There is nothing more important to us than our clients.  We strive to make our client’s happy and it warms our hearts when we receive an un-requested testimonial.

This one is special because it says so much.  I wanted to share it with you.

Lisa Nelson has the calm presence of a therapist and the organization of a NASA launch team.  Her very reasonable fee was the best money I spent on my daughter’s wedding.

I was initially reluctant to engage a “day of coordinator,” believing myself to be a well-organized person who could accomplish the same thing.  However, from the moment I decided to hire Lisa, I realized how much more smoothly everything would run and how liberated I would be from the pressures of directing things on the day of the wedding.  With Lisa coordinating, every member of the wedding party was fully able to be present in the moment, and not looking at their watch or giving orders.  Also, Lisa brought a wealth of experience that I lacked.  She ensured that details I had not even thought of were covered.  Her timeline brought order and calm to a very packed day by allowing adequate time for everything.

When difficulties and misunderstandings arose with our venue in the final two weeks, Lisa was an invaluable consigliere and go-between.  I always knew she was on our side and would do everything she could to produce, in every detail, the wedding we envisioned.

Late in the process, we worried that we would need a replacement for our officiant.  Lisa’s familiarity with clergy to provide interfaith weddings enabled us to relax in the knowledge that a back-up plan would be found if needed.  (It wasn’t.)  Three days before the wedding, we feared we would need a rental chuppah to replace the hand-crafted one the father of the bride had built. Once again, Lisa calmly devised a Plan B, which, happily, we need not need.

Although the service we contracted for is called “day of coordination,” Lisa provided so much more than that.  In addition to directing the rehearsal with a gentle touch, responding immediately to scores of emails, interfacing smoothly with other vendors, devising a detailed timeline with room to breathe, and bringing breakfast to the wedding party, Lisa came to a dry-run at our home to learn how to set up our chuppah and brought her characteristic calm to the situation when unexpected problems arose.

Lisa provides a fabulous service in the most professional way possible.  Her calm, low-key personality spreads serenity at a time of stress.  I cannot recommend her services highly enough.

Here is a lovely thank you note from a Bride! Both the Bride and Groom were busy with their “worldly” passions and did not have the time to plan their wedding. I helped them design and plan their lovely affair.

Dear Lisa,

Just to say a big and warm THANK YOU for the hard work you put into
planning our wedding. You were marvelous and the wedding turned out to
be exactly as we wanted. I was so pleased.
