I cannot possibly reccommend Stephanie highly enough. We worked with her for a partial planning package for our wedding, and she did more than I ever could have imagined. While planning our wedding, people were quick to tell me not to be upset when things inevitably went wrong on the day-of - but they were clearly not working with Stephanie! I can honestly not think of a single detail about our day that I would have changed, nor any "speedbumps" along the way, because she handled any problems on the horizon before we even knew about them.
To give you just one example of her service: when Stephanie offers a vendor reccommendation, she not only sends an excellent suggestion - she uses her extensive industry connections to find multiple wonderful options, after making sure they are available for your date, sends price quotes specific to your wedding, and even recommends one or two from the list based on the specific style of the event. Not to mention, she answers emails seemingly within the hour every time.
Plus, her style is so on point! She made our day happen with the details and reminders and helpful hints, yes, but she also made it oh so beautiful. I completely trusted her opinions, and being an out-of-town bride was happy to let her "do her thing" when picking out linens, etc. because I knew her choices would be perfect for the style I envisioned for our day.
More importantly to me, though, is that Stephanie is an absolute joy to work with. She is one of the most positive people I have interacted with, and we share a love for exclamation points! Stephanie is not just a vendor to hire - she is a coach, partner, stand-in-bridesmaid if need be, and if we lived in the same place I would want to hang out with her all the time. She has the ability to greet a delicate situation, talk you through it, and somehow leave you feeling like you just had the best day all week. I am so grateful to her for making our wedding day the best time of my life!

Stephanie Shaul Events

Hiring Stephanie Shaul as our daughter's wedding planner was one of the very best decisions we made for our daughter’s wedding. From start to finish, she was an absolute joy to work with and made the entire planning process smooth, organized, and stress-free.
Stephanie has the perfect personality for what she does — calm, kind, and endlessly professional. She’s incredibly communicative, keeping us informed through regular meetings, detailed emails, and quick responses whenever we had questions. No matter what came up, she was never rattled, always handling everything with grace and confidence.
Her level of organization is exceptional. Stephanie created thoughtful, detailed timelines — both long-term planning schedules and minute-by-minute outlines for the wedding day — ensuring that every detail was executed flawlessly.
We were also so impressed by how financially astute she is. Stephanie helped us stay within budget without ever compromising on quality or beauty. It’s rare to find someone who combines creativity and financial wisdom so seamlessly — but she does both brilliantly.
She also has wonderful relationships with top vendors, which made the entire process easier and gave us access to incredible talent and service.
Despite her deep experience and skill, Stephanie never comes across as overly assertive or egotistical. She is down-to-earth, gracious, and genuinely invested in making your day special. Working with her felt like having a trusted friend by our side every step of the way.
We can’t recommend Stephanie Shaul Events highly enough — she is truly the complete package and helped make our daughter’s wedding a positively enjoyable and memorable experience. The experience was so great, we are using her again as our other daughter is engaged to be married as well!

Fantastic experience - Highly recommend!

Working with Stepanie was the best decision we made for our wedding! From the moment we started working with her, we felt completely taken care of. Stephanie created a beautiful design within our budget, found all our vendors (who were incredible), coordinated all the contracts, and kept track of all the many to-dos throughout the planning process. In addition, she was positive, encouraging, and supportive throughout the process - she made the entire planning process so much fun!

My husband and I have crazy busy jobs and were planning our wedding out of state, but we never once were worried about how our wedding would come together. From the beginning, Stephanie planned out the timing for when we needed to accomplish each step - getting vendors booked, finalizing the guest list, creating invitations, organizing bridesmaid/groomsmen gifts, etc. She made wedding planning incredibly fun and stress-free - I was never worried about what we needed to do next. Each step of the way, Stephanie was organized, communicated easily, answered all our random questions as they came up, and did everything with plenty of time to spare.

Stephanie's design of the wedding was above and beyond what we expected. She understood the look and feel we were aiming for and pulled together many options and visuals to help us nail down the perfect look. We were in love with the final reveal of our reception hall - it was perfect for us!

When it came to the wedding weekend, everything went perfectly! Stephanie and her team made sure everything went smoothly - we didn't even know if there were any hiccups in the day - she had already taken care of them.

We highly recommend working with Stephanie for your wedding - you won't regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
