Amazing, worth every penny!

Beth is AMAZING at what she does. We could not have survived our wedding without her. She is confident, organized and very knowledgeable. She also brought a lot of fun energy! She helped us address a lot of little details we never considered. When we needed guidance she helped us figure out what we want. She directed us to other incredible vendors like our photographer. As it got close to the wedding she was always available and quick to respond. She even added an extra meeting when I was stressed and felt like I needed to make sure we were on the right path with getting things done. When I started to panic about decor she sent me photos and even doodles to help me envision it which was not only helpful but made me laugh. Her and her team made our day so amazing and memorable. I can't say enough great things about her. She instilled so much confidence that we just knew if anything happened she would take care of it. We had absolute faith and trust in her and she handled everything perfectly. She took so much stress off of us. The coordination was very reasonably priced and she helped with all the set up and break down which I found that to be not included with a lot of other places- worth every penny. After our wedding everything was packaged up right by the door so we just packed the cars and left. If you're on the fence, definitely book with this company, you'll be so glad you did!!!!

You NEED to hire Beth!

I will preface this by saying that I am not very good at event planning/emails/phone calls and was somewhat dreading wedding planning. I hired Utano Events/Beth for my day of coordinator (and later added on serving staff) at the strong recommendation from my venue. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that my wedding would not have happened without Beth! She caught so many things that I had missed during the planning process. She walked me through rental order estimates, contacted and verified details with all vendors so I didn't have to, made my decor ideas into reality...the list goes on. She has relationships with tons of vendors in the area, and if she didn't work with them before they were sure to let me know how much they enjoyed having her coordinate the wedding. If you are planning a wedding, I would highly recommend hiring Utano Events, and if you are using a more "DIY" venue that doesn't offer many services on site I would VERY highly recommend hiring them!! Worth every penny!

Day of Coordinator

We reached out to Beth because we wanted help with set up and take down on our day of. Little did we know she would help us with so much more! She truly made wedding planning feel stress free and I could relax the morning of my wedding knowing that Beth was in charge. Everything went perfectly and she is truly worth every penny. Thank you for everything!

Fantastic!!

We booked Beth for day of coordination for our wedding. She did so much more than that, it felt!! Beth was incredibly helpful for the whole month leading up to the wedding, with coordinating other vendors, setting up timelines, and asking us questions about details that we never would have thought of but were absolutely essential to the day! Beth and her assistant Shania were incredible the day of. They set everything up for us and made sure all of the major events happened when they were supposed to. They put out fires that we didn’t even know were happening and were readily available anytime we needed them, even for the littlest things! Our day would not have run as smoothly or been as perfect without them! Would highly recommend booking Utano events for your wedding!

Worth every penny!

I seriously don’t even know where to begin. Booking Beth and Utano Event & Wedding Planning was easily one of the best decisions we made — truly worth every penny (honestly, I would’ve paid double!). I booked day-of coordination, officiant services, and an extra month of planning support, and Beth delivered on all fronts. Even while navigating personal matters this past year, she was incredibly responsive and supportive — answering all my chaotic emails with patience and care. On the big day, she was absolutely instrumental in making sure everything ran smoothly. Thanks to her, I was able to be fully present and actually enjoy the day. I can’t recommend Beth and Utano Event & Wedding Planning enough!

Beth was an amazing officiant!

We hired Beth Utano as our wedding officiant at The Manor House. From start to finish, Beth's communication and professionalism was outstanding. She was very helpful in building a ceremony script that felt right and personalized to us, was super personable, and easy to work with. She went above and beyond, arriving early to our ceremony, checked in on us, coordinated with our other vendors, and made sure everything was in check. She spoke so comfortably during our ceremony and helped us with our nerves. She was perfect! We would recommend Beth's services to anyone!

Fantastic officiant

Beth & Darin felt like very seasoned veterans with wedding ceremonies. They thoroughly guided us through all the different ways we could do our ceremony and were open to any new ideas we had. Seamless correspondence and very professional, the ceremony on the day of was fantastic with Darin's presence and officiant services.
