Carrie & Greg

Tammy is amazing and I was so lucky to have her as my wedding planner. Planning a destination wedding was becoming stressful and then I found Tammy and Special Moments. She was a life saver and gave me the wedding of my dreams while I was planning from a different state. Tammy knew what I would need before I could even think of it. She even took care of things I didn’t even think of, but were needed and made the day perfect. Tammy found the perfect location for me and helped take my thoughts and ideas for my dream wedding and make them into a reality. She helped me with every detail and took so much off my plate. With Tammy around on the day of the wedding, I was able to be calm and not have any worries, I knew everything would be taken care of.

Jamie & Colin

Tammy was absolutely incredible and truly went above and beyond throughout our entire wedding planning process. We chose the partial planning package and as an out-of-state bride it ended up being an absolute dream. Tammy handled so much more than we ever expected and was always just a phone call away whenever we had questions or needed guidance.
She gave us amazing vendor recommendations and being able to use some of her decor items was incredibly helpful, especially planning from out of state. Every vendor immediately felt at ease when they heard we were working with Tammy because they knew everything would be organized and taken care of.
On the wedding day itself, everything went off perfectly. Tammy made our day even more beautiful than we could have imagined and I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. She handled it all so we could just enjoy every moment. We truly could not have done it without her. Tammy helped us plan and execute our dream wedding, and we are so grateful for everything she did!

Gabe & Erica

I cannot recommend this team enough for all your wedding related needs. My wife and I are so thankful for how calming and organized Tammy and her team were throughout this entire process. She pays so much attention to the little things which makes the day feel that much more special, and maybe more importantly, that much more smooth.

We hired Special Moments for “Day-Of” coordinating, but that name is misleading because they did so much more than just help on the day of the event. Tammy called with us, gave us advice, suggested vendors, and provided detailed packets with timelines and everything else we needed for our perfect wedding day. On the big day, she brought her colleague Janice, who was just as sweet, efficient, and well-organized as Tammy.

For any of our friends getting married, we will absolutely be referring them to Special Moments, and I suggest to anyone out there reading this review to at least have a call with them before making any decisions. You will see within that one call just how detail oriented and collaborative their process is. Thank you Tammy!Gabe

Kristin and Douglas

The moment I connected with Tammy on the phone on our first call, I knew Special Moments Events was for me!! Tammy went absolutely above and beyond- she handled every single call and email with our venue, always made sure to ask questions, and handled every single detail with the end stages of planning, even as my partial planner! On the day of our wedding, Tammy and her assistant were amazing. They handled all of the vendors, set up, take down, and the craziness of the day! I would recommend them to anyone!!!

Ashton & Alec

Tammy and the entire Special Moments team exceeded every expectation I had for my wedding on May 23rd! Since I was planning a destination wedding from halfway across the country, I relied on Tammy for so much throughout the planning process and she delivered every step of the way! From helping design and build my seating chart, coordinating with the venue, and obtaining vendor quotes, to answering countless questions, giving me very much needed advice, and keeping everything organized, she went above and beyond in ways I can’t even fully count! Her communication was always prompt, professional, and reassuring, which made the entire planning process so much less stressful. On the wedding day, everything ran smoothly because of the preparation and care that Tammy and her team put into every detail. Having someone I could completely trust was invaluable, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her! Special Moments was easily one of the best investments we made for our wedding, and I would recommend Tammy and her team to any couple looking for a planner who genuinely cares and consistently goes above and beyond!

Allison & Ryan

I cannot say enough good things about Tammy and her team. My husband and I planned our big, dream wedding in March and Tammy made every part of the process seamless. But, as a pandemic bride, restrictions required us to cancel our big day and re-plan a much smaller, private ceremony to keep everyone we love safe from COVID. Tammy helped me make all of the changes and coordinate with vendors. I really couldn’t have gotten through this without her. Our wedding wasn’t what we planned, but I know what we planned would have been perfect and what ended up really happening was still beautiful. Every bride should hire Special Moments!

Sara & Noah

Hi Tammy!

I know we didn’t get to do this in person on Saturday with all of the hecticness of the day… but Noah, my family, and myself wanted to say thank you x 1000 for everything you did to make this past weekend go the way that it did! It definitely would not have gone as smoothly as it did without your and Jennifer’s help. Your attention to detail and open communication was extremely helpful and we were able to push through and carry on with our wedding given the current circumstances. If we’re being honest here… my dad was skeptical about why we needed a wedding planner and what all it entailed… (you know how dads are…) needless to say after this weekend he full heartedly is appreciative and would have used you 10 times again if he needed to. Haha!

Again, I apologize we couldn’t thank you in person.. and that this gratitude has taken 3 days to get to you, but we just wanted to say THANK YOU!

With love,
Mr. and Mrs. Menendez

Amanda ( Bride )

Absolutely Amazing!

I cannot say enough about how absolutely amazing Tammy was, I would recommend her x100! Not only does she have a thorough knowledge of the industry, great relationships with vendors and venues, but she is on top of every detail from start to finish. She works with with you on what level of assistance that you need and goes from there. Everything was beautiful day of, even though Tammy always walks you through what to expect and has everything laid out in a schedule w/pictures, she was still able to throw in some surprises and just make our day that much better! Thank you Tammy for everything that you did to make our day a memorable one!

Melynda ( Bride )

I hired Special Moments Event Planning as my day of coordinator. After planning my wedding for months, I wanted to have someone there to keep the day running smoothly and I am so glad I found Tammy. She was so easy to work with during the entire process and was always responsive when I had questions leading up to my wedding day. Jennifer and Melissa were my day of coordinators and they were absolutely amazing! They were so attentive and kept things moving along without any issue. I highly recommend using Tammy Waterman and her amazing staff. Thank you Jennifer, Melissa, and Tammy for creating a dream wedding day for me!
