Beyond obsessed!

Consider this a glowing review for Debbie and Mr. Debbie! When our original venue required us to hire a wedding planner, I was so excited to work with Debbie. Even from our first video call, I could tell she truly loves what she does and would be an absolute joy to work with. When disaster struck and our original venue didn’t work out… she was extremely flexible and helpful in finding a new venue. Communication was always spot on and she was always willing to chat even with our busy schedules.
During the weekend of the wedding, I received so many complements from everyone on how efficient and organized she is. It was such a relief having her and her hubby set everything up and not having to worry about anything so we could truly enjoy every moment. Every situation a bride doesn’t want to deal with was taken care of before I even knew about it.
Overall, DO NOT miss out on the opportunity to work with this lovely woman. I am absolutely so thankful for everything they did. If there is any moment in the future I would need a planner, Debbie is my girl! 💕

Incredible experience working with Debbie!

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner! To start, Debbie is incredibly knowledgeable about all the local vendors around Elk Rapids / Traverse City, ensuring we had the best options for our special day. She handled every unforeseen circumstance with grace and flexibility, always keeping things running smoothly and making the process fun along the way. It's clear Debbie genuinely loves what she does, and her passion for weddings made our experience stress-free and enjoyable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a hardworking and dedicated planner to make the wedding of their dreams come true!

Debbie and Beyond Eventful were amazing!

We absolutely loved working with Debbie! She helped us with our rehearsal dinner, wedding day, and farewell brunch. Debbie and her crew consistently went above and beyond to help us plan and carry out each event. She has great relationships with so many vendors and venues Up North and was absolutely ready to go to bat for us when any gave us trouble or inconsistent information. Likewise, on the day of the wedding Debbie and her team were superb and vital to us being able to have a beautiful day. We had inclement weather and Debbie made sure every alternative arrangement was in place on a compressed timeline. Debbie always seemed to strike the right balance of offering her own suggestions based on her expertise and deferring to our ideas throughout the whole process, and we could not recommend her more highly!
