Wife, dog mom, cancer fighter and abuse survivor - I've seen a lot in my short years and now I'm on a journey to help everyday women feel like beautiful works of art and masterpieces in their bodies and within their life because guess what?? That's what you are!!
I absolutely LOVE being able to work with so many amazing vendors in the wedding industry like Andrea Hopkins over at Perfection Wedding Coordination in Pearl MS! She is a wedding planner, as well as the owner and lead of a 19 member wedding & event planning and coordination team! Be sure to check out the Vendor Feature Video on IGTV but you can also read about Andrea and the PWC team below!
Andrea has been married for 15 (almost 16!) years and has two amazing daughters. And like many wedding vendors it seems the wedding industry chose her, rather than the other way around!
In college, one of her classmates got engaged and remembered how Andrea had mentioned before how she’d love to be a wedding planner. She had never planned a wedding before, Andrea took a leap of faith to plan her friend’s wedding in 2008 and has been loving it ever since! “It just fell in my lap and I rolled with it!”
Of course, one of her favorite parts about being a wedding planner is her clients. She loves the end result and seeing their face when it all comes together! For her, it’s TRULY all about the clients, and that makes one of the most difficult parts of her job is the wedding guests. They often don’t realize that her and her team are just making the BRIDE’S wedding dreams come true. Sometimes that means doing something that the guests wouldn’t have selected for themselves. But she just focuses on the fact that it’s the bride’s wedding day, and she’s there for the bride and anything she needs, not the guests.
While I was chatting with her, she remarked how she loved that her brides were so kind. Most brides worry about their guests or bridal party more than themselves. Andrea and her team are always there to be an advocate for the bride and solve any problems that arise so the bride can fully enjoy her day! The PWC team helps remind each bride they work with that it’s HER wedding day and they’re going to make sure they do everything they can to serve her well! “You only get a wedding day one time, so you want to make sure that you enjoy that day!”
If you follow PWC on social media, you KNOW they have a blast at all of their weddings! Wedding planning can be stressful so Andrea and the PWC team do everything they can to take the stress away and make the day fun! But, they never forget that pulling of a wedding of each bride’s dreams is a lot of work, and they are always extremely professional so that they can serve their clients well. “You can anticipate to have a good time and to get what you expected from us!”
Most brides don’t realize that you see your planner and photographer more than you even see your spouse on the wedding day! However, it’s important that you click with your vendors who you’re going to be spending the most time with!
With a team of 19, Andrea is able to serve SO many brides! But that doesn’t mean you’re just going to get paired with a random planner from PWC. Andrea pays special attention to what staff members and planners she pairs with each bride so that the chemistry is there and the bride can feel comfortable and trust who she’s working with! “Every bride is different – some are very independent, some are shy, some are outgoing. On wedding days I want to make sure that the right staff and their personality is paired with the right bride! I think it’s important for every client to have the right person paired with them.”

So true that you see your photographer and wedding planner on your wedding day more than you see anyone else!! Andrea doesn’t have a team out on the west coast, does she? Haha might be a stretch!
YES! Brides often don’t realize how involved the planner and photographer are in your wedding day! LOL she doesn’t have a team on the west coast but I’m sure she would be willing to discuss traveling!
Love your content! So much good information!
Thanks so much Natalie! I hope to continue to provide good content for all my viewers!
Wish I could hire Andrea as my wedding coordinator right now but I’m already married! Love how you endorse other hard working small businesses!
I love working with other wedding vendors – it’s one of my favorite parts about weddings! I can’t tell you how many brides (including myself!!) literally plan everything themselves and then in the end regret not hiring a planner/coordinator! I hope that I can help educate brides so others won’t make the same mistake!
