An organized QUEEN

Theresa really helped me set my priorities for this wedding. We reviewed the things that mattered most, where I was and was not willing to compromise, and helped me get creative with how we'd bring my very specific vision to life. I wanted whimsical, romantic, gothic vibes -- and it may have seemed daunting to someone else but Theresa understood and definitely EXECUTED. I am big on ideas and creativity, but very disorganized, Theresa was on top of making sure all my vendors were organized, my day of plan was ready to go, and that no detail was missed in the lead up or day of, so I could focus on enjoying my wedding with my husband, friends and family. I genuinely enjoyed working with Theresa and her team and couldn't imagine my day going as perfect as it did without her.

Above and Beyond!

Above All Events went above it all for our wedding! We had picked out the venue and had about 9 months to plan the perfect wedding and Teresa and her team brought the vision to life and beyond! She was so easy to work with and listened to all the details I hoped to include in our wedding.

Above All, a wedding planner and a new friend 🤍

Teresa from day one was organized, inspired, and most of all KIND. Above all events truly takes what your image is, your dream is, and works endlessly to make this dream become a reality. She is the perfect pairing to help make your event a genuinely perfect, magical and happy experience. I would recommend her 1,000 times over. Mostly, I had made a friend and a confidant to help me not only create but celebrate that special day with.

Unforgettable and Invaluable

Teresa, owner and motivating force behind Above All Events, was invaluable to the exquisite and unforgettable wedding of my daughter Jaclyn. Teresa turned our dreams into reality and produced the most elegant and magical wedding. All the top vendors in NYC, Brooklyn, and Long Island. She was able to secure the best of the best. Her staff, especially Priscilla, were amazing too.
Our wedding guests still talk about how no details were missed and how incredible they were. We highly recommend Teresa and her team. As the mother of the bride, I was able to enjoy every day leading up to the wedding and the wedding itself with no stress and no worries because of her exceptional expertise and experience. Thank you Teresa.

Saved The Day

Teresa went above and beyond in every aspect. From curling my bridesmaids hair, sewing people into dresses, coordinating with every vendor, calming me down before walking down the aisle - no task was too small. Truly could not have had the wedding we did without her help. The timeline she provided was outstanding and the attention to detail amazing. We were able to enjoy our day and not worry about the hiccups behind the scenes. 10/10 recommend!

Oheka Castle Wedding

Teresa was extremely helpful in ensuring all the details of our dream wedding came to life. This is the second wedding in our family that she has been a part of and we will most certainly be using her again. Having her in your corner allows for you and your guests to enjoy the day without any headaches.

Amazing party planner, organized and attentive

Teresa was the MVP of our wedding!! We did our wedding at Hempstead House at Sandspoint Preserve. She came highly recommended from the venue and we booked her as a day of planner. Prior to the wedding, she meticulously helped us with the schedule and coordination of all our vendors. There is no way we could have done this without her. Every single detail was flawless and she took all the pieces we had been working on for a year and put them together to form the perfect puzzle. On the day of, she was on top of every single detail and took incredible care of us. She made sure everything ran according to schedule. I would recommend her to anyone looking to have a wedding. I didn’t realize all the different nuances until the day of and this wouldn’t have been possible without her.

Teresa made my evening a dream come true! I recommend her to all of our friends and colleagues. She was able to put together an engagement dinner in less than 3 weeks and it was perfect! Can’t wait to find another event to host just to have her by our side

amazing experience at the Hempstead House

Teresa was extremely helpful. Due to Covid pandemic we had to change the venue/ caterers/ flower design and many other little things a month before the wedding and would never be able to do it without Teresa's help. All difficulties were handled with ease, professionalism, punctuality and great attitude! From start to finish Teresa was always there to help and made sure the event was better than we ever could’ve expected! So many people who attended the wedding said it was the best wedding they had ever been to! Teresa managed to keep us all calm and relaxed, so we could truly enjoy the day!
Above All Events is the company you should go with!

From vendor confirmations and suggestions to providing any last minute needs, Alyson was there to help us every step of the way. Would HIGHLY recommend!

Mother of Bride

My daughter’s wedding at CitiField could never have been pulled off without this outstanding, extremely talented team. (See photos on website) Their creativity, coupled with their exuberance made us feel as if they were planning their own personal event. From day one of planning, until the final moment of the evening, they never stopped working. Do not even consider using anyone else.

Above All Events goes Above and Beyond

I hired Alyson and Above All Events, based on a recommendation from my soon to be cousin (at the time). In other words, she basically told me I would be an idiot not to hire Alyson and she was right!
I knew I needed someone, specifically, to help keep me sane. Above All events was WORTH. EVERY. PENNY.
My first phone call with Alyson, before I booked, was extremely thorough. At this point I didn’t have a venue or date. Yet, she still took the time to go over all my visions and my preliminary budget – what would work and what wouldn’t. Alyson will never fluff anything – you will always get REAL, true, honest advice.
Before the “month-of” started, Alyson had been there to answer EVERY little ridiculous question... and I mean ridiculous! Throughout the process, Alyson played many roles. She was my planner, my friend, my therapist, and the one who told me I was crazy and to take it down a notch when needed. – Being one of the most indecisive people on the planet Alyson pretty much made all my decisions – Big or little.
When it came time do our initial meet, she agreed to do it at my venue and trek out to NYC in the middle of rush hour. She came fully loaded with every question, idea, concern, vision that I was too excited to remember about. She remained in contact with every one of my vendors and took 5 million phone calls with my photographer to figure out the best first look location for us.
Alyson goes above and beyond! She always had my best interest at heart, trying to give me tips and tricks to save me money wherever I could. When she didn’t hear from me for a few days she would check in to make sure everything was going smoothly, and more importantly, I was still breathing. To name a few – Day of, she juggled my driver getting stuck in traffic, guests in the lobby as I was walking down for my first look, my groomsman losing a tie, ripping my veil, and bustling my 27 points. To say she was a life-saver would be an understatement.
If you’re questioning hiring Above All Events, DO IT! I promise, you won’t regret it!

Amazing, exceptional, detailed

just wanted to send you a special note and thank you for all your hard work to make Ashleigh’s vision and dream come to life… you did an amazing job until the very last minute of the wedding day. I received so many calls and texts from guests who said they have never been to a wedding like that before, just the sheer beauty of the room was stunning, the flowers, Ashleigh and Dennis’s table, the wall, the dance floor, tables 1 & 2, I can go on and on but most importantly ALL the tiny little details were just incredible. You were amazing!!! I just want to shout out a few things that stood out ; I thought Allison was amazing, she hustled all night and worked her butt off she had everyone doing and being where they had to be and anything we asked her for she was on it like lightning. One of the girls said to tell you their shuttle driver to the Gardens was exceptional, he was very attentive and nice, The guys who put the flowers together to make the room come alive, kudos to them. And then there was you, from the moment you walked in the bridal suite you were on it!!! You once again had every detail covered, and I saw you all night at the reception working your butt off making sure everything went just as we all visioned. It was a wedding no one will ever forget…So in ending THANK YOU THANK YOU THANKYOU!!!!

Absolutely amazing experience!

Where do I begin? Alyson was hands down, the most amazing person I've ever worked with. We had less than 9 months to plan our wedding and she just went above and beyond with every detail, no matter how small, to make sure we were taken care of. For those of you who have never planned a wedding before, the stress can seem outrageously overwhelming at times, but having someone like Alyson help ease those stresses makes a world of a difference. I honestly don't think I would have survived this entire process without her. She's an expert at her craft, is attentive to your wants and needs and knows the industry so well that you can rest assured she always has your best interests at heart.

Alyson, and Above All Events in general, are the definition of perfection. The work ethic and attention to detail is second to none and you can feel the passion behind everything they do; their main goal really is to make your dream and vision come to life.

I couldn't be more grateful or thankful for all Alyson has done. She played such an intricate part in making our day so special and it wouldn't have been the same without her. We've had so many of our guests reach out to us to comment on how flawless and amazing the entire day was. They simply can't get over it. I will be recommending Alyson and Above All Events to anyone and everyone in my life and will most definitely be using her/them as much as possible in the future!

Beyond the best experience of my life

I honestly don't even know where to start. It actually brings tears to my eyes as I get ready to write this (and I'm the groom). It could not have been a more perfect day and it’s all because of Alyson. Danielle and I greatly appreciated her expertise and professionalism. There is no way we could of done this without Alyson, and we are so grateful that she played such an intricate part in the best day of our lives. The way she alleviated all the stress that most people speak about as the process goes along, and the days before our wedding day approached, was incredible.

Alyson spent countless hours with Danielle and I. She walked us through every step of the process so we knew what to expect. Our venue was in NJ and, Aly took numerous car rides with us to all meetings with the Venue. She sat in hours of traffic with us to make sure everything was perfect. That's what you get when you work with Alyson and AboveAllEvents. Nothing short of perfect. Aly also introduced us to all of our vendors. Her connections she has made in the industry made decisions for Danielle and I to make extremely easy. She came to every appointment with us. She went over in length all the details. She was always accessible and available for us. We basically gave Aly our vision and she brought it to life. When I walked into the venue after we had finished our pictures and first look, I almost fell to my knees. The room was breathtaking. It was beyond anything I thought it would look like. It was so perfect and so intimate. The attention to detail was unbelievable. The Ceremony, the reception, and everything in between from pictures to the band far exceeded anything Danielle and I imagined.

As the days have passed since our wedding day, and we are sad it’s over, the memories we have from that night will be with us forever. We have those memories because of Alyson. All of our guests have reached out to us since and were in awe of everything. I will recommend Alyson and AboveAllEvents to all friends, family, and co-workers. Alyson is everything you need and more.

The most incredible wedding planners ever - hire them right NOW.

Alyson was the most incredible planner, and we would recommend her, and Teresa, to absolutely everyone. Not only was she a pleasure to work with (so sweet and easy going), but her expertise and attention to detail were impeccable. She guided us through every step of the wedding planning process, and especially with bringing in a tent to a venue with lighting and deco, it wasn’t an easy task. Alyson managed all of the vendors with ease. We were the most relaxed on the day of the wedding knowing everything was taken care of. She truly cared about our families and every aspect of the wedding, and that is very hard to find in this industry. Teresa was also incredible. She came on the day of to help with everything and was beyond calming and detail oriented. They both treated our wedding like it was their own, and we can’t thank them enough for that. If you’re looking for a team that will be by your side from the start and really see your wedding through to the end, and CARE about it, then definitely go with Above All Events. No task was ever too small for them, and they really coordinated everything as big as the venue all the way down to hair and makeup. Everyone kept saying that our wedding was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and we really attribute a lot of that to them. We have already recommended Above All Events to two of our friends that just got engaged and we will continue to recommend them to everyone because they were just that amazing. We are over the moon!!!

I don't even know where to begin with writing a review for Alyson and the Above All Events team. Alyson gave me the wedding I've always dreamed of since I was a little girl. She made the process fun, rather than stressful - and her knowledge of wedding planning was a godsend. Alyson helped keep me on track, never questioned my vision, and instead thought of creative ways to bring my vision to life times 1000. Looking back, I don't know if I could have done it without her. From everything from invitations, to standing with us before we were called out for the reception - she was there to help EVERY step of the way. She really listened to our ideas, and brought them to life for us, with little to no work on our end. I'll be forever grateful for the amount of behind the scenes work Alyson and her team put in. She was always one step ahead and anticipated all of our needs. I could not have done it without her. Alyson and her team work miracles! I don't even consider her a vendor, but more like a friend - for the love and support she gave throughout the entire process. I could not recommend Above All Events enough to anyone looking for a planner!!

Teresa understands her clients & their ideas of what they envision but steps it up and knocks it out of the park with her creativity. Everything a class act. Best decision we made of the entire wedding process. Above All events took care of everything which allowed us to actually enjoy the wedding. Because of Teresa and crew, it was the most amazing and enjoyable wedding. Our guests are still sending us notes about how beautiful and elegant. They were always available, stayed within budget,but still was able to deliver a home run. Our daughter's wedding was suppose to be outdoors and the weather did not cooperate, Above All Events staff pulled together a breath taking ceremony indoors all within a few hours. All they said was trust us and we did!!!! You should trust them for they WILL NOT disappoint. Thank you for making Lauren and Bryan's dream wedding become not a dream but the most incredible, wonderful, fun, and by far most wonderful wedding I have ever attended.

My fiancee (now wife) found Alyson on the Knot. After a phone call, we hired her to help us find a venue. Alyson identified a bunch of venues at different price points and each with their own unique style. She was patient and informative as we took our time to decide on just the right one, after which she provided valuable guidance in negotiating the contracts. We were pleased with her work so we then decided to upgrade to full service planning. The vendors she connected us with were excellent, especially the florist, photographer, DJ and baker. On our wedding day, Alyson and her partner Teresa kept the whole show running smoothly while my bride and I enjoyed the day without worrying for a second about the logistics. I can’t imagine having done it without them!

The greatest decision we ever made was working with Alyson of Above All Events! In the words of a previous review: Alyson absolutely shines in all the areas of wedding planning and is simply an all around amazing person. Her talent in orchestrating every single detail, her creativity, exquisite taste, unflappable flexibility, her graceful, tactful way of dealing with all vendors, family, bridal party and, yes, me, the detail driven, perfectionist bride! I cannot recommend Alyson highly enough. NO ONE else could’ve been greater to work with! From our first phone call, Alyson was invested in our wedding. Other wedding planners I spoke with made me feel like a bride, Alyson made me feel like the ONLY bride.

Through the incredibly detailed planning, Alyson made sure our day was perfect. Any tiny mishaps that aren’t anticipated (they DO happen!) disappear with her magic wand. For example, I had danced so much that my long flowing hair needed to be pulled back! I was about to take make a pony tail - Alyson sat me down, pulled out some bobby pins, and in minutes my hair was in a fabulous updo. So many of my guests commented on my hair and thought a stylist “transformed” me into my new look - sounds so glamorous, but if they only knew! Truth is, I really couldn’t have felt more beautiful! It’s the millions of little details, similar to these, that even the most detail oriented brides don’t anticipate - this is where Alyson comes in and makes even a perfectionist say “WOW”!

I could go on and on and give endless examples of what Alyson did to make our day special - and am happy to give my personal recommendation via email or phone to any bride to be!

I’m so extremely grateful and have such an incredibly full heart - our day would have NOT been the same without Alyson! She brought our wedding to another level - wedding of the century - simply put, ABOVE ALL EVENTS!

With love and endless appreciation,
Kristen and Austin

Alyson and Teresa gave us a day we will never forget and always look fondly on! They took care of all the concerns on wedding day, and allowed us to just enjoy the moment. Leading up to the wedding, Alyson (who we worked primarily with) ensured that all of the details and particulars were arranged, and always had our best interest in mind. She was a pleasure to work with and gave us peace of mind as we planned our once in a lifetime event. We are truly thankful and blessed to have chosen and worked with Alyson and Teresa, and would absolutely reccomend them to anyone looking for someone to make there special day perfect! Thank you so much again!

Look no further! We are so thrilled that we chose Alyson of Above All Events! She absolutely shines in all the areas that matter to us: her talent in orchestrating every single detail, her creativity, her exquisite taste, unflappable flexibility, her graceful, tactful way of dealing with all vendors, family, bridal party and, yes, me, the demanding- nervous- excited- emotional mother of the bride! I can not recommend Alyson highly enough. We worked with her partner Teresa also on the day of the wedding as one covered the venue and the other the church and off site photos. They coordinated everything seamlessly, flawlessly and our daughter's day was spectacular!

“I am giving you a 10++ for Justin & Gabby Stevens’ wedding. Everything was PERFECT. Every detail was taken care of. I couldn’t believe how beautiful you made Maguires. It was MAGICAL. And the beach ceremony was over the top. I have never been to a beach wedding but it will be really hard to top the one you orchestrated for Justin & Gabby. Don’t think I have ever had more fun at a wedding than I did at theirs. As mother of the groom I was ready and willing to offer any assistance but they didn’t need any input. You were the go to source for everything. Believe it or not, everyone wanted to know where to get the cake topper…it was a real hit!!!! Friends and Family were raving for days! And pictures galore flooded Facebook. Thank you so much for making their ceremony as special as they are!” P.S. I LOVED THE DONUTS (favors) TOO! Carol Bloom Stevens

It is truly hard to put into words how Alyson and Teresa made my wedding exactly how I dreamed it would be. The planning was on point for every aspect and put us in touch with all the right people. It would be hard not to have them as part of your wedding! Both Alyson and Teresa are the kind of woman you want around you not only for your wedding day but in life!

My daughter and I enjoyed planning her wedding and didn't need a wedding planner from day one. However, a few months prior we realized having a "month of" wedding planner would allow all of us to enjoy her special day and so we interviewed 3 different companies. We got more than "month of" from Above All Events. They are the most professional, caring and reliable experts in wedding planning. Everything flowed with ease and stress levels were low. Thank you Alyson for everything.

Hiring Above All Events was the best thing we ever did for our wedding! Alyson Joubert was my fairy godmother, guardian angel, and BFF all rolled into one. Our wedding was absolute perfection and it was all because of her amazing hard work, dedication, and attention to detail. I'm a corporate event manager for a living which I know made me a challenging bride in many ways but she was a dream to work with throughout the entire process. Being on the west coast, I knew I needed eyes and ears on the ground in NY which would make me very reliant on my planner. Since I'm also a control freak, this wasn't easy, but from my first call with Alyson, I knew she understood us as a couple and what our vision was for the wedding. She always kept us on task, kept to our budget, and was always immediately responsive when I had ideas/questions/concerns. The day of our wedding, she made sure everything was PERFECT. From start to finish, it was a flawless experience for both us and our guests. I can't say enough good things about her or recommend her enough!

Every bride begins the wedding planning journey with a different vision - and Teresa Mondelli Romanelli of above all events will make that vision a reality!!
How can we express our gratitude for making Gabby Dalrymple and Justin Stevens day perfect!! All the planning and behind the scenes work made the day flawless!! Fire Island is most definitely a challenge and Teresa took care of every detail- from getting 220 chairs onto the beach to making sure the muppets made it to the wedding- and every detail in between!! Working closely with all the vendors made everything go so smooth!!
If you are looking for guidance in planning a wedding choose a wedding planner - be assured that choosing above all events will not disappoint -
Thank you Teresa for making things "just happen" - the day was perfect and we have you to thank for that!!

I could not have felt more confident that she was making our dream of a beach wedding into the most beautiful reality. Everyone commented on how calm I was the day of, that's because Teresa was taking care of everything. Thanks again to you and your team, amazing amazing amazing time was had by all!

We are so thankful to have found Allyson and Theresa at above all events. When I first spoke with Allyson, I knew immediately that they were the ones to help me with my wedding planning. They were always available, communicated frequently with me and my vendors and took the time to understand exactly what i wanted and needed. They took over everything for me and I knew that I didn't have to worry about a thing. When it came to the wedding day, I really do not know what I would have done without them. We didn't get married at a typical wedding venue so they really needed to step up and take control of everything, and they did! Everything that I envisioned happened seamlessly. Any challenges that were encountered were handled with professionalism and grace, and went unnoticed by me and my guests! I couldn't have had my PERFECT wedding without Alyson and Theresa! Thank you so much for everything! Patricia

My daughter, Kimberly, was recently married at Oheka Castle. When we first went to visit the venue, we very fortunately met Teresa Romanelli and Alyson Joubert, the owners of "Above All Events", who were there setting up the ballroom for another event. As our daughter lives in Philadelphia and the wedding was on Long Island, we decided to use Above All Events to help coordinate all the wedding details. Teresa was our primary coordinator although we also had Alyson with us at various times throughout the process, including on Kim's wedding day.
Teresa helped make the entire wedding process seamless from start to finish. She was very accessible and got back to us quickly when we had a question. She even came to one of the appointments with the seamstress for my daughter's wedding dress when we were having some difficulty with the store.
Teresa was also a wonderful resource for choosing the wedding vendors. The process would have taken much longer as we had no idea where to begin. Each vendor was wonderful and helped make the event "over the top". She also sat with my daughter, her fiancé and my husband and I during our appointments with the vendors. She thought of details that would have never occurred to us that helped make the wedding wonderful!
We have received so many compliments on Kim and Brandon's wedding. We heartily recommend Above All Events to anyone planning an event. We can't thank them enough for a beautiful day!
Love, Bob and Candee

A Father's Point of View:
Although I was not directly involved in most (or any) decisions that were made in the year long planning of my daughter's wedding I can unequivocally say that hiring Teresa of Above All Events was the best decision ever made. Teresa's knowledge, caring, and professionalism were the key to us having a most awesome wedding celebration. Everything that Teresa helped with or handled during the planning stages were super important and needed to be done properly and efficiently, that she accomplished without blinking an eye. However what she and Alyson did on the wedding day was second to none in making every single detail flow perfectly. Their total understanding of what happens, where to be, when to go was an amazing thing to watch. Their rapport with the vendors not only initially save us money but enabled us to enjoy the wedding and not worry that something wasn't right. Our family thanks them from the bottom of our hearts for truly caring and making a special day just perfect!

Above All Events helped me design exactly the wedding I was looking for! They had so many connections to great vendors, they helped narrow down everything I needed to choose. Even when it came to seating, Teresa made everything work out perfectly. She took such pride in her work and it showed. Our wedding was flawless and beautiful with the help of Above All Events!

I would tell them if they want someone who reply's back to you ASAP, if they want someone who gives good advice but listens to what you want 100 percent then they should BOOK Above All Events. Teresa Romanelli was on her A game the whole time I worked with her. She created my save the dates, wedding invites, rehearsal dinner invites and my donation cards and they were all amazing and exactly what I wanted. I pictured what I wanted and explained it to Teresa and she created everything exactly the way I wanted it and dreamed of!!!! I am so grateful that I was introduced to her.

Teresa and Alyson are seriously amazing! I would recommend them time and time again. We had the best engagement party EVER! I mean EVER. Every single guest contacted me the next day saying how amazing our party was. Even called it "flawless". We have been asked many times how we are going to top this party at our wedding! We really had them most amazing experience and both Alyson and Teresa work their tails off from the moment you book with them until the breakdown of the party is fully completed. Could not have had a better experience! Every little detail tied the whole party together and put a special touch on the party. Teresa came to our house the day of booking and we told her our ideas and her visions were endless and she really painted a picture in our heads of what the party would be like and fully executed it! This party will never be forgotten! Thank you so much ladies!!!!!! You seriously made it so special for us and we can thank you enough!!! We will be booking you again for future events!

First I just want to say WOW! Above All Events was amazing! When I decided to throw an engagement party for my son and his fiance, I really didn't want to do any of the work - so when I met Teresa I knew right away she was the one! She was sweet, adorable, knowledgeable, professional and very creative. Her ideas were beyond and we just keep saying yes to all of it. Her partner, Alyson, was also a gem. They arrived early and stayed to the very end and left my house the way the found it The decor was fantastic - it was a Fall theme and they left nothing out. They handled every little thing that came up - I didn't need to worry about anything - I didn't need to do anything - they did it all! The caterer was delicious, the staff was perfect - and the DJ, Jeremy, was out of this world. He had everyone dancing all night. Teresa and Alyson are so terrific that I'm hoping I have the need to throw another party just so they can run it. I highly, very highly, recommend them to handle any type of occasion - they are the best!

There is a reason they are called Above All Events. Alyson has gone above and beyond from the day I started working with her. She is a pleasure to work with, and extremely talented. She is responsiveness (even with my early morning and late night texts), a caring person, and very creative. She understood my vision for my wedding and was there every step of the way coming up with ideas and helping me make decisions. She is detail-oriented and always on top of her game. Not only did she make the planning process a breeze, but the day of my wedding was absolutely perfect with her there. Her partner, Teresa, was also there and is a professional. These 2 woman know what they're doing and I couldn't have done it without them. They have so many contacts with vendors in the industry and know the best people to go to. Alyson is patient and calm even with last minute changes the week before the wedding. She made me feel stress-free on my wedding day because I knew everything would go perfectly with her there. I loved working with Alyson and Teresa at Above All Events - they made my beautiful beach-themed wedding come true!

Alyson was so attentive, so detail oriented, so sweet and lovely to work with. Even my guests told me how amazing she was. Don't ever try to plan an off premises wedding without a talented wedding planner. Alyson was kind and compassionate during a difficult time for my family when we lost a family member in the middle of planning. She bent over backward to fill in all the gaps that I didn't have time for. She made the venue beautiful, and she provided an insanely good DJ named Jeremy. Use him if at all possible. She was so great that my 19 year old daughter tells me she will use her in 10 years :). She answered every call, every email and every text. I had a small venue up many stairs, and there were a ton of moving parts, on and off multilevel decks, trying to squeeze in guests, caterers etc. My wedding would have been chaos without her. With her, it was PERFECT. It was a beautiful day, I was perfectly relaxed and she took care of my every need. I cannot say enough good things about her. Love this woman!

Booking Above All Events was the best decision/money we spent on the wedding! Alyson was all over every detail and added so much value to our wedding. We could not have done it without her! A pleasure to work with, and made our wedding the best day ever. She also managed to negotiate some great savings on several of our vendors, which was awesome. Teresa was also a great additional support on the day; Alyson and Teresa were a dream team and made it so we could actually just enjoy the day ourselves knowing everything was taken care of.

Working with Teresa was absolutely amazing! The last few weeks of planning gets super stressful and Teresa did an incredible job collecting and organizing all of my planning and dreams to make it a reality! Teresa was always available if I had questions, concerns or problems and often fixed issues before I even knew there were any! On the day of the wedding, Teresa's smile, energy and organization was contagious and comforting. I would recommend Above All Events to any couple looking for day of coordination, my only regret was that we didn't have Teresa by our side throughout our whole wedding process!

Could not have gotten through my day without Alyson! She really kept me cool and calm by my side for everything leading up to the wedding. Alyson went above and beyond before, during and after the wedding. Even though I was working with Alyson, Teresa was also available to come to the wedding, and she made sure the venue ( and my cake ) looked perfect. They worked great together, and were amazing with me, my husband, the bridal party, and our family.

Can't recommend Above All Events enough!!

What can we say? Teresa and Alyson were absolutely wonderful in coordinating our epic James Bond themed wedding. We worked mostly with Alyson and she was amazing! Organized and detailed, she took the stress off both of our chests as preparing for a wedding is one of the most exciting and hectic experiences in many peoples lives. She made sure everything went accordingly and communication was top notch. We were always on the same page. The wedding went extremely smooth and many people wished it lasted longer! We highly recommend Above All Events for anyone needing less stress during their special day. Thanks again Alyson and Teresa for helping us make an already extraordinary wedding into an epic one!

Sincerely
-Robert and Jennifer Loo

Above All Events are by far the best planners! I sat down with many others and went with them. Both Alyson and Teresa are amazing!! They executed everything perfectly! My wedding day was everything I imagined with their help! They were always available to help with any question I had through the whole process. They were saviors the day of! My husband and I have already used this company for another event and we highly recommend them and look forward to using them again in the future!

We hired Teresa and Alyson for full wedding planning, 18 months ago and It was by far the BEST decision we made for our wedding. Teresa ending up helping out with my engagement party also. She was so amazing that I ended up also hiring her to plan my shower as well. From the day I hired Above All Events, my wedding planning became the easiest most fun process I have ever been through. Teresa was available what seemed like 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I tried to respect her personal time, however if something came up she responded asap and was on top of things before I even knew there was a problem. She is the most patient and hard working person ever! One of the most impressive things to me was, 3 weeks before my wedding my favor vendor suddenly quit. We were doing 150 mini wedding cakes, and 3 weeks before my wedding date I had no one to do these cakes anymore. I called Teresa, almost in tears, at 7pm on a wednesday, by 9am thursday morning she had 3 bakeries making me samples that I could choose from that week. I ended up choosing an amazing bakery Teresa found in NJ and I couldn't have been happier. The day of my actual wedding, we had a problem with our main wedding cake, Teresa literally stood there picking off the flowers that were not supposed to be there and immediately tried to get in contact with the other bakery who made the cake. The morning of my wedding Alyson was with me getting ready while Teresa over saw my venue setup. Alyson was unbelievably amazing all morning. At one point she literally was pinning me into my dress!! my wedding morning would not have been the same without Alyson there. I cannot say enough good things about Teresa, Alyson and Above All Events. Their fees are VERY fair and they pull together an amazing event. I had a very over the top wedding and I NEVER would've had the night I had if it wasn't for Teresa. Thank You!!!!!!! I look forward to years of planning other events with Above All Events!

Alyson and Teresa were phenomenal! They were a huge help along the way, but especially on the day of the wedding.

As most do, I interviewed quite a few other planners far before my June 27th, 2015 outdoor, backyard, small intimate wedding of 400. Right off the bat, I knew that Alyson and Teresa we're made for us! (Love at first sight, If you will) We loved their energy, creativeness and eagerness to take on such a giant task...AND they came toting a killer inspiration board of ideas based off our phone call (and sharing my Pinterest board) We knew this was the beginning of something beautiful. And we was more than right. From day one they were the best wedding decision I had made.
Alyson was my main contact and she was FABULOUS. She answered every phone call and ridiculous text message (ex: real candles or battery?..real duh) over the next year + of working together. She was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable and a really awesome therapist when I was feeling overwhelmed.My biggest mistake was not hiring Above All Events full-time. Still, Alyson worked with me to put together 3 different tablescapes, she went ABOVE and beyond and even came to a vendor I was having an issue with. Plus 700,000 miscellaneous little wedding fires she helped put out on the regular. We had as many review meetings as I needed right before the wedding to calm my nerves.
June 27th was absolutely magic. It was beautiful down to every little detail. When I walked into the backyard and saw everything we had been talking about for almost 2 years FINALLY put all together- it was simply gorg
I hear a lot that girls go through "wedding withdraw" after everything you’ve planned is over but I AM having major planner withdraws. I will miss working together.
If you have the opportunity to hire a planner, for design, day of, or full time, these are your gals. Every single cent is worth their expertise and support. THANK YOU ABOVE ALL EVENTS for all of your blood, sweat, and tears (well my tears) in making our stunning wedding an event for the records. WE <3 YOU. - Chrissy + Pete

Teresa was absolutely amazing. I am an interior designer and honestly did not think I needed any help planning my wedding or executing my ideas. As a matter if fact I was worried that if I hired someone they would take over and my creative vision would be lost. That could not be further from the truth. Let me explain

1- Yes, I needed help. Everyone does. While I may have had my own I ideas, I didn't know how to source the best people to execute them. I also knew nothing about pricing and what was fair what was inflated. Experience is important. No bride is experienced in wedding planning ( ok maybe some have planned one before, but that does not make you an expert). I wanted a perfect wedding and I got one, because Teresa is amazing. She is resourceful, smart, talented and extremely responsive. And she is nice. You can't work with someone you don't like. It's important. Also she had integrity. Not an easy find in the wedding business.

2- Why it will still be your wedding your way. Teresa never tried to take over. She helped me execute my vision and made it better. It was a collaboration. I had my ideas and she would either help pull them together, tell me why they wouldn't work and offer alternatives, or find a way to enhance them.

3- You will save money. That's right. She is in the know ladies. She gets better prices than you. Her savings pay for her services.

Do not hesitate. Above all events will not only make your day amazing but
also help get your through a difficult process and make it all manageable. There is not one thing I would change about the services I received. I have zero complaints or regrets. Get a wedding planner. You need one. Plus they have various packages. They can work with you. Best money I spent for my wedding.

Teresa Romanelli, Alyson Joubert and their staff at Above All Events could not have been more professional, more attentive or more caring. Every minor detail was covered. Their true value to our wedding, however, wasn't more evident than when something went wrong with a vendor (which I've learned always happens). When it does no one will correct the problem, keep the bride calm, and make it all work out for the better than Teresa, Alyson and Above All Events.

Planning a wedding takes patience, attention to detail and the wear with all to know that you need a team working with you so that you can enjoy the process. Enter Above All Events. We learned of Teresa and Alyson, co-owners of Above all Events, from our eldest daughter, Ashleigh Malangone, who is a bridal accessories designer. After my daughter, Makenzie, the Bride-to-be, and I had our initial meeting with Teresa, we knew we had found the right team to help us execute our vision. Teresa is high-energy, confident and has a "take charge" personality.

Makenzie and Kyle's wedding had many wonderful details, and the seamless execution of each and every detail was something that we felt would be a challenge. We had purchased our own table linens, chair covers, chargers, and close to 100 hurricane candle holders; not to mention, we were to host over 200 guests. The reason we were concerned with executing the details was because we were only granted access in to the venue two hours prior to the start of the reception. Yes, just two hours to execute what would comfortably take a team more than double that time to execute. What Above All Events pulled off that night was nothing short of a magical decor miracle. Teresa and Alyson remained calm and professional in the controlled chaos of the setup. It was everything to me as the Mother of the Bride most importantly, because Makenzie and Kyle knew nothing that was going on behind the closed doors of the reception hall.

When Teresa brought Makenzie and Kyle in to see the room illuminated with hundreds of candles prior to the entrance of the guests, they were overwhelmed. Everything down to each little votive was placed perfectly. There was nothing for them to do but enjoy every moment of that spectacular day!

What Above All Events executed for us was miraculous given their time constraints. Trust them with your wedding Brides. They will not let you down.

I hired Above All Events to help plan my bridal shower at Old Westbury Gardens. I wanted a vintage theme and wanted it to feel like a fairy tale and that is exactly what Teresa and her team did. Teresa started working with me last August in the very beginning stages of planning. From August, up until the night after my shower, Teresa was there for anything and everything, day or night. She set up all my vendors from catering to tent rentals, to photography, to furniture and chandelier rentals and everything in between. Every single vendor she suggested was just as great as the last. The day of my shower, Teresa and her team arrived at 8am and did the entire set up. From setting the tables with all of my mis matched china and mismatched centerpieces to every single display I wanted, it was taken care of without me ever having to worry. When our signature drink ran out, Teresa didn't miss a beat. Within 10 minutes she had all the ingredients we needed to keep the cocktail flowing. At several points throughout the day, Teresa was actually serving drinks to people in order to take some pressure off the wait staff. She worked like no ones business the entire day. In fact, 4 days later I am still getting comments from guests saying they have never seen anyone hustle and work as hard as Teresa did that day. After the shower was over, Teresa and her team cleaned up and boxed every single piece of china and decoration I had there….and believe me, it was A LOT :) I 10000000% recommend Teresa and Alison and Above All Events. I can't wait to continue planning my wedding with them!

I can't imagine my wedding being such a success without Teresa. She was like a fairy godmother. Every detail was taken care of. On the day of my wedding I awoke to rain showers. A nightmare for any bride! About an hour before the ceremony, everything had been moved inside and of course, I was beyond upset. My venue was chosen based on he beautiful topiary gardens and pond. Teresa knew how important it was for to myself and my groom to have the wedding outside, and as luck would have it the rain tapered off and she had the team move it all back outside. She believed that I could have the wedding I had dreamed of and made it happen. Minutes before I walked down the aisle, the sun peaked out from the clouds and it was a truly amazing moment. Had it not been for Teresa my wedding in the garden never would have happened! This is just one of the amazing moments at the wedding that made it so special. She was there through every step of the way and her hard work made the whole event seem flawless!

Teresa was amazing at everything she did and all that she helped me with. She has wonderful ideas and made my life soooo much easier. I did not have time to plan a wedding myself and so she effortlessly took on several tasks with ease. I would highly recommend above all events. Thanks again for everything !!!!

Amazing Investment!!! I don't know what we would've done without above all EVENTS! Above all was all hands on deck from the get go, providing spectacular vendor recommendations, coordinating vendor meetings & menu tastings, and offering the newest décor and design ideas. Alyson & Teresa were superb the day of, even providing a calming effect just knowing all was being taken care of. Any hiccups that did occur throughout the day went unnoticed to us and guests thanks to above all Events always being one step ahead. Alyson and Teresa were always available whenever I needed them before, during,and even after the wedding. They exuded professionalism with absolute grace and efficiency and truly made our special day frazzle free. Like I said, amazing investment!!!

We hired Above All Events for Partial Planning to help with our wedding on October 12, 2014. Alyson was my day of coordinator and she did an amazing job in not only making sure everything was perfect but also made sure we were doing ok. Throughout the planning process, she was super helpful in answering any questions I had, helping me find vendors, and even down to finding table runners! My day would not have gone the way it did if I did not have Alyson and Above All there. Their passion for what they do really shows through all the hard work they do. Thank you so much!!!

Teresa and Alyson are amazing! I honestly had not considered hiring a day-of coordinator until I met Teresa and Alyson at a Brett Matthews Photography event. They were so friendly and knowledgeable and about 6 weeks before my wedding I started thinking that I might need some help through the craziness of the process. I am so happy that I made that spur of the moment decision! Teresa worked tirelessly to help me design and put together my hotel welcome bags (that were amazing) some beautiful final touches (signing rocks, menu printing, finding and ordering my card box, ordering sparkly table numbers and linens, etc.) and of course connecting with all my vendors, gathering family members for photos, managing everything very very smoothly the day of (shuttle service, photo booth, band, dj). She was a tremendous help and both she and Alyson are just kind, caring, wonderful people that you want to have around. I would highly, highly recommend hiring them!

Teresa and Alyson were with us the day of our wedding with their wonderful "Day of Services". They were there to ensure all the details we had planned and were looking forward to ran smoothly and left us stress-free. My husband and I did not have a worry in the world the day of our wedding largely in part to Teresa and Alyson. From quick sewing of bridesmaid and Flower Girl dresses to moving furniture and seats, anything that could have went wrong was fixed before it came to our attention. With the two of them by our side that day, I can confidently say they were our saving graces! Thank you so much for your expertise, attention to detail, and dedication the day of our wedding. Above All Events helped to make it the most memorable day of our lives!

Teresa understood my daughters vision for her wedding and made it happen. The day was perfectly magical. Alyson was there the day of the wedding making sure everything went as planned. The wedding was at the Chelsea Mansion and everything had to be brought in. This was not an easy task. These ladies are awesome.
