Working with Brenda as a Vendor

Working with Brenda as a vendor was truly wonderful. She was incredibly organized, thoughtful in every detail, and always one step ahead which made the entire day feel smooth and stress free for everyone involved. Her communication was clear, her presence was calm, and she handled every moment with such grace. Collaborating with someone who cares so deeply about her couples and their experience makes all the difference, and Brenda brought that energy from start to finish. I would be happy to work with her again anytime.

Amazing Wedding Planning-Start to Finish!

Brenda & her team were the smartest investment we could have ever made for our wedding day! She was so responsive and helpful through all of the planning. My fiancé teases that she dealt with our “crazy” flawlessly 🤣 She made my vision come to life and I am so thankful. We were very unique in our timeline and had an extremely LONG wedding day and she still made it happen. I would 100% recommend her, the value in her work is so worth it!!

Made our day easy and stress free

Brenda is truly so talented, but more importantly, she is kind. She made our day run so smoothly and really listened to what mattered to me and applied it so thoughtfully. I didn't have any worries on my wedding day and that is due entirely to her talent and care. We came to Brenda through a recommendation when our original coordinator backed out and my only regret is we did not hire Brenda sooner!!

Blissful Wedding Day

Weddings are expensive these days and often stressful to plan. Hiring Brenda was absolutely the best decision we made! She was on top of everything from the beginning and always quick to respond when things cropped up, as they always do!
We thoroughly enjoyed the day of the wedding because we knew she had everything under control! I could not recommend her more highly!

Above and Beyond

I had the best experience working with Brenda. We discovered her through friends who were using her for their wedding. After the wedding we got her business card and the rest was history. Brenda is so thorough and organized. She hooked us up with some amazing vendors per her recommendation and we could not have been happier. As our day of coordinator, she hit the ground running 30 days out and by the wedding, everything was taken care of. She gave us the freedom to really enjoy our wedding day and even checked in after to make sure deposits were returned and we were taken care of. The best use of our budget was Brenda. She is so cool and thoughtful. She is experienced and knows what she’s doing. I am forever grateful for her energy and support. My day was perfect because of her and her team.

Awesome wedding planner

Brenda is sharp! As soon as I met her, I knew I could relax and she would make everything happen. She thought of everything, reminded us of things we forgot and filled in gaps that we hadn’t even thought of. I would highly recommend her to plan your wedding. She is fantastic!

Fantastic Day! Brenda is awesome!

Brenda was my wedding coordinator and my wedding designer. I couldn’t have been more thrilled at how beautifully she transformed our space into a romantic and magical space. Brenda is a professional, she worked and coordinated with all of our vendor and handled them with exacting detail. I could not have imagined a more perfect day. I got to experience and enjoy my day because I knew she had it all covered. Our day was perfection thanks to Brenda and her team!

Our day would not have been so special without her. She handled everything and managed all the details. This woman is the best! She saw and made my vision a reality and the best day ever!

McKenna and Davis Wedding

Our wedding was an amazing, fun, and most of all a memorable night for everyone involved and we seriously couldn't have done any of that without Brenda. Throughout our entire planning process, a month out, rehearsal day, and the wedding day Brenda was there to help ease our concerns and ensure all questions were answered. She went out of her way multiple times to help us in the months before and was always available for a quick text or call. She tied everything together brilliantly and made our special day the best it could have ever been. We had a rough vision for our reception and ceremony and Brenda took it to the next level with all of the special attention to details and made sure that everything was perfect.

McKenna and I both highly, highly recommend Brenda to help plan and ensure that your special day goes just as perfect as ours!

Brenda is AMAZING!!!

Brenda and her team went above and beyond to ensure that our day was perfect and special in every single way! Also, throughout the process she took extra steps to keep us on track and help us find vendors to prepare for the day! We LOVED working with Brenda!

Amazing!

Brenda was without a doubt, the best investment into our wedding! She was recommended to us by one of our other vendors and her and her team were an essential piece in making sure that our big day went smoothly. Our wedding was on the smaller side with about 70 guests total in attendance and our venue had two main locations, one for the ceremony and the other for the reception. Brenda was truly able to relieve all of the stress and worrying from my husband and I on our wedding day and that alone is worth every penny. Her and her team were a delight to work with, we would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

WOW! Where to even begin with Brenda and her team! Brenda is the kind of person you want at your wedding when one of those "OH MY GOD WE FORGOT THE...." or the "I DONT KNOW WHERE... IS" Brenda (and her staffs) professionalism is incredible! She was in what it seems five places at one time! One second she was briefing the photographers, while assisting the florist, while repairing the cake, while tracking down wedding party. She’s the kind of person you'd see in a movie directing a MAJOR Hollywood Wedding making sure everything was done to perfection. Brenda is the kind of honest American who when hired is looking out for YOUR best interest. She knows the in’s and out’s of the industry to know when vendors are trying to take advantage of you, and makes sure she gets you the best while maintaining your budget and goal in mind! Organization is one of the keys to a successful wedding. Multiple weeks out she was in touch with me going over details that only I thought were important. We went over the timeline on multiple occasions. She assisted on helping us design a custom light scene for their wedding. She ask questions no other wedding vendors have asked, it shows she is a true professional and is beyond dedicated to her clients. If your thinking about hiring ANYONE for helping you create and execute a true dream wedding, I would put our reputation on the line to say "Creations by Brenda" is the company you need to go with.

Vanessa & Angel's Wedding - 10/23/2010 This past weekend our Wedding Photo Booth sent us to the Farmington Fire Hall in Egg Harbor, NJ for the Wedding of Vanessa & Angel. Although the phrase Fire Hall doesn’t speak the words “Elegant” and “Beautiful” that one would associate with a Wedding atmosphere, the Farmington Fire Hall (also kno...wn as the Charles A. Maxwell Banquet Hall) was dare I say ….”Exquisite”.

This was mostly due to the efforts of the Wedding Planner Brenda Lambert Rivera (aka Creations By Brenda) who created an incredible Fall Theme under the moniker “Fall … In Love”………brown table cloth, tan chairs, orange flower centerpieces, with orange and brown leaves as center pieces. The room had supplied dim lighting and candlelight to set the mood.

We didn’t have a chance to get fed being how popular the photobooth was, but we were offered, and Brenda checked up on us and got us drinks which she didn’t have to being that a Wedding Planner is usually the busiest person at a Wedding
