planners.  My past experiences showed me that in some circumstances, a planner can sometimes
case with Emily.
Since then, she's afforded me numerous opportunities to bid on events. The one I'd like to single out
was a wedding on March 17th, 2007. We were fortunate to win this bid (I believe because Emily went
to bat for us).  The event was at the Boojum Tree in Phoenix, a venue that we had never worked in
previously.  Not being one to leave things to chance, I suggested Emily and I meet on location so I
could familiarize myself with the new surroundings.

When I arrived, she was already there with the DJ and one the venues' reps.  We worked out a game
plan right then and there.  She was open to suggestion and not shy about making suggestions on her
own.

During the entire process, the bride and groom requested multiple revisions of their menu and as is
often the case, their guest count changed more than once.  Emily was quick to convey these
messages so that I could act or respond accordingly.  Any time I had a question, Emily took no more
than a day or two to respond.  She was always there when I needed her, but confident in our abilities
so that I never
felt pressured by her at any time.  By the way, she performed all of these duties in the late third
trimester of her pregnancy!!!

Emily Edwards is the reason I've changed my mind about wedding/event planners.  A bad planner
could
make the difference between an average event and a spectacular one.  Emily is a consummate
professional and I'd welcome the opportunity to work with her again.
