About Nancy Ess Events

Nancy Ess Events

I genuinely believe that love is love. I will be your advocate and your cheerleader. I’ll be your motivator and organizer. I have had the privilege to help over 130 couples walk down the aisle. I have sewn dresses, stapled pants, spray painted flowers, held hands, cried, laughed, sang, built arbors, washed dishes, served drinks and food, and so much more. I am detail oriented and appreciate finishing touches.

Over 10 years experience celebrating all love - no matter what the size, style, or location. I love focusing on intention over tradition and really striving to elevate each event. Love is love and all will be supported and welcomed

In three words: Calm, Organized, Supportive

    Nancy with Nancy Ess Events has been a wedding planner or day of coordinator for many weddings at the Sky Retreat venue and she is highly recommended by our team! Nancy’s communication style is clear, friendly, and direct, which makes the planning process and events go smoothly. We always suggest having a day of coordinator at the very least to help support you and your family on your big day! I would highly recommend Nancy Ess Events to any couple planning their wedding.

    We feel very lucky to have met Nancy in the early years of starting our catering company. After those first few events with her, we knew we wanted to work with her as often as possible! Not only is she wildly organized but she’s also hilarious, warmhearted, and endlessly patient. Working with Nancy means gaining a thoughtful friend who genuinely cares about everyone around her. She has kept in touch with us and many other couples she has worked with over the years. If you’re on the lookout for a wedding planner who will make your big day smoother, brighter, and infinitely more fun (and maybe trade some good puns along the way), look no further. We cannot recommend Nancy enough and we count ourselves lucky every time we get to work alongside her!
