“Misti, I just wanted to thank you for everything, and as you probably noticed, I was not a fan of getting a wedding planner or all the meetings I attended. However, as the day got closer and I saw everything come together, I realized that we did need you! And that you are truly amazing and the best at what you do. I can not thank you enough for transforming our venue to exactly what my wife wanted, we wouldn’t have been able to do that without you. So thank you for everything that you did! You are amazing and we appreciate everything! Loren Cullum - Groom

We worked with Misti for day of coordination services for our wedding and could not be more thankful that we did. We had the perfect day thanks to the hard work by her and her team. Everything went smoothly and we were able to relax and just enjoy our special day. Misti is such a sweet individual and has the most contagious laugh, which quickly puts you at ease and makes you smile too. As my husband stated on our day, "hiring LBD was worth every penny".

I was married June 30, 2012, Little Black Dress Events was our wedding coordinator. I had just moved to Parkersburg and had no idea where to begin to start for planning this wedding. I was online looking up wedding coordinators and found them, I met with Misti and knew she was perfect for us. Whether it was a small question or a major one she was there to listen or find out the answer for me, no matter how difficult it was. She was extremely personable and was not just a coordinator but seemed like family. Throughout the wedding process my brothers wife was pregnant, when she had my niece Misti called my mother to congratulate her on becoming a grandmother. Not many people would have done this, it truly ment a lot to us and made us feel not just like clients but friends. The night of my rehearsal the giant storm hit that knocked out power for weeks. So when we woke up the day of our wedding we still didn’t have power. I can honestly say I did not cry or freak out, I was positive Misti would make it wonderful. I went through a day that I don’t know if I could have gone through without her. I was told by a certain time the food would be thrown out but I was ok with that I was marrying my best friend and Misti said that’s all that matters. I didn’t have the best of phone service so we were texting and calling each other all day, the last time I spoke to her before seeing her she said don’t worry I will figure something out. Misti had noticed the building across the street had a Pepsi machine and it was lit up! Little Black Dress Events had to move the entire wedding that they had spent putting together the day before across the street in less then 3 hours. She was determined to have my reception, I think most people would have given up, but she didn’t, she did everything in her power.

My husband & I knew the moment we met with Misti that she was just what we needed for our destination wedding. I can not say enough wonderful things about Misti, she is a joy to work with & to be around...her laugh is contagious. Most importantly Misti listened to our vision for our perfect wedding, communicated with each vendor for us during the entire process & she even traveled down a few days early to personally meet with our vendors to make sure every detail was tied up. Misti nailed every detail of our wedding, it was magical...just like I had always dreamed of it being since I was a little girl. I don’t know how she does it, but she is incredible. My husband & I would HIGHLY suggest Misti & Little Black Dress Events to EVERYONE getting married...having Misti be a part of our wedding really made our day flawelss & all of our guests still compliment us, saying they “felt like they were at a celebrity wedding.” If you are getting married Misti is a MUST! We can not thank you enough!!!!

Misti put us at ease on our wedding day. She handled everything, including meetings before the big day that we were unable to attend because we live out of state. I would highly recommend LBD for your wedding! No question. She’s a rock star!

Hiring Misti was the best decision we made when planning our wedding. Her organizational skills and strong vendor relationships not only kept us stress free, but also let us enjoy every step of the planning process. We would highly recommend Little Black Dress to any newlyweds!

I have been working closely with Misti for over 10 years, and plan to be working closely with her for many years to come. We have worked events and weddings of varying size, and she places as much emphasis on attention to detail for her smaller events as she does for her very large events. Misti has not made event design and planning her career because she had to, she has chosen this profession because it is truly her passion, and that is exemplified in the beautiful and elegant events that she creates. I have sat in many meetings with her and have personally watched her as she listened closely to her clients desires and dreams, and I have seen first hand how she (and her team) turns those dreams into a reality. If you want an elegant, stylish wedding without any of the headache, Misti is the only planner I would recommend to you. If I were marrying all over again, I would hire her without hesitation.

My name is Lindsey and I own Yours Truly Invitations located in Parkersburg, WV. When I find out a client I am working with is using Little Black Dress as their coordinator I am thrilled. If Misti is involved in the planning I know that everything will be smooth, the right questions will be asked and the bride and groom will get exactly what they need to make their day exactly what they want it to be. I have seen many of Mists events and been involved in quite a few of them over the past couple years since I started working with Misti – each wedding is so different because Misti really listens to each Couple and helps them achieve their goals. I would highly recommend Little Black Dress to any Bride – she is THE BEST wedding planner in the area “hands down”.

Misti,
I've been putting this off because I don't really know where to start. I think about our wedding day, on a daily basis. I replay moments in my head and often think about how that moment came to be. The months and months of planning that went into such the perfect day.....it was all so worth it. ...

I don't think I have the words to really tell you how blessed I feel to have worked with you and Little Black Dress. You and your company truly made all of my wedding dreams come true! From the first meeting over coffee until the moment you "tucked" us into our suite, you had our backs. Knowing you have someone on your side while planning one of the biggest days in your life is so incredibly comforting.

Thank you for listening, uttering those words, "do you want to know what I think?" at just the right moment, and for being a friend on those cloudy days. Even more importantly, thank you for taking care of our families, as we were all on this magical, crazy journey. Thank you for building my dream team and giving us the best weekend ever. Misti, you're a rockstar and I couldn't be more grateful that we crossed paths.

You need Misti in your life! I am so thankful that our paths crossed and that I had Misti and LBD throughout my wedding planning process. Not only is she a very calming presence during a very stressful time, she also has years of experience and an answer to every questions. I can honestly say that I had full confidence that if anything went wrong Misti would take care of it. It was such a blessing to be able just enjoy the day. As my husband said “the only downside is that we can’t have another wedding so that we can hang out with Misti again”. She feels more like a close friend than a wedding planner!

You are THE BEST Misti, and we can’t thank you enough for all you did for us.
