Even with a hurricane headed straight towards her home she was quick to reassure me that it wouldn’t effect my wedding day. Her work was fantastic - her and her team were thorough and efficient in every aspect. When our caterer was running late, the Faithful Grounds team quickly stepped in to ensure we had plenty of food for our cocktail hour. They were in constant communication with us, checking in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Thanks to their hard work and attention to detail, our wedding day was perfect from start to finish. Even our guests mentioned how attentive they were to my husband and I.

Loved working with Allie as part of her partial planning package. Leading up to our wedding, she was very dutiful in organizing (and staying on top of) our vendors to ensure everything was in order for our wedding at The Howey Mansion in Howey-in-the-hills, FL. She was very resourceful the day before our wedding, handling and transporting all of our intricate wedding details. She even went above and beyond in handling our signage with care, enough so that she had to fix a few things for us to ensure they were “show” ready. It was extremely appreciated and clear that she really cared about our big day and wanted it to be perfect. Something that really stood out to me was how she handled my anxieties, always keeping me at ease and letting me know that she had it under control. I can’t thank her enough for contributing to our special day.

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
Words do not begin to describe how incredible working with Brooke has been. We were originally having our wedding in St. Pete before finding out that our venue had cancelled less than 90 days before our date due to damages from the Hurricane. Brooke overextended herself and found multiple venues that were available for the same date knowing that was important to us. By the end of the week, she had set up multiple interviews which she attended and helped us secure our new venue at the Tampa EDITION which we ended up loving more than our original venue. Brooke was dependable and available whenever we had a question and kept open lines of communication. She is innovative and her organizational skills/attention to detail goes unmatched. She originally helped us plan a fun beach wedding and in less than three months pivoted to help us plan a formal affair. On our wedding day, Brooke and Ada did an amazing job with setting up the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception spaces; we were in shock by how perfectly they enacted the vision we had in our heads for our wedding. During the wedding, they kept the timeline of events going and kept the vibes high while we were busying having an absolute blast with our friends and family. The audio guest book supplied by Brooke is an absolute must. Listening to everyone's messages a week after the wedding brought us so much joy and laughter; just imagine more chaotic messages as the drinks flow and the night progresses. We decided to include the photo booth last minute and am so happy we did as it was a complete hit with all of our guests throughout the entire night. We cannot imagine a more perfect team to help plan your wedding. Brooke and Co. truly made our day the best day of our lives and we cannot recommend her enough! XOXO CJ and Matt

I wanted drama and Eleni DELIVERED DRAMA! I explained to her how important that wow factor is to me. I am over the top with everything and my wedding day was no exception. I loved her photos, so I decided to schedule a consultation with her, and it was the best decision I made. I haven't seen any other planners on Long Island that have the eye for design like eleni. I had my wedding in Florida, but I live in New York and Eleni was the obvious choice because I loved her designs and because she traveled between New York and Florida. She handled my every need or question or request with so much kindness She consistently reassured me, and she executed every detail of my wedding flawlessly. My sister just got engaged and we're hiring Eleni! My top recommendation!!

Hi, I'm Marykate! Owner and lead planner of Events by Marykate a wedding planning company based in the Tampa Bay area. With over a decade in the event industry, I started helping couples navigate the wedding industry because of the headaches I experienced during my own journey. With my combined corporate event and wedding industry expertise, I'm passionate about helping you understand budgeting, navigating vendor pricing, logistics, and taking the confusion out of the planning process. I know how overwhelming it can all feel. Your wedding is one-of-a-kind, and your planning experience should reflect that. 🥂

Christina is phenomenal but she did not do my wedding yet, she did my 40th birthday party. I am from Pembroke Pines, Florida and she’s from Apopka, Florida. She came highly recommended and it was mind blowing that she was willing to work with me without a doubt. Her customer service, professionalism and attitude was amazing. I love for all my event to be nice and very well put together. I didn’t just want a 40th birthday party, I wanted something nice and different so she help me to think outside that simple box with all my ideas. Most importantly, I wanted a very nice venue and she made sure of that.Thank you again Christina and I will be returning when it’s time for me to say I do.

I am Terri Gilbreath owner and lead planner. I have been working in the wedding industry for over 21 years now. I love a great party and feel your event should reflect your style and personality. We work together to combine the best of our experience with what you want. Our company has become a leader in building from the ground up events (Basically building an event space in the middle of nowhere or home/estate based.)

Terri and the team at G.G. Events were an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! Terri was always just a call or text away, and her communication style was incredibly responsive and attentive. The quality of their work and value was unparalleled - they were efficient, hard working, and determined to make our wedding day absolutely amazing. Terri not only made our wedding day a dream come true, but the entire planning experience was a breeze thanks to her. She made all of our wants happen and then some, smoothing over any hiccups that came up with creative solutions. My whole family loves and appreciates everything G.G. Events did for us - we truly could not have asked for better. My wedding day was the best day of my life, and Terri and her team played a huge part in making all of my wedding dreams come true.
