    Tara made our day-of seamless!!! Our wedding couldn’t have been more perfect. She touched based with all of vendors leading up to the big day, so we didn’t have to. She kept us on track in our planning and reminded us of our priorities. With her on our team, we didn’t have to worry about dozens of details that otherwise would have been on our minds, e.g., putting out the guest book and other special items, making sure important objects were saved for us (and not thrown away) at the end of the night. She looked out for us— grabbing water, lipgloss, etc. She was also a big cheerleader! She has a bright smile and was a big source of encouragement. We’re grateful to have had Tara on our team.

    Working with Tara's team for our wedding was really great. We are from out of state and really wanted someone who could help us plan our Philadelphia wedding from afar. Tara was wonderful in handling our vendors and making sure everything went smoothly leading up to our big day. Even with rain changing our plans for our wedding we still had a fantastic day with no big issues coming up (that we were made aware of). Tara's assistants were so generous with their time and assisting us for random things during our getting ready process and photoshoots. Would definitely recommend working with Tara and her team to make your event go smoothly. Our wedding party and officiant also really appreciated the guidance from Tara on our wedding day.
