Utano Event & Wedding Planning 
Rating: 5.0 (20 reviews)
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Utica, 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!

“5 stars is not nearly enough to describe how amazing Beth and her team were throughout the entire wedding planning process! From day one, Beth was kind, honest, professional, and just SO easy to bond with. She answered every silly question I had with no hesitation, made every single vision I had come to life (and I had a binder full of them lol!), gave me her honest opinions on what would and wouldn’t work, fixed my dress 30 minutes before the ceremony, and when a vendor cancelled on me a week before the wedding, she dove right in to help me find someone new while keeping me calm, cool, and collected! I am someone who stresses about every little thing that can possibly be stressed over, and I can say with 100% honesty I was the most calm I have ever been for the entirety of wedding day and the week leading up to it. I full heartedly believe this is because I had Beth on my team. I would have a wedding every single weekend if it meant getting to work with Beth. If you’re looking for wedding planning or coordination, Utano Events is the way to go! I cannot thank them enough for everything they did to make our wedding day the most PERFECT day of our lives.”

“We spent nearly a year working with Courtney on our wedding - and everything came out better than we could have ever imagined. Throughout the whole planning process, her professionalism, wealth of experience, organization, and attention to detail did not go unnoticed. She was incredibly attentive to all of our requests, and her experience and connections in the industry saved us so much time and effort. On the day of our wedding, her team executed our vision at the Ithaca Farmers Market well beyond our wildest imaginations. Every detail was executed to perfection, and they brought the Market to life. Our guests have not stopped raving about how amazing the space was, and we have Courtney and her team to thank! She expertly managed all of our vendors, knew the contracts backwards and forwards, and made it so we had nothing to do ourselves on our wedding day. We highly recommend Courtney and her team for your wedding!”

“Loved working with Allie as part of her partial planning package. Leading up to our wedding, she was very dutiful in organizing (and staying on top of) our vendors to ensure everything was in order for our wedding at The Howey Mansion in Howey-in-the-hills, FL. She was very resourceful the day before our wedding, handling and transporting all of our intricate wedding details. She even went above and beyond in handling our signage with care, enough so that she had to fix a few things for us to ensure they were “show” ready. It was extremely appreciated and clear that she really cared about our big day and wanted it to be perfect. Something that really stood out to me was how she handled my anxieties, always keeping me at ease and letting me know that she had it under control.

“I truly could not recommend Wedding Planning Plus more! Working with Shannon and the WPP team was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and it resulted in the weekend of our absolute dreams. From our first introductory call, we knew WPP was the perfect match to bring our vision to life. My husband and I both work in events and came in with a lot of ideas- some simple and straightforward, and some ambitious, a little whacky, and involving a lot of different elements, tons of live music, and surprises for our guests and for each other. Shannon and the WPP team were right there with us. They embraced our ideas rather than steering us towards something that may have been simpler or more traditional, and then executed them seamlessly while enhancing them every step of the way. And when we weren't sure what we wanted or we needed some guidance, Shannon and her team were just as incredible at helping us figure it out. Margette, WPP's incredible in-house designer, took everything we envisioned and brought it to life and then some! Every single part of the weekend, which included 3 days and twice as many events, was beautiful, thoughtful, cohesive, and felt so uniquely us. Our families and wedding party all told us afterward how amazing, organized, and helpful Shannon and her team were throughout the entire weekend. We TRULY felt like guests at our own wedding, and got to enjoy every moment of what we had been planning without ever thinking about timelines, checklists or next steps. Shannon and Wedding Planning Plus didn't just help us plan a great wedding, they helped us create the exact wedding weekend we dreamed about, and made the entire process along the way easier and actually fun. We are endlessly grateful to Shannon, Margette, Leah, Eliza, and the entire WPP team!”

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.”

“From our very first meeting with Shaymah, we felt an overwhelming sense of trust and confidence. Beyond her professional expertise, Shaymah took the time to genuinely get to know us and our love story, which added a deeply personal touch to every aspect of our wedding day. Her expertise, dedication, and passion for her work were evident in every interaction. Shaymah displayed incredible foresight, setting up a rain plan that ensured our wedding would be beautiful, rain or shine. Her meticulous nature was evident when she obtained insurance documentation from each vendor, leaving no room for unforeseen issues. The detailed floor plan and the comprehensive task checklist she provided not only guided us in the lead-up to our wedding but also served as a testament to her thoroughness. Shaymah crafted an individualized itinerary tailored to our unique vision for the day, and proactively shared this with all vendors to ensure a harmonized and seamless execution. What we particularly appreciated was Shaymah's commitment to regular meetings, ensuring we were always on the same page. Her recommendations for vendors were invaluable, introducing us to professionals who matched our vision and expectations. On our wedding day, Shaymah was nothing short of exceptional. Every event, from the ceremony to the reception, flowed effortlessly under her watchful eye. Shaymah expertly coordinated our ceremony rehearsal, ensuring everyone was well-prepared, and then masterfully managed the actual ceremony, ensuring every moment unfolded exactly as envisioned. Her constant communication with us throughout the day reassured us that everything was under control, allowing us to truly soak in and enjoy every moment. Shaymah's adaptability in the face of unforeseen circumstances was exemplified when the ice cream truck mistakenly went to the wrong venue; she swiftly coordinated with them, ensuring they reached the correct location without a hitch. Additionally, Shaymah displayed tremendous thoughtfulness by ensuring all our gifts were safely secured and put away after the festivities, giving us one less thing to worry about. To say Shaymah went above and beyond is an understatement. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to any couple in search of a wedding coordinator who truly understands the intricacies and emotions behind a wedding.

Whether it’s an intimate gathering or a grand affair, we’re here to make every moment seamless, stylish, and uniquely yours.

“Elizabeth at E&A Events was the PERFECT solution! I engaged her right away and used her Day of Coordination package which was honestly SO affordable and SO MUCH help to me and to the bride. She worked with us in preparing for the wedding, solved all of our concerns and unknowns as she is so familiar with weddings and how things “should go” and what pitfalls to be aware of.  She was very flexible and all about working with my daughter’s vision for the wedding day, including helping with updates to timelines etc. On the day of, even though the venue provided a “coordinator”, it was so necessary to have someone there who was all about me as the mother of the bride and all about the bride and her day.  Elizabeth was all over the venue throughout the ceremony and reception, making sure things were being handled and staying on track with our wishes;  if there was any issue, she was on it and this allowed me to relax and enjoy the day! Hands down - the best part of the entire support that Elizabeth provided was offered AFTER the event ended;  she stayed long after and made sure that all the centerpieces were broken down and all of the decor was stashed away in one place so we could easily go pick it up the following day.  And this was packing up centerpieces with 28 floating candles on two separate floors — I was having nightmares of having to empty all those vases, but Elizabeth made it so easy! She is friendly, organized and persistent — there is no reason whatsoever to not invest in her support for your wedding or any event — but especially a wedding … this one day can be so expensive - she ensures that nothing goes wrong and you can just enjoy your special day.  HIGHLY recommend her!”

While planning events as a side hustle for over a decade, I have also been a nonprofit event coordinator, farmer, and music festival planner. My background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding I plan. Sustainability, Inclusivity and Couple Advocacy are extremely important to me. Some fun facts: Leo with Taurus Moon and Libra Rising, ENFP, a Peacemaker, and I love a good personality quiz. I'm a sucker for fashion, and like to joke that ! can smell a good consignment/vintage shop. I had a wedding Pinterest 8 years before I even met my husband, and I will do anything in my power to give you the wedding you want.

“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!”

“Working with Kesher was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the beginning, she was organized, responsive, and truly understood the vision we were going for. Planning a wedding comes with a lot of moving parts, and having someone who could step in, handle details, and keep everything on track made such a difference. On the day of the wedding, she and her team took over seamlessly. They handled setup, coordinated with vendors, and made sure everything flowed the way it was supposed to — which allowed us to actually enjoy our day without stress. There were definitely moments where we needed guidance or last-minute adjustments, and she handled them calmly and professionally. That kind of presence is invaluable on such an important day. If you’re on the fence about hiring a coordinator — do it. And if you’re lucky enough to work with her, you’ll be in great hands. Highly recommend!”
