What Without A Hitch does

Without A Hitch is a boutique day-of event coordination company founded in 2013 by Sarah Narcus and headquartered in Peabody, Massachusetts, serving clients across New England (Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, Connecticut) and New York. The company specializes in executing the logistics of weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, corporate events, and nonprofit events on the day they occur, leaving planning and design to clients or separate planners. Service offerings are anchored by a single day-of coordination package with add-on components, delivered by a small in-house team of coordinators.

The business model is project-based fee-for-service, charging per event rather than on retainer or subscription, with pricing varying by event complexity and add-ons. Distribution is primarily through third-party wedding marketplaces (WeddingWire, The Knot, Yelp), direct referrals from the 150+ venue partner network, and organic channels including an active Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest presence. The company operates as an LLC, is privately held and bootstrapped (no external funding), and has cumulatively served 500+ celebrants since inception. Founder Sarah Narcus has also launched the Olio event space, extending the founder's footprint into venue ownership and creating potential vertical integration with the coordination business.
