    Day of Coordination for Trad

    I hired Tiana after getting rave review from my younger sister. Even though she had a short
    Timetable to work with, she and her team definitely delivered! They helped me and my mom stay organized with our vendors. She even helped me secure a hair vendor in a week! The day of, her staff made things smooth and really helped me and my hubby stay calm. It was worth every penny. I highly recommend using them!

    Best event planner

    Phoriah Events is an outstanding event planner, she’s very articulate and very good at her job. Her communication skill is good, she pays attention to details, she literally took away all my troubles and burdens for my big day. Phoriah Events is a TOP NOTCH, I will recommend her to everyone who needs a planner. She’s very understanding and also knows how to work with your budget. She helped my husband and I reduced all our vendors to the exact money we were able to afford. She coordinated my wedding in a way I couldn’t even imagine. I am so happy to know her and her team.
    Give Phoriah Events your dream event, and she will make it a reality. I am grateful to you and your team. Thank you so much.

    Excellent Service

    Tiana and her team were excellent!!! She had a everything ready - offered us a number of great ideas and was very responsive throughout the planning. She was very helpful and valuable in creating the day-of timeline and coordinating all of the vendors. On the day-off our venue was running late and she was able to smooth it out to make sure our day went perfect. I would certainly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a planner that actually responds and cares.

    Best Experience Ever

    Tiana was totally incredible. I exceptionally suggest procuring Phoriah Events for all your wedding organizer/facilitator needs! She addressed each and every one of my inquiries for a considerable length of time leading all the way to the wedding and made a detailed schedule/timeline which gave helped us tremendously because it helped us have an idea of how things would be on our special day! She facilitated with every one of the vendors and even took care of all the issues with the band and videographer. I never felt worried on the day of the wedding and it was the most magical and perfect day because of Tiana! She worked tirelessly to help ensure every detail was taken care of. She was also well prepared for any circumstances that may happen - including a bridesmaid who needed the jewel on her dress to be reattached. Help yourself out and hire Phoriah Events for your special day!

    Wow! I’m not sure where to begin. Hiring Phoriah events was the best decision ever. Ms. Christiana was an angel. She went over and above what we expected of a wedding planner. We shared our vision with Christiana, and she made it happen. Christiana was easy to talk with and professional at all times. Our questions were responded to promptly. In the days leading up to the wedding, I was stressing unnecessarily. Christiana was always just a phone call or text message away. Our day was perfect because of Phoriah events high standard for excellence. It’s a shame we can only give a 5 star rating. Phoriah events deserves much more than that.
    Forever thankful,
    The Wyatts

    It was such a pleasure using their services. They made life so much easier for me. They are very professional, they are creative, they think above and beyond and they their services are excellent. I would definitely be calling them for another event and would be referring them to friends and family members.

    We decided to book Phoriah Events for day-of-coordination about a month before our wedding and we are so very glad that we did! Tiana started working with us immediately, she contacted and confirmed all of our vendors, she helped us create a detailed timeline for our wedding day, communicated with our venue to answer any questions from our vendors, and kept us on track for completing all the things that needed to be completed in the weeks leading up to the wedding. My husband and I had an Indian wedding ceremony and Tiana made sure that she asked any questions that she had about the ceremony and traditions so that everything went exactly how we wanted it to on our wedding day. Tiana also attended our final meeting with our venue and our rehearsal and always went above and beyond to make sure everything was to our liking and more importantly that we were not stressed and that we were enjoying the process. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and we really do credit Tiana and her team for making all of our plans come to fruition that day. We did not have a worry in the world because we knew Tiana was there and we are so grateful for her time and efforts. All throughout, Tiana showed us professionalism and also kindness - she truly wanted us to enjoy our wedding day and we absolutely did, thanks to her and her team. Thanks, Phoriah Events! We could not have done it without you.

    Phoriah Events's reply:

    Thank you so much Nisha and Josh, it was such a nice experience and you both made it worthwhile. From the moment we meet up to the final day, though short, you both were approachable, detail oriented, and pleasant. I definitely enjoyed every moment, conversations and planning process. Thanks for the opportunity to share your special day with and we are so glad we meet your expectations. Have a Wonderful and blissful marriage.......Love Tiana and Team

    Tiona is awesome!! My wedding probably wouldn't have even happened if it wasn't for her. Planning is too much for someone like me, so I decided to hire Tiona as a day-of coordinator. She is much more than just "day-of". My wedding day went smoothly, I had no worries, and would definitely recommend her!!

    Phoriah Events's reply:

    it was such a pleasure working with you both, from the moment we met, you both were so accepting and every idea recommended was taken. I really had a blast coordinating your wedding and i wish you both a blissful marriage. Enjoy your honeymoon.......

    I highly recommend Tiana and her staff. She went above and beyond what I contracted her for. I planned 90% of my wedding with some help from my mother. I hired Tiana a few weeks before the day just for "day of" coordination. From the moment I hired her she took over with contacting vendors and working out details I had not thought of. She attended the rehearsal for our outdoor wedding and when we realized the weather wouldn't cooperate, which we didn't plan for, she jumped into her contacts and got me beautiful decorations for our indoor backup room at a great price. I definitely appreciate her help and support and will be recommending her to a few of my engaged friends.

    Phoriah Events's reply:

    Oh Whoa Sametria, thank you so much. You made it easy to work with you, you were terrific and so pleasant from the first day we met and also very responsive to my emails, text and calls. it was truly my pleasure working with you and your family. Wish you both a blissful marriage.
    Love Always,
    Tiana

    I loved their service!!! I first started planning on my own then I felt overwhelmed but after talking to Tiana the event coordinator, she made everything a lot easier for me. My wedding was everything that I wanted, from the venue, food, and the tiny details. I recommend everyone to use her for whatever event they are going to have.

    They were exceptional, well coordinated, organized and we did not have to worry about anything during the planning process. They helped us manage and stay within our budget. We enjoyed every moment we worked with them. What we enjoyed most was how detailed oriented and friendly they were. On our wedding day, our guests we pleased and we were extremely excited that the whole day was organized and our vision was expressed. Thanks a million Phoriah Events....Love to you.

    We planned our wedding in 6 months and wouldn't have pulled off our dream wedding without Tiana.

    Tiana is resourceful, exceptionally creative, responsive, detail oriented. At our first meeting, she asked us for a vision of the day and took note of everything we articulated. A few months later, I was vacillating between 2 colors and she reminded me that I had mentioned that I didnt like one of the colors during our initial meet. I was surprised that she remembered and that was only one of numerous instances where she helped us to stay true to the vision for our wedding.

    Tiana is dependable and reliable. If Tiana was taking care of it, then it was off my list. It is a breath of fresh air to work with a competent professional. Her ability to think quickly to resolve crisis and emergencies is remarkable.
    On our wedding day, I had zero worries on my mind because I trusted her to take care of whatever came up. We were not disappointed. She did a superb job and we are very pleased with the quality she delivered.

    I met my wedding coordinator through a friend of mine whose wedding was actually a week apart from mine. From our first meeting, I knew she was God sent because I had just placed a big bomb on her by telling her my wedding was only 2 months away and it consisted of three important events and there was no room for cutting corners: Traditional African ceremony, Wedding ceremony and the evening reception. I just knew this will be challenging for anyone but Tiana took on the task with no fret. Always consistent, persistent and encouraging even when I tried to give up on things that meant something to me but seem impossible, she always found a way. She helped nail down almost all our selected vendors within a week after meeting. She worked diligently with our budget and strive to stay within our limits. What can I say the girl got MAGIC TOUCH! Because on April 4th, I was not disappointed one bit. I could have turned around thinking this wasn't my wedding because that was how good it looked.
    While getting prepped for the ceremony, two of my glam squad made a comment that really is a testament of God and a God sent event planner. They said "this is the first CALM bride they have worked with" Well my mind was at rest because I was rest assured Tiana got everything under control. It was a TRUST and CONFIDENCE built over a little short time and I will forever owe a big part of our wedding success to Phoriah events. If you want her now, better not hesitate because she already won the hearts of many of my guests who will be booking her services for their upcoming events.

    D'Xquisite planned my surprise baby shower in Dec. I was more than pleased with the entire experience. Even though I chose not to be involved in any aspect of planning my shower, I was extremely impressed with how the event accurately represented my taste and vision. It was very unique, organized, and fun. All my guests commented on how impressed they were with the ambience and décor. Unlike any other baby shower I had attended; not the typical shower when you know exactly what comes next. I could not have planned a better event myself. Based on feedback received after the shower from my friends and family that worked directly with Christiana and staff; she was very responsive, reliable, and easy to work with. I still look at my pictures from the event periodically and smile. I will be using this company for future events. Outstanding work!!!
