Utano Event & Wedding Planning 
Rating: 5.0 (17 reviews)
Cicero, NY
  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $250

I was born and raised in Central New York. I am a military wife, that married her high school sweetheart. We are your typical family with 2 kids, 2 dogs and 2 cats. We even have that dreamy white picket fence. I started working weddings and events in Syracuse as a server, and realized that event planning was my dream job. I have worked my way up the ladder and decided that it was time to branch out on my own. My years of experience in wedding and event planning have required me to have a sharp eye for detail, excellent problem-solving skills and work in fast paced environments to make planning fun and events less stressful!

I will preface this by saying that I am not very good at event planning/emails/phone calls and was somewhat dreading wedding planning. I hired Utano Events/Beth for my day of coordinator (and later added on serving staff) at the strong recommendation from my venue. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that my wedding would not have happened without Beth! She caught so many things that I had missed during the planning process. She walked me through rental order estimates, contacted and verified details with all vendors so I didn't have to, made my decor ideas into reality...the list goes on. She has relationships with tons of vendors in the area, and if she didn't work with them before they were sure to let me know how much they enjoyed having her coordinate the wedding. If you are planning a wedding, I would highly recommend hiring Utano Events, and if you are using a more "DIY" venue that doesn't offer many services on site I would VERY highly recommend hiring them!! Worth every penny!

Vanessa was absolutely outstanding and made our wedding day SO incredibly special and magical. We will forever cherish how seamless she made the whole process during the planning, rehearsal and the ceremony itself on the day of. Her communication was outstanding the entire time and she was extremely organized throughout the whole process. Vanessa met with us whenever we needed/ wanted, set up a wedding workshop with us, set up a Google doc for the script of the ceremony, answered text messages or phone calls in a very timely manner and made sure everything was perfectly planned out as we dreamed of. Vanessa was diligent, did not skip a beat and helped with every detail of our wedding ceremony.

It was such a beautiful day and we could not be happier to have been married by Vanessa, who will now be our lifelong friend. Vanessa has a bubbly personality and is so caring. I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to effectively share our love story with our friends and family. She put together our love story so beautifully and she was so attentive on the day of our wedding to both the bride and the groom. We 10/10 recommend Vanessa and CNY magical weddings to be your officiant, they will not disappoint and it is the moments with your officiant that you will never forget!!!

We all start this wild journey one way or another. My way? I was introduced to Ansel Adams’ work in a Photo 1 class in high school. How would the kids say this… his black and whites were giving adventure? What I mean is, they were nice. I had already been hiking the Adirondacks for 15 years at that point, why couldn’t I do it? Why couldn’t I take those photos too? I set out to prove to myself I could. Over the past decade I’ve evolved from landscapes to sports to family portraits to weddings. I continue all of those today. Never forget your roots, right?

Joe was phenomenal to work with and made the day so much easier. He was so attentive and amazing. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to photograph the day. He was so quick to capture all the special moments that we wanted and made sure he captured the moments we really wanted. I can’t thank him enough for making our day special and giving us such great memories. I highly recommend him to everyone and anyone.

Welcome to Emily Woznica Photo. I am a Wedding Photographer based in Syracuse, NY that photographs weddings all over CNY. I am a true to color and natural light photographer. This means your photos are tastefully enhanced and still match the moment. I primarily work with couples and my work ranges from engagements, weddings, family sessions and more. Things that inspire my me are historical architecture, stone, sunsets, and water. I have a calm and laid back personality, but I am genuinely passionate about serving my clients to ensure they receive the quality photos they deserve.

Emily, and her colleague Katie, were absolutely incredible to work with. From day one meeting via Zoom, she made me feel fully at ease and brought that same warm, but organized, energy to the actual wedding day. She got all of the shots we asked for - and then some! Throughout the day, she was gentle but firm in guiding us to stay on track with schedules (my family is notoriously horrible at this) and I'm just so appreciative I had her presence there on my special day. She even climbed through the woods to get some sunset photos of me atop a hill - a ridiculous demand of mine but she did it with a smile. I feel like I made a new friend in her! Thank you again, Emily and Katie, for the amazing captures you took - you did a wonderful job. 11/10, highly recommend!

Since 1982...Experience that works for you! It’s been said that a DJ can make or break the wedding reception, don’t just rely on a website or what you read on the Internet to make a decision about your wedding reception entertainment. Good music entertainment is all about getting the party going, keeping the party going, and coordinating the formalities so it's stress-free and fun. Put my experience to work for you and I will make your wedding reception what you've always dreamed of.

Perfect Sounds was the perfect DJ Service for our wedding. They showed how professional they are when I forgot to tell them that "Otto the Orange" was coming to our wedding reception. I didn't even know Otto was there until he made a grand entrance with the help of Perfect Sounds. They handled everything without even mentioning this omission to me on my special day. They just took care of it. We highly recommend Perfect Sounds DJ Music & Entertainment. They are without question the best.

She was always quick to respond and very helpful during the planning process and during the day of she was able to pivot with unexpected rain, keep hopes up and was a calm force that carried us through the day.

I am honestly not even sure where to start. Charmaine was absolutely incredible. Originally, my husband and I were very nervous about hiring a florist. I mean, flowers are expensive! After a few weeks of wedding planning, however, we realized that we couldn't do it all ourselves. That's when we reached out to Charmaine. During our first call, I explicitly expressed our budget concerns with her. She made sure to keep our concerns in mind throughout the entire process, and the results were beautiful flowers that were right in our price range! Charmaine was consistently professional, kind, and she always responded to my texts and calls within minutes.

Brittany and her team were absolutely amazing from the day I found her online.

She made us comfortable in front of the camera and orchestrated everything to a T. Her team captured all angles of the wedding, and we are thrilled with the outcome. Organized from start to finish, and I think that’s the most important part. The weather was cold, windy, and rainy on our special day, and Brittany accepted that challenge in stride and made the best of what we had to work with. Thank you, Brittany and team!

Alla truly brought our wedding vision to life in the most beautiful way. She was in charge of our stage decor, transferring everything seamlessly to the reception, and setting up our sweetheart table — and she executed every detail flawlessly. Walking into the church and seeing the stage decorated exactly how I had envisioned (honestly, even better) was such a special moment for me. She listened so carefully to what I wanted and somehow turned the ideas in my head into something tangible and breathtaking. The sweetheart table was so elegant and romantic — it felt like our own little haven in the middle of the celebration. What meant just as much as her talent was her kindness. She was calm, warm, and so easy to work with throughout the whole process. On such an emotional and busy day, having someone dependable and genuinely kind handling such an important part made all the difference. She didn’t just decorate a space, she created an atmosphere that felt intimate, sacred, and beautiful. I’m so grateful for her and would recommend her to any bride who wants their vision executed with excellence and heart.

Alisha and her team at Hayloft on the Arch were an absolute pleasure to work with. From our first inquiry, their communication was quick, thorough and attentive, answering every question we had. On the day of our wedding, we were blown away by the beautiful, cozy fall setting they helped create. The entire venue is picturesque and we still have guests raving about how stunning the day was - from the outdoor ceremony, to patio cocktail hour and indoor reception. Alisha, the venue coordinator, was a true pro - she was incredibly detail-oriented and made sure everything was taken care of so we could fully relax and enjoy our special day. We are so grateful to the Hayloft team for helping make our wedding day truly perfect!

The staff at Tailwater made our big day unforgettable, not only for us, but for our guests too! They took care of every detail, and we felt like fast friends with the staff! I can't recommend them enough for any large event if you want to know it will be done right. Our guests are still raving about the food, the amenities, the venue, and the views of the river!
