“I watched my friends at their daughters’ weddings. They spent the entire time taking care of ‘stuff.’ I was delighted, then, when my daughter told me she was hiring a wedding planner. [Her Consultant] and staff from Urban Affair allowed me to have a great time without a single worry. She checked and rechecked with the photographer, the florist, the caterer and the limo service. When rain forced us inside, [the consultant] took care of it. Plus, her advice in planning the wedding was invaluable. We couldn’t have done it without her.”

“My name is Sarah Marsh and I was married on August 28, 2004. The first thing I will say is that in an event such as a wedding where quite a variety of vendors are used and you can really evaluate which felt “worth the money,” I felt like having [my consultant] was the best money I ever spent.
On the day of the wedding, [my consultant] was on top of everything and was professional and responsible. She prepared a timeline for each of the wedding participants and family members and as a result, the day of the ceremony went smoothly. After the ceremony and during the dinner and reception, I felt extremely confident that [my consultant] would handle any kinks. Neither me, nor my mom had to worry about anything and we were able to participate fully. I always said that my biggest fear about the wedding was not about flowers or music, but whether I would be able to be a part of and enjoy this special day that I had spent so many hours putting together. Because of [my consultant], my fear was unfounded. I had a glorious day.”

“Thank you so much for all of your help and guidance; your careful planning and your day-of coordination (along with Paula--she was amazing!) allowed us to relax and really enjoy the wedding, knowing that all the details were taken care of. Everyone told us that I would be too nervous and exhausted to even enjoy our own wedding day but your presence made it worry free and we had a blast…. I also really appreciate how flexible and unflappable you are; we wanted a somewhat offbeat, half improv ceremony and you worked with us to make it happen. The ceremony had the humor and natural manner that we wanted but still managed to bring in quite a bit of seriousness and reflection on the hard work of marriage and the love and need for support and witnesses. Your guidance during rehearsal gave us a clear structure that allowed those less rehearsed moments to work within. Also, thank you for setting up our private moment with wine upstairs; it was wonderful to have a little time together to reflect. Clearly, I could go on and on; obviously, our guests were very impressed with you--I saw at least one single gal grab your card...”

“Throughout all my interactions with [my consultant], she demonstrated a professional demeanor and possessed a high level of integrity. [My consultant] went the extra mile both before and after the events to make our wedding a memorable and stress free event for everyone involved. In addition,[my consultant] demonstrated a high degree of adaptability and control given the extreme weather conditions we experienced the day of our wedding.
As I mentioned earlier, my experience with [my consultant] was one I will truly cherish and confidently recommend her to anyone, because with her I know you will receive quality work!”

“Having a consultant from An Urban Affair was a very wonderful experience. [My consultant] and her assistant were very professional, knowledgeable, and coordinated the whole wedding day beautifully. My wedding day could not have turned out anymore beautiful as it did. Anyone who is considering a wedding coordinator, should not even think about it. It is very well worth it and [my consultant] is the perfect coordinator to have. Words cannot describe how much I enjoyed my wedding day, and I thank [my consultant] for that. Thanks!!”

“The level of service [my consultant] offered was beyond our expectations. She was professional, very detail oriented, delightful to work with and an invaluable contribution to the success of our wedding day. It was extremely reassuring to know that [my consultant] was attending to all the “details” throughout the day, thus allowing us the opportunity to thoroughly enjoy our wedding day. [My consultant] provided all of the attendants and vendors with detail schedules outlining the logistics of the day. She ensured that all of the vendors delivered their services as contracted and that everything was set-up as we desired.
Having a day-of coordinator is probably the best decision any couple getting married could make. It is with great pleasure and without reservation that we would recommend the services of An Urban Affair to couples preparing for this very exciting time in their lives.”

“[My consultant] was a tremendous help in planning and organizing my event and was always extremely courteous and professional. What impressed me most about [my consultant] though was her organization and attention to detail. She was extremely thorough in the planning and organizing of the event and gave particular attention to making sure all parties involved were aware of their responsibilities. Having [my consultant] and her assistant present at the rehearsal and on the day of the event allowed me to relax and enjoy the moment without having to worry about handling the details. I found the charges for her services to be an excellent value and she was always available to meet my needs. I would whole-heartedly recommend [my consultant] to future brides and wish her much success in the future.”

“There are so many positive things to say about An Urban Affair. We were married this past December in Maui, in choosing a destination wedding we expected more than your typical planning frustration.
[Our consultant] acted as our go-to person for all of our vendors, she ensured that everything was executed flawlessly, I never had to worry about the details. She is articulate, organized, and straightforward. What a relief to have someone with class represent us!
From orchestrating our rehearsal dinner to reviewing the seemingly endless post-wedding bills she handled every aspect with poise, forethought and the professionalism of a well-seasoned veteran. She even made herself available as a resource for all of our questions on proper etiquette, this proved to be invaluable! The individual attention she gave us exceeded our expectations and had our wedding party raving about her attentive and calming nature.
We are thrilled with the way our wedding turned out, it was a dream come true for both of us and we could not have done it without [our consultant]! If you decide to use her I trust that your wedding will go as smooth as ours and you’ll find yourself writing a glowing review for her as well.”

“It is with sincere thanks and gratitude that we write this note. We really didn't think we needed a day of coordinator so we waited until the last minute to decide. What were we thinking?!
From our first meeting until the bride and groom's belonging were moved to their honeymoon suite, your care and attention to detail were evident. We can't imagine not having An Urban Affair handling the details of the day. We didn't have to think about who, what, where, when or how things would happen; you made them happen.
We are worriers and we didn't think we would enjoy the day because of it. On the contrary, we were able to relax with the boys and enjoy a stress-free day. If it weren't for you and your team, we might still be trying to enter the hotel without the groom seeing us (smile).
We are thrilled that we chose An Urban Affair! Our only regret is not deciding sooner! Thanks again!”
