to cleaning up.

    My fiance and I were excited to work with Samantha. She seemed sweet. But a couple months after booking her AND PAYING HER HALF she ghosted us. I haven’t heard from her since October (it’s now late April).

    Unfortunately we had to cut ties with Samantha due to no showing multiple phone meetings without notifying us or messaging afterwards. She also no-showed a meeting that was scheduled with our photographer and did not respond to her calls. We were under the impression she was in communication with photographer and venue, but found out from them they had not been in touch at all. We ultimately decided to hire someone else since we are 2 and a half months from our wedding and are required to have a coordinator.

    As much as I would like to, I cannot leave a positive review. Samantha was not a good communicator. We spent a lot of time reaching out to her instead of the other way around. She was 45 min late on our wedding day and my bridesmaids had to help me with completing decorations. She is very nice but lacks professionalism and initiative. She did not take charge and we had to manage our own wedding. Our wedding was beautiful but it was unfortunate that we had to stay on top of the details because we were not confident in our day of planner.
