“A few months prior to our wedding date, I started to panic about all that needed to be done and feared I had bitten off more than I could chew. I contacted Ayanda, she got back to me right away. I felt immediately at ease after speaking with her.
Ayanda is friendly, incredibly detailed and organized, and a great communicator. She helped us find comfort that nothing was being overlooked. She also helped with a last-minute issue with our venue and stepped in wherever needed. We would never have had a smooth and organized wedding day had Ayanda not been there. One of the BEST decisions we made when it came to our wedding! ”
