    Cheers To Two did an outstanding job planning our wedding. We hired them for day-of coordination. Michelle and her team were a joy to work with - prompt, clear communication and always kind even when we were scatterbrained. They worked incredibly hard, taking on each challenge and last-minute request with enthusiasm especially considering the size of our venue. Michelle was assertive when she needed to be, also brought fun energy that kept our planning process feeling celebratory and exciting. On the big day, they coordinated everything seamlessly - even literally running back to our room in record time when we forgot our rings! After our first meeting with Cheers To Two we felt total peace of mind that our wedding was in good hands. The months of planning and the event itself went so smoothly we barely noticed behind-the-scenes logistics so we could be totally in the moment. Michelle and her assistants were present to handle any issue but never interrupted the joy of our special day. I can't overstate how grateful we are for Cheers To Two's outstanding service and highly recommend them to other couples! And lastly - the decor!!! They made our vision come to life GORGEOUSLY - I cried. After so many months imagining what it would look like, Michelle made the dream come to life. Pure magic! Let’s do it again!!!

    Michelle is the ABSOLUTE best. I truly feel like I’ve found a friend for life. That’s the type of person Michelle is. She truly cares and wants the best for the bride and groom, is supportive, patient, kind, and never fails to give encouragement. When it comes to her professionalism, she is very experienced and knowledgeable in event planning, meticulous, honest, organized, and you can see the passion she has for her work. Her work really does speak for itself. She takes the time to get to know you and your vision for the wedding. She’s in constant communication with not only you, but with your vendors so that nothing is missed. She even adds certain details that she thinks will fit into your vision. I stress VERY easily about everything. Days leading up to the wedding were chaotic and a complete mess (last minute cancellations, misunderstandings with the venue, the weather, etc.), and as much as I trusted Michelle, I didn’t trust that I wouldn’t be stressed the day of. But Michelle really goes above and beyond to ensure that the bride is stress-free, won’t lift a finger on the day of the wedding, and that the day will be everything you hoped it would be and more. And it was. To my surprise, I wasn’t stressed at all. That’s the kind of magic Michelle has. She even surprised me with the manyyyy pictures she took and sent the day after. They were so carefully and thoughtfully taken. They were beautiful! I was really hesitant about getting a wedding coordinator because I was a nonprofit event coordinator/manager, so I was ready to be my own wedding coordinator. Granted you cannot compare fundraisers to weddings, but I was ready for this. My husband and I ultimately decided that it was impossible for me to do everything on our special day, so we went with Michelle. I wouldn’t have made it through my wedding without her. I don’t have the words to express the gratitude I feel that she was the person who took care of everything. You won’t regret having Michelle by your side on your wedding day.

    If you are at all on the fence about hiring a day of coordinator for your wedding, I’m here to tell you right now that you need one! My husband and I got married a couple of weeks ago and Cheers to Two provided day of coordination services for my wedding and Michelle did a stellar job. From the start, Michelle worked with me to find a package that fit my needs for my wedding and I appreciated that so much. At our initial meet-up, Michelle was asking me questions that never even crossed my mind. This is the reason you need a coordinator. I consider myself to be a pretty organized person, but there will be things that you don’t think of on your own. Cheers to Two shares an amazing Google spreadsheet with different tabs to ensure we were on the same page throughout the planning process and I loved it!! Michelle professionally communicated with all the vendors in the weeks leading up to the wedding and made sure everything was in order. A few weeks before the wedding, we did a site visit and Michelle brought her tablet, taking notes and asking all the right questions. Aside from being the sweetest person ever, Michelle was incredibly organized throughout the entire process and was amazing about staying in contact with me and reminding me of things when I was going crazy in the weeks leading up to the wedding. When my special day arrived, I felt relaxed knowing that Michelle was there to ensure everything ran smoothly. I knew my wedding was in good hands and that truly made the day so stress-free. Michelle and her assistant did an amazing job. They even resewed a button on one of the groomsmen’s jackets! They were prepared for everything! Genuinely, not a single thing went wrong at my wedding and Michelle played a huge role in that. The decor for our reception was set so beautifully. I absolutely loved it. As the reception was wrapping up, unbeknownst to me, Michelle was quietly gathering all of our decor and belongings and packing them up for us. When I got back to our hotel, I called me mom concerned about whether some items were left behind and she said, “don’t worry, Michelle grabbed all of it.” What a life-saver! Michelle was the real MVP of our wedding. If you are considering hiring her and want to have an amazing, stress-free event, please do. I will be recommending her to everyone I know! Thank you for everything, Michelle!! :)
