    Amazing Wedding day

    De and her team really know how to make a couple feel special and at ease. Wedding planning can be stressful but De is there every step of the way to make things easier. From the moment we booked her to our wedding day we knew without a doubt we were taken of! The special moments seem a little more special when you have someone like De behind the scenes making it happen. She loves bringing your ideas to life and has so much knowledge to make it work beyond your dreams! We’d get married again just so we could have De make it magical all over again!

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Katy and Cody!
    Thank you so much! I LOVED working with you two! The day came together perfectly and you're right, it was so special. If we could recreate that magic again, I'd be down for another wedding with you too! But in the meantime, if you decide to have a milestone celebration, you know who to call!
    Wishing you all my best!

    De is all about the DEtails!

    If you are looking for a Cincinnati Wedding Planner then you have found the right one! De Evans is extremely detailed and will not allow corners to be cut.

    We recommend

    Deanna was awesome. She worked with us for month of planning. We passed all of our selected vendors off to her, and she coordinated every single detail from there. The day of our wedding was seamless; all that we had to do was enjoy our big day.

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Gavin and Taylor,
    It was my pleasure to help you with your wedding! Being in Nashville was a treat. So glad the weather cleared up for us and made both your ceremony and reception beautiful. Both you and your families will live in my heart.

    Amazing!

    All I can say is that Deanna was amazing! She was so helpful at keeping me organized and staying on track! There are so many details to remember and Deanna helped with that every step of the way, at every check in. On the day of the wedding she did so much work and created my perfect vision and was just so helpful and amazing! She was so easy to talk ideas through with and I always knew I was in good hands! I can’t say enough about her!

    It was my honor to be a part of you and Sprio's big day. I had so much fun getting to know your family and seeing all of the Greek traditions unfold! Congratulations to you both. Wishing you all the best!

    Amazing Vendor

    I’m way late on reviewing Deanna. Words are hard to describe how Deanna helped us with our wedding. She went above and beyond answered all of our questions and we really felt like we we were the only Wedding that she was handling at the time. Someone asked me recently what was one thing I regret not having or doing for my wedding and I honestly couldn’t think of anything because Deana took care of it all. I highly recommend Deana to any and all brides couples whoever for their event needs.

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Sicari!
    Thank you so much for your review! It was a pleasure working with you and Tanner. The day turned out to be amazing and your guest & family seemed to really enjoy themselves! Thank you again. I wish you two all the best!!!

    Deanna is the best!

    So glad we decided to book with De Evans Events. After postponing, the stress of wedding planning was overwhelming but as soon as we started working with Deanna a weight was lifted. She was there for every questions or idea we had. I also don't know what we would have done the day of if we didn't have her. She set up the entire reception so we did not have to worry about a thing. De also created the timelines seamlessly and communicated that to the vendors. All of this helped us really just enjoy our day! Would highly recommend De Evans Events to any couple!

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Angelique
    You and Gavin were amazing to work with. I'm so glad I was able to alleviate some of the stress of planning after a postponement. There was so much love around you! The kids and their special dance made my night! Congratulations!! I wish you two all the happiness in the world.

    Wedding coordinator

    Deanna was warm from the first phone discussion. She asked me what I wanted for my vow renewal, and she has delivered results. She found my wedding dress, and that was incredibly difficult. She listens as well as make recommendations. She's held our hands the entire time. I can't say enough great things about her!

    Amazing 50th Birthday Party Celebration

    If you want to have an event that your friends and family will remember for years to come you must book with De Evans Events.
    Deanna is definitely “The G.O.A.T”! (Greatest of all time). For my 50th birthday I envisioned having a 70’s party but I couldn’t see how it could be similar to a house party like my mom used to have when I was a child. To my surprise Deanna transformed a hotel party room into a 70’s HOUSE PARTY decorating sections of the room with the perfect ambiance for that 70’s feel.
    Imagine my surprise upon my arrival I saw the guest were all dressed in 70’s attire dancing as the DJ was playing the sound of Carl Carlton, She’s a Bad Mama Jama. I was overcome with happiness and joy to see my friends and loved ones and the sparking 70’s globe that spun around the room, which I really wanted.
    From the colorful living room decor, to the photo section with the high back peacock chairs and lava lamps, I appreciated every small detail.
    Thank you Deanna for your punctuality, professional and most importantly for making my dream party come true. It’s was a great evening! I look forward to booking with you again for my next event.

    It is always a pleasure working with you to plan your amazing celebrations! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of them.

    Fabulous and Amazing!

    I’ve worked with Deanna on a several weddings and photo shoots. I’m a wedding florist and it’s always a pleasure when she is beside your side. She always has everything covered before you even think about it. You will not be disappointed! She makes it seamless and stress free!

    Amazing to work with

    Deanna was absolutely amazing! When we started to plan our wedding in 2019 with Deanna we had no idea what lay ahead, including postponing our wedding due to COVID. If it wasn’t for Deanna I’m not sure how we would have survived wedding planning. She was there every step along the way and provided great ideas and input.  She coordinated everything with our vendors which was a huge help and created a flawless timeline which made the day run smoothly. Her and her team were amazing day of getting everything setup. It was almost overwhelming walking into the venue for the first time because everything was exactly how I imagined it. I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Deanna and De Evans Events!!!

    Deanna is awesome!

    Deanna was so much more than our “day of” wedding assistant. She met with both my daughter (the bride) and me several times to learn exactly what our specific needs were, then customized our perfect day. She thought of things, and I’m sure prevented glitches, without even bothering me with the details. Deanna is someone I’d love to hang out with! I highly recommend Day of Deanna.

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Michelle! I'm really going to miss our meetings. It was so much fun working with you and Chloe on what turned out to be the celebration of a lifetime! I'm so happy I could help.

    Best Cincinnati Wedding Planner

    I was one of those lucky Spring 2020 brides. When Covid hit the fan, we went ahead and got married in April 2020 without any family and a total attendance of 8... including us. We pushed the party out to April 2021 and went about our newlywed quarantine. That was the first postponement.
    By December 2020, I realized I would have to postpone again. I confirmed a date for April 2022 with the venue and went through the rounds of calls, schedules, contract updates, etc. Now I'm an organized person but after postponing twice, having to switch some vendors, moving out of state, ordering a THIRD round of save the dates... let's just say I was not having fun anymore. I realized I needed to find a Cincinnati Wedding Planner to help me pull it off

    Luckily, The Factory Events had De Evans on their recommended vendor list. The staff raved about her and I loved her from our first conversation. She is professional, friendly, and impeccably stylish. I honestly wish I would have let her design the whole damn thing but I was 2 years deep so oh well.
    De scraped together my notes and documents, listened to our visions and input, made excellent suggestions when I got lost and with a little bit of magic- we finally had us a party. De dealt with coordinating vendors in the weeks leading up to the event. She kept everyone informed of the schedule and then kept everyone on it. She reorganized the ceremony at the last minute when we had VIP guests cancel (due to COVID) and managed a new layout on the day of when rain was imminent. She handled emotional family and rowdy groomsmen with poise and grace. She even peeled all the stickers off our favors because that's the level of detail she achieves. I know she did more but I didn't see because I was too busy dancing the night away while she handled business.

    If you are in need of a wedding planner in the Cincinnati area, I cannot recommend Deanna Evans enough. Even if you think you have it under control, hire her anyway so you can actually enjoy yourself.

    TLDR: Hire De. She is an angel.

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Rachael and Tom
    What a ride! Your Cincy wedding was so much fun and I thank you for allowing me to be a part of it. The Factory was great to work with and I enjoyed meeting your families and friends.
    Thank you for your kind words!!
    Take care, hope we see each other again soon!

    Seamless!!!

    Deanna was extremely organized and professional throughout the entire process. Both of us wanted to be involved in the planning process; Deanna was flexible and mindful in her approach. Deanna took a lot of stress off of our plate. Our day of ceremony & reception felt seamless and ran so smooth. Deanna was able to take our vision and execute it without any issue. We feel that Deanna's services far exceeded our investment.

    Deanna made our wedding absolutely perfect. We didn’t have to lift a finger- as promised. Deanna took care of everything and we couldn’t be more grateful. She was able to take our vision and bring it to life even better than we could have imaged. I wouldn’t recommend planning your wedding without her!

    The Best Wedding Day Investment

    We hired Deanna as our Day of Coordinator and she truly went above and beyond our expectations of what a day of planner was. She got to know my husband and I so that she could make decisions as we would on our big day. She kept us on schedule without making me feel stressed about time at all which is a big deal as I am always late to everything thing. She also did an awesome organizing our vendors. We got lots of great feedback from other vendors about how much they appreciated Deanna reaching out and making sure they had all the wedding day details together. I know my day would not have went as well as it did if it were not for Deanna. Lastly she was lots of fun to work with.

    We had an amazing experience working with Deanna!

    We couldn't be happier that we hired Deanna to be our day-of wedding manager!! My mom, husband, and I wanted to do a lot of the planning ourselves, but we needed someone to help put it all together. Deanna was without question the right person for the job. She went above and beyond creating many detailed timelines, contacting all our vendors, getting everyone on the same page, etc. which alleviated MUCH stress from us. She took the time to meet with us more than once, within a month or so of our wedding, as it was very important to her that she knew exactly the vision we had for our day so she could help make it happen. She is also such a friendly person and super easy to work with. I will miss meeting with her! On the actual day-of, Deanna was on top of it & did an incredible job helping to make the night run smoothly. Because of her, we were able to truly enjoy the best day of our lives. We will HIGHLY recommend Deanna to anyone looking for a wedding manager.

    De Evans Events's reply:

    Abby- thank you! Your wedding was nothing short of AMAZING. The vendor dream team transformed the space beautifully! I will never look at Music Hall the same. To top it off and you, Landen and your family were a joy to work with. Congratulations, I wish you all the best! 😍

    Deanna is so professional and so helpful in planning your big day!

    Rob and I got married on 6/29/19. We could not have pulled it off without the help of Deanna and Estephanie! I booked Deanna for month/day of coordination. She was prompt, organized, and professional. She knew all the questions to ask and was an amazing resource for my final details meeting with my vendors! She shared my timeline with vendors, communicated with vendors of timing of arrival, and was the point person for all set up questions! I am so thankful for all of her time and hard work! It was a perfect, smooth day!!! Could NOT have done it without her!! Book her now!

    So Thoughtful and Organized

    Deanna was so helpful in making sure everything went off without a hitch. She worked with this type-A bride and took everything off my plate for the wedding weekend so I didn't have to worry about a thing. We really saw her shine in our final details meetings with the photographer and caterer, asking questions we wouldn't know or think to ask, during the rehearsal when she really took charge and led us through the entrance, and the day-of, when she coordinated with all of our vendors to make sure our day was perfect. We're so grateful for all that Deanna did for our special day.

    Deanna is everything!

    We had to move our wedding up by six months, due to a military family member's deployment. We were panicking...and were advised by a friend to hire a wedding planner. We began our search and found a highly rated and reviewed planner named Deanna. Oh my goodness! She is so wonderful and takes all of your wedding planning stress away. From day one she had a plan and broke it down into easy doable steps. Being on a budget, we were worried about spending too much on a planner...but she was so affordable and worth it. We felt prepared and ready for our special day, and everything went according to plan. We felt that we were on the same page with her throughout the entire planning process. We had a bridal party that was sixteen people strong, and she kept everyone on the same page and organized. She was authoritative in the kindest way, and left you feeling good about yourself after every meet up or phone call. For every bride looking for that perfect wedding planner, get you some Deanna in your life right now! She will not disappoint.

    Deanna, we love you so much. Thank you for being amazing. We appreciate all of your hard work!

    Short and to the point, Deanna was OUTSTANDING! The level of professional and insightful service that she and her staff provided for ours son's wedding was truly top notch and so professional that my wife and I are completely beyond thankful that we hired this wonderful person to make this very important day for our family an overwhelming success. As we met with her and explained to her the style and feeling that our son and his bride to be were wanting (they are in the military and based 12 hours away), Deanna took all the Bride & Grooms requests very seriously. She was able to accommodate each request they had and make suggestions, based on what they wanted to not only keep them within their budget, but to give them options that they had not considered. Deanna ran the rehearsal with the entire wedding party and the minister, and even gave each member a cheat sheet of the times that they needed to be where and for what on the day of the wedding. When the day of the wedding arrived, Deanna and her staff were onsite. They were AWSOME..... Armed with spread sheets and iPads they completely transformed the wedding venue into exactly what the Bride & Groom were wanting and then some. As each of the vendor arrived (Florist, Caterer, DJ, Photographer, Bartenders, Wait staff, etc.) she personally met them at the door and made sure that they knew actually what they were to do, even though she has already contacted they weeks before to confirm that each of them were set with time, date, and expectations. Needless to say the wedding and the reception went flawlessly. Deanna NAILED IT.... We got rave reviews from all of our guest on how smoothly and well planed the entire event was. As a parent of the couple, I have to say we could have never accomplished this without the services of Deanna. I would give Day of Deanna a rating of 1000 if I could
