What It’s like to work with us
Simply put, Allie is a rockstar (as is the rest of the Polka Dot team). It’s no surprise that planning, re-planning, and re-planning (again) a wedding in the middle of a pandemic is a challenge. Hiring Polkadot made navigating these challenges, and pulling it off, so much easier. If you’re questioning whether you need a planner, the answer is yes. And if you’re questioning what planner to hire, the answer is a resounding “Polka Dot.”
“As working professionals with limited time on our hands, we really appreciated her straightforward, organized, and timely approach to everything. When I requested changes it was never a problem for her, and she would often creatively make things happen when we'd hit any bumps in the road. Planning 2 intercultural events over a weekend in NYC with 120 international guests is no small feat, but Tracey pulled it all off seamlessly and in fact was a pleasure to work with. Our wedding was the best weekend ever not only for us but for all our friends and family too. THANK YOU!”
“From the moment I reached out to Polka Dot Events, my blood pressure dropped back down to a healthy level. My husband and I were overwhelmed with the nuances of planning a multi-day wedding for over 250 people while both in our respective residency programs…She kept my husband and I organized during the weeks approaching our wedding, helping us solve any hiccups that came our way and fixing potential problems we hadn't even realized were possible before they happened. She streamlined our remaining tasks and designed our wedding weekend timelines so that we could get the most out of each portion of our wedding…
“I couldn't believe we got what we did for what we paid. Even though it was technically partial planning services, it felt like Allie and Tracey fully dedicated themselves to our wedding. They have an uncanny ability to be both creative visionaries but also in the details and always bring helpful suggestions to the table - be it vendors based on preferences or details based on budget. And more than that, they are both extremely professional, but also fun to be around! We honestly couldn't have done it without them.”
“By far the best money we spent on the whole wedding weekend. Not only did she take phone calls with us before our month-of coordination began, once we were in the final month she was quick to answer questions and swoop in to take over any remaining planning activities. Outside of being an organized project manager, she was always calm and fun to work with…I'm pretty sure with their expertise, Polka Dot pays for itself. In the last month, Allie steered us to make educated decisions as we were adding final touches to our weekend…
