    If you want a perfect wedding and pain free planning process, please hire Natalie. She is absolutely incredible!!! I had the honor and pleasure of working with her for two years (the length of my engagement) and she was with me the entire process. Any questions I had, any meetings to attend, emails to answer, Natalie was always first on it.

    My wedding was a large wedding (200 people) and included a full weekend of events in two different cities (Tampa and St Pete). If it wasn't for Natalie, none of it would have been as amazing as it was. She was literally worth EVERY PENNY AND SOOO MUCH MORE.

    P.S. She knows all the best vendors which is a huge help.

    I just want to thank you so much for making Stephanie & Andrew's wedding day go so smoothly & perfectly. Stephanie even said that if anything went wrong, we didn't know about. I hear about at least one major glitch in almost every wedding. The guests were overheard saying it was the best wedding they had been to in a long time. Everything was just wonderful.

    As sad as I am that our wedding day has come and gone, I am sad to not have the daily/weekly emails back and forth with Natalie. Living in Columbus, Ohio and planning a wedding in Tampa, Florida was definitely a trying task at the beginning. However, I immediately knew that getting a planner would be necessary. When we were given a list of planners to pick from (in which we did blindly- phone calls from miles and miles away) no one clicked and I had almost given up hope until speaking with Natalie. I immediately knew she was "the one"! Natalie's professionalism, attention to detail, quick responsiveness, complete honesty, and overall personality made our entire wedding planning a breeze. She helped me stick to budget when I was trying to blow it out of the water :) and always gave honest feedback! She came equipped with a wealth of knowledge and superb vendors! My now husband, who was happy with whatever I decided, even said he was highly impressed with how amazing Natalie was! Our wedding day went by flawlessly and if there was an issue, we did not know! Natalie and her sister, Jennifer, helped to make the entire day perfect! I loved seeing them run around in their hot pink shoes!! It was awesome!! If we had to do it all over again, I would not hesitate to go straight the Burkle sisters!! Thank you can't be said enough for how perfect they were for us, our family, and our fantastic day!!

    Working with Burkle Events and having them there on our special day truly made our wedding come together beautifully and all our dreams comes true. When you are getting ready for the big day and you and your guests feel everything is going perfectly and smoothly, then you know you truly have an amazing wedding coordinator, and that's exactly how it was for us! They are professional, but so genuine and show that they sincerely care for the couple, wedding party, and guests! It was so amazing that the day and night went down with almost no mishaps, which is a miracle in itself when you bring 200+ people together in one place!

    I can't recommend the Burkle Girls enough. I retained them for their "month of" services and received so much more. Natalie was a fabulous sounding board, helpful, and a terrific resource for vendors. She handled the wedding day smoothly and professionally. Do you really want your friends and family worrying on your wedding day about place card holders and where the florist is? Given that I knew nothing about planning a wedding, having Natalie as an ally was so comforting.

    Natalie and Jennifer were amazing! We don't consider ourselves the creative type and had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. We were in dire need of assistance! Our friend referred us to Burkle Events and assured us they were the best and worth every penny! After going through the process with them, I couldn't imagine it doing it by ourselves. They made every step of the process simple and easy and allowed us to focus on having a blast! Zero regrets, great wedding and people still talk about it to this day nearly a year later. If you are considering hiring Burkle Events, just do it. You will not regret it!!!

    We worked with Natalie for over a year to plan the wedding and every step of the way she was full of tips and recommendations and advice that was invaluable to us. She kept us on track, scheduled and attended appointments with vendors, and was always very quick to answer any questions we had. When it was all said and done, we had spent more than we originally planned on the wedding itself but I don't regret it. The day was absolutely beautiful and stress-free for not only us, but our family and friends! I handed over boxes of decor to Natalie the night before and her and Jen took care of everything the day of and it turned out more beautiful than I could have ever imagined!

    Excellent, wonderful and delightful to work with. Very responsive and very positive. Extremely calm along with very good attention to details. Extensive research done to compare reputable vendors and their professionalism.

    Natalie was the organized best friend every girl should have while planning her wedding. My mom lives in another state, and I knew I needed someone to help me plan my dream day. I hired Burkle Events right after we got engaged and opted for the full package (best decision ever). Natalie suggested vendors, scheduled meetings, attended any meetings I wanted to her to go to with me, coordinated with all the vendors prior to the big day to schedule a timeline, made sure everyone was where they needed to be when they needed to be there, and brought the vision I had in my head to real life. Her vendors were all amazing and provided discounts because of Natalie. The one vendor I chose to use instead of Natalie's suggestion was for our cake, and it ended up leaning at the ceremony. I learned my lesson! Natalie is experienced, knowledgeable and trust-worthy. I should have gone with her vendors for everything! not to mention, she and Jen are just the most awesome people ever! You will want to be their best friend. Trust me, hiring Burkle Events was my best decision after saying yes to my hubs!

    My fiancé and I work on cruise ships and hired Natalie 14 months before our wedding. We were home for 2 weeks and then went away for work, returning only 6 weeks before our wedding. Through email, phone calls, and lots of long distance, our whole wedding got planned seamlessly!
    Natalie kept me on task and continually checked in throughout the long planning progress, even if only just to make sure I was doing okay and to see if I had any questions that needed answering. She was happy to make the drive over to my city quite a few times so that we could walk through every detail together.
    The day of the wedding, Natalie was here, there and everywhere all at once! From ensuring the reception venue was set, to helping fix a bridesmaid dress crisis, to fanning me with my dress before I walked down the aisle, she handled everything calmly and efficiently. This continued during the reception; Natalie was always just nearby to let us know what was next, to make sure we had food to eat, and for any questions we had.
    I cannot recommend Natalie strongly enough! I wasn't sure if I could afford to have a wedding planner, but to brides everywhere, this is definitely something you should budget for! So many times on the wedding day, I had no idea where any of the vendors were or what they were doing, had no idea that there were any hiccups with transportation or my cupcakes (found it out later!).....it was wonderful! I was able to focus on the important thing, my marriage to my husband, and enjoy every last second without a single worry.
    When people ask about my wedding, I can truly say that it was perfect. Any problems that arose were unbeknownst to me until after the fact and I spent my time soaking in the moment and enjoying my family and friends, thanks to Natalie. This is how you want to spend your wedding as a bride; Burkle Events will make that happen for you! They definitely did for me!

    Words can't even describe how THANKFUL I am that we had Natalie and Jennifer of Burkle Events. We hired them for the "month of" service and they went above and beyond. I was an out of state bride and was very stressed out over the fact that I was so far away. I was totally put at ease once I started working with Burkle Events. Their connections within the industry are so helpful in getting things done. I needed some vendor recommendations and they were so helpful with those. I knew that if Burkle recommended them, the vendor could be trusted. They were also great advocates for us with our reception venue to make sure everything was done as we requested. The ladies at Burkle were responsive, detailed and a pleasure to work with. Above all, I really feel like Natalie and Jennifer genuinely CARED about me and my husband. They worked so hard to make sure we were happy. I highly recommend their services!

    My husband and I hired Burkle Events for full wedding planning service and it was the best decision we could have made! Natalie and Jen did an amazing job. They are very professional yet friendly, personable and considerate. They were there for us every step of the way from choosing vendors to attending vendor meetings and ensuring every detail was how we envisioned it to be. They were very flexible and always available when we needed them. Natalie and Jen were absolute lifesavers on the day of our wedding. Our ceremony and reception were planned to be held outside until the weather was far from cooperative. With the help of Natalie of Jen we didn't have to worry about a thing. They were quick to set up plan B inside which turned out to be more beautiful than we could have imagined. We will never forget the moment when Natalie came to get us to be introduced and she was soaking wet from running back and forth in the pouring rain helping guests get to their seats and get the bridal party in place. They truly did everything they had to do to make our day go smoothy despite the last minute change in plans. Our special day was perfect because of the Burkle sisters!

    I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the work you did to make Rachel’s wedding so beautiful. You were always available when we needed you and never got agitated with us when we kept throwing curve balls at you. I didn’t know how much I appreciated your hugs until I received them at the rehearsal and at the wedding/reception. I could just feel the stress melting away when you wrapped your arms around me. Thank you for including me in the little things – like when Dan and Rachel exchanged cards before the wedding and letting me see the room at the Sorosis before all our guests were allowed to come into the main room. Those things meant so much to me.

    You are a very special lady and I am so grateful that we had you plan one of the most important days in our lives.

    Natalie and her team were amazing to work with. Natalie was always very prompt to provide answers to my questions as well as cared about each and every detail of our wedding day. She answered the many questions my mom and family members had as well. I have recommended them to others and will continue to do so in the future!

    The Ladies of Burkle Events were fabulous!! We hired them for 'month of' planning and it could not have worked out any better. My Mom (MOB) did not want any worries the day of the wedding, so leaving Burkle Events in charge of all the small details and big timeline was a huge weight off our shoulders. I think the biggest help for me as the Bride was being able to tell ONE person want I wanted and when I wanted it done. They were always one step ahead and because they have been doing this for so long they knew how to keep the wedding moving forward and left no lag time between each even of the wedding. I HIGHLY recommend Burkle Events for your next big (or small) event!! Thank you Ladies!! :)

    Natalie was wonderful to work with. She was so helpful in the planning process. She was able to answer all of the questions I had and give great advice! The wedding day went so smoothly because of her presence and leadership of all of the vendors, guests and especially the wedding party. She calmed my nerves and was a reassuring presence throughout the wedding day and the months of planning! The teamwork of Natalie and Angela at Rocking H Ranch made our daughter's wedding near perfect!!!

    Natalie,

    I wanted to thank you for making Alex's wedding day so special. Along the way, we had so many little hiccups that by Saturday, I was so happy to have you handling everything. The way you amped up the tables with the flowers and candles- it was just fabulous and really blew me away. I've heard wedding guests use the words, "magical", "sparkling", "enchanting" and "Like a movie." You deserve the credit for taking all the pieces and putting it together. I'm not sure how you did it, but you pulled the vision right out of my head.

    The moment I'll always remember is when Alex asked me to come behind the head table and she said, "Mom, I want you to see what I see. It's everything I hoped for and more."

    Thank you and take care,

    Natalie is the most fabulous wedding coordinator! Not only is she professional, courteous, always on time and always on top of things, but she is a true friend. She helped me when I was stressed, gave me advice, and kept it all together for me. She was constantly available to me via phone and email and always made time for me. My wedding was more than I could have ever dreamed and even my vendors were excited when I told them who my wedding planner was!! My wedding was perfect and I could not have been more blessed to have Natalie by my side!

    This was our second wedding with Natalie and Jen. We first used them last year for our middle daughter's wedding, and again this year for our oldest daughters wedding. I can not say enough good things about how they organized the event. They are also a great resource for all of the other vendors such as music, flowers, venue, etc. They provided us the confidence we needed when picking the other important parties involved in that special day for our daughter. After using them the first time, we new what to expect form them, and they still exceeded our expectations.
    If you are planning a wedding, than you need bring in Burkle Events up front. When the day arrives, you will be able to just enjoy it and not have to worry about anything.

    Natalie and Jen were amazing to work with! They made the whole planning a wedding process very stress free!! Once we found the venue, Natalie was quick to help me secure everyone I would need at the price we were looking for to make our day fabulous! They also worked great with all of our vendors and even saved my dress from a little grass stain mishap! Our wedding was everything we could have imagined and more and we couldn't have done it without Burkle Events!

    I was very glad that I decided to work with a wedding planner for my wedding, and even more thankful that I chose Burkle events! My favorite part about Natalie is that she let me plan my own wedding, she just helped me find the resources to do so. She was very non-biased in what I wanted for my special day- anything I requested she helped me make a reality. She is a great listener and provides excellent advice. She was never offended if I turned down a suggested vendor- she always had another to recommend right away. Burkle events handled everything very smoothly and professionally- I was extremely impressed. One HUGE benefit that I didn't realize was so valuable about a wedding planner, is that all of my vendors had worked together before and it seemed as though they all enjoyed working together. It was fun to see everyone get along and work so well together, from the videographer to the DJ to the florist, etc. It took all of the pressure off of me so I was able to enjoy my day with my new husband and all of our family and friends. I actually got to spend a lot of time on our dance floor and catching up with guests I hadn't seen in a while! Hiring Burkle Events was the first and best thing I did when planning my wedding!

    Natalie at Burkle Events is the most amazing wedding coordinator you could ask for. We met Natalie and her sister Jen when planning a wedding in 2013, so when we knew we had another wedding in the family, Burkle Events was our first call. Natalie's exceptional organizational skills, wealth of information, calm demeanor, and amazing vendor relationships simplified the process. Never an obstacle she can't handle, respectful of all the people involved, prompt response to any questions, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to make your plans and dreams a reality. Throw that all in with warm hugs and treating your wedding like it was her own - you could not ask for more. Blessed to have found such caring and competent people to make a once in a lifetime day so special. The Burkle sisters are a joy to work with - these lovely ladies feel like a part of our extended family now!

    Jennifer and Natalie of Burkle Events are simply amazing. I had them for Day of coordination for my recent wedding, but they did so much more than that. I met Natalie in person at my venue over a year before my wedding. She went over everything and the communication began from there. She helped where I was stuck and gave me recommendations for the vendors I had left to book. She would send a message if it had been a little while to check in and see how my planning was going and if I needed anything. They then set me up with a guy to do my dress alterations (also amazing!) and Jennifer was there for that entire process. They then took over a month before the wedding, leaving me even more stress free and not needing to worry about contacting all of my vendors. They were there for the entire wedding rehearsal as well as the entire wedding until the night came to an end!

    Natalie and Jen are the nicest, most helpful individuals I have ever had the opportunity to meet and work with and I could not have asked for any better. They are amazing at what they do and make sure things go smoothly so you can truly enjoy your wedding day!

    Thank you so much for being a part of our day, you completely exceeded any expectations I had for day of services. Our day was everything I had ever dreamed of and would not have been possible without Burkle Events!

    Thanks to Natalie at Burkle Events, my wedding was the absolutely the most gorgeous and dreamy day ever. I was so worried about little details leading up to my wedding and Natalie assured me that I would not have to worry. Natalie took care of everything throughout the planning process and made it easy for me with my busy schedule. When I tell you Natalie knows what she is doing, I didn't worry about a thing on my wedding day leaving me to enjoy the experience hands off! The ceremony was gorgeous and the reception was transformed into more that what I could have ever expected. My Starry Summer Nights Dream wedding was filled with beautiful personalized details, gorgeous decor with superior execution! Not only was my wedding the most beautiful wedding ever imagined, the compliments are still coming as to how magical the day was. Thank you so much Natalie and the team for ensuring the most important day of our lives, our wedding experience was seamless, stress free and beyond a dream! Love, Alansen & Brandon

    If I could give one piece of advice to any couple getting married or planning an event it would be to hire Burkle Events! We hired Natalie for mostly week/day of, however, due to our busy schedules we ended up piling more on her plate and she picked right up where we left off seamlessly! I consider myself quite a picky bride and did some hard work with DIY projects and in 5 minutes of explanation, she got my entire vision and executed it beyond my wildest dreams. I cannot rave enough about Burkle Events and if I could go back and hire them to plan the whole shebang I would!! Thank you Natalie for making my wedding day the best day of my life!! <3

    Natalie and the Burkle team were with us every step of the way and were extremely professional, but very personable, friendly and available to us. They offered their assistance and expertise throughout the entire process and guided my wife on all key steps. We cannot provide enough THANKS for the job they did. They were willing to cover all parts of the event including planning, rehearsals, ceremonies, and receptions. Every detail was addressed and it made all the difference. We were amazed at the availability and quick responses. THANK YOU NATALIE!!

    We don't know where to begin thanking these two lovely, kind, compassionate, fun, loving, generous, and overall amazing women! We definitely had our dream wedding, thanks to Burkel events! We spent a year planning with Natalie and Jennifer and not only were they ALWAYS available to talk to but always had answers and quick solutions! The girls helped and guided us every step of the way in our planning, but most importantly always had our best interest at heart. We can't express how smooth our magical day went! We enjoyed ourselves and everything was perfect, the girls would not have it any other way ;) Thank you both so much we could not have picked anyone better to share our moment with ! We were so lucky! XO- Ellesse & Justin

    I've struggled to start this review because it's so hard to put into words how thankful we are for Burkle Events. Looking back on our wedding two months ago, I can safely say that hiring Natalie and Jennifer as our month-of coordinators was one of the BEST decisions we made during our planning. Their professionalism, open communication, and attention to detail made it so clear why they are the best in the business! To say that our wedding was my baby would be an understatement. We worked so, so, so hard on every last tiny detail, and it was (quite frankly) scary to think about handing it off to someone else. Enter Natalie and Jennifer. I was AGONIZING about what to do and a friend (God bless her) recommended that I get in touch with Burkle Events. Natalie immediately put me at ease, and I knew within just a few minutes of talking with her that she really "got" my vision and understood what was really important to us. They kept in great communication with me in the weeks leading up to our wedding, created an unbelievably detailed timeline for the day of our wedding, came to my house (twice!) to pick up all of our decor, set everything up beautifully, and made our wedding day absolutely perfect - if anything went wrong, I never knew about it…which is how it's supposed to be! They were present for set up and vendor arrivals at both our church and our reception venue, and they were always in the right place at the right time. They brought my vision to life, and it was such a rush to see it all come together with their expert help. Throughout the entire day, they so impressed my husband and I with how they watched out for our needs during the reception. Just when I turned around looking for lipstick, Natalie was right there. And just when my husband was handed a card from a guest, Jennifer was right there to take it from him. I could write a novel about how wonderful they are, but I'm out of room(!), so I will just say that we CANNOT thank them or recommend them enough!

    Natalie was very accommodating and flexible dealing with a nervous groom that couldn't sit back and let them handle things, lol. From our initial meeting to the day-of, Natalie was perfect at calming our every worry.
    She was always very quick to respond whenever we had a question or concern and for a bride, that's always important! She's super professional and warm and gets your vision and makes it happen!
    Our wedding day went better than great! The whole day flowed with ease from one event to the next.
    I would most certainly recommend Burkle Events to every bride!

    Retaining the services of Burkle Events for my daughter's wedding was a Godsend. Even though my daughter had very specific thoughts of what she wanted done, Natalie was helpful in providing recommendations about vendors and ideas about getting everything just the way we wanted it. Burkle Events worked seamlessly with all the vendors involved and it was clear that they respected Natalie and were willing to take direction from her throughout the event. It was wonderful to actually be able to enjoy the wedding and not have to worry about any details on the day of.

    Natalie and Jennifer were absolutely wonderful from the minutes we met them. They listened to our ideas and helped us coordinate everything we needed to make them become a reality. They went above and beyond to make sure we found the right vendors that fit our budget and desires. Their fun and energetic personalities made the whole planning process really enjoyable. It really felt like working with long time friends. They were great at answering all our questions quickly. Everyone who attended our wedding thought the details were amazing and we totally agree. We are forever grateful for all their hard work to make our wedding day just what we wanted & more! Thanks ladies!

    Every guest at our wedding said it was the best they had been to, and that's not an exaggeration. The Burkle Events girls helped us turn our vision into the perfect day and the perfect wedding for us. Everyone says that stress and problems the day of your wedding are inevitable, but we found that not a single part of the entire day was anything other than perfect, and that's thanks to the Burkle Events girls.

    From the moment I met Natalie on rehearsal night, I knew our event was in good hands. The gloomy weather forecast predicted a 50-90% rain chance for my daughter's outdoor wedding - very stressful for the mother of the bride. Natalie was so positive and professional that I felt totally at ease heading into Saturday. Unfortunately, the weatherman was correct. Natalie handled the changes at the venue to an inside ceremony effortlessly. She worked non-stop the entire day to help create a beautiful wedding event. She was quick with fresh ideas that helped to make the reception even more lovely. I highly recommend Burkle Events for anyone needing a caring, competent guide for a stress-free event .

    Natalie Codella did a great job. I was not sure about destinations wedding prior to our event, but Natalie Codella placed everyone at ease. She was very professional and kept everyone calm and made sure everyone had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend her again. Thank you for a wonderful and beautiful wedding in Sarasota!

    Simply put, I don't think we could have been able to put on our wedding if it had not been for Natalie and Burkle Events. We had so many different changes and incidents and Natalie was able to help us navigate through them all. They really showed their worth on the day of the wedding. Throughout all the hoopla, Natalie was able to keep the bride and the groom happy despite anxiety attacks, family drama, etc. It was as if she were a Hollywood director sitting behind the scenes running the show. Everything was on time, everyone knew where to go. I just don't know how we would have been able to keep track of everything if we didn't have Natalie. At first we thought we would be able to plan this wedding by ourselves, we were soon proven wrong, and it was Natalie and Burkle Events that came to our rescue.

    I am so thankful to have had Burkle Events provide their services on my amazing wedding.
    Anytime a change was needed or questions, Natalie answered right away.
    Natalie made sure I was doing everything that was needed in a timely manor.
    On my wedding day I did not worry, stress or have to do anything; but enjoy my day with family and friends.
    My goal was to a an event that all will be talked about for years to come....
    I could not have pulled off such a simple, elegant, smooth day without Natalie and Jen......

    These girls are absolutely amazing! Hands down the best money we spent. In the beginning of the planning process I was a DIY bride who could do it all myself. I quickly became very indecisive with all the choices and needed help making decisions and that's where the Burkle sisters came in. They helped me realize my "view" and then helped me make it all come to life. They helped us decided on a venue, find vendors and became part of our family in the process. My wedding was amazing! I couldn't have dreamed of how perfect it turned out. Everything went smoothly, every detail was perfect, and if there were any problems throughout the night we had no idea. They took care of everything. I would recommend them to any bride who wants a stress free planning experience and the wedding of her dreams!

    Natalie and Jennifer Burkle were recommended to my daughter by a friend that had used them as planners for her wedding. We could not have made a better decision in hiring them. They quickly became part of our extended family. They helped us with the daunting task of choosing: venue,vendors, flowers, band, invitations etc. They gave us much needed advice and direction, but never in a pushy way. They came to meetings with us to review contracts and give input. On the day of the wedding they took care of everything and quickly fixed any concerns we had. Even my husband said " I don't know how someone could have a big wedding without a planner to help". My daughter's wedding was the wedding of her dreams and I do not think I could have accomplished that without the help of Jennifer and Natalie. Our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been too. The only downside is she is my only daughter so I will not have an opportunity to work with them again.

    On your big, hectic, wonderful wedding day it’s comforting to have someone by your side. Not your future husband – your wedding planner! Natalie Codella with Burkle Events was that someone for me and I would highly recommend her to other brides. Natalie is all business, but with a very calming way about her. I was a nightmare bride – I had no vision, no idea what a tablescape was, all I knew is that I wanted the event to look good and for guests to have a good time! Natalie to the rescue! She helped me shape a theme for the evening, suggested great vendors, created a detailed timeline and most importantly – got me down the aisle. Natalie was a life saver for not only me and my husband, but also for my mother and mother-in-law. She accepted the stress of event planning to provide us with the gift of being able to enjoy our special day with friends and family.

    I used Burkle Events for full service planning for my wedding. Immediately after meeting Jennifer & Natalie, I knew they were the perfect choice. They were consistently available for me and went above and beyond all of my expectations. My wedding was absolutely flawless and beautiful thanks to these ladies. They are absolutely amazing at their jobs and I wish I could get married all over again because they made the planning process enjoyable. They have a lot of their own rentals to help brides to stay in budget and have great relationships with other amazing vendors. Natalie was so organized and helped me stay on track with planning and my budget. During the planning they became such a big part of my life and I am so blessed to have them to help me have the wedding of my dreams. I love these ladies and couldn't thank them enough for everything they have done for me.

They make the process so smooth. When you first meet them you can't help but fall in love with them. If you want a easy wedding planning process hire these ladies. Thank you Natalie & Jen for making my wedding a dream come true & baby shower a time to remember. The entire planning was stress free, which I'm forever thankful. Sarah

    As the mother of the bride I can confidently recommend Burkle Events to anyone planning a wedding. Planning the first wedding in a family of 3 daughters is exciting, but also frankly a little scary. I knew this day would be special, but I never would have thought the addition of two people I had never met before would make it everything my daughter and her soon to be husband could dream of - that is until I met Natalie and Jennifer Burkle. We worked closely with Natalie along the way and she put us in touch with amazing vendors, answered all our question, and kept us on track. She did all this with an enthusiasm I kind of envy and just made the whole process a joy for all of us. There was literally nothing she did not make sure turned out as planned-or often even better. Rehersal went perfectly with her help and direction, and the Burkle sisters made everything run smoothly on wedding day. These are people who really care about making your day special and assuring you have no worries to deal with. They are amazing people who you will never regret involving in one of the most special days a family will share with each other. Much love and thanks to them for everything - worth much more than the fees they charged. Have another daughter getting married in 2014 and Burkle Events was the first call!

    Having the Burkle sisters was a true blessing!! It ended up raining on my day and they were so great the week before finding the tent and heaters. Even running to Home Depot on the day of to buy plywood for the band to play on (wet grass and electric not a good combo). These girls busted their behinds the whole night and was so thankful they were there to take the stress away from me and let me enjoy my day.

    Working with Burkle Events was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We knew right away after meeting with Natalie and Jennifer that they were right for us. They were very reasonably priced. We went with the full planning option. Natalie and Jennifer were always a phone call, email, or text message away. Natalie and/or Jennifer always got back to us right away, and we sometimes wondered if Natalie ever sleeps!

    Throughout the planning process, we always felt like we were high priority. Natalie and Jennifer were always available to us and always gave us great advice on everything. The wedding rehearsal and wedding day went off without any big issues. Natalie ran the rehearsal with Jennifer's assistance (since our pastor didn't show up due to confusion on start time). We were under a time crunch at the venue on rehearsal night since there was a wedding happening that night, and with Natalie and Jennifer's experience, everything went perfect.

    On our wedding day, it was SO nice knowing that we had Natalie and Jennifer there for the day. Just knowing the girls would be there to deal with any problems and make sure things went smoothly went a long way for both of us. All of our guests had nothing but good things to say about the rehearsal, wedding, and reception. Natalie and Jennifer stayed afterwards, and even helped make sure everything got to where it needed to go. We couldn't be happier with the results.

    Natalie and Jennifer were an absolute pleasure to work with. We highly recommend Burkle Events for all of your wedding needs! You absolutely won't regret choosing them as your wedding coordinators. We feel like we became friends throughout the process, and it was sad to say goodbye to these ladies at the end of the wedding. Thank you again Natalie and Jennifer! You ladies rock!

    We can’t even begin to find enough words of praise or thanks for Natalie and Jennifer at Burkle Events! Burkle Events made my wedding a reality! I was a very busy bride and wasn’t sure where to begin with respect to planning a wedding. I knew I needed a planner. As soon as I met Natalie, I felt like I knew her forever – she is so personal and absolutely understood the theme and look I wanted to have for the wedding - I knew right away we needed her!!! She created a vision board for us and everything was spot on! They helped us at every stage and kept me on a timeline and kept our budget in mind. They helped us review contracts with vendors, advise on where to cut costs without jeopardizing the “fabulous” we wanted, and recommended vendors to work with. Our guests still swear our wedding was one of the best and most beautiful weddings they had ever been to! Natalie was always in communication with us either via text, email or phone at any time – day or night to discuss new ideas we had or if she was out and found something she thought might work for our special day. The day of the wedding was such a relief to have both Natalie and Jennifer there – from bustling my dress more times than I can count, to assisting vendors with set up, to helping guests with seats – they were the linchpin to the wedding day. We truly mean it when we say; we could not have had such a great wedding without them! I remember arriving at our wedding venue and was absolutely stunned and blown away at how well they captures our vision and made our thoughts and ideas a perfect reality. I would highly recommend Burkle Events for your wedding needs. You will not only have your expectations pleasantly exceeded beyond belief, but have friends forever! We Love These Ladies…they are truly the best at what they do!

    The Burkle sisters are just awesome!!! They really delivered on our big day and there was not a single thing that my Groom, mother or I had to worry about. They are so friendly, creative and thoughtful and overall just really good at what they do. They worked so hard to ensure we had the perfect day, I don't know how they did it but I will forever be thankful!!

    I hired Burkle Events as my day-of planner, but really they were so much more than that!! I worked mainly with Natalie, and I can't say enough about her!! For starters, she's extremely likeable and her enthusiasm is contagious! She's extremely knowledgeable of the Tampa Bay wedding scene and was a HUGE help to me in suggesting my vendors. She very responsive, and she truly understands your vision for your wedding. She takes so much stress off of you, especially the week of the wedding, when your stress is the highest... you don't have to worry about confirming vendors, the timeline of the day, etc. You just KNOW it will be handled correctly, and that was very comforting to me! our rehearsal and wedding day was flawless (at least to my knowledge!!) and I know it was because of Burkle Events and their working so smoothly with all of my other vendors. I would recommend them to any bride who wants their day to be perfect! Even if you don't think you need a full on wedding planner, having them for at minimum as day-of planners will ensure you can truly enjoy the wedding day with little stress!! Well worth it!!

    Natalie of Burkle Events was wonderful to work with! She was hugely helpful in recommending and coordinating vendors, consulting on budget and theme, keeping us on a schedule, making sure everything was on track and doing all the set-up on the wedding day.

    When it was certain we were going to have rain on our outdoor wedding day, she jumped into action to get us a tent at the last minute, and quickly adapted the day-of to get everything set up beautifully. She worked so hard the entire day, in the rain, to make sure everything was perfect.

    Her calm and patient demeanor is also exactly the kind of personality you want handling multiple vendors/family/guests, especially in the excitement of a wedding :)

    I am the sister of the bride, who is now married to the man of her dreams. I sat in on almost all of Noelle's (my sisters) meetings with Natalie, and no matter what we were concerned about, Natalie had a way of making sure that we were all calm and comfortable. We had a bit of a surprise, being that the wedding was originally planned to be outdoors, when a storm decided to roll through on the day of the wedding. Natalie took care of everything in her ever present calm and professional manner. The day of the wedding was a very peaceful one. My sister and I were able to spend time together, put our makeup on together, and of course I was given the task of lacing up her dress. We were able to do all of these things because we had such faith in Natalie, we didn't have a worry in the world. I would recommend her services to anybody who is planning on getting married. I know that when my day comes, she will be the first person that I call. We are all forever grateful for the amazing amount of work that was put into this wedding by Natalie and her team, all with a constant smile.

    I was skeptical that I even needed a wedding planner but am so thankful that I booked Burkle events. As with any event, things got so hectic the last few days and Natalie and Jennifer swooped in and transformed my backyard into a beautiful, vintage, rustic reception area, just as I had envisioned it. They were amazing. I also knew I made the right choice when I frantically called Natalie to state that I had left something very important for the wedding at my house, to which she replied 'It's already at the ceremony' because she had taken care of it for me.
    Thank you for all your help!

    Jennifer was amazing and so easy to work with... The only thing I regretted was not hiring her early in the wedding process. Once we started working today, she made everything so easy. Jennifer and her sister Natalie we so helpful the day of, we would of been lost without them. Great job!!

    Natalie was wonderful to work with. Prior to the actual wedding, she mostly interacted with my wife and daughter. I had the pleasure of interacting with her in the last two weeks prior to, and the day of the blessed event. My wife and I don't know how we would have done it without her. I have colleagues and friends that have hired other Wedding Planners, and they all had some sort of negative experience, and usually spent more. Our experience was wonderful. The event could not have gone any smoother, and we just got to enjoy the day. Natalie and Jennifer took care of everything.

    If you are planning a wedding, don't take a chance on your memories of that day. Call Burkle Events!

    My husband and I made the best decision of our whole wedding process (besides picking each other as spouses) when we hired Burkle Events. Getting married is so exciting, but it involves so many small details and many important big details. For us, the whole process was enjoyable and wonderful! Natalie was there every step of the way reminding us what we should be getting done and doing SO much of the ground work. Even choosing the vendors for the event seemed daunting until Natalie simply set up a few appointments with some of her recommendations and then went with us to help us make sure we picked the perfect ones for our vision. I can honestly say I do not think I would have found such amazing vendors without Burkle Events. Natalie never imposed her opinion or thoughts but rather was there if we were not sure how something would look, or what our guests would most enjoy. Through the whole process, she was just there anytime I needed her, always making everything see simple! She honestly saved my sanity (and my wedding probably!). She was able to take our vision and personalities and create the small differences that made such an impact. I received so many compliments on our wedding day because of the adorable small details she brought to the ceremony and reception. The day of the wedding Natalie and Jennifer both worked so hard to make everything perfect! Nothing was missed or stressful and it was just simply perfect! Many of my friends talked about how crazy their wedding day was and they were too busy, because of Natalie and Jennifer, my wedding day was stress-free and simply amazing! I would recommend Burkle Events to anyone who wants to have a spectacular event! These ladies are beautiful people inside and out and they truly work hard to make sure your event is exactly what you dreamed of!

    From the first time we met “The Girls” as we referred to them, we knew they had to be a part of our wedding. From the start, we had a great level of comfort and knew we were in good hands.

    Whether it was responding to 10:00pm frantic emails during our months of planning, or staying late to break down after our Big Day, the Burkles’ went above and beyond EVERY step of the way. They answered all of our questions (which we had about a million) and calmed our nerves.

    They recommended the best vendors, both for our personalities and our budget and saw each aspect through to the finish. We still can’t thank them enough for everything they did to make our dream a reality.

    Jennifer and Natalie Burkle were a pleasure to work with! I hired them as my day planner for my June 1st wedding. Even though they were my day-of wedding coordinators, they went out of their way to make sure I had my checklist finalized, details wrapped up and all my ducks in a row. They accompanied me to my bridal portraits prior to my wedding as well. On my wedding day, Jennifer was on my side and I knew that my big day would be executed very well. My wedding day was perfect and I am still glowing with happiness. Love the Burkle Girls!

    I hired Burkle Events as wedding planners for my beach wedding. I had a very small wedding, only 60 people, so you may think a wedding planner is not needed for such a small wedding, but hiring them was the best thing I could have done. It really helps reduce the stress of the planning process, and makes everything run more smoothly. My ceremony and reception went on perfectly because of their help. Burkle Events offer several options, I chose the “Day-Of” package ….to help organize the day so it went smoothly, to direct the caterer, the florist, the DJ, etc so I didn’t have to worry and run around all day taking care of those things. Burkle Events was amazing. I highly recommend them. Although only hired for the “Day-Of” wedding package, they check in with you each month prior to the wedding to answer any questions or help with any problems you are having. I needed their help with my centerpiece decorations. I had searched and searched for a specific centerpiece I wanted but I could not find it online or in any stores. I told Natalie and Jennifer (Burkle Events) about it, they researched it, and they found it for me!! They gave me great advice on florists, DJs, and photographers and helped steer me in the right direction when I wasn’t sure. They have tons of great ideas. They are always available to you by phone or email, day or night. They were very reliable, extremely organized, and genuinely wanted to help and make my wedding day the happiest ever. I had the utmost confidence in them the whole time. I knew they would be on time, I knew they would be prepared, I knew they would be meticulous about all the little details. They were very professional throughout the whole process. They were the reason I could relax and enjoy time with my family and friends before, during, and after the wedding. Hiring Natalie and Jennifer (Burkle Events) was the best decision I made! I highly recommend them for any event you have planned! You will love them!

    If you are looking for a wedding coordinator Natalie of Burkle Events is your girl!

    We hired Burkle Events to be our day of coordinators for our outdoor wedding on 6/1/13. I had come across their website long before I ever got engaged. I immediately liked their style. When I did get engaged sometime later and I thought of getting a coordinator I knew that I wanted to meet with Burkle Events to see if they were a fit.

    Natalie and I hit it off immediately on our first phone conversation. I was so excited to setup a meeting to finally meet her. When we finally meet I knew she was going to be the one. Our styles were very similar and I loved how she did some research on my Pinterest wedding boards before we even met. She easily dug through all of the things I had pinned a hit the nail on the head with what I was looking for for my big day.

    Even though she was just our day of coordinator she was there with my every step of the way from the day we booked Burkle Events on. We constantly emailed back and forth and she was a wealth of information.

    The day of the wedding went so smoothly because of Natalie. She handled EVERYTHING! I didn't have to worry about a single thing that day. Which is exactly what I wanted. With very little instruction she made our vision come to life.

    I absolutely adore Natalie and cannot begin to thank her enough for the amazing job she did. She is hands down the best event planner out there.

    My groom and I had hired Burkle Events for our "Day-Of" wedding planners. The whole experience with Jennifer & Natalie was just what we had signed up for. While I had most of the big stuff taken care of, their expertise and fine attention to details was extremely helpful. I planned my wedding for over a year, and all along the way the girls would check in and see if I needed help with anything. They definitely provided us with plenty of time and it was well worth the money. The peace of mind during the weeks leading up to my ceremony was priceless. Thanks to Natalie and Jennifer I was as cool as a cucumber on my wedding weekend. My hubby and I are both from out of town, so a majority of our guests were also from out of town. The last thing I wanted was for them to feel like they had to "work" during all of my wedding festivities. These girls really allowed us to enjoy every moment of our time with our family and friends without a worry in the world. They are talented, experienced, connected and truly very sweet individuals to work with. If you pick these ladies as your planners, I promise you will not be disappointed!

    Natalie and Jen from Burkle Events did an amazing job of coordinating our daughters wedding. They were invaluable in the planning process from beginning to end! From helping us select the perfect venue, to arranging appiointments with vendors and boutiques, to making every last detail of the wedding day perfect!! They took our daughter's vision of a simple, yet elegant wedding theme and helped us make her dream come true. We chose the option of their full service and we were so happy with that decision, they made the process seem tireless and enjoyable. Thier down to earth personalities and genuine care and concern about every detail didn't go unnoticed on our daughter's wedding day, our guests couldn't compliment us enough on what a beautiful, fun event it was. Natalie and Jen have the gift of taking a couples dream and creating it into a beautiful memory that will last forever! They will be lifelong friends to our family! ~ Jeanne and John Oddo

    When I met Jennifer and Natalie about 15 months before my wedding, I was pretty overwhelmed about the planning process. I lived in DC and was planning a wedding in Florida, with a fairly busy job and a lack of knowledge about vendors, themes, etc. While I was excited about having a wedding, the whole idea of managing each step was not something I was looking forward to.

    Cue The Burkle sisters! They know every step of decision making and walk you through it all. They also have a great portfolio of vendors, which I used most of, but when I wanted to check someone outside of their portfolio, they were awesome at making that happen. They custom their approach to you and find out what you need help the most. Every visit I had to Florida, they set up the appointments and came with. They also managed all the contracts, payment schedules etc.

    But most importantly of all, they are really invested in making sure you have a wonderful wedding. They are extremely caring and warm, enthusiastic to talk about details, and flexible with change. Natalie was extremely accessible via phone and email, and I never felt like I was burdening them with requests, even when it got down to the last 36 hours!

    All in all, we had a fabulous wedding. Quoted by some as "the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to". I couldn't have asked for a better day and I am glad that I had the Burkle event team there every step of the way.

    Let me first start off by saying I am a wedding photographer in the Tampa/St. Pete area, so I know 1st hand what goes into making a wedding "successful". Aside from having the perfect photographer (wink wink;), the wedding planner is #1 on my list!!!I can't even begin to explain what Natalie and Jennifer accomplished up to my day and on my wedding day. Being in the industry, you secretly have expectations, but realize things don't always turn out like they are supposed to. I.E. Weather!! Hurricane force winds turned my day inside out... but that didn't stop Jen and Natalie! They came to the rescue and I never flinched. They are AMAZING, PROFESSIONAL, COURTEOUS, KIND, did I say AMAZING!! If you are looking for a relationship with two amazing sisters with a kick-but wedding planning company, these are your girls. I love them dearly, and they are worth so much more than they know!! I would have been lost without them!!

    I am the mother of the bride and when my daughter first told me she hired wedding planners to help her with the wedding. I felt a little left out on helping my daughter with the most wonderful day of her life.
    I did realize not living close to my daughter and her busy work schedule it was the right thing to do.
    When I first met Natalie and Jennifer how could you not realize they would make this day very special. Things never would have gone so wonderful without out the both of them. They were there with my daughter and her husband from early planning right to the wedding day. They are just perfect and caring to make sure everything went exactly as planned. This day was just perfect there is nothing I can say should have been done different. Many wonderful thanks to Natalie and Jennifer for a story book wedding.

    Hire Jennifer and Natalie! We hired Burkle Events for "day of" wedding services - but Jennifer and Natalie went above and beyond that. They were so helpful with everything leading up to the wedding - making recommendations of vendors for our taste and budget, planning the timing of everything, contacting our vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page. As the bride, I wasn't exactly sure about everything that I wanted for the day, but they helped me figure out my vision and they helped make it all come true. My husband and I could not have been happier with how our wedding day turned out and we cannot thank Jennifer and Natalie enough!

    I don't know what I would have done without Jennifer and Natalie! I was across the country for most of the wedding planning, and they were so accommodating with setting up times to Skype or chat on the phone around my busy schedule and time zone differences. I was stressed out about planning a wedding while not being in the area, but they immediately put me at ease about everything and I knew my wedding was in good hands. They were always so patient with my parents and me, and understood my husbands and my vision for the wedding. They have built relationships with amazing vendors in the area, so finding vendors that fit into our price range, style, and comfort was a very smooth process. And even the more unique requests I had for wedding details, they were able to help make a reality. Jennifer was always on top of everything, and was always available to chat via phone, text, or email day and night whenever things came up. They helped all of my visions come to life and the wedding day exceeded all of my high expectations! These ladies work incredibly hard, yet always have a positive attitude and a smile on their faces. They are worth every penny and more!! Thank you both for everything, my husband and I are so grateful to have worked with you all!! :) -Natalie and Cole

    These ladies bust their butts! They will do everything in their power to make sure you have what you want for your wedding. Natalie was able to pull strings and make things happen that I would have never of been able to do on my own.

    They become your sisters during this process and are able to keep your stress level WAY down (which was great for me, since I am finishing college). They take care of all of the small details (as well as the major ones) which allow you to have a happy and stress free wedding.

    I love these ladies and the success of my wedding is all because of them!!

    THANK YOU BURKLE EVENTS!!!!

    Burkle Events did an outstanding job for us. We couldn't have been happier! My wedding was in a different state then Burkle Events, but it felt like they had been here all along. The day of the wedding I didn't have to worry about ONE thing. They took care of me, and didnt' let me stress about one little thing. Everything was on time, and looked goregous! My family and friends were just beyond impressed with their hard work and professionalism. My day could not have gone as perfect without them and I seriously have no words for how thankful I was to have them plan my day! Thank you again!!!

    We hired Burkle Events for our "day of" wedding coordination. I called them two weeks before the wedding in desperate need of someone to help me "pull things" together and put into place everything that I had been planning for a year. Natalie stepped right in and in no time I felt like the hugest weight had been lifted off my shoulders. She was VERY responsive, friendly, professional, and knew her "stuff." My only regret is that I didn't get Burkle Events involved sooner so that I could have had more of their expertise. They were awesome! Thanks so much, Burkle Events!!

    I was impressed by Jennifer Burkle and her Burkle events from our first meeting. She is very professional and was very responsive. She was extremely helpful in everything. Our wedding was her first Pakistani Wedding I believe, and she handled it very well. Our wedding was a double Valima and also we had a Mehndi that week. We invited her and her sister as guests. They came and participated as staffers that helped with the program, but also enjoyed with us in the celebration. The day of was run flawlessly and many people remarked how well it was executed. I think that having Jennifer, her sister, and the rest of their team there helped--especially since we had such a huge event (450 people). I would definitely recommend her to others and she is very reasonable in terms of costs. She has numerous packages and can customize it for you. She helped with many things including the design and printing of the menus, welcome cards, and special poem. All in all I am very happy and am sure you will be too.

    Hi Natalie,

    First of all, we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such an amazing job! Our wedding would of not turned out the way it did if it wasn't for you and your great company.
    I have no words to express how grateful we are to have found your company.
    From the day we met I knew you were going to be awesome and you were. Everything we had written on the timeline was accomplished and on time and I would of never pictured that if i had no wedding coordinator. I can honestly say my wedding was one of the bests days of my life and I thank you for making our day so special.
    May god continue to bless you and your great company.

    Xoxo,
    Juan & Emily Martinez

    I wish there were more stars I could give to these ladies! When I first met Natalie I was a totally panicked bride-to-be who had absolutely no idea where to start! Natalie instantly put my mind at ease and has been with me every step of the way! I would, without a doubt, highly recommend Natalie and Jennifer to any bride-to-be.
    I don't normally write reviews, but I have been verbally bragging about these ladies for so long, I wanted to share with other brides in writing how really fabulous they are! Your wedding will be in great hands with the Burkle sisters!!

    We used Burkle Events complete planning package. I think this was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. My mom and I met with Jennifer and she had her act together. Once our meeting was over, she left me with some bridal magazines. Which I found to be very useful for my planning process. We primarily worked with Natalie. I can't say one bad thing about Natalie. Every time we met with her, it was like we were old friends. She had so many ideas and suggestions. Natalie helped us with finding some of our vendors, setting up appointments and she even came to some of the meetings. Anytime I had a question, she had the answer. I was always able get a hold of her. They are very good about answering phone calls and emails very quickly.

    On my wedding day Natalie and Jennifer took care of everything. We just had to sit back and enjoy our wedding day. They took care of the decorating, making sure our vendors knew where to go and what time to arrive. It was awesome to see some of our DIY ideas come to reality. Natalie and Jennifer added little extra touches to our wedding and reception. Things that I would have never thought about doing. They are full of creativity!

    Hiring Natalie and Jennifer to help with the planning of our wedding was well worth the money. I would have not had a stress free wedding if they weren't there. Thank you both for making our wedding day special!

    Burkle Events, I cannot recommend them enough. They are wonderful. We had our wedding on February 26th in Tampa and it was beyond anything I could have hoped. It really was beautiful. I live out of state and when we decided to get married in Tampa I found Jen pretty quickly and I cannot imagine the process without her. Planning a wedding is such a happy but stressful time as I am sure that you are experiencing. They really took away the stress and allowed me to enjoy that time with my now husband.

    Jen and her sister Natalie are so creative as well. I had an idea of what I wanted everything to look like when it was all put together but once I saw all the extra details and special touches I was blown away. Jen was always extremely quick to respond to any emails, texts or phone calls and always keep me on a schedule as far as a timetable of what needed to be done. My sister bought me the most beautiful wedding planner which I don’t think I opened once after hiring Jen as our wedding coordinator.

    Jen introduced us to all of her vendors which I also cannot speak highly enough about. One thing that my husband and I really wanted was really good food at our wedding. Half of the time you go to weddings and the food just isn’t really that good. Our food was amazing. We had a sushi bar and the customized the menu exactly how we wanted it. Our photographers were amazing and our cake was delicious. I could go on and on.

    When it was all said and done we had people telling us it was the best wedding they had ever been to and even though we were a little bias we had to agree with them J

    Trust me when I say she is an investment that is well worth it.

    Derek and I worked closely with Burkle Events every step along our way to the big day. Jennifer and Natalie of Burkle Events are not only exceedingly professional, but super fun to be around. We were immediately put at ease after our first meeting. Our wedding would not have been so special and beautiful without their hard work, great ideas and calm demeanor. Jennifer and Natalie are tremendously talented and dedicated wedding coordinators. Details, details, details!!! If you don’t want to deal with them, then no worries! No is not in Jennifer & Natalie's vocabulary, they can literally do it all and with great style! Exceeding our expectations!!
    We cannot thank them enough for their hard work and dedication in making our Wedding such an amazing event. It's completely the honest truth that so many of our guests told us it was one of the most beautiful weddings they have ever attended. Burkle Events does an outstanding job coordinating all our vendors involved. Not one hiccup!---Turns out that the photo booth gentlemen broke his foot and was an hour late. I and my guests never noticed. Jennifer and Natalie worked their magic and the potential issue was resolved in no time!

    Okay so seriously Jennifer and Natalie over at Burkle Events are AMAZING! Not only are they down to earth and make you feel like you have known them forever but they listen to ALL of your ideas and make it happen!

    They meet you for a first consult to get your ideas and so you are able to see if they are the right fit for you. They really listen to you and want to make sure they get every need and desire down. They also gave me a cute “hi nice to meet you gift” that I loved. I knew that if they were about the little details in their business, they would totally get my little details (that I was obsessed over) in my wedding. So then after we hired them (because they made a great first impression) there is no email I didn’t send that they didn’t reply to. They put you (the bride and groom) first and have none of the ridiculous counts on how many e-mails/phone calls they will allow. They also helped way before the last week of our wedding. We hired them as a day of coordinator but boy-oh-boy did they do way more! They were totally awesome in every way!

    Also as a side note Jennifer ended up coming down with the worst stomach flu ever on the day of my wedding and you would have never known! Natalie kicked it into high gear and she was totally amazing. I never worried for a minute about their ability to pull off my wedding. They really are a wonderful wedding planning company and I would HIGHLY recommend them to any bride that needs help putting together their dream wedding. Not to mention every time we met they left by giving me a friendly hug you know the kind of hug that says, “Don’t you worry about
    a thing we have it covered!” They really are worth every penny.

    We live in Pa and we wanted a wedding on the beach and dinner cruise after the ceromony in Clearwater Beach Florida. I also knew that I wasn't able to do this on my own so I went on Burkle Events website and sent an email pretty much saying how I was desperate for some help in planning my wedding. I received a email back from Jennifer from Burkle Events stating that it would be a pleasure to work with me. You see I was a little nervous being that I never met this person and I was having her plan my wedding. Although that didn't last long for we had numerous phone calls, and emails during the whole planning. Jennifers passion and love of her job is what made me choose her as my wedding planner. So when I arrived in Florida finally to meet her just a few days before my big wedding day my fiance and I met Jennifer. She had a warm smile and such a big heart. I immediately felt a sense of relief feeling that my wedding day is going to be beautiful! So on my wedding day with rain showers in afternoon but that ended before ceremony. My mother n law left her flowers in the hotel a quick call to Jennifer and she made a mothers coursage. My hadicap mother, Jennifer had a beach wheel chair, and a wheeled walker she found a day before the wedding because the boat we were having our dinner didn't have a handicap bathroom. My beach wedding and dinner cruise was decorated so beautifully. She took my ideas and put her passion into her work and made it my dream that came true. So Jennifer from Burkle Events Thank you so much for all the love and time you put into my wedding day to make it unforgettable! You're truely the BEST!

    I hired Burkle Events for their day-of wedding services. I had a couple calls and emails with them prior to the wedding day just as a check in to make sure I was doing okay with my planning, which was very nice and helpful, but other than that their services didn't really start until my rehearsal day and wedding day because I only wanted the day-of package. In every communication, they were great and responsive. They were so very helpful leading the rehearsal itself, and I really felt they were there to help me and make my vision come to life! My family and friends all really liked them too! On the wedding day, they were a life saver. Without them, there was just no way everything could have run as smoothly as it did. I would 100% recommend them and would use them again for any event, if the opportunity arose.

    Jennifer and Natalie were beyond a JOY to work with. They made my wedding day a dream come true. Such sweet ladies to work with and were constently tending to our every need. The wedding day went completely smooth- If there was a problem, Jen and Natalie didn't make it known and fixed it before it was recognized. Love them both!

    Burkle Events was an absolute joy to work with! They were there with me every step of the way. Very organized and personable. Every question was answered and every concern was addressed. They helped me keep my sanity and made me feel comfortable and confident up until, and the day of, the wedding. Wonderful service, highly recommended!

    Jennifer was really easy to deal with. She came out to Tampa to meet with us for our initial consultation, she didn't even ask us to meet half way, she just came all the way out. Other wedding planners really scoffed at that idea. We appreciated that because we are so busy it was hard to get to where they were. She won us over other planners because her personality- shes super nice but shes organized and she can be tough when she needs to be! And she is so reasonably priced for what she offers.
    As far as the week before, she contacted all our vendors and came to our location final reviews. Even when I got a bit snippy with everyone she totally handled it really well.
    On the day of, Jennifer showed up early, set up everything and offered helpful solutions. Everytime I needed something she was right there with it, without me even asking. Her sister Natalie was also there, and I can't be more thankful for her! She followed me around during pictures holding my train, brought me food and wine from our cocktail hour and was there for every single need.
    Most importantly, if there were any problems with any of the vendors, guests, food, wait staff, room, flowers...anything, I had no idea, Jennifer just went in and handled it to make things go off without a hitch and kept me stress free. My only regret is that I didn't hire her for full wedding planning services.

    David and I would not have been able to have our wedding day made anymore special. We had our friends and family all together to celebrate. The atmosphere was perfect. Flowers were beautiful and vibrant. The food was a die for, we had family members looking to have take home bags. We would recommend using Burkle Events for any occasion if wedding, baby shower, birthday parties, you name it - you would not be let down. Thank you. Natalie and David

    Burkle Events saved my wedding!! I thought I didn't need a planner and was getting overwhelmed with all the details. I met Jennifer and knew I found the perfect match for my style. She took over immediately and I was no longer stressed. Rodney was happy to have his fiancee back!! Our wedding was gorgeous and I can't thank Jennifer and her team enough!

    Burkle Events was the "Day of" coordinator for my daughter's wedding at Sacred Heart/Tampa Club. Everything was handled with professionalism and care. I had interviewed 3 companies and Burkle provided the same level of care/attention and service that the highest priced company offered. I will be calling Burkel again for this service. I was able to enjoy this event as mother of the bride and not worry about the details during the last week and the day of the wedding. They were great!

    I had a wonderful experience working with Natalie and Jennifer at Burkle Events. I spent most of the time working directly with Natalie and she was organized, responsive to my calls and emails and kept on top of my other vendors. I used her specifically for day-of services but she went above and beyond to be more than just a day-of coordinator. She was available to me for consult on issues and questions well before the day of the event. She attended a meeting with our catering manager at our ceremony and reception location to ensure everything would run smoothly and that we were all on the same page. The reception room set up was perfect. I was very specific about where I wanted everything placed and they came through! Overall, we had a beautiful wedding day and I didn't have to stress about any of the details, worth every penny!
