Sarah was fantastic!!! She always responded quickly, stayed well within my budget, gave me great suggestions for flower choices and even helped all the men put on their boutonnieres!! My flowers were absolutely stunning - I got compliments on them throughout the evening and they look just as beautiful in my pictures! I would highly recommend her to anyone!! |

We (the bride {my daughter}, and myself) decided that we wanted to have a wedding coordinator for the day of the wedding. Sarah went beyond the call of duty. We met with her three weeks before the wedding and went over everything that had been planned along with what needed to still be completed. She emailed us with a to do list for us and for herself. As we responded to this list she would update it. She was always responsive to emails and phone calls. We were always able to communicate with her. She did all the functions of a wedding coordinator as if she had coordinated the whole wedding. The weekend of the wedding which was outdoors was the heat wave in New York. Janna, the bride :), called Sarah about buying fans for the guests. Sarah bought the fans even though that was not part of her job deion. We felt secure knowing that everything that had been planned for was going to be done. The wedding was wonderful and a good part of that was Sarah. Without hesitation I would recommend Sarah as your wedding coordinator for the entire wedding or for the day of. Leah Davidson |

Our flowers were stunning and the color scheme was exactly what we wanted. The decor set the tone and really made the wedding beautiful. We couldn't have been happier with Sarah. We will recommend her to any of our friends who become engaged. |

Sarah is amazing. She was extremely instrumental in helping me plan my wedding in less than three months. From the moment we first spoke, Sarah provided me with useful suggestions and recommendations that made my life easier and my wedding that much better. I can't imagine planning a wedding without her. |

Hiring Sarah at NY Engagements was one of the best decisions we made for the wedding. She is such a creative person - although I had ideas for how I wanted the wedding to look, she brought to the table numerous suggestions that made things even better and more detailed. Sarah was always super prepared and on time for our meetings. Countless guests commented how beautiful the venue looked. The best part of all was, with her help, my family and friends never had to worry about a thing on wedding day. Sarah and her team really pulled things together smoothly, efficiently, and perfectly! She also is extremely reasonably priced. I highly recommend her services. |

My maid of honor/twin sister "gifted" me Sarah's services as a day of coordinator for my July 7th wedding. I had already retained most of my vendors but Sarah did provide some assistance with locating a good hair/makeup person and with finding a limo company.
However, Sarah's primary role was to serve as my insurance policy on the big day. I planned and paid for everything on my own and knowing my worry wart tendencies my sister wanted me to focus on enjoying the day.
Sarah met with me a few months before and reviewed my vendor contracts, prepared a comprehensive list of "to dos" -(-many of which, despite my incredibly thorough research and planning I hadn't thought of) and provided strategic suggestions for how to make the day flow smoothly. She also gave me some useful templates including seating chart layouts and a day of contact sheet
Days before the wedding she contacted all my vendors and confirmed that they were all a-go and knew where to be and when and how to get there. The day before the wedding she attended the rehearsal, took my programs, amenity basket and favors as well as the payments to distribute to my vendors who needed to be paid on the day of.
On the actual day she made sure everything was set up the way it was supposed to be, including distributing flowers to the wedding party, ensuring the readers were seated in locations so they could quickly access the lecturn, directing guests from the church to the reception venue, gathering everyone for photos (which can be quite challenging with a large family), ensuring the band performed in accord with my play list and generally making sure I was blissfully ignorant to any hiccups. At the end of the night (which can be chaotic) she gathered everything and made sure I had all my stuff--including my veil which I had mislaid at some point in the evening and assisting a guest in locating their camera.
In sum she was incredibly organized, professional and very diligent. I worked with very well known, high end vendors and the chances of anything going awry was probably very low, but knowing Sarah was there just in case something did not go according to plan, allowed me to get much needed pre-wedding sleep. My wedding went off with out a hitch and I do believe that was due in part thanks to Sarah. |

Sarah was attentive and caring. She was also very well educated and had great ideas. She fit right in on our big day and kept things running smoothly so that our immediate family can be guests at our own wedding rather than bothered with the flow and details. I highly recommend her. She was just what we needed so that we could enjoy our day - stress free. |

Sarah was worth her weight in gold! She stayed within my budget, but delivered a Class A event that my family and I were proud of. She also saved the day when the venue accidentally threw away my flowers; Sarah had fresh long-stem white roses delivered to the site within a very short time and the place looked amazing. She was there to hold my hand, she listened to me and did exactly what I wanted. She was great in handling the family drama (read mom-plays-bride-for-the-day!) and she was also very helpful after the whole thing was over in helping me deal with a photographer who failed to deliver the photos on time. I'm certain she saved me more money than I spent on her and it was well worth it. I enjoyed my day with a peace of mind, knowing Sarah was there to take care of everything. Thanks, Sarah! |
