I was thrilled with everything from start to finish. I do not have social media even though this was Barbie's main way of sharing photos, she always remembered to text me updates. She was thorough and paid attention to detail. She was also very accommodating with everything.
Barbie's pricing was super affordable and I was very excited to work with her for day of coordinating for our small wedding with about 40 people at our home. As planned, we handled rentals, decor, tables & chairs set up and I did my own florals, got the cake ready, and had all the tables set before Barbie arrived. So we thought this would be a fairly easy event for a planner. Unfortunately our timeline was thrown due to circumstances beyond anyone's control and things seemed to get out of hand at that point. The photographer was not alerted when things did finally start and I only just found out that as a result, we have no photos of my daughters and son in law walking up the aisle. It was also not caught on video or by any guests, so I'm extremely disappointed and have no idea what it looked like and I have no idea if the procession was followed. I have no idea where my daughters, son in law and mom entered the room from? I thought they would've been with me. I didn't even know when the ceremony was starting. I thought the whole point of having a coordinator was to make sure this process (especially this), would go smoothly. We spent many emails back and forth about the lineup, so I'm extremely disappointed that this didn't work out. I was also recently informed by two different people that they were treated rudely. We also had a camper parked in the backyard, (which we welcomed, but it was supposed to be kept out of sight for photos), I thought I had communicated that to Barbie, but it's possible I did not. It's very far back, but shows in many of the photos. I have no idea what our appetizers/charcuterie table looked like or how it was. Although I requested that someone bring a plate to my fiancee, no one brought a plate for me. Water was not put in the water pitchers on the tables. Champagne was not opened when we had our first toast. The decorative antique plates were removed while we got up to go to the buffet. (Which we never discussed, I was surprised when we returned to our seats and they were gone.) Barbie arranged the cupcakes nicely, but despite having our extensive antique dish collection at hand, put the macarons out in the plastic container they came in. These are small details I hoped having a coordinator would relieve me from thinking about and I didn't want to burden family/friends with. I know she had a lot of hats to wear that day and it was especially stressful when our timeline ran unforseenably late, and the music playlist had issues that weren't her fault, but overall we're disappointed in these results. The good: Barbie arrived early, got acquainted with our house, and set up the coffee makers and punch fountain. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and it was a beautiful day of celebration. Despite our timing being off by over an hour, Barbie kept the party going while people waited and we rearranged the hors d'oeuvres schedule and managed to have things back on track by the end of the ceremony. Barbie arranged my bouquet for me and it was very pretty. She showed the caterer where to set up and cleared the dishes from the tables after dinner and washed any dishes that were there until she left. (Although most of the dishes were disposable.)
Bashes by Barbie coordinated (Satin Slipper’s package), decorated and flowered our wedding. We couldn’t recommend her enough. She was so on top of everything, transparent with us on every detail, and there were a lot of details. She went out of her way to find the right color sashes, the perfect arrangements we wanted for the flowers, and everything she brought to the table was high quality. She had great ideas from her experience, she met our energy as we planned, and on the day of she helped us immensely! She kept everything on track, did a good job staying connected with us, and the behind the scenes hiccups that were out of our control stayed behind the scenes thanks to her hard work. If you’re reading these reviews undecided – we highly recommend calling Barbie and scheduling a meeting. We’re really happy we did, she is amazing, and if we could do it all again it would be with Barbie a hundred times over. Honestly, we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and none of it would’ve been possible without her.
Barbie is kind, organized, and dedicated to her job! Although we ultimately decided to elope, and not move forward with full wedding planning, we still wanted to leave a review for Barbie because she was professional, responsive and kind during our initial planning process.
