Soirée Wedding Planning

To say that Emily and her team were simply the best is not enough to express how happy I am that I hired Soiree Events. From our initial meeting with Emily I knew that she was the right person to help us plan our wedding. She was responsive, easy to talk to and never made me feel my wedding was not a priority to her although I know she is very busy! She is very honest and upfront about pricing and services included. I felt she went above and beyond on MANY MANY occasions. In my line of work I tend to have very high expectations of people and their performance and she exceeded my expectations consistently. Not only did her team make our wedding day run smoothly, they were prepared, relaxed and I truly felt that it was more than just a job for them. Emily is truly a professional in every sense of the word. When we had to postpone our wedding in 2020 she provided support, honest guidance and helped us reschedule everything for 2021. I know it was not an easy task. She made my fiancée and I feel comfortable to ask candid questions about all things wedding related which I very much appreciated. She also had the great advice on how to make the best of our time that day as it does fly by! Soiree Events will work with your wedding budget while helping you decide what matters most to you. Emily and her team take the time to really listen to what is important to you as a bride (and the groom!) and help make your vision come to life. Her recommendations for vendors were spot on. I grew up in Des Moines and have many friends and family in the city. Now my husband and I live in Newport Beach California. I was happy to hear that everyone Emily recommended for photography, makeup etc was highly regarded by my friends in Des Moines ( some of which are events coordinators themselves). I knew I was getting the best of the best in Des Moines! As the wedding planning progressed many of my friends and family commented on how calm I seemed and I told them I had no doubt my wedding would be amazing since I knew I was in good hands. I’ve been asked by many other women who are newly engaged what my top advice would be and each time I say “hire a wedding coordinator”. It was truly the best decision regarding my wedding I made after saying yes to the man of my dreams of course :). Ladies, do your future self a favor and hire Soiree Events! I have planned a ton of events in my lifetime - from being Vice President of recruitment for my sorority in college for 2 years and planning 4 day long recruitment (rush) events to planning firm events for 100+ professionals- I consider myself to be pretty good at amateur event planning. When it’s YOUR day you don’t want to have any stress or worry - you just want to enjoy. You don’t want to have your family or bridesmaids worrying about a timeline or any details. You want everyone around you to be happy and relaxed. If if you have that, you’ll have the best memories of your wedding. And your new husband will too!
