K.M.Lyon Events

  • Serves Ithaca, NY

Why weddings? Why events? Well, love, of course. I am a hopeless romantic who has a knack for theatre and a love for organization. So....voila! Wedding planner. I am the stage manager to your special day and I do it because I absolutely love it. I love love. I love family time and the important connections that are the fabric of our very being and certainly our important life moments.

I was so overwhelmed and stressed in the final months leading up to our wedding. After our initial consultation with Kayla, I felt like I could finally breathe. She just "got" me, and knew exactly what was on my mind before I even said it. I felt so reassured knowing that she was helping to track the millions of little details for our big day. From calls leading up to our wedding, to site visits and in-person meetings, I left each time a little lighter knowing that she had our back. I can't even begin to thank her for how above and beyond she went on our wedding weekend. I know there were a million fires she put out that I thankfully never even knew about. That's what working with Kayla meant for us - peace of mind and the ability to REALLY be present and take in our wedding day. It was truly worth it to work with such a professional and I wish I could go back in time and have hired her sooner!

Teyanna and Essence of Flair was truly an answer to prayer. I had a vision of what I wanted for my wedding day and she executed it perfectly. From our first meeting, she listened attentively and made sure she understood the assignment. Teyanna never tried to push her own agenda, what I wanted was always top priority. She was patient and also provided insight that helped me not only in the decor of my venue but in other areas of my wedding. Teyana was absolutely amazing. My wedding ceremony and reception were perfectly decorated and they exceeded my expectations. When I walked into the ceremony and reception area I said this is what I wanted. Teyanna held my hand through the process. If there were negative things happening, I did not know because Teyana was so in control and positive. I got so many compliments on the decor. All I can say is Essence of Flair understood my vision and followed through. Teyanna went above and beyond. I would recommend her and Essence of Flair to anyone that is planning a wedding or any special event.

WOW! I can not say enough on how appreciative I am of Bari and Antonia. A month before my wedding I realized I desperately needed Day of Coordinators. Bari and Antonia were so responsive and assuring. They took on my wedding with such grace. No request of mine was too much. They travelled all the way to Jersey City from Philly and were so accomodating. They spent time with all our vendors on the day of the wedding, helping set up with the florist and some of my DIY decor. They made sure my ceremony procession ran smoothly. They made sure all the little details were taken care of. The night of my wedding, the only thought I had was to have a good time, and thats because Bari and Antonia did the rest. I couldn't recommend them more if you need help on your wedding day.

I'm Charissa owner & lead planner. My doormat says it best, 'running on coffee, wine, and the dog's 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 amazing spaces. With over a decade of experience in weddings and corporate events, this isn't my first rodeo. Weddings are sort of my thing!

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Charissa and her team if you're looking for a wedding coordinator/planner! She is so professional, organized, and just the nicest person ever. We had so many questions and worries but Charissa helped us feel at ease throughout it all. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND on the day of the wedding... literally hauling extra chairs with her throughout the botanic gardens so we could get our photographs!! LOL! You can just tell how much she cares about her clients and we so appreciated the effort. We also had Kevin on her team set-up the decor at the venue and they did an amazing job -- we were blown away when we arrived! We got tons of compliments from our guests at how lovely the entire wedding was and I know we could not have pulled it off without Charissa / Simply Loved Weddings!!

Christina was my ride or die during the last 6 weeks of our wedding planning. I don’t think I would have been able to enjoy my day as much as I did without her. She was there thinking of all of the last minute details and letting me enjoy the moment and the company of everyone in town without any worries. I didn’t lift a finger or touch my phone the day of my wedding she had it all covered. Had simple ideas to make my morning of getting ready smooth and helped me save money on day of food! She did everything and I will never reflect on our wedding day without thinking about her. Thank you!!! And if you are thinking about booking her just do it!

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!

We connected 4.5 months out from our wedding - after our original venue fell through and we had to find a new one - Courtney showed up eager, confident, excited and supportive. 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. Crown Coordination are the people you want by your side for anything that could unexpectedly pop up! We will always be thankful for their guidance, support and incredible partnership. This is your sign to call Crown Coordination ASAP!

I adored the vendors she connected me with and had a phenomenal working experience with my onsite team. Leah and Margette navigated a truly heartbreaking turn of events when my grandmother passed on my wedding day. The care and expertise they showed that day will always stay with me and I will always associate the two of them with the joy I was able to feel on a very overwhelming day. I could not speak more highly of my planning crew and my day of crew. Thank you, Wedding Planning Plus, and a special shout to Leah, for making my wedding day a truly unforgettable event.

Awarded Best of Zola
My partner and I began our journey with Syrie as our wedding planner back in the fall of 2020, and we can honestly say it was one of the best decisions we've ever made. We started with a selected venue but little else. Syrie, with her organized approach and expertise, transformed our vague ideas into a stunning wedding reality. She took our abstract descriptions and envisioned a day that was far beyond what we thought we wanted – it was what we dreamed of. Despite our extended planning cycle, Syrie was a constant presence, always checking in to ensure that our preparations were on track. As a couple living in New York City, we appreciated having local "boots on the ground" throughout the planning process. Her deep connections within the Buffalo wedding industry became priceless when our original our venue, Hotel Henry, unexpectedly shut down. Syrie saw the writing on the wall weeks before their fall and organized tours of alternative venues – a task outside our agreed-upon package. We ended up choosing The Admiral Room, a venue we hadn't initially considered, but it turned out to be a gem. Its grandeur resonated with us perfectly – yet another testament to Syrie's understanding of our tastes and preferences. Syrie's expertise also shone when it came to vendor selection. She provided a plethora of options for each service, letting us evaluate different styles and approaches. Each vendor we chose delivered impeccable service, with a special shout-out to Tori Vee who created an extraordinary musical ambiance. Syrie is an impressive organizational powerhouse. Having her as our planner allowed us to focus on savoring every moment of our special day. Her efficient staff resolved a minor hiccup with a vendor within half an hour – we barely noticed it had happened. Our experience with Syrie was nothing short of magnificent. She guided us through a daunting process with grace, expertise, and foresight. Syrie not only saved us from potential disaster but helped create a day that was even more beautiful than we could have imagined. We enthusiastically recommend Syrie.

Outside of deciding to marry my wife, choosing Dear September Events (DSE) for our special day was one of the best decisions we have ever made! We worked directly with DeAnne and Sarah, who were so kind and patient. Despite our lack of specific direction, they took charge and delivered beyond our expectations. DeAnne understood our vision, even when we ourselves were not entirely sure what that vision was. She did not even bat an eye when we u-turned and decided an international destination wedding was the dream. We leaned on DeAnne heavily throughout the planning process, and she seamlessly brought everything together. Even with vendors in another country, nothing slipped by her! DeAnne was organized, understanding, and knowledgeable. She was always responsive and addressed any concerns we had, making the entire experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. She supported and advocated for us, even after the celebrations were over when some details needed to be resolved with a vendor. Working with her, it was clear that DeAnne has a real passion for her work and loves what she does!  Sarah was with us in person for day of coordination. She handled our group well and everything flowed flawlessly. We are sure there were many things going on behind the scenes that we are not even aware of, which allowed us to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the celebration knowing that she had everything handled. It was the small details that made having DSE so special. DeAnne checked in with us the whole time we were abroad and sent the sweetest messages. Sarah helped manage our families, corral our wedding parties, and made sure we were taken care of. It was incredibly warm on our wedding day, and Sarah made sure we hydrated and hid us in the shade every chance she got. She was equipped with napkins and blotting sheets, which were definitely needed!  We wholeheartedly recommend DSE to anyone looking for a dedicated, talented, and passionate wedding planning team! You definitely want DeAnne and Sarah on your side for your wedding process. We are forever grateful to DeAnne and Sarah for making our vision come to life and creating the most perfect wedding celebration!  Lots of love, Q M

Multiplicity Wedding & Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first conversation, their communication was fast, responsive, and incredibly effective in bringing our vision to life. Lynn and her team were thorough, creative, and delivered a truly one-of-a-kind experience that exceeded our expectations. Lynn went above and beyond to bring every detail I had imagined to life, and I could not be happier with the way every aspect came together to make our wedding day picture perfect.

I’m a Wedding Planning&Coordination Liaison, an eternally creative, sentimental woman with tremendous hustle & heart. My mission: be there w/ friendly guidance as you embark on this milestone, to host the most joyous occasion, treating your family/friends like my own honored guests & to help you align everything so your event truly shines! I was inspired to become a day-of coordinator after planning/executing my own wedding in 2016. I thought I had all the dots connected w everything ready to rock, but it became overwhelming come the Big Day. Though I can’t turn back time, I can move forward to be there for others when they need me the most.

Had the pleasure of working with Jocelyn at Ainsworth House and Gardens in Oregon City. She puts so much love and effort into every wedding. She pays attention to names, details and even does floral! I highly recommend her if you're looking for someone to support you as she is a genuine loving human being. She aims to help make all wedding days truly spectacular and go off without a hitch.

Michelle was absolutely incredible from beginning to end. Coming from Georgia, we decided to elope in Miami on a whim, and Michelle made our dream a reality with ease. Despite the spontaneity of our decision, Michelle responded promptly and understood our desire for a private, relaxed, and fun beach wedding on Cinco de Mayo. She effortlessly handled every detail, allowing us to simply show up and enjoy the moment. Despite some last-minute travel hiccups causing stress, Michelle's warm welcome and impeccable ceremony turned our vibe around completely. Her attention to detail brought our vision to life, and we're immensely grateful for her hard work and dedication, which made it possible for us to fully immerse ourselves in the moment. Without hesitation, we wholeheartedly recommend Michelle!

Weddings have always been a passion of mine since I was a little girl. I finally decided to do it full-time after college and it was the best decision.

I give my brides a lot of attention and help bring their visions to life!

Stacy was amazing and so helpful! We had her for Day Of Coordination, but months leading up to our wedding she was available to answer any questions, and one month before she was consistent with having weekly meetings to make sure we were on the same page with everything, and that things would go smoothly. My husband and I had an amazing wedding day and I know Stacy’s behind-the-scenes magic is what helped immensely!! Everything turned out perfect and just how I thought in this my head, and I’m particular with these type of things, but Stacy was great and executed amazingly!!

Meagan is everything you’d expect a travel agent to be AND MORE. The organization, the promptness, the expertise she has in all things travel related provides a huge sense of comfort and ease when planning a trip. My husband and I experienced a hiccup during our honeymoon and Meagan leapt into action to assist even with the time change being 5 hours ahead of EST which led to a VERY early morning for her to help troubleshoot. We had a solution by the next day and were situated in a new hotel very quickly all thanks to Meagan. All of the excursions she helped plan for us went incredibly smoothly. I have, and will continue to recommend Meagan to everyone I know!

Audrei from Luxury Affairs was so helpful for our Day of Coordination on our wedding. She was flexible, communicative, and seemed to be everywhere we needed her to be! Audrei is very efficient and was able to be the eyes and ears that I couldn't be day of. She kept the whole day running smoothly and we are so appreciative! Thanks Audrei for making our wedding day perfect.

Kenny and her team were so helpful! They are professional, organized, kind and went above and beyond for us. We did day of coordination and Kenny jumped in about a month out, taking care of all vendor communications and creating a timeline for us. She kept everything running smoothly the morning of the wedding and made sure everything and everyone were where they needed to be. She set up the reception decor exactly as I had envisioned it. Also kept our timeline on track during the reception. Truly can’t imagine how we would’ve made it through the day without her!
