I've been hired to be a part of a lot of weddings and I can confidently say that Valerie was top of the line! She was in control every step of the way. From the very first email, she was quick and thorough in communication. As the wedding approached, she provided all of the necessary information and made sure I knew she was available if I had any questions. On the day of the event, she was absolutely incredible. Cool, calm, and collected the entire day as we transitioned through the elements of the event. Valerie and her team were amazing to work with and I recommend them whole-heartedly!

While I offer planning services for all types of events, weddings are my absolute favorite. I love working with people. I love making them laugh. I love love and I love watching each event unfold. This is literally my dream job and I am so grateful that I get to work in this amazing industry.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found RS Event Co. through a friend and are so glad we did! The Month-Of Coordination package offered us just what we wanted as we were looking for someone to handle the day of details to allow our family to enjoy the big day. And while Raquel did handle the smaller details, she also did so much more. From day one, she was professional, supportive and detail oriented, quickly becoming someone we could rely on and ask questions to. She made herself available for not only calls with vendors, but in-person meetings, ensuring our questions were heard and our vision was being brought to life. On the day of the wedding, Raquel struck the perfect balance of being supportive and discreet and after the event, I kept telling friends and family that I felt like everything went perfectly! I know that’s a testament to all the hard work Raquel put in to ensure my husband and I had the best day. She anticipated our needs before we had to ask and went above and beyond in areas that we didn’t even know we’d need until the big day (an example being driving guests from our reception to the parking lot in the venue’s golf cart). These feelings don’t just apply to myself and my husband as my parents have also expressed their gratitude for everything she did. We were all able to be present the entire day because of Raquel and that was truly a gift! For anyone considering a wedding coordinator, please reach out to Raquel! She will immediately jump in to help wherever she can while also being your personal cheerleader.

I'm Jennifer, the heart behind Fresh Event Services, a day-of and destination wedding coordination service designed especially for couples who want to plan their own vision and need someone calm, capable, and joyful to bring it to life.

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!

  • Offers 5 services
  • Serves Hamden, CT

Irene + Co Events is a luxury wedding planner in Connecticut. We offer weekend wedding packages, full planning and design packages, and 60-day coordination packages. Here's the lowdown: We excel at deciphering your unique style of entertainment, meticulously weaving sophisticated and inspired designs that unfold seamlessly over the weekend, culminating in a crescendo at the grand finale. Our knack? Making intricate logistics look effortless, whether it's at a Utah mountain peak or the tranquil New England shoreline. Our ultimate aim is always to capture the distinctive essence of each location.

Irene was one of the kindest and hardest working person I worked with while planning my June 2023 wedding. A big ask I had for my wedding planner was I needed someone who would tell me if something didn't look good or what details I was missing. Irene always managed to guide me through every decision and respectfully brought up her opinions or concerns when she had them, I really appreciated that she was committed to the design and my vision without letting me do something that would end up wasting money or not working. Everytime we spoke I genuinely felt like I was the only wedding she was working on and it really felt like she was my friend and not a vendor I was paying. On the topic of payment: she could have charged me double and I still would have paid it and felt like her services came at an absolute steal. Money was one of my biggest concerns (as it is most couples) and I had heard horror stories of wedding planners pressuring couples blow well past their budget or having an attitude about a couples spending choices. Irene was an absolute gem on this front. She always stuck to what my budget was, but would show me some upsells occasionally; always emphasizing the fact that they would be fun to add - but not required. If I had an idea that would cost extra she would set expectations and help me rearrange the spending if I felt strongly. Seriously. She's an angel and her assistant day of was incredible to work with as well. She's an amazing professional who made my day absolutely perfect. Book Irene. You won't regret it!

We could not have been happier to have Victoria on our team for our July 2024 wedding! We hired Victoria for wedding day management. She went above and beyond throughout our planning process and made us feel like we were her top priority, even though we know she works with many couples throughout the wedding season. Her organization, attention to detail, and patience are unmatched. The BEO that she creates for the wedding day was so informative and detailed and brought so much joy to this Type A bride! During planning, I was struggling with the color scheme and table design for the reception. Victoria came to my rescue and helped design our table scapes and handled all correspondence with the rentals company. The outcome was absolutely stunning and I could not have been happier. Similarly, I did not know how to go about creating the timeline for our transportation and wedding day. Victoria provided this for us and it was seamless and so easy. Our family and wedding party were so impressed with how she ran our wedding rehearsal. On the wedding day itself, she made sure that the day flowed smoothly. From collecting and setting up all of our day-of details, orchestrating the flow of our wedding ceremony, and even bustling my wedding dress, she was involved in every aspect of our day and ensured that it was perfect. My husband and I could relax and be fully present knowing that Victoria had everything under control. I cannot recommend Victoria and Everlasting Affairs highly enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Mia made our wedding day impossibly easy and free of stress. She is incredible in every way! The service she provided to us was invaluable throughout the whole wedding planning process. Our wedding was at a relatively full service venue, so I initially wasn't sure whether working with Mia was necessary. However, I can confidently say that reaching out to her was the best decision I made in the entire wedding planning process! I am generally very Type A, so I was less concerned about everything going smoothly on the wedding day and more worried about being able to truly enjoy the day and live in the moment. I stumbled upon Mia's podcast and, after listening to only a handful of episodes, immediately knew I needed to contact her. In the month or so leading up to our wedding day, I felt uncharacteristically at ease, and I am certain that I owe this sense of calm to Mia. Being able to brain dump little details, concerns, etc. to Mia was incredibly helpful. It made me feel like somebody else cared as deeply about everything going right as I did. One particular puzzle involving our transportation was driving me crazy, and I spent several days poring over some possible solutions. I finally decided to send an email to Mia outlining the problem, and within a half hour, she sent back a brilliant, detailed solution that ended up working perfectly. Although I was already impressed by Mia before the wedding day, I couldn't believe just how valuable her services were on the actual day. There were so many points where Mia swooped in to help before I even knew help was needed. She acted as my “eyes and ears” that afternoon as other vendors set everything up at the venue. She was right on top of contacting the trolley company when they were a few minutes late for picking up the wedding party (I actually didn't even know they were running late until later that day, as it was all handled before I even had a chance to stress about it). She was right there with safety pins when a clasp on my dress was faulty. And she even held an umbrella over me to block the sun during photos (not sure where she even got it – she was like Mary Poppins, with the perfect supplies appearing in thin air!) It was almost as if she was in multiple places at the same time. Our wedding party was also grateful to have her phone number throughout the day for anything that came up. At the end of the event, Mia loaded all of the decor into our car and even took many of our leftover florals to a nearby nursing home the next day so they wouldn’t go to waste. I genuinely don't know who would have taken care of things like this if Mia wasn't there. Even now that our wedding day was a few weeks ago, I continue to hear stories of Mia that I didn't even know about. For example, at one point, my mom was trying to help some older relatives call a cab back to their hotel before the end of the night. All of a sudden, Mia appeared by her side and took care of it. I am so grateful to her for handling things like this so my mom could fully enjoy such an important day for our family. If you are unsure about whether you need a day-of coordinator, you will not regret working with Mia! Just knowing Mia was there made my stress level infinitely lower. I truly felt like I could soak up the joy of our wedding day without worrying about the little details and the flow of the day. Thank you, Mia, for playing such a big role in making our wedding day as special as it was!

Abibi Bridal made our wedding day look and feel so easy and special. They were like superheroes, handling everything with professionalism and care. We contacted them just 3 months before our wedding on 10/09, but they made our dream wedding happen in that short period of time. Abibi Bridal is simply amazing - I would recommend them a million times over. We are so happy and grateful for all their hard work in making our special day perfect.

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. ️
