An Absolute Dream!!! 🤍🤍🤍

Simply Grater Events is the gold standard of wedding planning/coordination!!! Working with Emma was an absolute privilege and I cannot say more whole heartedly that she is the hands down best you could ask for to help plan or even just coordinate your event.

My wedding came with more than a few bumps in the road and Emma took care of everything (even a very very rude and deceptive florist) with confidence, poise, and skilled expertise. She made me (a very nervous bride) feel more calm and confident about my wedding and my husband and our families loved working with her too. I will absolutely be using Emma’s services again and I urge anyone to hire her! She will not only help deliver a seamlessly beautiful event but also help create an environment for you and your guests that’s unique, elegant and timeless.

Emma is a true leader and force of nature when it comes to planning and executing the perfect event. My wedding would have never been the absolute dream it was without her. Emma TRUELY helped me have the most beautiful wedding day and helped me TRUELY enjoy it by eliminating all of my stress.

The best!!!

I cannot sing Emma’s praises enough!!! We hired Emma as a month-of coordinator and are fully convinced she is the sole reason our wedding went off without a hitch! We had over 200 people and our ceremony was at a different location from our reception—no small undertaking—and from the moment we started working together, we knew our wedding was in good hands. Emma is extremely organized and has the perfect demeanor for this type of work. When I was actively pulling my hair out with stress (and a venue that was less than forthcoming about a conflict with our event space), Emma stepped up and made sure everything went smoothly, all while remaining calm, cool and collected. Emma was SO easy to work with and is a pleasure to be around. She also has a great inventory of items to bolster your décor—we ended up renting a card box and table numbers from her that she printed and designed with our names on it! She helped us hone our vision and refine our timeline, all while making sure everything was finalized to our liking! She put out every fire that popped up and truly felt like our wedding day guardian angel.

Do yourself a favor and book Simply Grater Events!!!

Amazing--hire emma!

TL;DR: If you want an insanely organized stress free day, hire Emma!

It's taken me almost 6 months post wedding to write this review because I truly did not know how to put into words how amazing working with Emma was. I remember having our initial phone call and stressing about everything. I had no idea what I was doing when it came to wedding planning and I felt this insane pressure to have this picture perfect day. Emma was absolutely amazing at calming me down and reassuring me that everything would be okay. We hired Emma for Day of Coordination and Design and she blew every expectation out of the water. Emma took the chaos of my brain and the million ideas I had and created a beautiful design board to work off from. Along with our photographer Emma helped create a timeline for the day full of intention. The day before the wedding we dropped of all wedding details and decor at the venue. I went into my wedding day having no stress about how the day would go or the venue would look because I knew Emma would absolutely nail every single detail. Emma is insanely professional and detailed oriented. She knows this business so well. More than that she is just an insanely kind and thoughtful human being. I truly cannot recommend Emma enough for day of coordination.
