Valary - where do I begin to explain all the ways that Valary was the most important decision we made in planning our wedding.
We got engaged in March, decided in July that we wanted to get married in Sept and found Valary on Reddit soon after! We had nothing planned - no venue, no vendors, no idea what we were doing.
In less than 10 weeks, and having changed our minds on venue location 3 times (backyard wedding, downtown venue, destination wedding) she pulled off the most incredibly perfect day for us. We went with the full planning service and she really took charge. She found us our venue, many of our vendors, gave us our list of things to do and helped make sure we stayed on track, and supported us every step of the way.
We spoke with a few wedding planners and were hesitant but knew as soon as we spoke with Valary it would be great. We loved how genuine she was, and how comfortable we felt with her. She understood we wanted a real day for us, and she helped us fill it with so many magical moments that were so special. Even my dad mentioned her in his speech that day! She even did our florals and pulled off a beautiful design.
Everything was so perfect we couldn’t have dreamt of a better day. Thank you Valary!! We would highly recommend her to everybody and have already connected her with our friends getting married!!!
Our wedding was absolutely perfect because of Valary and her Vivid & Vogue team. We couldn’t be happier with her services! Valary is organized, asked questions and sought answers to things that didn’t even occur to us, and she handled difficult situations with ease. The wedding was as romantic and personal as we envisioned. Valary enthusiastically supported and ensured that things that were important to us were reflected in our wedding. She offered valuable advice when we had questions or needed another opinion. Her knowledge and experience with floral arrangements and design was very helpful! It was always easy to communicate with Valary via email/text and she was always on time, prepared, and focused during in-person and Skype meetings as we were planning while living in the States.
Our timeline for the day was very thorough and we had no worries. She shared her documents so we were never left in the dark. Her help with the timeline, vendor meetings/drop off, organizing family members/officiant/wedding party/musicians, and organizing packing lists between locations leading up to our wedding day made our lives much less stressful. Valary has a great list of resources. She was able to find candles and holders for us, and able to rent flower podiums for a fair price when a vendor we chose previously fell through last minute. We trusted her completely to design our guest book table, table arrangements, florals, flatlay etc! We highly recommend Vivid & Vogue!

The Best Wedding Planner!
My wife and I knew we were in good hands from our first meeting with Valary. She was well organized and a bounty of knowledge. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming at times, but Valary's enthusiasm and passion for the process made our meetings always something to look forward to. Her familiarity and experience with local vendors and venues made our decisions that much easier. She listened to what we wanted our wedding to be, gave us insightful and and supportive advice, and brought it to life.
We also hired Valary to provide our floral arrangements. This made the planning even easier. Valary has a wonderful eye for this and her execution left us in awe. Our ceremony space and reception were in different locations and she was able to use some arrangements at both locations, transforming them between the two.
Enjoy the Day! This advice was given to us by all our married friends, but with so many moving parts that can be easier said than done. In the months leading up to the wedding Valary was available to answer any questions, big or small, and reassure us when needed. Valary's commitment leading up to the wedding had the day itself running flawlessly. Having her there the day of was the icing on the cake. She was there to handle any request we made of her, usually before we knew we wanted it. My wife and I were able to enjoy our wedding day to its fullest, and we have Valary to thank for that. When planning a wedding, hiring Valary will be one of the easiest decisions to make.
