My Event Buddee

I originally tried to plan my husband and my wedding by myself with some help from a wedding-planning book. A few months before the wedding, I was stressed and desperate for help. I had the wedding date, the officiant, and the church, but I didn’t have a reception venue, make-up artist, hair-stylist, caterer, etc.

I reached out to Sydney (MyEventBudee) through the WeddingWire website along with a few other planners. My mom prayed and I prayed for help. Sydney responded promptly, and wanted to work with me. She is truly a Godsend! She gave me a reasonable price, and her services are invaluable. Sydney put me at ease right away, and I was relieved when I hired her.

I let her know my budget, and she estimated the cost for each vendor that I wanted, and kept me on-track throughout the planning process. I told her some vendors in which I was interested, and she did the price research and contacted the vendors for me. When we agreed on certain vendors, she had them send me the contracts to sign, and helped guide me and my mom where to pay. She put my flowers together with a small budget, eliminating the need for a florist.

Sydney kept me included in vendor emails and was willing to be the main communicator. She was also flexible with virtual meeting times (so I could meet with her after normal work hours).

One example of Sydney in action, was during the ceremony when I was waiting to process down the aisle. The ring-bearer (an adorable boy of about three-years of age) accidentally untied the rings from the pillow, and they fell on the floor. Sydney stayed calm, cool, and collected, as she held the narthex doors open with her foot, leaned down over her beautifully pregnant belly, and quickly tied the rings on the pillow again before sending the ring bearer and flower girl off down the aisle. Awesome!

For anyone debating about hiring a wedding planner, I totally recommend spending the money and going with MyEventBudee. Her services took a lot of stress off of me, and comforted me throughout planning and the wedding day. Sydney is a sweetheart and she does an excellent job!

From the moment we met Sydney & Bridget from My Event Buddee, we knew we were in good hands. Both Sydney & Bridget's communication style's were fast, friendly, efficient and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. Bridget made sure to introduce herself to my husband and I, as well as the entire wedding party, to ensure everyone felt comfortable and knew who she was on the big day. This attention to detail and personalized touch carried through to the wedding day, where Bridget worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly. They even had a special plate of appetizers and our signature cocktails waiting for us in the bridal suite during our private vow reading, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. The quality of their work and value they provided was unmatched! We are so grateful to Bridget and Sydney for making our wedding day the perfect celebration we had dreamed of.

We were so lucky to have Sydney as our day-of coordinator for both our wedding and our post-wedding brunch. She did an incredible job managing all the moving parts—coordinating with vendors, cueing our ceremony, troubleshooting our slideshow during the reception, and even setting up and taking down our floral photo display. Everything ran smoothly thanks to her calm, capable presence.

Throughout the planning process, Sydney was responsive, professional, and always eager to help. Her attention to detail and kind, thoughtful nature made such a difference—she even sent us Christmas cookies last year, which was such a sweet and personal touch!

If you’re looking for a planner who is not only on top of her game but also genuinely cares about her clients, I can’t recommend Sydney enough. She helped make our wedding everything we hoped it would be.

Hiring Sydney was the best decision we made for our wedding! She took care of every single detail, making sure everything was flawless from start to finish. Our day was absolutely beautiful, and it couldn’t have gone more perfectly. Thanks to her, everything ran seamlessly. Planning our wedding with her was so fun, and she makes her clients feel so special. Sydney would always remind us that this is our day and she will do anything we need her to do to make it the best day ever!

One of our favorite things was how unique and gorgeous all the signage and invitations were. She has an incredible eye for design, and every detail felt so personalized and special.

We will definitely be hiring her for all our future events. If you're looking for someone to bring your vision to life and make your day absolutely perfect, hire Event Buddee!!

Sydney was our wedding day of coordinator, and she did a great job taking control of our wedding day. She did all the thinking for everyone, made the decisions we discussed, and executed them flawlessly. She fought for what the bride and groom wanted when things didn't go our way. She created a timeline for us and kept us on track throughout the day. She set up all of our decorations, took them down, and loaded them away in the proper vehicles. Sydney checked in on us regularly. We could simply send her a text with what was on our mind as we got closer and closer to the main event. She developed a relationship with the bride, the groom, and any parents that wanted to be involved in the 1-2 months that we really worked with her. She was wonderful. We are very glad that we had her and would highly recommend her to a friend.

Sydney was remarkable throughout the entire wedding planning process. She took the time to answer our questions and give her expert opinion on everything we requested - from napkins to the day of minute by minute timeline, Sydney has you covered! She went above and beyond in so many areas, and was confident, kind, and respectful in her communication with all of our other venders. We owe it to her for making our wedding day one of the best days of our lives, and we got a friend out of the deal too💛

Besides deciding to get married, hiring Sydney to be our day of coordinator was the best decision we made during wedding planning. She is beyond professional while still being easy to work with. Sydney has the ability to support the wedding planning process while still making the bride feel like she is being heard and understood. Wedding planning is a challenging time and having someone in your corner who has been a part of lots of weddings as well as planning her own makes a huge difference. I cannot recommend My Event Buddee enough!!!

Hiring Sydney as our Day of Coordinator was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding! From our first planning meeting to the end of our big day, Sydney's involvement and commitment to making sure every detail was perfect was truly unmatched. Without Sydney, our wedding day would not have run as smoothly as it did - we honestly didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day of because we knew she had it covered! If you're thinking of hiring a Day of Coordinator or Wedding Planner, we would HIGHLY recommend Sydney with My Event Buddee!

Hiring My Event Buddee was the best decision I made in regards to my wedding. (Second only to my husband choice) Sydney was absolutely incredible. We are currently located in Chicago, but were planning a Minneapolis wedding so we really needed help with the planning. Sydney did EVERYTHING! She designed our invitations, save the dates, place cards, found venues, found vendors, decorated everything, ran our rehearsal, budgeted, dealt with day-of crises, helped clean up, and was professional, fun, and kind. I cannot stress how much I owe to Sydney. Every single one of my bridesmaids and even some groomsmen commented on how amazing she was. I have bridesmaids who said they wish they had her for their weddings and ones that said they are hiring her when they do get married. Sydney answered my every question in a timely manner, was willing to chat whenever I needed, and was literally the only reason this wedding happened at all. She has an impeccable design eye and is able to deal with stress while maintaining a sunny disposition. If you want your wedding to go off without a hitch and actually enjoy the planning process, hiring My Event Buddee is a NEED.

We are so grateful for Sydney's involvement on our wedding day. Her professionalism and extremely positive attitude was noted by our family and friends throughout the day and night. Whether it was hunting down boutenierres, bustling my dress, or loading supplies in the pouring rain at the end of the night, Sydney did it with a smile while making everyone around her feel at ease.
