Socialite by Design 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Offers 5 services
  • Starts at $1,750
  • Serves Salem, 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.

Her team handled everything perfectly — the delicious menu that blended our Greek and Puerto Rican cuisines, beautiful layout and decor, all the way to the remarkably efficient cleanup job after.

She listened carefully to what we wanted and sent over a detailed spreadsheet that kept everything organized throughout the planning process. On our wedding day, Victoria handled all the setup and communication behind the scenes, which let my partner and I actually enjoy the moment instead of stressing about details.

Without A Hitch 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Offers 1 service
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Salem, MA

Sarah has been planning events of all sizes for nearly 20 years. Her background in planning events started in the nonprofit industry in 2004, when she was responsible for coordinating the annual Shake it for Shelter fundraising event at COMPASS for Kids for several years. At Cradles to Crayons, Sarah oversaw all of the organization's signature events, including the 700-person annual Backpack-a-thon and the largest fundraiser of the year, the "Un-Gala". Sarah also worked at Facing History and Ourselves, where she planned their annual 900-person benefit dinner and advised their ten company offices on event strategy and execution.

When we started wedding planning, the only thing I knew for sure was that I wanted day-of coordination support. After we toured Olio and met Sarah, booking with her team at Without A Hitch was a no brainer and truly worth every penny. Our coordinator, Allison, supported us all along the way; no question was too big or too small. Her responses were timely, infinitely useful, and a massive weight off of our shoulders throughout the entire process. We leaned on many of her recommendations for vendors, including some of our very favorite wedding components like the arcade games we set up for guests and our awesome DJ. As we got closer to the event, it became clear just how great our choice was to work with Allison and Without a Hitch, they kept us (and our many, many vendors!) organized and I felt confident our day would go to plan. Allison was encouraging, kind, and even helped up coordinate an epic visit from Santa Claus to surprise our guests on the dance floor. The Without a Hitch team was so professional and couple-oriented, I could really tell they wanted us to have the experience we were looking for, and put us first throughout the process. We couldn't have done it without them!

As a future bride planning my own destination wedding in Mexico, I understand firsthand how exciting, and sometimes overwhelming, wedding planning can be. With a passion for creating seamless celebrations and an eye for the details that matter most, I help couples navigate every step with confidence and ease. From coordination, decor assistance or hourly event support, We deliver personalized guidance, thoughtful organization, and dependable expertise tailored to your unique vision. My goal is to take the stress off your shoulders so you can be fully present, and enjoy a celebration that feels effortless and unforgettable.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Christina Vargas and the incredible role she played in making my surprise 40th birthday celebration such a memorable event. While my husband was busy coordinating family and friends who traveled from near and far to celebrate with us, Christina stepped in and handled all of the final details, immediately putting his mind at ease and allowing him to actually enjoy the occasion. From coordinating the pickup of the catered food to setting up and breaking down the entire event space, Christina ensured everything ran seamlessly. Throughout the evening, she continuously checked on the room, tidied up, and kept everything organized so guests could focus on enjoying themselves rather than worrying about logistics. She also took charge of all the decorations and created a beautiful balloon and signage backdrop that became the perfect place for photos with family and friends. It was such a thoughtful touch and gave us a special space to capture memories from an unforgettable milestone birthday. She carefully arranged the flow of the room so there was plenty of space for guests to mingle comfortably while still creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. What impressed us most was her ability to handle unexpected challenges without hesitation. Just before the event, my husband discovered that the room's audio system was not working. Rather than letting it become a problem, Christina immediately jumped into action, left the venue, purchased a JBL speaker using my husband's card, and returned in time to ensure the music and announcements went off without a hitch. Her quick thinking and dedication ensured that no detail was overlooked. Christina's professionalism, organization, creativity, and willingness to go above and beyond made all the difference. She treated our celebration as if it were her own and helped create a stress-free experience that our family and friends are still talking about. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about making an event special.

Words cannot express how happy and grateful we are to have come across Kelsey Correia as our wedding planner. As two physicians in training, we did not have a lot of time or energy to put into finding vendors and organizing our big day. Kelsey could not have been more perfect - she is very experienced, thoughtful, a good listener, flexible, creative and so fun to work with! After one brief meeting, she understood exactly our vision and hopes for our wedding. She kept us organized and made us aware of many details we didn't even realize that we'd need to plan for. All of the vendors she recommended were excellent - so talented, responsive, affordable and great to work with! She is clearly well regarded by the vendor community. Our wedding day exceeded our expectations and honestly was perfect, really in large part to Kelsey. Everything ran perfectly the entire weekend. It was so wonderful to just be present and enjoy the weekend, and not have to worry about anything. She even protected us during cocktail hour and the reception to make sure we could enjoy the fantastic food at our venue! I would strongly recommend Kelsey as a planner! She made the whole planning process fun, organized and not stressful. Our families kept telling us over and over again how shocked they were that we were not more stressed leading up to the wedding. It's because Kelsey had thought and planned for everything in advance, so we felt in control and calm. Our wedding was truly magical and we could not be happier with how it turned out

My husband and I hired Madison as our day of coordinator. We did not hire a florist and ended up doing a lot of DIY projects for our wedding decor. We really wanted a professional to help us with setup and take-down of decor on the wedding day, so as not to burden our family/friends and take them away from the event to help. Madison was so friendly in the months leading up to the wedding and offered us lots of helpful advice on things we didn't even think to prepare for, like arranging seating charts and timing of processional songs. Our original venue coordinator ended up having to move away just a couple weeks before our wedding day, and Madison took the lead in syncing with the new venue coordinator on all the things we'd talked about. This really helped us out and took a load off our plate in those last few weeks before the wedding! The day of, she came early to the venue and, like a fairy godmother, had incorporated all of our decorations beautifully before we even arrived, so we were able to take lots of photos beforehand! Throughout the event, she cleverly found ways to repurpose some of our decor items to give them a second life, like setting reception flower arrangements along the room's bookshelves to dress them up for the ceremony, making a beautiful display with our ceremony roses and boutonnieres on our memory table, and using me and my bridesmaids' bouquets to create a beautiful sweetheart table arrangement! We were so incredibly thrilled with how well Madison and her team were able to follow our vision and exceed our expectations. A final sweet memory I have from near the end of the night - my hair was getting very tangled with my dress buttons on my back from dancing, and I was overheating and sweaty. Madison and her team arranged my hair into a beautiful low bun style so I could go back and have fun dancing again without worrying about it tangling further or looking bad. :) I'm so thankful we hired Madison as our day of coordinator, and we can't recommend her enough!!

Booking Cassie to be my wedding coordinator three months out to my wedding day was the best decision I made in the wedding planning process! I really thought I did not want or need a planner/coordinator, but having Cassie there really allowed me to enjoy my wedding. Cassie was diligent, organized, responsive, and patient. Cassie was so on top of every detail and knew all my vendors’ contracts inside and out! I had done lots of research online to make sure I knew every detail going into the wedding planning process, but there were some things I would not have known and Cassie was able to guide me through. For example, one of my vendors insisted an additional hour of rental time needed to be added to the wedding day (that would have cost me hundreds of dollars) and Cassie advocated for me, citing their contract, that it was not necessary. Cassie was also available to help make decisions regarding decor, helping me decide on pieces that best suited and enhanced the venue. I explained my vision of romantic candles everywhere throughout the event. Cassie and I worked together to shape where everything would go to create the seamless look. Cassie (and her assistant Cammie) made everything look stunning on the wedding day - and expertly packed up everything at the end of the night for us. I thought I could have my sister or family friend be in charge of so many of these tasks, but it was *so nice* delegating this out to a professional so that everyone could enjoy the day. Thank you Cassie for an amazing wedding day! Photo credit of venue photos: Created Coastal Photography

Hiring Jessica and the Pine Events Co. team for design and planning was the best decision we made for our wedding! We got married at Brooklyn Steel in Williamsburg — a first for the venue — and from our very first meeting through the wedding day, Jessica completely understood our vision. She handled every twist and turn of vendor management with professionalism and a positive, can-do attitude. Every detail — from the timeline and floor plan to décor and vendor logistics — was executed flawlessly. Jessica and her team transformed a raw music venue into a stunning, one-of-a-kind wedding ceremony and reception space. She’s incredibly creative and resourceful, finding ways to bring our Pinterest vision board to life. For example, I had fallen in love with a floral tablecloth that was far outside our rental budget, and Jessica managed to source it herself — it became the centerpiece for our sweetheart table and the color inspiration for all our flowers and décor.

Working with Anna at Hunt Creative Events was an absolute dream from start to finish. I interviewed multiple planners but after our call I knew that she was the one to help bring our dream wedding weekend to life. She planned multiple events for our wedding weekend and executed every single one flawlessly. Each design she created perfectly reflected our vision—from the color palettes and linens to the smallest details, everything felt cohesive, elegant, and personal. What really stood out was how well Anna knows her vendors! Her relationships and expertise made every decision smoother, and she guided us toward choices that were both beautiful and practical. Despite searching high and low for vendors myself, Anna somehow always knew the perfect vendor I didn’t find that fit everything we were looking for. She always had our best interests in mind and went above and beyond to make sure everything came together seamlessly. Beyond her planning and design skills, Anna was a calming and supportive presence for the two years we worked with her. She helped us navigate family dynamics with grace and understanding. By the end of the process, she wasn’t just our planner, she became our friend. We truly couldn’t imagine our wedding without her and can’t recommend her highly enough!

When my husband and I began searching for a wedding venue, we visited several locations—but ultimately, we chose our venue because of Danielle. From our very first meeting, we knew we would be in great hands with her. It was, without a doubt, the best decision we made during the entire planning process. Danielle made everything feel effortless. We were working with a strict budget, and she helped us maximize every dollar without compromising on our vision. Her communication was clear, and consistent, removing of the stress and uncertainty that often comes with planning a wedding. Midway through our planning, Danielle received an exciting opportunity at a new venue. While I was thrilled for her, I couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous about what that might mean for us. But Danielle’s dedication is truly unmatched—despite having started a new role, she returned to oversee our wedding day and stayed through the entire evening. We were beyond grateful for her loyalty and support. One of my favorite memories from the day (besides marrying my husband, of course!) was when Danielle pulled us aside before the reception to see the reception space fully set up. The countless boxes of candles and decor I had dropped off the night before had been transformed into something so magical. The room took my breath away—I was instantly in tears. All those months of planning and dreaming had come to life more beautifully than I ever imagined. Thanks to Danielle, I had the perfect wedding day. She is fun, knowledgeable, flexible, incredibly talented, and wholeheartedly committed to her couples. We feel so lucky to have found her.

Katelynn made the planning of our wedding a pleasure. She was organized, always upbeat, has a great network, excellent ideas, yet not afraid to push back when needed. She kept the process moving along which allowed us to mostly enjoy the whole thing. She set us up for an amazing wedding, more beautiful than we could have even imagined. We loved working with her and recommend her wholeheartedly.

Working with Marissa and her team at MB Events, was by far the best decision my husband and I could have made during our wedding planning process. Marissa truly goes above and beyond for her clients, and her passion for her work is apparent from start to finish. My husband and I chose a venue where every aspect of our wedding needed to be coordinated with third-party vendors (string quartet, DJ, catering (incl. table, chairs, linens), set up, breakdown, etc). When we realized how much we underestimated the time and coordination needed to plan such an important event, we knew we needed help. Enter: MB Events. From the start, Marissa kept my husband and I organized throughout the entire wedding planning process, ensuring our vision for the day came to fruition, and truly made our wedding day better than we had ever expected. We planned an outdoor wedding, and inevitably it was supposed to pour (thunder, lightning, flood, tornado warnings), and Marissa and her team worked from sunup to sundown to ensure that our day was exactly as we had imagined, rain or shine. Marissa was an advocate for my husband and I when difficult day-of -decisions needed to be made in relation to the rain, which allowed us to just “focus and take in the moment” which we are extremely grateful for. With some last minute timeline adjustments by Marissa, we were able to have the outdoor ceremony of our dreams. This would not have happened without the expertise and dedication of Marissa and her team. Multiple times throughout the wedding planning process I told my husband that Marissa seems to be the only vendor we chose that is actually “on our side.” We struggled with the organization and responses of other vendors, especially as the wedding season was in full swing, but Marissa never missed a moment. She was professional, quick to respond, and extremely reliable. I know that there are many options when choosing a wedding planner, but I can honestly say, I believe Marissa and her team to be the best there is. Personally, the only downside I’ve found about working with Marissa has been the end of it all… because it feels kind of like I don’t have my best friend around anymore!

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!

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. She was extremely organized throughout the planning process and made me feel much calmer knowing that she was paying attention to the details. She brought up useful points I hadn't even thought of. I didn't need to worry about anything on the day of the wedding. She also provided frames and things to perfect the set up, making it look beautiful. I would love to work with her again and highly recommend her to all of you!
