Modern Moments Event Planning

For our recent Austin wedding, we were privileged to have Wes and her team at Modern Moments as our day of coordinator. While traditionally, the bride is the main planner of weddings, I, as the groom was actively involved in planning our wedding. As someone who appreciates organization, attention to detail, and follow-​up, I received all of that and more from Wes throughout the wedding planning process. She was kind, patient, and generous with her time, which went along way with us as our wedding date came closer. On the day of the event, she was in control, organized, and truly provided me with a sense that everything was going to run smoothly (which it did, in large part to her). I cannot recommend Modern Moments enough.

When I first started planning my wedding, I didn’t think I would need a coordinator and hesitated for a long time but I couldn’t have been more wrong! Wes of Modern Moments is awesome. She is laid back and easy going but at the same time extremely detail oriented and made my day go off without a hitch! I could not have had the wedding I did, without her. She planned every event on the day of, down to the minute, helped cue each and every one of my vendors and allowed me to relax on the day of my wedding! I felt like I was all over the place in my decisions before I hired Wes and she helped me make final decisions and narrow down vendors. No question was too small or big for Modern Moments. They have heard it all and are quick to answer anything that may arise. Wes set up all of my decorations exactly the way I wanted them and took them down at the end of the evening, so I didn’t have to worry about a thing. I may still be in planning mode if Wes had not come along as she helped me to make decisions! I had complete trust in Wes and knew anything that may come up would be handled impeccably by her and it most certainly was. Just not having to worry about little things on the day of the wedding was so worth it! We received so many compliments on what a beautiful wedding we had!
Don’t hesitate to hire Wes if you are looking for a wedding planner!

I included business cards with my invitations that directed guests to our wedding website «For more information on The Best Wedding Ever».
Hey, no one ever said I was afraid to set the bar high! I set out to have the best wedding ever, and I did… but I am not too humble to say that without Wes and Modern Moments it never would have happened. Not a chance.
I had 5 five months to plan my wedding, and all I knew for sure was what I DIDN’T want — I didn’t want mason jars, lace, and any of that beige-​colored vintage-​y country /​Victorian stuff that is so in right now.
I wanted my wedding to be a reflection of my hubby and I, and to choose décor, food, drinks, music, etc that we’d remember forever and that accented our beautiful venue. I just didn’t know where to start!
Enter Wes. Wes just «got me» right from the beginning. She helped me flush out and execute my vision. She made spot-​on vendor recommendations, bounced ideas off of me, wasn’t afraid to think outside of the box, was super professional and not afraid to get me out of jams or tell me when something was not a good idea. Wes is a problem solver — she doesn’t just tell your her opinion, she offers solutions and examples.
If your wedding is small and intimate, you need Wes.
If your wedding is large and off the charts, you need Wes.
Anywhere in between, Wes. You get the picture.
No bride can do everything on their own, and if you try to you will lose your freaking mind. Instead of going crazy, hire Wes and the investment will pay off 10 times over.
Plus, she’s cool and you’ll want to stay in touch with her after your wedding. How many other vendors will you say that about?
