Beckerman House of Planning 

5.0

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Dorchester, MA

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. Brides - please give yourself the gift of peace of mind on your big day and book Cose Bella. Thank you Rachel & Cose Bella - we love you!

Hey there! I’m Casey, photographer, designer & lover of nature. My most important roles are Momma to two beautiful little girls (Keira & Kyleigh) and wife to my handsome hubby of 15 years. We live in Kittery, Maine and enjoy spending our free time at our camp snowmobiling, hiking, kayaking and enjoying time by the lake as a family. As a self-taught Maine wedding photographer I love what I do. I love seeing the beauty in life’s special moments and turning it into art. I love the amazing energy of a wedding day and playing a special role in documenting forever memories.

Like many weddings in 2020, our original wedding plans were out the window. When we decided to elope instead of a formal wedding, Casey was very accommodating and worked with us as plans changed. She is very organized, professional and quick to respond. Communication was never an issue as we kept in touch throughout the entire planning process. Casey is one of the main reasons our special day went as smoothly as it did, she was such a huge help. We originally chose Casey Durgin Photography because I really loved her photography style. When we received our wedding album, I was far from disappointed. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the pictures. They were more beautiful than we imagined. Casey is so talented and has great eye for the perfect shot. Casey Durgin Photography does an amazing job and I look forward to working with her again.

My photography career started 7 years ago in the editorial world - shooting for big brands like Sephora, Miller Coors, T-Mobile, and Wanderlust.

Being surrounded by happiness and love on such a meaningful day is SO fulfilling and inspiring to me. I absolutely adore my job, and I’m so freakin’ grateful to have the honor of documenting such a special occasion for you.

I cannot recommend Jules highly enough. As a wedding planner, I tend to be fairly critical when it comes to vendors and Jules stands head and shoulders above them. We first worked together when she photographed my brother's wedding. From the outset, Jules was incredibly prompt with her communication and made us feel like the wedding was just as important to her as it was to us. Her enthusiasm was heartfelt and genuine and made us feel that this very personal process was in wonderful hands. Her photos speak for themselves, but she will also truly exceed your expectations when it comes to communication and her ability to make everyone feel at ease. If you are considering working with Jules, don't think twice. Hiring her to photograph your wedding will be one of the best decisions you make!

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

She quickly puts her clients at ease and her excitement and enthusiasm makes photos painless and so enjoyable and she consistently delivers beautiful work to her clients.

Nikki is the BEST! It was so easy to start working with her, and I did her pre-wedding facial package for brides that she offers which was great. My trial was great, and I was happy to pull up photos/videos of her prior work that definitely helped in guiding our convo before she got to work on my look. It goes without saying, but she is sooo talented as a MUA. In all of my appointments with her I NEVER felt like she was rushing--she really takes her time which is so appreciated. On the day of the wedding I offered some thoughts on minor adjustments I wanted from the trial, and she applied them EXACTLY. All of my bridesmaids (a good amount of which don't normally get makeup done) were obsessed with their makeup, and even after dancing through the whole night it still looked great. I can't recommend working with Nikki enough!!!

I really appreciated the way they modeled poses for us to try and they way they laughed with us through the afternoon. They were just so much fun to spend time with! They took time to get to know us as a couple and then captured moments that reflected the love that Jonathan and I have for one another in the most beautiful way.

We capture the happiest moments of best friends celebrating the beginning of their new life together with friends and family on Cape Cod and the Islands who value the memories that only a wedding film can create for them.

Cindy and Sean of Harborview Studios were the videographers for our wedding in August of 2020 on Cape Cod, and I can’t say enough good things about them! Our original wedding plan was a 200+ person wedding at the Dennis Inn. By the end of April 2020, my stomach was in knots, unsure of how we should alter our plans. Cindy and Sean were the first vendors to proactively reach out to us, and it made such a world of difference to know that they were in our corner. Cindy and Sean have been flexible and responsive to our needs through the entire process. Once we realized we would have a small ceremony on our original date and reschedule the reception to 2021, we originally planned to have Cindy and Sean film the micro-wedding for only two hours. But as our plans developed, we realized we wanted to do as many of the special wedding moments as possible in August, and so we extended the time that Cindy and Sean would be there and also what we requested from them following the wedding. During the wedding, we hardly noticed that Cindy and Sean were there. They are so professional and just let you do your thing. They were very communicative about delivery timelines for our requested films, and when we received the final products in the fall, we were totally blown away! It has been wonderful to share the full ceremony edit with extended family and friends who weren’t able to attend in person. And the highlight reel is amazing - we will treasure it for years to come. My family members have already re-watched them dozens of times! Cindy and Sean are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and beyond talented. They were just the vendors we needed to navigate planning (and re-planning) a wedding in the middle of a pandemic, and we are looking forward to working with them again this August, for our anniversary party.

Hello future brides! Congratulations on your engagement! My name is Krystal Dent, I have been in the beauty industry for 11 years now. My goal is to provide my clients with a positive and relaxing beauty experience. Whether you want a soft or glam look, you can expect the utmost professionalism and creative techniques to bring your special day vision to life!

Krystal was a joy to work with all the way up to our hug goodbye in my dress on the big day. I picked her very carefully and loved her social media. We did one trial and afterward I looked beautiful, but it wasn't exactly what I wanted for the big day. A WORD OF ADVICE If you book your trial too soon you will most likely change your mind. Krystal was so accommodating and we did a second trial closer to the big day. I was so happy to be able to do this. On the actual day I loved how I looked and have her to thank for that. She has such a kind nature and makes it easy. Thank you Krystal!

Pocket Change was the perfect pick for my in-laws' 50th wedding anniversary party, and I'd highly recommend them for any wedding or big event requiring a band! Dave, the primary contact, is incredible and did a great job emceeing the event, speaking gracefully, carefully keeping the time to keep things on track, and accommodating just the vibe we hoped for with the music. They also learned a very special song especially for my in-laws. Dave and band provide the perfect balance of professionalism and fun. Whether you're looking for light jazz or an all out dance party, Pocket Change is the BEST! Don't hesitate, definitely book them. You won't be disappointed.
