“I was happily planning my own wedding with the help of a friend, and it gradually dawned on me that I didn't want either of us running around with a clipboard directing the details and dealing with minor crises on my actual wedding day. So I found someone to be my "day-of" coordinator with just a month till the wedding. Then after 2 weeks, she canceled because of illness. We were really down to the last minute, and Pomai saved the day! She took the time to meet with my team of three (talking all at once) and immediately lifted our load by taking on all the tasks of decor and direction, and she brought three helpers for serving and cleanup on my wedding day, who were just as competent and friendly as she was, for a reasonable price. I can only imagine how blessed you will be if you hire Heartfelt Maui Weddings to help you plan from the get-go!”

“Working with Teyanna has been a wonderful experience. As a bride who had never been to a wedding I was very lost in the planning process. I was so glad to find Teyanna and she has been my saving grace since then. She was on top of everything, super thorough, and always in communication incase I needed anything or had questions. When I did speak directly with vendors each and everyone said she was an absolute doll and a pleasure to work with. She helped me make informed and wise decisions for my wedding and definitely made me feel at ease throughout my wedding planning process. She is so helpful and knowledgeable and I definitely recommend her work to any bride who needs a planner, coordinator, or decor for their wedding. She is a very honest, kind, and patient person and working with her has been such a delight. I've learned so much about the wedding planning process and it's been so fun. Planning a wedding in 6 months seems stressful but, honestly it's been a breeze. Teyanna had taken so much weight off my shoulders and made me feel comfortable entrusting my big day in her hands. Working with Essence of Flair was by far the best decision I made for planning my wedding and I would whole heartedly recommend their work to any bride.”

Hello there! My name is Erika and I am a full-service Certified Wedding Planner based in Tampa, FL. I've been in the event industry since 2016 and started my business in 2022. I am certified through The Certified Wedding Planner Society.

“My husband and I chose to work with Erika as our wedding planner after scouring through Zola and reading many reviews. We initially chose her because she had good reviews and her day-of price point was within our budget. Upon our first meeting with Erika, we knew we had made the right choice. She did an awesome job of getting to know us as a couple and really took the time to understand our vision for our wedding. Despite choosing the "day-of" option, Erika met or checked-in with us frequently throughout the wedding process (about once a month to start and then 2-3 times right before our wedding day). One thing we particularly loved about her is that she ensured we remained on schedule for booking various vendors throughout the planning process. This was incredibly helpful, especially as we got 2-3 months out from our wedding. The day of our wedding, Erika was incredible. We had a few hiccups, as does every major event, but she was able to handle everything with great demand and ease. We as a couple had no idea anything had gone awry. We also made some last minute scheduling changes in the midst of our reception based on some scheduling challenges and Erika was able to take charge and pass out the information to anyone who needed it. None of our guests had any idea that any changes had been made. Overall, our experience with Erika was incredible and we would strongly recommend her for any wedding or event. She is professional and does a phenomenal job of helping everyone feel at ease throughout the entire process. We cannot thank her enough for helping our vision for our wedding come to life.”

“It’s weird that I ever write a review, but I had to for Carolyn. Weddings can be beyond stressful and to have to deal with covid and venue changes and date changes! But Carolyn put all my worries to rest and she had amazing out of the box ideas to make our special day come true. I would ask her a question, if we should do something next and she would already taken care of it or had options and referrals for me to pick from. She always put us first and came up with how to do things with covid restrictions in mind and safety for all. She even planned a beautiful virtual bridal shower in the major shut down and had a basket shipped to each home to be apart of my special day together. We had to push the wedding back due to covid but we’re able to tie the knot this past summer. She made our day beautiful, easy, and flawless in every way I could have dreamed of.
