    Just when I though that things weren't going to fall into place, they did! Tamieka Jones was by my side through snow and rain to make sure that things went our way. She was open to suggestions and stuck firmly through with her game plan. there was alot of improvising that needed to be done through out our planning because of the venue. We had a wedding in a regular Romanian restaurant that wasnt to cooperative and easy going, But when Tamieka Jones was done with them, the place was transformed into a Dream. I couldn't believe the out coem and 2 weeks later people are still complimenting the overall wedding. Even the owner of the Restaurant said that was the best wediing by far that they had there. You can say I'm blessed for having a winter storm hit in October on our wedding day,lol.

    A Perfect Setting was wonderful! My original planner got really sick and I was in need of assitance right away. I live in Baltimore and was planning a wedding in New York. Finding A Perfect Setting was a blessing. Tamieka and her Team was simple a joy to work with from beginning to end. As an Executive I've worked with many national vendors for major events, I would hire A Perfect Setting to be a part of any event and know for a fact that the results would be above my expectations! They are professional, knowledgeable and resourceful while meeting our goals all at the same time.

    A perfect Setting is more than just a "Wedding planning" company. Tamieka Jones goes above and beyond to ensure the perfect wedding. We had a few family emergencies the same year as my wedding and I don't know what I would've done if Tamieka and her team weren't there to support my family...they did so many extras to ensure a perfect day. I highly highly recommend them for weddings are any other events, you can rest easy knowing that A Perfect Setting is taking care of anything and everything.

    A Perfect Setting Wedding & Events, Inc. is the ultimate planner. The service was professional, intimate, fun and accommodating to your every wish. Suggestions were offered and taken as we hadn't realized the small details that go into planning such an event. The Event planner was very, very accommodating, picked up the necessary items that were ordered and needed. On the day of the wedding when I walked into the restaurant, I was almost in tears. Everything was done so beautifully and the entire restaurant looked like a picture out of a magazine.The wedding/reception went off without a hitch and the Event planner was always there to make certain of this. The DJ that was recommended was spectacular. And if I ever get married (mother of the bride) I would without a doubt use A Perfect Setting & Events, Inc.

    There are just not enough words for what this event planner did. and In her words she said to me: "Ms Dozier, I don't want you to worry about anything and just have a good time at your daughters' wedding."

    FYI: After the wedding was over, for the splendid job that was done, I gave an additional tip to A Perfect Setting.

    Upon arriving home after the wedding, there were 12 messages on my answering machine all of which congratulated me on the wedding; the atmosphere, music and just how wonderful things had gone.

    Tamieka Jones and her wonderful staff at A Perfect Setting were super awesome. They were great in setting up the decor perfectly in the little amount time they had for set up. I can honestly say I was not stressed at all throughout the entire wedding planning and that was all due to Tamieka being super wonderful. She handled the invitations, wedding reception decor, wedding favors, flowers including bouquets and boutineers and she found the cake vendor as well. She sits down with you, gathers your ideas and makes your dream wedding come true. Not one ounce of worry went through my body because I totally trusted Tamieka. I was in a wedding years ago that she planned and I've seen her work. Fabulous is all I can say. THANK YOU! Would highly recommend.

    We chose APSWE for full service event planning for our wedding. The service was amazing. Tamieka was with us from beginning to end. She styled and designed everything for our wedding. We had weekly conference calls to discuss updates and met many times per month to attend vendor meetings. Tamieka was always available and willing to help and give her recommendations. She always had a smile on her face. Every vendor appointment we attended, the vendors would say we know you are in great hands working with Tamieka. As you can see she is well known for her excellent work.

    Tamieka was a pleasure to work with. She turned our dream into reality. Every idea she presented was well thought out and amazing such as color selections, linens, flowers, decor, dress, tux selection, etc. Tamieka was by our side the entire process and she made us feel at ease. Our bridal party and guests are tell raving about Tamieka and her team's professionalism and talent. If you are looking to have an amazing and memorable event please book APSWE. We already miss Tamieka.


    Thanks,
    Jason and Jonisha Lewis

    This was our third event with A Perfect Settings and Events. A perfect Setting did an excellent job planning, designing, and decorating our son first birthday party. It was a beautiful event. The theme and the decor was outstanding. Tamieka's professionalism and flexibility was above and beyond. We will highly recommend A perfect Setting for any of your future events.

    When I said yes, to to my forever love over the labor day weekend in 2006, I knew I needed expert assistance to have the wedding of my dreams less than a year later.

    A Perfect Setting answered my S.O.S. by providing detailed planning and execution with such precision, that I wanted to pay more!

    My May 5, 2007 wedding had over 200 guests, a bridal party of over 20, a landmark church, a Chelsea loft, and a grammy winning artist, who all needed to be handled in the most professional yet personal manner that ensured that my day to be truly "perfect."

    As the owner of a PR firm, my expectations were high, to say the least. A Perfect Setting not only met my requirements, but exceeded them.

    My advice for future brides is to pour your heart out to A Perfect Setting, and watch your fairytale wedding come true.

    Getting a wedding planner for the day was a great decision and I am grateful for all the help and support our planner, Tamieka, provided. She is friendly, professional, organized, and even helped me to get last minute transportation and flowers-at a discount! I was able to enjoy my wedding and reception knowing that she was in control and looking out for everything. Whenever a problem occurred Tamieka was there to efficiently eliminate it. When we left the reception, the car was packed and ready waiting for us and she stayed behind to assist our guests departure. I highly recommend Tamieka and would work with her again for any special event in the future.

    My mom and I attended a wedding planned by A Perfect Setting. And we closely observed Tamieka and her team throughout the wedding day. We were amazed at how things ran so smoothly and ahead of schedule. It was then I told my mom I think I needed a wedding day coordinator. When the time was right I reached out to A Perfect Setting and enlisted the services for décor design and wedding day coordination. It was the best investment for my wedding. Tamieka executed my vision beyond my expectations. She added unique and personal touches that were so me and my husband. The day of the wedding Tamieka was our rock and handled snafus behind the scenes which was a huge relief for us. We truly were able to enjoy our wedding day as if we were guests. Everyone should budget for a wedding day coordinator. You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you don't. You simply can't be the bride and the coordinator of the day simultaneously. We definitely plan to refer Tamieka and A Perfect Setting every chance we get.

    A Perfect Setting provided just that for my mom's 75th bday party... a Perfect Setting. I could not have asked for a better celebration. Ms. Jones and her staff exuded professionalism. Initially we had a meeting where she cleverly extracted information regarding my mother without the feeling of being intrusive. She "got" my mom, she understood her likes and got a firm grip on my mother's "essence". This information was elegantly recreated at her celebration. We had several meeting where information and ideas were exchanged in which Ms. Jones was open to receiving. She was able to accommodate my budget without feeling as if quality was compromised. Her staff was quick and efficient yet personable. It has been a month since the celebration and my mother still is "ooo-ing" and "ahhhh-ing". I would not hesitate in booking Ms. Jones. I do not regret it.

    A Perfect Setting Wedding and Events, Inc is the reason why our wedding day was a dream come true from the very first moment to the very last good-night. APSWE exceeded our expectations and clearly went above and beyond what we had hoped for. They were 100% responsible for our amazing wedding day. They provided us with top notch services from planning, collaborating, providing their expertise, feedback, and true professionalism.
    Our planner, Tamieka L. Jones, took the time to get to know my husband and I which allowed her the ability to create and implement our vision for our perfect wedding day. She listened to the details that we wanted to create for our “out of the box” wedding, and in return she was able to create exactly the experience we wanted our guests to have and to surround our union. Getting to know us really well gave her the ability to understand our vision and support decision making during the planning process and on the day of the event. She was able to recommend high quality vendors that met the requirements of our budget. In addition, she provided budget analysis and management. What I appreciated the most was Tamieka’s consistent and constant availability to us as we planned our wedding day. She became my best friend, my sister, and at times my mother during a time when I needed the support, advice, and feedback from a trusted person. Like a good friend or family member, she was always there for me throughout the planning process. I will always remember the trip with her into the city to purchase the supplies for the beautiful centerpieces she designed, her attendance during the signing of contracts with vendors, and the flawless timeline she created.
    We received so many compliments from family and friends regarding the fine details they saw at our wedding which made it stand out from other weddings they had experienced. Tamieka guided us from the color scheme choice of our wedding, turquoise and platinum, to the fine details that were consistent from our invitations, programs, hotel bags, escort cards, linens, table numbers and sparkling cake topper and cutting set. She gave us amazing décor that fit our budget. My husband and I are traditional, yet contemporary. Tamieka was able to create a “Modern Classic” wedding that was a complete reflection of our style, personalities, and values. Guests were amazed at the attention to the fine details.
    Tamieka showed true leadership during our wedding rehearsal, in the implementation of the wedding day timeline, and the direction of the ceremony. This allowed us to relax and enjoy our day. We did not feel like we had to manage our vendors the night of the wedding. Rather, due to Tamieka and her assistant, we felt like guests of honor at our own party, with no worries. They shielded us from any mishap that may have occurred and took care of everything to ensure that we just had fun!
    I would highly recommend APSWE to any bride who is trying her best to plan her dream wedding day. APSWE enabled us to create every detail of our vision, enjoy our day, and have a truly haute couture wedding. We owe the beauty of our day and ease of our experience to APSWE. We have become such good friends with Tamieka and still consult with her for after wedding advice on thank you cards, albums, and dress preservation. We consider her to be part of the family. We can not thank APSWE and Tamieka enough!

    Tamieka and her team went above and beyond to make our Wedding day special. Their eye for detail was extraordinary. Leading up to the wedding, Tamieka spent countless hours preparing for our wedding by weekly phone conversations. She followed up with each vendor which made our lives significantly easier and gave us the ability to enjoy the wedding planning process minus the tension. From the minute we woke up on our wedding day until our reception, we were not stressed out as Tamieka and her team had everything in order and most of all made our special day memorable. They worried about the details so we could truly enjoy our day.

    We highly recommend "A Perfect Setting, Inc" . They will be a blessing and excellent addition to your day. You will not be disappointed!

    From the moment we met with our planner, Tamieka L. Jones, we knew we made the right decision hiring her for full planning services. She constantly went the extra mile throughout the entire planning process whether it entailed looking for invitations, attending vendor meetings, finding the perfect reception hall for the BEST price, or just being there to listen to our concerns any time of day or night. When I ran into an issue with my bridal gown and headpiece at the bridal shop, I just wanted to cry. The headpiece I ordered 10 months before my wedding was suddenly discontinued and the shop forgot to bustle my gown. With all the bustle orders they had in queue, they wouldn’t get to my gown in time for the wedding. I must say getting this news so close to the wedding date was devastating. Of course, the headpiece I found to replace the one I loved was more money. When I told my husband (then fiancé) what was going on he immediately said “Call Tamieka!” With a calm voice, Tamieka reassured me everything would be okay and she would take care of it. I can’t tell you how happy I was to know I had a planner to come to the rescue. I watched her in awe as she diplomatically spoke with the bridal shop manager. Tamieka was able to get me the headpiece I wanted at no additional cost and a free bustle in time for the wedding.



    The day of the wedding, we didn’t lift a finger. Tamieka made sure our vendors were on time and everything was in place as we discussed. Our guests had a wonderful time and had nothing but great things to say. We give all the credit to A Perfect Setting - Tamieka listened intently to our vision and made it happen. For anyone who wants an “affair to remember” and not be stressed over it, we highly recommend A Perfect Setting Wedding and Events, Inc. as their starting ground.

    Hiring Tamieka was by far, one of the best decisions that I made when planning my wedding!!

    A lot of brides assume that they can "do it all" with the help of family members and DIY websites; I was certainly one of those brides, until I realized that I could not pull everything off alone; I realized that I needed the assistance of a PROFESSIONAL to ensure that all of my hard work paid off on my special day (i'm a picky pefectionistl) . During my preliminary/consultation meeting with Tamieka, I was sold! She was very honest, patient, and thorough; she got my vision and she got me as a bride! Within a day, I hired her to coordinate my wedding day!

    Indeed, Tamieka exceeded my (and my husband's) expectations with her professionalism, compassion, responsiveness, attention to detail, awesome advice, organizational skills, and great sense of humor (trust me, it helps when you're planning a wedding and feeling overwhelmed with details).

    If you are still trying to decide who to hire, don't look any further. Tamieka is the best and everyone in the industry (including my very particular minister/mentor) enjoys working with her.

    It was a pleasure working with Tamieka & A Perfect Setting. She was able to put my mind at ease with all of the details that planning a surprise wedding entails. Every single vendor that Tamieka suggested was professional, friendly, & made me feel like they really cared about making my wedding perfect.
    On the day of my wedding, everything went perfectly. Tamieka & her staff handled any hiccups & kept us on schedule. It was a tremendous relief not to be worried or stressed the day of with any issues. Her staff was excellent & made my family feel extra special.
    I would use A Perfect Setting again for another major event & I would recommend their services. It was money well spent!

    Ms.T Jones and her staff were EXCELLENT !!! All of her services that she provided were also excellent and very on point. Ms. Jones always made sure everything was confirmed and even contacted all of our vendors and was there for appt meetings with us to make sure all points of interest were clear and forthcoming. We personally will recommend Ms.Jones and her Staff to all of our family and friends- better yet, keep in contact with her for all of our future planning events. We wish very much to see Ms.Jones and her business excel to higher and greater places. Ms.Jones' price for her services was well worth the money. She truly helped make our day special.** Did I mention, Ms.Jones will make your event have great WOW!!! effects.

    Planning a destination wedding can be quite the daunting task. There are so many opportunities to make poor choices (when you�re not there in person) - any combination of which could spell disaster for one of the most important days in a couple�s life.

    Words cannot begin to express the gratitude we have for the work Tamieka Jones of A Perfect Setting, Inc. did to not only to make our wedding an absolutely flawless event, but in many ways to exceed our expectations. Because of her patience and attention to detail our wedding day in White Plains, NY was one of most stress-free and memorable days we�ve shared.

    From our very first phone conversation with Tamieka to just days before the wedding, she continually provided us with what we needed to make the most informed choices possible. And her sensitivity to our specific wants and needs helped to assure us some 3,000 miles away that we would be having nothing less than the wedding we had both dreamed of.

    On the day of the wedding, Tamieka literally broke a sweat to ensure that everything went off without a hitch and that all who attended had an absolutely fabulous time. The time and attention she provided along the way (from the extensive field research to find the �perfect setting� to negotiating with the vendors) communicates to us the level of commitment in which she operates. The integrity of her work is unmatched.

    Any couple would be truly blessed to have Tamieka as their wedding consultant.

    A Perfect Setting Wedding and Events, Inc. made my wedding an experience that shall not soon be forgotten! Tamieka worked closely with us to ensure that our day was absolutely perfect. My husband and I were impressed by Tamieka and her ability to own and operate such a wonderful business, except you would never know that she was running a business because she always treated us like family. Tamieka is extremely organized, knowledgeable, well known in the industry and above all else has an easy going personality. Tamieka made sure that our event was exactly as we had always envisioned. Thank you Tamieka and Deborah, you two are wonderful, and it is because of your help that our day was flawless. We appreciate the time, and attention to detail that you paid to us and our guests, and without you we would have never been able to make our day as perfect and easy going as you did. Again, thank you so much for everything that you have done to make our wedding day truly A Perfect Setting!
