    Something Profound Weddings provided us with an extraordinary level of service. Their communication was thorough throughout the planning process. Rebecca uses a portal that allows you to see exactly how much (or how little) planning you have remaining in the process. She adds in any little details that you may have told her, and most helpful, things that you may not have even thought about; Like when to schedule your waxing appointments!! I am truly thankful for Rebecca, our wedding coordinator, as I could not have been so relaxed and calm on our wedding day without her meticulous planning. Rebecca went above and beyond what was expected of her, such as gathering all of our personal items and placing them in the suite at the end of the night when my designated wedding person dropped the ball. I really should have known that upgrading the bar may not be the best idea. LoL. I needed Rebecca in every sense of the word, and she delivered an unparalleled level of service that made our special day truly unforgettable. Thank you so much, Rebecca. We are sending everyone to you!!!! (apologize in advance for anyone that tries to stump the planner :) :) )

    Rebecca is nothing short of incredible! She was a necessity for our wedding planning process and coordination, and we all agreed hiring her was the most valuable choice we made during it. From the very first intro call where we had been speaking to a lot of new vendors, deciding what worked for us, which personalities we matched with, and beginning to understand all that it would take to pull off an incredible event, she made us feel at ease! She is an absolute professional - she keeps things very realistic, but positive, and knows how to work well with many different people in the industry. She knew when she needed to encourage them to follow up with us or something was due on our end, she was always very kind about it. We trusted her as she knew many of the vendors we would be working with and she also came with great recommendations when we weren’t sure on a vendor. She takes comprehensive notes of your conversations so that no idea or thought is forgotten and it makes you feel so valued as a client that she cares so much about your big day. Our families were equally impressed with her professionalism and care for her clients. With the coordination package, we were so much less stressed than other couples we’ve witnessed, since Rebecca handled the majority of communication amongst vendors in the month leading up to the wedding (and even was on top of it prior to taking a much deserved vacation for herself!). We were able to be fully present on our wedding day and thoroughly enjoyed it, which is everything it should be! We cannot recommend her enough and are so happy to follow her now on Instagram where we can see all the difference she’s making in other couples’ big days!

    We were thrilled to have Rebecca from Something Profound Weddings officiate our wedding. From our premarital counseling sessions, we knew she was perceptive, patient, and encouraging. Rebecca brought these same qualities to planning our ceremony. She listened thoughtfully to all our ideas and helped us incorporate them into a ceremony that reflected us as a couple. Rebecca was thorough in thinking through the flow and details of the ceremony to make sure everything came together smoothly and joyfully on our big day. We felt she went above and beyond to understand us and craft a meaningful, personalized ceremony. Rebecca's thoughtful and fun approach made wedding planning a pleasure. We highly recommend her services to other couples looking to make their ceremony a heartfelt reflection of their relationship.

    My husband and I were planning a small elopement and originally thought we would go to the courthouse, say our own vows etc. We are SO happy we reached out to Rebecca for her advice and support in helping us put together the perfect ceremony for us. On our initial call she instantly made us feel comfortable and at ease but still had insightful and thoughtful questions to dig into our relationship. She was able to gather our story and our "why" and crafted the most beautiful ceremony for US. It felt unique and original and it was everything we hoped for. Rebecca is profound at what she does and her calm and caring demeanor is exactly what you want on your wedding day when you are saying "I do!". Don't skip out on having her be a part of your day. THANK YOU!
