Best Wedding Planner
Ashley was truly the best wedding planner I could have asked for. From the moment I first reached out, she was responsive, professional, and always willing to answer my questions. I hired her about a month before the wedding because I was completely burnt out and couldn’t handle any more planning on my own. That was the best decision I could have ever made! Leading up to the wedding, she checked in regularly, helped finalize the remaining details, and constantly reassured me that everything would be okay. The day before the wedding, we had some unexpected issues with the venue, and I was honestly panicking. Ashley answered my call right away, calmed me down, and immediately helped problem solve. I felt so supported. On the wedding day, Ashley and her team made sure everything ran beautifully and smoothly. Of course, every wedding has a few hiccups. Our DJ started playing the wrong songs at the wrong times, but Ashley and Nadia stepped in right away and worked directly with him to make sure he followed the timeline for the rest of the night. They handled everything without adding stress to my day. After my first dance, I realized I had lost one of my earrings. They were brand new and expensive. I was so upset. Ashley, Nadia, and the photographer were determined to help me find it. We went through the photographer’s images, zoomed in to figure out the last moment I had it, and once we found the photo, Ashley and Nadia immediately teamed up and Nadia went outside in the dark to search for it. They actually found it and brought it back to me. I will never forget that! I was panicking so bad during that time, I couldn't enjoy my wedding, but they gave me that peace back. Not only were they incredibly professional, but they felt like best friends I could vent to throughout the entire process. I truly could not be more thankful for this team. They made it possible for me to have a beautiful, smooth, and joyful wedding day. I would hire them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding planner. It was 100% worth the investment.
Always A Pleasure to Work With
As a floral vendor, Plume & Pearl Events is an absolute pleasure to work with at any wedding. Their communication is always detailed and clear, and their events are meticulously organized which makes it easier to do our job as efficiently and with the highest level of service we can provide. Their events are always elevated with perfectly, cohesive details that are thoughtfully designed specific to each couple. At every event, Ashley and her team always go above and beyond to perfectly manage the multitude of details a perfectly planned wedding entails. I highly recommend Plume & Pearl Events to any couple planning their special day.
10/10- you need her!
Hired for day of coordination. Amazing vibes and team, I had 0 wedding day worries! I am (by my own definition) a type A bride, but once I handed my plans over to Ashley at the rehearsal, absolutely all my worries went away! On top of being personable and helpful in asking clarifying questions that I didn’t think of in our touch bases prior to the meeting, she and her team made the wedding go off without a hitch. We had multiple drop off catering deliveries, a room flip with a number of DIYs, and hired servers, but I can honestly say I didn’t worry about anything at all on my wedding day, nor did my husband. It truly felt like once we hit the rehearsal, we were able to outsource all problem solving, logistics, etc. to Ashley and team! Ashley and her team made everyone feel comfortable, from grabbing water and fluffing my dress, to ensuring that the reception was exactly what I had imagined (and put into my layouts). When my venue’s bartenders (mistakenly) tried to charge guests, Ashley made sure that they stopped AND that everyone got refunded (and I also didn’t even learn about this until after the wedding from my mom). I also asked that for announcements they keep the language gender-neutral, and was met with nothing but an of course, which is so appreciated! Whenever my husband and I met with Ashley ahead of the wedding, we always felt more at ease after speaking with her, not only did she show an elite level of organizational acumen, but she truly cared about facilitating everything for us. Two weeks before the wedding day, we were feeling a bit overwhelmed and we had a meeting with Ashley where we went over everything that was still needed, and it felt like a weight lifted off our shoulders. I could not recommend anyone more!
Best experience ever!
I can not recommend Ashley enough! From the first call, when we were interviewing wedding planners, it was so clear that Ashley was organized and experienced, and knew exactly how to get us to the wedding day we wanted. She was clear with communications and always on top of the next steps. She helped guide our design decisions to create a cohesive look that all of our guests raved about. She coordinated so closely with all the vendors that we did not have to worry about a thing. She ran the rehearsal so that it was clear what to expect and where everyone needed to be. And on top of it all, Ashley expertly managed several situations on the day off, navigating it so expertly that we (bride and groom) had no idea until afterwards. Even our friends and family commented how on top of everything she was! And topping it all off, Ashley was compassionate and kind. We were planning at a time where I was facing unemployment, and she helped us strategize around ways to cut costs while still keeping it classy. In the end, our wedding was beautiful, and exactly what we wanted. Ashely was a HUGE part of that. I would absolutely work with her again! She is a star!
