Absolutely Amazing

Emily was able to make my vision come to life, then some. I am honestly blown away by some of the things she was able to make happen. She took my terrible description of something I wanted and somehow knew exactly what I meant. She made my entire day so much better and I don't know what I would have done without her.

Couldn't be happier!!

Emily is incredibly sweet, friendly, efficient, and responsible! We used the wedding management package and I’m so glad we did. Since our first call, I felt so comfortable with her. She was patient, thorough, responsive, and organized throughout the planning process. She helped with coordinating all of our vendors and making sure everyone was on the same page to ensure our day ran smoothly. She was so calming and fun on our wedding day! Having her there allowed me to be fully present throughout the day, knowing that she was on top of everything! Shannon made sure everything was just perfect for when we arrived to our reception venue. They were the most incredible team and I’m so glad they were part of our day!

Amazing planner!

Emily is just wonderful. She is so helpful, willing to handle anything I needed her to. We planned our wedding 3 times (rescheduled once, then moved venues once) and she managed all the details for me just perfectly. She is super kind and easy to get in contact with. At the wedding, she made sure everything went smoothly, and the things that didn’t, she fixed immediately. Couldn’t ask for a better planner!

So much pressure off my shoulders!

Emily was so helpful from the get go. She is so down to earth, kind, organized, punctual, and will support you and stick up for you. Emily was there for us for a tour of both our venues, our rehearsal and on our wedding day. The day went so smoothly because of her, even with the rain and outdoor venue. So so happy we hired Emily so we could enjoy the day and have all the planning be easier.

Look no further!

If you’re wondering whether you should hire Emily or not, this is your sign to do it! It is 100% worth it. Emily helped with timeline, day of decor (putting up and taking down), putting out small fires, helping with ceremony timing, and coordination between vendors. I definitely recommend! She was very friendly, prompt, and professional.

Perfect from start to finish!

Working with Emily and the Events by Emily team was such a wonderful experience from start to finish! We got the partial planning package, and Emily was an invaluable resource (and cheerleader!) during the entire process. Not only did she work with us as a couple, she also worked with my mother in law to plan some really awesome handmade decorations for the escort card display and dance floor. Emily coordinated SO much for us behind the scenes and took a TON of stress off of our plates. She was also a great source of advice for what we wanted to focus our effort and resources on to get the biggest bang for our buck and make sure everything was cohesive. Emily was also helpful with little questions that don’t come up until you’re planning a wedding, like the order of the first dance/cake cutting/etc. The day of the wedding was an absolute breeze and Emily and her team did an incredible job to make everything run smoothly! They made sure we had cocktails (and lots of water since it was a hot day), as well as appetizers so we didn’t miss out. Overall, working with Emily and her team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day, and we loved working with her!

Amazing service by an amazing person.

Emily was our wedding planner/day-of coordinator. She was an incredible help to us and we couldn't have done it without her! We really appreciated how on top of things she was. She was able to keep everything organized and she relieved so much stress and worry from our already busy lives. She made us feel confident that our wedding would go smoothly. She also gave helpful suggestions and tips, and was the main contact for our vendors.
Wedding planning is difficult and stressful, so we were very thankful to have Emily there to make it an easier and more enjoyable experience!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
