    We just had our wedding this past weekend, and we couldn’t be more grateful towards DeAnne and her team at Dear September Events! From our initial call, we knew she was the planner we needed. Her professionalism, warmth, and passion for the job made it easy for us to trust her. DeAnne took her time to understand our vision – honestly, at times, she understood it better than we did. She brought every detail to life with such care, creativity, and precision. Throughout this entire process, she was incredibly thorough and dedicated, always making sure every detail fit our theme. She was consistently responsive, available, and genuinely happy to help. Wedding planning can be so overwhelming, but DeAnne and her team made it not only manageable but so fun! She took a lot of the stress off our shoulders and turned what could’ve been daunting into something we actually looked forward to doing. We’re so grateful for her and cannot recommend DSE enough!

    DeAnne was by far the vendor we trusted the most as we planned our big day. She gave us a clear pathway to guide us through the wedding-planning process, and she was rarely off her game when we needed her. Even other vendors told me the day of our wedding that they had never worked with a planner this communicative. A true professional with whom you're in good hands.

    I wish we could give DeAnne more than 5 stars because she deserves that, and more! DeAnne made our wedding dreams come to life. We fell in love with her work. We interviewed other wedding planners but felt such a pull to work with her. She listened to us as we described our vision, but her ideas were the ones that made our day magical. We wanted to have nods to Harry Potter for our big day and DeAnne did this in the classiest of ways. We had floating candles above our dance floor, our table 9 was 9 ¾, and we had an incredible magician perform during our cocktail hour. These were all her ideas, and they were all truly magical! Everything was perfect and our guests are still talking about the big stuff and the little details of our wedding day. I said this to DeAnne a few times throughout our wedding planning process and I’ll say it here too: Our wedding would have been ugly without DeAnne. She made our wedding day seamless, low stress and just simply beautiful. Our day was filled with sweet memories, a perfect ceremony, and an epic dance party! We highly recommend Dear September Events to anyone looking to have the best weekend of their lives. Thank you DeAnne, you are an incredible planner and person. We are forever grateful! You made our wedding day pure magic.

    A million thanks to DeAnne & Sarah for making our wedding a fun and relatively seamless experience. DeAnne swooped into our planning with less than 6 months to our wedding date. We thought we just needed a day of planner, but DeAnne helped us see the light! She provided us with the structure we desperately needed to make our day special, cohesive and intentional. DeAnne worked with our vision and the folks we had already hired, while bringing in the best of her contacts. Plus, Sarah was the most amazing, energetic and peppy day of coordinator. Thank you both!!! I would 100% with no reservations recommend working with Dear September for your wedding!
