Samantha was our wedding planner and she was truly amazing. She took care of all the details and we had little to worry about. This was one of the best decisions we made and made our day a success and as stress-free as possible. We even had a wedding emergency with a missing wedding cake and she went above and beyond to ensure this did not negatively affect our day. I would wholeheartedly recommend her for planning any event.

In the event that Samantha was ever out-of-the-office, the rest of the Wedding expectation team took over and handled everything seamlessly. We also used Wedding Expectations for all our flower arrangements. They were truly gorgeous and exceeded our expectations.

I can honestly say that Rebecca and Megan not only saved our wedding, but turned it into something magical! In hindsight, our only true mistake was waiting until weeks before our big day to contact Wedding Expectations. For months we were stressed and overwhelmed trying to arrange such a large event, something we have no experience doing. Despite the short timeline, they eagerly jumped in and sorted out the mess we had created. I will recommend this team to every couple I know!

They were amazing! Always on time to things, always got things done that they said they would and were asked to do. They were very helpful giving updates every month on what I needed to get done. But they did make me feel like they were pushing me to make certain decisions. It was all up to me. The wedding planner that was assigned to me, Samantha, was very understanding and was always willing to meet me when I needed it.

She always got back to me the same day that I reached out to her. Samantha was very good at calming my stress. On the wedding day it was so nice to have them there because they took care of all the nitty gritty, and all I had to do was enjoy my day. They were constantly asking if I needed anything, they rounded up guests and got them seated so I could do pictures and dance and enjoy myself. They made it so I could just enjoy my wedding day and not be stressed. 100000/10 Highly recommend.

Where do I even begin? Samantha was the absolute best wedding coordinator I could ever ask for! She was so helpful and was there for us every step of the way. She made our wedding day so smooth and also helped a ton before the wedding. There's no way we could have done it without her, she made everything so easy. Highly recommend if you're having a wedding or planning any big event!

Samantha was AMAZING to work with and I am so happy I hired Wedding Expectations to help with my wedding! I choose the coordinator option, three months before my wedding, Samantha and I started emailing regularly. She gave me task-lists to complete each month and answered all my questions promptly. She was flexible and accommodating during my rehearsal and was SO helpful the day of! Knowing that Samantha and her assistant were setting up and in contact with all the vendors was such a blessing and stress relief. I would definitely recommend Wedding Expectations to anyone planning a wedding!

Samantha and Rebecca did such an amazing job with our wedding. We debated on hiring a wedding planner or not since we are usually DIY type of people. But we are so happy we did! We had absolutely no stress the day of the wedding and we were able to fully enjoy our ceremony and reception. They did a phenomenal job at keeping everything on schedule. It was also really helpful that they have rentals available and we utilized their in house floral. I loved my arrangements, they turned out even better than I could have imagined. Overall great experience, no complaints.

We contracted both day-of (really month-of) coordination services as well as flowers from Wedding Expectations. Miranda and her team made the whole day go so smoothly, starting with final coordination with our vendors prior to the event and meeting me at the venue the month before to go over all of the details! Everything went off without a hitch. Rebecca was awesome with the flowers and greenery and was able to deliver my dream design in my budget! You should have no reservations using Wedding Expectations for your event - they are a dream team!
