Love the guests? Sure. Love your partner? Of course! Love the event itself? Well. With all the work and stress that goes into the planning, it can seem kind of miraculous to actually let go of the reins and have a good time at your own wedding. But just last month, we did exactly that—and we couldn’t have done it without the help of Aris and Phoebe at B’burg Events. We retained their month-of coordination services, and this was easily, without a doubt, hands-down the best money we spent, bar none. If we didn’t know where to go for something, they had recommendations. If we needed an outside opinion, they had suggestions. From the moment we signed, they sent us a spreadsheet to learn about the various vendors we hired. They checked in with each passing month, gradually ramping up their involvement. When that last month arrived, they already knew our wedding as well as we did. And then it got even better. Once we got to the month, they gracefully, seamlessly took all those ...

By doing so, they kept themselves perfectly informed while also making sure everyone got all the information they needed. Thanks to B’burg, everyone knew where to be, when they needed to be there, and who else would be there at the same time. But there’s more! As tremendous as their service was in the run-up to the wedding, what blew us away—the real secret to our being able to relax and have fun at our wedding—was the work they did for us on the day of. Aris was at our venue all day. She saw to everything. She arranged bud vases. She laid place cards. She set out table numbers. She set up the welcome table, and the temporary tattoos, and the signs on the bar and every single thing was exactly as we had asked, just right, perfect, hundo P. If we had to do that ourselves, or if we had relied on family for it, it would have opened up the door for stress or error in a way that could have cast a pall on our most special day. Instead, it was all done right, with her combination of grace and authority to keep it all running smoothly. It wasn’t just setup, though. She stayed on-site and made sure the whole event stayed on-track. She signaled people’s entrances. She cued the DJ. She ushered guests outside for cocktails and back inside for dinner. I know for certain that there was even more she handled, but she handled it so well that I didn’t even know she was doing it! If you’re still reading this, I hope it’s clear by now: We cannot overstate the strength of our recommendation for B’burg Events. They are so good. You owe it to yourself to work with them.
