Carolyn made it a piece of cake to plan our wedding. My wife and I live in California and even with time zone differences and being unable to come visit the venue until the event, Carolyn made it simple with quick and clear communication. She made it all come together without feeling like a ton of effort and the day-of coordination was the best of all. We were "along for the ride" on wedding day and had an awesome time because we were free to focus on what mattered the most to us: our friends and family! Carolyn's behind-the-scenes efforts paid off wonderfully and I'd recommend her services to anyone in a similar situation.

We were married on 11/3 at Greenpoint Loft in Brooklyn and the evening was absolute magic thanks to the support of our fabulous coordinator, Natalie! Our venue was a totally raw space, which meant a LOT of vendor coordination DIY elements random touches that were important to me (the bride). We booked Gthr's month of coordination package, which was excellent. I was impressed that they reached out in advance of the month of to collect comprehensive onboarding info and once our meetings with Natalie kicked off, it felt like she was already in the know and ready to go. Natalie kept us reassured every step of the way and went above and beyond for us to be a buffer with some challenging personalities, make sure that the unique things we wanted to do were possible, and keep us on schedule. We had her join us for our rehearsal dinner as well, which was a great way to have an in-person meeting pre-wedding and connect her with our (rather large) wedding party so everything could run smoothly on the wedding day. We truly couldn't have pulled it off without her. A big, heartfelt thank you to Natalie & Gthr - we can't recommend them enough!!!

If you’re thinking “should I hire Blair?”, the answer is yes! Blair and her team are absolutely fantastic! My husband and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She was incredibly organized, kind, knowledgeable, responsive, and thoughtful about the details of our wedding. We appreciated her insights into vendors and she provided us with great options for every vendor we needed. If we wanted more options, she gave us more options. She was very helpful on calls and provided us with questions for vendors so that we could plan our wedding with as little stress as possible. Blair was always calm and reassuring. She gave us the confidence to make tough decisions. We thought that Blair really understood what was important to us and got our vision for our wedding. She helped us make our dreams a reality at every turn. The day of went perfectly, and it was great that we knew Blair was there to handle all the details. Our family and bridal party got to spend time with us while the ideal professionals made sure it all went smoothly. We also attended a friend’s wedding that Blair planned, and that wedding was amazing as well! Our family were thrilled and still bring up how much they loved Blair. In short, we were so lucky that Blair was a huge part of our day! Thank you, Blair!

Rebecca was an incredible Officiant! From the get-go, she was a great resource for us and was so helpful in walking us through the logistics of a legal ceremony (timeline, marriage license requirements, etc). She came with so many cool ideas and the script she crafted–absolutely perfect. Working with her was easy, she was receptive to feedback and so so respectful of what we were wanting our ceremony to reflect. We had so many of our guests tell us how beautiful and special to us the ceremony felt. Thank you so much Rebecca!!

Working with Jokay was such a blessing! Jokay made planning our wedding so seamless. The other day I was discussing with my wife and we were just like wait a minute, "we actually pulled off a wedding within 3 months"! She was like Jokay made it easy. Jokay stayed and worked exactly with our budget, connected us with the perfect vendors, always available to discuss the plans, she was very organized and detailed, having every aspect of the event/planning on a spread sheet. One big part for me was the way she walked us through the entire event during the planning, such that we could picture the wedding day. It was exactly the way we envisaged and more! Thank you Jokay!

Michelle is amazing. I do not know how she is a mom, teacher and wedding coordinator all in one small package of energy! She was extremely respectful not asking for details that she did not need explanations for. She made sure all the vendors had a plan. She color coded our information and created a beautiful day of timeline. We had a medical emergency at the wedding and Michelle even offered to go to the hospital to make sure we would get updates (we ended up sending a family member instead). She also snuck some great photos!

Lindsay not only plans weddings for our Simply Elegant couples but also trains our entire team of planners to ensure that every Simply Elegant wedding is flawless and our client's vision is fulfilled.

Our coordinator, Hanh, was absolutely marvelous! She was attentive, fun, and made us feel so taken care of. We used SEG for their day-of coordinator services, but Hanh made it feel like so much more. I would highly recommend her! The deducted star was due to some communication difficulties we had with SEG (not Hanh!). We had a coordinator originally assigned to us, but when one of our vendors couldn't get a hold of our original coordinator, we reached out to SEG and found out that coordinator was no longer with SEG. I wish SEG had been proactive in letting us know when our coordinator left; even though we only had day-of services, our vendors still needed our contact from SEG in the months before the wedding.

Rojin is the best, we were so lucky to have her help with planning our wedding in July 2022. She went above and beyond to help us have our dream wedding. Anything we asked for, she did a great search to find the best options. Anytime we were stressed out about anything, we just called her right away and she always made us calm by finding a solution! She was kinda our therapist. So I had absolutely nothing to stress about just because of her. Every little detail and every step of the way, she will take care of it better than I can imagine it. She was very organized, detail-oriented, professional, calm, and most-importantly she listened and cared. For anyone who is on the fence about hiring Rojin, do it. You will not regret it.
