She’s much more than a wedding planner

What can I say about Debra? She becomes so much more than your wedding planner—she truly becomes family, and we are so happy we chose to work with her!
Her communication, industry knowledge, and guidance were exceptional. She was incredibly supportive and did an amazing job bringing my vision to life. On our wedding day, Debra and her team handled every detail seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment without a worry. I cannot recommend Debra enough to any couple looking for a planner who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. The only downside is that once the wedding is over, you have to say goodbye!

Amazing wedding planner!

Five stars doesn't feel like enough for Weddings by Debra! Our wedding was a spectacular day that was truly more than we ever thought it could be. Going into the planning process, we didn’t really have a clear vision of what we wanted, but Debra took the time to understand us and completely made it come true. If you want a wedding that exceeds your expectations, look no further!
Thank you again for making our day so special. You not only assisted our needs, but are now part of the family.
Love you dearly,
DD & Shay!!

We had the perfect wedding!

Working with our wedding planner and her incredible team was, without exaggeration, the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding journey.
Her attention to detail was nothing short of extraordinary—every element, from the smallest décor accents to the overall flow of the day, was thoughtfully curated and flawlessly executed.  The entire day felt seamless, allowing us (and our families) to be fully present and enjoy every moment without a single worry.
What stood out most was her ability to handle everything behind the scenes with such grace and professionalism. Any potential hiccups were resolved before we even knew about them, and her team worked like a well-oiled machine—kind, attentive, and always one step ahead. A popped button on the groom's jacket moments before the ceremony is one of many times Debra swooped in like a fairy Godmother and fixed the problem before we had a chance to get stressed.  
Thanks to her dedication, creativity, and expertise, the wedding day was perfect. We received countless compliments from our guests about how beautiful and well-organized everything was, and we owe that entirely to her and her team.
If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your wedding unforgettable, look no further. She is truly exceptional, and we are endlessly grateful.

Best decision ever

Working with Debra was the best decision we made throughout our wedding planning. My brother and sister-in-law worked with her for their wedding in the winter of 2020. Seeing how easy and seamless she made everything, I knew I wanted to work with her as well. She really took the time to get to know us and understand what our wedding vision was. We were in constant communication, and she made the entire process so fun and easy. We really couldn't have kept everything on track without her, especially our budget which we were able to stick to. She handled all of the vendors, and everything we didn't even think of. Her wedding staff on the day of was amazing. We worked with Lorraine and Davonne and both kept us sane, on track, and so so happy. Debra becomes your family and there is no one better to work with when planning such an important day.
