Testimonials

“I wanted to share a huge thank you for the incredible work Tonya and her team did for our event! The food was absolutely delicious! We’ve received so many compliments from our guests on the appetizers and the vodka-sauce pasta! Everything was served perfectly and the quality was top-notch. Beyond the menu, the table decorations were stunning. She truly captured the exact vibe we were going for, and the attention to detail in the styling made the room feel so elegant and welcoming. It took a huge weight off my shoulders knowing the aesthetic was in such capable hands, especially day of with the lack of programs and other random hiccups! But she took care of all of it and it was so appreciated!”

“Tonya is absolutely amazing to work with! My day was perfect in every way! The food was delicious!!”

“We can’t recommend Tonya and her team enough! The food was absolutely delicious, our guests loved every bite and everything was beautifully presented — there was so much food served and guests are still raving about it. Tonya and her husband came the day before to help set up, was attentive to every detail, and even allowed us to use her centerpieces, which saved us money and looked wonderful. On the wedding day, her husband and her staff were fantastic: professional, friendly, and so easy to work with. They were constantly coming to all the tables to ensure everyone was pleased and were very very respectful. We are so grateful for all she did to make our wedding day perfect! I would recommend Tonya to anyone and everyone that is in need of a caterer for their wedding day. Tonya and her team truly went above and beyond.”

“Tonya is the best!! My husband and I can’t even begin to put in to words how grateful we are to have found her and her husband. From the first moment I talked to her I was at so much peace. We went into wedding planning on a pretty tight budget and I was worried she would say ‘that’s not possible.’ But instead she was so understanding and comforting and truly helped us achieve the wedding of my dreams. She has so many resources, so much advice, and don’t even get us started on the food!! Phenomenal — everyone at our wedding was OBSESSED. We love you so much Tonya and David, thank you for going above and beyond for our special day.”

“I do not know where to begin — from the moment I met Tonya I knew she and her husband were for us. Sweet, kind, very informational. In the beginning we needed recommendations on other vendors like DJ, cake suggestions. She gave us all the info plus more. Not only was the food absolutely amazing, the free decor you get was a dream come true! Tonya definitely knows what she is doing! We still have guests telling us how amazing the food was! I definitely would recommend YDYW — 10 out of 10.”

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Tonya helped make our wedding day everything we dreamed of. From the food, to setting up the tables exactly how we wanted, to taking the time to answer every single question and be there every step of the way. Could not have had the same outcome without her. Highly recommend her and her team!”

“Great company and outstanding customer service. Tonya worked with us directly for a little over a year and a half and it was a great experience. She has so much knowledge and experience and helped us so much. She saved us so much money and let us use her décor at no charge. Now let’s talk about the food — wow is the word that comes to mind. Normally wedding food is either bad or just ok. Tonya’s food was so incredibly delicious. Guests from our wedding are still talking about our food and we got married March 15, 2025. Lastly, I just want to say truly working with Tonya, Your Day Your Way and her team was the best decision we made for our wedding. She cares so much and made sure everything was so magical on our special day — it was truly our real life fairy tale and we will always cherish it forever. We are forever grateful for Tonya and her team!”

“To say Tonya and her staff go above and beyond for her staff, families and everyone at any event is an understatement. There is a reason she has been in business for so long! The food is absolutely amazing and the wedding venues have been absolutely beautiful. Keep up the good work Tonya and staff!”

“We are so grateful we chose Your Day Your Way Weddings! Tonya and her team were an absolute joy to work with and played such a huge role in making our wedding day everything we hoped for and more. We received so many compliments on the food! Everything was delicious, beautifully presented, and exactly what we wanted. Tonya gave us fantastic recommendations throughout the planning process and always made us feel like we were in great hands. She also went above and beyond by letting us borrow some of her decor, which added the perfect finishing touches and brought our vision together beautifully. On top of all that, she made sure the entire day ran smoothly. From behind-the-scenes logistics to the little details, Tonya handled it all with such ease and professionalism we didn’t have to worry about a thing. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, Tonya is your person.”

“Great job Tonya. We have used Tonya for 2 events now, a Bridal Shower and my Wedding and I couldn’t be more pleased. For the shower, she gave us such creative ideas and everyone loved them. For the wedding, I can’t say enough. She allowed my day to be stress free and I never had an empty drink. Her staff is beyond amazing and the food people are still talking about — Mozzerella Stuffed Meatballs were better than my own Italian Mother’s (don’t tell her that-lol). My recommendation — hire her now, before she is booked for your event.”

“First class act, I decided to work with Tonya from Your Day Your Way Weddings & Events and my experience was more than I expected. I told her I needed to stay under my $15,000 budget for 175 guests total with everything including DJ, Photographer, food, drinks, dress, invitations, cake, flowers and everything else. My finance said I should of never said how much my budget was because he said they will spend everything up to that amount; however that was not the case. Tonya got everything done for almost $2,000 under budget and we were able to take the honeymoon we never thought we could afford. She even negotiated a price for that so we saved money on our honeymoon. Since we were so grateful for the savings, we decided to send her a ‘Thank You’ check for the remaining balance after the honeymoon in the amount of $547.25 and a very nice handwritten thank you card. When we arrived back from our honeymoon, we received the check back along with a handwritten letter from her thanking us for the opportunity to help us. She told us she was keeping the thank you card and that was all that was necessary and returned our check so we can use it for our future life together. She is a warm, caring person who helped us have the wedding we never thought we could have. She will forever handle all of our events whether they are birthdays, baby showers (hopefully in the future), anniversaries, etc. My advice, call her now before she is booked for your date as she won’t take more than one bride per day to give you her full attention — she is wonderful, organized and will help you achieve the most perfect day. First class — all the way.”

“Tonya was awesome to work with. She was responsive, attentive, and made sure to get the job done. She put any and all worries at ease and handled any issues that came up. She was organized and helped get our wedding party down the aisle. We had only hired her as a day of coordinator, but she helped take care of so many other details prior to the wedding. She also worked hard to find deals/save money for you. She helped make my day less stressful, which was so appreciated!”

“I have used Tonya for several events now, a Bridal Shower, Wedding and an Anniversary Party — great is all I can say. She does a great job, very efficient and creative. She came in under budget and allowed me extras I didn’t think I could afford since she saved me money. I would recommend her again and again. She handled all the details and I was so stress free.”

“I feel so bad as this is the first time I have had the time to actually sit and write a review since I got married almost a year ago — wow time flies. I first met Tonya from Your Day Your Way Weddings & Events at another Wedding. At that time I wasn’t even engaged but asked her for her card — that was the best thing I ever did, other than marrying my best friend (love ya Peter xoxo). After I got engaged almost 8 months later, I gave her a call. At first I was worried because it took her almost 3 days to first reach out but after I met her and had a consultation with her — I knew she was the one for us for sure. She did explain that when she is at an event, that entire day the client is her first and only focus and that all the calls get returned after events — which with being an upcoming bride, I appreciated. I told her our budget (kinda low balled it just to be safe) and she came in under, yep I said under the already low budget I gave her. She helped us so much with recommending vendors and venues and spent so much time just to find the perfect place for us. My Wedding Day is was storming, like not just a little rain but raining buckets and I mean buckets. She literally followed me everywhere making sure I was covered with an umbrella while she was getting soaked. Our food was amazing (from a caterer from her recommendation), our pictures are stunning and the DJ kept the party going all night — even my 92 year old Grandmother was dancing. Tonya was amazing. She was very organized, punctual, personable and our family and guests loved her. We have recommended her to all of our friends and she has done 2 of their weddings and they couldn’t of been happier (hopefully they will post reviews that won’t take quite a year to do, like I said time flies). If I could give any upcoming brides some advice — I would say call Tonya at Your Day Your Way Weddings & Events and hire her immediately then you have to worry about nothing. I left everything in her hands and she did the most amazing job for us. Truly thank you for the most memorable day of my life! #bestweddingplannerever #extremelygratefulforTonyaBarnett-McNees”

“Great service, great savings, great overall. I decided to work with Tonya from Your Day Your Way Weddings & Events after she did a friends wedding. She saved us tons of money and we were able to take the Honeymoon we never thought we could. She was professional, personable and our guests loved her. Way to go, Tonya — definitely another very pleased couple. Thank you for helping us have the wedding my always dreamed of.”
