I've always loved weddings! I can recall as a teenager when I didn't even have a boyfriend, I daydreamed about what my wedding would be like. I'd purchase bridal magazines and make note of my favorite dresses, cakes and wedding details. So when I finally got engaged, I thought I had it all figured out and could coordinate my entire wedding on my own. I was a DIY bride on a budget so most of the planning and details my fiance and I did together.

With only 2 weeks before our wedding, I realized after all the planning and time we invested, I needed someone I could trust to make it all happen. That's when I hired Vanessa with V3 Events. She was the last vendor we hired but the BEST money spent for our wedding. She coordinated the ceremony/reception setup, all our vendors for the day of, and created a detailed wedding timeline. She also purchased everything we needed for a candy buffet we thought we couldn't afford, but she made it budget friendly for us. On the days leading up to the wedding, she appointed herself the point of contact for all our vendors because she didn't want me to stress out. Vanessa even offered to help us put together our last minute DIY details, and that was beyond what she was contracted to do. She is truly a gem and I can't thank her enough for what she and her assistant did for us. The evening flowed smoothly and I attribute it to Vanessa's hard work and passion for what she does. She is super organized, calm amidst the chaos, and a true friend on your big day. Even my family was impressed with how helpful and endearing she was. If you are looking to hire a wedding coordinator, you should give her a call. I highly recommend her to any bride and I am so grateful to her for making our wedding day more than we could ever ask for.
