    Seamless, friendly, organized!

    Jenean and I tied the knot this year on April 12th, and we couldn't have done it without the incredible support of Deanna from Ciao Bella Events. From six months out, Deanna was there for us every step of the way, demonstrating her impeccable organization skills and unwavering dedication. Right from our initial conversation, it was evident that working with her would be a joy. Her portal was a breeze to navigate, providing us with everything we needed effortlessly. Deanna's resourcefulness and genuine kindness made the entire process feel like a breeze. She wasn't just our wedding planner; she felt like a cherished friend, and we truly miss collaborating with her! For any couples embarking on the journey of wedding planning, we wholeheartedly recommend Deanna and Ciao Bella Events for a seamless and unforgettable experience. Thank you, Deanna, for making our special day truly magical!

    Ciao Bella Events saved my wedding!

    Deanna and her team at CBE were there for my and my husband every step of the way. When we started this journey planning our dream wedding over a year and a half ago, CBE immediately made us feel taken care of. Deanna was present at every vendor call and knew every question to ask! Her professionalism paired with her kindness and deep understanding of what we were going through made us feel so secure and at ease (even when a hurricane hit during our family photos!) She kept me calm not only during the planning process, but was such a grounding force on the day of. She kept all of us (including the venue and their staff) organized and on schedule. Could not recommend Deanna and CBE ENOUGH!!!

    This is your sign to hire CBE for all of your wedding planning needs!

    I wish I could give 6 stars. My husband and I decided to hire CBE a few months before the wedding and it was the best decision we made. We worked with Deanna 2 months leading up to the wedding and she was absolutely wonderful. She truly cares and it shows in how she runs her business. Deanna helped us stay super organized, attended all of our final vendor appointments and made sure we felt confident that everything was completed before the wedding. On the day of, we worked with Ali and Michelle and they were so helpful, kind, professional and friendly! CBE is the dream team and we are so happy that we had them help us bring our wedding vision to life!

    CBE is the only way to go

    If you’re reading this review wondering if Ciao Bella Events is the right wedding coordinator for you, let me save you the time and tell you YES!!!!!!! Deanna is a dream. Her professionalism can’t be matched. She is timely, organized, prepared, honest, smart and genuine. I can confidently say without Deanna my wedding would not have been what it was. There wasn’t a moment I felt worried as I knew she had everything covered, and was two steps ahead of me. I couldn’t recommend Ciao Bella enough. Save yourself the stress and actuallt enjoy your wedding day by going with De and her team :)

    Amazing!

    Deanna is AMAZING! I seriously do not know how I would have had a successful wedding without her. She is extremely organized, caring, and knows everything there is to know about the wedding industry. She helped us plan every step of the way and was a huge help the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend Deanna at Ciao Bella Events enough!!!

    Ciao Bella Events - best decision I made!

    If you're considering hiring planning or coordination help for your big day – do it! And be sure to hire Ciao Bella Events – honestly, best decision I made! I couldn't be more thankful to Deanna and her team for keeping my wedding day on track. She even troubleshooted some challenges that came our way with a smile and a solution. I'm beyond grateful for all the help CBE gave me leading up to the big day too – if it wasn't for Deanna, the day would have gone very differently. So thank you Deanna and Ciao Bella for giving me the joys of my wedding day!

    The best team

    I was not planning on having a coordinator at my wedding in any capacity but I ended up finding Deanna a few months out and WOW. After our first call I knew her expertise and guidance was exactly what I needed. Deanna was honest, friendly and incredibly professional. Her and her assistant handled our wedding day flawlessly and guided all our vendors as well. Our bridal party was so impressed. I cannot suggest Ciao Bella enough for any future brides. 1000/10

    Deanna is the goat

    Deanna and her assistant were my saving grace throughout the wedding process and the day of my wedding! She was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and gave me some amazing advice. She made sure all the small details were taken care of and allowed me to truly enjoy my wedding stress free. I'm forever thankful for her and CBE!!

    Absolutely Amazing, Deanna is the best!!!

    Deanna and her team at Ciao Bella Events are beyond amazing!!! I was hesitant at first to hire a day of coordinator but now have no clue how my wedding would’ve happened without her. I felt an instant connection on our discovery call and knew Deanna was the right fit. She starts a month out and is there for you whenever you need. I had major issues with my venue after changing management and Deanna was amazing to help assist with all the issues that came up. She was so easy to communicate and always available to answer any questions leading up to the event. Deanna also helped to manage all my different vendors which also had some other hiccups. Lastly; on the day of my wedding, the venue didn’t follow any of our requests, so Deanna and her assistant Alicia made sure they made the room exactly how we discussed. Without Deanna, my wedding wouldn’t have been my vision at all. I’m so happy to have worked with Deanna and appreciate everything she did. She’s extremely talented and will help bring your dream wedding come to life! Don’t wait, reach out now!!!

    Phenomenal!!!

    Deanna was by far the best vendor we hired. It sounds weird to even call her a vendor because she was so much more than that! Deanna gave us so much help before the wedding day even arrived. I knew we made the right choice before even meeting her in person. When she arrived at the venue she was immediately on top of everything from grabbing the rings and marriage certificate from us to making sure the room was being set up. She had the answer for everything and advice for me all throughout the day. We did not have to worry about a single thing. Something was wrong with the photo booth that the DJ provided. Deanna ran to the bridal suite, grabbed my Polaroid cameras and set up her own little photo booth. Our ceremony was on top of a mountain, which the venue provided golf carts for us to get up. Deanna drove me up in her personal vehicle so that my dress did not get dirty. She really cares deeply for her brides and that is something I’ll never forget. When booking with Ciao Bella, you are getting the best possible service and you can enjoy your event knowing they have it covered.

    10/10 Deanna is AMAZING

    We hired CiaoBellaEvents- Deanna, to be our day-of-coordinator. She was so professional and helpful from the start. A month out when her services started, I knew I could go to her for any questions. Her advice was so helpful and I could tell how knowledgeable she is from being in the industry for so long. She made sure she had all of my vendor contacts as well as the contracts in case of any discrepancies. She was coordinating with all of my vendors before the big day. The morning of, her and her assistant, Ali arrived right on time and got to work. They steamed my dress along with all of my bridesmaids dresses (8!). They laid out all the details for the photographer to capture detail shots in another room. They were so on top of everything and made me feel so secure. We still had a good amount of setting up at the venue to do which I was very stressed about but Deanna and Ali went to the venue early to do it all. They did an INCREDIBLE job. I could not have asked for a better company to work with. When we met them there, they coordinated with the photographer, videographer, caterer and DJ to ensure that everything was running smoothly. There was an issue with the cake that my husband knew about but Deanna told him to not tell me until the next day (thank you!!). Deanna was so professional and took charge, even though the pre-ceremony was so hectic and with such a large wedding party, she was able to keep everything running smoothly. We especially felt how important Deanna was when she left after the contracted 8 hours. Our reception entrance was running behind and therefore dinner and the timeline was pushed back at least 20 minutes. So, I wish we could’ve had Deanna and Ali with us the entire day. Overall I could not have been happier with her services and would 100% hire her again. I will recommend her to anyone getting married! Deanna was a dream to work with!

    Amazing experience! Highly recommend

    Deanna and her team at Ciao Bella Events are UNREAL!!! I could not have gotten through my wedding planning and wedding day without them! They truly were so on top of everything, and were with us every step of the way. I got make up on my dress, and boom she had a shout wipe to clean it. I was dying of thirst during our first look pictures, and they literally fed me water. Would highly recommend hiring and would hire CBE again 10 times over!! My in-laws also ended up having her help coordinate for our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner the night before and have nothing but amazing things to say. Lastly, Deanna helped specifically soooo much with our wedding timeline and making sure all of the vendors were on board with what we wanted, which was huge because our photographer was giving us push back on timing and she handled it all perfectly!

    CBE Best NJ Wedding Planner/Coordinator

    Hiring Ciao Bella Events was the best wedding planning decision we made. Deanna and her team are incredibly attentive and professional. With their help, my husband and I could share the planning load with experienced professionals and enjoy our wedding day without managing the event ourselves. Since my husband and I were planning the wedding with minimal input from our families, Ciao Bella offered us guidance and expertise on all things wedding planning. From helping us decide on picking the right décor, the ceremony processional/recessional order, and even allowing us to vent during our chats. Deanna is extremely kind and pleasant to work with. When our time was over, I was sad that I wouldn’t get to chat with her as often because she was just a light in the planning process. The most valuable tasks Deanna led were the day of timeline and executing tasks along with her assistant on site. Handling all the vendors in a discreet, confidential way and ensuring the wedding day was seamless. I 100% recommend working with Ciao Bella and would give SIX STARS if I could.

    Look no further for your wedding planner!

    If you are considering hiring a day of coordinator or wedding planner, DO IT and get Deanna and her team!! I HIGHLY recommend Ciao Bella Events!! My husband and I are both so happy she and her assistant were there to help us with literally everything! From preparing timelines and confirming all of our vendors the month before, to getting ready, to handling all tips and final payments, to keeping us cool in the dreadful heat during pictures, to moving and helping to set up all of our decor, we didn’t have to worry or stress about anything and we fully enjoyed every second of our day. My husband and some family even came up to me and were shocked at how calm I was throughout the entire day, and it’s all because of Deanna! You are in great hands with them and I can’t thank them enough for helping to make our day even more perfect!

    Best coordinators ever!

    Where to begin? I don't know how I would have gotten through the day without Deanna and Alicia. Deanna was fantastic about helping me finalize all the last-minute details in the few weeks leading up to the wedding, working with me to build out a great day-of timeline, coordinating transportation for our guests to the afterparty and back to their hotel, and so much more. The day of, she and Alicia arrived with a treasure trove of emergency kit items (shout-out to the double-sided tape!), were right by my side whenever I needed anything like water or a snack, and ensured everything at the venue was set up exactly how I wanted it. They were also super communicative with all our vendors to make sure everything went smoothly and according to schedule, and were so attentive not only to me but also to my mother and our whole family. I had the best day ever thanks to them. I can't wait to hire them for another event!

    Best decision we made for our wedding

    Deanna and her team was the best decision we made for our wedding. She went above and beyond making sure we had everything in order and facilitated communication with all of our vendors. We were able to enjoy our day knowing that all the little things were taken care of. I highly, highly recommend booking her. Trust me, it will make your life easier.

    Amazing experience. Highly recommend

    Deanna and her sister literally made my wedding day. Not only the month up to the wedding did she stay in contact with me (and contact all my vendors for me) but the day of my wedding they were absolutely amazing. A million little things you wouldn’t think of (example : double sided tape) she had. One of my bridesmaids dresses broke, boom she was there to take care of it. I needed some champagne to calm my nerves, she was next to me handing me a glass. My limo was late, before I could even ask.. she had already called. She made sure everything was exactly the way I wanted it, without me having to do it. She made my day so stress free so I could really just ENJOY. Which is all i wanted. It was truly the best desicion I made for my wedding. So ladies, If you are on the fence about this, DO IT. If it’s something you didn’t think about, think about it because you need it!

    Working with Deanna and CBE for my bridal shower was the best decision I’ve ever made. She helped with selecting vendors, created a beautiful dessert display and made sure everything went perfectly. Definitely recommend!
