Handled Our Wedding Details Effortlessly

Shannon was reliable and available for my calls and texts leading up to our wedding. I felt confident that she had a handle on everything on our wedding day, which really gave me peace of mind. She didn't miss a beat! It was a beautiful day for all!

The most responsive and helpful wedding planner and company!

I worked with Shannon for my wedding and from the moment I signed the contract, she was available by text and call whenever I needed her. She was there to bounce ideas off of as well as let me know all of the vendors, design details, and items I needed for the wedding so I didn't miss anything. The month of our wedding I sort of passed the ball off to Shannon and she worked with my vendors to get a timeline together and ensure everything was in place for the wedding day. The week of the wedding we had to deal with the possibility of rain on our wedding day as well (it did rain and they were prepared!). When I called Shannon very worried, she had already taken all the necessary steps to present me with options and it took so much stress off my shoulders. I can't recommend her enough, she was such a calming presence the day of the wedding and everything ran so smoothly, which is a big feat considering it was during covid times and the weather.

The Best Wedding Planner!!

Shannon was the real MVP of the Storey wedding! You MUST book her 😊 She is the most incredible wedding planner and amazing person with the biggest heart. I am grateful to now have her as a friend. She has been through it all with us. She listened to months of tears during rescheduling due to COVID, and she never once showed how stressed she must have been. I am only one of MANY brides she helped re-plan weddings for, and she was so calm as she helped every one of us change our dream. She answered every frantic call, text, and email, listened to every request from our many family members with a smile on her face, and made every detail happen! Shannon was such a light during a very uncertain, stressful time. She always made me feel like our wedding was her top priority, even during what was probably the most difficult time of her event planning and management career (all while taking care of her amazing family through a global pandemic!) Truly a remarkable human being. Her passion, love, and attention to detail showed in every aspect of our wedding. Seven months later, our family and friends are still talking about how beautiful our wedding was. Every moment went off without a hitch. She helped make my intimate, classic wedding vision come to life. The memories are priceless.
To Shannon, thank you for loving and supporting us through our very extended engagement and now through our married life. I’m forever grateful for you!
