The dream team!

Abby Furbish from Nicole Mower Events is truly our hero! We already booked our venue when we engaged with them, and booked NME for their event management package. It was perfect for us as we wanted to stay hands on in the process, but their expertise and vendor recommendations were priceless. Abby handled so much behind the scenes which allowed us to enjoy the process and not have to get into all the little details. I can’t imagine what her inbox looks like!

Our wedding day was a dream, and we are still being told it was one of the best weddings our guests have attended, with incredible food, decor and florals. Abby, Nicole and Ellen were onsite all weekend working incredibly hard to make it all happen. We truly had the dream team and our only regret is not booking them sooner!

Nicole is the MVP of wedding planning & design

My husband and I hired Nicole and her team for the full design and planning of our wedding and could not have wished for a better experience. Nicole + Abby went above and beyond in creating the wedding experience of our dreams and took care of every detail no matter how big or small, as well as vendor booking and communication, budget, contracts, timelines and deadlines, etc., while making sure that the planning process and the big day was absolutely seamless and stress-free for us. Our wedding was a dream come true and all of our guests were in awe of the incredible experience they had. It was absolutely perfect and visually stunning. The design was a work of art in itself. I would strongly recommend Nicole's services to anyone - she is a master at what she does and is a joy to work with.

Style and Practicality that should grace every wedding

Nicole and Abby executed a wedding designed specifically for us. We wanted an experiential wedding, with lots of interaction, no required seating or activities, and high energy. NMWE delivered that and more.

1 - NMWE was budget-neutral for us. They found options for repurposing design elements and they knew exactly what options would enhance our experience the most and helped us avoid expenses that would not have added as much value.
2- NMWE can design anything. Their flair for style and deep event experience makes it all make sense. Nicole knew who to call for everything. For example she single-handedly designed a floral booth for guests to make their own decorations and she executed it with a local farm. Our guests rave about the floral booth every day.
3 - NMWE is fun! They carried their bubbly and soothing energy throughout the venue, even jumping right into the photo camper (which we would never have known about if not for them.)
4 - Nicole is well-regarded professional in this area, which is also the area we live in. We wanted as much local sourcing as possible, and since Nicole is so active in local professional groups and just generally a great person, she was able to identify specialized vendors who could carry out our visions and they in turn all wanted to work with her. She worked with one vendor in particular who did not have wedding experience and taught them the ropes, giving them such a great experience that they're going on to do more weddings now. NMWE's reputation and professionalism opened up a lot more options for us.

Amazing planning team!

We hired Nicole for full design + planning, and we'd choose her all over again! We were planning our Portsmouth, NH wedding from DC, so we wanted to hire someone with a lot of local knowledge and experience. After talking to Nicole on the phone, I canceled calls with other potential planners and hired her. She is so friendly, down-to-earth, and efficient.

Nicole helped keep us on track with planning and was really great about doing Google Meet meetings/phone calls instead of in-person meetings when necessary. When we were flying up to New Hampshire with extremely limited time, she helped us use that time wisely to check out venues, do our catering tasting, and visit rental showrooms.

Nicole's 10+ years of experience in the Seacoast area was really helpful throughout the planning process. She helped us choose vendors for the vibe we wanted, and we were really happy with every single one. In addition, during our wedding weekend, it was super fun to have vendors that knew each other -- we felt really taken care of.

Our wedding went off without a hitch. Everything was so smooth and organized. If we could do it all over again, we'd hire Nicole (and team!) in a heartbeat.

An amazing beautiful experience !

I can’t say enough about the wonderful experience we had with Abby and Nicole,every detail was meticulously taken care of as well as sweet people. Weddings can be very stressful and they completely took the stress away and made our day so beautiful.

Absolutely incredible

Nicole and her team went above and beyond for our COVID wedding. We went from having a 120 person wedding at a golf course to a 30 person wedding on the lake at our Grandparents house. We could barely manage to plan one wedding never-mind navigating cancellations, overnight stays for guests and the regulations each state had. Nicole and her team went from day of coordinators to coordinating and helping us organize an entirely new plan. We tried to cut corners and trim back our vision since there were less people but Nicole reassured us that this day is still everything we hoped and dreamed of and we are only doing it once. So we listened to her!! We had the hanging floral chandelier, the flowers around the arbor and all the small details her and her team put together without us even knowing. Who knew you needed a table to cut a cake? Thankfully Nicole saved the day and found one tucked away. There is so much more I could share but through all of this Nicole and Abby made our big day the most spectacular day it could have been considering the circumstances. We could not have done it without you! Thank you for all that you did and for risking your lives to make sure our special day came together like a dream come true.

Nicole Mower

My husband and I got married on September 5th this year. It was certainly a crazy pandemic wedding! We hired Nicole Mower as our wedding coordinator as you can all probably relate that wedding planning can be super stressful. We really wanted to alleviate some of the stress and responsibilities from the bride/groom to someone else on the actual wedding day. Of course, due to the pandemic things did not go as planned and our plans changed several times ( not just our wedding date but our entire venue had to be changed and re-plan our entire wedding in 2 months). Well, Nicole was an absolute SUPERSTAR! She is beyond organized, kind and will remind you of things that you may not even think about! She also had so many suggestions and wedding resources! She is full of "wedding" knowledge and also provided a lot of compassion through the process since it was not necessarily the "normal wedding planning" so to speak. We highly recommend her services. She also has an assistant, Abigail. Another thing that we found super helpful is that Nicole is very responsive in email/phone. I am such a type A person and get eager to get an answer when things come up. Well, she WILL get back to you within the same day most of the time or the very next day. On the day of the wedding, she really delivered. She was in charge of setting up the tables, decorations, all of these little details that you think are not a big deal but are time consuming on the actual day of the wedding. Everything was done by her on the wedding day and she did an amazing job. I actually do not think our wedding could have gone as smooth and organized if it was not for her help. Moral of the story- HIRE NICOLE AS YOUR WEDDING COORDINATOR ! SHE WILL PROVIDE A PROFESSIONAL AND STRESS FREE SUPPORT ON THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY OF YOUR LIFE. IT IS ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT!

The Best Month of Coordinator - thanks Nicole & Team!

We used Nicole and her team for month of coordination for our wedding in October 2019. I work in events, so I felt confident doing the majority of planning myself but definitely wanted a wedding expert to come in for the big day. The month of package was a perfect fit for our needs and allowed me to get creative but always have an expert's opinion on hand when I needed it. Note: do not try to plan a big wedding on your own if you don't have event experience - it's hard! Nicole takes her work very seriously and had a very thorough plan and documents that kept us super organized. She came to our rehearsal on Friday and led everyone through their roles for the next day. Saturday I barely saw her and her team as they were very busy making sure we were able to just enjoy ourselves! We will be forever grateful for their hard work and the magical day they allowed us to have. Thank you thank you! Heather & Nate

Best ever.

Nicole is THE BEST. I worked very closely with Nicole as the MOH of one of her brides, and she was incredible. Nicole is attentive to every detail, had an incredible vision, and executed a beautiful event. We couldn't have put on the wedding without Nicole, especially because we planned it in three months! Nicole gave us the best recommendations for vendors and was with us every step of the way. She made the day so very special and effortless for us. At the end of the night, I made sure to search the venue to find Nicole and give her a great big hug. I even made the shuttle that was going to the afterparty wait so that I could find her. I couldn't imagine not thanking Nicole for everything she did!!! AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING.

No one better than Nicole and her team!

We decided to work with Nicole about two months before our wedding. We were pretty set with the planning but wanted someone to help us iron our final details and be there to coordinate the day of our event. We knew right from our first phone call with Nicole that she was the perfect person for this job. She listened to our needs and quickly sent over information about her role would be and what to expect from working with her. It was exactly what we needed and throughout the next several weeks we continued to have a positive experience working with Nicole. She handled all of the final details working with our vendors, created a detailed timeline and production schedule, and made sure we took care of things that we probably wouldn't have thought of on our own. Nicole is extremely organized, professional, and creative. She made sure that every detail of our event was perfect, down to the smallest thing. Nicole even came through at the last minute when we found out the day before our wedding that some major furniture rentals would not be delivered. She sprung into action, and spent what we're sure was hours calling around to get what we needed from vendors she had connections with, and even picked up the items in her personal vehicle to bring them to the wedding. This was above and beyond what we could have asked of her. Throughout the whole weekend, we were at ease knowing Nicole was there to handle any small issues that might pop up. She only came to us when necessary and always already with a solution that she wanted to fill us in on. On top of that, she was always right there if we needed something or had a question for her, and handled everything quickly and just the way we wanted. Beyond all of that, Nicole is just the nicest person and genuinely feels like a friend to us! We're so glad we decided to work with Nicole and highly recommend her for any event planning.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Working with Nicole for the first time this past year was a dream. Being a wedding musician that does ceremony/cocktail hour music, and then transitions to DJ'ing the reception it's important for me to have clear direction from the coordinator. Nicole was so professional and down to earth at the same time. She's a great communicator and her designs stand alone. Looking forward to working together way more often in the next couple of years!

Working with Nicole was completely and wholly easy! She had everything under control as well as knowing where everyone was and supposed to be. I look forward to working with her again!
