Elexis was our wedding planner for our October 2025 wedding, and she was truly incredible from start to finish. She goes above and beyond to make sure you get the wedding of your dreams, and seeing the final result left me absolutely speechless. I reached out to Elexis a year in advance because I had no idea where to even begin with planning. From the very first conversation, she made me feel completely comfortable and confident. The entire planning process felt effortless because of her. She’s organized, professional, and genuinely cares about her clients. Communicating with her never felt like business—it felt like chatting with a friend who just happens to be amazing at what she does. Her vendor recommendations were spot-on, and every single one was wonderful to work with. Thanks to her guidance, everything came together perfectly. I couldn’t be happier with how our wedding turned out. If you’re wondering whether you need a wedding planner, the answer is an easy yes. Elexis made what could have been a stressful experience feel like a total breeze. On the day of the wedding, she was right there with us the entire time, working her magic and ensuring everything ran flawlessly. I’m genuinely going to miss working with her—she’s that good!

Splitting my time between New York City and the Adirondacks, I bring the best of both worlds — from mountaintop views to skyline soirées. Whether you’re planning a romantic lakeside weekend or a modern city celebration, my goal is for you to be fully present while I handle every detail. At Elle’s Events, I blend calm organization with creative design to craft weddings that are personal, beautiful, and stress-free — from intimate elopements to full-scale destination celebrations.

Working with Elle's Events was an absolute pleasure. Their communication style was concise, effective, and very easy. The quality of their work and the value they provided was invaluable. Elle and her team were always on point, and had additional ideas or thoughts if we needed them. They made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy the planning knowing we were in good hands. It was great working with her on our engagement party. She made everything so easy and really took the organizing and the stress away from me. I was able to talk through my vision and then she helped us to bring it to life for our engagement party. She was in constant communication the entire time, but not on a need-to-know basis or overwhelming. We will be working with them in the future as we plan the bridal shower and wedding.

As someone who plans large events for a living, I wasn’t sure I needed a wedding planner—but after meeting with Katie and Casey, and understanding all that they offer, I quickly realized just how much I did. Their expertise, organization, and creativity brought everything to life in a way we never could have done on our own. They also helped us put together the most incredible team of vendors, many of whom came from their recommendations, and every single one was amazing. The value they bring through their network alone is huge. They handled every detail so seamlessly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy the entire weekend with our family and friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Elizabeth for month-of coordination was truly one of the best decisions that we made during the wedding planning process. We experienced a fairly large hiccup six months out when our restaurant buy-out canceled, and Elizabeth went above and beyond in ensuring that we found a suitable replacement. She is someone who will truly go to bat for you. Elizabeth was kind, helpful, responsive, and organized throughout the entire process of working with her. We were able to let go and relax the last week before our wedding because we knew her team had our back. They handled deliveries, pick-ups, moving stuff, set-up, ceremony timing-- you name it and they were there. Our September 2025 wedding day was fantastic (I might be biased, but probably the best wedding I've been to) and it went so smoothly in large part to Elizabeth and her crew. True pros. In a nutshell: Hire Elizabeth!

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. She took care of everything we needed, and so much more than we even knew to ask for. Deliece came prepared with spreadsheets, thoughtful questions, and clear guidance that helped us navigate decisions we didn’t even realize we needed to make, but that proved to be essential. Her organization and attention to detail made the entire planning process feel manageable and well-supported. She handled communication with all of our vendors seamlessly and always made us feel completely taken care of, no matter the detail. When a few hiccups came up along the way, she addressed them with such ease, professionalism, and genuine empathy that we never felt stressed or worried. Beyond her incredible competence, Deliece also brought the warmest, most positive energy, our calls were always something we genuinely looked forward to. And on the wedding day itself, nothing was missed (and I truly mean nothing). Everything ran so smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the day without a single concern. We cannot recommend Dahlia Events highly enough. Working with Deliece was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding.

House of Elleon (La Elleon Events & Design Co.) 
Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • Offers 7 services
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Old Forge, NY

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.

Utano Event & Wedding Planning

  • Serves Old Forge, 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!

Wedding Planning Plus was an excellent choice for our wedding planning needs for our June 2025 wedding at the Equniox Resort in Manchester, VT. From the start, their communication style was direct, helpful, and calming, which was greatly appreciated as we planned our big day. The quality of their work and value they provided was outstanding - they were focused, supportive, and incredibly well-connected in the region, using their network of vendors to perfectly execute our wedding and beautifully and bringing our garden party tent reception vision to life. On the day of, Eliza ran the schedule effortlessly and her competence completely allowed my husband and I to be fully present. In particular, we appreciated the way that she approached us over the course of the wedding to check if we still wanted to do the next scheduled item, it gave us a sense of control over how we spent our time rather than feeling like we were manically running from task to task. So many of our friends and family have reported back that the wedding was the smoothest of the weddings they had attended this year, and its all thanks to WPP. We are so grateful for the incredible support Wedding Planning Plus provided and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

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.

Sarah was a clear standout from all the planners we met. My initial impression of her was that she was warm, kind, and professional. She didn’t expect us to have every detail figured out and was incredibly welcoming from our very first conversation. We hired Sarah as a full-time planner, and she was always available to text, email, or chat about anything and everything. I still wanted some independence when it came to design choices, and she was very respectful of that. She is extremely organized and always came prepared—asking the best questions during vendor meetings. She also served as the main point of contact for all our vendors, which took a huge weight off our shoulders. Since we’re currently out of state but wanted our wedding in Massachusetts, Sarah went above and beyond for us. She visited all the venues we were interested in and sent us videos so we could make informed decisions from afar. I met Sarah in person for the first time on our wedding day, and immediately noticed how sweet and endearing she truly is. She exudes grace and came fully prepared with everything we could possibly need. Even though she had never worked with our venue before and the weather was unpredictable, she remained calm and composed throughout. Since we didn’t do a rehearsal, the bridal party and I felt a bit lost—like herding blind sheep! But Sarah handled it like a pro. She was always exactly where we needed her to be. Her team member Nicole was also incredible—my dress straps broke from dancing, and Nicole stitched them back good as new. I truly could not have done this without Sarah. This is your sign: book her now!

Kayla helped enormously in planning and organizing my daughter's bat mitzvah. I was feeling a bit over my head in planning the event. I probably started too late, and Kayla was able to find an excellent venue, connected me to photographers and DJ's, and calmed me down so that I could sleep at night. She also helped with the light lunch after the ceremony, the programs, and all the little stuff. She was terrific and I highly recommend.

The first time I worked as an event coordinator, I knew I had found my calling. In 2022, I followed my heart and began planning weddings, parties, and events as my career and I've never looked back! I have a wandering soul. I was born in Massachusetts, went to college in Vermont, studied abroad in Ireland, struck out to Utah and have now settled down in Southern California. On the weekends when I'm not working, you can find me chasing the last 7 of my bucket list states, exploring our nation's national parks, or hunting for all kinds of treasure - from metal detecting on the beach to sifting through thrift store aisles!

We used Kris as our coordinator for our spring 2026 wedding and would highly recommend her! Kris was super organized, setting up a google drive for us to share documents like all of the contracts, table plans, and timeline. We met with Kris multiple times before the month of the wedding and then every week the month of to make sure everything was on track. Kris attended all of our final vendor calls, which was super helpful for making the final decisions about everything. She was very easy to talk to about our vision for the day and an excellent person to bounce ideas off of. The day of, Kris was amazing! It felt like she was everywhere at once. She set up our ceremony décor, which was beautiful, and made sure that all of the other décor was set out. We got married in an aquarium and Kris had found these shell advice cards in her supplies that she brought. A lot of people ended up filling them out, which was lovely. During dinner, we had two flower girls who were starting to get hungry before their table was served and Kris made sure they got fed! Kris also stayed behind at the venue to make sure that everything was packed up and that all of the vendors got their tips. I genuinely think that I would not have had as good of a time without Kris’s coordination, so we strongly recommend her to anybody planning their wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Erin Avery (The VenList) was more than a dream - she is a dream maker, fantasy creator, and one of the most organized people we’ve ever worked with. There honestly aren't words that capture the depth of our appreciation for her work. She took us through the whole journey as our virtual planner, guided us through the panic moments, saw the potential in our vision, and as our Day-Of Coordinator ensured we have the most magical wedding we could have ever dreamed up. She respected our budget, never wanted us to compromise on our vision, found vendors who could bring that vision to life, and made us feel like family the entire experience. Erin brings a profound attention to detail, care for us as a couple, calming spirit, and gentle smile to every person she interacts with. She wants you to have your day go smoothly, as stress free as possible, and makes sure that everything is organized, found, and done correctly. We couldn't have asked for a better person to walk us forward into married life, keeping track of every nuance, contacting every vendor, and protecting our time as we approached the biggest and happiest day of our lives. Erin is truly the best and a master at her craft. If you’re considering working with her, that very first meeting you will feel the beautiful energy and excitement she shares for what matters most to you - and she’ll make sure that your day is one you’ll never forget.

At ​A Lively Event, we specialize in thoughtful, detail-driven wedding planning for couples. Our focus is simple: bringing your unique wedding vision to life while building a genuine relationship with you every step of the way. We believe that planning your wedding should be just as joyful as the day itself. We prioritize communication, trust, and collaboration. Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic mountain ceremony or an elegant ballroom celebration, our team is here to guide you with expert logistics, creative solutions, and unwavering support. We handle the behind-the-scenes details so you can stay present and excited for your big day.

From the very first phone call with Katie with A Lively Event, I knew she was meant to be in our lives. We instantly clicked. Hiring her felt less like choosing a wedding planner and more like gaining a built-in best friend who also happens to be a logistics genius and life-saving personal assistant all wrapped in one. Katie has a remarkable gift for bringing every vision together seamlessly, even when there are many voices, ideas, and passionate opinions swirling in the mix. Every detail was handled with care, every question answered before I even had to ask. If anything went sideways (and let’s be real, there’s always something), she swooped in with grace and handled it before I even realized there was an issue. I never once had to stress or lift a finger. She was our voice, our advocate, and the one person who always ensured our wishes were front and center, and truly was the key to how perfect our wedding day turned out to be. Thanks to Katie, those few precious hours of our wedding day became some of the most unforgettable memories of our lives. Her heart, her hustle, and her unwavering support made every moment perfect. We are forever grateful to have worked with her, and even more grateful that she’s now a part of our life beyond the wedding. If you want someone who will champion your love story with joy and finesse, Katie is the one.

  • Serves Old Forge, NY

Cathy founded Cathy's Elegant Events in 2010. Although she was born in NYC, her family moved to the Catskill Mountains at a young age, but they maintained a home in Brooklyn. This allowed her to have a unique upbringing in both Upstate New York and Brooklyn, where many of her relatives still reside. Cathy holds a degree in Mathematics and Statistics.

It was so fun getting to spend time with her and getting to know her during this process. Cathy made every little detail of our fairytale wedding come true. She was terrific during the planning process. When I wanted to try to handle projects myself, she stepped back and let me handle them, but was always there if I needed advice or help with anything. When I needed her to be more involved and hands on, I felt completely confident and comfortable letting her take things in the direction that she felt was best. She was always quick to answer emails and talk on the phone to hash out big picture items or last minute details. The week leading up to the wedding Cathy was AMAZING. We spent almost 2 hours on the phone making sure every last detail was taken care of and exactly the way I envisioned it. She ran our ceremony in the pouring rain and was always cheerful and positive, she was there for me for moral support all afternoon while I was getting ready, she helped setup the barn and ceremony beautifully and made sure every detail was in order. During the ceremony and reception, she made sure that my husband and I were taken care of the entire evening. Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish and Cathy's expertise, guidance and help played such a huge part in the success of our wedding day. Thank you Cathy!! Tim and I are so grateful for all the hardwork and love you put into making our day great.

It’s difficult to put into words how thankful we are to have hired Rachael for our September 2025 wedding. From the start Rachael took our vision and got to work connecting us with vendors and creating our mood board. 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. You’d be silly not to hire her. I wish we could do it all over again next weekend.

Cassie & Chelsea have been in the wedding industry for a combined 25+ years and know the ins and outs of all things weddings! We have worked to build long lasting and strong vendor relationships to ensure seamless and flawless events.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough good things about Wild Fern! Cassie and Chelsea bring decades of wedding planning experience and it shows! Everything they do is filled with intention - from the fact that they only take on two weddings a month, to how they divide tasks on wedding day, to the cadence of check-ins during the planning process. I hired Wild Fern to help me with the last three months of planning through our wedding weekend, and Cassie was there to support not only with logistics and vendor meetings, but also with the stress of it all. She anticipated my needs and questions before I could even ask them. I truly don't know if I could have kept my head while crossing the finish line if it weren't for Cassie. Everyone kept commenting how calm I was as a bride on our wedding day, and it was truly because I trusted Cassie and Chelsea and knew they would execute my vision to a T. If you're looking for a high-touch, well-organized planning team with strong vendor relationships, look no further than Wild Fern. As a bonus, they also have a sister business, Wild Fern Rentals, and offer some really stunning statement rentals that will transform your space. I've said to multiple people that hiring them was the best wedding-related purchase I made, and not only did we have a beautiful wedding weekend, but we gained Cassie as a friend for life.
