The best investment you can make in your wedding planning is Erica Irwin Weddings. Erica is an exceptional wedding planner, a true professional, and a thoughtful, kind soul. After booking our venue, the NAC, and many vendors on our own, we hired Erica.. We knew we had made the right decision as soon as we started talking to her over Zoom, she’s just that good. Erica has a vast amount of knowledge, experience, and connections in the wedding industry. She was able to tell us things about our venue the NAC that we would have never considered.

Throughout the wedding planning process, Erica was always happy to answer our questions and schedule check ins if needed. As we headed into the month of the wedding, we didn’t feel stressed at all thanks to Erica. She was on top of everything.

On the wedding day, Erica and her team took care of every single detail. This team was such a pleasure to work with and we are forever grateful for them.

Erica saved us from ourselves! Her in-depth knowledge of all things weddings (from venues, to vendors) makes working with Erica so worth while.

Erica saved us from ourselves! If we hadn’t been introduced to Erica, we would have made many, many mistakes that would have cost us a fortune. One example – before we hired Erica, we nearly invited 40 more guests than our venue could realistically hold. Her in-depth knowledge of all things weddings (from venues, to vendors) makes working with Erica so worth while. The vendors she introduces you to are key. I can confidently say our photographer, hair/makeup, DJ, etc were all incredible. I never would have met those vendors if it wasn’t for her. Since our wedding, we’ve heard from many guests who genuinely said our wedding is the best one they’ve been to in years. That’s all because of Erica. Do yourself a favour, and hire her. It will make your day, and the run-up to your day, soooo much more enjoyable. Thank you Erica!!
