    As a collaborative planner who has worked alongside Ricki Lewis Events on many weddings, I can say that their expertise and professionalism are unmatched. Every wedding is handled with care, creativity, and flawless attention to detail. Ricki and her team anticipate every need, from the early planning stages to the final send-off. Even when unexpected challenges arise — a sudden rain shower, a timeline shift, or a vendor delay — they respond calmly and efficiently, ensuring the couple never feels the stress behind the scenes. Their trusted vendor relationships, clear communication, and genuine dedication consistently create weddings that feel seamless, personal, and unforgettable. I’ve seen firsthand how Ricki Lewis Events turns visions into experiences, and I would recommend them to any couple seeking a beautifully organized wedding.

    Ricki Lewis was an absolute godsend in planning my daughter’s wedding. Her wealth of experience was invaluable. She has strong relationships with every imaginable vendor and venue, and her impeccable eye for detail extends from the tiniest touches, to the grandest design elements. Ricki planned a truly stunning wedding for us, kept everything on schedule, and was always prompt and responsive to every email, text, or call. She’s also a joy to be around—warm, upbeat, and endlessly patient. As someone who started with zero knowledge about planning a wedding, I was so grateful for the time and care she took to explain every option clearly. Because of Ricki, what could have been a stressful process became a joyful and lasting memory for our family.

    I wasn’t sure it was necessary to have the expense of a wedding planner, but after it was all over, I am happy I did. More importantly, like many relationships, I found the right wedding planner in Ricki Lewis and her team at Ricki Lewis Events. From start to finish, Ricki was amazing! Whenever help was needed, she couldn’t do enough. The three things that were most important to us were finding the right venue, having really good food, and making it the wedding I could afford. I’ve heard from friends that their planner tried to upsell everything. Ricki never pushed to the more expensive way. I found her to always be on top of her game – details were covered, and she was always in regular contact with me. That made everything less stressful. Ricki has become a friend, and I highly recommend her services!
