Flawless planning experience!

Working with Rachel and Amy was great. They made the process easy and were so creative and responsive. We had lots of questions along the way and they were always available to help and guide us with our event. The final outcome was perfect and everyone had a blast!

Best wedding planner!

Can’t think of anyone better to have planned my baby sister’s wedding. Rachel is fabulous and really put together an unforgettable weekend during an unprecedented time of challenges. She was calm and helpful and creative even when things kept changing due to the pandemic. Highly recommend for all your party planning needs - she thinks of everything and executes seamlessly. Thanks again!!

It was fun working with Rachel on my son's wedding. Everything went smoothly for a verycomplicated process.
I would recommend using her to anyone interested in working with someone who knows New Orleans intimately and is tireless in making sure things get done perfectly.

I am so glad we chose to work with Rachel from Sterling Events for our NOLA wedding!! I had no idea what I was getting in to as far as wedding planning went, and she made the entire experience a breeze. Rachel has formed relationships with a variety of quality vendors all throughout the city. She suggested people/companies for us who did professional and beautiful work in the price points that we needed, facilitated and attended face to face meetings with us and our vendors, and knew all of the right questions to ask (because I most certainly didn't!). Rachel kept all of our information organized for us and frequently reminded us of due dates for various wedding related tasks and payments. She was always available and willing to chat and always gave me straight answers and opinions when I needed them. Our wedding turned out EXACTLY as we hoped and dreamed (she made sure to always ask for our wants and visions), pretty much singlehandedly because of Rachel. Our guests continue to tell us what amazing little details and personal touches we had in all areas of our wedding, which were mostly suggested by her. I really cannot say enough about the quality of service we received from Sterling Events. Our wedding was beautiful and perfect, and we are so thankful we chose to work with Rachel.

Rachel Frank (who runs Sterling Events) was essential in making my wedding day the best day imaginable! She really knows the ins and outs of weddings in New Orleans, and her first-hand experience was invaluable. From vendors to out-of-the-box ideas, Rachel knows what works! She was also extremely flexible - she even came to my house for an early morning planning session when I was crunched on time. My wedding was exactly what I dreamed it would be - full of love and fun - and also seemless. Thank you, Rachel!

Over two years later and people are STILL talking about my wedding! Rachel was exceptional - her knowledge of NOLA locations and vendors is extensive. She's amazing at details and made sure we had every little thing we needed to make the event memorable. I'd work with her every day if I could!
