Great service and well worth the value!

We used Iconic Occasions for full wedding planning and it was one of the best things we decided to do. Paula and her team helped us plan a destination wedding in Savannah for lots of out of town and international guests. The service we received was well worth the value for what we paid, and the piece of mind we got from having Paula as a planner was the most valuable wedding investment we made!

Paula was on top of everything and kept the planning process seamless from beginning to end. Her calm energy and demeanor was also key in keeping us un-stressed through the whole thing. When it came to the actual wedding day, Paula and Monica were on top of everything, and as a bride I was able to fully enjoy my day and be present, without getting caught up in last minute decisions or issues. Everything was handled and Paula and her team were well prepared, including bringing supplies for any possible need.

We would definitely recommend Paula and Iconic Occasions!

You need Paula in your corner!

Paula and her team are fantastic! I utilized her day-of coordination services, but she helped me with so much more leading up to the wedding weekend. From the very start, I felt that Paula understood our vision and our priorities for our wedding, and she helped advocate for us with challenging vendors and was so committed to creating the perfect experience for our wedding day. She is great at capturing your vision and inspiration and also has a really strong attention to detail. I loved that I could trust her judgment and experience on everything from placing decorations to sequencing our reception events. On the day of, Paula and her team executed everything expertly and seamlessly. I absolutely recommend Iconic Occasions!!

Outstanding service

I have no words to express my gratitude for the outstanding service received from Iconic Occasions. My fiance and I were so impressed by the level of professionalism displayed throughout the entire process. Monica was our wedding planner and she was incredible!! She took the time to learn about us as a couple and she carefully identified which wedding planning services were needed in order to support the vision we had for our wedding day. She went above and beyond to make our vision a reality. We were blown away by her correspondence, quality of work and efficiency. She was kind, caring and supportive and flexible with our requests and changes. She met and communicated with our venue staff, vendors-both local and traveling from out of town, family members, and friends, she created beautiful paper materials for our wedding reception, she picked up items from our home and transported them to the wedding venue, she was available to receive items at the venue ahead of our wedding events, she assisted with making our parting gifts, she took last minute requests from us and handled them with grace and so much more...
We had multiple nights of events with several moving parts and we were able to let go and relax the entire time because Monica was there to support us. We highly recommend this company for any event and we will absolutely be using them again for future events that we hold.

10/10 Recommend Iconic Occasions

I cannot express how easy my wedding planning experience was thanks to Paula with Iconic Occasions. She was prepared, professional, stayed in communication no matter what day or time, and was on top of everything. I highly recommend using this company especially if you do not have anyone helping! She communicated with all vendors a month out, had everything prepared and organized, and went over the top on anything I could need the day of my wedding! Paula, thank you so much! You could not have made my day more special!

Paula and her team are the best!!

Paula and her team are the best! I hired Iconic for the 3-month wedding coordinating and had a great experience. She was availble all the time and answered any questions I had very quickly. Her knowledge about the industry and recommendations were amazing and well received. They made the day of so smooth and relaxing. They were very attentive to our wants and needs, I felt extremely confident the entire process. The package I picked couldn’t have been any better from the bridal bag, to the welcome gift and even congratulatory bouquet after the event was just so sweet! Me, my husband, and family were very happy with their services! Highly recommend Iconic Occasions!!

Great experience!

Hiring Paula to help with my wedding was one of the best decisions I made during the planning process! She and her staff helped the day run smoothly and were there to attend to any needs or questions I had. Her husband, Brandon, stepped in last minute to serve as our DJ and he amazing job as well. Highly recommend both of them for your event!

Amazing wedding

Paula and her team are above and beyond the best you can have! Not only was she so helpful and so calming but she was such a joy to work with. Paula is so easy to get in contact with and so responsive and made everything so easy. The day of I had absolutely nothing to worry about. She brought the lovely Monica and Tiffany with her who were incredible! Monica never left my side and helped me get through every moment of the day. Paula made sure every moment of my wedding was perfect and went off without a hitch! I could not recommend her and her team enough!

Best experience ever

I truly cannot say enough good things about Iconic Occasions. From the very beginning Paula was so attentive to my every need. She was so helpful and helped with things I didn't even know I needed help with! She checked in often to make sure I was doing okay. She made me feel more like a friend than a client. On the day of the wedding, she solved every single problem, made the venue absolutely beautiful, and was extremely supportive. She made sure everything stayed on schedule. She added little things that made the day even more special, like a bridal emergency bag, glow sticks on the dance floor, packs of tissues for the ceremony, and bathroom baskets. She packed everything up at the end of the night and kept everything so organized. I really can't say enough about my experience with Iconic Occasions. They were amazing and my wedding was PERFECT because of them. I 100% recommend them to anyone!!!!!
