Nightingale Events

TLDR: HIRE THEM NOW – if you are reading this review, it means you are considering Nightingale. Book them immediately- you will not regret it.

We hired Nightingale for Wedding Coordination as they came recommended by our venue and I just have to say: WOW. I had the HONOR of working with Rachel. I am a pretty organized person, so I was able to book vendors and get all the initial portion set up. The amount of work Rachel put in those last moments before the wedding is almost indescribable. Let me just tell you that I felt that Rachel had my back the entire time when did have some hiccups with a different vendor. Rachel took care of it and handled it so well. Leading up to the day, she had us thinking about things we would never consider thinking about. Since I have never planned a wedding before, Rachel was the expert and mastermind to pull everything together. When I was booking vendors, it was once one was done, I booked the next, but the last 1-2 months, you are talking to ALL of them it is a very daunting task.

If I were to do it all over it again, I would rebook Nightingale in a heartbeat.

The day-of was magical. Rachel was my bridesmaid, friend, and me all in one. She anticipated ALL my needs and was the voice of reason the whole day and night. Our groom gal, Amy, was there for us too and I swear, they all were so so helpful so that Mark and I could enjoy our day. We felt like guests at our own wedding. Our job was to enjoy the day and they made it happen beyond our expectations. We didn't interact too much with the third gal but thank you so much for setting up the details of the room so nicely!

Thank you Rachel and the Nightingale team for making everything come together so beautifully. Rachel, as I have said in our texts over and over, you really are the best. Thank you. Truly.

Where to begin!! We got married at Water’s Edge, a venue that handles most of the logistics and even provides a coordinator. But even with a venue like this, you still have photographers, hair/make-up, music, the florist and then guests to coordinate. The effort it takes is just nuts. So you need someone whose primary job it is to a.) coordinate all of your vendors and b.) look after YOU on your day to make sure that you’re enjoying every minute of it. There’s no way we would have been able to experience, let alone enjoy, this big party we planned for 18 months if it hadn’t been for Nightingale Events.

We worked with Caity Kitchens, who took us through the last 8 weeks: wrangling all of our vendors, going over every little detail to make sure the night was exactly what we wanted. She scheduled a venue walkthrough (which was so helpful to visualize the day) and had an answer to every question before and during the wedding —and there were a lot of questions! When is a vendor is arriving, where are the flowers going, when the Mother of the Bride should be ready, etc. Caity coordinated everything and was prepared for any situation—including when the groom didn’t have pants! Caity had a plan A, B, and C (including running to the nearby outlets if she had to!). She even made us an Instagram Reel from our wedding day! All of this reminded us why we hired Caity and Nightingale Events— because they are there for YOU.

Caity is warm, funny, and has an infectious ease about her while also being a super planner who has everything under control. She is such a joy to spend time with—we seriously miss our calls with her! Even if you think you’re a DIY kind of person, that you can manage all of it—having now been through it, trust us, you need someone to run the show that day, and you need the experience and expertise that only Caity and the others at Nightingale can bring. We can’t recommend Caity highly enough!

Lisa and the Nightingale Events Team were one of the first vendors we booked and we couldn’t have done it without them! When we first started looking at venues, we couldn’t help but feel compelled to get married at my husband’s family farm.

From the very beginning, we knew we needed to bring in a strong team to pull off this 250 person wedding! We interviewed with three to four different wedding planners, but Lisa and her team stood out among all of them!

Lisa carried a presence to her. She proved that she was timely, punctual, professional, and caring. Herself and her team took the time to get to know us & understand what we wanted to create. They helped us organize the process by giving us access to helpful resources & planning apps. With the wedding management package, they took over the final steps of planning to truly create the day we wanted and ease our stresses about the final details! They discussed timelines with all of our vendors, finalized big and small details, checked in each week with how we were feeling, set up and tore down decorations so our family and friends didn’t need to lift a finger, and so much more! This team helped take our stress away and reminded us that we were getting ready for one of the most exciting days of our lives!

And that it was!

Nightingale Events, we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you!
