Best Decision We Made!!
Could go on for an hour, but here are a few main reasons we loved working with Katy
1) She knows the area: she knows every vendor, venue, and staff member. This means she can come up with recommendations or chat directly with the venue/staff on our behalf. Can't stress how valuable that is if you are not local
2) Shes very organized and fast to respond: we worked using shared google docs. Katy helped us buildout a timeline and to-dos. She kept everything organized enabling us to move through tasks efficiently.
3) Calming presence: throughout the process and especially during the big weekend, Katy ensured everything ran smoothly. She was just so on top of things and able to reassure us (which most couples need at some point)
Pricing is reasonable and they will flex up/down to your needs. If you are getting married in Saranac/Lake Placid, just make the smart call and hire Vanbee
Hire katy!

Katy and her staff are top-notch, you definitely want to have them for your big day!
I had the pleasure of working with the team from VanBee & Co, thus past August in Lake Placid, NY. They made my role an absolute breeze from the beginning to the very end. I can't even explain the WOW factor in the coordination and the overall, look, taste, and feel, that VenBee helped to create. They will help eliminate uncertainty and produce perfection, while smiling the whole time. I look forward to working together again!
