Reviews of 3 Goats Tall (Event Planner)

Shayfer & Rachel Mosness

So much to say! My husband and I, along with my parents, knew that we needed help with all of the moving parts of our semi-destination wedding at Callaway Gardens. We met Lynda at a wedding expo in Columbus and were impressed from the very start. At that show alone, she focused on our needs and introduced us to other vendors that she recommended. Before we even hired her, she had already helped us so much. Within a week, she sent us a quote and found a time to meet with us in person to discuss our needs. Her pricing was great, and now having been through the wedding experience, I can say she earned every cent and is worth so much more. Throughout the year of planning, she assisted with the most random details and gave the best advice whenever I reached out to her. The vendors she recommended were amazing (dj, florist, and photographer – all recommended by her and they all were high quality, great people to work with). With the planning process, Lynda encouraged my good ideas and helped them come to fruition and helped me rethink my not-so-good ideas. We met with her a month out and did a walk through. She put together timelines and confirmed with vendors. She helped fill in the holes with details I forgot about or didn’t think through properly. I strongly recommend hiring her for the full package because I could not have planned the special weekend without her. During the weekend of my wedding, Lynda worked every event for us (bridal tea, BBQ, Wedding Olympics, rehearsal, wedding setup, the wedding, and breakdown). She was the first face I would see when I arrived on site at any of the events and she was the last one there at the end. I didn’t know until the wedding was over about the various “fires” she put out all weekend long. It doesn’t matter how well you plan, things always find a way to not go according to plan. Lynda was ready to problem solve and find solutions. This includes arriving the morning of the wedding to see a giant tent on the lawn left from an previous event in the space. She was able to get the rental company to Callaway within the hour to have them break down the tent, so we could setup. Little did I know how important it was to have the tent down because it was blocking the view from the terrace to the lake – where Lynda and my parents had arranged a surprise firework show at the end of the night without me knowing. That’s a good planner that can successfully pull off a firework show without anyone catching on beforehand. In addition to properly taking care of vendors, wrangling wedding party, setting up and breaking down décor, taking care of my over-the-top guests, she did all of this and more with the best attitude and calming demeanor about her. I felt calm when I talked to her. I trusted that everything was under control. She calls herself the Direct of Sanity which is so fitting. As the bride, I had planned every detail, but when the week actually came, my mind went into Bride Brain and I just couldn’t think through details anymore. Vendors would ask me questions or guests would have issues with their room reservations and I just wasn’t much help problem solving. I even forgot about some big details that I had organized – like an ice cream truck coming at the end of the BBQ as a surprise treat for my guests. Not a surprise at all that Lynda didn’t miss a beat and coordinated the ice cream truck as well as every other vendor and moving part. While I’m so grateful for Lynda and her hard work, what I really appreciate the most is that her work allowed my parents and family to sit back and enjoy the weekend. Nobody wants to see their parents working hard and stressed out about details, so she was able to take so much off of their plate and I’m truly so appreciative. Do yourself a favor and hire Lynda to coordinate your wedding. It’s going to be a lot more work than you realize and you need a professional on your side. Lynda allowed me to have the best wedding weekend I could ever imagine. Love you Lynda!! It was such a pleasure to work with you!

Deciding to hire Three Goats Tall to be my day of coordinator was the best wedding planning decision I could have made. Lynda is amazing! She seriously felt like an angel sent to me from heaven. I had planned my wedding myself, but realized several weeks before my big day that I simply could not be in multiple places at once on my wedding day. I could not coordinate the arrival of vendors while getting my hair and makeup done, I could not set up tables, place settings, special decor tables, etc... how I wanted to and take photos with the photographer at the same time- and I didn't want to!!! I didn't want to burden my family/friends with these tasks and worried I had spent so much time working to make my wedding special, but wouldn't be able to ultimately execute it. That's when I hired Lynda. She was flawless. She was such a calm, well organized, professional, wise presence on our wedding day (and in every encounter I had with her prior to). She kept us on schedule, improvised when she needed to, upheld our wishes for our wedding and took care of every detail with my vendors. Our ceremony and reception went just as I had envisioned. And I just got to enjoy my wedding- every second of it! Some bride's say the wedding flies by and is a blur, but because of Lynda, I got to soak up every moment and feel like I had so much joy all day (not stress!). Is there even a price on that?!! If you are looking for a day of coordinator or wedding coordinator/planner, you would be the luckiest to have Lynda help you. She worked with my budget (worth every penny and then some) and is an excellent resource- so many connections with amazing vendors. My family even fell in love with her in the short time she was with us (my now husband has invited her to Thanksgiving- no lie, she is that special)! I could never truly express what Lynda brought to our wedding day, but my husband and I will forever be grateful for her help.

I HIGHLY recommend getting not only a wedding planner, but the BEST one around to make planning an enjoyable experience. Three Goats Tall made my dream wedding into a reality that I will cherish forever. Extremely professional and detail-oriented, Lynda Johnson of Three Goats Tall made sure every aspect that went into my wedding was exactly how I planned it to be. Because of this wonderful event planning team, I had the perfect wedding I always imagined. Thank you so much to Lynda and the whole Three Goats Tall team for making my special day that much more magical!

We couldn't have done it without Lynda. She anticipated every concern (well before we did) and took care of everything so effortlessly. Lynda is trustworthy and she always has your back! Thank you for making our day so special!

One of the best in the business! They find a way to make dreams happen and calm the nerves of all involved. We have never met a bride who didn't rave about them!

Lynda and her team did a phenomenal job! She made herself always readily available. She was professional and punctual. Everything was perfect. I can't thank her enough... I woke up the next morning wanting to relive that day all over again. It was heaven on earth. You definitely will be recommended to others for future events

I will forever recommend 3 Goats Tall to every person I know that is getting married. We originally went with them because of how affordable they were compared to every other coordinating company. Some of the prices were outrageous and 3 Goats Tall's prices can't even compete with other companies. We later realized that, not only were their prices amazing but Lynda, our coordinator, really out did herself. As any bride would, I had many frequent questions and Lynda was ALWAYS available. Every time I called her, she answered and gave me the answers and peace of mind that I needed. If she didn't answer, she called me RIGHT back. On the day of our wedding everything went so smoothly. We walked in to have dinner and Lynda had already prepared both of our plates and then provided us with anything and everything we needed. Lynda made sure, the entire night, that my husband, myself, and my entire family enjoyed ourselves and didn't have to worry about a single detail.

We had the pleasure of working with Lynda for our recent wedding on June 10th! We hired her for the day of wedding coordinator but she went above and beyond and was in constant contact with us weeks before the wedding. The day went off without a hitch and Lynda did an excellent job keeping everyone on schedule and ensuring the evening ran smoothly. Not only was Lynda such a joy to work with but our friends and family are still commenting about our perfect wedding. We would definitely recommend her services to anyone as there is no way it would have all come together without her expertise.

Could not have asked for better. All of my bridesmaids talked about how much of a stress free wedding it was and most of that was either Mrs. Lynda, or that I knew she was taking care of everything. Best decision of planning our wedding was deciding to hire them!!!

There are not enough wonderful things I can say about Lynda. She kept me calm throughout the process and was so assuring all the way from our initial meeting, the month prior-walk through, rehearsal, and then to the big day. We hired her for the day-of-coordination package, but she did so much more than that as she stepped in the many weeks prior to the wedding to confirm all my vendors for me and as discussed above, going out to the venue to month before for a walk through. On the big day she handled getting the alter together and decorated (we had our reception and ceremony at the same location) so I could sit back with my girls and relax, and she did a spectacular job of our ceremony site. She read me so well and knew exactly what I wanted without having to give her precise details, I knew I could trust her! And the wedding day went by like a breeze thanks to her. I am so grateful for her support and assurance throughout the process. The whole wedding party agreed that her laid back attitude while getting things done quickly and easily made her their favorite coordinator they've ever had in all the weddings they have participated in. Thank you Lynda, for everything!

Lynda and her team did a PHENOMENAL job with my best friend's wedding. We were thrilled with her from start to finish! She really came through when we had (multiple issues with our venue) and did all the negotiating on behalf of the bride. No matter what happen or how many twists and turns there were, she stepped up and said "no worries, we'll take care of it" and made sure it worked out. Definitely use TGT and Lynda as your wedding planner! You won't regret it! As an aside, don't get married at Callaway Gardens, and if you just HAVE to, don't hesitate to ask Lynda to be your wedding planner--CG makes things difficult, but Lynda will make them easier!

Where do I begin? Three Goats Tall -- Lynda and MJ -- they are so special to me. I found them by googling around looking for wedding planners that could plan my wedding in GA while I live in OH. They were definitely the pair to do it. They are so down to earth and they are committed and caring. They are very professional and knowledgeable, and their resources alone are worth the $$. They will lead you to the perfect vendors to get your day the way you want it. I highly recommend them. Planning a wedding is a huge undertaking. I joke that I don't miss anything at all about planning a wedding except for them. I miss them dearly! So fun to work with!

This woman is amazing! Made my wedding go seamlessly and was always there when I had questions or concerns. She went above and beyond and we are so happy we hired her and are grateful for all she and 3 goats y’all did for our wedding!
