Having a day-of wedding coordinator was a MUST for us — and Robyn and Jessica from Red Letter were exactly who we were looking for. I chose to plan all aspects of our wedding — from the center pieces to the weekend schedule. That being said, we wanted our guests to enjoy our wedding, not feel obligated to help reset the room for our reception or run our errands. I met with Robyn 3 months before our wedding and instantly felt comfortable with her. She listened, took notes and fully understood how I(we) envisioned our wedding going. Because we live in Seattle and were getting married at Schweitzer Mountain(in North Idaho), we were limited to the number of visits we could make to our venue, even though we had been there several times. Robyn went ABOVEANDBEYOND for us. Visiting the venue with us for a walk through, then her own visit a week before our wedding to make sure things were coming together. She kept tabs on our vendors. She played the bad guy if someone wasn’t doing what they needed to be doing. And she did it with such professionalism — honestly I wish I could have paid her in single dollar bills and with each one included a reason both her and Jessica are amazing. I’m not even to day of wedding execution! Have you ever been to a wedding where the bride and her bridesmaids are frantically trying to set tables or troubleshoot last minute issues? I woke up on the day of my wedding, cried happy tears and spent the morning giggling and drinking champagne with my favorite people. Jessica picked up some décor from our room and checked on me. Robyn stopped by to tell me everything was going as planned. There was not one moment that I doubted them. Our wedding went off without a hitch — or if there was one, I certainly wasn’t aware of it. They set our reception room so beautifully, it was as if I did it myself. For someone as detail-oriented as myself, I never though I would relinquish control, and yet Team Red Letter put me at ease.

Robyn and her team were worth every penny. I booked her for day of coordination for my recent wedding. I interviewed a number of day of coordinators and she was the only person that I truly felt comfortable with. I felt that a lot of other coordinators look at day of coordination as «beneath them» or a waste of time or they were just using me for their marketing materials. We had a very elegant wedding at a unique venue in Chicago so I knew I needed someone that had their act together. Robyn has been in the business for a long time and has more than enough credentials, in wedding planning! She not only loves her job but cares so deeply about the couple and their families. She really proved to be a liaison between me and the families when the going got tough with planning. She checked and double checked all of my work, confirmed everything with vendors, and thought of all the little details that I never would have… and she was only there for day of coordination! She came in about 2 – 3 months before for an initial meeting and created a list of to-dos. Then she re-engaged about 2 weeks before the wedding and was like white on rice to my vendors. She even came to my house the morning of the wedding(which wasn’t part of the plan) to say hello, wish me good luck, and give me a wedding present. Unbelievable. When I walked into my venue I was shocked. It was exactly how I pictured it. Perhaps it was that the florist did her part, the caterer put the right linens on the tables, or the lighting tech knew what he was doing… but I have to assume that Robyn had a large hand in bringing all of these vendors together to create my vision. I am one of the first of my friends to get married and I will definitely be recommending Robyn to them.

I absolutely could not have planned my daughter’s wedding without Red Letter Event Planning and Robyn Brun. We had a unique situation as my daughter was living out of the country for a year before the wedding. My daughter and I booked the place, caterer, photographer and florist before she left the country, but as the wedding date grew near, we felt we needed a day of coordinator. Robyn Skyped with my daughter since she was unavailable to meet face to face. That was just one example of how accommodating Robyn was to work with. Robyn started 3 months before the wedding and coordinated all of the vendors and worked with the rental company to insure a smooth day. We had a tented reception and believe me, tents are not easy to coordinate. Robyn took the lead and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. I would highly recommend Red Letter Event Planning and Robyn for any event.

Fantastic. Robyn was more than our Day of wedding planner. She was there for every detail that we asked her for and more. She picked up the goody bags for the out of town guests at our house to take to two different hotels. Her support of the bride, the mother of the bride and the entire bridal party was great! Just cannot say enough good things about Red Letter Event Planning, and Robyn and her assistant! THANKS

Robin was a great help for my wedding. Mine was a bit unusual being that I had it on a yacht. I didn’t worry about a thing on the day of the wedding. She contacted all of my vendors and really took my mind off of everything on the wedding day. She even picked up my cake for me because Vanille Patisserie didn’t deliver during as late as I needed them. I had three favors for guests and she made sure everyone got one. My family and friends all commented on how nice she was and how she fit in quite well. She also managed my music playlists beautifully. I would use Robin again. Unfortunately my photographers didn’t stick to my list of pictures, so we didn’t get many shots I put in our contract, but that’s not Robin’s fault.
