    Amazing, sweet, easy to work with, and professional!

    Nicole is by far the best wedding coordinator. Very easy to work with and goes above and beyond. She helps with everything, decorating, putting food out on trays, cleaning up, etc. Very professional and super sweet too.

    Excellent experience

    I would highly recommend Nicole. She was great to work with and very knowledgeable. The wedding rehearsal and wedding day went so smoothly thanks to her level of experience and positive attitude. As mother of the bride I really felt I could hand everything over to her and just focus on enjoying the day. Nicole worked with each of the vendors and was a great help with planning the flow of the day.

    Month of Coordinating W/ Nicole

    We hired Nicole for her month of coordinating for our September 2021 wedding. SHE WAS AMAZING!! There are so many other things to be done the week before the wedding and having Nicole take care of all last-minute coordinating with the timeline was SO HELPFUL! During our meeting before the wedding, she asked me all kinds of detailed questions that I wouldn’t have even thought of and that was sooo comforting to a Type A bride like myself. The day of the wedding she kept everything running so smoothly and had everyone where the needed to be but also took time to get the boys beers and check in on all of us. She took care of speaking with the vendors when they arrived and I didn’t even have to think about that which allowed me to get ready with my girls without worrying about the vendors at all. She did an AMAZING job of listening to what I wanted with décor and executed everything PERFECTLY without me feeling like I needed to be checking in on everything. I had a very specific vision of what I wanted for our wedding and she did a fantastic job of achieving that for us. I cannot speak enough praises of her services. She was so comforting to have around and is truly on top of everything. If you are even considering hiring Nicole, DO IT! She made our wedding day so much more enjoyable and way less stressful!

    Excellent Planner!!

    I had the pleasure of working with Nicole at a recent wedding and she was on top of everything. As a DJ having a great planner makes my night that much easier. She made sure everyone was in place for the intros kept the time line on track throughout the entire wedding. She also listed all of the special songs throughout the night on her timeline which made it easy for me to just glance down at the printout she provided to ensure I had the correct song loaded for the appropriate moment. If you are looking for a planner look no further.

    One of the Best Vendors We Hired!

    Nicole was the day of coordinator for our March 7, 2021 at The Terrace at Cedar Hill. Originally we were on the fence about needing a day of coordinator, but looking back on our wedding we cannot imagine Nicole not being a part of it.

    Nicole took all of our plans, vendors, etc. and executed our wedding flawlessly! We had family in town one week before the wedding and Nicole handled all last minute details with vendors during this time so we really did not have to worry about anything. Same thing for the day of the wedding. My husband, bridal party and family did not have to do much at all because Nicole took care of everything. This really allowed us to enjoy and take in the day.

    All of our other vendors and guests spoke so highly of Nicole after our wedding. Everyone was so impressed with her and how much she did. She ran our rehearsal the evening before the wedding and ensured everything went as planned on the day of. She worked with our venue (The Terrace at Cedar Hill) and setup all of our wedding decor, helped flip the ceremony area into the reception area, and kept everything running as per our timeline.

    Our wedding was seriously perfect and that is largely due to Nicole, but some of my favorite things about having Nicole were the small things. After my husband and I returned from pictures during cocktail hour, Nicole had a plate of appetizers and two drinks for us to have a quiet moment before the reception (Nicole's suggestion). She bustled my dress (which is no easy task) and throughout the night I would look back and she'd be fixing part of the bustle on my dress that came undone.

    We cannot imagine our wedding without her and appreciate everything she did for us. We highly recommend Above & Beyond Event Planning & Nicole to any engaged couple!

    A Must Have for a Stress Free Day!!!

    Nicole was a god-send! She was so easy to work with and she absolutely made my day FANTASTIC! She took care of everything for me including confirming times with vendors, helping decorate, and much much more that I cannot even begin to list! She made my day super special, and I was able to take in every single moment! She was also SUPER affordable! Thank you, Nicole!!!

    Best Coordinator Ever!!

    Nicole was absolutely amazing to work with when planning and executing our wedding! There were literally changes up until the week of the wedding due to constantly changing COVID requirements/restrictions and Nicole was on top of everything the whole time! Our wedding day went so smoothly, everyone complimented the flow of the day and how wonderful she was. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a planner/coordinator! Thanks so much, Nicole!!

    Truly Above and Beyond

    While we thought we could plan our entire event alone, 60 days before, we had to raise the white flag and contacted Nicole. And our only regret was not calling her sooner. Her experience with the venue and vendors was extensive and everything was coordinated with care. Nicole came with extra votives and table numbers, she was responsive and patient with all of our questions and second guessing. Best of all - the day went off without a hitch, even with the rain plan. Thank you for everything!!!

    Amazing day of coordinator

    Nicole was my day of coordinator on 10/16/20. She went above and beyond! I met with her at my venue a few weeks before the wedding and she was extremely knowledgeable and really helped me picture the flow for the big day. All of my family and bridal party raved about her! I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

    Highly recommend, excellent planner

    We had Nicole for our day of coordinator and she was a dream! She was extremely helpful when we needed to find a pastor last minute and was there the day of the wedding handling everything we needed and more. Even when we were walking in the rain she was right there getting drenched holding our umbrella. She made our special day stress free even when we forgot to put out decorations and our cake topper she went searching through boxes to find it before the guests arrived.

    She was very professional, hardworking and was an absolute pleasure to work with.

    Nicole is absolutely AMAZING

    They say the perfect say is never 100% “perfect”. I definitely seen how things could have not went that way if it were not for Nicole! Every detail, every check in, every dress check, to every tie fastened she was there making sure everything snd everyone was where needed! Our biggest concern before hiring Nicole was where in the world are we going to find someone to help this day go smoothly snd to ensure things are decorated that we cannot do ourself due to needing to get ready for the big day, that is where Nicole came along! I gave her my picture dreams and she brought it to life with our outside ceremony! The reception went so smoothly as well due to Nicole staying on top of things. I swear this girl is super woman because it was like she was in 5 places at once! I would love to have another event just to watch her work her magic! Thank you again Nicole! ❤️

    Wedding 9/6/20

    Nicole was absolutely amazing!! I can’t imagine having our wedding without her! We booked her for day of coordination and she met with us two weeks prior. She helped us develop an itinerary and timeline for the wedding, contacted all the vendors, and came to our rehearsal. On the day of the wedding, she helped decorate and setup, met with vendors when they arrived, and helped us communicate between the groomsmen so I didn’t see the groom before our first look. On top of helping everyone know their place during their actual ceremony and helping seat everyone, she made sure the whole rest of the day ran smoothly! She even helped us cut our cake and helped with clean up at the end of the night. She was extremely helpful and sooo nice and calming. I highly recommend booking Nicole!!!

    Could not have had a more perfect coordinator!

    Nicole Martin was my day of coordinator and she thought of everything! Any time something went wrong, she was on top of it and came up with a solution immediately. After my wedding I had so many people saying how awesome and sweet she is! I could not have had a better coordinator who was organized, kind and talented!

    Nicole is great, I wish I hired her sooner!

    First and foremost Nicole is kind, courteous, professional, organized and detail oriented.
    I hired Nicole as a day of coordinator because I had planned most of my wedding, but there was quite a few details I had left out that Nicole was able to fill in for me. If I could go back in time I would've hired her as my planner from the beginning. She made the whole process seamless and stress free.

    When my original venue cancelled on me two weeks before my wedding, Nicole was there to offer any help and assistance she could to find a new venue and made the transition to a new venue as smooth as possible. She kept in constant communication with my vendors and myself and worked diligently besides my new venue to bring my dream to life. On the wedding day itself I was able to relax knowing that Nicole was there to keep things running smooth.

    She truly has your best interests at heart and is more than willing to go the extra mile. I would highly recommend Nicole and Above and Beyond event planning to all future brides.

    Book Nicole right now!!!! She is 1000% responsible for my day going as well as it did! She was so easy to work with and made sure my husband and I were taken care of the whole day. She even packed us up some food for our wedding night. She’s super sweet and amazing! You would be crazy not to book her. Very professional and thinks of everything.

    Best. Decision. Ever.

    Nicole allowed me to relax and enjoy my daughter’s special day! She seemed to be everywhere at once and we didn’t have to worry about a thing! She was very responsive to any inquiry leading up to the wedding and had great ideas on ways to make things run smoothly. I also loved her personality. She has a very calming presence which we all appreciated. I am sooo happy she was a part of our day! I highly recommend you hire her! You won’t regret it!

    Month of Coordination

    Corey with Above & Beyond Event Planning was truly a God send on my rehearsal and wedding day! I did not have to worry about anything. She made sure I was relaxed and not stressed and that everything was flowing in a timely fashion. I can not say enough about her services, the way she puts you at ease and the manner in which she handles the major and minor details of a wedding. Don’t think twice....hire this vendor. You will not regret it! My wedding day would not have be the same without her. Thank you so much Corey!!

    Impeccable Level of Service

    I don't think I could speak higher of Nicole and the amazing job she did for my wedding day! We hired her as a day of coordinator and she truly went above and beyond with everything she did. She set up everything the day of, was there for rehearsal, creating a seating chart, timeline, itinerary and more. I was incredibly impressed with her commitment to make sure the day went well, even in the pouring rain! She made our day so special, I would recommend her to any of our friends in the Charlotte area!

    All about the details!

    Nicole was amazing! From sitting down with me and my mom and helping us figure out the details and schedule of the wedding day, to being there to take care of every last minute detail on the day of the wedding, Nicole (and Cori) were all about the details and did a fantastic job keeping everyone organized and making sure everything went smoothly. Our wedding would not have been the same without Above and Beyond Event Planning!

    Nicole was easy to work with from beginning to end. She was eager to do whatever needed to be done in order to make our wedding perfect and it was! Nicole was very good at making sure everything went off without a hitch and all the while having a very calm and relaxed demeanor. That is so important in an event coordinator because there are so many details involved in a wedding that can sometimes be overwhelming. We loved Nicole and hope to be able to work with her again in the future for my next daughter! :)
