I cannot say enough good things about Monica. She did the month-of coordination for our wedding, and without her, I'm pretty sure I would have gone completely insane. I'm mostly aware of what she did before the day - confirming vendors, coordinating who would go where when, setting up our timeline (invaluable!!!) - but I honestly couldn't tell you everything she did on the day. That's because I was just wandering blissfully around while she handled everything behind the scenes. As far as I knew, everything was just magically perfect. I'm so grateful to Monica for her calm, kind guiding hand through our day.

Monica was a planner for a wedding I photographed, and everything could not have been more perfect and organized. The day was on time and stress free. She's very easy to work with and I highly recommend her to any couples who are on the fence about hiring a wedding planner. DO IT! You'll be so glad you did!

Monica went above and beyond for our wedding. We can't recommend her enough. From doing all the set up and take down. Dealing with all our vendors on the day of the wedding. Monica made the day go by so easily. She is always professional and well prepared in all our meetings leading up to the wedding.

I'm a pretty organized person so jared and I weren't 100% sure that having a week-of wedding coordinator would be worth our money, but we decided to go with Monica to alleviate some of the stress on our family and bridal party on our wedding day so they could enjoy it without having to run around and help with last minute things. As the week before our wedding came, Monica became invaluable- keeping us on track, getting the itinerary made and changed countless times, and coordinating with all of the vendors. She drive around the city to do various pick-ups and drop-offs for us which I don't know what I would have done without, as I was busy with last minute things myself! On the day of, Monica took care of everything and the day went seamlessly- literally not a thing was out of place or went wrong. We are so so grateful that we made the decision to work with Monica because I think she was truly one of the most important parts in making our day flawless and as enjoyable for everyone as it was! Thank you so so much!!

Hiring Monica as our wedding planner was absolutely one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. She helped us with some last-minute fixes and even added thoughtful extra touches that coordinated with our theme and color scheme! We were so glad to have her ; we wouldn’t have known what to do without her there. Monica’s passion for weddings combined with her organization and attention to detail make her worth far more than the rates she charges. We would highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding; with Monica’s help, our wedding was the smoothly-run success we dreamt it could be!

We hired Picture Perfect Weddings & Events for month of coordination and day of wedding. My husband and I both agree that working with Monica was a great experience, we even received compliments from our guests and vendors on how pleasant it was to work with Monica. Despite rain on our wedding day, Monica created a romantic and intimate ceremony space inside our reception venue. Picture Perfect Wedding and Events customized our package for our needs and offered us resources and contacts to ensure our wedding day went smoothly. Working with Monica was an enjoyable process and we would strongly recommend her company.

My husband and I would not hesitate to recommend Monica. Monica was highly organized and engaged from the first meeting, and she was always flexible. We could trust her entirely to handle the logistics of our wedding and had a great time as a result. Monica was always responsive and exceeded our expectations in every way. If you want a great person on your team, definitely spend the money to hire Monica. You will not regret it.

Monica at Picture Perfect Weddings was such an amazing help in making our wedding day everything we wanted it to be. We would absolutely recommend Monica to any of our family or friends looking for a wedding coordinator. She had an amazing eye for the aesthetic that we wanted to achieve, and gave us excellent recommendations to bring the wedding we envisioned to life. She was so organized throughout the planning process and all the way up to the wedding day, which allowed me, my fiancé, and our parents to just enjoy the process and not stress about the little things. Even the one little hiccup we had in terms of getting the string lights hung up at our venue – Monica just dealt with it right away and before we even knew there was a problem she had a plan to fix it! Looking back on our wedding day, it was everything and more than we had hoped it would be, and we are so grateful to Monica and her team for making it happen! We would absolutely recommend Monica to any of our family or friends looking for a wedding coordinator.

We received one piece of advice from everyone that we spoke with after Rob and I got engaged - use a wedding coordinator. Monica from Picture Perfect Weddings was fantastic. I would now like to pass on this advice to anyone that is newly engaged and starting to plan their wedding. From the first day I spoke with Monica, I knew she was genuine and passionate about her job, and would be a perfect fit for us. Monica really listened to understand what we felt was important and what our expectations were for our wedding day - and she helped bring our big day to life. The couple weeks leading up to the wedding were stress free and so enjoyable. Monica was very encouraging with all of our suggestions and always provided helpful tips to meet our expectations for the day. Although we were not based in Calgary, she was very easy to work with and accommodating with meeting times and locations. Monica did such a wonderful job decorating and keeping everything moving along to allow us to enjoy the day with our friends and family. Working with Monica was the best decision we made! Thank you so much for all of your help leading up to and on the day of our wedding! Tennille & Rob

Monica did a phenomenal job helping us organize and plan our big day. She was extremely responsive and organized, which eased our wedding jitters immensely. Monica provided valued suggestions and advice regarding how to make our day run as smoothly as possible and was able to help with actually putting those suggestions into action. She was extremely organized in her communication with our other vendors and ensured that everything ran smoothly and on time. At our wedding she ensured that things ran on schedule and helped with many last minute details. Picture Perfect Events was able to work with our florist to ensure our wedding space looked as lovely as possible and utilized all of the provided decor beautifully. Monica truly alleviated our fears and worries surrounding our wedding and we were genuinely appreciative of all of her hard work and experience.

Monica thinks of every last detail which adds to a very organized, calm, efficient wedding. In the midst of chaos, Monica maintains a wonderful smile and personality and makes it all look easy. I appreciated the attention to budget and invoices were provided immediately for payment. Monica provides several options at various price points and actively looks to see if she can get you a better deal. I would highly recommend Monica as a wedding planner for any size wedding. We had several complex components including a helicopter and three days of catered events that Monica pulled off seamlessly.
