An Absolutely Incredible Wedding Planning Team!
I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Rebecca, Joanna, and the entire Rebecca Grace Events team! They were absolutely instrumental in making our wedding weekend at Blue Hill at Stone Barns everything we had dreamed of and more. My only regret is that we didn't hire them from the very beginning!
We initially worked with another wedding planner who essentially ghosted us midway through the planning process, leaving us frustrated, behind schedule, and unsure of how to move forward. Thankfully, Blue Hill at Stone Barns recommended Rebecca Grace Events, and from the moment Rebecca and Joanna stepped in, everything changed for the better.
They immediately took the initiative to connect with all of our existing vendors, familiarize themselves with the plans already in place, and get our planning process back on track. Their organization, attention to detail, and communication were exceptional. We particularly appreciated their monthly check-in emails, which outlined upcoming deadlines, outstanding decisions, and everything we needed to focus on. They were always available to answer questions, offer thoughtful suggestions, and help us navigate decisions without ever being pushy or trying to impose their own vision. They respected our preferences and never pressured us to work with specific vendors, which was incredibly refreshing.
Their execution throughout our wedding weekend was just as impressive as their planning. Rebecca and Joanna were there for our entire rehearsal dinner and welcome party on Friday, as well as throughout our wedding day on Saturday. Their additional support teams were fantastic—attentive, responsive, professional, and always one step ahead. Our families repeatedly commented on how well taken care of they felt throughout the weekend, and that meant so much to us.
What really sets Rebecca Grace Events apart is their ability to anticipate needs, solve problems, and handle unexpected situations without creating unnecessary stress for the couple. When our table numbers were accidentally forgotten during packing, Joanna generously offered us the table numbers from her own wedding! During our first dance, a guest accidentally tripped over a speaker cord, causing a brief technical issue. Joanna and our bandleader immediately jumped into action, worked together to find a solution, and got everything back on track. Rather than allowing these little hiccups to become stressful moments, they handled them with professionalism, creativity, and grace.
As someone who has worked professionally in the events and hospitality industry for years, I have an especially deep appreciation for the amount of coordination, preparation, and behind-the-scenes work required to execute an event seamlessly. Rebecca and Joanna are truly exceptional at what they do. Their professionalism, flexibility, attention to detail, and genuine commitment to their clients were evident at every stage of the process.
Most importantly, they allowed us to be fully present and enjoy our wedding weekend without worrying about logistics or what was happening behind the scenes. We were able to spend time with our friends and family, soak in every moment, and trust that everything was being handled.
Our wedding was truly perfect and exceeded even our highest expectations. We could not have asked for a better team to guide us through the planning process and bring our vision to life.
If you are considering hiring Rebecca Grace Events, do not hesitate! Rebecca, Joanna, and their team are absolutely wonderful, and we will forever be grateful for the role they played in making our wedding weekend so special. I would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone planning a wedding!
