Clutch Events

Hiring Megan was the best decision I made for my wedding. She was recommended to me from a friend who used her services, and I could not have loved her more after our first meeting. I met with her 14 months before my wedding and knew right away she was awesome. She has amazing energy and is someone you want to hangout with and be friends with. Every vendor I used raved about Megan and the relationship she had with them. She is very loved in the wedding business and helps you get the best of the best.
I am not from Seattle and I needed a lot of guidance. I am not kidding when I say I sent Megan hundreds of emails asking about small details and she was always so prompt to respond.
All of my friends and family loved hanging out with Megan during wedding events. She took on our welcome party and rehearsal dinner– not easy to deal with two very particular southern women as the hosts. Megan made everything such a success. I highly recommend her!

What can we say about Megan that hasn’t already been said. She’s the reason our special day went off without a hitch! We hired her as our day-​of coordinator, and it was the best investment we made for our wedding. She is a consummate professional, yet fun and energetic and always upbeat.
She was always quick to respond, and patient with the numerous emails I sent her during the planning process. She made great recommendations, dozens of helpful suggestions, and put our minds at ease. Not only does she help with the big stuff like creating a custom timeline and communicating with all the other vendors, but I would argue that the best reason to hire Megan is for all of the tiny details that you don’t think about (hey, look… all our gifts made it safely back to our hotel room without us even having to think about it!)
She managed every detail on the day of the wedding, allowing both us and our families to simply enjoy the day without having to worry about a thing. She made sure that everything went according to plan (and even if it hadn’t, we would never have known because she is the world’s best quick-​thinker and problem solver). We cannot recommend her highly enough. Thanks Megan!
V&J

Similar to all other reviews on here, Megan was an amazing planner and huge help throughout the entire wedding process. Her organization and good humor really made it fun and ensured we had everything in place leading up to the event.
What I appreciated most was her ability to adapt and correct the items you can’t plan for on your wedding day, like all day power outages at your reception. Megan was able to find generators, coordinate across vendors, ensure the food was fine, and sound check the band all without interrupting our day of events. When we showed up to the venue everything was immaculate and we were prepared to have a nice candlelight dinner when the power finally came on after being off all day.
Hats off to Megan for all her help and guidance. Hiring her was an easy and smart decision.

We hired Megan of Clutch Events to be our wedding Day of Coordinator. She is one of the best hires and worthwhile expenses of our wedding. We could not have managed the day without her. If you want to enjoy the day of your wedding without a worry, hire Megan. She is professional, hard working, and is without a doubt one of the best in her field. She provided us with excellent advice and had a great portfolio of contacts in the industry. Every vendor she recommended was excellent.
Our other vendors also raved about Megan and were eager to work with her. Initially, we didn’t know this was an important quality, but your wedding planner coordinates with everyone. She gets the day underway and needs to work well with everyone. Megan rocked this and got us through the day without a single hitch.
After many references and referrals, we came across Megan’s profile and inquired of her availability for our wedding at the Olympic Sculpture Park in Seattle. She scheduled a facetime chat and once we spoke it was an easy choice. She understood our personalities, knew what vibe we wanted at our wedding, and was clearly an easy person to get along with.
We learned in the process of wedding planning, that you want your planner to be efficient, responsive, decisive and someone who gets things done, all while making it as fun a process as possible. Megan fits this description to a T. She supported us as need be from the day we hired her, provided a great list of vendors, remained in contact with each of our vendors 2 weeks before the wedding, ran our rehearsal, put together a wedding timeline down to 15 minutes increments (!), kept the wedding on time and made sure we got to eat and participate in all the important events of the day. She even delivered us last call drinks from the bar, as we would never have made it back in time to have one. And then, she shut the party down and made sure we didn’t have to worry about a thing with ending the night. Honestly, we can’t say enough good things about this lady.
We think hiring Megan is a no brainer for a well organized and great wedding. You spend so much time and money, planning for one of the most important days in your life. Hiring Megan makes sure you get to see it executed flawlessly and she makes sure you actually get to enjoy it! Thank you again lady! — Hayley & Brian

We originally went into wedding-​planning thinking we could pull it off without a day-​of coordinator, but as the day came closer, we realized we needed someone who could be the main contact for all of our vendors, be in charge of setting up/​taking down/​packing up décor, and put out any random fires. That person was Megan, and she did a fantastic job!
Megan is so friendly and full of energy, and knew both our venue (DeLille Cellars) and several of our other vendors. She is well-​liked and respected in the industry, and we just loved her as well. She used her experience and knowledge to create our perfect day-​of timeline, and the day’s events moved seamlessly — we hit every goal time, started/​ended the ceremony on time so nobody had to wait around and we had time to mingle with guests during the cocktail hour, and were able to fit in all the important activities (first dances, cake, tosses) before our photographers and videographer left! Staying on-​time allowed us to really enjoy the day, soak up every moment with family and friends, and not worry about rushing to the next activity to catch up.
I’m most thankful to Megan for perfectly executing the vision I had for our wedding décor. With pretty minimal instruction, she set up everything just the way I wanted it and it all looked beautiful. And THEN, she took everything down and packed it up in our car at the end of the night, sending me an email detailing which items were where. Not a single thing was broken or missing. She even sent a few items I had borrowed from friends home with those friends so I didn’t have to worry about returning them.
In the end, Megan’s day-​of coordinating services were more than worth every penny. I can’t imagine having had our wedding without her, and I recommend her to anyone who wants to pull off a beautiful, stress-​free event!

Megan was awesome! We thought we wanted to plan and organize the majority of our wedding… until reality set in and we realized how much more efficiently we could do it with Megan! She helped us pick/​secure a variety of our big vendors in addition to her month of package. From the very beginning she was so responsive and helped us navigate contracts, wedding etiquette, etc. I can’t say enough about how thoroughly she answered every question (and there were many)! Having her available by email with all of her experience throughout the planning process reduced our stress and allowed us to feel confident in our decisions. Plus she was always good at making us laugh along the way.
As the wedding got closer, I cannot imagine having to do it without Megan! She made sure all of the details were taken care of leading up to the event and coordinated all of the vendors and family seamlessly the day of so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Soooo worth it! We have Megan to thank for making our wedding everything we wanted it to be.
If you want a fun, organized, responsive, laid-​back yet attentive planner Megan is it!
P. S. I highly recommend Megan’s «Educational Consultation» for everyone and anyone planning a wedding. That one meeting alone was super helpful. Be warned though… once you meet Megan you will want her with you every step of the wedding planning process!

In short, we were thrilled with Clutch Events and would hire them again in a snap. Megan clearly loves what she does. She takes every pain possible to make your day exactly what you envisioned and she does it with ease.
Megan did our wedding of 200+ guests, which was also a live production set (our wedding was broadcast live online and had a crew of over 30 working in addition to the wedding team). Megan managed to coordinate the regular wedding stuff, which was a feat of its own, with the out-​of-​the-​ordinary production situation going on — in the rain!
BEFORE THE WEDDING
Megan was promptly available and frank in giving advice or answering questions. She kept us confidant that our wedding would run smoothly and embody who we are as a couple. We never once looked at each other like, «um, does this person get what we’re going for?» or, «are you sure she can pull this off?» Not once.
DURING THE WEDDING
Megan was the perfect combination of present and missing (she had lots to do, after all!). I later learned through my Matron of Honor that our cake didn’t come. It’s a testament to Megan that this never came to my attention. She noticed the mistake and made sure the cake was delivered on time so I wouldn’t have to worry. I can only imagine how many other snafus she fixed without me having to worry about it!
AFTER THE WEDDING
Megan checked in with us to make sure there weren’t any loose ends that needed tying up. To this day, months later, I know I could call her up with a question about my wedding and she would have an answer at hand, glad to hear from me.
Hiring Clutch Events would assure a smooth-​running, well-​executed event that delivered on your vision for it. Megan goes the extra mile to execute on her clients’ visions. Plus, she’s a super fun person.

I have nothing but good things to say about Megan. What helped us the most was having her build us a schedule that started on our wedding day and worked backward. Her expertise helped us know what we had to do and when, and she could tell us whether we were on track or whether we were falling behind.
Megan also has fantastic relationships with vendors in Seattle; she knew our band (The Nines — whom she recommended), our photographer (Eliza Truitt — also a recommendation), our florist (Christopher Flowers), and everyone at our venue (Sodo Park). That was monumentally important as we headed into the final days leading up to our wedding. She handled pretty much *all* of the back-​and-​forth with our vendors, which really shielded us from some of the minutiae that we really didn’t want to be involved in at the last minute. That was amazing.
She’s also just a fun person to be around. We felt like we could bounce ideas off of her and have an honest, down-​to-​earth response come back to us. She’s professional and takes her job seriously, but she has fun doing it — a great combination.
One TINY example of Megan’s willingness to go above and beyond for us: We had a friend make our wedding cake, and had a ton of it left over after the reception. She loaded the leftovers into the back of her car and delivered it to our doorstep the day after our wedding (with a bunch of other items that she’d collected from our reception venue).

Megan was all over it from the time we started working with her (months before our wedding), to the day after our wedding when she came by our house to drop off some extra stuff. She really went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated. Very happy we had her there to run the show behind the scenes for us! We had a pretty stress free wedding day and it was largely impart from working with such a detail oriented, organized planner. We highly recommend Megan’s services as day of coordinator or full wedding planner!

Me and my fiancé hired Megan for the full blown package of helping us organize our wedding in 7 months or less. I at the time was a grad student getting my MBA and working and my fiancé was working full time as well. Needless to say, we did not have too much time to research every vendor and wonder if they would actual deliver or not. We started realizing Megan was «in the know» and probably on top of her stuff when we mentioned her name to vendors when we had started to look at wedding venues before we even hired her and heard nothing but rave reviews and how much people loved to work with her!
Megan was beyond a wedding planner– she not only gave perfect recommendations, listened to exactly what we wanted, but was also part therapist, friend and buffer for anything we did not want to deal with. We just had our wedding last weekend, and everything went pretty much perfect. My dad told me yesterday he had been getting compliments from all of his friends and family about how much fun, and how smoothly our wedding went compared to others they had attended.
I am normally a pretty anxious person when it come to planning events as i like to know everything thats going on, and to be the person who overlooks it all– Megan did an awesome job of quelling my fears, keeping me in the loop and then when the big day came– my best friends & bridemsaids kept looking at me and asking «how are you so calm?!?» Knowing we had Megan really meant i was able to enjoy the day and let someone else make sure things were working and let me enjoy everything that I should on such a special day. Can’t say enough good things about her!

We hired Megan as our day-​of coordinator for our June 2012 wedding. As you will find out, her skills go beyond day-​of coordination! We could not have pulled off our wedding event and reception without her!
When I first met Megan, her first impression is what sold me. She is organized, professional, engaging, and truely a delight to be around. Out of all the coordinator’s I interviewed, I knew instantly that Megan was the one. Afterall, on your wedding day you want to have someone you can not only rely on, but really want to be a part of your day! She made our wedding day completely stress free! In addition to the day-​of, she was present and engaging at all the pre-​coordination meetings and worked flawlessly with our Caterer, Skillet, and all our vendors. Through out the planning process, her expertise shined as she offered great ideas for design as well! She also went above and beyond in all the coordinating efforts of getting things wrapped up post wedding too. She even helped take home all the wedding decorations I had made so I wouldn’t have to worry when we got wisked off to our hotel and she personally delivered them the day after. It was a huge relief off of my shoulders! Also, she was amazingly thoughtful. She would send emails and/​or text messages at just the right time to offer encouragement or excited wishes… as if she knew what I was feeling at different times in the planning process, day before and morning of the big day. She had a real calming effect!
I would think that if you had the opportunity to hire her to plan your whole event, she would make a stunning event that would be completely worry free! Now that is priceless!

I hired Megan as our day-​of coordinator for our July 2012 wedding, but that title is incredibly deceiving– she was *so much more* than just a day-​of coordinator!
When I first began searching for a coordinator, I was surprised at how many planners seemed really unorganized– flaking on initial meetings, unresponsive to inquiries about their services, etc.. Megan was the complete opposite– incredibly organized, meticulous, and professional throughout the entire process. As an added bonus, she has an amazing personality and is an absolute joy to be around, which not only makes pre-​wedding meetings super awesome, but also made my rehearsal a breeze and calmed any wedding day jitters I had.
I also gave her ten thousand random DIY projects to set up at our reception venue, which she did impeccably, all while insisting I was not allowed to help her the morning of.
Future brides, she was seriously the best money we spent (and worth ten times what she charged)– I would HIGHLY recommend keeping your sanity and hiring a day-​of coordinator, and Megan is absolute tops.

I work at a wedding venue, and have worked with Megan over the last couple of years off and on. She is fun, fabulous, and great to have at the site before, during and after the big day. I would recommend her enthusiastically to anyone!

I recently referred a friend of mine to Megan and it was then that I realized I should totally Unilocal her! The convo with my friend reminded me how Super FUN and EASY my wedding was. I had never really thought about planning a wedding and all that it entails. I knew it was most likely an exhausting experience but I had no idea allll the stuff that goes into it. Oy!
Lucky US, we had Megan! …and we had no worries. Planning the wedding was fun and not overwhelming because Megan has a Timeline and as long as you stick to it and answer what she needs answered, you will be all set. You are made aware of deadlines like when you need to tell the venue how many people your having, tell the caterers how many vegetarians will be there, when the bridesmaids should have their dresses by, who’s picking up desserts, etc. You name it, she can do it!
Megan organized the heck out of my groom, myself, our families, the bridal party etc. She will tailor your needs to you and your wedding. When it comes down to the actual day, it’s a breeze. We got to enjoy the whole evening and Megan made sure that we got to do all the things that were important to us. Thank you, Megan
I agree with Sara about wanting to be Megan’s best friend. She’s a good time!

There are a few things that we did that helped make our day picture perfect and Megan from Clutch Events was at the top of that list. She was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. I can not imagine how we could have done everything without her, and would recommend her wedding planning expertise to anyone. Not only is Megan incredibly professional, punctual and enthusiastic but is so much fun to work with! She added so much joy to our special day and am grateful she was not only our wedding planner but has now become a life long friend.

We used Megan as our wedding planner 3 years ago. We have since been to multiple weddings she’s organized. Just realized we never reviewed her on here — aaaacckkk!
Megan’s skills, expertise, creativity and finesse are remarkable. I’m a bit (ok, a lot) of a control freak and Megan did a fantastic job keeping me at ease every step of the way. She insisted on taking over tasks that were not a good use of my time. She gave us fabulous ideas throughout the process. As a result, we have some really special memories that we would not have otherwise had.
We have recommended Megan repeatedly and been in awe at each of her weddings. She is so on top of things, organizes to a «T» and is professional at every step.
I’m honestly shocked to see the one cranky pants review on here. Given all the other 5 start reviews, it’s obvious Megan and Clutch cater well to each and every event. Knowing Megan on a professional level for the last three years, I can attest to her ability and professionalism on every level.
Oh, and she’s super fun. You’ll want to be best friends with her after your wedding. Promise.

We hired Megan as a day of coordinator and it was the best decision we made.
She helped us craft a day of schedule and then followed up with all vendors to confirm they were also aware of the days events.
she made sure the vendor setup all decorations and that the photographer captured all the right images.
She also kept our bridal party, family, and friends on schedule and in check.
Our day would not have run as smoothly had it not been for megans watchful eye guiding us through the day.
