INCREDIBLE wedding planner

Genette was indispensable in planning our wedding. She coordinated a number of difficult vendors and kept us on track with our planning needs. She helped us find a few last-minute vendors we had overlooked and was attentive to our families as well. Her day-of service was incredible and she and her husband both went well out of their way to take care of any issues that cropped up during the wedding itself. Overall, Genette offers fantastic, valuable services and is an absolute pleasure to work with.

Great Planner

We hired genette to plan our wedding at A Private Estate, in Germantown. She did a fantastic job, and made sure that the day of our wedding we just got to enjoy everything and have fun. Getting a wedding planner was not something I had originally thought we would do, but I am so happy that we did! She's very responsive and on top of it.

My son and Meghan were married at Private Estate in Germantown last week. I, being a Germantown resident ,wanted to keep the venders as local as possible to support them. Genette’s name was suggested to me and I ran with it. I knew from my 1st conversation with her that it was going in a positive direction. I was so impressed with her enthusiasm and her organizational skills. She was a readily available with any questions. There were a few minor bumps in the road which were easily resolved. Her directions were very clear and precise, without any doubt about it. She was on top of things from keeping in touch with the venue, the caterer, the flowers, the DJ, and worked very well with Jack. She never left us all day Thursday and Friday, the day of the wedding. To top it all off she is having her baby this week, never once did she give anything but 100% to all of us, for that I am so thankful! Highly recommend her❤️

Best wedding planner ever!

Gennette is absolutely amazing! Because of her, my wedding day was completely stress free. From organizing my crazy (the good kind of crazy) bridal party, decorating everything, contacting all vendors and resolving any issues, communicating with me or my mother in law frequently for months before, to making sure I was watered (pictured below is her dispensing a shot of water for me) and fed the whole day (which is a lot harder than you think). Even organizing all of our things after the wedding so pick up was a breeze the next day! She’s the sweetest person and she was such a joy to work with. Did I mention She did all of this while 8 months pregnant? She’s a freaking rockstar. I will never be able to thank her enough for everything she did for us. ❤️

At the end March of this year, my husband and I bought a foreclosed horse farm, took on the task of renovating it and for some reason thought it would be a good idea to simultaneously plan a wedding to be held there in 6 months.Thankfully, Genette agreed to join in on this crazy endeavor and I honestly cannot put into words how amazing she was! She offered innovative ideas, created special decorations, had an extensive network of great vendors, was extremely responsive and was always positive and calming when I was ready to jump off the deep end. Most importantly, she was beyond dedicated and simply happy to help with any task, even if it included shoveling out our barn that sat vacant for 4 years! Our wedding would not have been possible without Genette and we cannot thank her and the rest of the team at Germantown Farms! Hire her! :)

Genette is wonderful! She is professional, knowledgeable, and organized. I had an outdoor farm wedding. The wedding went perfectly and all the guests were thrilled! It would not have been possible to pull this off without Genette! She has experience with farm weddings, which require extra preparation and planning. Her spreadsheet with all the details of my wedding was very impressive! She thought of things that I never would have thought of. If you are thinking about having a farm wedding, please hire a coordinator, and please hire a coordinator with farm wedding experience - you will be glad you did! On my wedding day, everyone remarked at how calm I was. That was because Genette was taking care of all the details! Without her, I would have been frantic and frazzled; there is just so much to think about and coordinate with an outdoor farm wedding. Genette handled everything with poise and professionalism. My wedding would not have been a success without her! I cannot recommend her highly enough!
