Don’t think twice - hire Sara Landon

The best decision you’ll make after choosing your partner is choosing Sara Landon.

We originally found Sara when looking for planners in the upstate New York area, fell in love with her on our phone interview, and then were sad to change our plans to a small and intimate destination wedding to a rural island in the Bahamas. As the coordination logistics in getting guests to the Bahamas became more complicated it was clear we needed help, so we immediately called Sara back and booked her.

Best decision ever. Sara is, all rolled into one, a highly organized planner, a motivational coach, a cruise ship director, an artistic visionary, a therapist, a masterful negotiator, a shoulder to cry on, and a friend to have a laugh with. We hired Sara three days before our site visit fully expecting to go on our own and she showed up to be there with us — an international trip during Covid — on three days notice. We found out there was no florist on the island - no problem, Sara foraged for flowers and leaves and built our arrangements herself. Our band, makeup artist, priest, and entertainment all threatened to no-show - no problem, Sara made secondary and tertiary plans and never even let us know there was an issue. Sara even signed our marriage license when we ran into some trouble with getting our priest to do it.

Probably the best part about working with Sara is that she made us feel like we were the only bride and groom she was handling. Our guests raved about her and her team and she worked tirelessly (literally, 7am to 2am on our wedding day after a whole week of other events) to make sure every detail was perfect.

Don’t think twice about hiring Sara, no matter how big or small your wedding. You won’t regret it!

The best wedding planner!

Words truly cannot describe how incredible Sara is. From our very first intro call, she went above and beyond to show how much she cares about her couples and making sure that the wedding process is not only seamless and beautiful but fun and enjoyable for the couple. My husband and I knew right away that she was the one! Almost immediately with very little direction, Sara understood our vision for the wedding and jumped in with every tiny detail. We used Sara for full planning for our Manhattan wedding at Tribeca Rooftop and it was singlehandedly the BEST decision we made for our wedding. She brought skill, professionalism, expertise, a positive attitude, humor, and impeccable taste and design vision to every element of our day. What makes Sara stand out from any other wedding planner is that no task is too simple and no decision is too small for her to weigh in, guide you, and offer her brilliant expertise. She is ALL IN on her couples and it truly shows. She also has a skilled eye for design, so we trusted her wholeheartedly when it came to decisions for design elements for our day. She handled all communication with every single vendor, navigated dozens of logistical changes, and had an A-list team with her to make the entire wedding run seamlessly. By the end of the wedding planning process, Sara truly knew what I was going to say or choose before I did. Sara is also INCREDIBLY organized — we had SO many guests tell us after our wedding that this was the best planned, most on-time, and smooth wedding they had ever attended. One other incredible aspect of Sara as a wedding planner is that she has close relationships with all of the best vendors in the industry. This helped us get above-and-beyond service from everyone we worked with. It is SO clear how respected Sara and her team are by everyone in the wedding and hospitality industry, and we felt so lucky to be one of her couples that got to witness it firsthand. I would recommend Sara 1 million times over and would JUMP at the opportunity to work with her again. She made our wedding dreams come true and we had the most perfect day because of her.

We love Sara!

We hired Sara Landon for our wedding in Manhattan, and she was phenomenal. From the very beginning, Sara understood our vision and elevated it far beyond what we imagined. Every vendor she recommended was perfect, her day of team ran flawlessly, and every detail showed her thoughtfulness and expertise.

She was incredibly responsive and supportive throughout the entire planning process, even during my most anxious moments. Sara consistently made us feel taken care of and truly acted as our advocate.

Our wedding was everything we dreamed of because of her. If you want a planner who is organized, intuitive, professional, genuinely invested in your happiness, and will work to bring your vision to life with tenacity, Sara is it. We CANNOT recommend her enough.

Absolutely BEST experience we could have asked for

Sara is an amazing person and a consummate professional. I can’t thank her enough for all she did for us - she helped us with absolutely everything. Every decision we made was informed by her good sense, valuable experience, and sound judgement, not to mention her great poise, tact and humor.

Sara ran each meeting with vendors and with us with fantastic efficiency and skill. Her taste and design sense were unerring. The vendors she recommended and secured for us were so so good. Her attention to detail and mindfulness of our budget also on target.

She also has an excellent team for the day of our event - Travis and Jessica along with Sara Rachelle did an incredible job.

In short, Sara crushed it and we had an absolutely amazing wedding. It was over the top, as many guests attested.

Sara is The Best

Sara is a True Gem We just had me daughters wedding at Gurneys Montauk and hired Sara for Full Planning of The Weekend and Design. From the minute we connected with Sara we Lived Her calm ,professional and fun outlook on the world of wedding planning. She is Very Orgamized and paid attention to every detail of all aspects in making My Daughters vision come to Life
Her Design Taste Level is Impeccable. Our whole wedding weekend was truly magical and beautiful, and this also coincides with Sara’s expertise not only knowing what she does , but selecting the correct vendors to use. Our families have not stopped getting raves and beautiful reviews on the whole weekend and we are so thankful and grateful.

Wouldn’t change a thing!!!!

We don't know where to start except to say that we are soooo appreciative of Sara and her team. We hired Sara for a month of coordinator package, and she stepped in one month prior to our wedding (although she never hesitated at all to get on the phone with us well in advance of the month prior to answer any and all of our questions and assist with vendor recommendations). No question was silly for Sara - she answered everything so thoroughly and confidently. We know that there was a ton of behind the scenes work that she did in the month leading up to our wedding, and we are so thankful for all her organization and instruction, but we were just blown away by how smoothly everything went on wedding day. We felt at ease the entire day knowing that she had everything under control. She took care of requests immediately, made us feel relaxed and calm, and allowed us to feel like guests not hosts. We had the most special night and are thrilled with how everything turned out. We couldn’t recommend her more highly. It was such a pleasure to work with her, and we will be sending her referrals for years to come!!!

On time, budget and vision!

Sara Landon Events was invaluable in helping us bring to life the vision that we had for our daughter's wedding at Sleepy Hollow Country Club. We used the full service for planning and execution of the entire weekend of events (from rehearsal dinner to Sunday send-off brunch) and we couldn't be happier. Sara's attention to detail was impeccable and she was able to pivot quickly when factors beyond our control (ie., weather) threatened to force us indoors. She also has a great relationship with all of the vendors that we chose so this relieved me of this aspect too. I was truly a guest at my daughter's wedding. I am so grateful for Sara and her team!

The best wedding decision we made!

We had our wedding at Lyndhurst Mansion in July 2023. We hired Sara Landon to be our full planner for our big day. When we met Sara, we immediately loved her sense of style, organization and the plethora of knowledge she offered. Sara was very mindful of our budget and worked with us to ensure we remained very much in budget - which was no easy feat! Her vendor recommendations were in our budget range and were professional and prompt. Our wedding day could not have been more perfect. Everything was managed by her and her amazing staff to perfection. If she could have controlled the smattering of rain that happened, we know she would have stopped it! We would recommend Sara to anyone who would like a memorable, wonderful, worry-free event!

Best Planner Experience!

Sara was so incredible to work with. Our weekend could not have been executed more perfectly. We were able to just relax and have fun! Her team took care of everything. She really helped my vision come to life, helped me pick out the most amazing vendors to match our budget perfectly, and even helped manage family dynamics! She was a dream, couldn't recommend her more!
