Awarded Best of Zola
Molly was absolutely the best money we spent on our wedding day! We hired Molly as a day of coordinator hoping to be able to enjoy our day and not stress and boy did she deliver. Im a person who doesn’t love attention, and all I wanted to worry about was not tripping down the aisle- and she made that possible! From working with our others vendors to literally holding my dress up through the muddy grass- this girl does it ALL. Planning a wedding is no easy task but Molly made me feel so at ease. Not only is she the best at what she does but she is also an amazing person who truly wants to help each bride she works with! She also is your own personal hype girl- something that is so important on your big day. I would hire Molly again in a heartbeat. I can’t thank her enough!

First off, if you are debating hiring a coordinator or planner look no further. Cassie is THE best!! We hired Cassie just a few months before our big day after having some communication issues with our venues coordinators, and from the moment she joined, she went above and beyond to make everything perfect. She truly made our wedding stress-free and magical, handling every detail with incredible care. Cassie attended our final details meeting the day before the wedding, and our entire wedding party was blown away by her professionalism and calm demeanor. She guided the rehearsal effortlessly, making sure we were all on the same page, which made the big day run smoothly. On the wedding day, Cassie handled everything seamlessly. She helped with the little things, like holding my flowers and managing my dress during our first look. She coordinated with all of our vendors, set up our entire tent before the wedding, and even took care of the breakdown so we could just pick everything up the next day. We had some communication issues with our venue leading up to the wedding, but Cassie stepped in and resolved all of the details without us having to worry about a thing. If anything went wrong on the day of, we had no idea—she handled it all behind the scenes, she was so so awesome! Knowing she had it all under control gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy our day. What truly touched us were the thoughtful extras. Cassie took photos and videos on her phone throughout the day, capturing moments and details we didn’t even think to ask for. Having those memories in addition to our photographers photos meant so much to us!! (I attached just a few for reference) Her ability to manage every detail flawlessly amazed me! Cassie truly is a miracle worker, a problem-solver, and a memory-maker all in one! Everyone loved her so much! I don’t know how we got so lucky!

Wei Yuh was hired for the task of organizing a lovely and elegant Victorian Romance themed wedding rehearsal dinner at the Omni Parker Hotel on October 24, 2025. Following the dinner, a private Ghost Tour of Boston also took place for the wedding party, and the timing for these events was crucial. She did so professionally, with good communication with myself, the hotel staff, and the florist. From lace table runners to floating candles, everything was perfect when we arrived. Wei Yuh also communicated well with our guests concerning the day’s itinerary, suggestions for appropriate dress (since the ghost tour could be a bit chilly), and handled special needs requests with ease. She took charge of scheduling gift presentations and toasts between courses, tweaking them as needed to meet our schedule. I couldn't be happier with her services and I appreciate the work she put forth to make this event a very special evening!

Their communication was quick, reliable, and efficient, putting me at ease throughout the entire photography planning process. The quality of their work is truly the highest, as they crafted a seamless luxury experience for both the bride and groom, as well as all of their guests. Their creativity, attention to detail, and proactive resolution skills were evident in every aspect of the day, from the stunning floral arrangements to the seamless flow of the event. Facilitating a wedding across several locations in Boston successfully takes grand planning skills and as an industry professional with many years of experience, I remain quite impressed.

  • Serves Melrose, MA

At Hope & Love Co., we believe weddings should be joyful, not stressful. With years of hospitality and event experience, we're passionate about helping couples feel calm, supported, and fully present on their wedding day.

Let me start by saying - everyone needs a Hope in their corner! My fiancé and I aren’t big party people, but we knew we wanted to celebrate our engagement. Hope helped us conceptualize and execute the BEST (engagement) party I’ve been to! She made the entire process SEAMLESS! Hope’s industry knowledge and experience had her identify potential hiccups in our party planning; things you wouldn’t initially consider. For example, although we were a “no gifts” couple, many people brought gifts anyway and we were unprepared in how to transport these. Hope immediately brought out an XL tote bag before I even recognized the potential issue. It felt like all our needs were anticipated and our glass was never empty! She coordinated with our vendors so we truly had nothing to do day-of except enjoy ourselves. Because of this, my fiancé and I were able to lean into the celebration and did traditions we didn’t initially plan, like a cake-cutting photo op (which is now our favorite picture from the event!). All in all, I’m not sure I would’ve had a good time at my party without Hope & Love Co., but now we have wonderful memories that will last a lifetime! We’re so, so grateful to Hope for making this night unforgettable. 10/10 would recommend her day-of services and consultations!

Aneesha and I worked together on planning the big day in August of this year. Our wedding date was picked very late but Aneesha took the job and helped plan and decorate the entire thing. With Covid and dealing with last minute cancellations she was quick to get everything we needed and in due time. I am glad we chose to work together as the decorations turned out beautiful, we enjoyed ourselves and everyone had a blast. Our friends and family continue to talk about the fun they had especially the dj she hooked us up with. I would highly recommend her for your big day.

Point Person Event Services was founded with the belief that every event should be a memorable experience. Our vision is to create unique and innovative events that not only exceed our clients' expectations and leave a lasting impression, but allow our clients to be 'present' with their emotions within that experience.

We engaged Jen as our wedding coordinator a month before our wedding, and she was an incredible support throughout the process. Having Jen take care of those final vendor engagements, confirming details, organizing setup timing, and ensuring everything was in place, was a huge relief. Thanks to Jen, we could relax, stay off email, and avoid the stress of chasing down hard-to-reach vendors in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Jen was present from the start of setup through the very last moments of the wedding. Her ability to quickly adapt was remarkable; for instance, when the florist arrived with a larger-than-expected chuppah, she seamlessly adjusted the room layout, making it even better than originally planned. When the cake wasn’t prepped on time for pick-up (completely out of our control!), Jen calmly coordinated its delivery directly to the venue. Jen’s attention to detail and anticipation of needs were exceptional. For example, I had planned an outfit change, and when the time came, everything was ready: my dress was out of the garment bag, my shoes were unboxed, and it was all set up for a seamless transition. She even labeled waters for us and our officiants, ensuring we're taken care of without a second thought. We trusted Jen implicitly - she even brought my wedding dress back home with our keys. Her professionalism, calm demeanor, and thoughtful care made all the difference on our wedding day. We’d recommend Jen again and again!

Starting her planning career in New York City, Kate has worked with countless design and industry leaders. Kate brings her extensive experience to New England, where she helps clients realize their dream wedding vision. At KJED, more than anything, we love helping clients create an elevated and unforgettable wedding experience from the very beginning of the planning and design phases until the big day itself.

Kate Jubboori enhanced the wedding planning and all the events in every way. Knowledgeable, organized, tasteful, calm, adaptable, she helped our daughter and fiance envision, communicate and achieve the look and feel they wanted; she respected the budget and delivered on the priorities as well as the details. She helped make all our vendors successful, (e.g., by assembling a design book and bringing samples of rental linens to the florist, ensuring that the band had the necessary lighting, generator, prep space, etc.) I could go on and on. She didn't insist on anything ("No hair & make-up? No problem!") but offered sound advice when she knew an element was essential. The wedding was at a large family property in a small village and involved the complexity of creating the "venue" from scratch. She made the planning process manageable and the wedding weekend a joy. You absolutely cannot go wrong with Kate Jubboori.

At first, I was skeptical of hiring a day of coordinator as I am very organized and was pretty comfortable planning our day on my own. My main reason for hiring a day of coordinator was to not have to worry, to have someone who will help set-up things the way I would, and someone who I can count on to have all the answers for everyone else. Ayden went above and beyond. She is so calm and put together, she helped me more than I can put into words! We had a large wedding of 160 people with a good amount of intricate details. We also had rain that caused our entire ceremony to be switched a few hours before the start time. Ayden handled everything seamlessly. I seriously could not recommend her enough. She made sure my husband and I got wedding cake and extra dessert brought to our room with water for us at the end of the night. She is extremely kind and knowledgeable but encourages you to give your opinions and speak up. I also appreciated that Ayden had to make some executive decisions on her own like moving our LED sign where there wasn't a plug how I originally wanted it, she didn't stress me out with this question, she just handled it and made everything look amazing. I could not recommend her enough, we were so lucky to work with Ayden. I wish we could relive our wedding all over again with Ayden's help!

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. With a focus on enhancing the overall experience—not just the aesthetic—Noelle blends creative direction with logistical mastery so every moment feels effortless, intentional, and distinctly personal. Events are expertly produced, emotionally resonant, and elevated from start to finish.

I genuinely do not even know where to begin when it comes to Noelle because there are not enough words to explain how incredible she is. From the VERY beginning of my wedding planning process over a year ago, she handled absolutely everything and more. Any thought, question, idea, concern, crash out, or micromanaging moment I had (and trust me… there were MANY), I could text or call her at literally any time, and she was always there. Not once did she ever make me feel annoying, dramatic, or “too much.” Instead, she made me feel heard, understood, supported, and excited every single step of the way. What makes Noelle so special is that she doesn’t just “plan weddings.” She genuinely takes your vision and transforms it into something bigger and more beautiful than you could have even imagined for yourself. The ideas I had in my head for my wedding somehow came to life TIMES TEN. Every tiny detail was perfected. She thought of things before I even had to ask. She guided me through every decision while still making me feel like the wedding truly reflected me and my husband. And the professionalism? Insane. The organization? Insane. The patience? Saint level. She worked with my budget and constantly gave me options to still achieve the luxury, elegant look I wanted without making me feel pressured to spend beyond my means. She found almost all of my vendors, and every single one of them was phenomenal. The amount of compliments I still receive from guests weeks and months later about how beautiful, organized, and seamless my wedding was honestly speaks for itself. But what REALLY blew me away was wedding day itself. When I tell you I did not have a single worry in the world, I mean it. Noelle and her team handled EVERYTHING. She was genuinely a rockstar from beginning to end. At one point she literally did my late night McDonald’s run herself while her assistants stayed behind making sure me, my bridal party, and my family had everything we needed. Who does that?! That level of care is so rare. She treated my wedding like it was just as important to her as it was to me. Not only did she become my wedding planner, but over this past year she truly became someone so special to me and my family. My family and friends could not stop complimenting her professionalism, kindness, work ethic, and calming presence. I literally had my mom’s friends texting me asking for her information because they were so blown away by her. Noelle made wedding planning FUN. She made it exciting instead of stressful. Honestly, she makes me want to plan another wedding tomorrow just to work with her again. I’m truly going to miss our hours-long meetings spent perfecting every little detail because it all paid off in the most unbelievable way. I can confidently say my wedding would NOT have been what it was without her. She gave me the wedding of my dreams and more, and I will forever be grateful that I trusted her to guide me through one of the biggest moments of my life. I truly believe one day I’ll see her planning celebrity weddings because her talent is genuinely on that level. Thank you for everything, Noelle. I would choose you over and over and over again.

Working with Dana and her team at Thyme & Details was such a relief from start to finish. We hired Thyme & Details late in the game for our wedding- about 4 months out when we realized we couldn't pull off the wedding we wanted by ourselves. She responded to every question right away and gave us thoughtful answers that showed they really understood what we wanted for our day. Her vendor recommendations are top notch and her relationships with vendors around the city made the booking processes much quicker and often more affordable. What impressed us most was how organized everything was behind the scenes. Dana & team solved every problem so quickly that we didn't even realize anything had gone wrong. Her depth of experience & knowledge really shows- from timelines to vendor negotiation. On our wedding day, Dana & her team stayed calm and joyful the entire time, which made us feel comfortable and excited instead of stressed. Her personal touch and attention to detail showed in every part of our celebration, and we felt like our wedding was truly ours. We can't recommend Thyme & Details enough to couples looking for a planner who genuinely cares and knows how to get to execute flawlessly. It's a plus that Dana herself is such a joy- our wedding planning team was one of our favorite parts of our day.

Every detail was executed flawlessly, and her ability to bring our vision to life exceeded all of our expectations. On the wedding day, Annie and her assistant, Marina, ensured everything ran seamlessly. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire experience feel effortless. We truly could not have done this without them! If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your day magical, Annie is the one. We are forever grateful for her dedication and expertise in making our wedding so special. Highly, highly recommend! Mr. & Mrs. Decker

Hi there! My name is Liv and I am a New England born event planner. Being the youngest of 12 cousins, I went to my fair share of weddings growing up. I naturally fell in love with seeing the first chapter of my friends and families life begin. I’ve worked with some of the best vendors in the Seacoast, learning and growing as much as possible. In October 2021, I took a leap of faith and opened my own business! I'll never take for granted being able to work with clients I love, doing what I love. Let’s make your dream wedding a reality!

Liv was amazing and I cannot recommend her enough! She was so on top of things, and that's coming from my extreme type-A self. If you are looking for someone with a "don't worry, I got this" approach and who delivers, BOOK LIV! Even if you think you have everything accounted for, you don't, but Liv does! Liv truly stepped up for the ceremony to make sure all of our requests happened, even with changes happening the day before. The reception was perfect and Liv made sure our vision became a reality. I brought a lot of extra decor so I'm sure it was not easy to set everything up, but Liv made it happen! I was able to enjoy the day and not fret about details. From venue changes to outfit changes to specifically timed songs to props - everything was coordinated perfectly. We cannot thank Liv enough for our wedding weekend :)

I can’t express how amazing Abiola and her team were. From the moment I booked her for month-of coordination, she made me feel so supported and assured me that I was making great progress with planning. Even before the official coordination period began, I was able to reach out to her with questions and for advice—she was always just a text away! The month leading up to the wedding, we were blown away. Abiola created a detailed and thorough wedding guide for our friends and families, attended our rehearsal, and checked in constantly to ensure we weren’t overwhelmed. Her presence alone brought so much peace of mind. On the day of, she and her team were phenomenal—hands-on, incredibly organized, and made everything run smoothly. She even provided stunning content creation that we’ll cherish forever! Huge shoutout to Vanessa and Yves as well. We were truly able to lean on all of you for anything we needed. Hire ABIBI Bridal—you will not regret it! We are forever grateful!

Every wedding I plan is approached with the same care, consideration, and attention I would give if it belonged to someone I love. That philosophy shapes every recommendation I make from the biggest decisions to the smallest details. My background is in hospitality, so creating experiences where people feel welcomed and cared for has always been at the heart of what I do. I bring that same mindset to every wedding, helping couples navigate the planning process with guidance they can trust and creating celebrations that feel genuine, meaningful, and entirely their own.

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.

We worked alongside Valerie on a two-day styled wedding photo shoot, and she truly blew us away. She planned the event from top to bottom, and it was absolutely incredible. Valerie’s organization, attention to detail, and creative vision made the entire process seamless, fun, and exciting. The final product was beyond dreamy and completely Pinterest-worthy. Both styled weddings were personal, tasteful, and beautifully executed. As a vendor, we wholeheartedly recommend Valerie to all of our couples looking to make their wedding day an absolute dream come true. She is fun, energetic, and organized! An absolute pleasure to work with!
