Phuliffects Events is the way to go!!

Mrs. A AKA Linda or what I call her Akua. The Boss Planner. If you were looking for a sign as to whether you should book with Phulliffectsevents look no further. DO IT! Akua is/was my saving grace. She is not only a planner, she is a prayer warrior as well. Akua, is a well organized, meticulous, smart, professional and creative. All you have to do is give her a glimpse of your vision and she will bring it to life and more. Akua is very calm! There were ALOT of curve balls thrown at her during the planning of my wedding and she handled each one perfectly. Akua, kept me calm. A month before the wedding i started to get anxious, Akua called and prayed with my husband and I. She also updated us with all the details of our special day daily.

Even on the day of out outdoor wedding she was very professional and poised. The weather forecast stated, it was going to rain all day of the event so naturally I was worried and stressed that the day was ruined. That morning as I was getting ready, Akua told me not to worry everything will go smooth and the rain will not ruin the day. She made sure what she said is what exactly happened! The rain cleared up right before the wedding started!! Throughout the wedding if I ever felt like something was wrong I would look for Akua's face through the crowd and I would see her smiling somewhere. When I saw that smile I knew everything was going well. There is so much more I could say about Phulliffects (Akua and her team) but I'm sure you are ready to book her now. So GO DO IT!!!!! Trust me, it will be one of the best decisions--besides saying 'I Do' to your loved one--you make for your wedding. Thank you BOSS planner and Phullifects for making our day special. You will definitely be hearing from us again :)

The coordinator I didn’t know I needed!

We cannot express how deeply thankful we are for working with the Phuliffects team. From the moment we met Akua, it was evident that we were in the hands of a true professional who not only understood the details of wedding planning but also genuinely cared about making our day unforgettable.

Now, I (the bride) am naturally very organized, and planned every single detail of our wedding. So, at first, I thought we didn’t need a day-of coordinator. But one of my girlfriends reminded me that no matter how organized a person is, they can’t handle all of the many details that will crop up on the day of a wedding… And so we hired Akua who, it turns out, is not just a day-of coordinator. She took the lead months before the wedding, letting me hand off responsibilities to her and just focus on being a bride. For instance, she handled communications with all our vendors, put our timeline together, provided moral support, and so much more.

One of the most significant aspects of Akua’s work is her ability to handle unexpected challenges with grace and composure. About 90 minutes before the start of our ceremony, we decided to enjoy a private moment while sipping on two espressos. Well, my husband never got a chance to sip on his because he accidentally poured it on my dress. Yes, folks you heard right. My beautiful ivory lace gown now had shades of brown. I didn’t even panic, I just quietly said, “...please, get Akua…”. Without missing a beat, Akua removed the dress and disappeared into the bathroom. She resurfaced minutes later with a clean, dry dress for me to slip back on like nothing had happened. This quick thinking and problem-solving skills probably saved my husband’s life. LOL

We also want to acknowledge other members of the Phuliffects team, who kept everything on schedule, allowing us to relax and enjoy each moment without worrying about logistics. Their warmth and professionalism put us at ease from beginning to end. Our wedding day turned out to be a dream come true, and we owe much of that to Akua and her team.

The Best in the Business!

I knew the only way I would be able to enjoy my wedding day as a Type-A bride was if I hired a wedding coordinator, someone I trusted that I could give the keys to and let them drive. After meeting Akua, I cancelled the other interviews I had lined up with other coordinators and asked for a contract the next day! Akua is amazing at what she does and really seeks to understand your vision of the day, then executes it to perfection. I loved how willing she was to answer questions, give opinions, and send us referrals from the day we signed on. She and her team at Phuliffects Events are true professionals and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day went off without a hitch! Whether it was running out to buy umbrellas because the forecast called for rain or helping my mom get her dress zipped, they were ready and willing to step in. Because of their meticulous planning, attention to detail, and communication with our other vendors, my husband and I were truly able to live in the moment and soak in every aspect of our wedding day. What made it all even more impressive is that Akua managed our wedding and gave us a flawless day a few weeks out from the birth of her daughter. Talk about commitment to your craft! Hiring Akua and Phuliffect Events to manage our wedding was some of the best money we spent. We cannot thank her and her team enough for all that they did for us!
