Awarded Best of Zola
Melissa was my main point of contact leading up to my wedding day. She was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, organized, and professional. She made me feel so much less stressed because I knew I could rely on her to make sure everything was on track. Our venue was also difficult to communicate with so Melissa took over all communications with them so I didn't have to deal with the stress. On my wedding day, both Melissa and Deliece were there to coordinate the day. They had an incredibly detailed and organized day-of schedule (that they shared with our families and entire bridal party prior to our wedding too!), and there were zero issues that came up on the day that I was aware of because Melissa and Deliece made sure that everything ran smoothly and that me and my husband felt stress-free and could enjoy our wedding day. I'm a very type A person and still found a wedding planner incredibly useful. They help you with every single detail and our regular check-in calls were so helpful. If you're questioning whether you should hire Dhalia, you shouldn't- they're truly the best in the business and made my wedding day the best day of my life! I highly recommend Dhalia as a wedding planner!

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.

It was important for her to build a friendship first, learn about us then dive into everything that we needed and THEN some. Her experience within the event and wedding planning industry shows immediately - her connections to vendors, advice, ideas and knowledge of how a successful day looks is a huge part of what makes her team so powerful - not to mention the extremely bubbly, funny and positive energy she brings to every conversation and meeting. To top it all off, the morning and afternoon of our wedding day was a straight monsoon - Courtney and her team did not blink, jumped into GO mode and turned our day, venue, timeline and energy around flawlessly.

She ensured every detail was covered and that every vendor had the same itinerary and made the entire weekend run smoothly. We highly recommend A Lively Event and we hope that we get to work with Katie again next year!!

Cathy founded Cathy's Elegant Events in 2010. Although she was born in NYC, her family moved to the Catskill Mountains at a young age, but they maintained a home in Brooklyn. This allowed her to have a unique upbringing in both Upstate New York and Brooklyn, where many of her relatives still reside. Cathy holds a degree in Mathematics and Statistics.

It was so fun getting to spend time with her and getting to know her during this process. Cathy made every little detail of our fairytale wedding come true. She was terrific during the planning process. When I wanted to try to handle projects myself, she stepped back and let me handle them, but was always there if I needed advice or help with anything. When I needed her to be more involved and hands on, I felt completely confident and comfortable letting her take things in the direction that she felt was best. She was always quick to answer emails and talk on the phone to hash out big picture items or last minute details. The week leading up to the wedding Cathy was AMAZING. We spent almost 2 hours on the phone making sure every last detail was taken care of and exactly the way I envisioned it. She ran our ceremony in the pouring rain and was always cheerful and positive, she was there for me for moral support all afternoon while I was getting ready, she helped setup the barn and ceremony beautifully and made sure every detail was in order. During the ceremony and reception, she made sure that my husband and I were taken care of the entire evening. Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish and Cathy's expertise, guidance and help played such a huge part in the success of our wedding day. Thank you Cathy!! Tim and I are so grateful for all the hardwork and love you put into making our day great.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I truly thought that we could handle the wedding planning ourselves, but as we got to the final stretch, we realized we needed some help. You will see this for all of the reviews for Musa, and I am here to shout it from the rooftops - our wedding could not have happened without the help of Andi, Jen and the whole Musa team. We hired them for the final three months of the wedding and it was the best decision we made in that stage of the process. In addition to handling all vendor communication, timeline design and execution and day-of coordination, Andi made herself available for any/all questions, calls, and sounding board needs and moments with me, my husband and my mom. She brought to the process immense patience, thoughtfulness, kindness, and professionalism. Day-of, her work and the work of her co-team member, Jen, allowed all of us to really just take in the day and stay as present and grounded as possible. At one point, me and my bridal party went to get into our car to go the venue, and the car didn't start. Like a superhero, Jen pulled up into the driveway at that exact moment, and she brought us all up to the venue. Above and beyond the call of duty. This duo was a gift to my day, and I will forever be grateful for their talent and their support.

Brittany and her team were an absolute dream to work with. She was one of our most proffesional and detailed oriented vendors. After our initial call, Brittany sent over a gorgeous and detailed mock up. Her communication leading up to our Wedding (we hired Wylde Rose for Styling for our Hindu Ceremony) was excellent, checking in with us to see if we needed anything - which was a breath of fresh air chasing around most vendors. The team pulled out ALL stops to make our Wedding Rentals and styling look gorgeous. Our planner called Brittany with concerns from about the stage we had delivered and Brittany and team were ON IT to make everything gorgeous and execute our vision flawlessly! They had great ideas on the spot to help the concerns. I would reccomend Wylde Rose in a heartbeat to all Hudson Valley Brides that are looking for flawless details and a vendor you can put all your trust in.

While planning events as a side hustle for over a decade, I have also been a nonprofit event coordinator, farmer, and music festival planner. My background gives me a unique perspective on each wedding I plan. Sustainability, Inclusivity and Couple Advocacy are extremely important to me. Some fun facts: Leo with Taurus Moon and Libra Rising, ENFP, a Peacemaker, and I love a good personality quiz. I'm a sucker for fashion, and like to joke that ! can smell a good consignment/vintage shop. I had a wedding Pinterest 8 years before I even met my husband, and I will do anything in my power to give you the wedding you want.

Kris was wonderful to work with start to finish. Based off the size of our families, we were initially struggling with the daunting task of navigating a large scale wedding while still making sure our number one priority of efficiency, seamlessness, and intentionality were maintained. We expressed these concerns to Kris early on and were met with understanding and confident guidance towards practical solutions. Kris knows the Hudson Valley very well. Working with someone who lives here and knows this areawas very important. Seeing Kris spring into action day of the wedding was wonderful. She was calm and collected but simultaneously leading the charge and making everything happen - we had not a worry in the world for the whole day and we are very thankful for that.

Cassie & Chelsea have been in the wedding industry for a combined 25+ years and know the ins and outs of all things weddings! We have worked to build long lasting and strong vendor relationships to ensure seamless and flawless events.

We wanted an “introvert corner” for our wedding, and hired Wild Fern for the lounge, glass puzzle table, and rug. Everything was beautiful and choreographed perfectly with our florist. We hardly had a moment during the reception where someone wasn’t working on the puzzle or relaxing in the lounge. A huge hit with our guests and us.

Based in the Pocono Mountains, We Do Events offers custom wedding planning in the Hudson Valley, Poconos, and Catskills. Wherever you dream of saying “I do,” we’ll make sure your event is not just picturesque, it’s planned — and pulled off — to perfection. When our founder, Jilian Becker, was planning her own destination wedding in the Poconos back in 2016, she noticed a gap in the wedding industry in this pocket of the northeast. So, she decided to fill it. Now a top-rated, award-winning company, We Do Events serves couples in the Hudson Valley, Catskills, and Poconos region. We’re like the wedding guide we wish we’d had — and now you do.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our work with Jilian began a year or so before the wedding, and we could have never predicted the level of help she would give us in getting ready for the day. From her checklists, to check-in emails and Zoom calls, she was always able to make great recommendations about vendors and timelines, and she would do research for us as well. She even put together a mood board that helped us pick out florals and bridal party looks. She is helpful, supportive, and fun... We look at it as some of the best money we spent on the process. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner, and although she wasn't our day-of coordinator (as our coordinator was employed through the venue), we're sure she would have been great at that as well.
