We booked Meg for partial planning, are are so glad we did! Meg is a girl boss whose calm yet unwavering approach to everything made our lives that much more easier and less stressful. She is extremely organized, communicative, proactive and hard-working--everything you need and want in a wedding planner! She was always available to chat and willing to meet in person frequently. I've heard nightmare stories from friends about their wedding planning and how stressful it was, but I can't say I experienced any of that. We were so grateful to have Meg and her team there with us every step of the way, especially on the day of our wedding. It was amazing to not have to worry about anything the day of--Meg handled everything like a pro from the set-up to how to properly walk down the aisle to having everything packaged up perfectly post-wedding for us to pick up. She was not only your wedding planner, but your friend, your therapist, voice of reason and more. She was a dream to work with, I miss talking with her almost every day!!!!!

I can honestly say that hiring Meg was by far the smartest decision we made throughout our wedding process (other than choosing to marry each other, of course). We hired her to be our "Day Of" planner-- but that couldn't have been further from the case, as she was involved and accessible from the moment we hired her (several months before the wedding) to the day after.

We got married in a photography studio/loft space, where every single element of the wedding had to be brought in. Several people had told us that we could easily manage the month of/day of coordinating ourselves-- thankfully, we listened to our florist/stylist who strongly encouraged us to have someone put together all of the pieces... and referred us to Meg/LVR. The number of things that come up throughout the wedding planning process, and particularly at the end, are immeasurable. Meg was on top of every single one. From realizing that our mini whoopee pie favors had the wrong date printed on them (and re-printing and re-sticking ALL 150 of them the night before the wedding) to providing suggestions for numerous hair/makeup people when our original choice fell through, Meg was there. Even better, her graphic designer husband did all of our last minute paper goods (escort cards, table numbers, signage) since we had neglected to get this together.

We wholeheartedly recommend Meg-- and truly miss working with her, now that the wedding is over.

Meg was the coordinator for my April NYC wedding. By the time I hired her I had made all of the big vendor decisions and thought I was just looking for someone to help with last minute logistics, but Meg went above and beyond my expectations and was very, very involved starting about 2 months before the wedding. We met several times to go over tons of details, and she was always a calming presence filled with helpful suggestions and stories. She came to meetings with the florist, caterer and photographer and truly cared that I was in a good place every step of the way. I was a very meticulous, organized bride who didn't think she needed much help, but Meg was really the glue that held my wedding together -- I got married in a loft space and had to bring everything in, and she did all of the coordination between the florist, caterer, and rental companies, and a ton of behind the scenes work that I didn't even realize would need to be done. The day of the wedding Meg was there every step of the way to make sure everyone was working according to the timeline that she'd created, and during the party she was really running the show, checking in with me or my mother or husband frequently to give updates and make sure we were okay.

I would wholeheartedly recommend that you hire Meg - I am happy to share more details; email me and we can talk LVR Events!

Don't decide. Just book Meg! Meg was my fairy godmother. We would not have been able to pull of our wedding without her. She was amazing to work with. She dealt with our annoyingly last minute questions and our need to always meet after work. If I could somehow integrate Meg into my everyday life-planning, I would. Thank you Meg!

Choosing La Vie En Rose was one of the easiest and best decisions we made. Meg made the planning process infinitely easier and more enjoyable, was really responsive and knew exactly what we were looking for, even though we weren't always articulate or decisive. We used her to help us find a venue for our brunch reception and day-of coordination (which is a misnomer considering how much she fielded in the weeks leading up to the wedding) and I'm convinced we'd still be engaged without her. She found a restaurant that was lovely (under budget, too!), hauled everything around for us and was always two steps ahead. She's sweet, funny, and calm while being really professional and on top of everything. I didn't have to think about anything beyond getting married, any wrinkles that needed to be ironed out never made it to my radar. If I could hire Meg to manage the rest of my life, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

I cannot recommend any wedding vendor more highly. Truly, I had an incredible experience at my wedding, in large part due to the services provided by Meg. I am an event planner by trade, and went into the planning experience thinking I was just fine doing it all myself. Meg, however, blew all my expectations, handled everything with a calm caring spirit, and allowed me to fully enjoy the day and not be "working the event" at my wedding. We had an outdoor wedding on a rainy day, and it could have resulted in a great deal of stress, however Meg handled all of the logistics so I never had to. I am a tough, discerning customer and truly cannot recommend anyone more highly. If I had it to do all over again there are few things I would change about my wedding because it was so wonderful, but the first change I would make is that I would involve Meg and her team earlier. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have about my experience, but please know, you'll never regret working with Meg and her team.

Meg, oh sweet wonderful Meg. Meg was fantastic, organized, thoughtful, and deeply important to the success of our wedding day. Meg offers packages of varying levels of involvement, which was great for our budget. We did a partial planning package, which meant she gave us guidance from the beginning on various vendors, and then a few months before the wedding began to take over the organization responsibilities and all of the day-of coordination. She has a lot of great resources, from her budget sheets to time-tables, that really helped guide us to smart decisions. She understood what we were looking for and delivered 100% of what we wanted. If you are having a wedding with multiple vendors, and a large number of guests, then absolutely get a planner. I didn't have to worry about how anything was going on with set up on my wedding day, which left me time to enjoy being with my friends and family, and also left my friends and family to enjoy not setting things up! Meg was fantastic, I highly recommend her!

They were fantastic! My bridesmaids got to enjoy my wedding instead of working up a sweat. On the day of my wedding I was so happy to have Meg by my side to help with everything. She was the ultimate bridesmaid, and I didn't have to feel bad about asking for help! I highly recommend La Vie En Rose to help plan your wedding and more importantly, be there on your wedding day to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Meg Hotchkiss was great. I was planning a New York wedding from my home in California. There might have been challenges but instead everything was seamless because we were working with Meg.

First of all she is incredibly organized! She has all kinds of wedding experience and gave us lots of valuable advice throughout the process. One of the things we especially appreciated was that she wasn't just going to give us a "cookie cutter" wedding. She is a great listener and was able to tailor everything to our particular vision.

On the day of the wedding she seemed to be everywhere at once. Every time I might have needed her I would look around and there she was ready to help! In many cases she anticipated what I was going to ask for.

Meg is a real professional! You will not be disappointed if you use her!

Meg is the best! You never have to worry about anything after you book her! Always follow up and very responsive. If you want a painless wedding planning process, call Meg!
