Mother of the Groom

I can’t imagine how this wedding would’ve gone without Melissa. Her knowledge of Catalina Island, the vendors, the logistics, and overall what to expect was incredibly valuable. She was organized, flexible, and fun, all at the same time! I have left the experience wishing she could help manage my business and even my home/personal life!

Melissa and her team were wonderful! They are so friendly, easy to work with and will do their very best to make your wedding dreams come true. I can honestly say that my wedding would not have ran as smoothly without them. Speaking with my family, bridal party and vendors I realized that Melissa and her staff were all over the place making sure every wedding detail was accounted for. Furthermore, they were approachable to everyone and were professional in the most stressful times. My husband and I enjoyed every minute with Melissa from planning to execution. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking or even considering a wedding coordinator.

Thanks Melissa!

Only gave 5 Stars cause it won't let me add more. Melissa became our saving grace! A month before our wedding, our original planner had bailed on us. My wife contaced Melissa, who was our assigned "Day Off" planner that was provided by the Maya, and she saw how distressed we were, especially because she was aware of how unprofessional our original planner was!
Melissa came in and went full throttle on making sure our wedding plans were met and even added ideas we didn't even think of! Personally, Melissa was able to help me with a few surprises i wanted to give my wife, like getting a florist to arrange a delivery of a thousand yellow daisies on the morning of the wedding and getting a DJ to help me with a mix for a dance routine performed by me and my groomsmen.
Her staff was espicially helpful on the day off. Elijah (hope I spelled that correctly), was with is to and from the church and venue to make sure that we were on schedule, while Melissa did her magic to aet up the finishing touches for our reception!
I cannot say enough about Melissa, she is the bomb and I would recommend her to any couple who needs the perfect wedding!
We love you, Melissa, you truly are our hero!
