“We fell in love with each other over years but we fell in love with Erica the moment we met her. As two busy professionals, we appreciated leaving our day and its decisions to the greatest professional of them all… Our Erica.”

We fell in love with each other over years but we fell in love with Erica the moment we met her. Her easy-to-get-along-with and charming demeanour put us right at ease. Her social skills are velvety smooth and made us melt. Each meeting we had with her quickly became a get together with a dear friend. We didn’t even notice how our wedding checklist got completed! It was effortless and easy. While we couldn’t always put into words what we wanted or envisioned, Erica somehow had the wisdom and experience to make the images in our heads come to fruition. As two busy professionals, we appreciated leaving our day and its decisions to the greatest professional of them all… Our Erica. Our next task: settling down our separation anxiety by finding a new event for her to plan!

“From my very first meeting with Erica, I knew I would be in good hands.  Our 18-hour wedding day was completed without a single hiccup, which means that all of our memories are full of joy. “

The wedding planning process began almost immediately after our engagement over the Christmas holidays. We wanted to be married within the year so the search was on to find and book some key vendors. We finally chose our wedding date based on who and what was available. We had less than 8 months, but being a new bride-to-be, I was eager and excited. It was a good thing too. Steve was living in the USA so I had to take care of most of the planning on my own. However, within a couple of months of breathing and dreaming all things wedding, I began to lose steam. As I looked over my to-do list, I began to feel overwhelmed. That’s when a friend of mine told me about Erica.

From my very first meeting with Erica, I knew I would be in good hands. Even though there were many things still to do, she provided me with the reassurance I needed time and time again. Erica offered much-needed advice and plenty of ideas while leaving final decisions in our hands. She would come well-prepared to our meetings and always help in areas that we were struggling. Her relationships and experience with vendors made us feel comfortable with any negotiations. And she offers all of this along with a friendly, positive attitude. Our friends and family even made a point of telling us how much they enjoyed interacting with her.

We highly recommend Erica because ultimately we are certain that our wedding was a success because of her involvement. Our 18-hour wedding day was completed without a single hiccup, which means that all of our memories are full of joy.

“Every time we met Erica she reflected openness while at the same time providing valuable feedback even when she did not agree with our approach. This made us feel confident that she was not just some “sales” person interested in agreeing with you at all costs.”

We just wanted to take a few moments to say thank you to Erica who of course helped to plan our wedding this year. She received glowing recommendations from one of our friends so we thought we would take our chances and hire her without even looking for anyone else. It was not a mistake. Every time we met Erica she reflected openness while at the same time providing valuable feedback even when she did not agree with our approach. This made us feel confident that she was not just some “sales” person interested in agreeing with you at all costs. I cannot tell you how important it is to be able to strike that balance between being open to our vision while interjecting when necessary. She was always diplomatic and is obviously very use to dealing with all kinds of personalities. Even my husband who frankly, was not initially thrilled with the idea of a Wedding Planner had to acquiesce to the fact that I was right on this one. He couldn’t stop saying how thankful he was that she was there and how we never could have made it without her assistance. At the end of day, we found a person we both genuinely liked who matched her affability with great skill.

Bravo! Annemarie and Eddie.
