Save yourself the headache, book Gina!

Gina makes the wedding planning process not just bearable, but fun! Every time we talked with her and went over plans we felt a weight lift off our shoulders. She is very organized, timely and creative. Gina managed to corral our crazy, loud, and fun wedding party so that the wedding ran smoothly and everything happened on time. Having inclusive wedding vendors was very important for us, we are so happy we found that in Gina. If you are questioning whether or not you need a wedding planner, you do. It will allow you to focus on the important things and be present during your special day. We cannot recommend Gina enough!

Gina delivered our perfect day !

Gina was the ideal partner in bringing our wedding to life. There were so many details, moving pieces, and decisions along the way, and she truly allowed me to express my full vision and personality in every aspect of the day. She took what I imagined and helped turn it into something real, and ultimately, something even more beautiful than I could have expected.

Planning a wedding isn’t always easy, and there were moments along the way that felt overwhelming, but the end result was absolutely perfect. It genuinely could not have been more magical or more “us.” It was the dreamiest day, and that’s what matters most.

Gina is extremely professional, responsive, and organized. She was always quick to reply, which made such a difference throughout the process. She consistently offered support and guidance, and her structured approach (including monthly check-ins and planning tools) helped keep everything on track.

On the wedding day itself, her presence was exactly what you want in a planner. She’s assertive, making sure everything runs smoothly, everyone is where they need to be, and nothing falls through the cracks (especially if a big rain storm comes through right before the wedding!).

What stood out most is that she really got my vision. That was so clear in how everything came together. Come in with ideas and communicate what you want, and she will help bring it to life.

I’m so grateful for her role in creating a wedding that felt so personal, joyful, and unforgettable. Thank you Gina!!!

Gina brings fairytales to life

To say that Gina is amazing is truly an understatement. She brought our dream wedding to life. It was an absolute fairytale and still feels so surreal. From the onset, she was the most organized person I’ve met and maintains an unmatched attention to detail. She is a composer and the wedding is her symphony. She communicated effectively and efficiently with every single vendor to insure we were all on the same page about the final vision. I explained my vision to her initially and she immediately began putting things together to make it perfect. She was there for the rehearsal and even helped set up the venue for the rehearsal dinner. Gina and her team were present for the entirety of the wedding and handled every hiccup before I even heard about it. We had an outdoor wedding and I decided against the tent even though there was a decent chance of rain and she did everything in her power to make sure it would be okay if it did rain. Luckily it did not rain! Through Gina, every part of the wedding planning and the wedding itself was magic. I could not recommend her and her entire team enough.

Gina is THE best decision I made for my wedding.

Gina was truly AMAZING. From the very beginning, she was so organized and attentive that I never had to worry about a single thing. She anticipated every detail, kept everything running seamlessly, and made sure my vision came to life exactly as I imagined it. BETTER than I could have imagined. Having her by my side gave me such peace of mind throughout the entire process. She not only executed flawlessly, but also supported me personally every step of the way. Thanks to her, I was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment of my wedding day. I could not recommend her enough!

Hiring Gina was the best decision we could have made!

Hiring Gina was truly the best decision we made during our wedding planning process. We were so overwhelmed when we started planning, there were so many details to consider and at times it felt like too much to handle. Then from our very first introductory call with Gina, I felt a sense of calmness from her that helped us so much. She is so organized and on top of every detail. Any time I would panic or get overwhelmed we would schedule a call and she would take the time to walk through every question or concern I had and I left every call with such a sense of relief. When wedding day finally came, I did not have to think about a single wedding detail. I had full trust that she would be on top of everything, and she was! Our wedding went without a single hiccup and my husband and I were able to fully enjoy our special day. We are so grateful that we had her help and support through it all! I can confidently say that this wedding would not have happened without Gina, she made this day everything we had dreamed of!

Best Wedding Planner EVER

Gina,

I don’t even have words to express how thankful I am for you and how I already miss our chats and plans for our wedding. It was the best day of my life, thus far, and I owe it to you!!!

1. How would you rate your overall experience with Gina Marie Weddings & Events

100000/10 - amazing from start to finish


2. Was there anything that stood out to you when it came to working with GME?

How just on the ball Gina is. She is so organized, outspoken for me, honest and reliable. I was easily able to put my full trust in Gina for every and any detail of our wedding. I knew it would get done and be beautiful - and it was stunning.


3. When you were looking to hire a wedding planner, what were some of the things that were most important to you?

I thought I could do it all myself and I’m so happy I didn’t. My friend referred Gina to me and I’m so thankful I was able to snag her, as I know she is extremely wanted! Gina took all the stress away the moment I had my first call with her! I wanted to be able to enjoy the process and day, and Gina exceeded my expectations! All of my vendors knew Gina and spoke so highly of her, which just validated what I already thought - she’s brilliant at what she does!

4. How did GME help meet/exceed those requirements?

She remembered every little detail from what flowers we needed to add to our reception to perfectly bustling my dress. She is a perfectionist and will be honest with what you’ll need depending on wants and desires for your wedding. Incredible team on the day of and just goes above and beyond. I felt like her only bride, which I know I was far from. She made me always feel heard, responded to my crazy emails instantly and felt like a friend throughout all of the planning. I truly looked forward to every wedding decision with Gina by my side. I trust her judgement fully and suggest her to everyone getting married. My day was more perfect than I had imagined!


THANK YOU GINA!!! I’m tearing up typing this

Gina is perfection

Words cannot describe how in love I am with Gina and her work. Our wedding was beautiful and the most stress free process all because of Gina. GME was the absolute best decision I made during wedding planning. She understands your vision to a T and adds in hints to make it your own. Gina is absolutely amazing as a wedding planner and as a person. Her entire process is ridiculously organized and easy. Gina communicates everything so well and concisely, never missed a deadline or detail. All the vendors Gina recommended were just as perfect and matched our vibe. When multiple people asked me (a very Type A person for work) why I was so chill during the entire year of planning, all I said was that I had Gina. At the end of the night, my husband and I looked at each other and both said how grateful we were for Gina and everything she did from start to finish. Nothing would have been done without her. Trust her with your wedding day and you’ll never regret it.

Gina is the best

My husband and I were absolutely blown away by Gina. From the moment we met her, we felt at ease. Gina cool as a cucumber, unbelievably helpful, proactive, communicative, a consummate professional and so incredibly thorough. She kept us organized throughout our wedding planning process, managed relationships with our vendors with her strong industry relationships, and went completely above and beyond to remove stress from us and ensure our day went smoothly. On our weekend, it was truly amazing to see her in action and she made sure that our huge bridal party and families knew where to be. Gina is a talented creative and her vision helped us make our day so beautiful. She also has so much experience in this field, where she was able to advise us around worth it investments to help us make the most out of our budget.

Above all, Gina is kind, genuine, fun and funny, and it was truly pleasure working with her and getting to know her! I miss our calls and feel so so grateful we crossed paths!! Thank you for everything Gina, we love you!

Best choice we've made (aside from getting married)

I cannot recommend Gina enough. She is the secret weapon to navigating an otherwise stressful process, and she makes it all feel manageable. Before Gina, we felt extremely overwhelmed and in way over our heads. As soon as we met Gina, she was a breath of fresh air and we immediately felt reassured. She emphasized that this time was about us, and made sure it felt that way. She also made sure we were able to stay true to who we are as a couple while ensuring we had the wedding of our dreams. Gina is experienced and extremely organized, and it very much shows. She makes you feel like you’re the only clients she has because she is just THAT responsive and on top of everything (my wife had to ask her several times how she has other clients with the level of attention Gina gave us). We never had to worry about details because Gina had already thought of everything and had a plan (and a contingency plan) for every scenario. Gina truly listens and has a genuine interest in accommodating both your needs and your wants. If you have an idea, Gina will find a way to make it happen. No idea is too small or too "out there." Most of all, Gina is that calm presence that you absolutely need on your big day. There is no better feeling than knowing there is nothing to worry about, and that Gina has taken care of everything. If there were any fires actively being extinguished, we would have had no idea because the entire day went so smoothly. Gina is a rock, a friend, and the most valuable asset you can have on your wedding day. If we could clone Gina and give her to every couple, we absolutely would!

The best wedding planner ever!

Gina… I don’t know where to begin… I truly feel like anything I write won’t do you justice, but I’m going to try my best and give it a go:

First and foremost, THANK YOU. Thank you for your dedication and passion, thank you for your endless back-and-forth emails; thank you for the constant reassurance; thank you for your patience; thank you for being the best damn wedding planner. Although, you were more than our wedding planner….. You were our North Star. Our sanity. Our cheerleader. And our friend.

Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude for GME…. We thank our lucky stars that we found you, the most extraordinary wedding planner and genuinely amazing human being, who turned our dream wedding into a breathtaking reality.

From the moment we met Gina, we knew that she was something special - a rare gem… a planner with an unparalleled passion for her craft and a genuine love for her clients.

Gina, you left us speechless. We will eternally be grateful for you and your team. You transformed our vision into a magical wonderland that surpassed our wildest dreams, and we feel like the luckiest couple to have had you by our side throughout the entire process. You are worth your weight in gold, diamonds, rubies…

On our wedding day, Gina was a beacon of calm and reassurance, handling every aspect with grace, efficiency, and the utmost care. Everything went so smoothly, and everyone kept coming up to us throughout the nice to praise Gina. Her unwavering dedication to making our day perfect was nothing short of awe-inspiring.

We will forever cherish the memories of our wedding day, a day that would not have been possible without Gina's incredible talents, boundless energy, and warm, loving spirit. She is a true gift, and we cannot recommend her highly enough to any couple looking for a planner who will pour their heart and soul into making their wedding day the most beautiful, magical, and unforgettable day of their lives. My only complaint is that now it’s over and I’m going to miss you!! I wish we could do it all over again so that we can re-experience the magic that you are.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
