Working with Val was hands down THE best decision we made for our wedding. I gave her a chaotic document full of insane ideas, unconventional plans, and random thoughts, and she somehow turned it into the most incredible, seamless, perfectly designed 3-day event. She has an unbelievable eye for design, but what really sets her apart is her ability to make everything feel calm and completely handled. Val had every detail completely dialed in and built such strong relationships with our vendors that everyone was obsessed with her. Because of that, we got to actually enjoy our wedding instead of managing it. Months later, people still bring it up. Friends, family, and even vendors have told me how special it felt, the flow of the events, the way the spaces transformed and how everything came together. That doesn’t just happen, it was Val. Anything she touches turns to gold!!! Your search for a wedding planner ends here… if Val is available, book her immediately!

If you’re a bride on the fence about hiring a coordinator—trust me when I say you will want Raquel, in your corner. She is truly a saint dropped on this earth for brides everywhere! As a Type A bride, I knew I needed someone who could match my level of organization—but what I found in Raquel was so much more. From the moment we signed with her, she stayed consistently connected and fully invested. She never missed a beat when it came to vendor communication, design details, timelines, or logistics. More importantly, she took the time to truly understand us—our vision for the day, our personalities, and even our family dynamics (the good, the bad, and everything in between). Raquel is calm, collected, and incredibly organized—exactly the energy every bride needs. On our wedding day, she was essentially our stunt double: always in sync, always one step ahead! She greeted and managed every vendor, kept the day moving seamlessly, and allowed me to fully enjoy special moments with my bridesmaids without worrying about a single detail. She came prepared with her own wedding-day emergency kit—something I didn’t realize the value of until it saved the day multiple times. From reinforcing my bustle (more than once!), lint-rolling my husband’s jacket before photos, to literally sewing a groomsman’s ripped pants —Raquel handled it all effortlessly. You would never have known anything went wrong, because the entire day felt flawless. She has an incredible intuition—knowing exactly when to give us space to enjoy our guests and dance, and when to step in with support (whether it was another bustle fix or a quick heel-to-slipper change later in the night). Raquel doesn’t just guide you through planning and execute the day perfectly—she becomes fully invested in your wedding. She celebrates it with you, and even relives it when your photos and videos arrive, as if it were her own! Hiring Raquel was hands-down one of the best decisions we made, and we truly owe the seamlessness and joy of our day to her!

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married on May 21, 2022, and I can confidently say that hiring Jenn was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish! Our family first met Jenn when we hired her to help with my Grandma’s 90th birthday celebration -- an event that came together beautifully thanks to her expertise. After seeing how seamlessly she pulled off that special day, I knew I wanted her to be part of our wedding. Due to the pandemic, I had a longer-than-expected planning window (a little under 2.5 years), and I brought Jenn on board later in the process than I would’ve liked -- honestly, if I had known how incredible she was, I would have hired her from day one. Jenn served as our day-of coordinator, but she brought so much more to the table. She was incredibly detail-oriented, always attentive to my ideas, timeline, and ever-growing list of décor dreams. Our planning calls were so helpful -- they not only kept things on track but also eased my anxiety and made me feel confident that everything would come together. On the wedding day, Jenn went above and beyond. She met us at our bed and breakfast, carefully transported all of our décor and paper goods to the venue, and worked hand-in-hand with our venue staff and vendors to bring our vision to life. She had a calming presence and a warm, supportive energy that made the whole day feel smoother and more joyful. Throughout the celebration, Jenn was always nearby (but never intrusive), checking in to make sure my husband and I had everything we needed and that the schedule stayed on track. She truly cared about making the day special for us -- and it showed in every detail. Jenn was an invaluable part of our wedding day, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Whether you're planning a wedding, party, or special event, she brings professionalism, warmth, and a genuine passion for what she does. Thank you, Jenn, for your incredible care, thoughtfulness, and dedication. You helped make our day unforgettable!

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. She also helped with some post-wedding issues even though she could have wiped her hands and been done with the event day of. I've already told multiple people in her area to book her immediately.

My husband and I hired Madison as our day of coordinator. We did not hire a florist and ended up doing a lot of DIY projects for our wedding decor. We really wanted a professional to help us with setup and take-down of decor on the wedding day, so as not to burden our family/friends and take them away from the event to help. Madison was so friendly in the months leading up to the wedding and offered us lots of helpful advice on things we didn't even think to prepare for, like arranging seating charts and timing of processional songs. Our original venue coordinator ended up having to move away just a couple weeks before our wedding day, and Madison took the lead in syncing with the new venue coordinator on all the things we'd talked about. This really helped us out and took a load off our plate in those last few weeks before the wedding! The day of, she came early to the venue and, like a fairy godmother, had incorporated all of our decorations beautifully before we even arrived, so we were able to take lots of photos beforehand! Throughout the event, she cleverly found ways to repurpose some of our decor items to give them a second life, like setting reception flower arrangements along the room's bookshelves to dress them up for the ceremony, making a beautiful display with our ceremony roses and boutonnieres on our memory table, and using me and my bridesmaids' bouquets to create a beautiful sweetheart table arrangement! We were so incredibly thrilled with how well Madison and her team were able to follow our vision and exceed our expectations. A final sweet memory I have from near the end of the night - my hair was getting very tangled with my dress buttons on my back from dancing, and I was overheating and sweaty. Madison and her team arranged my hair into a beautiful low bun style so I could go back and have fun dancing again without worrying about it tangling further or looking bad. :) I'm so thankful we hired Madison as our day of coordinator, and we can't recommend her enough!!

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.

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.

We had Christina do our month-of/day-of coordination for our wedding and she truly went ABOVE AND BEYOND!!! It's been a few weeks and I'm still in awe with what she did with my mess of decorations that I threw at her!!! I work in a creative field myself, so I got down and dirty with the D.I.Y. for our big day. I, kid you not, had 300 colorful bud vases, 200 colorful candle holders/votives, and a massive amount of other silly decorations for her to set up for us. I did my best to stay organized for her sanity - but let me tell you - IT WAS A HUGE COMPLICATED JOB and she did it with such ease. I kept apologizing for the amount of work I was giving her, I felt like I was being a little insane with it all LOL... but she was incredibly kind, calm, and reassuring with me through the whole process and kept telling me to stop apologizing LOL!! She is so super knowledgable about everything and has such good instincts about event planning. I added on a 30 minute planning session a few months before she started her coordinating for me - and it was incredibly helpful. Aside from her eye for decorations and impeccable creativity, she was also so so so amazing in coordinating the event in general. I had multiple people from the wedding party ask "wait so that's your coordinator?" and then follow with something along the lines of "she's awesome she just told me where to go and what to do so fast - and I was like YES M'AM" All of the party loved working with her, from my parents to my in-laws. I cannot stress enough how much of an amazing person she is through and through - and if you're lucky enough to get in her books for your wedding, you won't regret it!!

A million thanks to DeAnne & Sarah for making our wedding a fun and relatively seamless experience. DeAnne swooped into our planning with less than 6 months to our wedding date.

After booking our wedding at Audrey's Farmhouse, finding a wedding planner was the next decision to make. As an event planner myself, I knew how important it was to find someone I could trust with our wedding. After our first call with Mia, we knew she was the one. She was extremely kind and someone who genuinely understood the venue and the details that mattered most to us. The planning process and tools that she provided were exceptional - clear, organized, and thoughtfully designed to keep everything on track. It was clear she had worked with Audrey's many times and knew exactly what needed to happen in order to have the perfect wedding day. We especially appreciated all of the tips that Mia provided on the Merry by Mia Instagram account. She truly provided the information we needed, when we needed it. Once we were paired with Lindsey the planning felt effortless. She was calm, cool and collected every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, Lindsey truly stepped up. She managed every little hiccup while staying professional and taking care of things so we didn't have to stress about them. Her ability to adapt quickly and find solutions without sacrificing quality or style was a game changer. She gave us total peace of mind which is exactly what we needed. We can confidently say having a wedding planner is an absolute must (even if you do it for a living!) and the Merry by Mia team is truly the best. We’re endlessly grateful and would recommend them a thousand times over to anyone (especially Audrey's couples!) looking for someone who truly gets it. With all of our appreciation, Jessica & Ryan

Erica at One 15 Events is beyond amazing. I loved her from our initial call and she was so helpful throughout the wedding planning process. She kept me organized, let me know what I needed to do before our next check in. She kept me sane throughout the process and offered so many wonderful suggestions. Erica also gave us 4 vendor recommendations and we wound up using some. She coordinated the timeline and the vendors and made sure everyone worked well together. The day of the wedding, she took care of everything. All I had to do was give her the items to set up and she and her assistant, Katie, took care of everything. She also answered all of my mom's questions and handled her concerns (which were many). Erica handled the family photos and made sure everyone was where they were supposed to be. I didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day of my wedding. Thank you so much to Erica for all of her hard work!

The Velvet Cow Brews and Booze Mobile Dry-Hire Bar had the pleasure with working with Abibi Bridal for a recent wedding and I can not say enough about their team and professionalism!! They were able to navigate several moving pieces seamlessly at a Nigerian wedding with many ceremonies and customs. The team was excellent in communication with us as vendors and we would highly recommend them for anyone seeking a wedding planner. If you want a team that is detail oriented and pays attention the small things, this is who you want in your corner. Thanks again Abibi Bridal for the excellent support at this event. -Ashley Knust Owner of the Velvet Cow Brews and Booze

House of Elleon is a luxury white-glove wedding and event planning & design studio founded by Noelle Cappuzzo, specializing in refined, editorial celebrations with an emotional core. Each event is a carefully curated experience where the client’s vision is executed with precision, elevated through thoughtful design, and brought to life with seamless flow.

From the moment we met with Noelle and the team at House of Elleon, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication was friendly, honest, and timely throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - they were incredibly attentive, paying close attention to every detail to bring our wedding vision to life. They listened to us and carried out our ideas down to the smallest details (like hiding ceramic cows under my parents’ name tags), and were creative with my extra decorating material without specific direction from me (who had plenty of other things to worry about). I would definitely recommend House of Elleon to anyone who has a vision they want to bring to life!

Words cannot express how thankful my husband and I are for Rye Street Events! Caroline was absolutely amazing to work with. 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. We chose to do month-of coordination for our wedding and Caroline met with us ahead of time to explain her role prior to us deciding to go with her. She ensured that our wedding rehearsal was organized and kept everyone on track, and that our wedding day was as smooth as possible, she took care of all the bumps, when we were running behind she was quick on her feet to move things around to keep us on schedule without feeling stressed. I cant thank Caroline and her assistant Maddie enough for their help making our wedding day truly unforgettable. They even broke everything down and helped us to clear out the venue when the wedding was over which was such a HUGE help! I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Rye Street Events and am so thankful that I can across them. You will not be disappointed!
