Find a Wedding Planner in Plainedge

If you are going to have one takeaway from my review, PLEASE listen to me when I say The Wedding Connection was the BEST thing to happen to me for my wedding. I actually won a free day of coordinator through their instagram contest and was immediately welcomed by Gab. I met with Gab a few times over the phone in the beginning to catch her up about my wedding plans and about 3 months prior to my wedding she introduced me to Jess and Jackie, who would be my 2 day of coordinators. After that, I had a groupchat with the 3 of them that we would text almost daily, we also would facetime to go over all the details and they created a detailed timeline for my day. They also reached out to all my vendors on my behalf the week of the wedding to make sure everything was confirmed and in place. When there was a delay with my signage the week of the wedding, Gab volunteered to pick it up for me and bring it to my venue because I didn’t have the time to. Jess and Jackie are complete angels and were life savers on the day of my wedding. For reference, I am a type A bride, planned everything out, am extremely organized and didn’t think I would need a day of coordinator, but was lucky enough to win them because let me tell you… YOU NEED ONE. Jess and Jackie showed up for my day while we were getting ready at the hotel and immediately took control of everything. You don’t realize how many silly things will happen the day of that you don’t account for or don’t realize will take time and attention. For example, when all 8 groomsmen, plus 2 dads and the Groom were tasked with folding their pocket squares, Jess and Jackie were there to do it (which also included cutting a napkin to make a makeshift pocket square because one was forgotten). They took control of being the liaison with all my vendors that day, like making sure the photographers got every shot on my photo shot list and knew all the important family members by name and made sure our bridal party was always ready and in the right place at the right time. They were basically my bodyguard throughout my wedding and made sure we were running on time and that everything I had told them in advance that I wanted to do, was getting done and that everything was in the right place. There were seriously so many moments that I said to myself that day, “Thank god I have Jess and Jackie.” I would have been so much more stressed and overwhelmed that day if I didn’t have them and I can’t thank them enough for putting their heart and souls into my wedding day.
