We started our planning process thinking that a day of coordinator was unnecessary. Our wedding was…read more75 people and we were very organized. But all our married friends told us we were wrong and needed one. Now, we understand and are so happy to have hired Erin. Our wedding was super DIY and everything would not have come together so wonderfully without her. Erin juggled countless roles working 11.5 hours the day of the wedding to make sure everything went perfectly. She set-up our entire ceremony and reception space. For example, we handed her a pile of glass bottles and grocery stores flowers along with a rough sketch of what we wanted, and she turned that into these stunning centerpieces. She also coordinated with our various vendors throughout the day -- making sure they arrived on time and had everything they needed. During the wedding itself, Erin was toiling away behind the scenes to make sure everything ran smoothly. She queued our ceremony music, directed guests during dinner, coordinated clean-up, and so much more. Erin has a great work process for making sure she has all the detail she needs the day of the wedding. All of that planning and organization enabled us to relax and just enjoy our wedding day knowing she had it handled. We wanted someone who would come in to execute our detailed vision, and Erin did that beautifully. However she's also able to help brainstorm and help organize the planning process if that's what you need. Hiring Erin was easily one of the best decisions we made and worth what we spent a million time over.

I hesitated to write this review because on the whole Erin worked very hard on my daughter's…read morewedding. My initial assessment was that she was doing a great job. And much of what she did do was terrific and impressive. She's very organized and very energetic. I have concerns about recommending her however. She had some erratic behavior during the wedding as well as a weird inflexibility to adjust schedules or alter plans as it became clear they weren't working. The best examples: At one point I came up behind her during the dinner and touched her arm to get her attention. She spun around and yelled 'don't touch me'. This wasn't a #metoo moment. This was one woman lightly touching another woman on the shoulder. It was beyond an inappropriate response. It was abnormal. The ceremony and dinner went much more quickly than we had planned. People were done eating and at 8:00 they were just sitting, the party was losing energy with just quiet DJ music. Time for our band to start. I asked her to have them come out and start playing. She refused. Her stated reason being that 'the schedule' had them for 8:30. She claimed that the musicians were eating. I went and found them sitting and doing nothing, they were happy to play. (Even declining offered extra pay for the additional 30 minutes) Erin was clearly irate, whether at the usurpation of her authority or because she couldn't handle a change, I don't know but again, odd behavior and certainly not in the best interests of a fun wedding celebration. A third example. The ceremony took place outdoors facing a beautiful pond and garden. At the walkthrough the evening before, it became clear that the spot that had been selected months before and which Erin had marked out on the grass would result in the guests staring directly into the sun. It seemed obvious and a no-brainer that we wouldn't want to have people squinting and uncomfortable. I expected her to say 'oh no, you're right, let's figure this out'. Instead she just kept repeating 'this is what was planned, this is what was planned, it can't be changed, it can't be changed.' This was an especially ridiculous response in that the situation was easily remedied with only a slight movement of location and angle. I was fairly shocked that her immediate response was not one of problem solving, but rather intractability and irritation. I offer my experience with her as I saw it. I want to be completely fair because she did work very hard and overall did a very good job. She is clearly very competent but I did see things that were troubling.

I travel a lot and don't have time for a lot of simple things like dry cleaning drop off and food shopping. The first time I hired Lisa, I was planning a party for my parents' anniversary and she and her team were amazing! From finding the venue, to the decor, caterers and invitations, I couldn't have done it without her. The event was amazing and I really wowed everyone! Since then, Lisa has done so many time saving things from me - running the gamut from dry cleaning to picking up groceries. Lisa actually takes time to pick out the freshest produce and meats, and I don't have to run all over town for my specialty items. Next up... she's going to help me organize my family photos. Seriously, this woman is a life saver!

Have you watched Hoarders before? Occasionally there are people who used to be tidy and organized…read moreand then something traumatic happened in their lives and they transformed into hoarders. Well, I had a similar experience to a much, much, much lesser extent. After life punched me in the face, I let go of my hyper-organized, neat self for a few months and just let mess and chaos consume me. When I picked myself up, I looked at my room and just didn't even know where to begin. I realized I had wandered into uncharted territory of mess that I've just never experienced. Enter Pat. She came in and swiftly assessed my situation and got to work right away. When I got sidetracked, she put me back on focus. I thought I would have trouble throwing things out but I actually didn't. I really just needed someone to help me and provide moral support and Pat wonderfully did that. Can I be honest? The best part is that she folded all my clothes! She also helped me rearrange my room in a way that would optimize space efficiency and gave me a few pointers on how to store things. Storage is a challenge in my room. I'm knocking off one star only because I think it's a bit pricey for what I was looking for. If you are someone who is generally organized and just needs a little help, I would recommend scoping out your options for pricing. In the Boston area, it seems like her her hourly rate is standard, but there are some who have lower minimum hourly bases, some who offer discounts, and some who have lower rates all together. Those who have lower rates tend to have less experience and credentials, but I think I would've been okay with that. With that said, if you need help with a large project or is someone who has struggled with organization, I would totally recommend her. She is definitely very pleasant to work with and takes her time in explaining everything and answering all your questions. My positive interactions with her over the phone was what ultimately won me over, even though price wise she was the most expensive on my life.

From the moment I spoke to Pat Bernabei I felt at ease with the enormous tasks at hand. My elderly mother, who was not able to get settled into her new home until her furniture, dishes and clothes arrived, had been anxiously awaiting to start her new life in Massachusetts. Pat immediately had everything under control, including staying on top of the moving company as the truck made its way across the country. We needed to get my mother unpacked as quickly as possible. On move-in day, Pat was our designated point person and organized the unpacking like the pro she clearly is. Miraculously, all was unpacked and put away in a single day! And Pat even cleared away the boxes so there was no clutter in the new apartment. Pat also took the initiative of sending to the moving company a picture of a dresser they had damaged during the move. She is simply on top of it all! For anyone needing to get organized, for anyone needing to help a senior citizen move to another city or state, Pat of Sort it Out is the answer to all your worries. She will get it done and it will be done perfectly.

We came out with a game plan on which rooms, closets and drawers would be revamped...No stone was left unturned. They really listen to your needs and work with you to help you meet your goals. The plan worked in sessions starting with decluttering and making piles of what should stay, go or be donated. They do the work but you make the decisions. After that they assign categories for your items and Stasia comes to draw out a design. Once you approve they begin installing and placing your items in their new homes! Now my rooms have function and my junk is good as gone! The peace of mind an organized house brings is indescribable. This team is extraordinary and I am so grateful I found them. Thank you so so much to Abby the wonderfully fantastic team leader, Charlotte and Sophie the meticulous organizers, Marianna the powerhouse builder and Stasia the genius master designer of it all!

I had to move my aging mother suddenly and during the move I did not have time to sort out all of her belongings. I simply dumped it into a room my house. I tried numerous times to tackle this project but there was so much and too many feelings attached too much of it. In the span of aa few hours Judy was able to help me sort out what to keep, what to get rid of. I trusted her taste and opinion. She was very empathetic, yet very pragmatic. I especially liked her suggestion to simply enjoy my mother's china on my table whenever I wanted and not to save it for special occasions as I was brought up. Judy made this organizing project easy, fun and shockingly productive. If you are looking to downsize, organize or simply get your house in order, I highly recommend Judy Hersch and her company All Together Now.

Judy is a pleasure to work with and she didn't blink an eye when we uncovered ancient receipts and appliances that I didn't even know that I owned. I will have Judy back in the not too distant future. I feel motivated to lighten my household load and judging by my basement, she and I will be spending some hours together.

I get to the house and it's very chaotic, no signs or directions just people entering and exiting this house who probably shouldn't be. No one standing at the front to greet people. Finally found someone to help me only to find out they did not have my planter. I was told it was likely that "a crazy hoarder lady" who was there earlier likely stole it. I was beyond furious. I drove two hours and wasted a tank of gas then had to drive another two hours home. Then the employee had the nerve to suggest I drive to this crazy lady house who stole my planter and try to get it back! I asked her how someone was able to enter the home take what didn't belong to them. It was obvious they were just letting people into the house and no one was managing item pick ups in an orderly process that one might expect. Imagine trusting these people when they are just letting random people unsupervised into the home. I was told I would just be reimbursed if they couldn't find it. If I did find it, they wanted me to drive back down to get it (another 4 hrs driving and a tank of gas) because "it would cost a fortune to ship it". After I explained I would not be taking another day off work, driving another 4 hours to pick up a planter she agreed she would ship it if they found it. Well as you can imagine she just reimbursed me the $11 and call it a day. Absolutely disgusted with these people! Unprofessional, untrustworthy and incompetent. I wouldn't suggest trusting them to manage estates or anything else!
