“We truly cannot say enough good things about Hope. She made the entire process leading up to our wedding — and especially the day itself — feel so much easier and more manageable. In the weeks and days before the wedding, she was incredibly organized and thoughtful, and somehow always seemed to be one step ahead. She created a very detailed timeline, made sure our family and vendors were all on the same page, and had every little detail accounted for.
On the day of the wedding, everything went so smoothly, and we really credit Hope for that. She completely understood what we were trying to create and executed on every detail. She also had great ideas for things we hadn't thought of, like using a carabiner to hang our disco ball and helping us think through the best layout for our tables and last-minute tent seating so everything felt comfortable and flowed well. She gave us really helpful advice about how to handle certain vendors and logistics, and her upbeat and positive attitude was such a gift during a time that can otherwise be pretty stressful — she always made us feel like everything was under control. We were able to actually enjoy our wedding and be present with our friends and family because we knew Hope was handling everything behind the scenes. We are so grateful we had her there and would recommend her to anyone getting married!”

Bride - “Hope (and her assistant Olivia) were my lifelines. I cannot express how grateful I am for their expertise in managing my wedding across multiple vendors and 3 locations within NYC. Hope is insanely talented, detail-oriented, and a master of her craft. I honestly wouldn’t have survived the day without her. She is communicative, her pricing is fair and straightforward, and she truly went out of her way to make sure we were confidence and at ease for our wedding. The event was seamless, and Hope has a solution for everything. There was a mishap with my bouquet the morning-of and she handled it within minutes - I had a new bouquet headed my way almost instantly. If you’re thinking you might need a wedding manager, the answer is you do. Don’t skip this part. Hire Hope.”
Groom - “Our wedding was on Saturday in NYC. Hope & Love Co. managed EVERYTHING and did it very very very well. Can’t imagine the weekend without them. Anticipated every need. Moved around like ninjas. If you’re planning a wedding, HIRE THEM today.”
Bridesmaid - “Hope and her team made my best friend’s wedding day feel joyful and effortlessly calm - no small feat for a busy Saturday in Manhattan! They kept the whole wedding party moving seamlessly from venue to venue, and their emergency kit was a lifesaver for more than a few of us.”
“Hope is an absolute pleasure to be around and the best wedding coordinator I’ve had the privilege of seeing up close as a bridesmaid. Thank you for everything!”

“Hope is literally the best. She pulled my whole wedding together. Months later, my husband, family, and friends STILL talk about wonderful she is: how helpful and on top of everything, how fun and easy to work with, how she made everything magically run so smooth! I came to her at the end of my planning process and asked her to double-check all my work, help find anything I'd missed, and do day-of coordination. I liked her immediately! She's personable, and I felt super comfortable discussing my needs and budget (something which can be tricky in the wedding world).
During the planning process, she had great questions and thoughts I never would have known to ask. I didn't know much about weddings, and she was great at explaining even the basics. She had wonderful suggestions and support when I got stuck on a weird detail. She has great organizational documents. She lifted so much weight off my shoulders! It was amazing to no longer be worrying about minute-to-minute schedules or order of operations.
Day-of, she was an absolute lifesaver. She handled some last-minute details I'd forgotten, saved my dress from slipping down, handled funny mishaps throughout the night, and coordinated my decor and vendors to look even more beautiful than expected!!! She truly was such fun and joy to be around that my family and wedding party praised her all night, and still bring up how awesome she is whenever we reminisce.
Hire Hope!!!”

“Let me start by saying - everyone needs a Hope in their corner! My fiancé and I aren’t big party people, but we knew we wanted to celebrate our engagement. Hope helped us conceptualize and execute the BEST (engagement) party I’ve been to! She made the entire process SEAMLESS!
Hope’s industry knowledge and experience had her identify potential hiccups in our party planning; things you wouldn’t initially consider. For example, although we were a “no gifts” couple, many people brought gifts anyway and we were unprepared in how to transport these. Hope immediately brought out an XL tote bag before I even recognized the potential issue. It felt like all our needs were anticipated and our glass was never empty! She coordinated with our vendors so we truly had nothing to do day-of except enjoy ourselves. Because of this, my fiancé and I were able to lean into the celebration and did traditions we didn’t initially plan, like a cake-cutting photo op (which is now our favorite picture from the event!). All in all, I’m not sure I would’ve had a good time at my party without Hope & Love Co., but now we have wonderful memories that will last a lifetime! We’re so, so grateful to Hope for making this night unforgettable. 10/10 would recommend her day-of services and consultations!”

“Hope is such a star!! As an event planner, I was very particular about the planning of my wedding. As a bride, I had no time day of to coordinate the plans I made. Being able to sit back and have Hope confirm arrival of vendors, supplies, and set up was huge. She was a calm problem solver and came up with creative solutions (like when we found out that I broke decor in transport). She made me feel so good that my vision was coming to life! I couldn’t have done the day without her!!”

“Hope was on top of things I didn’t even know I needed to know. She came to the table with so much knowledge, organization and good energy that I trusted her implicitly to manage and organize everything from vendors coming and going, helping guests find what they needed, and just overall keeping everything in step. She had plans and back up plans that materialized as needed throughout the night. She made us feel like we could just breeze through the day and enjoy. My only regret was not bringing her on sooner!”

“Hope was very proactive in ensuring even the smallest details were just the way I’d envisioned on my wedding day. Her passion and willingness to advocate for me, in addition to her infectious positivity are sure to make your big day go off without a hitch!”

“Hope is super organized when planning for events and has such great, creative ideas! She knows how to speak up on your behalf and brings an enthusiastic energy. A prime example of her many skills is when she sewed my sister into her bridesmaid dress when it ripped minutes before walking down the aisle!”

“Hope's support throughout my wedding day was a lifesaver! She was my go-to for all the things I was nervous to talk to my venue contact about or was worried might not go according to plan. She kept every vendor and detail on schedule throughout the whole day from getting ready through to our last dance. She even tracked down our venue contact to fix details in our place settings that weren't being set up to match our layouts. She catches the details others wouldn't think of and communicates kindly and professionally to keep everything on track.
If you have a venue contact or vendor who isn't the most on top of things, you can count on Hope to make sure every tiny detail goes off without a hitch.
When Hope is your day of coordinator, it means you have a built in bestie, a creative problem solver, and someone who will make you feel at ease so you're not worried about anything except having the best day ever!”

“Hiring Hope as our day of wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions we made. She immediately connected with our vendors, managed the timeline and made sure every detail was exactly how we envisioned. We were able to enjoy our day without having to worry about the little things. If your planning a wedding but want peace of mind for the day of, we can’t recommend Hope enough!”
