Because it’s you helped our wedding event flow as smoothly as possible. With both parties not understanding weddings very well, we still felt listened to, accepted, and very well treated. Rehearsal was organized and all concerns were addressed immediately. The worries and stresses were made a lot easier to bear. And the day of was perfect. If I could do it again, I would still work with because it’s you again More...

Working with our wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions we made during the entire planning process. From the beginning, she was organized, calm, and incredibly supportive—helping to ease the stress that naturally comes with planning a wedding.
She took time to understand our vision and worked tirelessly to bring it to life. There were several moments where she stepped in without hesitation, even covering some expenses upfront to make sure everything stayed on schedule (which we of course reimbursed). That level of trust and dedication meant so much to us.
On the day of the wedding, she handled everything behind the scenes so flawlessly that all we had to do was focus on enjoying the moment. It truly felt like she cared just as much about our wedding as we did, and that made all the difference. We can’t thank her enough for going above and beyond, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a coordinator who is not only professional and reliable, but also genuinely invested in making your day unforgettable. She has an amazing supportive husband that also came and helped made sure our day went smoothly as possible. She overcame every obstacle she faced the day and we are so grateful for that . Liz felt like family to us , and she will always be our #1 go to for anything else we may have in the future.

A Perfect Day, Thanks to Liz Johnson
As a couple who isn’t exactly “average,” my wife and I weren’t sure if we could trust anyone to take charge of our big day.
Kenneth, being the patriarch of our family, and Tiffany, a natural “do-it-yourselfer,” are both used to being the hosts and handling things ourselves. With our busy schedules and a growing guest list, planning the details of our wedding began to feel overwhelming. We realized we needed someone special to organize everything so we could enjoy our day fully—and that someone was Liz Johnson.
From the moment we hired Liz, it was like a weight had been lifted. She and her professional team brought an incredible level of organization, attentiveness, and professionalism to the table. Liz didn’t just manage the vendors we had already booked (DJ, catering, rentals, photographer, etc.); she created a comprehensive timeline for the day and tackled problem areas with grace. Her ability to see our vision and execute it flawlessly made all the difference.
What stood out the most was Liz’s ability to anticipate our needs and take control with a calm confidence that immediately put us at ease. I vividly remember the day all the stressful phone calls stopped- Liz had it all under control, and for the first time, we could just focus on our day-to-day lives, knowing everything was in good hands.
Liz and her team pulled off our wedding day perfectly. From start to finish, every detail was handled seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy one of the most important days of our lives. We are beyond grateful for her dedication and expertise. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes above and beyond, Liz Johnson is your coordinator.
Kenneth & Tiffany McNair, Happy Newlyweds.

Wedding Planning
Wow!!! Where do I begin??? Liz was literally a God send to us for our wedding. She did her job and then some! She was a planner, designer, coordinator, advisor AND ultimately became like a friend. From the moment we said hello she went right to work. What I love about her is that she was able to work with our budget and taste. And most importantly she LISTENS! We asked for a grown and sexy wedding she saw the vision and ran with it! We can't thank her and Juan enough. We got raving reviews from all our family and friends of how well organized and throughly thought through our wedding was. Liz is absolutely someone you want for your event. I'm confident that she is the very reason our wedding went perfect without a hitch. We loved her you and you will too! More...

It was a pleasure and fun adventure working with Liz Johnson and her team at Because Its You! Our family is amazing and dynamic and not easy. Liz not only worked with every vendor and all the various contracts to ensure we got not just what we paid for but also the best quality and what was needed for one of the highlight important events in our family tapestry, our daughter's wedding. Liz was insightful, patient, a great listener and generous with her time and attention from the beginning to summary end. Her team was one of the best crews around and were professional, efficient and so on top of implementing the vision for our daughter's wedding day! I would absolutely hire Liz and her team for any future events where this level and quality of engagement and support is needed. More...

She was on top of everything from the very first day, very professional, went into a lot of details, some of which we had not even thought of, communicated with everyone on a regular basis & kept us informed throughout the process. Her team was always up to the task at hand. I would definitely recommend her. Would have given her more stars than 5 if it was possible! More...

Wedding Planning
Liz and her team really came to my rescue. I was trying to manage the planning of my daughters wedding on my own and realized a couple of weeks before the wedding that I was overwhelmed. I reached out to Liz almost in a panic, she said she could hear the desperation in my voice. She and her team made my daughters wedding perfect even in the rain. I was blown away by the daily contact and details that Liz provided in those 2 weeks. The timeline she created helped the wedding flow smoothly. Her and her team went the extra mile on the rehearsal day and the day of the wedding. The personal touches she provided was what impressed me the most- the late night phone calls, zoom meetings, and most of all the empathy she showed. Liz made my daughter and the entire family feel special. She encouraged us, supported us and guided us through the entire wedding. I would highly recommend Liz and her team at Because It’s You for any event you are having. If you want someone who is going to support your vision while taking care of all the details, Liz and Because It’s You are the people you need . I’m so grateful I found her. More...
