"Paula and her team are total powerhouses. They took care of our wedding from the initial conversation to the day itself and were painstaking in every detail, leaving no decision unconsidered. We especially appreciated how upfront and transparent our communication was throughout the process. Paula has a truly impressive range of contacts and tremendous local knowledge. This made it possible for us to work through the planning and, by the final weeks, to take a deep breath and focus on the joy of the celebration. All aspects of the wedding felt 'waterproof' because of this attention to detail and amazing execution. Thank you for making this magic possible.
—Lucas T. [Groom]
"A Transcendent Wedding. Paula is incredibly detail oriented in a way that enables married couple and family to focus on the "cherries-on-top". Her instincts are tasteful, understated, and elegant—it's often the little things like signage, or guest arrival that surprise and delight. Highly recommended!

"I wanted to write to thank you for the fantastic job you did organizing Jo and Lucas' wedding this weekend. It was such a wonderful day—we could not have wished for more! The bride and groom are over the moon (and exhausted!). For me, the truly distinctive aspect of the way you work with us, is how much you care. It almost feels to me that you are part of the family and it is one of your loved ones who is getting married. You are (of course) so great at the detail. You have a great rolodex and local knowledge, which is so helpful, particularly for us foreigners! I really enjoyed visiting the command and control center—your office. Your precision and neatness are legendary and your filing system is a work of art in its own right. The wedding planner side of things was great, but what makes you so special is that you put your heart into your work and it really shows. I have enjoyed our interactions so much and now we are sisters! I can't thank you enough.
—Jane D. [Mother of Bride)
