Let me tell you, I was able to stop stressing/thinking about my wedding the Wednesday before my Saturday wedding and its thanks to DMS. Candice from DMS was such a help and great person to bounce ideas off of throughout the whole process. We really appreciated her experience especially after dealing with a postponed wedding and a venue cancellation, Candice help us work through. And the BIG help comes in those last weeks up til the day and Candice was behind the scenes making sure we had the perfect day. There is not a single thing I would change about the day and its thanks to the diligence and carrying out of my vision from Candice and the DMS team. Thank you so much for being there!

Carla is an angel from above. I know this may sound dramatic but planning a wedding is incredibly stressful and Carla was the one who made it run smoothly. Carla, my month of coordinator, was in contract with me for over a year discussing thoughts and contingency plans while planning during a pandemic.The day of my wedding she took care of everything- including running across a field to grab us from sunset pictures so we could do our entrance. There is not problem too big for her or something she has not seen before. She is also the loveliest person. I would recommend Carla and Details Made Simple to anyone.I know it is hard to tell which reviews are honest and which are fake why trying to pick a vendor. Go look at my wedding May 1, 2021 at Liberty House and tell me that is not the most beautiful wedding youve ever seen!

Being a Bridal Makeup Artist, I cannot stress enough to brides the importance of hiring a professional Day of Coordinator (whos independent of your wedding venue) to run the show and help to execute your vision on your wedding day so you are worry-free! Carla and her team give you just that! A detailed, worry free experience! Their offerings are clear and straightforward, yet they are accessible and easy to chat with, this is an important aspect for brides in particular! Youve done the bulk of your own planning and now need someone to help bring it all together? Thats not a job for your inexperienced friend or family member. Hire a pro. Hire Details Made Simple.

I had the pleasure of working with Amy at DMS and I can not express how AMAZING she was. Not only was she the most reliable and kind person BUT an absolute pleasure to be around and work with. She had ideas and suggestions that were unique. She made sure everything went smoothly and most important, made sure my vision came to life. I felt at ease and calm knowing she was there to oversea. Look no further and HIRE AMY! You will thank me later! I will truly miss working with her, I feel like we have become friends! AMY, THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY DREAMS COME ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am ASTOUNDED by how incredibly organized, helpful, and calm this team is. Every single team member made me feel like I was their main priority and that nothing I needed was too difficult. They make sure you have the most memorable day. If I could give more than five stars, I would!

Once engaged my husband, then fiance suggested we should get wedding planner or at least a day of coordinator...and it was the best decision we could have ever made while planning our wedding. Candice was our coordinator and she was amazing! She kept me focused, calm, and sane during this whole process. From finding the perfect venue to finding a florist, she was TOTALLY ORGANIZED AND KNOWLEDGEABLE! She was always there for me and checked in on me frequently to make sure I was OK and that things were going to plan, and if not she would step right up to make it right. Because of her our wedding day went off without a hitch! Thank you Details Made Simple, but most importantly thank you Candice, you are the best!

We were paired with Jess Z! She was GREAT! Beautiful person inside and out! She was prompt with emails and texts, very detailed with answers and information! She was great with recommending bakers, venues, caterers, etc! I dont know what we would have done if she was there with us the whole ride planning a wedding! More importantly what we would have done if she wasnt present at the wedding! It wasnt cheap but definitely worth the money!!!! Makes your life less stressful, great help from a professional, it was worth it all!!!!

Kim from Details Made Simple went above and beyond in every way. At first we were hesitant to get a day of coordinator and tried very hard to make our wedding more affordable in any way we could. I can say without a doubt that Kim was completely invaluable. She was organized, decisive, honest, proactive, kind, fun, and prepared. Our wedding and the entire day would have been lesser without her. We’re proud to have worked with her and will be recommending her to all our friends and family who are planning their weddings.

Dont Call it a Dream, Call it a PlanMy fiancee is very much the dreamer(Graphic Designer) and had lots of aspirations and ideas about how our wedding day would work out. I, being the computer analyst, just saw everything that could go wrong. Without having any idea how to pull off the wedding of her dreams I started searching for Coordinators. After seeing the prices, I had just about given up until I found Details Made Simple. These ladies offered several reasonably priced planning packages that helped guide engaged couples through some of the madness. Once my fiancee talked to Candice, she was convinced this is just what we needed. We opted for an enhanced version of the Peace of Mind package that offered full Day of Coordinating services plus some planning coordination leading up to the wedding day. Through out the process Candice was awesome and kept us on track AND on budget. Our wedding day turned out amazing and Im not sure how we would have done it on our own. Thanks to Candice and rest of Details Made Simple.

Carla was our day of coordinator but to be honest she was more than that. We booked her in February 2016 for our September wedding. From the day we booked, she did monthly check ins to see how things were going and what she could assist with. When time got closer, she was checking in every week. She also did a final confirmation with our vendors. She was always willing to lend a hand and her guidance. She came with me to our final walk through and knew the right questions to ask the venue. She truly made my vision come to life! She never felt like just a day of coordinator, she felt like more than that. She was someone by my side throughout the process and on the day of was very quick and efficient and thought on her feet! Our venue even agreed she was the best day of coordinator they have dealt with. Carla thank you so much for my making our wedding the day of our dreams!

I mainly hired a day-of wedding coordinator to figure out the timeline, and to make sure that I wasnt the one having to tell everyone where to go and when. April ended up doing SO much more, and handling much more than just the day of. My husband Jeff and I were married this past Saturday. April was in touch consistently from the time I hired her last summer. She talked me down off many ledges, and listened to me vent when I needed to! It was wonderful to know that the timeline was set, and that all the vendors were confirmed. The day of the wedding, everyone commented on how calm I was. Thats because April took care of EVERYTHING, even things I wouldnt have ever thought of, and didnt know I needed. She even helped remind the pastor how the ceremony should go! I would highly recommend Details Made Simple if you want to truly enjoy your wedding day. We certainly did, and cant thank April enough!!

Carla Friday is a life saver! Im pretty sure our wedding would have been a disaster without her.Our venue went under new ownership, so that caused massive anxiety. She kept us calm through the changes. She constantly kept in contact with the new owners to ensure our day was successful.She was unnoticed by most guests. She made sure our ceremony was beautiful - paces timed out perfectly, entrances and exits beautiful, and made sure opportune photos were taken. She fixed a florist mistake and made a boutonniere in a couple of minutes with flowers from our altar piece. She made special arrangements for a guest with Celiac Disease so the guest could still enjoy the night. She set up all of our decorations at the venue and made sure they looked amazing!And Im sure there are a ton of other things that she did but I was kept unaware of these issues. Which is great, but now I cant brag about how amazing she is!I am so so thankful for everything Carla did for us!!And my husband says shes pretty cool.

Cindy & Kevin - 10.12.13Though everyone dreams of a perfect wedding it is almost impossible, as little things can and will go wrong in the days leading up to and on you wedding.Carla Friday was the reason all those little things didnt affect my special day and it all seemingly went without a hitch. She replied to all hour of the day emails and phone calls in a timely manner with a can-do spirit resulting in positive outcomes. She handled the minutiae and the significant details with equal importance ensuring my day go smoothly.She was like my guardian angel on a day that I needed it the most. I honestly don’t want to imagine my wedding day without her.

Wow, plenty new! Worked there more than several years ago. SHIRLEY was the marerdi at the time. It was great then as it is today. The waiters and waitresses were outstanding. Mr. D. would not have it any other way. Thats where I learned to fold m ed first fancy napkin. Is it still owned by the Demetrius Family. Great time to be had by all.

Most ladies dream of their wedding day and I was not on of those. My husband pushed for us to get some help and keep the wedding planning process smoother. Fast forward to the wedding being behind us and I am so greatful we were paired with shanika for my may 19th wedding. She was on it! I had alot of DIY components and am naturally very particular-- and she made it ALL happen. ** Despite crazy rain and last minute day off changes being made, I was ready for my wedding about 45 min before my first look and was able to relax with my family. I would recommend anyone and everyone to shanika.

Hiring Shadé Coleman from Details Made Simple was by far the best decision we made in the wedding planning process. About 3 months before our wedding, I was overwhelmed with finalizing the details of our big day. I researched day of coordinators on WeddingWire and the Knot and decided to contact Details Made Simple. Carla Friday, the owner, contacted me immediately, offering her assistance and reassuring me that her team of professionals would handle everything so we could enjoy time with each other and our family and friends. We had the pleasure of working with Shadé for our May 19, 2017 wedding at The Tides Estate. Shadé was amazing! She was personable and professional; I did not have to worry about a thing on the day of my wedding. My mom (who is very difficult to please) was impressed with her attention to detail and ability to stay calm under pressure. I highly Shadé Coleman (she was worth every penny!) and Details Made Simple; Shadé made everyone feel comfortable and kept our day on schedule and stress free as possible. - Tara (Werner) and Paul Quagliato
