My husband was skeptical when I wanted a wedding planner. "You're a planner and so organized, we could save so much money!" Fast forward to the day after our wedding when he said the best thing about our wedding was our planner, Rebecca.
Yes I'm a planner, but I've never planned a wedding and we both work 40+ hours per week. I wanted a wedding planner who was affordable and could work with our schedules. We chose Rebecca because I gave her our budget and she said "that's perfect" where as others had told us we would need double to have a wedding for 200 people (150 by the end of it).
I ended up moving to Alaska and having Rebecca as my go to was clutch. She send me monthly emails and answered any questions I had. I didn't have a great idea of aesthetic or design and it was comforting to know that Rebecca could turn my musings into results.
Wedding expectations did our flowers, centerpieces, designed the details, and provided the majority of our rentals. It was a surprise when I walked into the venue and cried when I saw all the details. My flowers were perfect, simple, and everything I could have dreamed of.
It was wonderful working with Rebecca before the wedding, but day of she was absolute perfection. We didn't have to worry about a single thing. We enjoyed our wedding and Rebecca pulled us away when we needed to cut the cake or have our first dance.
Rebecca exceeded my expectations and changed my husbands view on wedding planners. If you want to enjoy your wedding day stress free, I cannot recommend Wedding Expectations enough.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Rebecca and her team. I had a destination wedding in Park City, Utah earlier this month and Rebecca made the whole planning and execution process easy and fun. We only had about 3 months to plan the event and her "one stop shop" of coordination and planning, floral and rentals made it seriously effortless. Throwing your wedding at a place sight unseen could have been daunting, but I never felt nervous or unsure with Rebecca's guidance. She was able to recommend quality vendors, did all the set up at the venue with decor and floral, and even picked up our cake on the day! I can honestly say that the whole thing wouldn't have been such a great success without her. She is worth every penny and a fantastic value. I'd give her a thousand stars if I could!
Hiring Rebecca and Miranda was the best decision I made for our wedding! They took SO MUCH stress off my shoulders. I was not sure how I could set up the venue, get ready, turn on music, make sure the florist and baker made it, etc... they took care of it all! They went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure everything went off without a hitch. Our wedding was perfect and so much fun for me, my fiance and our families because Wedding Expectations took care of all of the little details. I cannot thank Rebecca and Miranda enough. They were organized, detailed and SO friendly. I would recommend them to anyone!
Rebecca was so so wonderful! Highly recommend! We hired her for day-of-coordination services. She sent email reminders in the months prior to the wedding with short to-do lists. Then a few weeks before the wedding we had a long phone call to discuss all of the details. Rebecca was very thorough and asked good questions in advance. She coordinated with our other vendors as needed and attended the rehearsal to make sure she knew the plan. Wedding day went great, no issues came up that I am aware of, and she handled everything without asking me any questions! The whole day flowed perfectly. Most importantly, Rebecca provided me with all of the last minute help and the peace of mind that I needed. One example - the week before the wedding we needed a sweetheart table and tablecloth that we initially thought another vendor would provide, I freaked out, then emailed Rebecca, and she just handled it. She was always kind, responsive, on top of things, and a pleasure to work with.
