Erin’s the best, highly recommend!!

Working with Erin was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We live in Connecticut and planned our wedding in Sonoma, which came with plenty of logistical challenges, but Erin and her team made the entire process feel effortless.

From the very beginning, we had organized monthly planning calls that kept us on track and made every step of the process manageable. Erin helped us find incredible local vendors and assembled a team that made our wedding day truly unforgettable.

On the wedding day itself, Erin was exceptional. She seamlessly coordinated all of our vendors and handled every detail behind the scenes, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment without worrying about the logistics. She even came to the rescue after the ceremony by finding pins to bustle my wife’s dress when we couldn’t figure it out ourselves—a small moment that perfectly reflected how prepared and attentive she was throughout the day.

I could go on and on about how amazing Erin was, but her work truly speaks for itself. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, experienced, calm under pressure, and genuinely invested in making your wedding the best day possible, I can’t recommend Erin highly enough. Our wedding simply wouldn’t have been the same without her.

Everything we hoped for and more!

From the very beginning, our wedding planner made this entire process feel so much less stressful and so much more exciting. Planning a wedding after 15+ years together and with 5 kids could have easily felt overwhelming, but Erin helped bring our vision to life in such a beautiful and organized way.

She listened to every detail we wanted, answered all of our questions, and truly cared about making our day special. From the planning process to the wedding day itself, everything flowed so smoothly because of her hard work, communication, and attention to detail.

Our wedding day was honestly everything we dreamed of and more, and we are so thankful for all the time, effort, and love she put into making it happen. We were actually able to enjoy the day and be fully present with our family and friends knowing everything was taken care of.

We couldn’t recommend her enough to any couple looking for someone who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. Thank you for helping make one of the most important days of our lives absolutely perfect!

Erin is Fantastic!

We are very grateful to have Erin with us through the whole planning process. As it was an out of town wedding we relied on Erin’s connections and guidance to bring the wedding together in less than a year. The day of the wedding we were able to relax knowing that Erin was in charge and orchestrating the chaos of herding a wedding party around from photos to the reception. She was a calm presence that elevated any pressure and anxiety from us and everything came together just as we hoped.

The best wedding investment!

Erin is truly the absolute best and was hands down the best investment we made during our wedding planning process. From day one, she brought an incredible level of expertise, organization, and calm that made everything feel so much more manageable. Her network of trusted vendors and resources made decision-making easy and stress-free, and it was clear she’s deeply respected in the industry.

Throughout the entire process, Erin was always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and provide thoughtful recommendations. The months leading up to a wedding can be overwhelming, but she took so much off our plate like coordinating with vendors, communicating directly with our venue, and ensuring every detail was handled with care.

When it came to our rehearsal and wedding day, Erin and her team were absolutely flawless. The rehearsal was seamless and efficient, and on the day of the wedding, everything ran perfectly according to plan. If anything went wrong, we had no idea, which is exactly what you want! Erin made sure we stayed on schedule and handled everything behind the scenes so we could be fully present and enjoy every moment.

We had zero stress on our wedding day, and that is entirely because of Erin. We truly cannot recommend her enough, she is simply the best!

Best wedding planner

We were very pleased to have Erin as our wedding planner. Even though we didn't have that much time to plan our wedding (only about 5 months), she was able to help us plan everything pretty smoothly. She was always very responsive and supportive. We would not have been able to have such a beautiful wedding without her help, taking care of contacting every party involved, from music to catering. And during the day of the wedding, she was also taking care of every little detail, making sure that the party would move along as planned.

So grateful we chose Erin

From the very beginning of wedding planning, I knew I wanted a professional to be in charge of the day. My biggest fear was relying on my family—especially my mom and sister—and putting pressure on them to handle logistics, questions, and timing instead of being fully present with me.

When I started meeting with wedding coordinators, everyone was lovely and kind, but Erin immediately stood out. Her calm, professional, and genuinely kind demeanor gave me complete reassurance that my wedding day would be in the best hands. I also knew I would be happy working with her during our monthly check-ins leading up to the wedding—she was incredibly easy to talk to and genuinely cared about me and my vision for the day.

Our wedding was at Ruby Hill, and when I met Erin at the venue, every staff member greeted her with such excitement and immediately told me I was in great hands. Seeing how everyone lit up when they saw her spoke volumes about her reputation and the respect she has in the industry.
Erin was also invaluable when it came to vendor recommendations. From florals to photo/video, DJ, hotel room blocks, and everything in between, she connected me with amazing vendors and worked seamlessly even with those she didn’t know personally. On the wedding day, everything felt perfect—on time, smooth, and stress-free. I genuinely enjoyed my wedding day and felt completely present.

My entire family was impressed by Erin, and she effortlessly blended in while ensuring everything ran flawlessly. I chose her Ruby Hill planning package, which was uniquely comprehensive for a “month-of coordination” style package—far more than what other coordinators offered. This made me feel even more at ease and confident that we were in great hands. Her dedication never went unnoticed; she was consistently dependable and always (and I truly mean always) showed up for us, which meant so much to my husband and me.

I highly recommend Erin and would choose her all over again. Thank you, Erin, for helping make our wedding day unforgettable! ❤️

Erin is great!

Erin was wonderful to work with! My husband and I discovered Allora Event Design through our venue’s preferred vendor list, and she truly delivered on everything we hoped for. Throughout the planning process, she was knowledgeable, organized, and always willing to lend a helpful hand. Her detailed to-do lists and monthly check-ins made it easy to stay on track.

Our wedding was a cross-cultural East African celebration, and Erin took the time to understand our traditions and carried out our itinerary beautifully. She is warm, approachable, and reassuring whenever any concerns come up. On the wedding day, she handled last-minute adjustments with ease and efficiency, keeping everything running seamlessly.

We confidently recommend Allora Event Design and Erin’s team to anyone searching for a dedicated and professional wedding planner!

Erin was so helpful, organized, and flexible with our schedules. Every aspect of wedding planning was addressed. She went above and beyond what we had agreed upon. We cannot thank Erin enough for her hard work and would recommend her to any and all without hesitation. Everyone should use Erin for their wedding planning. Thank you!

Erin is the best!

Erin was an absolute dream to work with! She is incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and always one step ahead. Her memory is unreal, and she handled every little thing, big and small, with total calm and kindness. She was so helpful, so thoughtful, and truly made our entire wedding planning process (and the big day itself!) feel smooth, stress-free, and even fun. We are beyond grateful for everything she and her team did to bring our vision to life. I would 100% recommend her to anyone, she’s just the best!
