April makes it all happen. It's an awesome feeling to know that even when you run out of time, the party will happen just as you want it to with April running the event. April attends to all of the details, goes above and beyond with her own creative ideas, and is one of the hardest, fastest workers I've seen.

April and her staff did an incredible job planning and executing our daughter's Baptism. We had approximately 100 guests and a limited budget and April's creativity provided a very elegant party in my backyard. We had a conversation about last minute details the day before the party and April ended the conversation by saying, "My goal for the day is for you to do absolutely nothing but enjoy yourself." And I did. I felt like a guest in my own home. The staging of the food/cakes/wine was magazine worthy. She saved me so much money and created something more beautiful than I would have. And to top it all off, when I complimented her on all of her hard work she said, "I just love a good party!" with a gracious smile.

As the mother of the groom, it was my first experience with a wedding planner. Because of the distance, April helped me with my event, which was the rehearsal dinner. April was amazing...she was always upbeat and to the point; requests were handled very quickly. She handled all our car services which is huge in NYC! At the wedding and reception, she was great with the little ones; extremely intuitive with her ability to anticipate everyone's needs even before they knew they had one, and I can't imagine how it could have gone so well without her. April Shreck is truly a treasure and shines at her vocation!

If you want to RELAX and ENJOY your event, HIRE APRIL! My only mistake was not hiring her in the beginning of the event, I hired her half way through the planning. I didn't understand fully how much thought, time and energy planning a huge event took! She took all the stress of follow up, payments, finding vendors, handling stressful situations, off of my back and my family as well. I worry by nature, but my wedding day was PERFECT. I married the man of my dreams but besides that everyone warned me SOMETHING will go wrong. Well, with strategic planning and preparedness for anything- nothing went wrong!!! And if it did, no one knew about it. Aprils attitude is nothing short of hugely optimistic and I love her!!

April coordinated an Oktoberfest party for 150 people a week ago. While it wasn't a wedding, I kept saying, "I would love it if my wedding reception was like this!". She was meticulous with details, creating a fun, joyous vibe that overflowed to the guests at the party. When we met to plan the party, she was efficient and found the best deals on the tent/tables/barware/etc. In the past, I have planned the Oktoberfest party myself and April was able to spend roughly the same amount of money as I had but the quality of the party and decor was in a different league. Once it was all put together, we felt like the tent was lacking a little pop so she went to the field nearby, cut some wildflowers and added them to the tables and it looked so chic. That's what she does--sees a need and comes up with a solution. And all before the guests arrived!

I had asked April as a friend to help direct everything on our wedding day, just so I didn't have to think about it. She did so much more than I expected! She was on top of every detail and took care of the little hiccups in the day. Including a family of ten that showed up who's response was lost in the mail! April is very friendly and very hard working. I would recommend her to anyone as their wedding planner.

I used April as a day of coordinator. She is AMAZING!!! We meet 2 weeks before the wedding and I basically handed her my wedding tied up in a bow and she took it and made sure it was executed exactly as I had in my head! She made my day so relaxed and stress free. She contacted all the vendors and made sure that they call her with all questions and problems, she set up my venue and made sure every last detail was perfect. It was very nice to only have to tell one person my vision and not have to explain it to all these different people or vendors. Her personality is perfect for her business. She is the sweetest person you will ever meet, but her sweetness absolutely does not affect how she kicks-ass. She has a way of telling someone what to do or what they are doing wrong and they still walk away with a smile on their face. I got a compliment from my vendors how pleasant she was to work with. I love April and me and my new husband are forever grateful for what she has done for us!

April saved the day as my Day-of-Coordinator for our Upstate New York wedding. From day one of planning April quickly took charge and connected me with an absolutely phenomenal photographer. Her expertise and connections in the area are unending. If she doesn't know the answer she will sure find it!!

She came to my family's lake-house as the bridal party was getting dressed, coordinated my tardy bridesmaids, managed the time and photographer's schedule, checked in with me about personal needs and managed to remain cool and collected. She also managed to hop into the limo before I went down the isle, calmed my nerves, smoothed my veil and train and sent me on my way with a smile.

The entire time April was helping with the wedding she was cheery, professional and thorough. She even helped keep our two moody 9 year old junior-bridesmaids smiling through out all of the photos! I am sure there must have been details that went wrong through out the day but I sure didn't see any of them, thanks to April. April handles crisis management with composure and poise! I would absolutely recommend her to a friend who is in need of a planner!
