In December 2025, we traveled to Anna Maria Island together with my parents. This year, they celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary — a truly special milestone. To surprise them, we planned a vow renewal ceremony on the beach of Anna Maria Island. For such an emotional and meaningful moment, we were looking for someone professional, reliable, and compassionate — and that’s exactly how we found Babette.

With her warm, genuine, and enthusiastic personality, she was the perfect choice from the very beginning. She didn’t just understand our vision, she brought it to life with so much heart and dedication that the ceremony became a truly unforgettable experience.

Dear Babette, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making this incredibly special moment possible. You gave my parents a priceless gift: a memory they will cherish forever. Thank you for everything!

m Dezember 2025 waren wir gemeinsam mit meinen Eltern auf Anna Maria Island. In diesem Jahr feierten sie ihren 60. Hochzeitstag – ein ganz besonderer Meilenstein. Um sie zu überraschen, planten wir eine Erneuerung ihres Eheversprechens am Strand von Anna Maria Island. Für diesen emotionalen Moment suchten wir eine professionelle, zuverlässige und einfühlsame Begleitung – und genau so sind wir auf Babette gestoßen.
Mit ihrer warmherzigen, authentischen und begeisternden Art war sie vom ersten Moment an die perfekte Wahl für uns. Sie hat unsere Idee nicht nur verstanden, sondern mit so viel Herz und Hingabe umgesetzt, dass daraus eine wahrhaft unvergessliche Zeremonie wurde.
Liebe Babette, von Herzen danke ich dir, dass du diesen so besonderen Moment für uns möglich gemacht hast. Du hast meinen Eltern ein Geschenk gemacht, das unbezahlbar ist: eine Erinnerung, die sie für immer in ihren Herzen tragen werden. Vielen Dank für alles!]

My husband Christopher and I had the pleasure of working with Babette and Mickey Hill a few years back. Our wedding took place on Longboat Key in September of 2022. Babette, a true visionary, managed to give us the wedding of our dreams with just 6 weeks of planning!

Working with Babette was incredibly easy right from the very beginning. She was quick to respond to all of the questions I had, which, given the limited time frame took all of the stress off of me. I gave Babette a couple of ideas for foliage and decor and she completely exceeded my expectations whilst keeping everything within budget. Still to this day, when I think about the first time I saw my bouquet, I want to cry because it was so beautiful. She’s also a rockstar photographer! I get compliments on our wedding photos constantly.

I was deeply saddened by Mickey’s passing. He brought so much life, love, and laughter to our special day. I treasure every one of our photos that capture his smile. Thank you Babette and Mickey…you are both forever in our hearts. Our wedding would not be what it was without you two ♥️♥️♥️

-Much love from Atlanta,

Babette went above and beyond making the proposal as smooth and as easy as possible. Quick responsive communication and could not be happier with the pictures.

Babette did a great Job! She was so nice and helpful. We love the pictures. She drove 2 hours to our location. We recommend her!!

Babette is amazing! She was so professional, organized and kind! My husband and I chose Babette because we wanted to elope on the beach in Florida! We had the perfect intimate wedding! Babette handled all of our paperwork, provided the officiant, let us choose our ceremony wording, provided beautiful flowers and an arch of our choosing and so much more! Our favorite was her photography! We have the most gorgeous photos of our special day!! And we got them back so quickly!

We had the most amazing experience with Babette and Mickey Hill at Events and More Dream Weddings. Being from Connecticut, we were anticipating a challenge, planning a wedding all the way in Miami. But the Hills were amazing….from planning the wedding with all of our special requests, to their patience and flexibility throughout the process, to orchestrating the most special beachside ceremony of our dreams, we were so happy with the results! Our photos were amazing and we have the most special memories to last a lifetime.

Being from the UK we were anxious about arranging a beach wedding far from home, but from the start Babette's calm nature made us feel like we were in safe hands. And on the day it showed - when storms rained us off, she moved our location elsewhere and made it magical!

Unserer lieben Babette und Mickey
Am 08.08.22 begann für unser ein Traum wahr zu werden – ein sehr professioneller und liebevoller Kontakt begann schon Monate zuvor und schnell wussten wir, dass wir uns bei Lifestyle Weddings -Events and More- an den Traumständen in Florida im Hochzeitsparadies
das Ja-Wort geben werden.

Die Trauung am Strand lässt alle Wünsche wahr werden und mit Babettes einfühlsamen, professionellen und sehr herzlichen Art sowie die Trauung durch Mickey lies keine Wünsche offen. Einmal dieses Gefühl erleben und nie wieder vergessen – Nach kurzer Zeit erreichten uns die Bilder unserer Hochzeit in Deutschlad und wir waren SPRACHLOS.. Wunderschoene Momente hatte Babette hier eingefangen. Wir haben hier die BESTE ENTSCHEIDUNG fuer unsere Hochzeit getroffen und Erinnerungen erhalten die uns ein Leben lang begleiten werden. VIELEN DANK IHR LIEBEN... Angela und Detlef

If you are looking for warm, caring, attentive yet professional wedding planners, Babette and Mickey are 100% the right choice! We wanted a simple, romantic beach wedding on Sanibel Island, Florida and Babette and Mickey made a dream come true. It was unforgettable. Mickey brought tears of joy to our faces with his ceremony.

We are so happy and thankful that we chose them.

Spontan haben wir haben wir uns entschieden, in unserem USA - Urlaub zu heiraten. Babette und ihr Mann machten dies spontan möglich! Top Kommunikation und gutes Zusammenspiel führten zu einer traumhaften Hochzeit am Strand. Mit Esprit und Humor wurden die gemeinsamen Stunden verbracht. Wer also einen guten Weeding - Planet sucht: hier seid ihr komplett richtig! Danke für alles!!
