They planned our wedding from top to bottom in under 3 months time, everything from design, personalized touches, venue and day of coordination.

My husband and I want to thank Stephany and her assistant Annie for all the attention given to us on our magical day. Our favorite part of working with Stephany was that she is extremely friendly and funny. Which honestly made us feel comfortable from the day we met, to every meeting that we had before the wedding day. We would recommend Stephany and Annie to family and friends. They are professional, friendly, and most important patient. Not once did we sense they felt overwhelmed or stressed about anything. Which definitely gave us peace of mind knowing everything was under control by them both. We are also thankful that Stephany and Annie went above and beyond for our magical day. We only hired a photographer, but without us asking Stephany and Annie ensured to capture many special moments during the event. Such as us walking down the aisle, dancing with our moms, and getting funky on the dance floor.

We hired Stacey in early 2020 to be a Month-Of-Coordinator for our October 2020 wedding. From the beginning, Stacey was one of the most responsive, helpful wedding coordinators that I reached out to. She offered great advice, explained the importance of having a Day-Of coordinator even if your venue happens to have one, had vendors to recommend, and was determined to bring our vision to reality, even while COVID-19 started to take over. Well, we all know how 2020 went, so when we ultimately decided to postpone our reception to 2021, Stacey remained in our corner throughout the decision and ultimately helped us to weigh the pros and cons of postponement. Then, throughout 2021, Stacey reached out around once a month to ensure we were on track with plans. She helped us to secure final vendors, review contracts, craft a perfect day-of timeline, ran our rehearsal, and made us feel incredibly confident that our big party would go off without a hitch. Stacey also has a keen eye for event styling, so we were able to trust all of our complicated decor to her and her team for set up the morning of the wedding, and she flawlessly coordinated a last-minute rain plan (which we made, and then with every miracle, didn't actually need!) She coordinated with all of our vendors, worked seamlessly with the in-house team at our venue, was warm, professional, and an invaluable asset to have running the biggest party of our lives. As a former stage manager and a bit of a control freak, having Stacey at our wedding was invaluable. If anything went wrong, I had no idea because of Stacey's magic touch.

Kaity Campbell Weddings & Events LLC 

5.0

  • Offers 6 services
  • Starts at $50
  • Serves St. James, NY for additional fees

With Kaity Campbell Events, you will have a truly luxurious customer experience from the moment you sign your contract all the way up to your event day, and even beyond. We believe that every wedding should be a reflection of your unique love story, and we are here to ensure that every detail is perfectly tailored to your desires. Our passion for creating unforgettable experiences, combined with our industry expertise, allows us to curate a seamless and stress-free wedding day that exceeds your expectations. Being able to create an event that is truly yours, and has all the elements you care about, is why I started doing what I do.

Kaity did a great job, especially considering all the uncertainty of bad weather (my ceremony was outdoors) we had to all deal with. She always had an upbeat and positive attitude the whole time, which I know can be very difficult to do around my family. She definitely would just roll with all the punches to keep us on track. I was anxious the entire day, but Kaity reassured me that she had everything under control and I knew I could trust her. She even went out of her way to get me and my husband little care packages on the day of, with inspiring notes. The only hiccups I actually noticed was with announcements and speeches, because the volume and echo was not great, so people didn't know when things were actually happening, so I wish we could've told the DJ sooner to fix the issue. We had also wanted to have our dinners boxed up, because my husband and I were both too anxious and excited to really eat, so our food ended up being thrown away, plus we didn't receive the top tier of our wedding cake to save for the tradition thing (but my guess is because they served it all to the guests). Unfortunately, at the end of the night, we were super rushed to get everything out of the building, because of the time and the pouring rain- I was running around barefoot in my dress while my husband was passed out in the car, and I was one of the few trying to get everything packed and cleaned up. However, Kaity and her husband really helped us out by collecting all the left items and holding onto them for us until the next day. She kept in contact, since at least a month beforehand, to make sure we had everything in order and sent her all the vendor contacts , so she could be included with all the day-of plans. She really did go above and beyond to make sure I had the best day possible, and I really appreciated that from her. I would definitely hire her again.

We worked with Veronica for our small, intimate wedding (40 people) using her month-of microwedding package. We got access to her planning software (even before the month-of), which allowed us to easily keep track of everything we needed to do to stay on track. Veronica was happy to answer any questions we had in the portal before the month-of if we needed any help. During the month-of, she was super helpful in finalizing all the little design details we hadn't thought of (chairs, linens, lighting, etc) and especially nailing down the timeline. During the day-of she was great working with all the vendors and ensuring everything went smoothly. Highly recommend Veronica & team for any help with your wedding!

Liz was absolutely incredible. From our first call, she took the time and care to understand my vision and executed it flawlessly on the big day. She contributed so many creative ideas and managed so many details that just made our wedding an impeccable masterpiece exhibiting all the love surrounding the day. My husband and I come from very different backgrounds and it wasn't easy to blend two different cultures and family dynamics. Liz understood this and even hopped on calls with my family to make everyone feel heard and included. She planned the day to honor my family's traditions while respecting the desires of my husband's family. She always prioritized my husband and I but made space for our family to feel loved and included in the process. Liz took the time to understand our families and their desire for the big day while prioritizing me as a bride and a client. Her passion and dedication were evident in every detail small and large.

DM Events planned our 200-person black tie wedding at Brooklyn Botanic Garden this fall. From the moment I first spoke to Dawn Goldsmith, I felt at ease. She is a true visionary and a powerhouse. Dawn kept not just me, but my husband, our families and our budget(!!), on track from our very first phone call to the end of the wedding night. She and her team are kind, thoughtful, sensitive to their clients’ preferences, and extremely responsive. Putting aside all of the variable twists and turns that came with the era of COVID-weddings (which were navigated with ease), Dawn designed and planned an absolutely picture perfect event that exceeded all expectations. She has impeccable taste and a way of articulating and evolving my vision better than I could. Her design-minded approach is something that was really important to me when selecting a planner – no detail too small! Regarding the day of, Dawn’s team is a well-oiled machine. If there were any hiccups (there weren’t), neither I nor my guests would have been any the wiser. It was smooth sailing. My family and I had guests approaching throughout the wedding, as well as a flood of texts and calls following the big day, saying things like “This is the nicest wedding I’ve ever been to” and “the quintessential New York City wedding”. Literally, the perfect day. Dawn Goldsmith is a total pro and a blessing to work with.

Eileen Smith Events

  • Offers 5 services
  • Serves St. James, NY for additional fees

Her experience, creativity & knowledge in the event industry puts her ahead of most in the area. She loves creating and working with clients on all levels to make their vision become a reality. "I love getting to know my clients and enjoy becoming their "New Best Friend" prior to the event.". Her talent in design, organization, and management makes any experience working with her effortless. She makes you feel so comfortable & give you the confidence it will be an amazing event.

I would first like to say, that I'm very honored to provide this review for Eileen Smith. She was absolutely the best to work with! I'm still in awe of how she pulled off my wedding in less than three months. With that said, here's why I feel this way. I was contracted with the Italian Center in Stamford, CT to have my wedding on August 26, 2023, in their summer tent. I knew there would be some work required to bring my vision to fruition, so I hired what I thought was a "wedding planner". This individual turned out to be a "party decorator", which I quickly realized, as soon as I spoke with Eileen, is a big difference from an experienced and professional Wedding Planner. The "party decorator" had no idea of all the intricate details required for a wedding. As the days grew close to my date, I was in complete shambles, frustrated and defeated. My wedding was going to be disaster! I could feel depression setting in, so I just started Googling every wedding planner in the tri-state (NY, NJ & CT) area. Most were already booked for the summer and not accepting any new gigs. I had called so many planners that my head was spinning, but I remember one agreed to speak with me on a Sunday afternoon in June. When she called me, she asked me to tell her what was going on. I started to explain my situation and the time constraint I was under. The first thing Eileen said to me was, "I'm so sorry you're going through this, so close to your wedding". It brought me to tears then, just as it's doing right now. I immediately felt like she cared and was going to rescue me. After some discussions, I hired Eileen and she took off from that point. She met with the venue representative several times, had countless calls and email communication with her to ensure I received the best service they could provide. She then informed me (unlike the "party decorator"), that the tent was way too big for my 100 guests and needed to be closed in. She had a decorator come in to drape off the tent which gave it a more intimate look. We then work with what I consider to be one of the coolest florist around. They absolutely understood the assigment. The centerpieces for the table were tall with white flowers, just how I envisioned it and the pillars of flowers at the altar were phenomenal. Everyone is still talking about how beautiful everthing was til this day. I could not have planned a better wedding if I started two years prior. Eileen stayed close to me throughout the entire process. She made sure all the vendors had their COI and performed the services they were hired for. Eileen packed up my husbands SUV at the end of the night with the two slices of cake I asked her to save for me. I would recommend her for her caring first, her professionalism and attention to detail. She definitely rescued my me!

During our meetings the day before and of the wedding, Rachel ensured that we felt confident and (most importantly) excited for our day! Rachel was readily available and always quickly responded to any questions or concerns we had. The weather was questionable the day before (during the rehearsal) and day of the wedding, and Rachel was completely prepared to change plans, as necessary. The day before and day of ran perfectly, and I credit that completely to Rachel’s work. If you are looking any event services, I HIGHLY recommend Rachel!

This talented planner works across the East Coast, collaborating with engaged couples throughout Washington DC, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, New York, and Pennsylvania areas. Will & Rose Events works with a personalized approach, taking the time to get to know your style and understand your vision for the day.

Ricki was the absolute best investment I made in my wedding. She was so easy to work with and is single-handedly the reason my wedding went off without a hitch. From our first meeting to loading up decor at the end of the wedding day, she was amazing, enthusiastic, and professional. She went above and beyond in dealing with vendors and took so much off my plate. She also saved my mental health in the months/weeks leading up to the wedding, not bothered by my many questions and random thoughts and happily answered them all. She took my random thoughts and my very rough vision for decor and ran with it. I was stunned and amazed when I saw how everything turned out. She also was amazing in dealing with an unhappy venue staff member at the end of the wedding, ensuring our evening was perfect. So much so that we didn’t realize anything had happened until the next day. I cannot recommend Ricki and her team enough!!

When I began my business over 20 years ago, I made a conscious decision to stand apart from other planners. I wanted to be available, tuned in and ready for anything. I bring a unique skillset, a dedication and a very personal approach to my business. I do not offer packages, instead giving to each couple whatever they need from me- my time, my expertise, my network. Your wedding is my top priority! And, I resolve to make every wedding a smashing success. With a 30+ year background in hospitality and events, you won't find a planner with more knowledge or experience. I have traveled the East Coast making magic- Let's Make Yours!

Wendy planned my wedding and she was amazing at helping me plan. She wasn’t just my planner, she was also my confidante, best friend, and therapist for it, and she has kept up on our lives and accomplishments since the wedding. And now I’ve rehired her to plan my vow renewal in 2026, and thanks to her, we have it mostly planned already. You cannot find a better or more experienced planner, and she is the kindest, sweetest, and most humble person you will ever meet

If you want someone who can help you plan the wedding of your dreams than Vanessa is the girl for you. On our first meeting, even before I hired her she was taking notes and making a timeline for me! She was never pushy and you can tell she truly does this because she loves her job. I had heard all the horror stories of the planners who take advantage of brides and secretly take kickbacks but this is NOT the case at all with Vanessa. I was at first skeptical about hiring someone to plan my Hindu-Jewish fusion wedding who was not of the same culture as me. Turns out I was very very very wrong. She knows more about these traditions than both my fiancé and I. She is always willing to go above and beyond. You can feel the warmth radiating from her and the knowledge. Planning a wedding half way across the country can seem daunting but Vanessa makes it so easy. My friends always comment that I must love wedding planning and I am the least stressed out bride but all credit goes to Vanessa. She literally carries all the stress. She is your friend, planner and therapist. I work a full time job and often call her on my drive home and we will start with how my day was and then we move to wedding details. She will always have your back. She has an extensive network of vendors she has worked with but also is always open to my suggestions of vendors I find. She has literally saved me thousands of dollars. My fiancé and I joked that she is our bodyguard in this crazy wedding industry world. Both of us are highly educated but Vanessa knows the right questions to ask and she also knows when something is not right. She is there to protect you. She will go over the details with a fine tooth comb. She will find people who fit your budget and style. She cares so much for her clients. The biggest mistake someone can make while planning their wedding is not hiring Vanessa. Hire her. You will not regret it.

Kenny and her team were so helpful! They are professional, organized, kind and went above and beyond 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.

Some fun facts about me are: I have 2 cats (Milo and Kiro) and 1 dog (Rory), My goal is to visit every state and continent before I turn 40, I'm a certified Swiftie, and Reality TV and chocolate are my guilty pleasures. Most likely to be seen carrying a binder and crying at first looks and vows.

I cannot say thank you enough to Steph! She was absolutely amazing. She was so committed to learning what aspects of the wedding were most important to us and making sure they happened on the day of. For example, we were getting caught up in the dancing and were going to skip the cake cutting. She didn’t push, she just asked, “Are you sure? You told me that this was something that was important to you, so I just want to check”. And I’m so thankful she did that, because it’s one of my favorite wedding moments! She went absolutely above and beyond for us. I am currently in medical school and was so stressed leading up to the wedding, but Steph made me feel like it was possible. She was so organized and wrote out every detail we discussed. She went out of her way to suggest some vendors we were struggling to book last minute, and the list goes on. I cannot recommend Steph enough. She is wonderful and sweet and kind and I cannot believe I found her! We could not have done it without her.

Even small things like helping put together centerpieces, Ash and Mukul did it all. And they did a phenomenal job of helping us put together a party that was not only gorgeous, but within our budget. The Cherry Bird team was just such a pleasure to work with. They were incredibly patient with us throughout the process, and on the day of, were so on top of things! By the time I would realize I wanted or needed something, I saw that Ash and Mukul had already taken care of it! Having them oversee this event was such a blessing.

When it became my turn to plan my dream wedding, I knew I wanted more. I loved every moment of wedding planning, and was actually thankful that COVID forced us into having the most magical, intimate, micro wedding of our dreams. After this blissful turn of events, and more and more mutual contacts reaching out for help to plan their weddings, I have set out to help other brides live out their dream wedding and getting back to what marriage is all about… love. Because after all, it’s a forever thing.

Working with Brittany was an absolute dream come true! From the initial consultation to the big day, she was nothing short of amazing. Not only was she incredibly organized and punctual, but her responsiveness truly put my mind at ease throughout the entire planning process. Brittany went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our wedding was perfect. Her attention to detail and dedication to making our vision a reality truly exceeded our expectations. What truly sets Brittany apart is her warm and personable nature. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, which made the entire experience feel personal and special. On the day of the wedding, I felt completely at ease knowing that she had everything under control, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the moment and enjoy every second of our special day. I cannot recommend Brittany highly enough. If you're looking for someone who is not only professional and organized but also genuinely cares about making your wedding day unforgettable, look no further. Thank you, Brittany, for making our wedding day the best day of our lives!
