Awarded Best of Zola
I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

We loved working with Allie for our March wedding at the Garden Villa. She was professional, responsive, and very helpful in the planning process (we got a day-of-coordinator package but met with her a couple times beforehand to review details). On the day of, she made sure all decorations and people were where they were supposed to go, and did a great job with keeping some family members (and even us) who lost track of time on schedule. It was a truly beautiful day thanks to her help and we couldn't recommend more.

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!

Utano Event & Wedding Planning 
Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Ithaca, NY

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!

We had our wedding in June this year and we can confidently say it would not have happened without Shaymah Ansari Weddings! As a couple, we are not big wedding people, but we ultimately choose to have a wedding due to our families. Shaymah was able to meet us where we were as a couple and was able to guide us step by step through the hectic process that is wedding planning. Shaymah and her team were able to be the eyes, ears, and overall planning we needed at each step in the wedding planning process by providing the much needed research, resources, and organization. When we (or our family) had specific things they wanted to include, Shaymah was able to prioritize these traditions/inclusions and seamlessly integrate them into the larger whole. The whole team is incredibly organized, communicative, and detail oriented while still being responsive and friendly. We would recommend Shaymah Ansari Weddings to anyone planning a wedding or event, especially if they would like someone who can really take the lead on their behalf!

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.

Throughout the whole planning process, her professionalism, wealth of experience, organization, and attention to detail did not go unnoticed. She was incredibly attentive to all of our requests, and her experience and connections in the industry saved us so much time and effort.

Every detail was executed to perfection, and they brought the Market to life. Our guests have not stopped raving about how amazing the space was, and we have Courtney and her team to thank!

We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!

While planning events as a side hustle for over a decade, I have also been a nonprofit event coordinator, farmer, and music festival planner. My background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding I plan. Sustainability, Inclusivity and Couple Advocacy are extremely important to me. Some fun facts: Leo with Taurus Moon and Libra Rising, ENFP, a Peacemaker, and I love a good personality quiz. I'm a sucker for fashion, and like to joke that ! can smell a good consignment/vintage shop. I had a wedding Pinterest 8 years before I even met my husband, and I will do anything in my power to give you the wedding you want.

My wife and I couldnt be more happy with having Kris on our vendor team for our florals! She went above and beyond to understand and execute our vision, letting our venue speak for itself while complimenting it in every way -- we were looking for loose, natural installs and bouquets and she did a perfect job. Leading up to the wedding she was incredibly communicative and always open for a phone call and let us make some last-minute adjustments after we did our walkthrough. Day-of, she was such a calming force. All of our other vendors loved her and I think she flipped our ceremony florals to the reception space in record time. We love Kris and consider her a member of the family now!! Seriously couldnt recommend her enough.

Rachael truly has all of the best connections in the finger lakes area and there’s no way we would have found such fantastic vendors without her. There isn’t a single thing I would have changed about our wedding, literally every single detail was perfect. From martini ice luges to a raw bar, Rachael saw our vision and said “you got it” with no hesitation. It was almost like Rachael brought the most magical sunset to our wedding too.

Envitation is an eco-conscious wedding and event planning company serving NY , Long Island & Beyond. From intimate dinners to full-scale celebrations, we specialize in curating thoughtful, beautiful events with purpose and intention. Our goal is to curate your story in a seamless, elevated & unforgettable way. We strive to not only create moments but rather memories that last a lifetime.

My husband and I found Amore from Envitation Event Planning a little over a month before our wedding, and truly, she was a godsend. After a previous day-of coordinator backed out, I made a post in the Long Island Budget Brides Asking Group looking for someone who could fit our budget. Amore’s comment immediately stood out, and after our first phone call, we just knew she was something special. She even traveled to us, which meant so much. From the moment we spoke, her professionalism, warmth, and genuine care were unmatched. As a very anxious bride, I cannot express how calming and reassuring she was. She listened, she understood, and she instantly made me feel like everything was going to be okay — and it absolutely was because of her. Amore went above and beyond in every single way. She executed all of my DIY projects flawlessly (even with a very short setup window), managed all of our vendors, kept everyone on timeline, handled vendor tips, coordinated cleanup, and still made sure my husband and I always had whatever we needed throughout the night. Our guests were even raving about her — that alone says everything. I can say with full confidence that without Amore, our day would not have been the magical, seamless, stress-free day it turned out to be. She cared for our wedding like it was her own, and that is something you cannot put a price on. If you’re on the fence, anxious, or wondering how everything will come together — especially if you have DIY setups or a tight schedule — my husband and I recommend Amore a thousand times over. Hiring her was one of the best wedding decisions we made. Thank you, Amore, for making our dream day truly perfect.

Based in the Pocono Mountains, We Do Events offers custom wedding planning in the Hudson Valley, Poconos, and Catskills. Wherever you dream of saying “I do,” we’ll make sure your event is not just picturesque, it’s planned — and pulled off — to perfection.

So, she decided to fill it. Now a top-rated, award-winning company, We Do Events serves couples in the Hudson Valley, Catskills, and Poconos region. We’re like the wedding guide we wish we’d had — and now you do.

Working with Jilian was a delight. From day one, she was quick to reply to every email and on top of all the details. Our calls with her were always pleasant and productive. She quickly grasped our vision for the wedding and had lots of helpful tips. Our wedding was a little more DIY than most but Jilian took it in her stride. On the day of the wedding Paulina and Mary were a reassuring presence and did a great job of smoothing over minor hiccups. 10/10, would recommend.

Working with Kesher was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the beginning, she was organized, responsive, and truly understood the vision we were going for. Planning a wedding comes with a lot of moving parts, and having someone who could step in, handle details, and keep everything on track made such a difference. On the day of the wedding, she and her team took over seamlessly. They handled setup, coordinated with vendors, and made sure everything flowed the way it was supposed to — which allowed us to actually enjoy our day without stress. There were definitely moments where we needed guidance or last-minute adjustments, and she handled them calmly and professionally. That kind of presence is invaluable on such an important day. If you’re on the fence about hiring a coordinator — do it. And if you’re lucky enough to work with her, you’ll be in great hands. Highly recommend!

Gavin Esham Events

  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Ithaca, NY

Gavin Esham is a Pennsylvania-based wedding and event planner who combines artistry, creativity, and organization to craft meaningful celebrations. With a background in opera, theater, and dance from Northwestern University, he spent years performing on stages across the world — from international venues to Broadway. That experience gave him a unique perspective on timing, flow, and the energy it takes to create unforgettable moments. After stepping away from the stage, Gavin was recruited into the world of events, where he discovered his passion for guiding couples and clients through the planning and design process

I don’t even know where to begin — working with Gavin for our destination wedding was an absolute dream come true! He made the entire planning process feel effortless, organized, and (dare I say) fun — even from thousands of miles away. Every detail, from coordinating with vendors to creating a seamless timeline, was handled with such professionalism and care. Gavin anticipated things I never would have thought of and made sure everything ran flawlessly on the big day. I was able to truly relax and enjoy every moment, knowing we were in the best hands possible. Our wedding turned out to be everything we imagined and more — stunning, joyful, and perfectly “us.” Guests are still talking about how beautiful and well-organized everything was! If you’re considering hiring Gavin for your wedding — especially a destination celebration — don’t hesitate for a second. He is truly a magician in the world of weddings and made our dream day a reality.
