About Hannah:
After being a bridesmaid 9 times, the reader, the wedding singer, the Officiant, and attending over 40 weddings for friends and family (you could say she knew her way around a wedding) Hannah Campbell-Anderson saw one thing missing at almost all of these weddings—a coordinator. A non-friend/family member, who knows all the details and major players of the day—from vendors to grandmothers, flower delivery time to the groom’s favorite cocktail. Someone whose job it is to be your advocate and wrangle the day from beginning to end. Someone you can trust to hand over the reins to—your wedding’s Day of GAL!
