5 Reviews for Shannon Wellington
Hiring the team for month of coordination and day of planning allowed our families to relax and enjoy every single moment of the events. Michelle and Chris are an incredible team and we saw them literally sprint across lawns, down stairs, whip out their backpacks, drop to the floor and handle any and all issues that arose (as they always will!) and also were so incredibly attentive to all family members and the bridal party. When we shared with our florist, caterer, musicians, venue and vendors that we were working with Shannon Wellington Weddings they all immediately reassured us that this was going to be an amazing event, and indeed it was!!
Michelle's assistance with all of the timelines and coordinating and working with the vendors allowed our family to enjoy the time leading up to the wedding weekend rather than being panic-stricken, exhausted and overwhelmed. We thank you all for allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of A+P's wedding and we will forever remember you and be grateful.
