Testimonials

I would have crumbled without Haley. Let's start there. She came in and immediately got to work. I had hired someone else originally who wasn't a good fit and I came to Haley in distress. I had so many details and vendors I had been juggling on my own and after my first meeting with Haley I felt a massive weight lifted off my shoulders. Despite knowing Haley for the last decade, I had attended weddings she coordinated and read the testimonials of others to know my wedding was in THE best hands. My last 3 months of wedding planning were *mostly* stress-free and that is all due to her, her hard work, persistence, organization, and many other features that boast Haley as truly one of the best. Skip to the actual wedding day and I continued to feel overwhelmingly grateful to have her on my "team". It was a thunderstorm, rainy wedding day, but that didn't stop Haley from kicking absolute butt. In the downpour she was directing vendors, managing, coordinating, helping unload and set up, did I mention she was also wrangling her 4 year old niece(my flower girl) and my 2 year old son? Nothing can stop her. She is a master of her craft and truly does everything in her power to ensure every detail is acknowledged and executed while giving us the peace that everything is handled. I even had other vendors tell me how bada$$ she was. The day was as seamless as possible. To know her is a blessing, to hire her for wedding coordination or event planning is a NO BRAINER.

Haley made the wedding planning process so much easier for me, especially when it came to the actual day of the wedding! She managed everything so I didn’t have to lift a finger and I could just relax the day of. She also thinks of everything you may not think of (big or small) and covers all the bases. So thankful for the all the work she put in!! Such a wonderful and reliable wedding planner!

Haley went above and beyond for our wedding! My husband and I booked Haley as our coordinator/ planner & could not have asked for a better business to do so! Haley put together the perfect timeline for our day down to the minute, sent us playlists of songs for the reception, gave recommendations on entry songs, helped with alllll the details, & above all she kept us organized, sane, & on schedule! Haley and her team were professional, and efficient! She stepped in when needed & handled everything seamlessly! I would highly recommend Haley and A Time to Gather for all of your planning and coordinating needs!

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Haley! I started my wedding planning/process as a DIY bride. I was determined to do it ALL. While I did choose most of the things I wanted and vendors I wanted to use, the process of coordinating it all, working my day job and being a mom was not going to be possible. My husband pushed me to find a day of coordinator and in swooped Haley. She SAVED THE DAY. I had no idea how many steps I missed or the level of planning that needed to go in to the actual wedding day. Haley took over the planning process about 30 days before the big day and she took care of it all. I went from being a ball of stress to feeling like, "don't you need me to do anything?!" I heard nothing but great reports from the other vendors of how easy she was to work with too. Our day went off without a hitch! When I say her itinerary was planed down to the minute, I mean the MINUTE. Honestly, I didn't believe everything would fit so perfectly into her timeline until it did. She's a professional, y'all! I am typically a very anxious person and I was so worried I would ruin my own day with my own worries but I felt so calm and confident with Haley's guidance. I would choose her over and over again! After the wedding my husband made a joke, "can we just hire Haley to follow us around and coordinate our daily lives too?!" We all had such a great experience with her. If you're looking for the perfect wedding coordinator, stop here, you found her!

I seriously couldn’t imagine my wedding day without the support from Haley. She made the planning process months prior so enjoyable, and allowed me to focus on the overall picture. I was highly impressed with all the little details she executed, details I would’ve never thought about on my own. On my wedding day, I was never stressed about any of of the setup and small things, because I was so confident that Haley would go above and beyond in accomplishing everything that was needed. Haley is so professional, and she still manages to make it fun, allowing me to focus on the main reason behind my big day. I truly don’t think my day would have been so calm and smooth without her encouragement, support, and professionalism. If you are trying to find someone to take the stress off your big day, so you can focus on taking in and enjoying one of the most meaningful days of your life, I highly recommend that you book with Haley!

Haley did an amazing job with our wedding! I felt like I could ask her anything and she always knew the answer, or had great suggestions! I didn’t have to worry about anything on the day-of because I knew she had it all under control! I knew I could trust her because of her quick response/good communication, and her thorough check list’s that she used for our meetings! If you want to chill out on your wedding day knowing that everything is going to turn out absolutely perfect, hire this girl!!  Seriously tho... 

Haley is a BOSS ass bitch. She runs the place. Problem? Yo, she’ll solve it. Oh one of the vases broke?? She’s zooming her ass to the next hobby lobby on her moped!! Hungry?? She’ll bring you your food, AND guard your sweetheart table. Your drunk uncle?? She’s kicking his ass out. Basically, she’d kick ass for any of her brides.

From the moment we talked to Haley and had a conversation with her about what she could do for us and how she could help, we felt instant relief! She was a saving grace and made our wedding a stress-less, wonderful, incredible experience. The fond memories I have of our wedding would not have occurred without her diligence, organization, and professional demeanor. We met with Haley a few times before our wedding to hash out the details and she was willing to work with our schedule and always came prepared and organized. On our wedding day she was there early helping to get things set up so we didn’t have to worry about a thing! It definitely would not have ran as smoothly without her. 

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, Haley is great! Being stress free the day of your wedding is priceless.

Words cannot express my gratitude for Haley! My wedding was truly a day to never forget and everything went so smoothly. It was THE PERFECT wedding all thanks to Haley's dedication, experience, and resourcefulness. For the longest time I didn't think I would need a wedding coordinator, but boy am I so happy that I decided to hire Haley. After our first consultation I was immediately relieved and knew that Haley was going to do everything in her power to make our day as special as ever. Haley is quick and knows how to handle situations on the spot. Haley took my very small and complicated timeline and made it perfect. She communicated with all vendors, which was a huge stress off my shoulders. She is extremely good at keeping the schedule and adapting accordingly. Throughout the reception, Haley would help us transition from dances, to cake-cutting, to the bouquet toss, and more! If you need a coordinator, pick Haley, not only does she do an amazing job, but she does it with a warm heart and is very professional in a friendly way! Haley is super organized and I was not worried about a single thing the whole day & night. I highly recommend Haley to be your wedding coordinator, trust me, you won't regret it!

Please look no further, Haley Smithwick is the coordinator you need for any event you’re planning. Haley coordinated my wedding in 2018, and she saved the day on more than one occasion. She was extremely organized, professional, and easy to work with! I even forgot my garter the day of my wedding, and I realized not long before I had to walk down the isle. Haley quickly called someone and had them bring me an extra one just in time! She even helped with my 2 year old daughter that day. I highly recommend Haley if you need a coordinator for any event!
