Cassidy literally helped me stay sane during my wedding planning. She helped me keep me on schedule. She was willing to help give honest opinions on what she thought would work and what would work better. She made a conscious effort to not only get to know what I wanted but also to get to know me. She anticipated what she thought I would feel is stressful and went above and beyond to make it less stressful. The day of my wedding went as smoothly as possible. Toni came the end of my wedding to help and was phenomenal. My parents can’t say enough about how organized and helpful she was. I would recommend either of them to any bride. - Chelsea, Bride

Choosing Event Doc was the single best choice I made for my wedding (Well, my husband selection was pretty spot-on, too). Heather was exceptional and took all anxiety out of my day. She handled an unexpected downpour (and, thus, venue change), ripped wedding dress, broken wedding earrings, transportation confusion, bridesmaid dress fiasco and day-of schedule changes like a champ. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing other than being present on the most wonderful day of my life. Her kindness, professionalism, creativity and exceptional communication skills made any day-of mishaps seem inconsequential. I would absolutely recommend this team to any couple looking to put your most important day in the hands of someone who treats the day as important as her own wedding. -Dani, Bride

Working with Heather leading up to and on our wedding day was the BEST decision we made during planning. She was incredible at making recommendations, sending us lists of vendors to consider, keeping up with the timeline and ensuring all of the little details of the day were taken care of. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed that day and gave us the ability to enjoy the special moments that come along with a wedding. We would recommend Heather in a heartbeat! She was so personable, organized and just an all-around life-saver! - Allyson, Bride

I put off writing this review of Event DOC (today is exactly nine months post-wedding) because I have struggled with how to put into words the AMAZING work of Heather and her Event DOC team. Even now as I sit to write this, I don’t quite know if I’ll be able to communicate how great they are, but I’m going to try!

First, my mom and I initially met with Cassidy and Heather to discuss my plans for the wedding and how they might be able to offer support. My mom and I left the meeting knowing that we definitely wanted to hire them them for the following reasons: they were friendly and professional; they asked great questions that gently pushed us to consider logistics we wouldn’t have thought of on our own; and, they were enthusiastic about helping my now-husband and I have exactly the kind of wedding we wanted.

Heather ended up being our go-to for wedding planning, and she was a rock star. Leading up to the big day, I had a few planning calls with her (I live out-of-state and was getting married just outside STL). She helped me strategize and keep my ducks in a row, all the while being a warm, reassuring presence. My fiance felt the same when he joined some of the calls closer to our wedding day. However, wedding weekend was when Heather really shined.

Our wedding took place at an old barn on family property that my relatives were converting to an event venue. We were the first people to be married there. As happens during construction, things took longer than expected. My relatives and the construction crews had to scramble to finish everything up and were still working on the barn the morning of the wedding. We had to rearrange the seating chart at the last minute when we discovered the tables didn’t fit the floor plan. My dad and brother-in-law were pouring concrete the day before the wedding. My little cousins cleaned up construction dust in the bathrooms. Additionally, the weekend ended up being really rainy, and we had to make another last-minute adjustment to have the ceremony inside the barn. However, the whole time, despite the changes and uncertainties, we felt confident and calm because we knew we were in good hands with Heather. Because we had seen how organized and prepared she was throughout the whole planning process, we trusted that she’d make sure everything went smoothly. She did that, and so much more. (I’d also like to thank Colleen and the bartenders from Event DOC who also contributed to a day that was so fun and worry-free for us!)

My husband and I look back at our wedding day and feel so grateful for Heather’s friendliness and diplomatic assertiveness. One of Heather’s strengths was tactfully taking charge of situations in which decisions needed to be made or people needed direction. She clearly understands the delicate nature of family and friend relationships and that emotions can run high during wedding time. For my husband and I, this was an invaluable asset during our wedding weekend. For example, our pushy DJ ended up needing to be reined in at times, and Heather skillfully navigated those difficult conversations so that my husband and I could focus on having fun and enjoying the company of our guest. Thank you, Heather!!

Needless to say, I loved having Heather on our wedding planning team and cannot recommend her and Event DOC highly enough. - Julie, Bride

Heather is without a doubt the ultimate wedding coordinator! Words can not describe what an amazing job she did! I'm so happy that I chose to hire someone because looking back, there's NO WAY I could've done it without her! -Caitlin. Bride

We just had Heather as our wedding coordinator. She was a fantastic "day of" coordinator! She met with us beforehand, and answered lots of questions preparing for the event, and gave us great references for different vendors. She was super calm, had great vibes and handled the day of perfectly from keeping the day moving to seamlessly taking care of any problems without issue and taking any and all stress off of us so we could enjoy our day. Our family and friends were very impressed. Thanks Heather! -Drea, Bride

Autumn & John | 03.1.2019 | ThE Abbey

Cassidy was organized, punctual, caring and well versed in all things wedding related! She helped pull a rowdy bunch together and make them listen and know exactly what to do and where to go. We used her as our day of coordinator but she helped us in many more ways. She set up an amazing working document that helped us keep track of our timeline, vendors, and items to bring. She kept calm in crazy situations and made simple decorations look like a million bucks in the venue. She recommended our DJ which we can’t thank her enough for because he was amazing! She sat on numerous calls and even let us borrow decor items for the ceremony and reception. I couldn’t have done any of this without her! We love her! -Autumn, Bride

I personally don’t have the words to describe my experience with Heather because words do not feel sufficient enough to express how grateful I am for her. She was the force behind my wedding and ensuring that my day was perfect, and it was beyond perfect. Working with Heather alleviated so much my stress and anxiety from the wedding process for me. As a first time bride, I was clueless and scared. She was always a phone call away, quick with email responses (even when I would email her at 1 am because something was on my mind) and she took all of the stress out of my day and ensured it was perfect. You would be a making a mistake not to hire her for your wedding! She was the best part of my day because she made it her mission for me to have the best day. Thank you, Heather! - Alex, Bride

Cassidy provides the best service around! She eased my mind while planning and made sure my wedding day ran smoothly! She is so experienced and resolves all hiccups (which are inevitable) with ease! I really couldn’t have done it without Event Doc STL! Thanks for all the help to make my wedding day perfect! -Stephanie, Bride

If your want your wedding day to be a smooth as possible and not have to worry about anything, you have to go with Cassidy and Event DOC. Every time we talked to her leading up to our wedding, we were put at ease knowing that Cassidy would be on top of her game. She is just simply the best. - Mike, Groom

Cassidy was wonderful to work with! In the months leading up to the wedding she kept us on track and helped us make down the right decisions at the right time. As the wedding drew near and things to keep track of multiplied, I was so happy to have Cassidy on our team. The day of the wedding she handled the details - and the minor snafus - with ease and grace, and let us concentrate on what's important (and fun!) Looking back on the event with friends and guests, everyone was impressed with the nice touches which made them feel special. Cassidy's thoughtful attention to detail and organizational superpowers really took our wedding to the next level, and I cannot recommend her enough! - Matt, Groom

I cannot say enough about Cassidy. I knew I would need someone to help me get through our wedding day but didn’t know where to even begin to look for the help. My husband and I have a great friend who recommended Cassidy so I reached out to her and set up a meeting. We hit it off immediately!! I knew from just the first time we spoke she was exactly what I (we) needed to get through our day. She was there every single step of the way and opened my eyes to things I would have NEVER even thought of! As a bride, planning my own wedding, I knew I couldn’t do or think of it all and she was that missing piece that pulled it all together. She was no doubt the best person (and decision) I could have chose to make our day go so smoothly. I literally had to do nothing besides show up and look pretty, she took care of everything!! We grew a great relationship and still talk to this day. I highly recommend every bride use her for your wedding day, even if your doing a small event. You won’t regret it! Much love Cassidy, you are amazing! -Sami, Bride

"Heather and Cassidy are fabulous! We live in California and were planning our wedding in STL. We knew that we wanted a DOC to help us with coordinating vendors and figuring out some of the logistics since planning from out of state gets a bit tricky. They were incredibly helpful along the way! They met with us a few times when we were in town and really had a great understanding of what we wanted our wedding day to be. The planning forms they gave us were also super helpful. As stressful as wedding planning can be, it is so much easier when your DOC keeps reassuring you that she is there for whatever you need. Heather ran our rehearsal and helped our first time officiant out with arranging the ceremony. She helped coordinate our vendors, calm anxious family members, set up, and pack up at the end of the night. I cannot tell you how calm and stress free this made the whole day of the wedding. It was so nice that no one felt like they needed to rush to the venue to set up decor. I explained to her what I was thinking and she made sure it all got set up in a way and brought to life. It made the day so smooth not only for us but also for our family members. We were able to relax and spend time together getting ready and enjoying the day. We can’t thank her enough for making our wedding day so easy on our end and so enjoyable! The day really does fly by and having someone that you trust to handle logistics really lets you relax and soak it all in without worrying about the extra stuff." - Amanda, Bride

"Heather and Cassidy worked flawlessly to ensure that not only our wedding day turned out perfect but that the planning process, rehearsal and rehearsal dinner went smoothly. I’m so glad that I decided to work with Event DOC because they laid out everything planning a wedding requires, asked questions, and even brought up topics that I didn’t even think about. I highly recommend Event DOC services to anyone looking for expert coordination for their next event." - Kaitlyn, Bride

"We would have been lost without Cassidy Johns our Event DOC STL, not only a friend and sorority sister, she was the glue to the entire weekend! We would have been lost without our event doc Cassidy. For a personal touch, stress free, and perfectly executed, big day you need Event Doc STL!" - Katie, Bride

This beautiful and ambitious couple had quite the vision for this big day. Check out this incredible video by JMLoft Videography highlighting their fun and joyful wedding and reception. We must give a vendor shout out to Deryl Luster of Deluxe DJs and Entertainment. NEVER have we seen so many people remain on the dance floor throughout the reception!

"Cassidy was the perfect addition to our team." - Tom, Father of the Bride

Mary and Ryan had a one-of-a-kind ceremony and reception at the fun and fabulous Third Degree Glass Factory. The photos from this event tell quite a story.

"Cassidy was an amazing help in making sure our wedding went off without a hitch. She led our rehearsal and was my DOC the following day. She handled every detail of my reception, from greeting vendors to arranging tables and decorating to making sure the bridal party was exactly where they needed to be and when. I am positive there is so much she did that I don't even know about because she made it her top priority that I enjoy my day and let her do the rest. I am so thankful for Cassidy's hard work and professionalism. THANK YOU, Cassidy!!" - Kaelyn, Bride

She helped make sure that everything ran smoothly so that I didn't have to deal with unnecessary stress on one of the biggest day of my life!! If anyone needs a day of wedding coordinator, Cassidy is great!!" - Kaitlyn, Bride

"I've always loved everything that went into weddings. So when I got engaged, I was so excited to plan my own wedding.I thought that I did not need a day of coordinator because between my dad (my florist) and I, we could do it all ourselves. Then two weeks before my wedding my stress levels were through the roof. That's when I decided to hire Cassidy. I was nervous because she was coming in so late to the game....I was getting married in 13 days! After meeting with her for only about an hour, I could not believe the amount of stress that was instantly gone. She brought a schedule to our first meeting that included everything from timelines all the way to my vendor information. I emailed her everything I had and she compiled it together much better than my own wedding binder that I had consistently forgotten about. A few of my vendors were friends, so no contracts were involved. Just to make sure everyone was on the same page, she wrote up contracts and had many conference calls with them. Her "midnight to midnight" policy is so much more than that. She answered my texts (that I bombarded her phone with for two weeks) immediately and sent over a slew of indoor photo options when I was panicking the week of my wedding that it could rain. She even came to my rehearsal, even though my church had a coordinator, just to be an extra set of hands to make sure everything went smoothly. The morning of my wedding, not only did she stop by and drop off my favorite Starbucks drink, but she helped set up the ENTIRE reception, so my father could make it to the church to walk me down the aisle. She acted as a host at my reception, answering questions from guests and directing them where they needed to go. She completely took all the stress away from my family, my groom, and I. We were able to completely enjoy ourselves, without having to worry about our timelines. She was there to tear everything down and make sure that everything made it to the right vehicles. I never thought I would be a bride that needed a day of coordinator, but Cassidy made it feel as if she were my best friend, making sure my day was perfect. And my day was ABSOLUTELY perfect, mostly due to her. Her professionalism, knowledge, and talent helped make my wedding day the best day of my life, and I wouldn't have changed a thing." - Rachel, Bride

"Best wedding coordinator I have ever worked with...and I've worked with too many to count over 30+ years of doing the florals for hundreds of weddings. Highly, HIGHLY recommend Cassidy !"
