I'm very happy we decided to go with Mari as our wedding planner for our June wedding. From the very beginning, Mari was thoughtful, professional, and fully supportive of our vision. She was always present, reliable, and responsive to our needs every step of the way. I appreciated her meticulous attention to detail and also her ability to help problem solve various decisions we made as we approached our wedding day. Mari fully embraced and helped us combine our different religious and cultural backgrounds in ways that worked for us. I would recommend her without reservation and am glad we chose her to be a part of our special day!

I’ve partnered with Mari on several projects for my custom menswear business in both New York and Washington, DC — and I honestly wish I had met her when I was planning my own wedding. Mari is incredibly creative, super professional, and a true joy to work with.

She consistently puts the needs of her couples first, and it’s obvious she genuinely loves what she does. She also has an incredible vendor network: talented people who are also simply good humans. Mari is highly communicative and detail-oriented — having all of these qualities in one package is rare. I’m excited to keep partnering with her (especially as she expands into New York) and would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding or special event.

Absolutely fantastic and very detail oriented. Very involved at the time of the wedding and very inquisitive. Thank you for making our day stress free! It was a big plus that she is bilingual.

Mari was amazing to work with on my wedding! I was having a small wedding but decided I needed someone to handle day of coordination. Not only did she handle logistics/coordination but so much more. She gave good insight and guidance when I wasn't sure about some decisions and was super supportive. She really helped me pull things together. I highly recommend her for your wedding planning/coordination!

Wow! Mari and Kat are wonderful. They made our wedding week and wedding day seamless, beautiful, and fun. They made sure every last detail went according to plan. Kat did an especially good job with the rehearsal, which led to an absolutely perfect ceremony. And at the end of the night, all of the leftover food, our items, everything was packed and ready to go. I highly recommend!

Mari is IT. My husband and I met with a handful of coordinators who all seemed qualified and capable, but none that seemed to vibe with our energy UNTIL we met Mari! Right away she was calming and tuned in and warm. She felt like someone we would hang out with but then make that person an organizational wizard.As first time wedders, who had never imagined a specific wedding day aesthetic or theme, we would frequently worry this whole thing might not come together. But IT DID under Mari's expert guidance! And not only was it a big success (imo) she also never made us feel dumb or wrong or like bad engaged people for breaking tradition or for asking if we need Welcome signs. Mari was very good about holding us to our deadlines but not hounding us. When we felt like we were months behind she assured us we were in a good place.And then the day of the wedding, Mari and Anjeanette, were like the 1992 US Men's Olympic basketball team! Just two pros moving seamlessly, never missing. If we had a question, they had the answer before we asked. I always wondered how weddings happen without the bride and groom being pulled in every direction. Elle Events is how.

Mari did an incredible job with our wedding! We hired her for coordination services. She handled vendor communication in the run-up to the event (including confirming plans with each vendor when details were changed), made everything go smoothly and perfectly on the day itself, and even packed up the extra alcohol for us to pick up the next day. She oversaw the set-up and clean-up with our DJ, florist, caterer, etc., and she came to our rehearsal to go over details with our officiant. She made everything worry-free, and we had a really beautiful wedding. I can't say enough about how great she was. Very happy we hired Elle Events, and highly recommend them to others!

We are so thankful for Mari! She made immediate adjustments based on our or vendors’ needs, had such a calming presence, and helped ensure everything went smoothly on our wedding day.
