Hiring Shana was one of the biggest blessings of our entire wedding journey. From our first consultation call, she stood out. She was warm, modern, and in tune with we cared about, yet carried herself with a professionalism and clarity that made us feel confident. She had a clear plan and process, and we knew we'd be in good hands. We brought Shana in after we had already started planning, and she jumped in seamlessly. She helped with vendor procurement, ongoing planning, facilitated the rehearsal, and acted as our full day-of coordinator. Throughout the entire process, I had lots of questions - big, small, aesthetic-related, and everything in between. She handled my constant stream of thoughts and clarifications with grace. What impressed us was her ability to keep us on track while also lightening our emotional load. She stepped in as a mediator with vendors, friends, and family when needed - removing stress and giving us space to breathe. As we got closer to the wedding date, our meetings with her became an essential part of my sanity. I always entered the calls stressed or overwhelmed and left feeling grounded and supported. Shana was amazing at brainstorming solutions, pivoting when something changed, and offering ideas and perspectives we hadn't thought of. She was calm, confident, resourceful, and a reliable sounding board. During the rehearsal and on the wedding day itself, she was dialed in. She picked up on my stress before I even said anything and took on the weight so I didn't have to. One example: she would check in with us from time to time, but if we were chatting with guests or another vendor, she intentionally waited off to the side (but in our peripheral) so we knew she had something important to inform us about but without intruding on our moment. Ironically, I was surprised how little I saw her on our wedding day - it wasn't because she wasn't present, but because she was everywhere, quietly handling every detail behind the scenes. She and her team ensured the day ran without a hitch (or at least kept anything stressful far away). Everything felt seamless from my perspective, and that is entirely thanks to her and her team. If you're considering hiring Shana, do it. She is professional, creative, reassuring, patient, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect. She allowed us to fully enjoy the entire process, and we'll forever be grateful.

I really don't know where to start. Shana really put her all into our special day and it really showed. From day one she was attentive and stern with us. She has this magical ability to really help make a vision come to life. She was able to ground us when we were feeling the high of engagement and while celebrating us, she kept us grounded. if something went wrong during our wedding, we didn't know about it because it was handled way before we ever would've known about it. 12/10 stars across the board! We love Shana and Joyous Occasions!

I was iffy about hiring a day of coordinator because I thought it was just an added expenses. Let me tell you, it is not! Shana went above and beyond every expectation! We hired her months before our wedding and she did a check in with us every single month to ensure we were on track with our planning and ordering items for the wedding and was responsive to any questions or concerns we had. I was stress free before, during, and after the wedding thanks to this amazing women! If you are on the fence about a wedding coordinator. Stop, hire Shana!
