Melissa and her team went absolutely above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect, and it was! She is incredibly organized and knows how to connect and deal with all your vendors professionally. There is no way we could have had the wedding we did without Melissa’s planning, suggestions and organization. She should be the first planner you look at because you won’t need to look any further! Thank you Melissa for everything you and your team did for us and our guests!

Melissa is very professional in her job and takes the stress off the Wedding Party .Our wedding was set up exactly how we wanted and she most definitely has that Natural Touch.

Friendly, organized and very professional. Beautiful set ups and easy take downs. Makes sure the bride and groom have nothing to worry about.

Melissa did a fantastic job as our day of the wedding coordinator! Her day of decorating and coordination services made everything come together even better than I could have imagined (and believe me .. I spent far too much time trying to imagine what everything was going to look like at our private venue!! lol). Melissa's day-of package includes so much more than just day of support - help navigating rental pricing in the valley, a site visit to figure out how to best set up our venue, timeline development, mitigating vendor issues, etc. A very worthwhile investment!

I hired Melissa as a day of coordinator for my wedding in Peachland at Fitzpatrick Vineyard. She went above and beyond her job description and really had her act together the entire time. She took a lot of stress off me by helping me with vendors a month in advance of my wedding. I highly recommended Natural Touch Weddings and Events!

We had the most wonderful time working with Melissa to make our wedding so beautiful and special. Her team was nothing but professional and made my job as a bride so easy. Melissa was consistently in contact and made time to meet with us when we were able to fly into town. Being an out of town bride, Melissa was very helpful sussing out decor and staying in contact with our venue. I would recommend Melissa to everyone for their special day!

We recently had Melissa design and decorate our wedding. My friend used Melissa for her wedding, last year and I knew we needed her for ours. Her and her team did an amazing job. It was better then imagined. She caught table mistakes and had the venue fix them for the correct guest number. The entire process was stress free. She was prompt, full of ideas and even got us deals and discounts. I could have never had the wedding I did, without her. Thank you.

I brought Melissa in to help with day of coordination and we added on her designing package afterwards. I must say, I loved the way Melissa helps design weddings. It was so organized and all in one place. I could add things that I liked and she would go with the ideas and make it our own. She was quick to point out money saving ideas and even reused ceremony decor at reception. If she knew she couldn't handle something, she sourced it out and brought in a local she trusted to get the job done. She sourced all our decor and we even brought in our own DIY items, which she setup. The organization for day of was perfect. Her timeline was a work of art. She was so well organized and had her team well organized too. If there was anything that went wrong, we had no idea. She carried out the days event, perfectly. She worked so close with our MC, keeping him on track and making sure the timing was right. He also commented on how awesome she was. I highly recommend, Natural Touch Weddings.

Unfortunately we were quite disappointed by Melissa's decorating services. We arrived to find my family (the groom's family) seated at the back because the table numbers weren't put on the right tables. We had supplied tea lights, 80% were not turned on. A bunch of the table numbers were laying sideways on the tables because she 'couldnt figure out how to put them together properly' (it's the same design as almost every other table number on the market). We drove down to meet her in March and showed her how everything worked and fully decorated a table as a demonstration. We also supplied pictures and put together detailed notes for the decorating, which clearly were not read as many steps were missed. Overall, I'd describe the work as sloppy and pretty amateurish. A basic QA check should have caught the table numbers being on the wrong tables. We would not recommend using Natural Touch's decorating services at your wedding. Additional information to address the reply below: Half the table numbers fell down once guests sat down, so they definitely didn't look 'just as good' propped up against other things. The tea lights have a 100 hour battery life, so 5 hours doesn't matter, but even if they had been dull at least they would have been on. I get that you delegated that portion of your work to the servers, but you chose to do that (on your own, without our knowledge) and they didn't follow through. That's still on you, it was part of you responsibilities. The thing that makes us the angriest about this whole experience has been how all communication afterwards has been laced with you blaming others and justifying everything with 'but it still looked beautiful'. It wasn't what we asked for, and it might have looked great to you, but we were very disappointed. As a final note, the table numbers are very simple (image attached for context). There is no way you tried but 'couldn't figure it out', you just didn't try.

Melissa is very professional prompt and polite. I found her to go over and above in her duties .I also found her to be economically friendly which made our wedding headache free.
