FEELING THE LOVE
"David made everything easy. Enough said right there, but I'll go on. I have 4 daughters and have A LOT of experience throwing a wedding, but this wedding, my youngest's, was the most beautiful and least stressful of them all because of David! He took care of everything and was always there to answer the smallest and biggest questions and he did it with grace and love. That was the best part--I really felt like his whole heart was in this wedding down to the smallest detail. I cannot say enough about his amazing vision and talent. Every one of my friends said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended and I agree! Thank you, David, for making all of my little girl's dreams come true! You are amazing!

David was recommended to us by mutual friends, and we couldn't be happier with selecting him to be our wedding planner and day-of coordinator. He is bright, professional, personable, and absolutely creative. He helped us to bring our Baton Rouge "books, bikes, brunch" wedding vision to life and helped us to brainstorm ways to make the day super personal.His recommendations for vendors were also top-notch -- we discovered local vendors who were talented and oh-so-amazing, from music to cakes, to catering, to photography and the venue. We loved that David was able to help us narrow down our vendor search to people he trusted and thought would be a good fit for us.When you work with David, know that he will make sure all of the pieces and parts align just right. Even if you may not be able to see how it’s all going to work, he does. He will use his diverse experience with catering and event planning to make sure that your day is yours, not anyone else’s. And if you’re feeling stressed, he’s there to reassure you that everything will be just fine.Our guests continually commented how beautiful everything was, and we know that we wouldn’t have been able to pull it all off without David’s expertise.

“It was exactly what we wanted. Beautiful mountains in the background — the lake, the inn that is a beautiful historic home. We wanted the event to be on the smaller side with family and close friends,” said Catherine. “We wanted a cool destination, and The Greystone Inn was the perfect place.”

A Wedding at The Greystone Inn
Catherine and Aaron relied on the impeccable taste of the bride’s mother and aunt for the choice of the venue. Both were thrilled when they arrived and saw it in person for the first time a few days before the wedding.
• After the ceremony, the bridal party boarded The Greystone’s handcrafted mahogany boat, The Miss Lucy, named after the inn’s original owner Lucy Armstrong, a Savannah heiress. The group enjoyed a champagne toast on the sunlit lake.
• The Jewish chair dance at the couple’s reception elevated the fun of the night, making it a festive dance floor party enjoyed by all.
• Halfway through the ceremony on what had previously been a very cloudy day, the bride noticed the clouds parting and she felt the sun. The bride’s mothers and aunts agreed the moment seemed to be a blessing from her beloved late grandmother.

David was absolutely wonderful!! He was knowlegable, organized, fun, creative, flexible --everything you want in a wedding planner! We hired him for the "day of coordination" and he was fantastic! He really knew how to take charge of that day and make it flow so smoothly. He also was very creative and talented at setting things up for us. The day of the wedding we were nervous and excited and had so much going on...David was a calming presence, he made us so comfortable. We had complete trust in him and he did not disappoint!! He made our special day come together perfectly. Many of our guests also commented on what a great job he did and how much they enjoyed him. He really is amazing and we are so grateful we had him for our wedding!

David was fantastic handling my wedding. He answered every phone call, every text and every e-mail. Anything he said he was going to do, he did wonderfully. On the day of the wedding, I had no worries about a thing. He handled the staff at the venue and all of my wedding party (16 people not including parents) without any problems. He's wonderful and has a wonderful heart and passion for what he does. I recommend him not only for a wedding but for any event that requires planning! He's definitely worth it, no questions asked!
