Best money you’ll spend for your wedding

Listen you may think “what do I need a day of coordinator for”… that was my husbands thought process too — until he saw Maleila on the day of & everything she handled. My husband said to me “Wow, I actually don’t know what we would’ve done without her” and you know it’s major if a guy notices lol!

Maleila is absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish. She takes care of everything so effortlessly, leaving the bride and groom to actually enjoy their day!

We can’t thank you enough 😉

The best money we spent at our wedding!!!

Maleila was absolutely amazing. I cannot thank her enough. My husband was wary about hiring a day of and is a very very hard man to impress. But when I say he could not stop raving about them to everyone who would listen. Once I dropped off those decor items I felt such a weight lifted knowing you had it covered! Even the take over of the emails and scheduling was the most smooth transition. She made our day that much better and we love her!!! Thank you so much 🥰🥰 we will never stop raving!!

A wedding must!

The DOWC team did a fantastic job with our wedding!

We couldn't have asked for a better day-of coordinator than Chantelle! She made our wedding day seamless and allowed my husband and me to fully enjoy every moment without a single worry.

Chantelle was incredible with everyone—our parents, bridal party, and even our guests quickly came to rely on her as the go-to person for anything and everything. She handled all the details, from the smallest touches to the bigger logistics, ensuring everything was exactly as we envisioned. Her organization and dedication kept the day low-stress and running smoothly.

If you’re on the fence about hiring a coordinator, trust me, it’s one of the best investments you’ll make for your wedding. Thank you, Chantelle, for making our day unforgettable!

The Best Wedding Decision I Made

Like the title says, this was absolutely the best wedding decision I made. I was a DIY bride with so many projects and having a real struggle with my chosen venue. Chantelle asked all the right questions s to keep me on track and co-ordinated with my vendors to really take the tension down. In addition, her and her team did such a beautiful job executing my decor, I truly could not have asked for. Better experience. I tell everyone they were the best money I spent and I cannot imagine how I would have made it through without! 100/10

Best decision I made for our wedding

Hiring DOWC was the best decision we made for our wedding! Chantelle was our planner and she was AMAZING. I don’t think I would have enjoyed our wedding nearly as much as I did if she wasn’t there. Highly recommend using DOWC for your big day - you will not regret it!!!

Highly, Highly Recommended!

Our experience with Maleila was nothing short of outstanding - from our first meeting, to our check-ins, to the site visit, to the day of our wedding, she made us feel at ease. Maleila and her team are highly organized, and their attention to detail is second to none; the planning materials were super helpful in planning the logistics of our wedding day. They made sure that the vision we had for our big day came to fruition, and we can't thank them enough!

Maleila, you are awesome! We would not hesitate to highly recommend you and your team for those couples who are looking for a coordinator that really cares about what you want your day to be, and will work super hard to make that happen. Our day would not have been near as wonderful without you. You are absolutely lovely, thank you so much!

Great experience with Mel + Chantelle

We have nothing but great things to say about working with DOWC and particularly our main day of coordinator Mel and her assistant Chantelle. Mel is very professional, organized, very friendly and lovely to chat with. She was very responsive to emails, kept us on track leading up to the day, and provided us with lots of experienced advice. Prior to us, she has not worked at our venue (Royal Canadian Yacht Club) but she was a pro in the venue walk through and knew all the right questions to ask. Our day could not have run more smoothly thanks to Mel and Chantelle running the show! We would easily recommend DOWC and Mel + Chantelle as a day of coordinator.

Mel quite literally saved my life!!!

This was one of the best things I did for our wedding, was hiring this team for our day of coordinator. We were lucky enough to have Mel who's attention to detail and organization matched mine to a T. I was so lucky to have her, helping me with small details and decisions, and making sure things ran smoothly. I am so thankful and would highly highly recommend!!!!
