Ingrid is one of the greatest planners we have had the pleasure of working with in this industry. One of her couples recently used our company, which provides faux floral rentals, to couples looking to save on flowers for their big day. Her responsiveness and impeccable attention to detail truly set her apart from most others in the wedding space, and she does so with such precision and empathy. Timeliness and thoughtfulness are extremely difficult to juggle when it comes to weddings that have so many moving parts, yet Ingrid’s unique capability to execute on both fronts makes her such an asset to work with. Her consistent, on-the-dot responsiveness completely took care of every single question leading up to the event date, and we never had to worry about getting an answer back on anything, which is so rare and deeply appreciated. We worked with Grand Entrance Affairs on a wedding happening on the Queen Mary, which is known to be a logistically more complex venue in terms of setup and weather conditions on the water. Ingrid ensured that all potential hiccups were accounted for long before the event, and has a unique gift for taking care of every single detail and deadline in a way that only someone with profound love and experience can pull off. She has the ability to juggle many different temperaments, extreme time constraints, and a million moving pieces and transforms them all into an unforgettable and beautiful event. She and her team truly embody white glove service and thoughtful attention to detail every step of the way. We will be referring her to all of our clients moving forward.

Despite the logistical challenges of the venue, we managed to pull off an amazing day for the couple—and that is always the ultimate goal! Thank you for your role in ensuring a smooth and successful event, including all the pre-event planning and communication leading up to it. Working with you was such a breeze throughout the planning process, and I'll be sure to keep referring you to my clients. Until the next one together! :)

We had our wedding over the weekend, and it turned out to be absolutely amazing — better than we ever could have imagined — and a big part of that was thanks to Ingrid and the Grand Entrance Affairs team. From the very beginning, Ingrid was kind, responsive, and easy to work with. She made the entire planning process feel so much more manageable. On the day of the wedding, she and her team handled everything seamlessly. We didn’t have to worry about a thing — their calm, professional presence allowed us to truly be present and enjoy the day with our guests.

We are so grateful to have had Ingrid as our wedding officiant. From the very first meeting, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Her warm and personable nature made it easy for us to trust her with one of the most important moments of our lives. On our wedding day, she truly went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. She helped coordinate the ceremony seamlessly and made sure every detail was in place, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the moment. What stood out most was how she made the ceremony feel so personal and unique to us. It was clear she took the time to understand our relationship, and it felt like she was part of our journey. Thanks to her, our ceremony was heartfelt and unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant, and we’ll cherish the memories she helped create for us forever. If you're looking for someone who is not only professional but also deeply invested in making your day perfect, Ingrid is the one!
