We used Victoria and her team as the Day of Coordinator for my daughter's wedding on 8/30/2025 at the Fairmont Copley in Boston. We got so much more than just a DOC. She helped all along the way with planning, keeping us on task and was very receptive to emails. She was an incredible wealth of information. Most importantly, on the big day she took care of EVERYTHING so that I, as the MOB and wedding coordinator, did not have to do or think of ANYTHING. Victoria is professional, knowledgeable, responsible, trustworthy, and makes you feel fully at ease.I am so glad we hired her and could not recommend her more highly. She made it all easy and the day was spectacular.

Working with Valerie made our final month of planning so much more manageable and stress-free. From our first meeting, she communicated clearly about what to expect and stayed on top of every detail. She proactively reached out to the rest of our vendors to confirm timelines and final details, which meant nothing fell through the cracks on the day of. During the wedding, Val made sure everything ran like clockwork while also paying close attention to how our decor came together.

My husband Alex and I got married in June of this year at Eolia Mansion. After nearly two years meticulously planning our big day I just knew that we needed the right person to help us pull it off, and wow did Abby exceed expectations and boy did we wish we had worked with her earlier on. Abby truly went above and beyond for us from helping with our timelines and floor plan, to executing our decor and managing vendors on a VERY short load in/load out window, to instructing our family/friends. To this day our close friends and family continue to say how amazing Abby was and have had nothing but the highest words about what an incredible job she did so that we could all just be in the moment and enjoy our special day!! Just to top it all off at the very end of the evening my husband accidentally left his keys behind and Abby drove out of the way to drop them off at our after party. Thank you Abby for everything!!

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.

Can’t even begin to describe how awesome Debbie was! My wedding day was executed better than I ever even imagined. From setup to breakdown, I never lifted a finger. Debbie handled everything, checked on me, fixed my bustle, solved problems, and probably lots of other stuff I don’t even know about. Knowing what I know now, I would’ve hired her to plan my wedding too! Her connections in the industry are unmatched and she is just truly your best option for a wedding coordinator in this area. Don’t hire anyone else!

I'm obsessed with Charlene! She was a dream to work with. She brought such professionalism to our hectic event. We were planning a wedding at a personal property, meaning we had to supply every single vendor and she handled everything amazingly. She wrangled the vendors prior to the day of and she helped me keep my cool during the stress of the morning. You can tell she's a pro at this! There were times I felt a little underwater in terms of managing an event I had no experience with, and her demeanor was so calming and she handled any last minute things.

As a wedding photographer, I work with a wide range of planners, but Tanya from Bookmarked Weddings truly stands out. Our most recent wedding together was a 2025 New Year’s Eve wedding, and it was clear from the start that this wasn’t just another event—it was a fully immersive experience, thanks in large part to Tanya’s vision and execution. The day was filled with intricate details: a balldrop at midnight filled with bubbles, an elegant champagne tower, and a timeline packed with special moments and intentional design. Tanya handled it all with a calm, confident presence and exceptional attention to detail. She built a full-day timeline that was both comprehensive AND realistic—which meant everything ran smoothly, and I was able to capture the day naturally without unnecessary stress or delays. Tanya’s coordination behind the scenes allowed the couple to stay present and enjoy every moment while ensuring that vendors like myself had exactly what we needed to do our jobs well. Her thoughtful approach and clear communication made a huge difference throughout the day. The energy of a New Year’s Eve wedding is already electric, but Tanya elevated it with a sense of elegance, organization, and creativity that made the whole celebration feel effortless and magical.

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.

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.

Things for us, certainly came with more than a few bumps along the road. But when Abibi Bridal stepped in, it felt like someone finally saw us, heard us, and held space for both our dream and our chaos. Abiola became a calm presence when we were stressed, a creative light when we felt stuck, and a true advocate when we needed our voices heard. She was able to support us from out of state yet, it always felt like she was right there beside us present, organized, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. Her ability to listen and lead at the same time is something we’ll never forget. Every vendor and guest who interacted with her had nothing but glowing feedback. She didn’t just coordinate, she connected. When things didn’t go as planned, She worked with what she was given and she carried it all with grace, protecting the peace and joy of our day. Abiola softened every misstep, elevated every moment, and somehow her and her team made the entire experience more beautiful than we could have imagined. That’s not something you can find on a checklist. After the wedding, my husband who rarely says much—turned to me and said: "If we had to do this all over again, I’d want her from DAY ONE." That one sentence said everything we both felt in our hearts. She embodies everything a couple hopes for in a wedding coordinator. We honestly can’t believe the wedding is over. What’s even harder to believe is that we don’t get to keep her because Abiola energy, her presence, her passion it’s nothing short of magical. truly became like family. Abiola is not just a vendor; she’s like family. With all our love, The Saint-Stanton's Married 5.25.2025 @ 5:25 PM

She was sooo personable, punctual and professional and friendly right from the very start. I knew we made the right decision from the beginning with her very fast response time.

My wife and I worked with Danielle at a venue and she was so fantastic, we followed her from one venue to the other. We were so interested to work with her, we sought her out. The building, the amenities and the food…important? I guess… but not as important as the person who is going to help you keep the event on the rails, be in your corner the whole time and do everything she can to make your day the best it can be. Someone once told me, “a bunch of things are gonna go sideways on your day, you’ll know, but no one else will. Just enjoy the whole thing.” Danielle made sure to make our day as perfect as it really turned out to be. It was 5 years ago and people still comment on the day.

Katelynn made the planning of our wedding a pleasure. She was organized, always upbeat, has a great network, excellent ideas, yet not afraid to push back when needed. She kept the process moving along which allowed us to mostly enjoy the whole thing. She set us up for an amazing wedding, more beautiful than we could have even imagined. We loved working with her and recommend her wholeheartedly.

E & A Events is a modern, elegant event planning company specializing in thoughtfully curated weddings, elopements, and celebrations of all sizes. With a personalized approach and an eye for detail, we turn your vision into an unforgettable experience. Whether it’s an intimate gathering or a grand affair, we’re here to make every moment seamless, stylish, and uniquely yours.

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.

I'm Charissa owner & lead planner. My doormat says it best, 'running on coffee, wine, and the dog's time', but seriously I start every intro call with the disclaimer that you may hear the barking, snoring, or a squeaky toy in the background. I'm the twenty-something-year-old that's gone from throwing "Weddings" in her neighbor's driveway, to throwing them in some pretty amazing spaces. With over a decade of experience in weddings and corporate events, this isn't my first rodeo. Weddings are sort of my thing!

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Charissa and her team if you're looking for a wedding coordinator/planner! She is so professional, organized, and just the nicest person ever. We had so many questions and worries but Charissa helped us feel at ease throughout it all. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND on the day of the wedding... literally hauling extra chairs with her throughout the botanic gardens so we could get our photographs!! LOL! You can just tell how much she cares about her clients and we so appreciated the effort. We also had Kevin on her team set-up the decor at the venue and they did an amazing job -- we were blown away when we arrived! We got tons of compliments from our guests at how lovely the entire wedding was and I know we could not have pulled it off without Charissa / Simply Loved Weddings!!

What brings me joy on your wedding day is watching your gorgeous faces from the back of the aisle, knowing that your wedding is unfolding exactly as we planned it. You are excited and focused on each other, just as it should be. Your happiness is my happiness, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Events By Missy & Company was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first conversation, Melissa and her team demonstrated an organized, thoughtful, and kind communication style that immediately put us at ease. Throughout the planning process and on the day of, they provided a stress-free, nice, and confident approach, quickly solving any problems that arose so we could fully enjoy our special day. Melissa in particular worked tirelessly to come up with solutions rather than dwell on issues, handling a few minor hiccups behind the scenes that we didn't even know about until later. Their professionalism and attention to detail allowed us to have a truly memorable wedding celebration. We are so grateful to Events By Missy & Company for making our wedding day perfect.
