“Working with Sarah was an absolute dream. Planning a beach wedding in Maine while living in Florida felt overwhelming at first, but Sarah made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She is so organized, thoughtful, and proactive! She’s truly everything you could want in a wedding planner. One of the biggest challenges we faced was finding the right beach that wouldn’t be too impacted by high tide. Sarah went above and beyond. She is local, so she was able to offer a wonderful spot and ultimately helped us secure the most beautiful, cinematic beach setting we could have ever imagined. It was perfect in every way, and our day would not have been the same without her guidance. On top of that, Sarah offered to help with anything and everything on the wedding day itself from moving chairs to paying vendors so we could just enjoy the moment. That kind of support is priceless. We are so grateful for her expertise, kindness, and dedication. Thank you, Sarah, for making our dream wedding a reality! We can’t recommend Petal & Pine highly enough.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Ayden! I hired her later in the planning process, and my only regret is not hiring her sooner. She truly kept me sane on my wedding day. From quickly bustling my dress so I could get back to the party, to even helping my dad fix the hem of his pants—she went above and beyond in every way. My venue went through three different coordinators in the span of a year (something I never thought would happen, especially at such a nice hotel in Maine). The communication was a nightmare, and I honestly don’t know what I would have done without Ayden. She was relentless in trying to get in contact with someone when I simply didn’t have the time—I work a full-time, demanding job—and I didn’t even hear from the venue until about three weeks before my wedding. We still had timeline issues that needed immediate attention, and Ayden took charge. She finally got me in touch with the general manager, and things smoothed out from there. By the time the wedding arrived, I was so burnt out that I gave Ayden very little direction on how to set up some of my decorative pieces—and she absolutely nailed it. Everything looked wonderful and exactly how I had envisioned it (if not better). She kept me on schedule, executed every detail perfectly, and made the day feel effortless. I know wedding planning is expensive, but the stress and anxiety are just not worth the hassle. Having Ayden there was truly priceless. She is calm, collected, and incredibly detail-oriented—exactly the person you want by your side on your wedding day. If you’re on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator, let this be your sign—Ayden is absolutely incredible!”

“We worked with Tiny Laser for our wedding, choosing the 30-days out coordination option. Julianne helped us cross all the Ts as we approached the day. We had a general sense of how we wanted everything to go, but she asked us all the right questions, offering details we hadn't thought of. The result was a perfectly smooth wedding. If there were hiccups, we didn't know about them! Julianne and Jose went above and beyond from the rehearsal dinner on, helping to set up our linens, and figuring out how we'd get down the aisle. At the wedding, Julianne checked in on us throughout, making sure we ate, and got sweaters when it got cooler. She was considerate, polite, and calm. We so appreciate all the work Tiny Laser put in to make our day!”

Hi, I’m Tiffany, owner and lead coordinator of Envisioned Event Planning. I believe you should get to experience the wedding you’ve spent so much time planning, not spend the day managing it. I’m the person thinking three steps ahead, keeping an eye on the timeline, answering vendor questions, and handling the little things before they ever become your problem. My approach is calm, organized, and people-first. Whether you’ve planned every detail yourself or want more support along the way, I step in where you need me so you can carry less and be fully present for the moments that matter.

“We had the opportunity to work with Tiffany of Envisioned Event Planning on several community events, and her organization and attention to detail made such a difference. Tiffany has a way of seeing all the moving pieces of an event and making sure nothing gets missed. She kept things organized, communicated clearly, helped coordinate volunteers and logistics, and was always thinking a few steps ahead. When something unexpected came up, she handled it calmly and found a solution without adding stress for everyone else. One of the things we appreciated most was being able to focus on the event and the people attending it instead of constantly worrying about what needed to happen next. Tiffany is dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about creating an experience that feels well managed for both the hosts and their guests. We would absolutely recommend Envisioned Event Planning to anyone looking for someone they can trust to keep an event running smoothly.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Nichole and Julia. They coordinated and planned my entire wedding down to the smallest details.. from my bouquet, to the napkins, to customized straws with both of my pets on them. Every single detail was thoughtful, intentional, and so me. They ran everything by me, truly listened to my style and taste, and somehow brought my vision to life even better than I imagined. My wedding day was seamless, beautiful, and completely stress free, and that is entirely because of them. My day could not have been more perfect, and I have Nichole and Julia to thank for that.

“Nina is not what you'd expect of a wedding planner - she is so much more. Besides the fact that she has impeccable taste, an easygoing hat about her, expert knowledge and tons of vendor relations, she made me feel from the first day of hiring her through the moments when the wedding was over and I was sharing photos, that everything would be perfect. Like a coach, she put a few of my expectations, all of my anxiety and some of my to-do list in check, but did so with such professionalism and calmness, that I feel in hindsight her fee was more than worth it. I was apprehensive about paying a planner for something I truly believed I could do. Later than I'd like to admit, I became overwhelmed and seriously behind as the actual day neared. I was referred to Nina by my fiancé's friend [note that my fiancé was so over me planning the wedding me on my own]. I had fun on my day, I was relaxed and look like I was truly enjoying our day in ALL the photos. Adding that Nina also flew in a DJ from Miami who I was and am a fan of. I thought it would be a gazillion dollars, but it was just a little bit more than the local DJs. Her industry experience def gives her an edge and made us look super cool.”

Our approach focuses on thoughtful planning, intentional design, and calm, organized coordination so couples can fully enjoy their wedding day rather than worrying about logistics. Based in coastal Maine, we work with couples planning celebrations throughout New England, from elegant seaside venues to intimate backyard gatherings. Whether you're hosting 40 guests or 175, our goal is the same: to create a wedding that feels personal, seamless, and genuinely joyful.

“Joelene served as the weekend-of coordinator for my sister’s wedding, and as maid of honor, I worked extremely closely alongside her. Through planning ahead of time, communicating extensively with vendors, and seemingly performing the jobs of 4 people on the weekend-of, I cannot stress enough her professionalism, timely communication, and consistent efforts to solve all problems with a calming energy. As a very anxious and type-A girl, I never thought it possible to comfortably relinquish control!! Joelene was supposed to provide just weekend-of services, but she went so far above and beyond. She responded to my panicked middle-of-the-night emails and text messages so quickly and so calmly. She provided several items from her personal inventory which saved us hundreds of dollars. Her efforts were especially appreciated when dealing with complicated family dynamics - she was able to create an environment for the wedding wherein you’d never know anything was even going on between family members. If you’re hoping for organized, stress-free, and solution-oriented, this is the business for you. I plan to use Joelene for my own wedding in a few years. Cannot recommend her enough.”

“Kaileigh was an absolute delight to work through all phases of the wedding planning process. We enjoyed all our pre wedding meetings with her via video call and felt confident with all the decisions we made. Kaileigh communicated in a clear and positive way and knew all the right questions to ask which allowed us to feel relaxed during the wedding planning and during our big day without missing important details. She developed a day of schedule that we were able to review multiple times prior to it being shared with all our wedding vendors. Kaileigh and her team member, Paige, effectively instructed and organized our wedding party during rehearsal dinner to allow for adequate preparation while still encouraging us to have fun together. Kaileigh took the time to check in with both my husband and I day of to iron out any last minute requests and assure that we were stress free. Our wedding was a Maine beach wedding which meant many moving parts and unpredictable weather, but Kaileigh truly did an amazing job coordinating to assure that all our meaningful details and weddings dreams came to life. Thanks to Kaileigh and Paige's attention to detail our wedding day ran smoothly and our wedding was everything we ever wanted.

“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!!”

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!”

“Liv was awesome to work with! We went with the partial planning package - it was a great value and in the months leading up to the wedding, there was very little we had to do thanks to Liv. She was proactive and brought a lot of great ideas to the table, making our planning process and day of much easier. In particular, she helped us select room design and wedding decor - and it came out great! It was apparent how much Liv cared about her clients, and truly wanted to make sure that our day was just as special as it deserved to be.”

We offer a full line of top quality tents, tables, farm tables, chairs, dance floors, lighting, place settings, linens, catering equipment and more.

“We used Showcase Events Rentals for our wedding on 9-22-23. Our experience was great; their selection of rentals was vast their prices were fair consistent in comparison to other local rental companies. We found that Showcase had the best looking best priced farm tables, which fit out aesthetic perfectly. We specifically chose Showcase because they came highly recommended by our venue for their quality, set up clean up services, month-of coordinator, Sheena. 10/10 recommend. We were very excited to utilize their month-of coordinating services. To no fault of her own, we didn’t really utilize Sheena’s coordinating help too much the actual month-of (we had pretty much everything ready to go a few months in advance we took care of final communications with vendors ahead of time), so I can’t speak to her level of involvement in that sense. However, Sheena was very responsive to our emails from the time we booked our rentals (9 months in advance) she was very helpful with coordinating the rehearsal, setting up the venue the morning of, helping facilitate the smoothest, most stress-free day possible. She was super prepared during our check-in phone call, and we were confident in her ability to handle anything that came up so that we wouldn’t have to! She even purchased several cases of High Noons for us DURING our reception when we unexpectedly ran out! She was fantastic. Sheena worked with 2 other coordinators that day, Kim Kat. Kat was a HUGE help at the start of the ceremony – she helped hold my dress’s train keep me hidden from the guests during the bridal party processional. She has a very calming presence talked me through each moment leading up to my entrance, pointing out my *now* husband escorting his mom down the aisle, pointing out my dad, reassuring me that all those jitters I was feeling in that moment would soon go away the moment I saw my husband at the end of the aisle. She was so right, it was very special to be able to share those moments with someone as sweet as her.”

Her hustle, drive, organization, communication, creativity, and attention to detail make her one of the best planners I have worked with to date.

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.

“We LOVED working with Danielle and Solstice Planning Studio. She took all of our quirky, off beat ideas and not only worked with us to make them happen, but did so while honoring our aesthetic. At every turn, if we had a question or a challenge, she met us with a smile and determination to answer and/or solve it. Danielle is very organized, has a wide network, and the openness to try new things. She is also kind, funny, and is a great advocate for her clients. Additionally, her day-of coordination was spot on! We couldn't have pulled off what we did without her. We consider ourselves very lucky to have worked with Solstice Planning.”

“My husband, Chris, and I were fortunate enough to book with MB Events almost two years out from our wedding date of July 19, 2025. We love telling everyone that working with Marissa was the 2nd best decision we made (other than marrying each other, of course!!) Throughout the inevitable chaos of wedding planning, Marissa was our rock. She kept us on track with timelines and payments, managed communication with nearly 10 vendors at once, and helped bring our entire wedding vision to life. She truly has “the eye” — something Chris and I lack — making her guidance that much more invaluable when crafting our mood board and creating the overall design for wedding day. Her dedication, hard work and care never went unnoticed and we even had guests come up to us that night saying how amazing her team is! Every hiccup was handled with grace and professionalism, allowing our day to run as smoothly as possible (and it did!) If you choose to hire Marissa, just know you are not just hiring a planner but also gaining a friend and member of the family. Working with her over the last two years has been a blessing and more, and we owe so much of the joy we felt on wedding day to her. THANK YOU Marissa and MB events! We love you!”

The mission behind what I do is simple: I want you to be fully present and soak in every joyful moment on your wedding day. You’ve spent so much time planning and dreaming about this celebration — my job is to make sure everything comes together seamlessly so you can just enjoy it. From managing your timeline and vendors to handling any last-minute details, I’ll be there making sure things run smoothly behind the scenes. Every couple and every wedding is unique, so I’d love to learn more about your vision, priorities, and what’s most important to you both.

“Brittany was absolutely incredible, and hiring her as our final-detail wedding planner was hands down the best decision I made during the entire planning process. From the very beginning, Brittany went above and beyond. She helped me with everything from choosing my wedding dress to managing tailoring timelines, and she made sure I had every detail booked and organized well in advance. Even though we were planning from different states, Brittany made it seamless with thoughtful coordination calls and constant communication. Distance was never an issue. In the week leading up to the wedding, she truly came through. Brittany joined me at the venue for a full walkthrough, helped set up our archways, and coordinated flawlessly with all of our vendors. When my hair stylist unexpectedly canceled, Brittany stepped in immediately and saved the day by helping with both my hair and my mom’s—something I will forever be grateful for. She didn’t stop there. The day after the wedding, Brittany also helped coordinate and execute a beautiful brunch for our guests at our home, allowing us to relax and actually enjoy time with everyone. Brittany is calm, organized, kind, and incredibly capable under pressure. Having her by my side made the entire experience stress-free and joyful. I truly can’t imagine our wedding without her, and I would recommend her to anyone planning their big day.”
