About Standing Ovations Weddings & Events

Standing Ovations Weddings & Events

Owner/Lead Planner

Standing Ovations Weddings & Events is considered one of the top event planning companies in Georgia. With over 20 years of experience, our events are well-crafted works of art that speak to our clients’ style and vision. At Standing Ovations Weddings & Events, we see event planning as a creative formula: Client + Standing Ovations= Innovative Events. We highlight the unique ambiance that you want your family and guests to always remember. We approach all events, no matter the size, as a grand production from beginning to the end. We promote cohesiveness and the most memorable experience for our clients

Some key areas that I focus on are: Relationship-Centered Approach: I help guide couples through pre-wedding stress, manage potential family tensions, and create an experience that strengthens their bond rather than adding strain; Holistic Planning: Beyond creating beautiful events, I focus on crafting meaningful experiences that reflect the couple’s values, story, and emotional connection.; and Attention to Detail: My precision ensures no detail is overlooked, from timelines to décor, while maintaining focus on the overall emotional experience.

In three words: Creative, Honest, Organized

    I cannot even begin to express how incredible our experience was with Racquel! If you are even considering hiring a wedding planner, do yourself a favor and go with her—your big day will be in the best hands! From the moment we reached out to inquire about her services, we were blown away by her level of professionalism, attention to detail, and sheer passion for what she does. Racquel became more like a friend than just a vendor. She took the time to truly understand our vision, our personalities, and all the little things that mattered to us. Every time we had a question or needed advice, she was there—whether it was late at night or on a weekend. Racquel brought our dream wedding to life in a way that exceeded our wildest expectations. She helped us stay organized, sane, and stress-free throughout the entire process. She took care of every little detail, from coordinating with the venue to managing timelines, so we could just enjoy the fun parts of wedding planning. Her design sense is impeccable—she transformed the space into a beautiful, elegant, intimate courtyard that had our guests thinking we were in Italy! On the wedding day itself, we had zero worries. Her team was there early to ensure everything was set up perfectly, and they handled any hiccups (no matter how minor) without us even knowing about them. Our ceremony, reception, and everything in between went off without a hitch, and we were able to just be present and enjoy every single moment. If you’re looking for a planner who goes above and beyond—who listens, who cares, and who will help create the wedding of your dreams—look no further. We are forever grateful for her expertise, guidance, and perfect execution on our special day. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
