I unfortunately cannot recommend this vendor. Lots of no shows to meetings up to one month before the wedding and it caused more stress than it was worth.
AMAZING!!
Hiring Ms. Gayla and her team as our day-of wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! From the moment they arrived, they handled every detail with professionalism, calmness, and expertise, allowing us to truly enjoy the day without stress. They worked seamlessly behind the scenes, ensuring that every transition—from getting ready to the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception—flowed effortlessly. They kept everything on schedule, coordinated with our vendors, and were always a step ahead in problem-solving. Whether it was making sure we had everything we needed, checking in with our bridal party, or handling last-minute details, their presence was invaluable. Our wedding day ran so smoothly, and we owe so much of that to Ms. Gayla and her assistant . If you’re looking for someone who is organized, professional, and truly dedicated to making your day stress-free, we highly recommend them!

Ms Gayla and her team were amazing. They handled the setup, timeline and cleanup at our venue. I did not have to do nothing at all. I really felt like a guest at my own wedding. I would highly recommend Ms Gayla for all your wedding plans. 10 across the board. Thank you again!"

EWEP did a phenomenal job for me and exceeded my expectations. They are reasonably priced which helped me stay within my budget. I will be working with them again in the future.
