About Cathy's Elegant Events, LLC
Cathy's Elegant Events, LLC
Cathy founded Cathy's Elegant Events in 2010. Although she was born in NYC, her family moved to the Catskill Mountains at a young age, but they maintained a home in Brooklyn. This allowed her to have a unique upbringing in both Upstate New York and Brooklyn, where many of her relatives still reside. Cathy holds a degree in Mathematics and Statistics.
With over 50 years of wedding planning experience between us, we're a top-notch team in the Hudson Valley, recognized with numerous awards. Our varied backgrounds have equipped us to plan flawlessly and handle unexpected situations with ease and perfection.
In three words: Creative, Efficient, Organized

Description | This is the perfect package if you don't have a lot of free time, would like help and guidance throughout the planning process but would like a professional to handle the details and arrangements. This package will allow you and your fiancee to enjoy the engagement period and put your energy into the fun and exciting part of the planning process. Go ahead, relax, and let us do the heavy lifting. | You can hire us for either Full or Partial Planning + the cost of travel. We would require at least 1 site visit in the immediate future for preparation purposes and then of course the travel required for the wedding itself. | Full Design is included in both our Partial and Full Planning Packages. After your first tour of the Venue, we help with planning and suggest vendors. You can reach us anytime by email, Zoom, phone, or text. We'll meet every two weeks to check progress and plan. We design sketches and 3D models for your wedding. This gives you a preview of key elements. We handle all details, including budget, bookings, and progress. | The ideal package if you have already begun the planning process and/or have flexibility with your schedule. You would like professional assistance with design, vendor referrals, professional wedding advice, staying on schedule and keeping everything organized throughout the planning process but can manage a handful of the bigger ticket items on your own. |

We LOVE Cathy’s Elegant
I had a wonderful experience working with Cathy's Elegant Events, LLC for several weddings. The communication was quick, accurate, and always on time. The quality of their work was strong, timely, and highly effective. Cathy is on top of everything all the time and ensured that every detail of each special day was perfectly executed. I would highly recommend Cathy's Elegant Events to any couple planning their wedding.
For a seamless and perfectly planned day!
I have been working with Cathy since 2021 and always love being part of the wedding days she and her team plan. She provides a flawless experience for her couples, with thorough attention to detail and well-crafted timelines, all while maintaining a very light footprint on the day. Cathy manages every aspect of the wedding seamlessly, responding quickly (and quietly) to any situation. Very few planners can execute so flawlessly without adding stress to a wedding day, and even fewer can subtract stress, making the day feel like a dream. Cathy possesses those rare talents. It’s always such a pleasure for me to collaborate with her and serve our clients together. I highly recommend Cathy to any couple in search of an experienced planner to help manifest the perfect wedding day.

I've had the pleasure of working with Cathy's Elegant Events, LLC on several weddings, and I can't say enough good things about their service.

They consistently create amazing weddings with a low-stress, punctual approach that makes the entire process seamless. I highly recommend Cathy's Elegant Events to any couple looking for a wedding planner they can count on.
Cathy is an all around awesome person!
It was so fun getting to spend time with her and getting to know her during this process. Cathy made every little detail of our fairytale wedding come true. She was terrific during the planning process. When I wanted to try to handle projects myself, she stepped back and let me handle them, but was always there if I needed advice or help with anything. When I needed her to be more involved and hands on, I felt completely confident and comfortable letting her take things in the direction that she felt was best. She was always quick to answer emails and talk on the phone to hash out big picture items or last minute details. The week leading up to the wedding Cathy was AMAZING. We spent almost 2 hours on the phone making sure every last detail was taken care of and exactly the way I envisioned it. She ran our ceremony in the pouring rain and was always cheerful and positive, she was there for me for moral support all afternoon while I was getting ready, she helped setup the barn and ceremony beautifully and made sure every detail was in order. During the ceremony and reception, she made sure that my husband and I were taken care of the entire evening. Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish and Cathy's expertise, guidance and help played such a huge part in the success of our wedding day. Thank you Cathy!! Tim and I are so grateful for all the hardwork and love you put into making our day great.
