    Rev. Anne officiated our wedding a couple of weeks ago. She was helpful and organized during the planning process and helped us come up with a personalized ceremony that was just perfect. She helped us to weave in quotes, readings, and even a special "family circle" to include my daughter. On wedding day, things weren't going as planned due to issues with the venue, but Anne stepped in to keep things calm and flowing as well as possible. For the ceremony itself, things went even better than expected. Our guests raved about Anne and the ceremony. We got so many wonderful comments about her and got a lot of requests for her info, which we happily gave. Choosing "The Rev for Whatev" was one of the best wedding decisions we made and I can't recommend her enough!

    Oh my gosh!!! I cannot state enough how grateful I am that Rev. Anne and her team pulled through for me to make my wedding fantastic! So my boyfriend asked me to marry him on Dec 14th and he wanted to do it on.... New Years Eve! I thought this was a totally cool idea, but worried I wouldn't be able to get the details together in time. I called Rev. Anne right away the following Monday. By Tuesday, we had spoken and worked it all out. She would not be able to do it, but assigned Rev. Val to conduct my wedding. I really loved that Anne was in contact with me several times, following up and making sure everything was confirmed for the big day. On NYE, I met Val at the Willis Tower. She was super sweet and awesome! I loved that she was totally professional and had a "take charge" attitude. There were several moments when my 30 guests were getting a little rambunctious so she did a great job counting out everyone, ensuring I purchased enough tickets and helping get everyone up to the Skydeck. She was great! I totally appreciate her patience. It was a little more crazy than I anticipated with all the guests and pictures. She was my source of calm and didn't skip a beat. This is a great service and I highly recommend Anne / Val or her team for anyone needing someone to conduct their service. Thanks again! It was so amazing!

    Rev. Anne officiated our wedding last month, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful she was to work with. From our first chat over the phone, she was kind, warm, and open. We had some non-traditional requests that she handled without batting an eye, and that meant so much to us. She wrote an absolutely beautiful ceremony for us, one that we felt truly represented us as a couple, and she took the time to get to know us and add some personal touches that made us laugh and cry. Her presence at the rehearsal and ceremony was both professional and extremely comforting. We had many of our very traditional relatives say it was the best and most meaningful wedding ceremonies they had ever been to. Our ceremony was the highlight of the day, and most definitely the closest to our hearts. We are so lucky to have found Rev. Anne, and we are so looking forward to our paths crossing again!

    Rev. Anne was amazing and so easy to work with for our wedding. She put together a customized set of wedding vows for our ceremony. She was able to incorporate all we wanted in the ceremony and perfectly captured our relationship after just a short meeting. She was always accessible via email and all steps of the way were explained. Prices were well explained and very reasonable. Our rehearsal and wedding day were perfect. Rev. Anne was a very integral part of it and was funny, professional, yet laid back- everything we wanted. I highly recommend using the Rev for Whatev services. Thank you Rev. Anne!

    Anne is so awesome. She is the consummate demonstration of professional and charismatic. She blended seamlessly into the social milieu. She made us both feel so comfortable and at ease. She was flexible and open with the ceremony prep, and she was flexible and open during the wedding. I couldn't have asked for more. I give her my highest and rarest of recommendations. What a gem!

    Anne, and after seeing that she named her business The Rev for Whatev, I knew she was just what we wanted.

My sister (and MOH) is a day-of coordinator herself, as is a close friend from college, and both of them strongly suggested I do it - they made the point that most venue coordinators only really care about their operations and place of business, and their main focus is not your details. I am SO GLAD I took their advice, and so glad I came across Abryanna. At the point I hired her, she had done just a few weddings, but from her professionalism and sunny demeanor, it was obvious she was meant for this. She provided great insight and advice throughout the process, and I appreciate her work for my new husband and I. Her biggest value truly came the wedding day, though. She kept everything running smoothly, finalized venue setup while we were all in hair/makeup, and headed up the team effort to put out a rather large fire just before the ceremony, and kept the flames at bay during the reception. That last part was invaluable to me, as it was a worry throughout the planning year that came true, even though no one believed me it would. I had expressed this concern to Abryanna, and she was prepared. I HIGHLY recommend her services as a coordinator, and if you aren't organized and "with -it," she offers full planning as well!

We contracted them for two months of design work ahead of the date and received nothing for the first month. We prodded them through their frustrating website (the only means of communication since we never got any sort of direct email address) and when we did finally receive a mood board it was 6-8 images of items that were all clearly pulled from a single search on their preferred vendor website. We ended up doing all the decor planning and transportation ourselves so this was a complete waste. We only met our day-of coordinator a week or so ahead of the day and while Emily was professional and courteous Gina basically missed the whole meeting on the phone with someone else as we could hear through the video call. In the end bc we had done all the planning and transport ourselves and our venue coordinator had done all the logistics work with our vendors there wasn't much to do on the day. We found out later through social media they're contracting 3 or more weddings per weekend so if you want any sort of personal attention, look elsewhere. They're clearly optimizing for quantity over quality.

We planned and payed for our whole wedding ourselves and with Gina's help as our day of coordinator, our day was better than we ever could have imagined. Everything that Gina and her associate did to set up was absolutely stunning and she thought of everything. She was so calm and collected and that was priceless, as it helped keep me grounded. She was detailed oriented and made sure everything was set up to our liking. My husband and I both haven't stopped telling each other that hiring Gina was the best decision we made in planning since the day we first spoke to her. We felt an immense weight lifted off our shoulders since the day we hired her and the impact she had on our big day was massive. Would highly highly recommend!

    My husband and I hired Barb for full service coordination and planning shortly after we got engaged…read moreand it was, hands-down, the best decision I made regarding my wedding. Originally, we were shopping for a day-of coordinator only. I was receiving ridiculously expensive quotes from coordinators. Then, I had one of those beams-of-sunny-heaven-with-angels-singing-in-falsetto moments, when I came across Just Ducky Events. It was so reasonably priced, that we opted for full-service coordination. Our experience was remarkable. Barb went above and beyond what was listed in her contract. She attended a wedding tradeshow with me to brainstorm ideas, met with my vendors, pushed and haggled for better prices, and had incredible aesthetic sense. She was most helpful with her consistency. My now-husband and I have a pretty busy schedule and she didn't hesitate to remind me of what needs to get done by what date, which was exactly what I needed. She had no problem playing "bad-cop". I had a little trouble with my photographer at first, and Barb was more than willing to get in touch with her and resolve my issue. Also, the day before my wedding, I called Barb in near-tears because my officiant (a stubborn family member) was changing the ceremony without my approval. I bugged her in the middle of dinner and she made time to talk to me. She listened to me rant and allowed me to have a bridezilla moment, but then offered some incredible advice on how to proceed dealing with this person. There were other hiccups throughout my wedding but Barb had them under control before I even found out about them. I had my dream wedding and it was largely thanks to Barb Duckworth. I could not have asked for a better planner & coordinator.

I must say that I am so grateful that this other bride left her review for me to read. Barb absolutely made my wedding everything I could have dreamed of. I am a very detailed / organized person, so I had a specific vision of what my wedding would look like. Along with that were countless details that I made or had made to help make our wedding more personal. Barb really took charge and made sure all of my details were noticed. Not only did Barb help to make my wedding look beautiful, but she also helped to create our timeline of events and ensured that we kept on schedule. She made sure that all of our vendors were paid and tipped and went back to our hotel to retrieve forgotten keys so that she could help to pack up our car after the wedding reception ended. I was thinking about the saying, "She went the extra mile", but in this case Barb went the extra marathon worth of miles. I would recommend her to anyone getting married. We loved her and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without her. Hire her, you won't be disappointed!
