If Rachel is available for your wedding or event, thank your lucky stars and hire her immediately! I met with a few planners before choosing Rachel. I could just tell she had that cool, calm, and collected energy you want in a planner, with the added bonus of a sense of humor and a willingness to help in any way she could. She was beyond organized which I loved, and she was available via text or email pretty much instantaneously, which I think is pretty rare. Rachel would ask us thoughtful questions about what we wanted for each aspect of our wedding, and then would reach out to vendors, discuss our wedding with them, and present them to us. Looking back, the vendors she guided us to all came together perfectly and matched our vibe. She was also open to reaching out to and working with a new vendor or two that I wanted. On the day of, Rachel brought along Lizzie (who we also adore!) more of her team, and they all ensured our day was flawless. We will truly miss working with Rachel! If you're looking for someone you can trust to knock it out of the park and provide a stress free experience, Rachel is it, hands down.
The absolute best planner!

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Rachel & Rachel Behar Events! From our very first meeting With Rachel through to the final moments of our wedding night, Rachel was incredible and we are so grateful for the amazing energy, professionalism, steady demeanor and industry expertise she provided. Throughout the planning process, Rachel brought a sense of ease, organization, and excitement that made the planning process so much less daunting. Rachel has an amazing network of vendors and helped us tremendously with understanding our budget and timeline. She was able to encapsulate our vision for design and work with our vendors to execute that vision to a tee- I was truly so impressed! Rachel is also an excellent communicator and was extremely responsive to all of our emails and one-off questions we had which was truly so appreciated. On our wedding weekend, everything ran seamlessly. We were able to be fully present and soak in every moment, knowing that Rachel was behind the scenes making it all happen with grace and precision. Rachel also has an amazing team who were able to support execution behind the scenes and in-person during our wedding. We were so impressed by everyone Rachel works with! The weekend was absolutely perfect, and we know that wouldn’t have been possible without her and her team. If you’re lucky enough to work with Rachel Behar Events, you’ll not only have a beautifully executed wedding/ event- you’ll also have the gift of a truly thoughtful partner in the process. We are so grateful for RBE and cannot recommend Rachel and her team highly enough!
Rachel is great!

Rachel’s boundless energy and attention to detail propelled us toward creating the gorgeous Brooklyn wedding of our dreams in May 2025. She knows all of the important vendors and has a steady presence that any couple planning their special day could surely use. We couldn’t have done it without her. Would highly recommend!!

Rachel and Lizzie are absolutely phenomenal event planners! I cannot recommend them enough to anyone planning an event—whether it's an intimate gathering or a full-scale wedding weekend. From the very beginning, they were a dream to work with: incredibly responsive (we’re talking replies within minutes!), endlessly patient, and completely on top of every single detail. Their communication is next-level, their timelines are laser-precise, and their organization skills are unmatched. Not only that, but they’re both genuinely delightful humans who bring a calm, positive, can-do energy to everything they touch. Our wedding was a destination celebration on an island that came with a whole set of unique challenges—limited resources, tricky logistics, and curveballs at every turn—but Rachel and Lizzie handled it all with grace, creativity, and total confidence. They turned what could have been stressful into pure joy and magic. Thanks to them, the entire weekend felt effortless and unforgettable. We felt fully taken care of and were able to be completely present with our loved ones. If you want your event to be flawlessly executed and filled with heart, look no further. These two are the best of the best!

Rachel takes pride in working with her clients directly. She’s involved from start to finish. When needed, she’ll bring on associates who will work side-by-side with her. She’s met incredible professionals over the years and brings on like-minded and task-oriented individuals like herself.

Rachel has been a planner all her life (it’s embedded in her personality) but she’s been professionally planning events since 2010, when she managed nationwide events across college campuses with Rent the Runway. She then went on to assist with event planning at her first venue in 2012. Click here to learn more about Rachel.

We’ve planned intimate events for 10 guests and galas for 800! Loved them all.

Too many to count! From corporate to social to weddings—there have been hundreds of events.

Couples should expect to spend a minimum of $1,000 per guest for a wedding. Please note that this estimate includes the wedding night only, not our planning fee, your wardrobe, etc. To ensure an unforgettable event, we want our clients to experience working with the best vendors possible. Contact us for more information on pricing.

It depends on your event! Rachel will be your main point of contact and she’ll assemble a team of trusted freelancers and stylists to bring your vision to life. Additionally, she has a team of seasoned operation managers to assist on the Big Day.

Super fun :) We’ll take our time getting to know you and your vision for the event. You’ll then be presented with vendors who are not only amazing at what they do, but are also good people. You deserve the best—and that’s what we’ll provide, incorporating unique twists and exciting ideas that reflect your personal taste and style. RBE will be there for you at every moment you want us to be, from setup to take-down. On the day of your party, you’ll be able to be your own guest and not worry about a thing.

We’re in the office from Monday to Friday from 10am-5pm. While we’re flexible with evening meetings, we need notice to secure them. It’s very rare that we can take weekend meetings (due to our wedding and social clients), BUT we will never say “no” before trying our best to accommodate.

Our passports are ready! Whether your event is domestic or foreign, we’ll be there! Keep in mind, events outside of New York and the Tri-State area include additional fees. Contact us to inquire!

We provide guidance every step of the way, from helping you select vendors to reviewing contracts. While you’ll be responsible for paying the vendors directly, we’ll keep you on track by sending upcoming payment reminders.
