The one worth reading twice

While the venue was pressuring us to move the ceremony indoors, she held firm and got us the time we needed. Sure enough, the storm passed quickly, and we were able to have the ceremony we had always envisioned.

Not praise. A coordinator taking the venue's side of an argument away from the venue, twenty minutes before a ceremony, and being right.

She answers.

The single most repeated sentence in these reviews is some version of "she got back to me fast".

Meghan was the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!! From the start she was so responsive and her attention to detail and knowledge was phenomenal and we absolutely couldn't have done it without her. She took photos throughout the day for us too!!! It was the perfect day thanks to her!

Meghan was incredibly helpful every step of the way during our wedding planning and through the day of! She did a great job of coordinating all the moving pieces as our big day approached and made sure everything was executed seamlessly during the ceremony and reception. Most importantly, our stress level was minimized as we immediately knew we were in good hands from our first planning discussion with her. We can't say enough about how highly we recommend her!!

Meghan was so amazing to work with! She was super responsive at all times and went above and beyond to make sure our day went smoothly, and was everything we wanted it to be. Any question I had, she had the answer (and more)! The day was more than I could've asked for, and she played such an important part in that! Planning an event yourself can be super stressful, but with Meghan as our day-of-coordinator I knew we were in great hands.

Meghan did an excellent job with the month / day-of coordinating for our outdoor / back-yard wedding. She was always available by phone, email, and was extremely responsive and flexible. She was realistically guiding us through the process of planning our wedding multiple months in advance even though she was technically only hired for month-of planning. She worked well with us and our parents (who were also involved in planning). She also provided the signature for our marriage license, which was very convenient. On the day-of, she confidently managed multiple vendors and coordinated things so they worked seamlessly. She recommended excellent vendors that we were very pleased with. We hadn't been to a lot of weddings before, so didn't know how ceremonies are supposed to run, and she helped us create the organizational structure for ours. She was a pleasure to work with over the last several months and we would definitely recommend her.

Let me start by saying YOU MUST hire Meghan! You will be so so thankful, just as I was, and still am. She helped me through the entire process of coordinating my wedding and was always extremely responsive. She stayed connected with my vendors, was always there for me when I had questions, was extremely punctual, and most importantly genuine and FUN! When I tell you my husband and I could literally have not done it without Meghan, I mean it. Rehearsal day and day of she made my life so much easier, and I will forever be thankful.

Osprey is a wonderful venue to get married! It was love in first sight when I visited the location and I had my heart set right away. The entire wedding preparation was smooth - special thanks to coordinator Brooke and Meghan! Their experiences, quick response and problem solving skills were amazing. Thanks to them, I never have to worry about details. The best part was, I had a wonderful wedding that I will never forget. If you are interested in this venue, be quick! We wanted a date in May but it was booked all the way to the end of September. You won't be disappointed.

I just got married this past Saturday (10/6/18) and cannot say enough good things about this venue. It was the first venue we saw and nothing compared. Not only is the overall property stunning, but they're so flexible and responsive. We worked with Brooke in the beginning, who was extremely helpful during our first few meetings and made the contracting process super easy. Closer to the day we were assigned Meghan as our Day of Coordinator. Meghan was unbelievably responsive. Any time of day that we had questions she would respond immediately. On the day, she kept us on track and made sure my cup Stayed full of wine! Planning a wedding is definitely one of the most stressful things I've ever done, but the Osprey's and their team helped to relieve a lot of that stress with their quick responses, flexibility, and just general experience. We received SO many compliments on the venue and I would not only recommend them, but hope that I can go back for other events in the future.

What can I say about this place that hasn't already been said? The venue is absolutely beautiful and in such a peaceful place along the river. Our coordinator, Meghan, was phenomenal. She was quick to respond to messages any time of day any day of the week. I really felt at ease with my wedding in their incredibly capable hands. They really made our wedding day perfect.

When the day goes sideways.

Rain, a band that quit three days out, a vendor who fell through, a coordinator who disappeared at three months.

I honestly can't say enough amazing things about Meghan. If you are on the fence about booking with her, JUST DO IT! My partner and I got married with Meghan's help TWICE.

We booked her right after our engagement in June 2022 and in November 2022 we needed to have an impromptu elopement as one of our parents was unfortunately losing the fight to cancer and wouldn't be able to make it to our June 2023 wedding. Meghan, without hesitation, came to our home the day before Thanksgiving and married us in a private ceremony.

Fast forward to June 3, 2023 and Meghan, of course, showed up for us 110% again on our wedding day. My partner and I were able to fully enjoy the day because we knew without a doubt Meghan had everything under control. She wrangled all the vendors, set up our ceremony and reception decor, helped people get to where they needed to be and always made sure Amber and I had food, drinks - whatever we needed!

When you are handing someone so much power to make or break your special day, you want to make sure you're making the perfect hire. Meghan is that person. Not only did she bring professionalism & organization to our wedding day, she was fun and joyful!

Meghan loves what she does and it shows through every interaction you will have with her whether it's over the phone, email or in person. We may have hired Meghan to help us on just one day of our lives but we have fully gained a friend in her and can't wait to see our relationship continue outside of work!

Hiring Meghan was the best decision we made for our wedding planning process! From the very first call, we knew that we would be in good hands. In the months leading up to the wedding, we asked her millions of questions and she answered every single one of them--patiently, thoroughly, and with record-breaking response time. She managed all of our vendors and made sure they were on the same page leading up to the event. We even had one of our vendors fall through at the last minute, and she did everything possible to make sure we secured another vendor as soon as possible. On the day of the wedding, Meghan worked diligently behind the scenes to make sure everything ran smoothly. She had the perfect balance of being in the background, but also always accessible to us throughout the night. She did an amazing job of making sure that all of our vendors, guests, and wedding party were where they needed to be. One of the most helpful things that Meghan did was setting up and breaking down the entire event. She made the space look absolutely beautiful and exactly as we had envisioned it! We truly believe that Meghan is the reason our day ran as smoothly as it did, and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone beginning their wedding planning process!

Best Coordinator Ever! Must Book for Weddings in the DMV Area!

After some unforeseen circumstances, we learned that our original day-of coordinator was no longer available about three months before our wedding. When Meghan stepped in, we quickly realized she would far exceed our expectations. She connected with us shortly afterward and provided incredibly helpful planning documents - answering questions we didn't even know we had. Meghan was detail-oriented, organized, and communicative. She took charge early and coordinated with our other vendors well before the big day. As an added bonus, she's also an officiant, which allowed my sister to lead our ceremony without needing to get ordained. At the rehearsal, Meghan was already familiar with the venue layout, clearly explained how the day would unfold, and ensured our wedding party felt prepared. On the wedding day, she arrived early and set everything up exactly as we had envisioned. Thanks to Meghan, we didn't feel a single moment of stress - we knew she had everything under control. She seamlessly managed timelines, vendor communication, setup, and breakdown. Meghan even led the cleanup and made sure the venue was left spotless. She provides the highest level of service with professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine positivity. We cannot recommend Meghan enough and are incredibly thankful we had the privilege of working with her.

Meghan was the best! She made planning and organizing my wedding super easy with her guides and advice. She is so easy to work with and would 100% recommend her for your wedding! She made sure our wedding was exactly what we wanted, was flexible when we needed to make last minute changes, and made it so I didn't have to think about any details during the day of the wedding. She took care of everything and is the reason my wedding ran so smoothly!

The Greatest Coordinator

We hired Meghan Farrar as our day of coordinator for our April wedding at Rust Manor and would highly recommend couples hire her. From the get go, Meghan was an organized, kind, reassuring voice for us while planning the wedding. She was also the only coordinator to let us know Virginia's residency requirement regarding officiants. Meghan was super familiar with Rust Manor. In the countdown to our wedding, Meghan checked in to make sure things were going well, answer any questions we have, and organize us for the walkthrough. Though we hired Meghan primarily for the day of our wedding, she was available to us throughout the planning process. In the month run up to our wedding, Meghan greatly assisted us in organizing the little details of the day and coordinating with our vendors, many of whom had worked previously with her and were excited to work with her again. Prior to our wedding, Meghan coordinated with our various POCs for vendors and the venue, making sure they knew who to reach out to on the day of our wedding and the timing of the day. Additionally, Meghan helped us through some last minute changes due to unexpected events. She was incredibly accommodating and reassuring. On the day of our wedding, Meghan was everything we needed her to be and more. She managed to keep us on schedule, comfortable, and immensely helped our stress. Her kind words and warm personality shined throughout the day and made our wedding day all the more special. We would recommend Meghan for any future wedding.

When the best planner of one of my friend groups recommended Meghan, I knew I would be in safe hands. Even so, having Meghan as our day-of coordinator exceeded my wildest expectations. After speaking to a few wedding coordinators prior to Meghan and feeling underwhelmed, I found Meghan's "no BS" approach to be a breath of fresh air-- she's super responsive, tells it like it is, and above all, always put our needs first. Throughout the planning process and coordination across vendors, Meghan made it a point to check in with me and see how I was feeling, quickly troubleshoot problems as they arose, and provide guidance on any wedding- related etiquette or vendor questions that I wasn't sure how to approach. On the wedding day, Meghan was professional, kept us on schedule, and made it possible for my now-husband and I to just sit back and effortlessly enjoy the day (a thing that I, as a self- professed control freak, have a hard time doing). I felt like I gained a trusted friend throughout our wedding planning journey with Meghan and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone and everyone. TL;DR Meghan is incredible and you're the luckiest couple alive if you get to have her as your planner/coordinator.

When we booked Meghan as our day-of-coordinator, we didn't expect a "week-of" absolute angel of a human to save our wedding. But she did. I don't think we're overstating it when we say Meghan was the glue that kept our wedding together. Three days before our wedding, our band dropped out. She worked all day and night to get us a replacement, frankly just as good as the original. She also made sure our day was perfect, regardless of the torrential downpour all day and all night. All we had to do was enjoy our wedding day - she made sure of that. Beyond that, Meghan is incredibly professional, organized, and a true joy to work with. If you're getting married and want to chillax to the max on your wedding day and just enjoy your new honey, Meghan is the person to make that happen. 15/10 recommend.

IF YOU WANT YOUR WEDDING TO RUN SMOOTHLY THEN YOU NEED TO BOOK MEGHAN FARRAR FROM FARREVER AFTER EVENTS. I came across her website randomly and contacted her on a Saturday morning. Next thing I knew, she contacted me in a few hours. She is super sweet, helpful, and very prompt. Talk about a speedy response! Whenever I emailed her, she responded fast! That is what I like about Meghan. She is very honest and efficient at doing her job. She will not waste any time and will get things done. I only booked her as my month/day of coordinator. However, I wish I knew about her when I first planned my wedding, because had I known how amazing she is, I would of hired her to help me plan my whole wedding. I was originally one of those people who thought I did not need help with planning my wedding. Why should I pay someone to help me plan when I could save money and do it myself? Well, I was wrong. Things started to creep up and I clearly needed some help. I am so glad my mother convinced me to hire a coordinator. I am trilled it was Meghan that I booked because she helped me sit back and relax. Long story short, Meghan was a pleasure to work with. She stuck by my side and helped me during the ups and downs of wedding planning. I had to postpone my wedding not once, but twice. I honestly cannot say I had my dream wedding without her guidance. She was the main reason why my dream wedding ran so smoothly. She even put all of the decorations correctly and truly listened to those small details I sent her. She did not overlook anything. Her attention to detail and her willingness to get stuff done is the reason why my guest was impressed. I was able to enjoy my special day because Meghan knew exactly what she was doing. She is the best wedding coordinator out there. I promise you that hiring Meghan is 100% worth the investment. If you don't book her than you are missing out!

You need Meghan in your life!

After a few months of planning, my now husband and I realized that we really needed a month of coordinator to make sure everything went down with as little stress as possible. We clicked with Meghan immediately, and I instantly felt more relaxed knowing that she was there to help. Meghan went with us to our final walk through, kept up with last minute changes, had good relationships with all of the vendors we chose, and most importantly, reminded us that we could choose or not choose to do whatever we had planned the day of our wedding/reception so we could relax and enjoy ourselves as much as possible. She was a pleasure to work with, and we will be referring everyone we know to her.

Do yourself a favor and hire Meghan! By far one of the best decisions we made as part of our wedding. Our venue actually required us to have a 'day of" coordinator and I couldn't of imagined doing it without her! She was amazing through the whole entire process and was extremely responsive and made herself available when needed. Our original wedding date was scheduled for 4/24 and we had to postpone due to COVID, but she was so supportive and was able to provide great guidance to help steer us through something that no one had really ever experienced. Day of she completely executed my vision of the set up and it surpassed what I had envisioned in my head, she kept us all on schedule and was always there when we needed her! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I met Meghan in 2019 to prep for my June 6 2020 wedding, which had to be postponed for COVID. She was really great to work with pre-wedding and I felt like I really vibed with her, so when we tried to book her at a later summer 2020 date we worked around her schedule and the venue's as she was that important to us. Planning a wedding during the uncertainty of COVID is a chaotic experience, and Meghan was so patient and kind with the constant changing of plans. She had fantastic and creative ideas to keep my 40 person wedding safe and socially distanced, and I can easily say she was a huge part in making my wedding the best day of my life. I worried about absolutely nothing on the day of the wedding and my now-husband and I didn't have to lift a finger or ask a single question as she took care of everything. She is so above and beyond just a wedding planner and I can't recommend her enough. Meghan is an amazing and kind person and I hope you are lucky enough to work with her.

If you're looking for a brilliant, experienced, knowledgeable, and utterly AMAZING wedding coordinator for your DC Metro area wedding, then you absolutely MUST talk to Meghan Farrar of Farrever After Events. Not only is Meghan completely organized, calming, and supportive in every way, but--due to her plethora of experience--she has so much wonderful insight and advice to provide to her brides throughout every stage of the wedding planning process. She quickly became more than a day-of-coordinator to my husband and I--she became our rock and calm in the midst of the storm of planning a wedding from across an ocean and away from many of our vendors. Hiring her was hands down one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process.

Beautiful waterfront venue

I got married in September 2018 and it was truly a beautiful day! The Osprey's is so gorgeous inside, with separate spaces for your reception dinner and the party! The outdoor space is so beautiful! It rained on my day so we had to move things inside. I was sad until I felt the intimacy of having my family and friends so close to me. The caterer we chose works with the venue so their service and collaboration with venue staff was seamless. Our coordinator Meghan was awesome, attentive and so professional. She worked with our personal coordinator to make sure the evening was perfect! We had the freedom to decorate and move about freely as we desired. Four months after our wedding, when having issues with the videographer we chose, I called Meghan for advice and support. Without hesitation, she contacted the videographer to help mitigate our concern! I would recommend this venue for the support they offered us from our initial tour, to booking our package, deciding how our day should flow and making sure we had everything we needed, down to the card box! People are still talking about it. Oh! AND we were 2 brides! We felt nothing but loved and welcomed!

I cannot say enough good things about the Osprey's - Meghan and Brooke were both amazing and made my wedding as stress-free as possible. This is the only venue in the area we found that included more than just the space for an affordable price. I had my heart set on an outdoor wedding, but it was pouring rain the day of and I was so glad we chose this venue! The indoor ceremony space was gorgeous and the rain drops on the huge windows gave it a very romantic feel. Meghan took care of everything the day of - if anything went wrong, I never knew about it. For someone who usually feels the need to be in control of everything, I felt completely comfortable handing over responsibilities to Meghan. It's all the little things that I never had to worry about - like putting wine in my car to take with us. I mentioned it and not two minutes later I saw Meghan grabbing the bottles for us. We were also able to drop off decorations a couple days before and didn't have to worry about set up or break down (including flipping the room from ceremony to dinner). She helped guide us through timelines, what's typical, and what works best. A+ venue with phenomenal staff!

My husband and I had the most perfect and beautiful wedding at the Osprey's yesterday. Our coordinator Meghan was fantastic and made sure that everything went smoothly and I didn't have to worry about anything in the planning process or especially on the day of. She helped me make final decisions and even responded immediately when I sent her a last minute change the night before. The venue is absolutely stunning and our guests raved about how beautiful it was outside and inside the venue. It was the perfect backdrop for our wedding and we especially loved how the reception dinner area is separate from the bar and dancing area.

My husband and I got married here and we could not have asked for a better venue or team of professionals. We had the perfect wedding and everything went off without a hitch. Our wedding coordinator, Meghan Farrar, was incredible and would respond to us within minutes. She was always willing to go the extra mile and was helpful in every way possible. We originally thought our ceremony would have to be inside because of rain, but Meghan arrived early to the venue and walked around in flip flops outside for us to make sure the ground was okay. They were willing to do anything for us to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams. The ceremony was so beautiful and the backdrop could was absolutely picture perfect. Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and we could not recommend the osprey's more!

I cannot recommend Meghan Farrar, from Farreverafter Events, highly enough for anyone seeking an exceptional wedding coordinator. From start to finish, Meghan demonstrated an incredible level of professionalism and dedication that truly made our wedding day perfect. Communication was a standout feature of her service. She was always just a phone call or email away, and her responses were consistently quick and thorough. This responsiveness was invaluable in keeping everything on track and easing any concerns we had along the way. She never complained about my million questions and/or emails. What truly set Meghan apart was her remarkable problem-solving skills. No matter the challenge - whether it was a last-minute vendor issue or a sudden change in plans - she handled everything with grace and efficiency. Her ability to think on her feet and provide effective solutions ensured that our special day went off without a hitch. Overall, Meghan was instrumental in making our wedding day run smoothly. Her attention to detail, proactive planning, and calm demeanor allowed us to relax and enjoy the day, knowing that everything was in expert hands. If you're looking for a wedding coordinator who is not only highly capable but also genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further than Meghan.

Meghan was so amazing!! I remember turning to my husband the day of our wedding and telling him that she was worth every single penny we spent to work with her. We had a phone consultation to make sure we all vibed, and then she came into play in the planning process about a month before the wedding. During that time, she went to our a venue for a walk- through (a meeting which my husband and I completely missed due to having the time down wrong, but she showed up for and completed anyway and was completely cool about it despite our many apologies). She kept me on track with reminders to make sure I got everything to her and the other vendors on time, and took care of every single thing the day-of. And I mean EVERYTHING. She met us at the venue and walked us all through the rehearsal the day before the wedding, and the day-of she got all of our decorations into the right places, handled all the vendors, and even brought me glasses of champagne when my hands were empty! Any time I needed her she was right there, and when I didn't, she was working invisibly on the sidelines somewhere. Many vendors commented on how I was such a "chill bride" on my wedding day, and I KNOW it was because I had Meghan there to handle everything. If I had to do it all again, I'd work with her every time!

Meghan was absolutely the best! Even though she was technically a day of coordinator, she responded to multiple frantic emails from me in the months preceding my wedding. I absolutely suck at planning and was completely overwhelmed at times but Meghan handled everything like a champ and always made me feel at ease. She was always so responsive and flexible. On my wedding day everything flowed so smoothly I did not have to worry about a thing. Even multiple members of my family commented on how great of a job she did.

Meghan was the planner for our daughter's wedding in July. She was AWESOME! We loved her warm personality and the time she took to make the day so special. She is very organized and pays great attention to details, and she had a timeline for the whole day so everything went so smoothly. She was always available when we had questions and offered excellent suggestions about every aspect of the day. She even organized the rehearsal the day before.

We lucked out having Megan as our day of coordinator! She was seriously the best and played a HUGE roll in making our wedding day a dream. There is no way we could have made the day, as well as the months leading up to it, as smooth and perfect as they were. We started planning our wedding living in a different state then the venue we fell in love with was in (998 miles away to be exact), so I was not able to come and visit before booking it, meaning I had to put a lot of trust in Meghan to answer all of my questions and give me as much information as possible to ease my nerves about booking a ceremony/reception venue without seeing it in person. Well let me tell you, she delivered!! She was so easy to communicate with and her response time was shockingly fast. I would reach out to her with an entire email full of questions and she had them all answered within a few hours at the latest, any day of the week. She sent me photos and asked all about my vision and ideas, and made it seem easy turning them into a reality. When we finally met Meghan, she made us feel so prepared for our wedding day and took all of our stress away. She worked so well with our vendors and coordinated everything with them, allowing us to relax and get ready for our big day with a peace of mind knowing that everything was taken care of. On the day of, you could tell how hard she was working to make everything perfect and meaningful, and that is exactly what she did. Her expertise in all things wedding related amazes me, and I still to this day get comments from family and our bridal party on how amazing Meghan was and how easy she made the entire process from start to finish. I HIGHLY recommend you add her to your wedding team, you will not regret it!!

The Osprey's was the perfect location for my wedding day! Working with Brooke initially was awesome as she answered all of our questions and gave us the tour, and then working with Meghan leading up to the big day was great too. She was always so responsive, which is EXACTLY what you need when planning a wedding. I didn't have to worry about much on the day of the wedding and felt at ease. We couldn't find the flower girl flowers, but with quick action, we improvised and made it happen. My husband also got some pretty bad bites on his neck; one simple ask to Meghan if she had any alcohol or any type of medicine to put on it, and magically, benadryl cream appeared! The venue is gorgeous with lots of space for guests to be inside or outside. We had games outside for cocktail hour and were able to put our own signage up around the venue for a personal touch.

After our initial call with Meghan, my (now) husband and I knew that we needed to hire her for our wedding. She spoke with a lot of confidence and experience, and her energy was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding coordinator.

In the planning stages, Meghan responded to emails promptly if we had any questions and her planning guide and recommended vendor directory were so helpful in keeping us organized throughout the planning process. We booked many vendors from that directory, and the day came together so well because of the cohesiveness of all the vendors.

The wedding day itself is where Meghan really shined. She got to our venue early and checked in to see how everything was going, and then immediately got to work. The ceremony and reception spaces were set up exactly how we imagined they would be, and set up was so ahead of schedule, we were even able to start ceremony 15 minutes early due to a threat of rain in the area. Throughout the reception, Meghan also checked in to make sure everything was going exactly how we wanted. And at the end of the night, she packed up all of our decor and organized the cleanup, so we were out of the venue in a flash and off to our after party back at the hotel.

I cannot emphasize how much Meghan went above and beyond, not just for my husband and me, but also for our guests, going as far as to get a toothpick from her car for one of our guests. With Meghan running the show, we were able to relax and fully enjoy our wedding day with our friends and family and not worry about a thing, because we knew she had everything under control.

Run, don't walk, to book her for your wedding!

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Meghan! She was the day-of coordinator for our 80-person wedding at Airlie in Warrenton VA and she did an amazing job! For the months leading up to our wedding she was always very responsive to all our questions, attended our walk-through and helped coordinate details with our venue as we got closer (30-45 days out), communicated our final timeline with all our vendors, and was all around incredibly organized, keeping us on track and prepared for the big day. Most importantly, on the day of our wedding Meghan managed everything behind the scenes so that we could have an stress-free day, keeping everyone and everything on track, executing on our vision perfectly. I should also mention that while Meghan is super organized and professional she is also fun to work with!! She has both a great personality and very direct style, which is the perfect combination (during what can be a stressful time for couples planning a wedding!) We would highly recommend Meghan and Farrever After Events!

We came to Meghan very late in the game because we didn't know that we would need a coordinator, and even though we were technically very behind, she was willing and able to jump on board and help us - and BOY did she help us. We were feeling extremely overwhelmed and a bit in over our heads. Right away Meghan rolled up her sleeves and gave us a very clear outline of exactly what she needed from us to deal with details big and small, all the way from our vendors and the venue, to the timeline of the day, down to setting up each piece of decor. The day was everything that we had dreamed of. It all went completely smoothly - and she was just also so lovely and nice to work with. We cannot recommend her enough. THANK YOU so much, Meghan!

We had no hesitations about working with Meghan for our wedding reception and knew we were in good hands when we booked her as our day of coordinator! She was knowledgeable about our venue and we trusted her experience. As part of her services she provided a welcome packet, vendor list, and other helpful resources that we referred to many times during our planning. Meghan always responded extremely quickly to all of our questions, updates or changes, and was on top of every detail. She executed our vision for the venue's set up flawlessly and kept everything running smoothly the entire night. We had a great experience working with her and highly recommend her to any couples looking for a day of coordinator or planner.

From the moment my now husband and I met Meghan we knew we wanted her to be our wedding coordinator. Meghan gave us a tour of the venue we ended up choosing and her enthusiasm, authenticity, and confidence not only sold us on the gorgeous venue but on her as well. I cannot express enough how personable, funny, and kind Meghan is which makes trusting her with your special day an easy task. Leading up to the wedding Meghan was so gracious answering all of my many questions and being supportive in any way she could. All the paperwork she sends gave me amazing guidelines on everything from choosing vendors to tipping. I can genuinely say I would not have had as much fun at my wedding as I did without her. In the weeks/days leading up to the wedding Meghan organized ALL my vendors flawlessly to ensure they were on the same page and knew their roles for the day of. The day of execution of all vendors setting up went flawlessly and Meghan setup all my decor and centerpieces beautifully. It is truly a talent to bring someone else's vision to life and that is exactly what she did. Not to mention she was checking in on me and my husband throughout to make sure we had eaten, had drinks, and that we were doing okay! She also helped me with changing out of my dress later in the night! I can honestly say Meghan was the BEST decision I ever made. She really is just an awesome person and excels at her job because she truly wants to make your wedding special. So many of my guests came up to me to express how impressed they were with Meghan and that they wish they had someone like her at their wedding. I'm telling you right now, HIRE HER if you want to experience an epic wedding day.

I'm so glad we decided to go with Meghan as our coordinator. Prior to the big day, her checklists and guides were very helpful in keeping us organized and reminding us when to have certain tasks done. Her communication was always super fast and answered any questions we had efficiently. On wedding day, she was instrumental in keeping everything in line and on time. She was very attentive to our needs, making sure we were never hungry/thirsty or wanting for anything. Everything ended up going very smoothly and we had the best day ever!

Meghan was nothing but amazing to work with. Her checklists and guides made planning so much easier and included a lot of things I didn't even think to consider. She was quick to respond to any and all questions we had, which helped decrease my stress level drastically lol. Our day went by without any issues all thanks to Meghan. We truly appreciated her approach to planning, ideas and all of the support she gave us. Meghan made our planning experience enjoyable, and we highly recommend her!

Meghan was great! 5/5

We hired Meghan as a day-of coordinator and she was very responsive to all my questions, her wedding checklist was super helpful, and she had a wealth of wedding planning knowledge which we were lacking. On our final walkthrough, she was sick but video called in and made the best out of it. She was fantastic on our wedding day as well, keeping everything running smoothly and on schedule -- our guests were impressed by how well-organized everything was!

​Our wedding coordinator, Meghan Farrar, was extremely organized and detail-oriented from start to finish. She stood out immediately among the other coordinators we spoke with because she was very professional, refreshingly blunt in the best way, and incredibly quick to respond. Her communication was clear, thorough, and reliable, which gave us a lot of confidence throughout the planning process.

On the day of the wedding, Meghan worked tirelessly to ensure everyone and everything was in the right place. One of the biggest highlights was how seamlessly she handled the end of the night - she packed up all of our belongings and had everything loaded into the U-Haul by the time we needed to be out of the venue. We barely had to lift a finger and were able to enjoy ourselves and dance the night away while she managed everything behind the scenes.

We had a tremendous amount of details and decorations, as my mom DIYed everything, and Meghan handled all of our items with extreme care. She followed our special requests closely, including making sure we received extra cake, which we truly appreciated.

All of our vendors spoke very highly of Meghan, which says a lot. She genuinely had our backs, was always available to help, and consistently provided detailed, thoughtful responses. She was an excellent resource for additional services, extremely knowledgeable, and often brought up things we hadn’t even considered. She also helped refine and shape a few of our ideas so they could be executed at a top-tier level.

Bottom line: we had a great experience and would absolutely use Meghan Farrar again. She played a huge role in making our wedding a success - and it’s very clear why she has won so many awards.

Meghan was a dream to work with. I had no intentions of hiring a day of coordinator but not only does Meghan offer officiant services she also can allow family or friends to officiate while she does day of coordination. Literally a dream come true. From every single detail Meghan came in and took charge of all our set up and issues (this bride was not feeling well and she had ideas for how to deal with). Meghan is nothing but professional and flexible at every turn. I can't wait to work with her again. Our venue, Hummingbird, and all our vendors also raved about her.

Meghan is a dream to work with! I had no idea how to coordinate a timeline for a wedding and how vital it was to ensure the day running smoothly. Meghan asked all the questions necessary to fill out the timeline but also had the quickest response time I have ever seen when I had random questions. She is extremely accommodating, helpful, and knows when to get people into action. I had a DIY wedding. I mean Boxes upon BOXES of decor and she instructed me in the best way to help her set up for the reception. I followed her guidelines and we reviewed it together on rehearsal day. She knows how to set herself up for success. She hardly asked me anything during my getting ready for my wedding. It was the most magical day and I am forever grateful for her. Without her I would have been bridezilla, tearing through the tent setting up my own decor and possibly burning it down. She is the most capable, organized and driven person I have had the pleasure of working with. Thank you Farrever After Events!

All I can say is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! When looking at venues, we fell in love with the Osprey's! It's so beautiful inside and out and just a perfect location right on the water to take the most gorgeous pictures! Our coordinator was Meghan and she was the cherry on top to our whole experience. She was quick to respond to any emails or questions I had and made our wedding day flow smoothly with our timeline that we wanted. Very detailed and is a pro at what she does! She checked in on us, made sure our decor was all in the right place, worked closely with our dj, packed up all of our stuff at the end of the night, you name it she did it! I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone and would absolutely book again for other events! Our guests kept saying how beautiful the venue was, how much fun they had and how organized it all was.

My son, Garret, and his bride, Linh, had their wedding at the Osprey on September 8, 2018 and it was absolutely amazing! The ceremony was outside in front of the water and the view was beautiful. Meghan Farrar and her team did a phenomenal job setting up inside and out. As mother of the groom and the one who created all the flower arrangements and organized the decorations, I had many questions. Being that I live In Pennsylvania, it was tough for me because I wasn't local; Meghan immediately responded to my emails, answering questions and getting me measurements. I was concerned about getting things set up perfectly, but also I wanted to enjoy my son's special day. Meghan made sure everything was beautiful and once I saw what they had done I was amazed! The Osprey at Belmont Bay made Garrett and Linh's dream wedding come true. The Osprey is an absolutely beautiful venue and Meghan and her staff thoughtful, creative and professional.

We had a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception at The Osprey's! All of our guests were very impressed with the venue. I'm not going to lie, it was frustrating finding the right venue to hold such an important day at. While many other venues were impossible to even get an inquiry response from, Brooke answered the phone right away and set up a tour for us just a few days following. I knew right away that we didn't have to look any further. The Osprey's provided us an In-house coordinator, Meghan, who was the best at helping me every step of the way! I was calling and emailing her on a weekly basis and she helped with things from suggesting the perfect caterer to finding someone to make my table seating mirror for me just a few days prior to the wedding. She went above and beyond!

The Osprey's was the absolute perfect choice for our wedding. First of all, it's stunning: the view of the bay from their pergola is unbeatable and it was the perfect ceremony site. Plus their sprawling lush green grounds only add to the wonderful backdrop. Inside the building is no exception either; their huge dance floor and bar area made our guests very happy! And the dining room is beautiful. We had more than enough room for everything and had a lot of creative freedom with what we wanted to decorate. Many of our guests 'commented on how much they liked this venue. Meghan was amazing and such a pleasure to work with. She is smart, fast, organized, flexible and communicative. We had nothing to worry about in her hands- she made everything really easy on us. You can tell she cares about each and every person she works with. She supported and helped bring our wedding vision to life! The whole Osprey's team is great and super helpful and hardworking. I would have my next event there in a heartbeat and I recommend this venue to anyone!!!

Meghan was absolutely fantastic to deal with. She took our newb planning brains and created magic with them. Also, it was a windy day on our wedding day and our seating chart shattered. But did I know about it? Nope! Because Meghan went out of her way to make sure a new one was delivered before I could even notice. True professionalism, great vibes, much fluidity, would 11/10 times reccommend!

Meghan was absolutely outstanding as our wedding coordinator. As an LGBT couple, we were cautious about choosing the right coordinator that would support our relationship.

Meghan was the fairy godmother I didn't know I needed. She went above and beyond. My husband and I wanted a very small, low key gathering with pressure from family for the exact opposite. Meghan helped us be comfortable and confident while making everything classy and beautiful. Best of both worlds without compromising what we wanted. I was a very unknowledgeable bride and she made me feel at ease every step of the way.

I was the matron of honor for my best friends wedding. To say she was stressed was an understatement. Meghan was there every step of the way, making sure that we had everything we needed to make the day/night perfect..and it was. She checked in multiple times throughout the day making sure she had everything she needed and made everything beyond seem less and beautiful. She was light-hearted and professional and it made the bride completely at ease. My gratitude for her service goes beyond words.

Easy Going and Professional Day-of Coordinator

Meghan was the perfect day-of coordinator for our wedding. My bride and I did a lot of the wedding ourselves, so Meghan's extra pair of hands and set of eyes were a critical factor making our wedding run smoothly and keeping our blood pressure low. She helped make sure a lot of the little things were taken care of so we didn't even need to think about them. She was professional and easy going. I would recommend Meghan to anyone getting married and looking for a day-of coordinator.

I cannot begin to thank Meghan and the Osprey's for how wonderful and easy they made my wife and I's special day. I was blown away by how seamlessly professional and kind they were throughout our entire planning process. Their vendors list is superb and their ability to accomodate change is simply heroic. As if the utterly gorgeous views were not enough Meghan and the rest of the staff made my wife and I feel welcome. I do not believe there is a way to quantify that. All I can do is again say that I am grateful. The floor in the dance hall next to an absolutely stunning bar made the perfect backdrop for a scrumptiously romantic first dance. Prior to the wedding my family experienced the huge loss of my grandfather. The Ospreys helped us to organize a memorial for him the foyer that made it truly feel like he was there. The atmosphere was so inviting that even my grandmother shared a dance with us. There are no words my to describe my gratitude for the attention to detail and personal care that we reieved every step of the way! We cannot wait to come visit again!

I just got married at The Osprey's and I have to say it was a great experience. The venue itself is beautiful inside and outside. It's a dream for pictures. And beyond that Brooke and Meghan are absolutely wonderful. There wasn't an email either of them missed. Meghan was my wedding coordinator and she made sure every detail was covered. Meghan kept my wedding running smoothly and kept everything on track. These girls really know what they are doing. Plus they have a lot of great vendors they will recommend to you if you need help which was a huge success for me. Pricing was definitely reasonable.
