Where to even begin? From the beginning, my partner and I felt taken care of and understood by Monica and Allyson. They helped create our event and truly shaped it into our dream vision. They helped coordinate all of our vendors and worked in perfect harmony together to make planning process stress free. Professional to the max!
On our big day, Monica, Allyson and Cassidy made sure the set went smoothly, all the vendors arrived and that we were in the right places at the right time. The three of them went above and beyond to take care of us and our families. Throughout the event they took fabulous photos and videos to ensure we had amazing content to look back on and remember the day. The content was perfect for sharing the moments on social media.
Monica and Allyson were born to plan events! Look no further when searching for an event planner. In the words of Tina Turner… they are simply the best!

Seamless execution resulting in a stress-free day!
We used Arch Events for the month of coordination for our wedding. Allyson was fantastic! She took care of our vendor timeline and our “run of show” and was receptive to any changes/requests we had, while still providing thoughtful advice from her immense experience. She made our entire wedding run seamlessly from start to finish, which allowed the two of us to simply enjoy our most special day. Allyson and Monica are building something great in Arch and we couldn’t recommend them enough!

Arch events made my vision a reality, and then some!
The ladies from Arch are quite the dynamic duo! We worked with Monica as our lead month-of-coordinator but spent time with Allyson day of. Whichever leading lady you chose you will be in good hands. Here's the thing about wedding planners - you want someone who can both support you in your vision, but also bring you back down to earth and tell you when you are going overboard. I had a VERY specific vision, and I was VERY involved in planning everything along with my now husband. Monica never made me feel bad about being overly specific with her and our vendors - she encouraged it. When I received some custom items for my wedding I questioned if they could "be better." She brought me right back down to earth with a resounding "are you kidding me - they're gorgeous." Monica worked tirelessly coordinating and staying on top of every vendor - even suggesting two which we ended up booking - and who ended up being incredible! Our band and celebrant. In the moments I was very indecisive, Monica was decisive - and I appreciated that. I wanted her opinion always - and she gave it. There were a lot of moving pieces during our wedding - and it was a big outdoor venue. Monica must have run a marathon the day-of. But she was always calm when we talked throughout the wedding day and night and always had a smile on her face. Allyson must have run back and forth to our hotel three times for items we forgot - even driving our dog Harbor back after our cocktail hour! The night didn't end up for them when we left our venue - they packed all our items up from the wedding and dropped them off at 1am at our hotel. What I love about Monica is yes, she is great at her job, but she is equally a wonderful person. She is the kind of girlfriend you want in your corner through anything. They are both young, ambitious, hard-working women. The kind you want to support - and hire! We are still on Cloud 9 from our wedding day - and I am so happy Monica was with us throughout the entire process to lift us up, 'make it nice,' just celebrate us. I am already dreaming up what other events we can work on together.

Best decision we made for our wedding
From the initial phone call with Allyson at Arch Events, we knew we were working with someone special. From helping us figure out our color scheme/design, to asking us about what our biggest fears were for the wedding (and then doing everything to make sure those things didn't happen), Allyson covered her bases and did so in a warm, effusive way. You can really trust her recommendation and relationships with vendors. She's detail-oriented, and also sees the big picture in a beautiful, cohesive way. Our wedding day was everything we wanted and more, and that's largely due to Allyson's expertise and good sense of humor. The team that she works with is excellent--thank you to Monica and Sarah who were so instrumental in making the day of go smoothly. We've been telling all of our friends with weddings in their future to hire Arch!

The best in the biz!
Where do I even start? Hiring Allyson (and Arch Events) was the best thing we did for our wedding. She was not only an incredible planner, but also acted my friend and therapist throughout the process. Allyson had the best advice about vendors, colors, rentals, and every other detail that we needed to decide for our wedding.
Allyson is so organized and thoughtful and it made the process so much easier for us. The wedding went off without a hitch and it was everything we had hoped for and more. Every person at the wedding kept telling us that we had the best wedding ever, and also that Allyson did an incredible job.
We would hire Arch Events again in a heartbeat, and would strongly recommend them to anyone who wants to laugh instead of cry while planning, take stressors off of their plates, and have the wedding of their dreams.

You should hire Arch!
Monica & Allyson were an absolute pleasure to work with. Not only did they take all of the stress out of the planning process, but they were invaluable in providing recommendations and in steering us toward the vision we had for our wedding. The day was perfect, and we are grateful to Monica for ensuring that it happened in that way. We highly recommend working with Arch!

Allyson and Arch made it happen
Towards the end of last winter, Lauren and I were trying to pull together a nice, but quick and easy to pull-off wedding, for about 100 or so of our family and close friends, in either Manhattan or Brooklyn, with day and date limitations, and where we also had some Kosher considerations in the mix. Easier said than done, apparently... we kept hitting dead ends in lining up vendors and dates, and some (planners, even) laughed us off entirely, not wanting to deal with a short 2 or 3-month runway. While trying our last ditch attempt before going the route of a small family-only affair, we coincidentally met Allyson and Arch Events, and that's when everything changed. We set out a 6-week target and with Allyson as our month-of-coordinator++++++, she went threw her contacts and helped us identify and line up some options for venues and vendors. In the end, we pulled together a fantastically memorable and perfect June wedding for us and all our guests. We know full well that without Allyson, our celebration would have been different from what we were hoping and thanks to her help, successfully pulled off.
Allyson - thanks for everything and helping us celebrate in the way we wanted. We sure are happy to have met you, your team, and all your recommendations

The best wedding decision we made!
It's hard to put into words how special Allyson and Monica are. Hiring Arch Events was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. They came highly recommended from a mutual friend and from my first call with Allyson, I knew that her energy was exactly what I needed for our wedding day. In the final weeks leading up to our wedding, I spoke to Allyson more than anyone else - she became not only our wedding planner but a therapist, a friend, and more. She answered every phone call, every question no matter how big or small. I felt so supported the whole time and I knew as long as Allyson was in my corner, the day was going to be great. The day of the wedding Allyson and Monica kept us on time, organized and were our personal hype women - making us feel happy and excited and not letting us worry about anything outside of celebrating our love. If anything was going on behind the scenes, they swiftly took care of it so we could have the best night ever. Allyson and Monica ended the night by hand delivering 20 pizzas to our after party after the pizza place cancelled on us....that is how amazing they are. To sum it all up - even my very chill dad the next morning said "what would we have done without them?!" They are simply the best - look no further, your research is done! Hire them today! Allyson and Monica we love you both and thank you for everything!!

Book them!
We could not express more gratitude for the dedication and hard work that Monica and Allyson from Arch Events (aka our fairy godmothers) put into our wedding. Arch is an INCREDIBLE tag team - one of the two women "take the lead" each event they plan - we had Monica as our lead. From the very beginning with her introductory phone call and meeting us IN PERSON at a location of OUR CHOICE, she was 110% dedicated to helping make our day perfect. Monica was responsive, caring, kind, optimistic, and organized to the max. She helped us with the big things, the little things, and everything in between, and even brought some of her own things to our reception to make it even better - she also surprised us with a couple of awesome things like bar signs and other knick knacks. From the beginning, we knew that we would create a long lasting relationship with them. Monica listened to our every desire, question, and idea and helped guide us to ultimately having no regrets from our big day. She was no knowledgable on everything that we just could not have known if by ourselves. Looking back on it, especially in a niche venue like Greenpoint Loft where you need to bring everything in yourself, there is NO way we could have executed the wedding like we did without choosing Arch to help us with their wedding coordination package (6 weeks). At this point, we are just hoping to have many more reasons to celebrate and host parties so that we can hang out with Monica and Allyson from Arch again! Could not recommend this company any more. If it's possible to run out of room on reviews, we just may.
Thank you SO MUCH to Monica and Arch Events. BOOK THEM NOW FOR YOUR EVENT! You will NOT regret it!

The best of the best!
Monica and Allyson of Arch Events are beyond experts in the field. They come with an organized plan, templates and thoughtful questions that calmed nerves from the start. They carried the mental load of planning a wedding and did so with warmth and genuine care. Arch Events seamlessly executed our planning process and absolutely crushed it on day-of coordination. I wish I had hired them for full planning from the moment I got engaged!
On a personal level, you spend a lot of time with your planners and vendors. Monica and Allyson felt like family. From our grandmothers to our young guests, everyone adored being around them. They are hilariously funny and strike the perfect balance between professionals and relatable humans. We can't wait to use Arch Events for all our family events moving forward - truly!

Seamless and Wonderful wedding because of Monica's Help!
We threw a backyard wedding with lots of different vendors and Monica helped us to coordinate everything. We truly couldnt have done it without her. She was so organized, warm, helpful and kind throughout the process. Can't recommend her services enough!

We used Arch for our Sept 21' wedding and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From vendor coordination to timeline creation and everything in between Allyson at Arch Events kept us sane and organized throughout! I've had countless guests comment on how helpful Allyson was day of as well - our wedding simply wouldn't have been the same without Arch!

A stress free wedding!
Monica was the Day of Coordinator at my wedding and did an amazing job! We had a several of vendors that we brought in to set-up and I didn't have to worry about coordinating and giving them directions on where everything went. On top of that my husband and I had a couple of boxes of DIY items. We handed her the boxes with post its and she managed to figure out where to put everything. With Monica running the event, I was able to just sit back and enjoy the day!

Monica and Allyson are the dream team! We hired them to do month of planing and it was the best money we spent! The amount of knowledge they have and the amount of detail they went into planing our minute by minute was amazing. I was stressed leading up to the wedding day and these two relieved all that for me. The day went so smooth and I honestly couldn’t have done it with our them, they were even able to tame the party animals that were there! I can’t recommend them enough

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Monica and Allyson for our wedding! We had one of those covid weddings that turned completely DIY and arch events swooped in and gave us an actual dream wedding. These ladies are so easy to work with and take all of your stress away because they know exactly what they’re doing. You give them an idea they have 5 ways to make it happen especially if you’re like me and know nothing about planning an event such as a wedding. Book them now!
