Your Dalton wedding deserves a coordinator who cares.

Dalton is a community with deep roots and strong families — and that often shows in the weddings here. Whether it’s a traditional church ceremony followed by a big family reception, or a more modern celebration at a local venue, Dalton weddings are full of heart.

I’m Michelle, and I offer day-of wedding coordination for couples in Dalton and the surrounding Whitfield County area. I’m based in North Georgia and serve the entire northwest part of the state, so Dalton is absolutely within my area.

Big-city organization with small-town heart.

A lot of couples in Dalton have told me they didn’t think hiring a day-of coordinator was an option for them — either because they assumed it was too expensive or because they didn’t know anyone local who offered it. That’s exactly why I’m here.

Day-of coordination is affordable, and it makes a world of difference. Instead of your mom or best friend scrambling to manage the caterer and the DJ and the photographer, I’m the one running things behind the scenes. Your family and friends get to be guests — and you get to enjoy your day.

Experience with large guest lists and meaningful ceremonies.

Dalton weddings often bring big families together, and I love that. I’m experienced with managing large guest counts, coordinating complex timelines, and making sure every transition — from ceremony to reception to send-off — runs smoothly.

I’m also comfortable working with different cultural and religious ceremony traditions. Whatever makes your wedding uniquely yours, I’ll make sure it’s honored and coordinated with care.

Let’s make sure your wedding goes smoothly.

I’d love to hear about your Dalton wedding plans. Drop me a message!

How far in advance should I book a coordinator?
Most couples reach out 6 to 12 months before their wedding, but it is never too late. If your date is open on my calendar, I would love to work with you.

Megan Kistler

Bride

Wedding planning is her job but she clearly works from her heart and has a passion for what she does! It's a rarity that you enjoy your vendor so much that you want to invite their husband to your wedding as well!

She has such a kind heart and is clearly passionate about caring for the well being of the couple throughout the whole wedding planning process. She was polite and considerate about making sure my husband & I's preferences were heard and communicated well.

She made sure we had plenty of quality time together as a couple throughout our wedding day, so that we didn't end up driving away feeling like everything was a blur. (We will forever be grateful for that!)

Kathryn

Mother of Bride

Michelle was the perfect choice for our daughter's wedding. Michelle was always calm yet in control. From the rehearsal throughout the entire wedding day, she made everything easy and stress-free.

Rachelle Patel

Her coordination services are the perfect option for brides who wants to be involved in the planning process but not have to worry about any of the details or execution on the day!

Bao Tran Burns

As someone who was planning my wedding from out of state, it was important for me to find someone I could trust. Michelle was very quick to respond to emails and did a great job communicating with my other vendors so that I did not have to worry about the minor details.

Russell Harper

Groom

Michelle is absolutely amazing. She was incredibly easy to work with throughout the planning process, she went above and beyond in helping us set up the venue, and she kept our wedding running smoothly and stress free for my wife and I.

Sharilyn Harper

Calm, organized, and sincerely caring, Michelle helped me and my husband feel absolutely no stress on the day. She was so patient and friendly, and made everyone feel relaxed, while also keeping tabs of the time to make sure everything was on schedule.

We had her as our day-of-coordinator, but she did so much more than just be our guide on our big day: From taking time to understand our vision, building our timeline, ensuring decorations were situated, making sure the flow of the day was seamless, and most importantly fun!

Alaine Ingram

She handled all my vendors and helped me have a stress free week before the wedding, throughout the rehearsal and all day of the wedding! She did everything while being 8 months pregnant. That is talent.

Kaitie Noller

She was able to plan a last minute switch to an indoor facility when it rained on our wedding day, and I'm completely sure our day would have been ruined (if not completely stressed) without her help.

Alex Devon

Michelle went above and beyond throughout our entire wedding planning process. Her flexibility and problem solving was especially evident when we had to re-plan approximately a month before our wedding date due to COVID-19.

Megan Adkins

Every time we met with Michelle or talked with her on the phone, she immediately brought peace into the conversation and decreased my stress with planning a wedding during COVID.

She gave us all the permission in the world to make sure this day reflected my husband and I's love, and was on top of everything!
