We loved working with Forevermore Weddings! Lelia was absolutely incredible to work with as our wedding coordinator. She was extremely organized, proactive, and communicative. Leading up to the wedding, Lelia emailed and met with several of our vendors to ensure everyone was on the same page. Lelia also put together a timeline for the day that was very well thought out and helped the day flow so easily. On the wedding day, Lelia and Alyssa helped set up the venue and ensured every aspect ran smoothly.

Listen, if you're on the fence, don't be. Call Pinnacle Affairs. We were going to plan everything ourselves and now it's the biggest running joke we almost didn't hire Carice and her A team. From the moment we first met Carice from Pinnacle Affairs, we knew we were in good hands. Her communication style is calm, efficient, and kind, putting us at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of her work and the value she provided was truly outstanding - she was thoughtful, organized, and incredibly creative in helping us curate the perfect wedding weekend to kickstart this next chapter of our lives. Carice brought a wonderful sense of calm and humor to every interaction, making us feel instantly comfortable. There was no scenario she hadn't seen before or wasn't able to find a perfect and creative solution for, whether it was solving transportation snafus or tweaking our timeline. We are so grateful to Carice and the entire Pinnacle Affairs team for helping make our wedding day truly special and unforgettable. I cannot imagine planning any other event without her, I mean who else is going to keep my makeup intact?!

To us, every detail matters and that is why we make sure no detail goes unnoticed. We work with you from the beginning to help develop your unique vision and create the event of your dreams!

When choosing a day of coordinator for our wedding, one of our top priorities was finding someone we could fully trust to execute our vision. From our very first phone call with Hallie, we knew that her and her team were the perfect fit. Hallie is incredibly kind, detail-oriented, and confident. She knows exactly what needs to get done and the best way to get it done. Her team members are also phenomenal and they all worked together seamlessly with our other vendors so that every detail was executed as planned. Aside from the flawless wedding day, Hallie took SO much off of our plate in the final few months by creating our timeline and coordinating with our other vendors to ensure everyone was on the same page. She asked us questions about details we wouldn't have ever thought of, which helped to create a magical, stress-free wedding day. It really could not have been any better. A member of our wedding party said "I have seen so many stressed brides day of but you were legit vibing". She is correct -- I am typically an anxious person but I was able to enjoy and be present in every moment for the ENTIRE day and I owe a lot of that to Hallie and her team. Thank you, Hallie & team, for helping Conor and I create the perfect celebration of our love on the best day of our lives.

The result is a wedding that feels seamless, personal, and well cared for, allowing you to relax into the moment and truly enjoy it.

I want to thank Alisha at Productionista Events for being an integral part of making my wedding day a beautiful success! Alisha is very professional and goes above and beyond her job description. She was more than my Wedding Day of Coordinator she was my friend, my therapist, and more. As many brides already know, planning a wedding can be very stressful, and you don't know which vendors to trust and have to review so many contracts. Through Alisha, I was introduced to quality vendors she personally worked with, so I knew I would be surrounded by people I could trust on my special day. Alisha even caught a scheduling mistake in my DJ's contract. Alisha is very organized, kept track of all my vendors' payment dates, and kept me on budget. My wedding day was so beautiful and STRESS-FREE, and I have Alisha to thank for that. She even helped me with the bustling of my dress (my dress had 5 layers to bustle, so you could only imagine how difficult that task was). Thank you, Alisha, for your kindness, patience, for listening to me vent on occasion, professionalism, and just being a beautiful person inside and out. I can't thank you enough! If you are getting married, please work with Alisha you won't regret it!

Jenny, aka Opal Avenue Events, was a dream to work with! I reached out very early in the wedding-planning process to ask if she’d be available to be our day-of-coordinator for our non-traditional wedding, and I am so glad I did. From our very first conversation, Jenny was excited to help us plan and organize a South Asian-fusion wedding, instead of being deterred by the inherent challenges of doing something different from the norm. When I later asked her what she thought about centering swans, roses, tomatoes, and ribbons, she was even more enthusiastic and was ready to help ensure the vision would come true, while calmly listening to any concerns we had throughout. Planning a celebration that would coherently combine cultures with very different traditions was daunting, but having a professional who guided us through the process and validated our choices was truly invaluable. Throughout the planning process and on the day itself, Jenny was calm, prepared, and consistently professional. She went far beyond what we expected from a day-of coordinator, offering thoughtful insights into other potential vendors, drafting multiple timelines, and even creating beautiful and elegant swan place cards for our guests Above all, we wanted our guests to feel welcomed, loved, and to have a memorable experience, and Jenny helped make that happen. We are so thankful for her care, creativity, and support.
