About Here It Blooms

Here It Blooms

Hi friend! I'm Pauline, and I am excited to help you have a fun, memorable and well-coordinated wedding. I left my career as a project manager at Meta to pursue my passion in event planning. Executing a wedding day brings me joy and fulfillment and I truly love being able to help couples on one of the most special days of their lives.

My project management background has taught me to work well under tight deadlines, pay attention to details, work with many different stakeholders, and coordinate many moving parts. Now I get to do this, but also explore the creative and beautiful design elements of an event. This is the exact combination of expertise you need on your wedding day!

In three words: Calm, Efficient, Organized

From the moment we started planning our wedding with Here It Blooms, Pauline's clear, professional, and organized communication style put us at ease. We went with The Bud package (30 days of planning). My main concern was coordinating and communicating with vendors the last 30 days and all of the day of coordination. I am a project manager so I thought I had everything set, but she was so helpful in highlighting the little things that we had forgotten to plan or think through, such as when do we want to have our first dance and parent dances, or how much to tip each vendor. Being able to rely on someone with industry knowledge alleviated a lot my stress. The detailed timeline she created was wonderful for our vendors and I didn't have to communicate with anyone. This allowed me to fully enjoy the day. Pauline and Priscilla's detailed work and smooth set-up ensured our reception space looked beautifully curated, with a perfect blend of DIY and venue-provided elements. Pauline even stayed an extra hour to carefully disassemble all the DIY items. Additionally, they made sure my husband and I had a private moment during cocktail hour to enjoy a sample of our hors d'oeuvres and signature cocktails - a thoughtful touch that provided a much-needed breather on our busy wedding day. The reassurance and value Here It Blooms provided was truly invaluable, and I would highly recommend them to any couple planning their special day.

Thank you for your kind words! I appreciated all of your organized inventory and loved that you had a binder for all wedding things :) Wishing you and Matt a lifetime of love and happiness!
3 Pauline!

Pauline was so wonderful to work with! We needed a DOC that was last minute and less involved in the planning since we already had things locked in. Pauline was able to work with us and created a smaller package that was in our budget, and was very prepared for our special day!! :)
She does it all!

Working with Pauline was incredible! I am a busy medical resident and would not have been able to make the wedding of my dreams happen without her! I hired her as a day-of coordinator, but she helped with so much more. She was extremely organized and was available and flexible to have several check ins to keep me on track in the months leading up to our big day. I still didn't have hair and makeup or transportation booked 3 months out (lol) and she found amazing vendors for me who were available last minute. She was also just so fun to work with! She handled all the communication and coordination with our vendors the weeks leading up to the wedding and during our big day and everything was totally smooth so that we could just enjoy the day without worrying about any details! Everything went perfectly!
