About Hidden Gem Weddings and Events

Hidden Gem Weddings and Events

CEO Wedding/Event Coordinator

Cultivating my dream of owning a wedding planning business has been a journey close to my heart. With over six years immersed in the industry, the venture commenced two years ago. Being part of someone’s special day holds profound significance, culminating in moments that evoke the deepest emotions. Witnessing the fulfillment of dreams, as the evening unfolds seamlessly, is an unparalleled joy.

In every event/wedding, I strive to embody empathy and understanding, transcending the confines of a mere profession. Each event I curate becomes a reflection of my deep-seated empathy and commitment. Witnessing couples fully engaged in their weddings or events, free from the burden of details, resonates deeply with me. Allow me to shoulder the intricacies, providing you with the space to embrace every moment with reassurance and understanding. Together, let us weave an experience that speaks to your heart’s desires with compassion and insight.

In three words: Calm, Confident, Positive

    Incredible Wedding Planner

    I truly could not have imagined my wedding day without Maria. In the weeks leading up to the day, Maria was incredibly attentive to my vision and helped me think through some details I had not considered. On the wedding day, I didn't have a single worry in my mind because I knew that Maria had everything handled. She was detail oriented, gave direction to family and bridal party when needed, and ensured our day went off flawlessly! I could not have asked for a better wedding planner!!

    Obsessed!!

    Maria was absolutely amazing to work with as our wedding coordinator. She is such a sweet person, and her support throughout the planning process and on our wedding day was incredible. She helped me remember so many little details that still needed done while planning, which made everything feel so much less stressful. On our special day, she made everything run so perfectly and smoothly, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy every moment. We are so thankful for everything she did for us and could not recommend her enough!

    Highly Recommended Wedding Coordinator!

    Maria was such a great choice for a wedding coordinator. Not only was her pricing affordable, the quality of her services, professionalism, responsiveness, and overall care was exactly what I needed. She is also very down to earth and truly cares about you and your wedding day. I felt so comfortable with her, knowing she would support me with whatever I needed. I had no concerns on my wedding day, knowing she would be able to take care of things so I could enjoy my day. Thank you so much, Maria!

    Bride

    Maria was absolutely wonderful! From beginning to the very end she communicated so well with me! She was the perfect “middle man” between all of the vendors and myself. She made sure everything was perfect for my husband and I’s big day. She went above and beyond. I love her personality, passion for her clients and her organizational skills. If you book with Hidden Gem Events, you won’t be dissatisfied. Hidden Gem Events made planning a wedding like a breeze.

    Maria was awesome!

    Maria with Hidden Gem Weddings and Events was our Day of Wedding Coordinator. She was in charge of all the details; big and small to make our day as perfect as it was. As a bride, I didn't have to worry about handling anything the day of our wedding. I could focus on making memories! Maria coordinated with the venue, caterer, dj, photographer, and officiant. All of the "behind the scenes" details were seamlessly completed by her. She was amazing!
