Socialite by Design 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $1,750
  • Serves Melrose, MA

With over 15 years of corporate project management experience, Ionica is the founder and creative director of Socialite by Design. Holding a master’s degree in public health, a bachelor’s in business management, and certification from the WeddingMBA Association, Ionica brings a strategic, detail-driven approach to event planning. Known for transforming visions into beautifully executed experiences, Socialite by Design specializes in seamless events that balance creativity, precision, and thoughtful design.

It was a pleasure working with Ionica and her team. I was referred to her by a colleague, and upon doing extensive research, I reached out to Ionica and was pleasantly surprised with the turnaround response. From the first time that we met, not only did she understand my vision, made me feel at ease, but was able to transform said vision into the wedding of my dreams. She took her time to clearly explain every detail and allowed me plenty of time review all of the options and services without any pressure. Planning a wedding is an extremely stressful process, specially for someone who’s very controlling and detailed oriented, such as myself. The process requires what feels like a million decisions to be made, which for the most part falls squarely onto the bride. However, Ionica and her team took it upon themselves most of those responsibilities, from coordinating with all of the vendors to taking care of every last detail to deliver the most memorable day of our lives. I cannot thank them enough for their patience, hard work and going above and beyond to make our wedding the best wedding I’ve ever been to. Looking forward to working with them again in the future.

On June 24, 2023, Molly married her best friend at Bellevue Golf Club, her workplace and favorite venue. Planning her own wedding from start to finish revealed a true passion for events. It wasn’t until her business-minded brother in law encouraged her to help others that she found the confidence to start her own planning business. Molly offers a friendly, supportive approach and customizes every event to fit each client’s unique needs.

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!

Cassie was incredible to work with, my wedding day couldn’t have been pulled off without her!!! I had a Cape wedding with a handful of moving parts as opposed to everything happening in one place— from getting ready offsite in rental houses, church ceremony, coffee hour in between to fill time, then cocktail hour/reception at the venue— Cassie made the day absolutely seamless!! I also had a few vendors who this was their first time working at my venue and everything went perfect!! Asides from how talented she is, seeing her warm smile on your wedding day is something I recommend for every bride! Thank you so much Cassie!

It was wonderful to work with Amanda for our wedding! She planned transportation for our guests between our ceremony and reception and also ran everything day of.

We were so impressed by Wei Yuh's commitment to pulling of our wedding. From the start, her communication style was engaging, direct, and comprehensive, which was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding planner. Her attention to detail and dedication to ensuring our special day was perfect was truly above and beyond. Wei Yuh was incredibly hard-working in ironing out all the logistics, from our backyard wedding, to the standing ceremony, and multiple events and locations over the course of the weekend for about 120 guests. We truly feel she was the perfect balance - someone who was efficient in planning, but also genuinely cared about prioritizing our experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brenda and her team was absolutely a pleasure to work with - from the initial planning, getting to know us as a coupe, understanding our vision (helping us through the vision since we had no idea what we wanted initially). Brenda offered us lists of vendors, made sure that we were on track and answered all the questions we had. She facilitated most of the meeting with the vendors and ironed out the timeline. we barely even knew the timeline, she asked us for our input on certain things and she just worked them into the timeline (we decided to add a last minute tea ceremony and Brenda made it work!) - we just went in intending to enjoy every second of our wedding day and we literally did not worry one bit about when we needed to be where since Brenda and her team made sure we were in all the right places at the right time so we just enjoyed every second of that day. We truly could not have asked for a better planning team to execute our absolute dream of a wedding day!

Samantha Joder founded Kaleidoscope Events in 2018, shortly after she realized the necessity of a proficient wedding planner when key moments were missed in her own wedding. From this experience, she made it her personal mission to ensure that other couples had their special day exactly how they wanted it. Detail-oriented, Samantha turned her negative experience and perfectionism into a fast-growing event-planning service where her job is to plan and execute events with the goal of creating lifelong memories

My team and I recently photographed a wedding coordinated by Kaleidoscope Events. Samantha and Demitre were an exceptional wedding planning team from start to finish. 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.

  • Starts at $400
  • 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.

  • Serves Melrose, MA

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!

With over 15 years in the luxury event planning industry, Kate Jubboori is the owner and lead planner of Kate Jubboori Events & Design. 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.

  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Melrose, MA

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.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
It is not unusual for wedding planning to begin more than a year in advance of your big day. Venue, flowers, decor, churches (bring your own priest which is a thing), engagement photos, DJ, wedding party, save the dates, invitations. The list DOES. NOT. STOP. With all of these moving parts it really makes you wonder how such a complex event can happen without the slightest issue and seemingly end before you know it. Well, Liv is our reason. After months of planning, and picking, and choosing, and changing, and scrapping ideas our bandwidth for creativity and follow-through was wearing thin. Liv saved the day. She seamlessly coordinated communications between all parties and vendors to ensure that everyone was on the same page. I will honestly say that without her our day would not have come together like it did. Everyone tells you that something will inevitably go wrong regardless of how thorough your planning. Liv didn’t let that happen. The groomsmen forgot tie clips. Liv ran 5 blocks to pick up tie clips for the boys and was back before the girls even arrived at the church. Her foresight and planning were impressive but her ability to think and adjust on the fly is what made our day go off with zero issues. We cannot thank Liv enough for her help. Do yourself a favor and let Liv take it from here. Thank you again!!!

On the big day itself, Annie made sure everything went smoothly, handling any issues with vendors gracefully and firmly so my husband and I could simply relax and enjoy ourselves. She truly went above and beyond, coordinating all aspects of the ceremony and reception so that not one person bothered us. Annie created an angelic wedding space that embodied my ideas and style. I could not have pulled off my dream wedding without her skill and emotional support every step of the way. Her services were worth every penny and I would enthusiastically recommend Before You Say I Do to any engaged couple looking for a wedding planner.

Where do I even begin? Some people plan weddings. Abibi Bridal created an experience I will treasure for the rest of my life. From the very beginning, they poured their hearts into making sure every detail was perfect. The months leading up to my wedding were filled with organized vendor meetings, detailed planning, personal check-ins, and countless phone calls. Through it all, Abiola became so much more than my wedding planner: she became family. She embraced me like her little sister, celebrated every milestone with me, calmed every anxious moment, and carried my heart as if it were her own. That kind of love cannot be taught; it comes from someone who is truly passionate about what they do. In the days leading up to the wedding, while I was trying to soak in every moment, Abiola and Gloria were already working tirelessly behind the scenes. They contacted every vendor, confirmed timelines, ensured paperwork was completed, and handled every detail before I even had to think about it. Because of them, I had the greatest gift a bride could ask for - peace of mind. Then came July 12. I have never felt so loved, so cared for, and so celebrated. From the moment I woke up, I wasn’t just another bride, I was treated like a queen. Something as simple as having an iced matcha bought for me to calm my nerves spoke volumes. It reminded me that they weren’t just checking off tasks; they were taking care of me. The energy that Abiola, Vanessa, Comfort, Dorcas, and Silvia brought into the room was absolutely contagious. They were full of joy, encouragement, laughter, professionalism, and excellence. They anticipated needs before anyone asked, handled every behind-the-scenes detail with grace, and made sure everything flowed effortlessly. Most importantly, they didn’t just care for me, they made every one of my bridesmaids feel seen, valued, and treated like queens as well. People often say your wedding day flies by because of all the moving parts. Mine didn’t feel stressful because Abibi Bridal carried the weight so my husband and I could simply be present. We laughed, we cried, we worshipped, we celebrated, and we created memories that will last a lifetime because they made sure everything else was taken care of. Their professionalism is unmatched. Their attention to detail is extraordinary. Their kindness is genuine. Their teamwork is beautiful. And the love they have for their couples is something you can feel in every interaction. To Abiola and the entire Abibi Bridal team: thank you for loving us so intentionally. Thank you for serving with excellence. Thank you for making me feel like family. Thank you for giving my husband and me the wedding day we prayed for and dreamed about. If it’s not Abibi Bridal, I don’t want it. July 12 will forever be one of the most beautiful days of my life, not only because I married the love of my life, but because of the incredible women who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make every single moment unforgettable. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We love you, and we will never stop singing your praises.

Hiring Mandy at Breathe Easy Events was, by far, the best decision we made for our wedding. She helped us think of things we never thought of during our planning process, was so organized, helped get all my vendors together the day of, and truly made our day the most special day ever. Our guests shared so many compliments regarding her services, and how she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. There aren’t enough words to express how grateful we were to have Mandy by our side. I highly recommend working with her and have sent her information to every bride I come across!

We hired Caroline for month-of wedding coordination and for our welcome party, and she was such a joy to have with us on our wedding day. She had such a cool, calm, collected demeanor, and I knew our wedding was in good hands. It rained on our wedding day, and she handled it with no problems at all. When one of my bridesmaids' bouquets was missing, she handled it so seamlessly that it showed up before the stress could even kick in. Leading up to the wedding, she was so thoughtful and organized. She asked questions that helped us see the full picture and think through any loose ends we hadn't considered, with fun ideas to share. She was super sweet, worked so well with all of our other vendors, and brought an energy to the day that we absolutely loved. We were so happy to have her by our side, and she played such a big part in making the day feel effortless.

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.

Valerie planned the most incredible elopement for us in Iceland. And she did it all in under a month! This woman is fabulous and kind and an all around amazing human. She was organized and had back up plans to back up plans. Seriously, if we had any questions, she found time to listen and talk through everything with us. She was even able to procure an entire picnic for us, that was vegan friendly too! She made all of our florals, and got them to the location we were at. I think she's a magician. She certainly made our elopement magical! I highly recommend Valerie for the elopement of your dreams!
