About

It's simple - hiring a wedding planner is a commitment to enjoy your day to the fullest. We take care of the details so you don't have to.

We'll remember that you want your favors above your chargers, that your change of shoes goes under the sweetheart table, and that tables 8 & 12 have extra place settings for the cousins that never rsvp'd (even though you called them a bajillion times, am I right?!). You won't need to have your bestie unpacking your decorations and stringing twinkle lights - she'll get to be with you, drinking mimosas, remembering all the good times and making new memories.

More importantly, as wedding day command central, we become your buffer. We take care of any hiccups and those last minute decisions and details so you can focus on your moment and be present with loved ones and friends.

We also provide the support you need up front. We'll help prioritize planning decisions, recommend vendors that fit your style & budget, and give key tips on how to make the most of that budget. Let our expertise give you the tools you need to create the day you've both imagined.

Our collections provide a range of planning help, letting you find exactly the amount that you're looking for. They can also be customized, creating the perfect planning fit for your day.

Bottom line - we're an investment in peace-of-mind. We become an extension of your family for one of the biggest moments in your life. We treat that as the privilege it is. We're honored to be chosen to be a part of that moment.

We can't wait to get started planning with you!

Hire Rachel!

Like so many of the other reviews, Rachel and her team are absolutely incredible to work with, and I didn’t have a worry at all day-of for our reception. I knew that things would be handled well and professionally.

We had a situation where one of my support vendors miscalculated linens and Rachel communicated with me quickly about the situation and already had several solutions in action in order to fix the problem (she did).

Because of conflicting schedules, my husband and I were not able to do the set up ourselves, so Rachel and her team coordinated with all of our vendors for the set up of our event, exactly to our specifications, descriptions, and example photos.

Truly, hiring Rachel for planning help and day of coordination with some of the best money we spent. You think you’re going to have the time, but ultimately you’re going to be pulled in so many different directions in the weeks leading up to your event and day of, so execution of all of our hard work and planning was taken care of, and it did not stress me out.

Thank you to Rachel and her team!

Wedding day consultant.

Choosing MasterPiece Weddings and Events was such a wise decision in the wedding planning.

Rachel is knowledgeable, charming, calming and reassuring. Our vendors had worked with MasterPiece in the past and were very positive about working with them again. Rachel met with us before the wedding and answered all of our questions promptly.

The day of the wedding Rachel and Crysta were proactive, prepared and knew exactly what to do. They had their eye out for the small details and kept the big picture in mind. Thanks to Masterpiece Wedding, we were able to enjoy the wedding day knowing that Rachel was in charge taking care of all the details with her cheerful, respectful and focused manner.

Thank you Rachel and the MasterPiece team.

Amazing Coordinator!

Rachel, Crysta, and the rest of the team were absolutely incredible! They made every step of the way better. They met with me twice before the wedding, followed up with emails to make sure everything was the way I wanted it, made suggestions, and helped calm me down. They handled set up and tear down phenomenally so I could focus on my day. They made several quick decisions to keep everything running smoothly and keep the fun going. They even got me photos of my day before the official photographer so I could share on social media. This is an investment I highly suggest every bride make because it will pay off tenfold in ways you can't foresee.

Amazing experience with MasterPiece!

Rachel and Crysta were fantastic to work with, and we can't recommend MasterPiece Weddings enough! In the month leading up to our wedding, they coordinated with all our vendors and really became the point people for our wedding. There were so many little details and decisions that we never would have thought to plan for on our own, which they were able to walk us though without making it overwhelming. It was honestly like having a wedding coach who helped us figure out exactly how our ideal day would proceed and then make that a reality.

At our very first meeting with Rachel, we said our goal in booking a planner was that we would get to fully enjoy each moment of our wedding, and that was exactly what happened. We didn't have to spend a single second worrying about managing the schedule, tracking down family members for pictures, or any of the other stresses that come up. Any issues that needed dealing with were handled by Rachel's team behind the scenes. Their experience and professionalism let us focus entirely on being present with each other, our friends, and our family.

We would 100% recommend them for any couple getting married!

Great to Work With!

Masterpiece Weddings made my daughter's wedding absolutely wonderful! The process was actually fun - not the stressful time we'd heard about! When each vendor learned Masterpiece had been selected, they were excited - which is good! My daughter and I have wildly different tastes and Rachel gave her the ceremony and reception of her dreams! It was beautiful and uniquely her! As we were leaving, my daughter turned to me and said, "Mom, this day was absolutely perfect." Thank you, Rachel and team, for a phenomenal day!

MasterPiece Weddings

Rachel and Crysta did such an amazing job helping us through our day, and the weeks leading up to it! We had such a sense of relief knowing that we had someone we could trust creating our timeline, reaching out to our vendors, and guiding us through the day! Our hair and makeup was running really late and Rachel made sure everything kept moving and managed to keep us on schedule without missing a beat! Not to mention they are incredibly kind and sweet people and made me feel so confident. Cannot recommend Masterpiece Weddings enough and cannot thank them enough for all their hard work and help!

Our Best Decision (besides marrying each other)

Our wedding was everything we hoped for, thanks to MasterPiece Weddings! They were the single most important piece in making our event memorable not only for us, the married couple, but also for our guests. We are forever grateful to Rachel and her team for keeping us on point and coordinating the whirlwind around us! The expertise, professionalism, and kindness they showed us is something we will never forget. They were recommended to us, and we are now recommending to you!

Precious Piece of Mind

As the mother of the bride, we planned the wedding over the course of a year and a half. Made all decorations, booked all vendors, etc. However, one thing that worried me was management of the actual rehearsal and the day of the ceremony. If I became so involved in the details, I knew I'd miss out on truly enjoying the day with my daughter. MasterPiece Weddings, Rachel and Crysta came to the rescue. We hired them for the month-of package. We live in a different town, so we were able to communicate via Zoom and email/texts. Rachel has everything so perfectly organized, that she took us through our initial interview process and opened my eyes on all the things I never would've accounted for. She prepared the wedding day timeline (A/K/A wedding day Bible) for us and coordinated with all the vendors.
On the day of the rehearsal, she showed me how much she was needed. She organized the group and made sure everyone understood their roles, etc.
However, one the day of the wedding, they blew my mind. They followed our instructions to the T, and took care of all the set up and take down of the ceremony and reception. I was able to enjoy the entire day with the peace of mind that all was being handled by a professional. She was on top of every detail, and was quick to handle any glitch in the schedule with a very calm, commanding nature.
We highly recommend Rachel and MasterPiece Weddings if you're in the market for a wedding planner in the Gainesville area.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I know a wedding will run smoothly when Rachel and her team at Materpiece Weddings are used by the bridal party. From the beginning to the end having a planner can make the whole wedding experience great for the bride party, as well as for the vendors.
