    Very Attentive!

    Debbie was such an attentive planner. She helped my husband and I plan a virtual wedding during a huge time crunch. She handled our Zoom wedding efficiently and created an amazing set-up for our wedding. She was even able to find all of the decorations I needed at the last minute (3 weeks). Debbie was creative and helped me execute all of things I wanted for our wedding day. We truly appreciate how she helped us and we are looking forward to working with her when we have our formal reception next year.

    Amazing!!!!

    First thing, Debbie is amazing. She is professional, courteous, very organized and super talented! She has a gift of being able to bring your vision to life. She was with us every step of the journey to our wedding day. There are so many aspects to consider when planning a wedding, so many things that we hadn’t thought about...but Debbie was prepared for everything. She handled every hurdle that was sent her way with grace. My husband and I absolutely loved how our wedding turned out. It was more beautiful than we could have imagined.

    Bittersweet Memories...

    Where do I begin? From the very start Debbie and her team at A La Mode Events were super helpful and available to answer all my questions and help I work out my anxiety. We worked with A La Mode for our Bridal Shower as well! And everything was perfect! I strongly recommend A La Mode Events for all your wedding planning needs, there’s nothing that you’ll need that Debbie won’t go over with you, and help you get for your special day. From choosing your venue to hiring vendors, Debbie has great connections. Although Debbie has the greatest ideas, she will always put your needs and preferences first. Oh I almost forgot, she will try to help you stay in budget. Debbie is detailed oriented and follows up on everything! We had a huge bridal party and 250 guests, and still we were never stressed out or had questions that she could not answer. My husband and I have the fondest memories, not only of our special day but the whole process. It was during the last few months of our wedding planning that my dad was diagnosed with Stage 3 Colon Cancer. And, we contemplated postponing the wedding. I felt I just could not continue planning such a happy day, with my dad fighting for his life. Debbie was supportive and gave me time to process. After my then fiancé and I discussed our concerns and fears with each other, my dad, family and a few close friends, we decided to go ahead and have our wedding. Debbie's support in those dark days will always be carved on my heart. Debbie took the lead and made sure I didn’t overlook any details, especially in the state of mind I was in. My dad was diagnosed in July '18 and on September 23rd 2018, we had our special day. We were able to experience our big day with a calm feeling and excitement still in our hearts, I was not worried about a thing. There was no need to worry. I had all the confidence that everything would be beautifully and elegantly done, and it was! Debbie was amazing. A La Mode Events can be trusted with your biggest dreams and for me even while facing a huge family crisis. Debbie is not only a great planner and organizer, she is a beautiful human being. Debbie is passionate and you won't feel like a client, you'll feel special every step of he way. Debbie she even wrote a book for all brides to be, it’s on Amazon!
    Thank you so much Debbie and A La Mode Events, we truly appreciate you!

    Debbie Louis-Cesar authored a great wedding planning journal, a book for all brides to be, it was helpful get it! it’s on Amazon!

    Best Wedding Ever

    Debbie is an amazing planner. Completely trust worthy and professional. She coordinated every aspect of the day to perfection. Things that we didn't think about, were done so elegantly and beautiful. She prayed with us and is a truly genuine/ reliable individual. We can't thank Debbie and her team enough for making our day truly amazing. They went far beyond our expectations and provided excellent service. A La Mode Weddings & Events is the absolute best and we couldn't have asked for better people, and we can honestly say, we had the best wedding we've ever been to thanks to Debbie and her team. Thank you so much for all you and your team did!

    No detail forgotten

    Debbie paid close attention to every detail of my three day wedding experience in Italy and made sure I was also able to enjoy myself. The most special detail she managed to remember on the very busy wedding day was to ensure my daughter had on her protective headphones when the surprise fireworks went off! The thought makes me tear up because honestly I would have forgotten and that may have ruined that moment for my baby which would have ruined it for us! Debbie is the best and if I could do it all over again I’d hire her every time!! She’s the best wedding present we gifted ourselves!!

    A la Mode Events is a must have for your wedding day!

    Debbie was absolutely amazing! I hired her for day of coordination and was not disappointed. As a low-key, no-fuss, last minute bride (I planned a wedding in less than 3 months), Debbie definitely knew that I wanted all of the glitz and glamour without the headache. She pulled together the decor, florals, and vendor coordination in less than one month's time. She transformed our very non-traditional wedding and reception venue into a cozy and chic location for our intimate affair. As with almost all weddings, there are kinks and issues that can send a bride into a spiral, but Debbie made sure that our day was everything that we had hoped for and helped this anxious bride stay calm. She and her staff even DJ'd our reception when our playlist refused to work! I am so happy that my husband and I chose Debbie of A la Mode Weddings & Events to execute our big day. I am truly thankful for her professionalism, creativity, and dedication on one of the most important days of my life! I HIGHLY recommend her services for all of your wedding coordination needs!

    Wedding Day Superwoman

    I was referred by another coordinator that was unavailable for my wedding date. I didn't have a budget for a full wedding planner, but I knew I needed some guidance, expertise and a day of coordinator. Debbie fulfilled my expectations and beyond.
    From day one conversation, I felt comfort as if she was just a friend. There came a time when I was no longer able to afford certain things and she did everything in her power to help me work around the numbers and still make my wedding vision come true.
    What I like most is that she was honest and upfront in a pleasant way, and came with a great amount of options and expertise that fit my vision.
    I loved even more that my numerous emails were answered in a timely manner and she never made me feel as though I was a bother.
    My wedding day had small uncontrollable kinks, but Debbie was my superwoman and made sure I was calm all the way through. I tend to be a micro-manager, but she took charge where and when I needed her to be.
    I honestly had the best day ever and it wouldn't have been possible without her.

    Fantastic experience.

    Debbie was fantastic. She pulled together our wedding in about one month's time. She was grace under pressure, never stressing or fussing. She was professional, responsive, a great negotiator and advocate with vendors, and incredibly patient. The best!

    Debbie was amazing! We got married at the Prospect Park Picnic House which requires everything to be brought in. She expertly coordinated all of our details on the day of and helped with setting up the room exactly to are tastes. She is organized and prompt with all her responses even when requests were last minute. Beyond her planning expertise, she is a generally a pleasure to be around and a calming presence in a process that can be chaotic and overwhelming!

    Debbie was a phenomenal planner who went up and beyond to make our day as smooth as possible . From the first day we met she was warm and genuine and very thorough. What I loved most was she was always one step ahead of my process. I planned my wedding myself and used her “Day of services”. She was able to swoop in and take the reins effortlessly. She created on the spot solutions when I was stressed and was always caring and understanding. Last minute she saved the day with an amazing hair stylist reference as well as an ice cream vendor recommendation. Both of which added a special touch to my day. She was punctual with every meeting and very professional as she got along with all of our vendors. When our wedding ended she was there in the trenches helping the vendors pack and personally making sure we were ok. Thoughtful and caring is the kind of person she is . We made the best decision choosing Debbie to be our day of planner and I especially am ever so grateful for her
    services. I would highly recommend her with no hesitancy.

    Debbie from A La Mode events made my vision into reality. She is a woman of her word and I've gotten a chance to watch her work really hard in person as my vision came to life. My husband and I got married at my sister in law's new home, right in the living room. Debbie came all the way from NY to West Philadelphia by herself and transformed the living room into the wedding of my dreams. The day of my wedding, Debbie made sure I was fed and pampered. She also made herself available to make sure my husband looked handsome for our big day. She even catered to my family and my in-laws. She did everything I needed her to do from start to finished. And I am so blessed and truly happy to have had her by my side throughout this whole journey! She is a true definition of black girl magic. Thank you Debbie and A La Mode Events.

    I used Debbie from A La Mode for my day of coordinator. My wedding was on 08/19/2017 and though I planned it myself, I wanted someone to be there (other than family) to make sure my day and my vision went perfectly. I checked out quite a few wedding coordinators, but after speaking with Debbie, I knew she was the one. Even though, I just booked her for "day coordinator" package, she was still very helpful in other areas of my planning process. She gave good recommendations, make up; videographer and after visiting the venue where my wedding was kept, she gave ideas of different things that I can do to enhance the place. Debbie was accessible and when I got the opportunity to see her work on my wedding day, I realized that she is truly a Gem. She was patient, she made sure the venue, DJ/MC and my other vendors did everything that I requested. I had nothing to worry about. She got me and my family for photos. When my husband kissed off my lipstick, she made sure my lipstick was ready for me and she told me that it needed to be applied. I could not have asked for a better person on my side on that special day.
    Thank you Debbie for making our wedding day go smoothly it was MONEY well spent - and she is affordable.

    PLEASE BOOK A LA MODE TO COORDINATE YOUR EVENT!!! I was lucky enough to have Debbie and her assistant, Stacy, as my Wedding Day Coordinators. Believe me, they took care of EVERY SINGLE DETAIL. From coordinating our preparation and travel time, putting together our wedding program, and making sure every thing was exactly how I envisioned it, Debbie took care of it all! My wedding ceremony ran over the allotted time and my bridal party was late to the garden where we were supposed to take pictures. Debbie negotiated an extra 30 minutes just so that I could take the pictures of my dreams. What I appreciated most is that Debbie made sure everything went well. With every wedding, things are bound to go wrong - disaster will strike somehow! BUT! With Debbie, I did not know whether anything went wrong. My wedding day was perfect because when something went wrong or was about to go wrong, DEBBIE TOOK CARE OF IT! Seriously, book A La Mode for your wedding planning, coordination, decorating, bridal styling needs! The attention to detail, professionalism, and can-do attitude cannot be beat!
