A Loving Tribute to My Mom…
When I told my mother that I was going start a wedding planning business, but needed to find the perfect name, she immediately said, “How about "Your Day Your Way?" I said hmm…not bad, let’s go with it! The logo was a lot of trial and error and I never really "loved" it. Then unfortunately, my mom passed and I came across a poem about missing her and the heart and scrollwork design at the top of the poem really moved me, and I cried out, “I found the inspiration for my logo!” And here we are 13+ years later. <3 - Linda
“I am a bride that was planning a destination wedding. I called multiple coordinators as my fiancée and I were only going to be in town for 3 days to meet up with a planner. I made 3 interview with planners and Linda was the only one that came to the meeting with details of what she could do and had venues for us to look at the next day.
She listened in our initial phone conversation and took great notes, because she came with a plan of action and was ready to hit the streets running. She also made my fiancée feel like he was a part of the planning process (he was completely overwhelmed!). Linda has kept in contact and helped to coordinate the whole event. I'm headed back down to see her in just a few days to finalize all of the details and wrap up loose ends. I don't doubt that this is going to be everything that I have envisioned.
I would recommend Linda Smith and Your Day Your Way, everyday of the week!”
