A Truly Magical Wedding!

When we decided to follow our dreams and started planning our Space Dragon wedding - Ceremony in the Planetarium and reception in the Lost World of Dragons exhibit of the museum - it didn't take long for us to realize we needed help!
I called many planners, and Terri instantly impressed me with her knowledge, communication skills, and competence. She respected my budget and gave me plenty of tips to get the most bang for my buck!
My wedding was so magical and Terri kept everything running so smoothly. All of my guests had an amazing time, and my vendors and wedding party were so impressed with her. I will be forever thankful!

Perfection

Terri truly grasped my vision and then helped make it 100x better than I could have ever imagined. My wedding was on private property so everything had to be brought in and set up from scratch. She introduced me to the most amazing vendors (within my budget too), saved me from bad decisions, and handled hurtles like a total pro so that I didn't have to. I had no idea how much work went into weddings. My wedding day was effortless and fun perfection but only because Terri made it that way.

Hiring Terri as my planner was, hands down, the best decision I made after getting engaged. She is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, organized, professional and goes above and beyond for her couples. From the very beginning, we had no doubt that we were in great hands. She always had things under control, and made sure we were moving at the right pace during the planning process. The wedding turned out flawless. I didn't have to worry about a thing. I couldn't have asked for anything more. She and her team were absolutely incredible and I am forever grateful to her for orchestrating our special day so beautifully.

Terri is the BEST! Terri was so helpful in every single category. Before we booked Terri we witnessed her run the show at my sister's wedding. After that day we just knew we needed and wanted Terri for our wedding day. We would meet once a month and go over items that needed to be completed. With Terri's guidance I was able to get through many tasks. Also a very huge help was Terri reviewed all of our contracts and also recommended other vendors that would reduce some costs. From keeping in contact with our vendors to help putting the boutonnieres on the groom and bridal party. You name it she was there for us. Terri's timeline was also a huge key for our wedding day. I feel as Terri really went over and beyond for us and I know because of her it was a perfect day. Thank you so much Terri for everything!

I would highly recommend Terri for wedding planning. Our monthly meetings leading up to the wedding always made me feel so much less stressed and kept me on track. She also connected me to great vendors that I wouldn't have otherwise known about. Anytime I had questions and emailed her, she always responded within a reasonable amount of time. The day ran very smoothly. I actually had to cancel the rehearsal because I injured my foot and had to go to the doctor the day before the wedding, and she handled contacting the venue and the minister to let them know. Our wedding was so amazing, and a lot of that had to do with Terri helping to make it all come together.

I have been a wedding photographer for years and I thought I knew what was involved in planning a wedding. I even knew exactly what my vision was, where my venue would be and what vendors I would have and I still had no idea what was involved in getting everything together. Terri was my life saver! I could not have done it without her. She literally made our day beyond perfect. Grateful doesn't even cover it! Since my wedding, my sister has hired her as well and sent me a message yesterday that said:" Terri is worth every penny." If you want exceptional service, personal attention and to save your sanity call her today!!! I promise you won't regret it!

There are no words to express the amazing talent, expertise, and professionalism Terri Gilbreath and her wedding coordination company - G.G. Events - provided to create the wedding of my dreams.

I first met Terri over the phone in April 2013 (one year prior to my wedding date). Since I live in Miami and planned to have my wedding in Jacksonville, I knew I needed the help of a wedding coordinator to plan everything long distance. Throughout the entire wedding planning process, Terri was so lovely, patient, and responsive to every single need and/or question I asked of her. Initially, I was concerned about the availability of having a wedding coordinator located so far away, but working with Terri made me feel like we lived in the same city. The reassurance she would provide and her passion for wedding planning was eminent throughout every conversation.

Terri also introduced me to the BEST vendors in Jacksonville to create my vision. EVERY SINGLE VENDOR DID AN EXTRAORDINARY JOB. All the vendors were professional, responsive, and provided their services beyond expectations. Terri handled all the contracts and ensured everyone was informed of what, where, how, and when to get where they needed to be. Terri even helped us with our rehearsal dinner when our original venue plans fell through. Again, it was always above and beyond with Terri.

Terri worked endless, tirelessly, and efficiently during the days leading up to the wedding to direct and help with the vendor delivery and setup of each rental item. Upon arriving at my own wedding, I was blown away by the elegance, beauty, and perfection of the event. Terri had carried out my version exactly how I had imagined it.

I cannot praise Terri and her company enough for all of the hard work and love that was put into my wedding. I HIGHLY recommend G.G. Events to anyone seeking event coordination services. My experience was absolutely lovely and I do not have one negative thing to say about Terri or G.G. Events.

G.G. Events went above and beyond our expectations. There is no way our wedding would have been as amazing without G.G. Events. Having Terri as our wedding planner was truly the best decision we could have made. She made the planning stress-free and was able to meet with vendors when we couldn't. She focused on us and our needs and had wonderful recommendations and vendor requests. She made our wedding the most perfect day we could have ever imagined. She even did a lot of work behind the scenes to make the day absolutely amazing. There were numerous guests that informed us that our wedding was the most beautiful one they have ever been to. We know we owe this all to Terri and G.G. Events. She truly made our lives stress-free and the quality of her service was more than we could have ever asked for. Thank you so much G.G. Events for making our wedding day the best day of our lives. We cannot quit thinking about how beautiful of a setting it was and how perfect everything went. I would recommend G.G. Events to anyone who is having a wedding!

Kind Regards,

Shannon & Andrew

I am having a hard time summarizing the absolutely outstanding job Terri Gilbreath from G.G. Events did for our April wedding. Terri was a true blessing to have during the planning months, especially the day of the wedding. My husband and I highly recommend her services. Prior to the wedding I attempted to take on every task on myself thinking I would save us few dollars and attempt to be superwoman. As every bride and groom we wanted to stick to a certain budget. I am thankful that Terri was sent my way because she was a true angel. Truth is, Terri with her years of experience and vendor connections not only saves you money in the process but she really takes the worry out of every wedding task at hand. There was not one area that I talked to her about where she didn't have something to bring to the table. We had our reception at the Cummer Museum which meant that we had to contract every detail out such a linens, caterer, silverware, all decorations, you name it...and out of all the many vendors I worked with during the process, Terri is my #1 recommendation. I realized during the planning period that wedding vendors are not always most responsive but Terri was always readily available not only responding to my questions, calls and emails but also she was proactive reminding me of things and offering to take on tasks from me (may I add with a smile). Really I can't say enough good things about her. The day off the wedding truly goes by very quick and there were so many details that Terri took care of without me even knowing about it until days later. I'll end my review with my favorite thing about Terri which is that she was just as detail oriented as I was and as result ensured that my venue looked exactly as I envisioned.

I cannot say enough great things about Terri. She was incredible!! Terri went above and beyond for my husband and I and truly made our day absolutely perfect! Terri was extremely organzied and always had everything under control. From the days leading up to the wedding, to the set up and clean up - Terri was absolutely amazing! I don't know how she does it!! Thanks to all Terri did for us, my husband and I truly enjoyed every second of our wedding. We didn't have to worry about a thing! My entire bridal party said how incridible she was and how they wish they had her at their weddings! THANK YOU, Terri, for EVERYTHING!! Words can't express how grateful we are for all that you did for us.

We've had the pleasure of working with Terri several times, and she is quite possibly the most on-top-of-things planner I know. She goes out of her way to make her couples' lives easier both before, during and after the wedding. From a photographer's perspective, it's wonderful to work with a planner who understands and respects the amount of time we need to capture those key images for our brides and grooms, and Terri totally gets it. We can't wait until the next time we have the privilege of working with her again. She's simply awesome!

I certainly recommend G.G. Events. I love working with Terri because of her complete investment in every bride and groom. She makes their wishes priority and with her savvy negotiation and organization skills does everything possible to make every couple get their dream come true wedding. She is also very creative and resourceful which every bride needs during the planning process. My praise for her work and dedication could not be higher!
