I just want to thank you again for everything on my wedding day! As my mom said, “time has flown by” and looking back on my wedding day your hard work held everything together for my family. Unfortunately, as you knew, I had a horrible cold the day before my wedding and when I woke that day I panicked thinking, “How will I make it through this big day feeling like I can’t even move?” Well, your first phone call to check up on me put all my worries at ease.

You and Stephanie made sure I had all the medicine, cough drops and tea I needed to help get me through the day. I remember starting to feel better when my bridesmaids and I were getting ready and thinking it has to be the excitement. It sure was because after the ceremony and pictures all the cold symptoms set in again. Feeling worried again about how I would make it through the reception, you appeared to escort Scott and I to the cocktail hour. You asked how I was feeling and when I said not so hot, you took us to the sitting area outside of the ballroom to just relax before our reception introductions. You and Stephanie brought us h’orderves, wine for Scott and a little white teapot for me. I remember sitting there, relaxing and feeling so grateful to have you there. I think it’s just instinctive for you to know what your brides’ need.

Your professionalism, kindness and caring was apparent throughout our reception. I needed more Dayquil…you & Stephanie were there. I needed a refill for my teapot…you & Stephanie were there. My bustle broke when my husband stepped on it…you had the tools to fix it. Everything you said when we first met with you was true. You really did have a fix for everything and the best part is my wedding was absolutely perfect despite the horrible cold I had. When I look back on my wedding day, I don’t think about how sick I was…I think about what an amazing, fun day it was and without you there that would not have been possible.

So, to add to what my mom said…thank you Sharon for everything! You made my wedding flawless and I have wonderful memories to look back on always.

Sincerely,

Kate K. Doré-Sharrow

Sharon,
Time has flown by since Kate & Scott’s wedding day. I have been wanting to write to you and thank you for all your hard work, for the incredible job you and Stephanie did. I was so glad that Kate and I talked about having a wedding planner and to have found you in the way we did.

It was interesting when we had time to reflect on the day our words were, Thank God Sharon was there. How would we have done this without Sharon”. Honestly, the day was so perfect, without stress, and I could honestly say I did not worry about one thing. You were calm, professional, assertive, kind, and in control.One thing that amazed us was when we returned to our room you would not have known that the bride and bridesmaids were in our room preparing for this perfect day. All the gifts from the wedding and everything that needed to be cleared from the hall were neatly placed in our room.

When we talk about the wedding, how perfect it was, how much fun everyone had including the mother and father we remind ourselves that it would not have been the same without you. I can’t believe I thought we could do it without a wedding planner. My personality is to worry and I had no worries because I was able to feel your competence and confidence.
I have many friends who have children younger than Kate and I would recommend that a wedding planner is a must and I would recommend you without any hesitation. Thank you for what you do to make the most important day of a woman’s life so perfect.

Dear Sharon,
When Beth told us she was getting married in San Diego, I had a big lump in my throat – not only the beauty of San Diego and the love for it she has, but how in the world do you plan a wedding 3,000 miles across country? Then she told us of her plan to hire a wedding planner – what a blessing and furthermore that it was you!
What a “dreamy wedding”! Without doubt, your guidance and assistance gave way to Beth’s life long dream. Every little girl has her “dream wedding” that grows with her to womanhood. You captured her every desire and supplied her with vendors who were professional, diplomatic, extremely fair and very eager to meet her every expectation.
Sharon – you provided the perfection of every detail and made for the most memorable day for all those that love Beth and Jay. Thank you and your assistant for your expertise and carrying out the most beautiful wedding ever!
We will always remember you with fondness.
Most Sincerely,
Mother of the Bride – Anna Holland

From Sharon – To Anna
