I cannot say enough good things about Erin. I met her the Bridal Bazaar and we instantly had a connection. She got me from the get go and what my husband and I envisioned for our day.When we first started planning I was across the country, which wasn't an issue for Erin. She was always available via email and we had Skype chats so I could share info with her. She provided me with a great list of vendors for the ones we still needed and I was super pleased with all of them.Month of, Erin took care of EVERYTHING! I was so happy to know I had her in my corner. She met with me before the wedding to get everything from me, so it saved my mom and I trucking them around. Our day was absolutely perfect and beautiful and I know its because of all of Erin's help.

Erin Melton of Behind the Bride was absolutely amazing. We couldn't thank her enough for all the work she did to make our wedding everything we dreamed it would be. When I first met her, I immediately felt like she was a close friend - she saw eye to eye with me and understood all of my concerns and made me feel at ease. She has such a friendly demeanor yet she will do everything it takes to make sure you get what you want from your vendors. She was able to work with our crazy schedule being an out of town couple by having (2 hour!) Skype meetings and several in-person meetings on the weekends whenever we needed. On our wedding day, she had an eye like a hawk. I didn't have to worry or hesitate about anything because she was already there taking care of it - anticipating and jumping into action on any potentially sticky situation, so that I could continue enjoying the night. We had a pretty tight timeline, so Erin was good about checking in with us to remind us when we needed to cut the cake, toss the bouquet, do our first dance, etc. At the end of the night, she had all our decor, gifts and personal items nicely boxed up and in our car ready to go. Erin made our wedding so stress-free and we can't thank her enough! She deserves every Wedding vendor award out there! :)

Erin is absolutely wonderful! During the whole planning process, she was my sounding board. Every thought I'd send at her, she had ideas for how to make the thought a reality. It was so helpful. Day of, I felt so much more relaxed because I trusted that anything that came up, Erin would handle. On the day of my wedding it rained. Erin had to make last minute calls on the arrangement of the tables and the location of the ceremony. She made it work even better than what I had planned. And during all of this, I was free to get my hair and makeup done and know that it was all under control. The piece of mind is so worth it!

Erin is very professional and supportive. She was great at easing the stress of a busy bride. Our wedding was flawless and we got tons of compliments. It flowed beautifully and that we owe to Erin. She got everyone on a timeline--wedding party, vendors, etc. The coordination was great and knowing she was "behind" me was super comforting. I would recommend her to any bride.

You will not find a better wedding coordinator! Erin is highly organized, professional, knowledgeable and made our wedding day run smoothly. She went over and beyond the call of duty by meeting me the night before, rather late, to pick up last minute decorations. On my wedding day, I did not worry about anything because she took care of everything.

My wife and I had an Indian/Jewish wedding and it was definitely out of the ordinary! Erin was our week-of coordinator and did an absolutely fantastic job. We had over a dozen vendors (if not two dozen!), from two celebrants, a horse, florist, DJs, multiple caterers, multiple sites, etc, etc etc. Our timeline was crazy as well, with over 13 hours of total coverage, everything down to the minute was executed perfectly by Erin and her team. She's great to work with, handles stress very well and has an excellent attitude. Our wedding would not have been a success without Behind the Bride. We highly recommend Erin and her team to anyone searching for a high level of professionalism and precision for their wedding planning needs!!

I could not have asked for anyone better than Eric from Behind the Bride. She listened, understood what I wanted and helped me to find it. She saved me a ton of time and money in being able to identify vendors that best fit my needs. The wedding went off flawlessly. All of the vendors Erin recommended did their jobs beautifully. I really had the most perfect wedding and I know I have Erin to thank for ensuring that I got that.

The only thing I wish I would've had was a more detailed timeline for what I needed to do. Meaning, what time I needed to start getting dressed, what time I should be dressed by, and make up/hair done, etc. I didn't ask for it, but I didn't know I needed it. All the sudden someone just came in and said, 'Why aren't you dressed yet?' In other words, I wish Erin had a third arm. But in the long run, I'd glad she was doing what she was doing, and that was making sure everything else I didn't have control over was being taken care of. If I could give Erin a 6th star above, I would. The best thing about her was her professionalism. She always made us feel like we were her only clients. She never gave excuses or talked about other things she had to do. She gave us her full attention and helped us with each and every question we had. She was our BEST asset during the wedding day and we were so lucky to have her as our planner/coordinator.

Excellent service!! I am so happy we decided to use Behind the Bride as our wedding coordinator. We chose to use the week of services, which was way more help than just the week of! Erin was so helpful in everything. She always had time to talk and always had a good solution to any question I may have had. Our wedding flowed nice and smooth because of her. She was not pushy in anyway either! I would recommend this service to all of the brides out there! Honestly, I don't know what we would have done without the awesome help!

Erin did a wonderful job with our wedding! She went above and beyond the call of duty. Her bright and cheerful personality really helped put my mind at ease. She had an answer to every question we had, great suggestions for things and really helped us think of things we never would have on our own. She stayed on top of all the other vendors and made sure everyone was on the same page. The day of, Erin and her assistant Jen made sure everything was perfect and in place. We couldn't have asked for anything more. I am greatful to Erin for helping to make our special day perfect! I would HIGHLY recommend Behind the Bride to anyone.

I wish I could rate higher than a 5 for Erin and Behind the Bride!Erin was beyond magnificent! I felt total support from the minute I hired her. She was quick to respond and helpful with her answers with any questions I had. On my wedding day I feel like she must have cloned herself. She was everywhere and doing everything, so that I could remain present and focused on having the time of my life. If anything went wrong day of, I never knew! She had EVERYTHING handled flawlessly. Weeks later I still have friends and family commenting on how fantastic my planner was. I would recommend Behind the Bride to anyone and everyone! Erin is INVALUABLE! She truly made my wedding planning experience and my wedding day better than I could have ever dreamed.

Erin was FABULOUS!! She was extremely thorough, from the very first meeting until the end of the wedding. She was very friendly and warm, and everyone involved in the wedding who met her had only nice things to say. If it weren't for her, my wedding could have turned into a bit of a mess! I would highly, highly recommend her.

Erin with Behind the Bride is the absolute best in town!! She was creative and energetic! You won't find a better wedding coordinator! She had amazing ideas and such simple solutions to what I thought was impossible tasks! Erin was such a calming and reassuring person to be around as the days rapidly approach to your "big day"! Her timeline for the day went amazing she kept people moving without the "rushed" feeling and she truly made sure myself and my new husband were enjoying the night! You can't go wrong with Erin and Behind the Bride! Thank you Erin for all of your amazing help with our wedding!

I cannot say enough great things about Behind the Bride! Erin Melton was a pleasure to work with and ran with all of my ideas I had in my head. I walked into the reception room and was soooo happy with how everything turned out. It was nice to know I didn't have to stress about any problems the day of the wedding, if there were any I still don't know of them! I wish that I could get married over and over again and you bet I would hire Erin again in a heart beat!

Erin was fantastic! She was very professional and took care of everything for us on the day of the wedding! She decorated our site, she shielded me from drama, she was always calm and made me feel reassured and comfortable. I knew she would take care of everything and that freed me to be able to enjoy my wedding!
