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.

In middle school, I read a book whose main characters were wedding planners and from then on I was in love with the idea of planning weddings for a living. My dream became a reality in 2020 when I finally went off on my own and created Livvy Marie Weddings. With over 10+ years of experience in the field and education from UCF and Rosen Hospitality Management, and now my own business, I have had the honor of helping numerous couples plan and live the wedding of their dreams. I cannot wait to help you with yours!

ARH Events

We are a boutique wedding planning company serving Florida and North Carolina and its surrounding areas. At ARH Events we pride ourselves on getting to know our couples and we believe that those relationships are integral to building a wedding that is truly reflective of our clients personalities.

As a bride planning for a 2022 wedding, engaging ARH Events was an excellent decision. I would strongly recommend them to any bride-to-be who is organizing their dream wedding. I had been in touch with several other wedding planners, but ARH Events was the first to arrange a meeting and provide clear information about packages and pricing, which I greatly appreciated. Amy brought my dream wedding to life. Being an out-of-state bride, I had concerns about realizing my vision, but Amy exceeded all expectations. She was deeply involved in the planning process and consistently responded to my queries via email. Choosing ARH Events proved to be a wise decision due to Amy's extensive experience. Her knowledge of numerous vendors enabled me to secure discounts from my preferred suppliers. Furthermore, her familiarity with my venue simplified the decor planning and setup process. My wedding day unfolded flawlessly, thanks to the Amy at ARH Events. I was spared the task of dealing with vendors or answering countless questions. This allowed me to truly enjoy my wedding day, remain stress-free, and focus on the celebration. Without hesitation, I would hire Amy again.

JayLynn is FANTASTIC! She traveled solo all the way to Arkansas for our wedding day! We booked her over 1 year out from our wedding & we started our google meets once a month to plan. She helped plan the finest details and offered her input and advice for every part. The day of the wedding I had a dress malfunction & she went to the store to grab the needed supplies to fix it. Her personality is so bubbly and she is very easy to get along with. We had the most perfect day & are so glad she helped make our wedding run smoothly. We highly recommend her for your wedding!

My fiancé and I hired Kat and the Evviva team for full planning/design and late night film for our November 2024 wedding. After our first call with Kat, we hung up and knew she was the absolute best person to make our vision come to life. I truly cannot imagine our day without her and her team who made it beyond anything we could have dreamed. Kat took our Pinterest boards, our wild ideas, and ALL our conversations and made every detail big and small so perfect. The day of our wedding was an absolute blast thanks to Kat and Nikki for making us feel like royalty and taking the stress off our plates. If we could renew our vows every year just to work with Kat, Nikki, Natalie and Bridget again we absolutely would. Best decision ever! 100000/10!!

Can't emphasize enough how all my stresses went away once she stepped in and solved any issues before we knew they were a thing. The day of went so smoothly because at every step Carina and her assistant we're there to tackle things while still having fun with us!

Ayla knew exactly when to step-in, how and handled so much for us. We knew we’d both get pretty drunk so we counted on her to handle pretty much everything day-of. When I tell you she knew when to feed us, who to talk to, how to set things up….our day was absolutely perfect! We also had no idea where our vow books ended up (that was before we started drinking) and she mailed them to us, which was such a sweet surprise. Ayla and her team were great!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Kristen Caputo Weddings & Events highly enough! My husband and I had a beach wedding last month and I was trying to handle everything myself, until I realized just how overwhelmed I was. Kristen had great reviews and after reaching out, I thought she had very fair prices for her services. I hired her to be my coordinator and I’m SO thankful I did! After every planning call with her, I would feel like a weight was lifted. She always had such helpful input throughout our calls and there are SO many things I would have overlooked without her there to guide me. On the big day Kristen and her Assistant Megan were AMAZING! I really thought I was going to spend the day worrying about if things were being set up the way I wanted them. On the actual day I wasn’t worried at all, by that point I had so much confidence in Kristen I knew she’d make it happen! And she did! My wedding was set up exactly how I wanted it and everything flowed so nicely! Megan waited with my dad and I before walking down the aisle and she was a lifesaver! She held all my things and helped me stay calm! Our ceremony turned out beautifully. I couldn’t believe how pretty it looked when I got to the aisle! It was better than I had hoped for. For the reception Kristen and Megan directed all our guests while we took photos. Then they made sure we got food and drinks and some time to ourselves before the socializing. Our reception turned out to be so much fun and all of our friends and family LOVED Kristen and Megan! They got to know our guests and they just felt like family celebrating with us by the end of the night! To any brides reading this in need of a wedding coordinator/planner- do yourself a favor and contact Kristen right now! My wedding was a beautiful, fun, and unforgettable day and I owe that to all of Kristen and Megan’s hard work!!! I couldn’t have done it without them!

I hired Katie as my assistant planner for an August wedding. This is our second time working together on a wedding. She is easy to work with and is on her A game. Her emergency kit saved the entire day. Hiring Katie is a must, and she loves color as I do when planning events.

We hired Jacinda for month/day of coordination and it was honestly the BEST decision we made while wedding planning! We got to work with Jacinda and LeAnna and they were absolutely amazing!

LeAnna was on top of everything the day of, if something went wrong we have no idea. I was a DIY bride and LeAnna made my vision come to life!

We are so grateful and glad that we found Myesha at Belton Bliss Events for our wedding. From the first moment we met her, we had a gut feeling that she was the right person to help us, and we were so right. Our wedding was pretty big (140 people) with lots of moving parts, and Myesha was integral to it being the best wedding we could have ever asked for. Our guests raved about how smooth and fun everything was, and we stayed ahead of schedule for almost the entire day. When I asked her mid-day if anything catastrophic had happened, she said "I would never tell you if it had" and I trusted her completely to handle anything that came up. And she did! As a testament to how wonderful Myesha is, and how she will go above and beyond for her couples: At the end of the night, we left the venue for our after party... and about an hour later, we realized Myesha had walked over to tell us that we'd left our cake and leftover food behind! We were prepared to send a family member to grab it, but Myesha instead got our hotel key, ran across town and delivered everything to our room so it was there when we got back from our after-party. Even when I woke up at 4 am on the wedding day with an idea for something I wanted to make happen, she said "Don't worry about it" and made it happen. We love Myesha, and you cannot go wrong hiring her!
