Kameron

I just wanted to send you a very long overdue THANK YOU so much for everything! You were absolutely incredible not only on the wedding day, but every bit leading up to it. The wedding turned out exactly how Teddy and I were hoping, and I know that we couldn't have done it without you! Your recommendations for flowers, photographer, hair, makeup and transportation were wonderful, your timelines so precise and organized, and the little details that I would have missed or forgotten on my own, you remembered! You kept everyone in line and helped the rehearsal run incredibly smoothly, and I breathed a sigh of relief when you arrived on the morning of the wedding - I knew everything was going to go smoothly, and it did! From making sure the soft pretzels got on the trolley (those were delicious by the way!) to giving my dress one last fluff before I walked down the aisle, from getting everyone in place for the introductions to helping me re-bustle my dress countless times throughout the night, you and your wonderful assistants were always right where we needed you, going above and beyond (even if we didn't know it!)

I can't tell you how many people in the wedding party said to me throughout the day and after the wedding, "Kameron is amazing!" My mom thought you were a total life-saver. They were all right! I thought I might want a wedding planner from day one, but definitely had moments where I questioned and thought, "maybe I could do this on my own afterall, I'm enough of a detail-oriented person." But the truth is, I couldn't have (and wouldn't have wanted to have) done it without you. There are so many things that people don't even realize go into planning a perfect wedding, but you have it all figured out. And one of the other great things was that I really came to think of you not as a wedding planner, but as a friend. You were always there to vent to with my frustrations and help me put things in perspective by sharing your own experiences. I had fun brainstorming ideas with you and laughing at little things along the way. You kept me stress free throughout the planning process and the actual wedding weekend, allowing me to really enjoy the entire process and event! I'll really miss you!

Thank you, again, for everything - you're the best! I would recommend you to anyone!
Love, Sarah Koch

Dear Kameron

A spectacularly elegant event, is what our guests and we are feeling about our son James and his bride, Julie's wedding weekend. The phone and emails have not stopped listing all the many reasons we all feel this wedding was the most beautiful we have ever seen.

Kameron, when Julie told me she had contacted you to help with the day of wedding coordination, I did not imagine all the behind the scenes work you do. In addition to the wedding day, I am so very thankful that you were able to assist us with both the Rehearsal dinner and the post wedding Brunch. No one could have told me in advance all the exceptional work that you do. The timeline preparations, contacting and follow through of all the vendors, just being our eyes and ears to make sure every intricate detail is how we had envisioned the wedding. We attended the events as guests thanks to you and the tireless work that you did for us. It is hard to put into words what this means to us.

A wedding for your child is a memory of the ages. We have one chance to make sure this is done perfectly, and with your help, we did just that. We could not have done this without you. More than that, I also feel we have started a friendship that will take us both to more events for our new family.

Thank you for your professionalism and many kindnesses extended to us. You are truly extraordinary.

Our hearts are still dancing.

With our love,
Dr and Mrs Alan Bess Parents of the groom, James Millon and our new daughter in law Julie Millon

Dear Kameron

I would like to take a little more time and express just how much my husband and I enjoyed working with you!!We came to you one month before our wedding having just parted ways with a planner who caused more stress than anything else wedding related. We met with you for a couple hours on a weeknight and walked away feeling more relaxed than we had in a long time. In fact, we have said numerous times that you did more work in those few hours than the previous planner had done in a year and a half. For the first time, we really felt like someone cared about our special day. You were kind and full of ideas and it overjoyed us. Over the next few weeks you and I were in constant contact. You answered all of my questions thoroughly and were always one step ahead of me. I can’t tell you how many times I would say something like “Maybe I should call the tent company today and find out…” and your response was always along the lines of “I talked to them yesterday, they’re all set, everything’s fine.” And everything was fine. We dealt with a very difficult venue where our entire wedding weekend was to be held. They were, from the beginning, unorganized and unhelpful. Only because of you did I feel like this may be an obstacle but not one that was going to affect anything. And, of course, in the end, everything was perfect. My only compliant was it was a little chilly and windy, and I know that if you had it in your power you would have fixed that for me too! You ran a great rehearsal, and helped organize a wonderful rehearsal dinner. You and your assistants’ were around and helpful throughout the entire day of for everyone in the wedding party. Not only did they take care of business, we all laughed together and enjoyed ourselves. The night was absolutely spectacular thanks to you,, and I couldn’t ask for more.I’m sure you know, and I’m sure you have been told before, but please let me say it again. You was nothing short of wonderful. You allowed me to have a perfect wedding! I cannot thank you enough for giving me the wedding of my dreams, but also allowing me to enjoy the planning process. I only wish I had met you sooner.

Hi Kameron

First off, a tremendous apology for it taking six months to write you this, and then another one for it being over email. I think my hand is just starting to uncramp after all the thank you notes. So much for gender equality...

Although it has taken so long to write, it's inversely proportional to the amount of gratitude we felt and continue to feel over all you did leading up to the wedding and beyond. You were truly amazing in how you handled every single detail to perfection. You were unbelievably organized and were always available and responsive -- day and night. You were our go-to person for any little question we had and you gave great advice (even on things that probably weren't in your job description). On top of it all, you managed to deal with all the different personalities involved in a way that left everyone telling us the entire experience was flawless. Not only did my mom tell me repeatedly how grateful she was to not have to be in charge of all the typical "mom" tasks, but both fathers felt so inspired that you were the first one they wanted to thank in their speeches at the reception! It was a perfect event (including Bill's singing, of course), and I know that it wouldn't have been that without you. I also know that I would not have felt so completely lacking in stress and just able to enjoy every moment. It's definitely not my nature!

Although I can't list everything you did that made it so great, there were a few things that still stand out in my mind -- like when you insisted that Bill's mom not do any more than she absolutely had to (even though she would have), or when you cut the wrap off your injured hand so you could un-bustle and then re-bustle my dress after we suddenly decided to take more pictures following the ceremony, or how just as my veil was starting to fall off my head at the reception you miraculously appeared and whisked it away before I even got my hands up to my head. I still can't figure out how that happened. I honestly don't even know how everything managed to be where it was supposed to be exactly when it was supposed to be there, but somehow you made it work, right down to the end of the night when everything was all packed up and sent off to where it was supposed to go, including me and Bill ;) I honestly can't think of one thing that didn't go extremely smoothly -- at least that I knew about, which I am guessing is the point!

Above all else, you made everything incredibly fun and everyone loved having you around. You never seemed stressed and alway took time to talk to anyone that needed you, even though you were in constant motion. You also took the time to touch base with Bill's parents directly, either to plan with Bill's mom (because she did the reception set-up) or to just make sure Bill's dad had his say (because he did the...commenting). And when my family arrived from Wisconsin, you completely embraced them.

I hope all continues to go well for you. We're looking forward to seeing you in August, since you're the planner for our friends' (Diana and Sean) wedding. They had to have you after seeing how perfect you made our wedding ;)

Many (many) thanks, Becky (& Bill)







Beloved Kameron

I always thank the tech crew in my productions - most people feel that because the tech are paid well, they don't need to be thanked in the same way as the "artistE" folk do. But without the tech we don't appear or sound well. And that's what you did - you performed the role of a stage manager par excellance in a complex and very emotional production - one that did not have a repeat performance - no second chances to "do it right". We shall remember you with gratitude whenever we envision Lela and Joel's wedding.

Love, Janaki
From the Mother of the Bride:

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!Kameron,Now that I can breathe again, I would like to thank you for all of your hard work and support this past year. You did an amazing job helping us plan this sometimes, logistical challenge. It went so well. We have spent the past few days reviewing everything......I think the overwhelming opinion is that it could not have been better. There are of course a few things I would have done differently or not at all, but not much. Megan and Conor will truly remember their special day and your part in it all. I hope in the near future to thank you properly, but for now words will have to do... How about Pete and J.......they were my favorite part! With 4 more girls down the line, I hope our relationship continues......Take care. Thanks again.Pam

From the the Bride:

Dear Kameron,I have been meaning to send you a proper written thank you note, but honestly, my hand is cramped.. so consider this my hideously late THANK YOU for all your hard work to make my wedding so freaking amazing. From ... helping my spastic family actually cooperate for even 2 minutes to the very last minute of the night of the third, you were totally amazing, on point, and soooooooo friendly. I am really happy that I got to know you (mostly though email in the beginning :) ) and I hope we can keep in contact in the future! You are incredibly patient, organized and fun, and anyone who gets to work with you in the future is totally blessed... You are the best in the biz, and I wish you nothing but awesomeness in your future. Let me know how you're doing! xoxo,Megan

Kate and I leave for the honeymoon in a scant...oh...six hours, and before I catch a few minutes of sleep, I had to send you a quick note.

I just want to say thank you ten, one hundred, ten THOUSAND times for all you did to make our wedding such a tremendous and moving success. I can say flatly that it would never have succeeded without your help. Sean too, of course. We heard from literally dozens of guests that ours was the most fun, most exciting and most beautiful wedding they'd ever attended, and you're a major part of that response.

Kate and I will put our heads together when we're back in the States, send you a proper thank you and all. I just felt that after all you did, you should know how appreciative we are as soon as possible.

Excellent, excellent, excellent working with you- I'm happy to tell you we forgot you were the coordinator during the wedding, and really thought of you and Sean as two of our friends (incredibly busy and VERY generous friends willing to totally take all the pressure off of us, but still- friends). I can't think of a better compliment, so there it is.

Have a GREAT week.

Shaun
