Carolyn was our day of coordinator and I couldn't imagine what our day would have been like without her help. Even my parents continue to tell me how amazing she was and how they don't know how we would have done it without her. Carolyn is very friendly and was super responsive in the time leading up to our day. We had one scheduled planning meeting call, but I felt I could email her anytime I had any questions! The day of, she was there every step of the way. She was there at the start to set up all our decor and make sure things were in order. Once I arrived, she was always checking in to see if I needed anything. She was also a life saver when it came to bustling my dress and tensions were high. The end of the night was a blur, but all of our items were packed up perfectly and back in their original boxes. I would recommend Carolyn to anyone looking for a day of coordinator!!
