Betrothed Weddings & Events

If you are reading this review and Emma has your date open, BOOK HER. Emma helped us seamlessly navigate planning an 170-person wedding, through a COVID-related delay, that was 1,000 miles away from where we were living. She was with us every step of the way, not only helping plan out and execute every detail but keeping us sane along the way. If I had to give anyone planning a wedding one piece of (unsolicited :)) advice, it would be this: hire vendors that you like. People that you want to work with, that you trust, and can also enjoy the process with. Emma is that person. She's extremely organized, kind, patient, and direct when she needs to be (like corraling people on the wedding day!). During my wedding weekend, one of my bridesmaids came up to me and said "I thought I had a good wedding planner... until I met Emma." Do yourself a huge favor and hire betrothed event & wedding planning.

Emma at Betrothed was amazing from beginning to end - always happy to help with any questions/decision making and she went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day went as smoothly as possible. When we realized there was no gin for one of our two signature cocktails just minutes before the ceremony began, on 4th of July no less, she found an open liquor store and got it back to the wedding before cocktail hour even started. Magic!
Her whole organization system for the day and leading up to the wedding was reassuring in itself. Obviously wedding planning is overwhelming and stressful, but knowing we had Emma to run the show made us feel 100% better.
We were lucky enough to hire her just as she was starting her business (though she had an extensive event planning background beforehand), but honestly, she is more than worth the price she charges for her services now. Bottom line, hire her - she's amazing!

When I started the wedding planning process I knew right away that I would need help on the day of the wedding with helping my vision come to life. By the time I met Emma I had already planned the majority of my wedding but hired her for month of coordination. Our original plan was to get married June 27th, 2020 but unfortunately we had to postpone our reception to June 25th, 2021 due to COVID-19. Emma checked in with us throughout the entire pandemic and following year going above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. She is everything you could ask for in a wedding planner; organized, detail oriented, timely, and just a friendly human being you want to be around.

When the month of our wedding finally arrived Emma continued to be there every step of the way to answer my questions, contact vendors, plan timelines, and to pick of items from my house (which is over an hour away from her and she always offered to bring me Starbucks!).

On our wedding day Emma was there bright and early to check in with me and my bridal party. Emma had brought her steamer and steamed not only my wedding dress but also my bridesmaids! She proceeded to then make my Lace Factory wedding vision a reality. I'm a type A person and Emma set up everything EXACTLY how I envisioned. I was able to enjoy every second of my ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, because of Emma! We received so many compliments on the carefree, happy, and loving vibe we had in the room!

At the end of the night Emma packed up all of our day of items, gifts, flowers, and food, and brought it back to our hotel. Again, she went above and beyond and if I could give Emma a million stars I would :)
