Nicole-Our Destination Wedding Savior!

We are so grateful that we used Nicole to plan our destination wedding. She is Phoenix based, but was extremely knowledgeable about our venue in Sedona, AZ. We decided on a destination wedding, and being on the east coast and planning a west coast wedding without Nicole would've been an absolute nightmare. She negotiated a better rate with our venue, she connected us with vendors (DJ, Florist, etc) that was within our budget. She also willingly accepted numerous packages of wedding decor/supplies at her home and transported them to Sedona for us. She was easily reachable both by phone/text and email. By the end of our wedding planning, I wouldn't consider her a planner, but more of a lifelong friend. She was a pleasure to work with during the planning process, and was there for everything during the wedding weekend. From helping manage a snowstorm rehearsal dinner to keeping everyone on track on the wedding day, as well as supporting me and my husband throughout the day, Nicole really did it all, she was WELL worth the investment. I would highly recommend her for any event!

Worth all the money

We had such a perfect day and because of Nicole it was way less work and stress. She reminded us when things needed to get done and recommended other great vendors.

Hire Nicole to Ease Your Mind on Your Wedding Day

We hired Nicole after interviewing three other vendors. Her pricing and offerings were by far the most inclusive. No limits to communication and her having three people there on the day of for coordination were our top reasons for hiring her. We were not disappointed.

Ours was Nicole's first Lebanese wedding, and she handled all the cultural elements expertly.

Our wedding required a lot of last minute logistical shifts, mostly driven by the large size of the event (not to mention rain on the day of) Nicole rolled with the punches and kept me out of it, which is a huge gift. I had the best day of my life, and Nicole made sure of it.
