One of the big pieces of advice my husband and I first received from married friends was to hire a wedding planner/coordinator and we are SO happy we went with the Merry by Mia team for our May 2024 wedding at Audrey’s Farmhouse! Mia and her team are top-notch, and are incredibly knowledgeable about our venue, to boot! While Merry by Mia bill themselves as “day-of coordinators”, their support really started months before our wedding. From the moment we jumped on our first call with Mia, we knew her team was right for us. She was so warm and excited for us, and was willing to answer any questions we had via phone call, email, and over “office hours” that she hosts on weekends for any couple her team is supporting - even if their “day-of” services haven’t technically started yet. When we weren’t sure about our wedding timeline for the day of, Mia sent us a sample timeline from another May wedding her team had coordinated at our same venue from a previous year. When we had questions about our officiant’s script, Mia sent us the skeleton script she had used when she officiated a wedding, complete with sentence starters for different vows. When we were struggling to find HMU artists who worked with diverse wedding parties, Mia sent us suggestions - one of which we booked and were so so happy with! When we were debating what late-night food to get our guests, Mia said she still dreamed of the Audrey’s team’s chicken fingers…and so of course we went with the chicken fingers - and guess what our guests still talk about?! These are just some of the many examples of how much we really relied on Mia’s expertise and support in the months leading up to the wedding, and how she continually went above and beyond. When it came to our actual wedding coordination, Mia let us know that she wouldn’t be available, and so we’d be working with her colleague Sara, who had actually coordinated Mia’s own wedding. Sara, too, was incredible. From about three months out from the wedding, Sara was in constant contact with us about upcoming vendor deadlines, helping us organize our final timeline, floor plans, and vendor COIs. She liaised with our venue when we had additional questions, and sent us resources for all sorts of things, from figuring out how to get our officiant (a family member) ordained to locating websites where we could generate wedding crosswords for free. Sara assisted us both on the rehearsal night, making sure things went smoothly, and the wedding day. She immediately connected with my family when we arrived, putting my parents at ease, and was wonderfully calm, steady, and supportive on the day of the wedding, from helping set up our tables and making sure all signage was placed appropriately, to helping me get a pollen stain out of my wedding dress with stain remover from her all-encompassing emergency kit, to arranging for an extra seat for a surprise guest who showed up, to getting band-aids and my husband’s and my dancing shoes (Nike Dunks) to us during dinner after my husband developed a blister from his loafers, to packing our decor back up at the end of the night. Mia and Sara had assured us that on the day of the wedding, all the planning we’d done together would pay off and we wouldn’t have to stress about a thing - and I can say our wedding was truly stress-free. Both Mia and Sara ended up feeling like friends by the end of this process, and I am so so glad we put our wedding in their hands.

My wife and I used Merry for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with the service. Her coordinator Sara was everything Mia promised us and more! She worked seamlessly with all the outside vendors and venue staff. I would highly recommend MerrybyMia to anyone who wants to ensure their wedding day is what they envision!

Merry by Mia was an exceptional day of coordination team that we absolutely loved working with. Their communication style was clear, effective, detailed, and highly organized throughout the entire process leading up to and throughout the day of our wedding. The quality of their work was truly outstanding- they were incredibly reliable, proactive, and detail-oriented, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding day went off without a hitch. They were there to think of all the things we didn't know to think of, truly serving as the set of eyes and ears of the day so that our loved ones could simply enjoy and soak in the day instead of worrying about logistical details. We cannot recommend Merry by Mia more and feel so grateful to have had them be such a special part of our wedding day!
Merry by Mia is a MUST

My husband and I knew we needed a day of coordinator because on our wedding day he wanted me to finally check out and relax! As someone who is very type a, I didn't want to not enjoy my actual wedding because I was so focused on details. Like most venues we had a Bridal Attendant who was great, but I can't speak enough about how a day of coordinator is so necessary. There really were so many moving parts that day and Mia took care of all of it. Her involvement allowed my mom and mother in law to be able to actually have fun. It was great to see! Leaving the pressure of getting things right on the day of to Mia and her team was the best decision I made! She was actually the first vendor we hired. It was truly a non negotiable for us! We chose Mia because she was able to really walk us through the entire process and answer all of the questions we had with the least amount of fluff! When we hired Merry we decided to pay a little extra for a second on site coordinator and that ended up being a great choice! Her team worked directly with our venue to make sure everything was where it needed to be and when it needed to be there. I was also able to assign someone to my husband and the groomsmen so that they felt special and taken care of! We even had one small thing that came up that because of the conversations we had she knew exactly what to do. It was super windy on the day of and our ceremony was in a tent that was supposed to be open to the water views. The venue ultimately left them open but she made an executive decision (found me quickly to re-confirm) to close the panels/curtains and it saved our guests from freezing and not being able to actually hear the ceremony. She also made sure that all of the things we really cared about (pictures, moments etc) were captured! We'd hire Merry by Mia a thousand times over!
