Amazing experience

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
5 stars isn’t enough to rate my experience with Ophelia. Ophelia with What’s the O’cassion was nothing short of amazing. From the very beginning Ophelia and I instantly clicked, a true match made in heaven. She seamlessly connected me with the most incredible vendors and created a POWERHOUSE team for our wedding day. Throughout the entire process, Ophelia's unwavering support ensured I remained calm and confident, always putting our best interests at heart. Our wedding day was truly a dream come true, thanks to Ophelia's exceptional guidance, professionalism and expertise. I would recommend Ophelia to anyone, she the woman to get the job done and she’s going to get it done right. I’m looking forward to the next event that I get to work with Ophelia and her incredible team!

One of the best in the business!

Ophelia and her team are exceptional. Our venue absolutely loved working with her, due to her professionalism and communication. The quality of her work is also obvious in the fantastic vendors she used. The caterer, bartender, drape and lighting, and decorators were equally as wonderful. We wish all our clients were as easy to work with as Ophelia. Thanks for everything!

Great Service

Ophelia and her team was the best. The day of the ceremony she wore many hats and handle ever obstacle that came her way. I didn’t have to worry about anything. Honestly it was a relief because on that day I just wanted to be a bride and her team made sure of that 🤍🤍

Excellent experience and they handle the day with perfection

. WTO is the best!!! Let me just start there first.

My sister had a beautiful wedding and 2 weeks later folks are still talking about it. But baby behind the scenes we had to put in some serious work and WTO was right there quarterbacking plays and making touchdowns!!! It stormed cats and dogs on the day of the wedding. We lost power. The transformer at the church caught on fire... It was a lot. WTO jumped into action and started developing a contingency plan when it was abundantly clear the church didn't have one. WTO kept us (the bridal party, bride, and groom) calm, attended to the guest, while also on the phone with the electric company to get power back on while also coming up with a plan if they could not deliver. We had a plan A, B, and C. And thank God we got to use plan A! And we only started 30 minutes later considering all that had transpired. WTO never lost their professionalism and they made it happen.

As the Matron of Honor. I had WTO on speed dial the ENTIRE Day. Every call, text, question, or concern was answered and handled. So yes I highly recommend it. Because no matter how much you plan and prepare some things will be out of your control and you need a professional time that can handle the impossible.
WTO is the Olivia Pope of weddings and events. Put them on your team.

Engagement Proposal

Ophelia was exceptional, I reached out to her to help plan my proposal with only a week's notice. Ophelia was very punctual, professional, and was very responsive. As soon as I officially booked Ophelia she got straight to work. I didn't have to check-in with her or ask her for any updates, she was on top of everything. When I arrived the day of the proposal, the vision I painted for Ophelia to create, exceeded my expectations and most of all my fiancée's.. 10/10 Recommend

Whats O'ccasion? Means ANY O'ccasion

I ran across O when I first started planning but I had another vendor in mind that I had been watching. However that set up didn't work so I was back on the hunt. And this Ophelia name kept popping up. So I figured it had to be a sign. She had reached out from the recommendations so I have a brief text convo with her. Long story short we had a call. Perfect match! My husband and her met and we both were connected. He normal doesn't like people. But he sense the compassion and professionalism. Fun and very very good at what she does. I did full planning with her and she delivered! Exceedingly. When issues arose she was there. When I texted her at 2am she responded. NO QUESTIONS. I can't recommend another person in this world other than the lovely Ophelia Childress to be apart of your day. Making it special. If there was a problem at my wedding I literally know nothing of it. She handled it. And let me not forget her crew. There was a lovely lady by the name of Jarrise. She was so polite and sweet and help in was I'm sure she didn't know. I've got a bond with WTO for for life and every O'ccasion.

High Quality, First class event planning!

10 out of 10 from beginning to end! Every detail of this event was planned with so much thought and care. The details fit my personality perfectly. The process was easy. I had no stress at all. There is a timeline that is used and a communication hub with all information related to your event. I loved this tool. He helped me to see the plan and fully trust WTO to execute. And, Ophelia and her team did not disappoint!
