Working with Erika O'Brien Events as our wedding planner was an absolute pleasure. From the very beginning, Erika's communication style was laid-back yet professional, and she demonstrated an incredibly organized approach to planning our special day. Her attention to detail was excellent, and she executed flawlessly without any ego, working tirelessly before, during, and after our wedding to ensure everything ran smoothly. Although we hired Erika for month-of coordination, for the 9 months leading up to the wedding she was in doing checkins and helping us as needed. She helped wrangle vendors, create a detailed schedule, and handle all the little details so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Erika's expertise and calming presence were invaluable, and we highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.

At Faithful Grounds Event Planning, our mission is to provide exceptional event planning services that are rooted in faith, trust, and attention to detail.

Our commitment to excellence and integrity ensures that every event is executed with the utmost care and professionalism. We believe that by putting our clients' needs first and relying on our faith, we can create events that are truly special and reflective of their unique vision.

Lauren ‘Lo’ Tangires was, without a doubt, the best decision we made when it came to our wedding. From the moment we started working together, she proved herself to be an absolute rock, someone I could lean on and trust throughout the entire planning process. Not only did she handle every detail with precision, but she also did so with such a calm and positive energy, which truly kept me grounded in what could have been a stressful time. Lo quickly became more than just our wedding planner – she became one of my closest friends. She was there for me through every high and low, and even during my crankiest moments, she never wavered in her support. She had this amazing way of making me feel at ease, constantly reassuring me that everything was under control, and that meant the world to me. No matter how many questions I threw her way or how many times I changed my mind, Lo was patient, organized, and always on top of everything. On the day of the wedding, Lo was nothing short of a superhero. It wasn’t a day without challenges – from the unpredictable weather to vendor hiccups – but I can honestly say it felt perfect because of how seamlessly Lo handled it all. She battled the rain, managed every little detail, and kept every single person in line. The fact that I was able to relax and truly enjoy the day was all thanks to her hard work and dedication. Lo has this incredible ability to make you feel like you’re the only bride she’s working with, and her attention to detail is unmatched. Her grace under pressure, her constant professionalism, and her genuine care for me as both a bride and a friend made my wedding experience beyond anything I could have imagined. There is no one I would trust more to be by your side on your big day. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond, who will make sure your wedding is everything you’ve ever dreamed of, and who will do it all with a smile – Lo is your person. I couldn’t have asked for a better planner, and I am endlessly grateful for everything she did for us.

She was very communicative and on point leading up to the day. She set up and organized everything exactly as I requested. Natalie and Hector were so sweet and accommodating. The content creation package was great and exactly what my husband and I wanted. Since we didn't want a videographer, the content creation was perfect for us- To capture the day and have small clips for memories without the expensive cost. The photo booth was so cute and our guests loved it. Very nice camera with video, boomerang, and photo options for the guests to select with a nice backdrop setup.

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.

Hi, I’m Allie! Raised in the beautiful Finger Lakes region of NY, I’ve been passionate about event planning for as long as I can remember. I got my start learning from my mom, an incredible event planner, and now, with over a decade of experience, I love helping couples create weddings that reflect their unique love stories. Whether you’re dreaming of an elegant, traditional wedding or something totally unique, I’m here to make the process stress-free and your day unforgettable. From big celebrations to intimate gatherings, my focus is on creativity, attention to detail, and a calm, supportive approach. Can't wait to connect!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Allie as our wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions we made for our big day! As a queer, interracial couple with a super diverse group of friends and family, we were nervous about finding someone who would respect and celebrate us, but Allie was exactly what we needed and more. From start to finish, she made sure we felt supported, seen, and, most importantly, stress-free. Allie stepped in two weeks before the wedding and immediately took over all the vendor communication, making sure everything was handled so we could just enjoy the process. She didn’t just manage logistics—she managed everything: family drama (ugh, lifesaver), unexpected changes due to Hurricane Milton, and even the fact that most of our bridal party couldn’t make it. Somehow, she filled in the gaps so seamlessly that we barely noticed anything was missing. What stood out the most was how personal she made the experience. She took the time to learn everyone’s names, stayed calm and chill no matter what, and listened to us when we were stressed, always reminding us to focus on each other. Allie kept the day running at our pace, gave us time to be together, and even made sure we looked great in all our photos. She coordinated everything down to the details we cared about most, like our private last dance and getting all the shots we wanted. She was laid-back yet professional, blending in perfectly with the vibe of our wedding while carrying out our vision flawlessly. Despite the hurricane and a 2-hour drive to get to us, Allie didn’t skip a beat, reworking things as needed and keeping everything on track. We genuinely had the most amazing day, and that was thanks to her. If you want a coordinator who will go above and beyond to make you feel at ease, ensure everything runs smoothly, and let you actually enjoy your wedding day, Allie is 100% the one. So, so worth the investment!!! Thank you, Allie, for giving us a day we’ll cherish forever!

Laci was abundantly more than just a day-of-coordinator. For the five months before our wedding, Laci was hands-on with each planning element: food, decor, vendors, the venue, seating arrangements, and beyond! We especially loved Laci’s no-contact policy for the last month of planning. Laci became the primary point of contact for all our vendors, allowing us to fully experience and enjoy the weeks leading up to our wedding.

There are absolutely no words to describe how AMAZING, PHENOMENAL, PROFESSIONAL, and CREATIVE Teresa and Zack are with Justice Designs. Working with them was by far the BEST part of our wedding planning, and they executed the day with precision, grace, flexibility, and the utmost care for us and our friends and family. Teresa designed everything for our wedding, coordinated everything with our vendors, and held multiple meetings with us to make sure the details were perfect. Teresa and Zack truly went above and beyond for us, and we will forever be grateful for them and their work. I cannot recommend them highly enough. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would.

We are Mya + Hector, owners of Elope to Orlando, Florida notaries, experienced Officiants, certified wedding planners, published professional photographers, and parents to four daughters and two dogs. We started a wedding planning company in 2004 under a different name. Back then most of our weddings took place on the beach, Mya was the only Officiant and Hector was the only photographer. A few years ago we sold our beach wedding company, decided to stay in the Orlando area, and that's how Elope to Orlando was born.

I am a Wedding Officiant and working with Elope to Orlando has always been an amazing experience. They have always been very communicative and professional and I’ve never had a bad experience interacting with them. As an officiant I would highly recommend them!! I’ve seen how they interact with couples and I know that you can always trust them to make them feel special and listened to.

I went with Prestige Planning for my wedding planner because of the ease of use. I met with my certified wedding planner before I booked and she was amazing and explained the whole process. I knew I could plan my own wedding but I’m not a pro at all so I knew I would need a lot of help. I didn’t want to spend the money on a full wedding planner so going this route was absolutely perfect. They were with me every step of the way. I especially liked the SOS calls they give because I needed them to assist with a vendor I was having an issue with. I knew I was going to need help with logistics and stuff on the actual day of my wedding because I wouldn’t have time to do so, so I added the coordination add on to my package. So I got my wedding planned with major help from an actual certified planner and coordination for my wedding day for less than others are charging for just coordination. Just go for it. You will not be disappointed at all! They really went above and beyond and did more for me than what they had outlined they would do. I got more than my money worth.

My journey into wedding planning began unexpectedly while organizing my own wedding. As I hit the familiar "hurry up and wait" stage, I found myself offering advice to other brides navigating the same process. Helping them with vendor selections and timelines was fulfilling, and I realized this was more than just a hobby it was a passion. With my fiancé’s support, I took the leap and launched my wedding planning business before my own wedding day. The thrill of helping couples create their dream weddings is what drives me, and I can’t wait to craft unforgettable experiences for my clients.

Serendipity Wedding Planning & Graphic Design was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the very first phone call, they were prompt in their communication and always easy to get in touch with, which was so helpful during the busy wedding planning process. Their work was truly amazing - they created beautiful and unique pieces for our wedding, including helping to make some of the table decor since our wedding was DIY. The quality of their design and execution was top-notch, and we were thrilled with how everything turned out. I would highly recommend Serendipity to any couple looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your special day perfect.

I am Terri Gilbreath owner and lead planner. I have been working in the wedding industry for over 21 years now. I love a great party and feel your event should reflect your style and personality. We work together to combine the best of our experience with what you want. Our company has become a leader in building from the ground up events (Basically building an event space in the middle of nowhere or home/estate based.)

We interviewed a few full service wedding planners and wasn’t getting that excited & trusting feeling in my gut. I recalled a wedding I attended many years before that always stood out as an event with no complaints as a guest and asked my friend, who was her planner at that time. Terri was part of that team and now leading her own business. I reached out to set up an interview which organically turned into a coffee get together with laughs, ideas and a connection which felt right in my gut! Over a long engagement, Terri provided clear communication, innovative ideas, great vendors, kept us on track and guided us while being realistic! No surprises or hidden issues and truly fun! She created a secure environment through every planning stage and entire wedding weekend as my feince had never been too or part of an event, let alone a wedding. This was huge for us and showed her genuine heart and soul! We never knew of any hiccups with vendors, everything was organized, seamless and fun! 1.5 years after wedding weekend we still have friends and family talk about an amazing weekend! That’s due to Terri and her team!
