Eli was absolutely amazing as my day-of wedding coordinator! She met with me a month before the wedding to review every little detail and then completely took over vendor communication, which took a huge load off my shoulders. Eli was there every step of the way—at the rehearsal and all throughout the wedding day itself—and her support made everything run smoothly. She handled everything with such professionalism and grace, and her assistant Stacy was also incredibly helpful. Eli is super nice, always helpful, and truly a life-saver. I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding or event. She made my day stress-free and perfect!

Working with Miranda, Raquel, and Kylie was a true pleasure. Kylie assisted us at our rehearsal the day before our wedding, practicing the ceremony to ensure we understood the process and best practices for each bridal party member. Miranda and Raquel were there for us on our wedding date, helping set up decor, running to get breakfast for the bridal party, and being the point of contact with all our vendors. At one point, as the bride, I was getting overstimulated with all the pictures being taken in a short amount of time, and Miranda/Raquel had my back by making sure I had water and 30 minutes to center before our ceremony. I'd recommend Start Rose Creations to family and friends for any event.

With over 15 years producing events worldwide, Angi & Co brings a personal touch and unparalleled level of expertise to every client we work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Angie was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. My husband, mom, and I often talked about how incredible she was and how we couldn’t believe we thought we could plan the wedding without her! We started planning on our own for the first year and then brought Angie on for the final three months—it was completely worth the investment (in hindsight, I wish we had hired her sooner). Angie is beyond generous with her time. Our weekly meetings, scheduled for an hour, often extended to two, and not once did she make us feel rushed. Her entire approach is so thoughtful—she took the time to really get to know us and our families, and she truly understood our vibe. Then, she took everything to the next level, suggesting creative touches we’d never have thought of, like turning our seating chart into a map of NYC with table names for different neighborhoods! One of the biggest reliefs was having Angie coordinate directly with all of our vendors. She worked with everyone—our venue (Tavern on the Green), rehearsal dinner and brunch venues, hotel, hair and makeup teams, band, photographer, and baker—meaning we didn’t have to manage any of that ourselves. She even managed our payment schedule, which was such a huge help. Angie was always full of great ideas, and she didn’t just come up with them—she would go ahead and make them happen! From printing all of our signage to supplying candles, photo frames, and even ring boxes, she has everything you need. Her calm, empathetic nature and fantastic listening skills made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. Honestly, we were so sad when the wedding ended because it meant no more weekly calls with Angie! If you’re even considering working with her, I cannot recommend her enough—she is a true gem!

I can't say enough positive things about One 15 Events. Erica and her team made us feel comfortable and proved their trustworthiness from the very first communication. Everyone on her team is kind and serves as a true champion and advocate for their couples. One 15 served as the day of coordinator for our wedding. We started weekly calls about 6 weeks out and her team took everything they could off our plate up until the wedding. Our wedding day was a breeze and we worried about zero logistics throughout the day. When one (minor) hiccup occurred, One 15 stepped in and corrected it in about 30 seconds.

Having a team who has your best interests at heart and is an extension of you is the key to actually enjoying the fruits of your wedding planning efforts. We serve as sounding boards, guides, directors, advocates, cheerleaders throughout planning and the wedding day itself.

If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further- Sarah is THE BEST! After getting quickly overwhelmed by the whole wedding planning process, Sarah was recommended to me by a friend. We had our initial conversation and it was evident that she was in tune to our vision, creative, and beyond competent. She immediately followed up with ideas for the centerpieces and I knew I had to hire her. Throughout the whole process, Sarah kept my husband and I on track every step of the way. Between our frequent phone calls, shared google docs detailing every minute of the wedding day, and consistent follow up with vendors. Sarah was so organized and had everything completely under control. What I appreciate most was Sarah’s eye for design. She was such an asset in creating a beautiful space at the venue. The florals, floor wrap, uplighting, tablecloths, signage, and every other detail she helped us design is above and beyond anything I could have dreamt of. Sarah’s calmness throughout the day was infectious and that is what you need on the most important day of your life! We had the wedding of our dreams, and that is all thanks to Sarah. I wish we could do it all over again!

From selecting venues and vendors to managing timelines and budgets, they ensure that every aspect of the wedding is well-executed and memorable. By providing personalized guidance and expertise, wedding planners alleviate stress and allow couples to enjoy their special day fully.

I was skeptical about hiring a wedding planner because I wanted to do everything myself, but I’m so glad we went with Serenity Event Planning! We couldn’t have pulled off our special day without Janet as our day-of coordinator. In the months leading up to our wedding, Janet was in constant communication with me and made a point to check-in to make sure I was feeling stress free throughout the duration of the planning process. She answered my texts any time of day or night! Janet’s close attention to details, ideas, patience and hard work are what sets her apart from the rest. I showed her pictures of what I envisioned for my décor on the big day and she executed flawlessly. I didn’t think it was possible, but she brought my ideas to life even better than I could have expected. It was a HUGE sigh of relief arriving to the venue and seeing all of the décor, tables, and miscellaneous items set up hours before our ceremony was set to begin. Throughout the evening, Janet made sure to see that I was enjoying the evening and always had a drink in my hand. She worked exceptionally well with the wedding party and the other vendors I had hired and made sure that the night flowed smoothly. Even if you’re doing DIY décor, florals, etc. like I did and think you don’t need a day-of coordinator, I’m here to tell you that you absolutely DO. Our day would not have went as smoothly as it did without the support of our amazing coordinator, Janet. Thank you, Serenity Event Planning for going above and beyond to make my wedding day absolutely perfect and stress free!

After 10+ years of working on some of the largest events in media & entertainment, The Ever Co. was born to focus on more intimate events— weddings! I'm dedicated to helping couples have a stress-free wedding day and ensuring that all plans & logistics go off without a hitch.

We met with Nicole about 2 months out from our wedding. We were so impressed by her organization! She created an almost minute-by-minute timeline for the day and was the point of contact for all of our vendors, bridal party & family, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our day without any stress or worries. Nicole was crucial in ensuring our day ran smoothly and kept the whole timeline on track and I can't even begin to describe what an important role she played. There are no words!!! Simply put, we don't know what we would have done without her!! My husband and I kept saying the next day, seriously though what would we have done?! When the florist only delivered 6 bouquets instead of 8 for my bridesmaids, she contacted the florist and had 2 more bouquets at the site of our pictures in what seemed like a blink of an eye! There was an issue with power for the ceremony, she was on it! There was a mix up with a last minute table addition, she fixed it! Which, by the way, I had absolutely NO idea about any of these issues until after the wedding. Almost all of our vendors went out of their way to mention how much they enjoyed working with Nicole & that they would jump at the opportunity to work with her again. If you’re on the fence about hiring a coordinator, my #1 advice as a newly married woman is- DO IT! And of course, hire Nicole!

That is our philosophy. Do you have an enchanting concept for your wedding day, but wish you had a fairy godmother to turn your dreams into reality? (Minus the midnight dash to that pumpkin carriage, of course) Well, here we are! We're all about fine-tuning logistical timelines and sweating the small stuff, so that you don't have to.

We could not have pulled off our wedding without Laurie and Lina!! Their expertise and guidance from the very beginning made the planning process go so much smoother. We made things more difficult for ourselves by "breaking the script" (hiring a DIY venue and 2 food trucks to supply the dinner) but Laurie and Lina helped us navigate it all. They were the perfect buffers when it came to unresponsive or uncooperative vendors. On the day of the wedding, we got SO many compliments about how nice our planners are and how beautiful everything was. Towards the end of the planning process we were messaging Laurie almost every day and she always had the best attitude and sense of humor! Lina helped the day come to life and even provided the floral services through her company, Floral Soiree. She took my photo inspiration and pulled together the most gorgeous arrangements that exceeded my expectations! All in all, we owe everything to Nomade Weddings. If you are thinking of hiring them - DO IT! It will be the best, easiest decision you make throughout this wedding planning process.

I cannot recommend Love & Laughter Weddings highly enough, especially Evelyn and her phenomenal team. From the moment we started our wedding planning journey, Evelyn's kindness, guidance and unwavering support made every step a happy experience. Planning has never been my forte and I overwhelm easily when decisions need to be made, but her gentle guidance throughout the months of planning alleviated any stress I had, and her attention to detail ensured that every corner of our special day was nothing short of perfect. From coordinating vendors to orchestrating the flow of events seamlessly, they allowed us to fully enjoy ourselves in the moment without a worry in the world. Our guests were also so happy saying on multiple occasions it was the best wedding they had ever been to. One of the extra cherished highlights of our day was the ceremony where Evelyn also took the role as our officiant. Her heartfelt words and genuine warmth created an atmosphere that exceeded our wildest dreams and had everyone crying. We also had live music for ceremony and cocktail hour provided by Aspen Strings which really added that elegant touch we had always envisioned. In short, Love & Laughter Weddings not only met but surpassed every expectation we had for our wedding day.

The team at Dhalia Events was incredibly helpful during the lead up to our wedding day! They coordinated with all of our vendors to make sure that all aspects of our event were cohesive and synced up to perfection. Melissa and Deliece were always a few steps ahead of us anticipating all of our needs and addressing any issues that came up with professionalism and care. They made the last few weeks before our wedding way less stressful than they otherwise may have been, and we were lucky to have them! I cannot recommend the team at Dhalia Events highly enough.

As a bride, I had a vision of my dream wedding day, but I felt overwhelmed by questions about uplighting, charges, and linens. Although I had booked all my vendors, I needed help with the design. After interviewing many planners, I found the Evviva team. They quickly proved to be the best decision I made (aside from marrying my husband). They turned my dream wedding into a reality. I hired Evviva for their design and planning services, and they had everything down to a science. On the day of my wedding, I didn't need to pick up the phone once— they took care of everything, making it easy for me, my husband, and our families to fully enjoy the day.

A Boutique Creative Agency focused on Flawless Execution, Coordination, and Content Creation for the Modern+Stylish Multicultural Couple. We would love to be a part of your day and ensure you have the wedding of your dreams! Please take a moment to fill out the form so we can learn more about you and your partner for life!!! ​

I first heard about Abibi Bridal when I was assisting my best friend CakedbyMel assemble a wedding cake in New Hampshire in September 2023. Mind you, I was visiting my best friend in Boston for the weekend because it was her birthday. I live in New York, so I took a flight to Boston to spend time with her. My friend was hired to construct the wedding cake by Abibi Bridal because Abibi Bridal was booked as the wedding planner for the wedding. I was observing how Abbe was working with the vendors and the wedding party, and I was instantly impressed. I walked up to Abbe and told her; I am getting married next year, and I am going to book you to plan my wedding. Abbe said of course! I set up my consultation with Abbe and I booked her for her wedding coordination services immediately. I just knew Abbe and her team would execute. From when I booked Abibi Bridal at the beginning of October 2023, up until the day of the wedding, April 25, 2024, Abbe has been a blessing when it came to planning my wedding. Even though she was booked for wedding coordination, Abbe was so helpful, knowledgeable, patient, kind, and just overall amazing throughout the entire process. She knew exactly what vendors would work great with the vision I had. Abbe knows all the best vendors and has great relationships with so many amazing vendors, that you know the vendors will execute not only because they are dedicated to their craft, because of their relationship with Abbe and Abibi Bridal. Now let’s fast forward to the day before the wedding, Abbe and her team came down from Boston, and from the moment Abbe and her team arrived until the end of the wedding the following day, Abbe and her team were all hands on deck! When I say the level of professionalism Abbe and her team had is unmatched compared to other wedding planning teams I heard about. She was a shield from all the stress, questions, unsolicited advice, and energy that was heading my way. Words honestly cannot describe what Abbe and her team did for my wedding. She made everything so seamless and special. My advice to every upcoming bride is to book a wedding planner or wedding coordination because it will make the wedding planning process go so smoothly. I strongly recommend booking Abibi Bridal because everyone deserves a piece of mind when it comes to wedding planning, and that is what you will get when you book with them. I do not only consider Abbe as my wedding planner, I consider her my friend and family because what she did for me and my wedding, I will never forget. Those memories will forever be cherished.
