Wedding: 9/24/11
Monique from A Signature Wedding was the best gift my husband and I could have given ourselves on our wedding. She always went above and beyond of what was expected. All of the vendors that she recommended were very professional and reasonably priced. All of Monique's recommendations were the best! She really understood our vision to our wedding and she made it even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. She was there for anything that we needed help with and she felt more like a friend helping me plan our wedding because of her enthusiasm and excitement for every aspect of the wedding planning. Planning a wedding becomes very stressful but Monique extremely detailed, organized, and educated about the industry so I always felt excited and relaxed that everything was going to be okay.
The day of the wedding, I was so calm and relaxed because I knew and trusted Monique had everything taken care of at the reception hall and I had nothing to worry about. Monique and her assistants were very professional and had every little detail in place and perfect. Countless guests continue to tell us that they have never been to such a beautiful wedding and that it is the wedding of the year. This is due to all of Monique’s time, energy and hard work she spent with me planning the most special day of our lives. I would recommend her to everyone I know. We had our dream “Signature Wedding” and it was due to Monique's hard work.

Monique Atwell from ASignatureWedding made our dream day so perfect. It was such a blessing to have had her as our coordinator. With the help of her very organized team, our wedding day went off without a hitch and everything moved along seamlessly. We had such a wonderful time, we wish we could do it all over again. From the day we first met her, until the end of the reception, her planning, organizational skills, her attention to detail and her professionalism were absolutely amazing. She really understood our vision for our big day and executed it even better than we could have ever imagined. Our day would not have been the same without the thought, caring, time and energy put in by her and we are forever grateful to have had the chance to work with her. Even after many weeks later, guests were still talking about the wedding being the wedding of the year! Monique is an absolute dream to work with and we definitely cannot recommend her enough!

We hired A Signature Wedding a few months before our wedding,( as our month-of-coordinator), and she stepped in and help us with things that we were struggling with months before the wedding!! Monique is extremely organized and professional.
We haven't even gotten married yet (this week) and Monique has impressed me so much, that I had to write this review now!
A series of the perfect storm of not so good events kept happening leading up to the wedding (with work, family, and vendors etc...). What could have turned out to be a complete nightmare has turned out well and under control. I credit Monique. She is very calming problem solver! A great combination for a stressed-out bride!
She sensed the added stress that we were under the last two weeks and took on projects that weren't in her scope of work to ease our stress. This was so helpful and I am truly grateful to her!
To all brides out there: a day-of -coordinator is well worth the money, period. For all Monique did for us, my fiancée and I feel she deserved more than what she charged.
In addition to that, she will just about pay for herself. She negotiated many of our vendors down. This was just a great added bonus to her already five star services!
EDIT
I am disappointed with the my wedding day. Their was a lot of decorations that her and her staff was responsible for that wasn't executed the way we asked. We did have a lot up set up, however, we were told that they could handle it.
I had votives with sea glass and floating candles to be put on the belly bars outside and they just put the candles on the sea glass without water. The wax melted all over the sea glass. It was not the look I was going for.
I also bought a lot of votives with candles to go outside (to create a romantic glow) and they were never put outside. The hanging lanterns weren't lit etc... Disappointing when you put a lot of time into planning the all the details.
We spent a lot of time on our programs and asked them to place them on each chair. They were in a pile off to the side where at least 75% of our guest didn't even see them.
Overall she still did a very good job. She was excellent leading up to the wedding. She did a great job with all the vendors and organizing the event. I just would not recommend having them take on a lot of set up/decorations.

While planning for our wedding, we interviewed and were disappointed by many wedding planners. Yet when we were finally introduced to Monique, it was obvious that she was worlds above the rest. Throughout the planning, she was organized, attentive, and full of incredible ideas. And then on the wedding day, she just blew us away. She seamlessly ran the wedding, and my husband and I did not have to worry about a thing...and most importantly, with Monique involved, we did not worry about a thing. I can honestly say that our wedding didn't have a single hiccup, and I credit Monique. Her professionalism and attention to detail are truly impressive, and she will always have a special place in our memories of the best day of our lives. Thank you, Monique!

Since we met Monique from Signature Wedding, we felt she was the wedding planner we needed to make our dream wedding a reality.
She was not only very professional but truly care about our event and got to know us in the process.
She has a extensive list of providers and she is also aware of every little detail to make everything perfect.
We changed our venue 2 months before the wedding and thanks to her it was an easy transition and she was also to negociate an unbelieable price.
Monique and her team made our wedding day an amazing experience. Every thing turned out to be just perfect. She simply took control of the event and we were able to enjoy it.

I can not say enough about A Signature Wedding & Monique Atwell. I received exceptional and personal service. A Signature Wedding far exceeded my expectations on all levels of quality service. Once again, words alone can not describe how thrilled I was about the whole experience. I would highly recommend A Signature Wedding.

Monique was amazing. She was able to solve every issue that occured most before they ever occured. I could not imagine having a wedding without using her. She was worth twice what we paid. I wish she could plan my whole life.

To have Monique and her A Signature Wedding staff and professionalism at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. I had over 600 people at my reception, which consisted of out-of-towners and non-English speaking guests. Monique handled everything with the absolute utmost finesse and professionalism. As a bride, you want the day to be perfect and everything went perfectly with Monique there for us. It is an extremely stressful day and Monique was so calm, collected, confident, and competent. She carried all the stress and handled all the mishaps and I knew none the better, all I had to do was enjoy the day and she made it so we could do so. She took care of absolutely everything. She is a master at multi-tasking. She is truly incredible and I can't say enough fantastic things about her. Both my husband and I are in love with her. I would highly recommend her for your wedding event. You will see when you meet her, you will love her and feel instantly at peace because you know your special day will be in the best care.
