About SantanaRain
SantanaRain
Personally, my husband and I have been married for a little over 20 years. I am a mother of 2 beautiful teenage daughters. I am also a lover of scrapbooks, holiday traditions, photography, PSL, Pinterest and wine. Organizationally, I like to check in with all of my clients each week on Tuesdays. This helps us all stay organized and makes sure tasks do not sneak up on us. I find joy in bringing their vision to life. Making you feel comfortable and taken care of during a party is my love language.
Professionally, I am able to watch over the broad strokes of an event, while keeping the details at the forefront of the design vision. My team and I will: be the calm voice in your room, run your event with joy and kindness, and provide an environment where you are having a good time, instead of being pulled away from your guests to handle logistics.
In three words: Fun, Supportive, Thoughtful

Nickie and her team were SO amazing!!!
From day one, Nickie at SantanaRain made wedding planning feel exciting instead of overwhelming. She checked in on me every Tuesday and met with me whenever I needed to talk through my nerves or work through the details, which meant so much. Nickie's calm and positive energy kept me stress-free the entire time leading up to the big day. On wedding day, her team went above and beyond—when I realized I forgot my veil at home, they hand-made me one for photos without hesitation. Nickie and her team truly brought my vision to life and made me feel special and taken care of from start to finish. I can't imagine planning a wedding without her!

Truly an outstanding wedding planner
Nickie & her team were everything we could’ve hoped for to make our daughter’s wedding stress free and full of joy! She is extremely organized, so fun, kind, knowledgeable and helpful with making the best decisions along the way! I would recommend SantanaRain to anyone planning a wedding!

My Favorite Vendor of the Year
If you want a planner who treats you like family, a friend you’ve known forever, or just cares about your wedding as much as you do? Then hire SantanaRain! From our first meeting, we knew we wanted to go with Nickie! We spoke several times a month over the 14 months I was engaged. She quickly became part of the family. I got married in Southern Indiana, while living in Pennsylvania and she made it so unstressful the whole time. The day of the wedding, I didn’t have a bridal party, but I also didn’t need one with Nickie’s team. My dress got fluffed the entire day during photos and ceremony. Something wasn’t going right with the crinoline and they were there to fix it. My caterer showed up 3 hours late, they kept me calm and they quickly found solutions. They never felt like a vendor, instead they truly were like family. When I say you are hiring the best of the best, I truly mean it with the sweetest team ever!

BEST WEDDING PLANNER EVER!!!!!!
I honestly wasn’t planning on hiring a wedding planner at first, but being referred to Nickie Fisher with SantanaRain Events was one of the greatest blessings throughout my wedding journey. Looking back, I truly cannot imagine our wedding day without her. From the moment we started working together, Nickie poured her whole heart into making our vision come to life. She didn’t just plan a wedding she created a day that was more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Because of her, I was able to be fully present, soak in every moment, and marry the love of my life without a single worry. That kind of peace is something every bride deserves, and it’s a gift I’ll always be grateful for. What makes Nickie so special goes far beyond her talent. She is one of the kindest, most genuine, and selfless people I have ever met. She cared about us like we were family, and somewhere along the way, she became family to us too. You can feel how much she loves what she does and how deeply she cares about every couple she works with. Her entire team was absolutely incredible. Every detail was flawlessly executed, everything stayed organized, and they worked so hard behind the scenes to make our day perfect. Their professionalism, kindness, and dedication did not go unnoticed. There are simply not enough words to thank Nickie and the entire SantanaRain Events team. They gave us memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. If you’re considering hiring a wedding planner, don’t hesitate, choose SantanaRain Events. It will be one of the best decisions you make, just as it was for me.
