Awarded Best of Zola
Everlasting Affairs is a force. What a great team. They are dedicated and most of all they bring to life YOUR vision. As a wedding photographer we appreciate when clients bring in a planner. It allows the couple to be the couple, be the ones getting married and not the ones running around doing a million things to make sure their vision and experience for their guests is coming to life. Everlasting Affairs makes it all happen. From a photography stand point that means more time for the couple to be in the moment and those are the photos we love. Whenever I see an email from Victoria come in, I am so excited, it means great things are to come. Her couples are kind, fun, and so imaginative. They are the kind of people who value teamwork because that's what a wedding day is, a collaboration of individuals all after the same goal; bringing your vision to life, surrounded by love and executed in such a manner that no one would even know if something didn't go according to plan. Everlasting Affairs is a powerhouse of a team and they will be just as excited for your wedding day as you!!

Good Graces Events

Grace is a Connecticut Native, passionate designer and meticulous organizer. She started her business to fill a need that she saw to create events that prioritized the connection, relationships and fun that weddings and events should truly embody. She lives in Preston where she grew up with her husband and two children.

Awarded Best of Zola
We came to Grace right after we decided to go with a venue that nothing more than tables and chairs. Our heads were spinning with all the decisions we had to make, and Grace made sure to organize our ideas, as well as have a running list of things we needed to decide on and execute. She also was certain to make sure that we were focusing on what would make the day best for us, and not to please other people. That honesty and extra care went a long way. On top of saving our heads from falling off in the planning process, on the day of the wedding, we decided to switch the ceremony from outside to inside due to the wind. Grace made this happen swiftly, and even though things didn't go perfectly, Grace made sure that all the vendors were doing their job and truly I didn't find out about any mishaps until the next day. We had the best day thanks to Grace's attention, care, and diligence. Above all, Grace is just a good, caring person that truly wants you to have a seamless event. Her personal attention, honesty, and organization makes for a pretty exceptional planner- you would be lucky to have her help organize your event!

Nightingale Events

5.0

Vernon, CT
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $3,650

The bee in our logo isn’t just an aesthetic choice—since our founding in 2012, it’s been the symbol that informs and inspires the way we serve you and yours. Our founder’s grandmother—the wildly creative matriarch the Nightingale brand was built on. Here, our wedding planners are firm believers that our role isn’t just to plan pretty parties—but rather to celebrate, honor, and preserve family legacies and epic love stories. Like our founder’s grandmother, we are all about empowering others through the avenue of enduring artistry. And like the beloved bee, we are all about searching for and treasuring life’s sweetest moments.

TLDR: HIRE THEM NOW – if you are reading this review, it means you are considering Nightingale. Book them immediately- you will not regret it. We hired Nightingale for Wedding Coordination as they came recommended by our venue and I just have to say: WOW. I had the HONOR of working with Rachel. I am a pretty organized person, so I was able to book vendors and get all the initial portion set up. The amount of work Rachel put in those last moments before the wedding is almost indescribable. Let me just tell you that I felt that Rachel had my back the entire time when did have some hiccups with a different vendor. Rachel took care of it and handled it so well. Leading up to the day, she had us thinking about things we would never consider thinking about. Since I have never planned a wedding before, Rachel was the expert and mastermind to pull everything together. When I was booking vendors, it was once one was done, I booked the next, but the last 1-2 months, you are talking to ALL of them it is a very daunting task. If I were to do it all over it again, I would rebook Nightingale in a heartbeat. The day-of was magical. Rachel was my bridesmaid, friend, and me all in one. She anticipated ALL my needs and was the voice of reason the whole day and night. Our groom gal, Amy, was there for us too and I swear, they all were so so helpful so that Mark and I could enjoy our day. We felt like guests at our own wedding. Our job was to enjoy the day and they made it happen beyond our expectations. We didn't interact too much with the third gal but thank you so much for setting up the details of the room so nicely! Thank you Rachel and the Nightingale team for making everything come together so beautifully. Rachel, as I have said in our texts over and over, you really are the best. Thank you. Truly.

Working with Teyanna has been a wonderful experience. As a bride who had never been to a wedding I was very lost in the planning process. I was so glad to find Teyanna and she has been my saving grace since then. She was on top of everything, super thorough, and always in communication incase I needed anything or had questions. When I did speak directly with vendors each and everyone said she was an absolute doll and a pleasure to work with. She helped me make informed and wise decisions for my wedding and definitely made me feel at ease throughout my wedding planning process. She is so helpful and knowledgeable and I definitely recommend her work to any bride who needs a planner, coordinator, or decor for their wedding. She is a very honest, kind, and patient person and working with her has been such a delight. I've learned so much about the wedding planning process and it's been so fun. Planning a wedding in 6 months seems stressful but, honestly it's been a breeze. Teyanna had taken so much weight off my shoulders and made me feel comfortable entrusting my big day in her hands.

My husband and I went back and forth many times about hiring a DOC because I am a big planner and we also had a venue coordinator, but wow. Hiring Allison was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Allison made our day go by without a hitch and was fantastic to work with at such a fair price. She helped ease my mind and was an advocate for our needs. She is intentional, professional, and somehow a mind-reader when it came to handling requests even before we communicated them! If you are unsure about hiring Allison as your DOC, please please do it! We are so thankful for her services.

I'm Charissa owner & lead planner. My door mat says it best, 'running on coffee, wine, and the dogs time', but seriously I start every intro call with the disclaimer that you may hear the barking, snoring or a squeaky toy in the background. I'm the twenty-something-year-old that's gone from throwing "Weddings" in her neighbor's driveway, to throwing them in some pretty bomb venues. So I guess you can say I've been doing this a while. Seriously though with over 8 (official) years of experience in weddings and corporate events, this isn't my first rodeo. Weddings are sort of my thing!

Awarded Best of Zola
It is hard to put into words the tremendous gratitude I feel for Christina and her team with Lovelace Designs. We had our wedding at the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, MA – a non-conventional space that very rarely holds weddings. There were countless unique aspects of this space we had to consider while planning the event, and it is no exaggeration that Christina executed everything perfectly. In addition to her amazing skills as an event coordinator, she is a kind and friendly person who supported me through all the unforeseen challenges associated with planning your wedding. Christina consistently went above and beyond what was contractually required. One example of this excellent service occurred when we were securing a pipe & drape vendor for our ceremony. Christina actually drove out to Holyoke MA to see the pipe and drape in person since this was a new vendor she had not previously worked with. I am so thankful she took that trip as we realized that vendor could not execute what we envisioned. After describing her concerns to me, she immediately presented me with a solution in the form of another vendor who was able to provide us with exactly what we needed for our space. This is truly just one example of the hundreds of occasions Christina’s customer service was far beyond what we could’ve expected. From the first phone call I had with Christina, I knew that she would be pleasant to work with and up for the challenge. As time went on, I developed a profound appreciation for both her fabulous taste and her special ability to help me take simple ideas and create a seamless theme and elegant design. She was so wonderful to work with, my grandmother hired her to assist with my bridal shower and my mother-in-law also hired her to coordinate the 170-person rehearsal dinner the night before our wedding! Over the past year, Lovelace Design became a beloved part of our celebrations and Christina became an extended member of our family. I look forward to using Christina again for future occasions and truly cannot express my gratitude for all her help, compassion, and skillset!

Kelley and team are truly angels! I was a covid bride who truly planned my wedding at least 5 times, changed the date 3x and a new venue and I could have not done this without Kelley and A la carte events! I had one vendor try to take advantage of my husband and I and asked for more money when rescheduling the date and Kelley quickly helped take care of the situation, she even found me a new spring trio who were phenomenal and very easy to work with! It rained on my wedding day and Kelley made sure everything ran perfectly even with the rain. All the behind the scenes work Kelley and team did the week leading up to my wedding was insane, I truly would have been so lost without her. I miss working with her even though at times changing my venue and dates were super stressful, I probably would have lost my mind if Kelley wasn’t there to guide me. She thought of things that didn’t even cross my mind and made everything truly perfect. People still rave about our wedding day and how amazing it all came together despite the weather. She’s the first vendor I always recommend, my husband and I still rave about how amazing Kelley was! We miss her so much and wish we could get married 82828x over but have her by our side! We love A La carte events, having a planner makes such a big difference and truly is noticeable if you have one or not. You will enjoy your special day stress free and I promise Kelley and team will make your vision come alive.

Beckerman House of Planning

Johnston, RI
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Essex, CT

As the owner and lead planner, I am driven by a deep sense of energy and focus that I bring to work every day. My clients become a part of the Beckerman family whom I wholeheartedly care for. My journey in event planning began 9 years ago after completing my undergraduate degree in event planning and hospitality management, along with a minor in business and law. Later, I earned a master's degree in business and project management, which has helped me to gain a comprehensive understanding of planning.

From the moment we enlisted Beckerman House of Planning back in the fall of 2021, Garbriella’s detailed management and meticulous planning truly set her apart. In addition to her event planning background she holds a Master of Business and Project Management which shows through in everything she touches. I instantly connected with Garbriella’s level-headed and calm approach. In the months and weeks leading up to the wedding, she flawlessly orchestrated every aspect, from finalizing vendor contracts to creating a comprehensive timeline. Gabriella was very organized and proactive to ensure every element aligned with our vision. I was very much a DIY bride in all aspects of design, vendor sourcing, stationary, tablescapes, and details. Leading up to the wedding, she was a fantastic sounding board and stragetic partner. She reviewed contracts to ensure the scope was covered and also reviewed and provided feedback on our overall budget allocations. During the event, she made the process smooth and enjoyable from working with my sister to bustle my dress, to relighting candles that had blown out, coordinating with the venue and vendors, to boxing and hand delivering our cake to the hotel…no detail was too small for Garbriella to think about. Garbriella was integral in making all of my DIY ideas and designs come to life. She meticulously set up all of our centerpieces and accents. After the wedding, Garbriella carefully packed up all of our items for us to bring home. Beckerman House of Planning not only executed the logistics seamlessly but also went above and beyond, offering thoughtful suggestions along the way that enhanced the overall experience and demonstrating a commitment that truly exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Beckerman House of Planning for coordination and/or planning needs for future couples!

Cose Bella started in the historical town of Warren, RI. We are a full and partial service wedding planning company, experienced in events of all sizes. We are with you the entire day of your important event, executing every planned detail with meticulous work ethic. Being a smaller business allows us the opportunity to be more present and personable, allowing us to to perfectly reflect who you are and what makes your love so special.

I don’t even know where to begin. I hired Rachel about a year out from my wedding. I was looking for a day of coordinator and to say she exceeded those expectations would be the understatement of the century. We had monthly check ins leading up to the wedding, with even more calls as the day got closer, to ensure everything was on track. Hands down the best decision my fiancé and I made in the wedding planning process. I am a type-A perfectionist, who is not easy to please, and Rachel eased all of my worries. Without the help of her and her amazing team, I’m not sure how I would have survived the planning process let alone, made sure everything was perfect on our wedding day. Rachel and her team ensured everything ran on time, contacted all vendors leading up to wedding, ran our rehearsal , set up all tables, flowers, candles, bars, gift tables, cigar bar, the list goes on and on. She truly was our wedding fairy godmother and a million thank you’s would never suffice in expressing my gratitude towards her and her incredible team.

While I offer planning services for all types of events, weddings are my absolute favorite. I love working with people. I love making them laugh. I love love and I love watching each event unfold. This is literally my dream job and I am so grateful that I get to work in this amazing industry.

Hiring Raquel was far and away the best wedding planning decision we made. We chose her month-of package for our October wedding after attending a wedding she coordinated in June and she seamlessly incorporated herself into our process as we finalized everything with all of our vendors and was instrumental in the weekend itself going off without a hitch. She served as a sounding board and expert opinion throughout the end stages of the planning process, took on the tasks that I was dreading handling myself (timeline creation, to name one!), and asked thoughtful questions that hadn't even occurred to me. If there was an issue, I felt confident going into the wedding day that Raquel would be able to resolve it, and she didn't disappoint! From alcohol snafus to the threat of rain, from picture-dirty shoes to an unraveling bowtie, she tackled it all without batting an eye so that we could enjoy our day. Our wedding wouldn't have been what it was without her and we'll always be grateful to her for helping make our dreams come true!

I said YES and fell in love with being a part of someone’s wedding day. It brings me joy and excitement doing the behind-the-scenes work that helps make your vision come to life.

When we set out to find a day-of coordinator for our wedding, we had a clear vision – someone who could bring our décor dreams to life and ensure we could relax and soak in every moment on our special day. Enter Evviva and the amazing Kat – our dream team in every sense! Kat's approach was spot-on during our lead-up calls. She delved deep into understanding us and our vision, asking thoughtful questions that reassured us we were in capable hands. Her communication skills and kindness extended to all our vendors, earning her accolades as the most organized day-of coordinator from our venue coordinator. On the big day, Kat and the Evviva team were nothing short of a dream. Upon arrival, they gracefully tackled a well-intentioned chaos caused by the venue team. My carefully organized décor boxes had turned into a bit of a mess, but the Evviva team quickly stepped in, fixing everything that didn't align with our vision. During the wedding, Kat was an ever-present positive force. Guests noticed her attentive care, ensuring everyone's needs were met. A standout moment was right before I walked down the aisle, with Kat offering a reassuring smile and a reminder to take a deep breath – a small gesture that encapsulates her positive and supportive presence. We can't express enough gratitude to the entire Evviva team for making our wedding the most perfect day. Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made, and we'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Hi! I'm Courtney -- the founder and lead planner of Crown Coordination. You could say I'm your not-so-average pineapple obsessed, wine loving, adventure seeking chaos coordinator. When I say that I literally get married for a living and absolutely love it -- I mean it!

Courtney was outstanding! From our very first meeting, even before we decided to book her, she was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. Once we did decide to move forward with her, she was an incredible resource. She recommended the majority of our vendors (who were all phenomenal in their own way), assisted with keeping tabs on our venue, and went above and beyond in supporting us through the myriad of details in planning our wedding. It's not exaggerating to say that we would have lost our minds without her keeping us on target. Although Courtney was already booked for another wedding on the day of, she was always available and ready to answer any questions that came up. We always felt fully supported, no matter how many weddings she was planning! On the day, we had Hillary, Courtney's second-in-command, there to run the show. She could not have been more amazing! If there were any hiccups, she handled them without our knowledge, and she made sure everything ran smoothly all day. We are so, so, so grateful to Crown Coordination for helping us create and execute the wedding of our dreams. The only downside now that our wedding is over is that we don't get to spend time with such incredible people!

Hiring the Hoppy Wife was one of the best decisions we made for our entire wedding! Prior to our wedding weekend Katie was communicative, detail oriented and personable in all of our meetings. Her experience in the industry was apparent and she brought up things that I would have otherwise looked over. Her support and services the weekend of our wedding were truly invaluable. Having her at our wedding allowed us to be as present as possible because we knew she had everything under control. Katie ensured everything ran smoothly, from the big events to the tiny details like folded napkins. We realized moments before our ceremony that we didn't know where our rings were and she ran around looking for them while somehow maintaining her calm demeanor. We were on the fence about hiring a coordinator and I'm so grateful that we hired Katie. If you want to make your wedding day as seamless and stress free as possible, hire the Hoppy Wife!

If we could give more than 5 stars we would! We absolutely LOVED Jessica and her team. One of the most important vendors you book after securing your venue, is your planner. Jessica was the best decision we made during the wedding planning process right from the very beginning. She helped us vet and book vendors, she gave us so many resources with all different FAQ's on seating charts, a fully written out timeline by month, an cute emergency kit on the day of the wedding and so SO much more. She truly brought our wedding day vision to life and never told us "no" when things weren't in budget, she would always say that she would "figure it out for us" and she ALWAYS DID! There were very random items (such as a green couch) that I had fallen in love with during the planning process and Jessica moved things around in the budget to ensure we got our green couch. She even put us in contact with a vendor she had worked with in the past to ensure we got a great deal on it. Anything we wanted, she made sure was all set for us on the wedding day. The timeline of the wedding day was so smooth and all of our other vendors was complimenting how organized everything was for them since Jessica reached out before the wedding to give them final “day of” details. My mom would not stop mentioning how she wants to get married again, just to have Jessica throw her a big party haha. I am so sad that the wedding planning process is over because I loved sending her random inspo pics from Pinterest and talking about how we could achieve the look for less money. She is the bargain QUEEN and is so extremely crafty. Jessica and her team created ALL of our signage with the beautiful boho theme that we wanted. From the "welcome sign" to the "signature drinks" sign, Jessica hand painted and dyed every single fabric we needed to match the theme. She was AMAZING!!! We will recommend her and the Pine Events Co team to every engaged couple we meet because without her our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was. 10 out of 10 recommend!!!

Stacey did full wedding planning for us and was a constant source of calm throughout our wedding process, answering every text and email with reassurance and positivity (and believe me, there were many!). She wanted to get to yes and thanks to her tireless work, our wedding weekend—which consisted of several events—went incredibly smoothly, allowing us to be entirely present and worry free. When we had trouble finding a wedding venue, Stacey knew where to turn and helped us secure the most beautiful space. We couldn't imagine our wedding taking place anywhere else. She also works with some of the most incredible vendors. We loved each and every one of them and it was all thanks to Stacey! We're so grateful to Stacey for her tireless work, ensuring our wedding wasn't just beautiful but tailored to our ideas and imbued with meaning.

DM Events planned our 200-person black tie wedding at Brooklyn Botanic Garden this fall. From the moment I first spoke to Dawn Goldsmith, I felt at ease. She is a true visionary and a powerhouse. Dawn kept not just me, but my husband, our families and our budget(!!), on track from our very first phone call to the end of the wedding night. She and her team are kind, thoughtful, sensitive to their clients’ preferences, and extremely responsive. Putting aside all of the variable twists and turns that came with the era of COVID-weddings (which were navigated with ease), Dawn designed and planned an absolutely picture perfect event that exceeded all expectations. She has impeccable taste and a way of articulating and evolving my vision better than I could. Her design-minded approach is something that was really important to me when selecting a planner – no detail too small! Regarding the day of, Dawn’s team is a well-oiled machine. If there were any hiccups (there weren’t), neither I nor my guests would have been any the wiser. It was smooth sailing. My family and I had guests approaching throughout the wedding, as well as a flood of texts and calls following the big day, saying things like “This is the nicest wedding I’ve ever been to” and “the quintessential New York City wedding”. Literally, the perfect day. Dawn Goldsmith is a total pro and a blessing to work with.

I just want to thank you for taking the time to read a bit more about me. I have been working in the wedding industry for over ten years and am fortunate to have built a strong network of vendors who are now some of my closest friends. I can admit, I am obsessed with love and weddings. My passion drives me to be by my clients side every step of the way. I truly am blessed to be trusted as part of my client's milestone moments. I want my clients to feel like I am their new best friend - someone they can count on, trust, and confide in.

I was on the fence on hiring a planner and let me just say, I am soooo thankful I chose to do so. Amy was amazing to work with and made my day so much easier as I did not have to worry about anything. We discussed where and how I wanted the decorations and she executed it so perfectly, it was exactly how I imagined. She even came in clutch multiple times with bobby pins when I decided I no longer wanted my front hair pieces out as well as double sided sticky patches to hold my lightweight memorial items down on the table as it was an outside event & rainy. I am so grateful for her taking so much stress off my shoulders!!
