Great experience!
Hiring Justine as our “month of” coordinator was SUCH a phenomenal choice. I spent the the day of my wedding completely immersed with my friends, family, and husband. No one asked me a single question, Justine checked in with me to make sure I had everything I needed but she never intruded, I never saw her sweat, and I never knew anything was amiss. I only know that she put out about twelve metaphorical fires because my best friend spilled the secrets a few days later. Justine is diplomatic, serene, and a true professional. She won’t tell you what to do, but if you tell her what you want she will make your dreams come true.
Wonderful planner in the Kerhonkson area!
Mills Memories was a great addition to our wedding planning experience. Throughout the process, Justine demonstrated a thorough, clear, and accessible communication style that put me at ease. She was thoughtful, caring, and made me feel heard—going above and beyond to bring our vision to life. I was grateful for her support and flexibility—she truly seemed invested in making our special day the best it could be.
Response from vendor•Oct 22, 2025Michelle, I'm so happy that you and Tim were able to relax and fully enjoy your weekend. Your family and friends were lovely but you were the highlight of the day. It was truly a pleasure to work with my fellow vendors to help bring your vision to life. If you're ever back in the area, let me know - it's hiking season! Congratulations, again!Couldn’t have done it without her!
My wife and I had many dreams of DIYing and doing things ourselves. Our venue added a clause that we needed a day of coordinator so we went on a search hoping to just meet the new venue requirement. Little did we know that we were going to stumble upon one of the biggest blessings we had while planning our wedding. Justine, head contact at mills memories, was a life saver from the very first meeting! Extremely relatable and took the time to get to know us and immediately started to help our dreams come true. I quickly realized I was in over my head and was so grateful we hired someone with experience and professionalism. Justine made sure we had a timeline that was seamless, assisted me questions for my other vendors and came up with many solutions when things came up. The title day of coordinator did not fit Justine; she assisted well beyond that! The day of our wedding we didn’t worry about a thing! We couldn’t recommend her services enough! 10/10
Response from vendor•Oct 22, 2025Margaret!!! You and Amira were the most warming couple. You two are officially my sisters and I'm so glad that I was able to bring some comfort and happy memories to your day. It was a joy to hold both of your dads' hand and talk with them before they went to walk you two down the aisle. They stood there in tears and that is a moment I will never forget. Thank you for bringing me along on your journey. I wish you two many many years to come!Above & Beyond from Beginning to End!
We absolutely LOVED working with Justine at Mills Memories for our special day! Justine went above and beyond at every step of the way for us. We knew we needed a coordinator for the day of, but Justine met with us about once a month for almost a full year leading up to the wedding. She made sure we were staying on track with all the to-dos and even provided a checklist for us to work through. The week of the wedding she was on top of everything. All of our other vendors sang her praises and we can confirm, working with Justine made our whole wedding day so much smoother. She also came to our rehearsal which was a huge help, not only because it was great that she knew how everything at the church should go on the day of, but also because I had a wardrobe malfunction and she was there to help my matron of honor sew me into my rehearsal dinner dress. To top it all off, when we were going through the cards from our wedding night, we found the sweetest card from Justine, which was such a beautifully kind gesture. We are so grateful for all the hard work and dedication that Justine put into our wedding day and we can’t recommend her enough!
Response from vendor•Oct 12, 2025Mayela, your words mean the world to me; thank you so much! It was such a joy walking alongside you both through the planning process and seeing everything come together so beautifully. Your day was filled with so much love and intention, and I’m so grateful I got to be a part of it (and help with that little dress emergency too 😉). You put together an amazing team behind the scenes. I couldn’t have done it without them. Wishing you both a lifetime of laughter, joy, and sweet memories!
