Meet JANET: Your Cleveland Event Planning Expert

For nearly three decades, I’ve been the driving force behind some of Cleveland’s most memorable weddings, social events, and corporate celebrations. From intimate gatherings to large-scale affairs like the Cleveland BiCentennial, I’ve orchestrated it all—always with the same goal: creating flawless, unforgettable experiences for my clients. Need to quickly cover a rogue sprinkler head before it ruins the moment? I’ve got you covered. My secret? A deep-rooted knowledge of the local scene, a network of trusted vendors who feel like family, and a passion for finding the perfect venue for any occasion.

I thrive on the unexpected, transforming potential hiccups into smooth solutions that leave guests none the wiser. But it’s not just about solving problems—it’s about crafting personalized experiences that reflect who you are. From the smallest detail to the grandest gesture, I ensure that every moment feels as special as you deserve. Whether you’re dreaming of a quiet, intimate affair or a grand celebration that makes a statement, I’ll bring your vision to life, managing every detail so you can relax and enjoy the moment. Let’s create an event that’s as unique as you are— together.

In three words: Creative, Fun, Supportive

Description

The SES Full Planning package is for the busy couple that may not have time to plan, yet still wants to have a stress-free wedding day. I am there to plan every aspect of your wedding, down to the last detail. From the selection of the perfect venue to a variety of vendors selection to helping design & create your programs. I’ll be there every step of the way.

This custom package is perfect for the couple who is excited to plan their wedding but needs some professional assistance to get to the proverbial finish line. I will guide you along the way as you: manage and select vendors, attend appointments, create and manage the budget, develop master timelines, and much more. It’s your fairytale, so let me take on the bulk of the work to help make planning your day less stressful and overwhelming.

Do you have all of your vendors picked out, contracts signed, and most everything else prepared? What about the logistics of the actual rehearsal and wedding day? Who will make sure the reception is set up the way you want? What if vendors aren’t on time for set up? These are just some of the details of the wedding day that stress couples out and are all the parts that I will handle for you, so you can fully enjoy every minute of your day.

    I cannot say enough about Janet Abbey of Sterling Events Services, who planned my daughter’s wedding, as it was beyond what we imagined. Working with her was wonderful and she has years of experience planning every type of event at a variety of venues, and has worked with the top vendors. My daughter and her fiancé knew they were in good hands working with her, as she understood their vision and helped create a magnificent, most memorable evening!!
