When we started to think about planning a wedding in NYC, we had no idea where to begin, so we decided to work with a wedding planner. Not only was Lizzie the greatest person to work with EVER, but choosing to hire her as our planner was, hands down, the best money we spent on anything wedding-related. From the start, Lizzie was extremely organized, easy-going, reassuring, and on top of things. She started by sending us a clear outline of everything that needed to be done in a month-by-month checklist, which broke things down and made it all extremely easy to digest. From there, Lizzie always sent us a list of options - for our venue, caterer, florist, etc. - that she put together based on what we wanted and her expertise. We were able to be the decision-makers, but having her narrow it down to options that fit us was SO valuable and made the whole process (she did this for everything!) so much more palatable.

Lizzie is an expert at what she does, and it shows. She always provided options that made sense for us, gave her opinion but never forced anything on us, and she was always available to talk things through, answer questions, and provide her expertise and advice when we asked for it. She worked so well with us, was patient and understanding, and she knows exactly how to get things done!

On the day of, Lizzie was nothing but calm, cool, and collected, and she was on top of EVERYTHING. No detail or to-do was missed, and that was all thanks to her. She navigated so many moving parts, family dynamics, and a busy day, and our day could not have been more perfect. Everyone in my family and wedding party raved about her and said they were so impressed by 1) how everything came together and how beautiful it was, but even more so 2) how awesome Lizzie was at her job and how great she was to work with.

My fiance and I would now call Lizzie a friend and it was such a privilege to work with her. She deserves all the flowers and more for being an amazing person and for being SO great at her job. NYC is a big place to navigate with a lot of people in the wedding field, so having someone as genuine as Lizzie to do this with made it feel like such a personal, easy, and calm process to go through.

We could not recommend Lizzie more and hope everyone gets a chance to work with her!!!

Rarely do I find myself wishing i could give 10 stars instead of 5! I don't know where to begin to explain how incredible Rachel and her whole team are. I produce events for a living and Im a tough critic but I literally have NO NOTES - Rachel gave me the biggest gift ever - i got to turn off my producer hat and just be mother of the bride. The entire process was so well organized , there wasn't a thing that Rachel hadn't thought of - every time i thought of something throughout the process Rachel already had a plan for it. Rachel has a quiet in charge energy that is absolutely perfect. It is also clear how much the vendors enjoy working with her and that is so important to a seamless and successful event! Rachels team omg - one was better than the next! Wedding planning needn't dominate your life and working with Rachel is the key to that - things are planned for and there is a timeline for everything and it all gets done with NO DRAMA. Lastly, we had fun and we already miss her so much !

Where do I even begin with Rachel?! She is truly the BEST. From the very beginning, she made the entire wedding planning process feel fun, exciting, and somehow completely stress-free. I kept waiting for the “wedding planning stress” everyone talks about… and it genuinely never came because Rachel had everything handled.

She completely understood my vision and made every single dream (and there were A LOT of them 😂) come to life. No idea was ever too much. I could send her a random thought or inspiration and she would immediately understand what I was going for, figure out how to make it happen, and somehow make it even better than I imagined.

And it wasn’t just the wedding — Rachel also planned my bridal shower, which was absolutely gorgeous and another perfect example of how well she understood my style and vision. Having her involved in everything made the entire wedding experience feel so cohesive and special from start to finish.

She was also incredible at keeping us on track with our budget, helping us figure out where it was worth spending, and managing the million little details that go into a wedding of this scale. I never felt like I had to chase anything or worry that something was being missed. She was organized, calm, honest, responsive, and just SO easy and fun to work with.

And then the actual wedding… I was absolutely blown away. Walking into the room and seeing everything we had talked about for months actually brought to life was surreal. Every detail was beyond what I had envisioned. I was able to be completely present, have the best night of my life, and not think about logistics for even one second because I knew Rachel and her team had it covered.

Our wedding truly felt like a dream, and so much of that is because of Rachel. She took all of my crazy ideas and turned them into the most magical, beautiful, FUN night. I genuinely cannot imagine planning our wedding without her. If I could do it all over again, I would choose Rachel 100 times over. 🤍

Rachel and her team worked with us tirelessly for months planning our son’s wedding weekend which took place over Labor Day. Her attention to detail is incredible, she has great ideas, strong vendor relationships, and really listened to all of us - especially my son and daughter-in-law - to truly understand their vision. And she executed it! Rachel is also a lovely person and easy to work with it. She gets along with everyone - a real gift. I would recommend her without any caveats!!

My, now wife (!), and I worked with Lizzie from RBE for our wedding, and had nothing but a positive experience. Lizzie helped us every step of the way from sourcing vendors, to pinning down contracts, and even handling unexpected changes in vendor’s offerings. She was always quick to respond to any of our questions, had the timelines and deadlines available at a moment’s notice, and kept us organized.
 
We would regularly said to each other that we wouldn’t have been able to have the wedding we did without Lizzie. Planning a wedding, especially in the city, is always going to have a lot of moving pieces, but working with Lizzie and RBE was one of the best ways we set ourselves up to have the most magical day.

RBE is incredible. Lizzie and Rachel planned our June 2026 wedding and we could not have been more impressed. They were organized, thoughtful and supported us throughout the entire process. No task was too large or small for them. They understood our vision and helped us find the perfect vendors to bring it to life. Clear communication throughout the entire planning process. They are also just wonderful humans to work with - highly recommend working with them.

After months of research, we ultimately chose RBE based on our initial positive impressions from a meeting and all of the extremely positive reviews. I can now confirm that those reviews are 100% accurate and truthful in their praise of RBE services!

We worked with Lizzie Torrance for our Williamsburg Wedding at Misi Restaurant in April, and can't recommend her and RBE enough. Like our wedding was literally 2 days ago and we couldn't wait to write this review. Lizzie is the ultimate professional, handling everything timely, seamlessly, and calmly - literally all the things you want AND need during this time. RBE had a very comprehensive set of tools and resources for the planning process, and sent just the right amount of reminders and recaps to keep us on track without being overwhelming. She coordinated and communicated with vendors and was super adept at filtering to us only what we needed to weigh in on. On the day, Lizzie and the RBE team were on it, managing the people, multiple venues, timeline, and all the behind-the-scenes details we probably didn't even know were happening so that we didn't have to think or worry about anything. If you want 100% confidence that your wedding will run perfectly, then ya gotta go with Lizzie and RBE.

Rachel, Lizzie and the rest of her team were truly incredible to work with. Their attention to every detail, their commitment and their support through the whole wedding process was everything we could have asked for. We feel so lucky and grateful to have worked with RBE. They made my dream wedding become a reality!!

Rachel Behar is THE BEST!!! I truly can’t put into words how incredible it was to have Rachel and her team as my wedding planner—I wouldn’t change a single thing about our experience...it was PERFECT!! Even though Rachel has been in the business for years, she made me feel like I was her only client. From day one, she was always three steps ahead. So organized, quick to answer every question, and if she didn’t have the answer, she found out immediately.

She was open to all of my ideas while also bringing her own creative vision, which made our wedding feel so unique, and truly “us.” She was always willing to try something new instead of repeating the same formula, which made our day feel special and personalized. Each month she kept us on track with updates, reminders, and clear timelines, making the whole process stress-free. And speaking of stress-free...day of our wedding, I didn't have a worry in sight. I stress about everything, but she allowed me to stay in the moment, not worry about anything, and everything was taken care of.

Beyond being an amazing planner, Rachel became a true friend. I’ve seen planners who are harsh or overly strict, but Rachel led with kindness and confidence—she got everything done without ever being intimidating. Every vendor who had worked with her before had glowing things to say; whenever I mentioned her name, the response was always, “You’re in the best hands.” And they were absolutely right.

Even after the wedding, Rachel checked in to see how our honeymoon went and how we were doing, which meant so much. If you’re considering hiring Rachel—do it. You will not regret it. Thank you, Rachel, for everything! 💕

We worked with Lizzie at RBE for our October wedding and cannot recommend her enough! Over the past year, Lizzie went above and beyond to bring our vision to life and to create a weekend that felt so us and so perfect in every way. Months later, we still receive compliments from our guests that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. We truly couldn’t have done it without Lizzie’s professionalism, organization, kindness, and support!

From the start, Lizzie really took the time to understand what we were looking for in our wedding and was patient, flexible, and responsive. She introduced us to incredible vendors that she and the RBE team have strong relationships with, while also going out of her way to find new and different options to ensure that every aspect of our wedding perfectly fit our vision. In a place like New York where the options can feel endless and intimidating, Lizzie made the process feel so much more manageable and smooth.

Throughout the year, Lizzie kept us on track and organized, breaking down the planning process into monthly checklists and spreadsheets that made us feel confident each step of the way. When things ever felt stressful or intimidating, she approached everything so calmly and with a genuine kindness, which made her the best partner we could have asked for during the process.

The weekend of our wedding, Lizzie made sure everything ran so seamlessly - we cannot thank her enough for everything she did to allow us to enjoy our time together/with our guests and not have to worry about a single thing. This was also truly invaluable for our families, who both traveled from out of town and could spend their time enjoying the weekend. We truly could not be happier with how our wedding weekend went, all thanks to Lizzie and the RBE team!
