The Personal Bridesmaid - Ottawa Wedding Planner | Day Of Coordination & Personal Assistant

Sarah is an absolute dream. When we discussed hiring a day of coordinator for our wedding, ultimately we didn’t want to have to worry about all the (many, many) little details, we wanted to enjoy our day and to be 100% present; Sarah truly made that happen for us. She is professional, supportive and knows the industry inside and out. Sarah came to us highly recommended and she did not disappoint. If you’re planning your wedding get in touch with Sarah, she will take great care of you.

Sarah is amazing and you should hire her. She is so incredible at what she does and she was so instrumental to our wedding day. She was a calm, organized presence with a can do attitude about everything. Even before the wedding she called me to check in when she sensed my stress which helped calm me down. On the day of our wedding she was the energizer bunny running around making sure everyone had what they needed. She carried my train and veil around all day, she cleaned bird poop out of my dress thanks to her incredible emergency kit fully equipped with tide to go! She kept us feed, bringing us drinks and reminding us to eat. She made sure everything was in order, and everything ran so smoothly. My only regret was not booking her to stay longer, and booking her earlier. This woman is incredible! We cannot recommend her enough.Sarah, thank you so so much. We cannot imagine the day without you.

Sarah J is an absolute dream to work with. She made our wedding day so seamless and put so much love and care into making sure it was a special day for us. She was available day or night for anything we needed in the time leading up to our big day. Her calm and collected demeanor helped us navigate any hurdles that came up during planning and during our wedding day. She was there to offer advice, guidance and reassurance on so many things. She absolutely blew us away with all of the little details that she made perfect for our wedding day. She went above and beyond to make our day special. We really don't know what we would have done without her. Hiring Sarah J was one of the best decisions we made! Thank you Sarah J for everything!

Sarah J was incredible. She single handedly ensured that our wedding day was amazing. She fully alleviated our stress and executed our vision flawlessly. She is personable, professional, thoughtful, organized, and friendly. We simply cannot put into words how wonderful she is. We would absolutely recommend Sarah J, and will continue to do so for the years to come.

Sarah J is the one thing you never thought you needed for your big day, but then soon learned you couldn't live without! Having planned and coordinated 100's of weddings in my own career, I knew that it was impossible to take care of each meticulously planned detail myself. And although we had quite a large wedding party, having Sarah J there by my side was the best investment. Sarah J showed up the morning of our wedding armed with her invaluable experience, her calm demeanour and her ability to think quickly on her feet and make decisions with our best interests at heart. She ensured the venue was laid out exactly to my floor plan and vision. She wrangled tardy family members and handled any last minute hurdles, without a leaving behind a trace of stress. Thank you Sarah for everything you did to ensure our special day was picture perfect!

Where do I start.. I can't even express how amazing Sarah was in planning and coordinating our wedding. From the moment we met Sarah we knew we couldn't picture our day without her. With weddings can come a lot of stress and conflict, Sarah jumped in and took over to help alleviate any stress we were dealing with, which was a major help and allowed us to enjoy the wedding planning process. Sarah also made sure she was present at our rehearsal, I had been nervous about queues and making sure everyone knew where they were going and what they were doing, she made it seamless. The day of the wedding, I got to enjoy time with my girls and family before the ceremony, little did I know how many problems had happened behind the scenes, Sarah worked her butt off to make sure my husband and I had no idea, so that we could enjoy our day. I would recommend Sarah to everyone in my life (and already have). You are an absolute dream to work with and you can really tell how much she loves her job. Sarah truly is the bridesmaid you never thought you needed, but the one you are SO lucky to have. Thank you Sarah!!! We love you!!!

Please hire Sarah…it will be the best decision you’ve ever made and money EXTREMELY well spent. Sarah was always on the ball from day one… I can't even express how amazing Sarah was in planning and coordinating our wedding. She is so calm, cool and collected, and always finds a solution to any problem that may arise in planning or on wedding day. She is extremely well organized and such a pleasure to work with. All our vendors were in awe of her and raved about how stellar she was to work with. She helped calm my nerves in the weeks leading up to wedding day, called me to check in, and helped me immensely with a severe case of momzilla. On our wedding day, everything was executed on point, and the evening flowed seamlessly. I was able to enjoy the night without having to worry about anything, because Sarah had taken care of it all. Sarah will go to any length to make sure my husband and I were happy. On the morning of my wedding, my bouquet arrived in very rough shape. Before I even had a chance to tell Sarah I was disappointed with it, she was already on the phone with the florist, requesting that a new bouquet arrive within the hour, and it sure did. The remade bouquet was stunning and Sarah made sure it arrived just in time for pictures. I cannot recommend Sarah enough… she not only is an amazing wedding planner, but an absolutely amazing human being who I now consider a friend. We are so lucky that she chose to help us with our wedding. H and I are forever indebted to you. We love you. Thank you endlessly !!!

My husband and I were married in a lovely ceremony at our cottage and the reception was held in a town nearby. Sarah is the reason that our wedding reception was so magical. From the moment we met her, we knew that we were in capable hands. While we were at the cottage having our ceremony, Sarah was at our reception venue setting up everything for our dinner. She was involved in helping us to choose rental items, provide input on layout and setup, liaising with vendors and i think most importantly, she asked thoughtful questions to help guide us through our marriage preparations and set us on the right course (things we hadn't thought of!). When we met Sarah in person, at our venue a few months before the wedding, we knew she was the right gal for the job. We would highly recommend her, she is intuitive, smart, highly capable and a lovely soul. Thanks Sarah!

Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. After our initial zoom call with Sarah to go over details, we immediately knew that we were in very good hands. Her approach to understanding our vision was so natural and effortless, and we really felt at ease with her looking after all of the arrangements and logistics between our multitude of vendors leading up to our big day. Whatever your wedding needs are, presence at the final dress fitting, picking up flowers, leading your rehearsal, decorating table settings, assisting and guiding guests, Sarah is extremely capable of delivering a seamless wedding ceremony. Her experience, help, and prompt responses throughout this process has been invaluable, we are so lucky to have worked with her on our dream day!

There are no amount of words to describe how amazing Sarah is! She went above and beyond on our wedding day, making sure absolutely every detail was perfect. Any big or small thing that came up, she handled it with grace and made sure our sole purpose was to enjoy every second of our wedding day. When you are booking vendors, make sure she is at the top of your list and everything else will fall into place because you have her. She is quick to respond, knows the wedding world like the back of her hand and is one of the most kind and thoughtful people you’ll ever meet.Thank you Sarah from the bottom of our hearts!
