    As Ocross Productions, LLC, we would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to Ayo from Events by Ayo for his exceptional coordination of Temidayo and Tijesunimi's wedding on September 21st, 2024 at Kean Univeristy in New Jersey. Ayo collaborated closely with us for 6 months to design an itinerary that truly reflected the couple's needs and vision for their special day. His professionalism and attention to detail were remarkable, ensuring a seamless experience for everyone involved. Ayo worked effectively with our DJ, MC, lighting, and fog machine teams, facilitating smooth communication that contributed to a magical celebration. We highly recommend Events by Ayo for anyone in need of a dedicated wedding coordinator!

    Where do I begin? We worked with events by Ayo and it was a beautiful experience. From day one, they ensured that all our needs and preferences were prioritised. They were willing to work with us through every step and were extremely communicative and supportive. They helped manage our relationships with vendors and were always on hand to meet with our teams. Booking their services goes beyond booking a vendor, you are getting helping hands, who will see that your entire experience from planning to execution, is very beautiful. Our wedding was very beautiful, and events by Ayo played a significant role in making it so. We are already planning to engage events by Ayo for upcoming birthday and anniversary celebrations, because we see them as family and we know they will deliver exceptionally.

    I just want to say that working with Events By Ayo was an absolute pleasure! As a photographer on the day the weddings, I was thoroughly impressed by his professionalism and attention to detail. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel comfortable and trusted me to do my job without any added stress. Ayo’s energy was unmatched, he was jolly, vibrant, and full of life which truly elevated the entire wedding experience. One of the standout qualities of Events By Ayo is how seamlessly he managed the entire event. He was always on schedule, never missed a beat, and ensured every detail for the bride and groom was perfectly handled. Even when I had a question, he always had an answer. His ability to keep things organized while creating such a positive atmosphere made the day a success for everyone involved. I can’t recommend Event BY Ayo enough!
