Melanie was truly the heart and soul of our destination wedding, and we cannot recommend her highly enough! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond in every possible way. Planning a wedding from afar can be overwhelming, but Melanie made the entire process feel seamless and even fun. She spent countless hours on the phone with us, patiently answering every question, calming every worry, and thinking through every detail. Her guidance was invaluable — not only did she offer incredible creative ideas, but her advice actually saved us money in so many areas. She genuinely cared about helping us make smart decisions without sacrificing our vision. One of the most special touches was that she hand-painted plates for us. Yes — hand-painted! That level of thoughtfulness, artistry, and dedication is so special. It made our celebration feel so personal and unique, and our guests are still talking about it. She typed up our menus at no extra cost and handled every detail before, during and after our wedding. When I was panicking over a necklace on my wedding day, I called Melanie. She retrieved my necklace so graciously at another resort. We are now in communication about shipping those gorgeous plates home ❤️ Melanie is organized, responsive, creative, and deeply invested in her couples. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will treat your big day as if it were her own, Melanie is the one. We are beyond grateful for everything she did to make our dream wedding a reality. Five stars isn’t enough! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Melanie is so special in every way. We would have paid double her rate to get her again. We love you, Melanie!

From the moment we started planning our wedding, Melanie was nothing short of incredible. Her attention to detail, calm presence, and deep knowledge of Key West made every step of the process feel effortless. She brought our vision to life in ways we couldn’t have even imagined, handling every vendor, schedule, and last minute strategy session with grace and confidence. Thanks to Melanie, our wedding day and the entire week leading up to it was completely stress free and filled with joy, beauty, and unforgettable memories for us and all of our guests.

Beyond being the best planner we could have asked for, Melanie has truly become a friend. Her warmth, dedication, and genuine care went far beyond what we ever expected. Our families still talk about how magical the week was, and we know that’s because Melanie made it all happen. We are endlessly grateful to her for making our dream wedding not only a reality, but an experience we will cherish forever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Love, Britt and Ante

I cannot recommend Vicky Furman Events enough!!! Vicky was the best wedding planning decision we made... She pours her heart and soul into each wedding she plans (just look at her Instagram), and this was evident in the planning of our special day in Key West at Casa Marina April 2025.
We utilized her full planning services, meeting every other week for a full year. Vicky kept us on track and poured COUNTLESS hours into planning our wedding weekend. We immediately clicked with her – we knew and loved that there was no B.S. to be had mixed with a lot of fun and love! Planning a destination wedding may be daunting especially when it is time to choose important vendors – Vicky made everything easy and provided amazing vendor recommendations along the way. Each vendor we worked with shared with us their highest respect for Vicky, always impressed with her planning work and leadership. Not only was Vicky our planner, but she was also our advocate and became our friend in the wedding industry – this quality we learned is incredibly important to have in a wedding planner.
Vicky committed to planning the wedding of our dreams, and that it exactly was. She brought our vision to life, and then some. Because of Vicky, our wedding planning process was smooth, full of fun and laughter, and most importantly we had the best wedding day of our lives, without any stress. If you are getting married in Key West or the Florida Keys… you need the BEST of the best, Vicky Furman!

Hiring Vicky Furman as our wedding planner was hands down the best decision we made—second only to saying “yes” to the ring! We found Vicky through The Knot and were instantly impressed by her full-service planning approach. She provided us with vendor recommendations, helped manage our budget, and kept track of all the tiny details that make a wedding run smoothly.

What really makes Vicky shine is her personality—she’s incredibly detail-oriented, kind, and honest (in the most supportive way). She kept us calm, confident, and right on schedule, planning our dream wedding in just six months! She took all our preferences to heart and helped bring our vision of a laid-back, beachy celebration with friends and family to life.

Vicky is proactive, flexible, and truly passionate about what she does. She made even the trickiest challenges feel like no big deal—and handled everything with such grace that we never felt overwhelmed. One unforgettable moment: a random drunk guest tried to crash our ceremony, and Vicky handled it so quickly and discreetly (calling the police!) that not a single guest even noticed. That’s the kind of superhero she is.

On the day of the wedding, she and her team were incredibly helpful, making sure we could relax and fully enjoy every moment. She kept us informed without adding stress, and it genuinely felt like everything was under control—which it was!

On top of all that, Vicky’s sense of humor made every planning call something we looked forward to. We’re honestly a little sad the wedding’s over just because we miss talking to her! Over time, she became more than just our planner—she became a true friend.

If you’re considering Vicky Furman to help plan your wedding, do it. She will help you turn your dream into a reality with heart, style, and incredible professionalism.

I can’t even begin to explain how incredibly lucky I was to hire Vicky Furman Events. They were more than I expected or dreamed of. They made this wedding planning process a breeze.

Melanie was a priceless part of our wedding. She was so sweet and thoughtful, and I didn’t have to worry about a single thing on my day. She helped me just enjoy the day and feel like a princess. I would hire her again in an instant. Nina, her assistant was also so amazing!!! They both are fantastic and I’m so grateful to have found them.

I cannot say enough good things about Vicky and Melanie! With every decision leading up to our wedding, Vicky helped us with knowledge, compassion, and kindness! Though wedding planning is notoriously stressful, I only felt joy and excitement when it came to planning our wedding with Vicky. With their guidance and direction, our wedding day was nothing short of perfect.

Vicky worked with us for 18 months and brought to life our daughter’s vision perfectly. Vicky is calm, pays attention to detail, responsive and extremely talented. I am not one to turn things over to someone especially when it is something so personal. Vicky understood this and worked with me and guided us perfectly through all the many decisions. She is priceless!
