Hiring Victoria and Everlasting Affairs was the best decision we made, and we cannot recommend highly enough! She was our rock in this process and we don’t know what we would’ve done without her. From our very first consultation through our wedding day, Victoria was professional, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful. We chose the partial planning service, and it was absolutely worth the investment! Victoria supported us every step of the way, and helped to bring our vision to life. We came to her with a budget and a dream (our only requirement was that we wanted to have a wedding day full of enjoyment), and she expertly curated every aspect of our wedding, from vendors to decor and personal touches. She has an exceptional eye for design and executed every detail flawlessly, creating a day that was extremely organized and felt even more beautiful than we could’ve possibly imagined. Most importantly, the day felt reflective of us as a couple. Every scary task that a bride and groom dreads (seating charts, floor plans, day-of timelines) were handled by Victoria, which helped to keep us stress-free. While planning, Victoria was adaptable and willing to make any changes that we needed. She is warm, welcoming, and we truly felt like she cared about us, not only as clients, but as a couple. On our wedding day, Victoria and her team were outstanding! We didn’t have to worry about a single thing and were able to be fully present with our family and friends. She anticipated all of our needs (for example running in with our sneakers as soon as the dance floor opened!), and made sure we experienced every detail we had planned. As a bride, I felt completely taken care of. Victoria went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and relaxed, and that’s something I’ll always cherish. If you’re looking for a wedding planner, no matter where you are in the process, you’ve found her!

Abby is a no brainer hire! Incredibly thoughtful, experienced, knowledgeable, intuitive, comprehensive, kind, and affordable! We were on a pretty tight budget so we hired Abby for her partial planning/day-of coordination and I can’t imagine what we would have done without her. I planned everything myself but as soon as she came on board, I felt so much comfort and relief knowing my wedding was in good hands and I could focus on other things. She is the definition of PRO. We had event staff bail the night before and she was able to find an amazing team of folks to fill their shoes! She ran our rehearsal like a well-oiled machine. She saw me dancing with my new husband with an empty drink in my hand and quickly swooped in to grab it; it’s the little things that tell you she’s putting you first on the most important day of your life. My entire wedding party adored her and even invited her out to the after party! If I could give her 50 stars I would. As my bridesmaids would say, QUEEN ABBY FOREVER. ️

My fiancé and I got engaged and then promptly avoided wedding planning as it seemed pretty overwhelming! We were lucky to connect with Val early on and booked a Clarity Session with her. This ended up being a valuable investment that has made wedding planning significantly easier for us even today. After chatting with her for about an hour, Val was able to synthesize exactly what we wanted from her strategic questions. Not only was it a comfortable and nonjudgmental space to share in, Val left us with her insights on what was clearly important to us, and a few different ways to incorporate our values into our big day. Her experience in planning these kinds of large-scale, high pressure events really shined through her answers to our biggest questions and concerns. Through our continued planning and the pivots that we’ve made, my fiancé and I have kept the priorities that we divined together with Val (and her thorough summary of our conversation!) close at hand to guide our process. We still look back on our Clarity Session as a highlight of our wedding planning experience. Thanks, Val!!

Debbie is the calm in the chaos and the quiet force behind a flawlessly run wedding day. With a steady presence, quick problem-solving instincts, and an eye for the details couples didn’t even know mattered. 0rganized but never rigid. Blending structure with warmth, clear direction with collaboration, and professionalism with a genuinely supportive energy. Vendors appreciate her realistic timelines & proactive communication, while couples love that she’s both their biggest advocate and their steady anchor. The kind of coordinator who can manage a timeline, fluff a dress, redirect a vendor, and calm nerves without missing a beat.

We cannot recommend DWP enough! We used DWP for our 10/19/2024 wedding at Falls Creek Farm, both Debbie & one her coordinators Kristen were a crucial part in our big day! From helping me plan and make decisions on final arrangements leading up to our big day to making sure everything ran as smoothly as possible, and being a major source of help to keep everything running smoothly, Debbie & Kristin went above and beyond for us. If you are looking for a day of coordinator for your wedding or event who are attentive, caring, have your best interest in mind and truly want to make your event as perfect as possible this is your team!

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

We absolutely loved working with Dahlia Events for our wedding. Deliece was our main point of contact, and she was truly a joy and an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She took care of everything we needed, and so much more than we even knew to ask for. Deliece came prepared with spreadsheets, thoughtful questions, and clear guidance that helped us navigate decisions we didn’t even realize we needed to make, but that proved to be essential. Her organization and attention to detail made the entire planning process feel manageable and well-supported. She handled communication with all of our vendors seamlessly and always made us feel completely taken care of, no matter the detail. When a few hiccups came up along the way, she addressed them with such ease, professionalism, and genuine empathy that we never felt stressed or worried.

We cannot recommend Dahlia Events highly enough. Working with Deliece was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding.

I can’t count the number of times during and after our wedding I said, “hiring Christina is the best money we spent on the wedding!” I am not a planner by nature and I was dreading wedding planning. The second we hired Christina, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted. She took care of all the tiny details, gave me ideas I never would have thought of, and brought our vision to life. She was so supportive throughout the whole process, answering texts and emails about absolutely everything. On the actual wedding day, I often thought that I didn’t know what we would have done without her. While our venue had a coordinator, they were not nearly as responsive and organized as Christina was. Christina will not only plan your wedding but she will be your friend throughout the whole wedding planning process. I can’t recommend her enough.

It was an absolutely beautiful journey with Abiola and her team. There truly aren’t enough words to express our gratitude, but we’ll start with this: From our very first call, we knew we were in great hands. Abiola wasn’t just focused on logistics; she genuinely wanted to know us—our story, our values, and our vision. We still remember receiving our first care package and affectionately calling Abiola our “Fairy Godmother.” She gave us the right tools and encouragement for the journey ahead. From rehearsal to our wedding day, Abiola and her team didn’t miss a single detail or moment—they celebrated with us as if it were their own wedding. We planned a Haitian wedding with nearly 50 vendors, a wedding party of almost 30 people, two locations (church and reception), and a long list of moving parts in 7 months. You can only imagine the level of organization, communication, patience, and discipline required to execute such a day flawlessly! Yet Abibi Bridal exceeded every expectation—not only for us but also for our families, friends, and vendors. Thanks to them, we carry countless happy memories. They lifted the heavy load off our shoulders and replaced it with peace, joy, and the ability to be fully present in every moment. Because of Abibi Bridal, our wedding became the unforgettable beginning of a legacy that generations after us will remember. If you’re searching for a wedding planner or coordinator, take it from us—Maxine and Marc—who experienced Abibi Bridal both as guests and as bride and groom: you will regret not having them by your side. We thank God for Abibi Bridal and her incredible team, who truly serve with excellence, heart, and grace. Abiola, Gloria, Silvia, Comfort, and Dorcas—thank you so much for your gifts, your talents, and for serving us and our loved ones beyond anything we could have imagined.

There truly aren't enough words to express how grateful we are for everything Stephanie and her team did for us. From the very beginning of the planning process through the final moments of our wedding day, she exceeded every expectation we had—and then some. She and her team anticipated needs before we even realized we had them, solved problems before they ever reached us, and somehow made an event with countless moving parts feel completely effortless. We were able to be fully present on our wedding day because we never had to worry about a single detail. We knew everything was being handled, and it absolutely was. More than anything, she took incredible care of us as a couple. She constantly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, kept us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed, and made us feel like the only two people in the room. Her calm presence, professionalism, and genuine kindness made what could have been a stressful process feel exciting, enjoyable, and completely stress-free. The day flowed more perfectly than we ever imagined, and that's entirely because of the work happening behind the scenes. Every vendor knew where to be, every transition happened seamlessly, and every little detail we had envisioned came to life flawlessly. We didn't have to think about logistics once—we just got to soak in every moment with our family and friends. Our guests repeatedly commented on how smoothly everything ran, and while they saw a beautiful wedding, we know it was because of the incredible person orchestrating it all. Hiring her wasn't just one of the best wedding decisions we made—it was the best decision we made. She gave us the priceless gift of actually experiencing our wedding day instead of managing it. We would recommend her a thousand times over to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares, goes above and beyond in every possible way, and delivers absolute perfection.

There truly aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are for everything she did for us. From the very first conversation to the last moments of our wedding day, she was our biggest supporter, our guide, and the person who kept everything together. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but she made us feel calm, confident, and cared for every single step of the way. She always knew exactly what needed to be done before we even had to think about it. She reminded us of every little detail, answered every question with patience, reassured me whenever I felt stressed, and constantly reminded me that everything would come together—and it absolutely did. Because of her, I was able to enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience instead of worrying about everything behind the scenes. On our wedding day, she worked tirelessly to make sure every single detail was perfect. She brought our vision to life in ways that exceeded every expectation we had. Seeing everything come together was one of the most emotional moments of my life, and it’s all thanks to her dedication, passion, and love for what she does. But beyond being an extraordinary wedding planner, she is an incredible human being. She genuinely cares about her couples, and you can feel that in everything she does. She celebrated with us, supported us through every decision, and made us feel like family. Looking back, I honestly cannot imagine this journey without her. It would have been impossible. If I could plan my wedding all over again, I would choose her a thousand times over without a second thought. She is truly one of a kind, and I will forever be thankful that she was by my side on one of the most important days of our lives. She didn’t just help us plan a wedding—she gave us the peace of mind to be fully present and create memories we’ll cherish forever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our dream wedding a reality. We will never forget everything you did for us. We love you, appreciate you more than words can say, and will recommend you to every couple we know.
