Elite Events helped us plan our dream wedding!

Elite Events made our dream wedding day come true!! Hannah, Cindy and their team gave us the smoothest wedding planning experience we could have ever imagined. They were there to guide us every step of the way and made the whole experience fun! Not only are they the best of the best, they are very well respected in the industry. They had access to all of the best vendors and had a relationship with each vendor they recommended. We were blown away with the list of vendors that Hannah provided to us and were so thankful for her guidance on choosing the ones that were best for us. Hannah took the time to learn our style and listen to our visions! She is so organized and kept us on track with a detailed timeline and wedding budget. We never imagined how fun planning a wedding could be until we started working with Hannah. We are forever grateful for Elite Events and would recommend them over and over again!!

Absolutely incredible!

Elite events went ABOVE AND BEYOND planning our wedding. They were professional yet relatable and flexible. We planned a wedding in 6 months and it turned out better than we ever could have dreamed. From planning to execution each step went without a hitch (that we were aware of!!) Elite events took the stress out of wedding planning and made it a fun enjoyable experience.

A fabulous experience with a fabulous planner!

We had a spectacular experience working with Elite Events for our "first night" wedding events, which included a Rehearsal Dinner for 50 followed by a Welcome Party for over 200 guests. Hannah and her team were true professionals -- creative, thorough, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Every detail was beautifully thought out and expertly coordinated. Hannah took our vision and seamlessly added thoughtful elements that improved and elaborated it, making the night truly special. From the delicious food, stunning florals, customized leather menus, colorful acrylic signage and fun extras including monogrammed throw pillows, a Bourbon bar and fabulous entertainment, both events were more than we had hoped for. Held on a rooftop overlooking Pike's Market in downtown Seattle, Hannah even arranged for the Great Wheel to customize it's lights to coordinate with our color schematic. It was fabulous! From start to finish, it was a wonderful experience working with Elite Events!

Amazing Wedding Planner!

Hannah and the Elite Events team went above and beyond to make our New Year's Eve wedding the most amazing night of our lives! Every detail was executed to perfection and our vision truly came to life in a way that I did not even know was possible. They made the wedding planning process easy and enjoyable and I would love to have the opportunity to work together again in the future!

Miracle worker, and during a pandemic, too!

Hannah at Elite Events made our dream wedding come true! With a year-long delay and a sudden slam of seemingly everyone in Seattle getting married at once in second half of '21 due to the pandemic, Hannah and her team were able to navigate serious obstacles thrown their way while keeping us calm and updated. Her relationships with local vendors were strong and she knew some tradecraft tips, like "hire a better band for cheaper from Portland" and ties to the best flower vendors. She had fantastic attention to detail with plenty of patience for our particular asks.

Wedding planner of your dreams

I absolutely would recommend Elite Events to any bride. Elite Events truly embraces your vision while also enhancing it. Not only are they extremely creative and resourceful, they are also extremely organized and efficient. The truth is, the process of creating your perfect day can be so overwhelming, confusing, and time consuming, but Elite Events makes your experience effortless, enjoyable, and extremely understandable. Every step of the process is extremely transparent so you always know what you should be doing to prepare, what they are doing to prepare, how much everything costs, and the quantity and quality of things you'll be receiving on your big day. They truly cover all your bases. Not to mention, that each member of their team is so sweet, understanding, and flexible, while maintaining strong worth ethics, and never letting you feel taken advantage of by the bridal industry.
I truly had the picture perfect day on my wedding, and I attribute a lot of that to Elite Events. I would highly recommend them to any bride, but especially those who want to souly focus on the joys of their wedding and their engagement. I honestly miss working with them, but can't wait to see all the beautiful weddings they continue to bring to life!

The Best of the Best!

If you want the best of the best of the best, you have to hire Elite Events! This is the second wedding my family has used Elite Events for, and we could not recommend Hannah and her team enough. Not only is Hannah a lovely person, but working with her was so seamless and fun! Planning our wedding was smooth and stress-free from start to finish. Not only is Hannah excellent, but so are her vendors and contacts she recommends to work with as well. Everyone we hired throughout the process was exceptional and truly helped make our day one for ages. My husband and I both had a great time throughout the entire experience and would recommend her time and time again. Our guests were blown away by this wedding, and it was all thanks to this fantastic team! To Hannah and your team, thank you so much to each of you for all you did to make our dream day come alive! It was better than we could have ever imagined and we couldn’t have done it without you!

Elite Events is Amazing!

Hannah's expertise was evident throughout the entire wedding planning process. She knows the ins and outs of the industry and we always felt like we were in the best possible hands. We could not have been more pleased with our experience and there was no way we could have done it without her!

Hannah and Cindy helped put on an amazing bridal shower for me this past summer. Since my wedding was postponed until next year, we held a small wedding shower with our closest family and friends in the Seattle area. Hannah and Cindy used all the Covid measures to keep me, my fiancé, and our small group safe. They used gloves when handling glassware, utensils, and plates, which I was grateful for. They are seriously an amazing team and I couldn’t have asked for a better event team. They went above and beyond. Cindy came up with the theme of our event and it was a hit! She thought it would be sentimental and cute if we had a “Something borrowed, something blue, something old” theme. Guests were notified to bring something that fit the theme and present it to us as gifts. A lot of laughs, tears, and sharing of embarrassing moments throughout the night. Thank you, Hannah and Cindy, for making my bridal shower amazing despite the global pandemic!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
