We wrote a little bit about winning this award last year and how overwhelmed we were to be selected out of the tens of thousands of Event Professionals in the US.
But really taking a step back to reflect on what we do for a living.
We get paid to plan weddings and parties!
Not just any parties but fabulous events where the host gets to be the host and we do all the work. Where the Bride & Groom get to stare into each-others eyes and soak in all the moments. Where the Mother of the Bride gets to see her daughter dance with her dad and hold her grandmothers hand because she is not working she is a guest. Where the morning is filled with best pampering of hair & makeup and mimosas you have ever experienced with your girlfriends. Where this one day of memories goes with you for the rest of your life!
The amount of time, energy, money, love, family, friends, and did we mention money that goes into 1 Day – One 14 hour day is almost overwhelming in itself. But then as a company to be recognized in the Top 5% of the Country for doing something that we love to do is beyond rewarding. We do this because we Love to do this. And thanks to our incredible clients who love us back we are able to share our love for weddings with the world.

Bee said… First of all Sarah and Valerie were AMAZING!! They were thrown so many curve balls on my wedding day but they were swinging like pro’s! They were both very responsive, very attentive and present for everything I needed them to attend. My sister’s bridesmaid dress zipper broke minutes before the ceremony (can you imagine)??? I was so overwhelmed I had mentally checked out at this point LOL! Buuuuut Sarah saved the day! She was on her knees sewing my sister into her dress!!! She was a godsend on the most important day of my life and I will forever be indebted to her for that! I would recommend SAS Weddings a thousand times over!!

Joseph said… Valarie Kaplan from SAS is the absolute best wedding planner there is. Period. The most professional and organized person i have seen. You do not realize how important a good wedding planner is until it’s crunch time. I’ve been to many weddings and seen wedding planners sit around or try to give direction to vendors, wedding party members and guests. They cannot control a crowd, stay on schedule and have an i don’t care attitude. Valarie is the sweetest, nicest person that gets the job done in an impeccable manner. Anything you need she says without hesitation “It’s already taken care of, sure, no problem, I will do that right away” and so on. Her communication and follow up skills are top notch. She just went above and beyond in every possible way and actually cares. It shows this is her passion, her craft and she is unbelievable at it. Our entire wedding party actually complimented us on Valarie. That’s how good she was. From the bottom of my new wife’s heart and mine I want to thank Valarie for providing us with the best wedding planner service possible. No one could ever be any better or more likeable:) Thank you Valarie!

Jason said… This is from a groom’s perspective btw… Don’t hesitate. If you’re trying to cut costs, I get it; but this is not the place to get cheap. Before we booked SAS I really had a hard time understanding “why” we needed a planner. My wife thought she needed one, and I was fine with that if I could understand exactly what they do. I even made her talk to me on the phone and give a sales pitch of sort. The answer to my question of “What exactly do you do?” was answered pretty intently that they do EVERYTHING. This seemed a bit over the top and I was hoping for specifics, but it was pretty clear we were going to get a planner. It wasn’t until wedding day that I finally figured out the specifics of what “everything” was. From finding lost ties after the reception, fixing pocket squares that were completely wrong (something that would have taken us guys hours to figure out) minutes before pictures, organizing rehearsal, pictures, etc., to having some toothpicks on hand after dinner. They seriously do everything, and I’m sure I don’t even know about most of it. I’ve been a part of weddings where after the reception all we want to do is go out and party, however first we had to help pick everything up, stack chairs, pack up gifts, gather decorations, flowers etc. At our wedding SAS handled all of this and then some. My wife and I, our family and friends, and our bridal parties were able to leave knowing beforehand that SAS would be there to handle all of the after party chores. It made the night truly enjoyable for everyone. Our wedding was amazing, and the little things that went on behind the scenes are what made it that way. Do yourself a favor and don’t underestimate what SAS could do for your wedding as well.

Hilary said… Sarah was absolutely amazing! She is extremely detail-oriented and organized which immensely helped take the pressure off me during the 30 days leading up to the wedding. She also made sure that everything we wanted on our wedding-day timeline took place, and she can bustle ANY dress! Thank you for an amazing experience!!!

Jamie said… Sarah was wonderful to work with and made my wedding day go so smoothly! She and Val took care of every last detail from hotel welcome bags, vendor coordination and set up, wedding party timeline, transportation coordination and I’m sure a lot of other things that I didn’t even know about 🙂 they allowed my husband and I to be able to truly enjoy our wedding day and cherish every moment. Everything went perfectly and I could not have pulled it off without the SAS team! They are professional, organized and fun to work with. I would highly recommend!

Tara said… Sarah and her team are top notch!! We came to Sarah having only selected a venue and she took care of all the rest! She knows everyone in the business and was able to hook us up with the best vendors. Everything went so smoothly and the end result was more than we ever expected! Sarah’s passion for weddings truly shows in everything she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for perfection and professionalism.
Our hearts are full of Love!
