    Best Wedding Planner & Designer in the Poconos

    Elika planned our dream wedding with us over the course of a year and a half. She not only planned and coordinated with vendors, but on the day she warmed up trays of food, washed plates, helped with the bar, and cleaned up. Her decorations were on point even though we didn't really know what we wanted, she figured it out and nailed our personality to a T. She made sure we stuck to our budget, but our wedding didn't feel like we had a budget on the day. Every penny was worth it in hiring Elika as our planner, designer, and florist.

    Elika is the WHOLE package!

    I desperately needed someone to come in the months prior to the wedding so I could hand off all the work and not worry about it! Elika did just that and went above and beyond. She's not only extremely organized, but she's kind, compassionate and listens to your needs. She's not at all overbearing and works within your schedule. I got great feedback as well from all the vendors I hired! I highly recommend hiring Elika to help plan your wedding!

    Irene,
    I truly enjoyed planning with you and Kristina. Kristina and Justin's wedding was absolutely beautiful with so many details, including your family traditions and customs. It was so special for me to have been a part of the whole process. There was definitely teamwork and your family was so involved. I loved the closeness and how everyone was there for one another. I enjoyed being your wedding planner and from the whole process, we have developed such a beautiful friendship. Thank you my sweet friend for the beautiful review. I am so happy I get to be part of your family's milestones and journey now.

    Elika is responsive, creative, and professional

    EA Wedding Planner is amazing! I first called Elika about 6 weeks prior to our daughters Wedding. We planned to host the reception under a tent in our yard, but as time grew closer to the June 26th 2021 date. I was getting nervous about how my husband and I were going to execute the day of the Wedding by ourselves. Elika is a true professional. She listened to my concerns and assured me that she would be able to work with my vendors and create a timeline for them to help the day run smoothly. The 2 things we had not done when I first called her was the seating chart and the program for the church. She came thru with flying colors on both! The programs came out beautifully and her the seating chart idea was the most talked about at the wedding. She offered beautiful old white windows, which our daughter wrote all the table numbers and names on. It was the perfect addition to our rustic DIY décor. Elika and her team listened carefully to what our vision was, and executed it with perfection. They decorated all of our tables under the tent and stayed tirelessly until midnight until everything was packed away. Her years of experience made our daughter and her husbands day everything they had dreamed of. I was able to relax and my husband and I enjoyed the day more that we ever could have without her. If you are looking for someone to help you achieve your dream wedding look no further.

    Karen,
    You and your family were such a joy to plan with. After such a horrible year when people were not able to see one another during the pandemic, I am so filled with happiness to have been a part of Meredith and Jay's wedding. I truly enjoyed planning with you and Meredith. The smiles on everyone's faces was a clear message that your hard work and planning was enjoyed by all who attended. I am so happy to have been a small part of it all and honored to have been your planner and designer.

    Amazing!!!! Elika is the best of the best!!!!

    If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further! Elika is the best of the best and from start to finish made our wedding everything we imagined it to be and more! We are a same sex couple and was a little nervous finding someone who would be understanding and accommodating to a non traditional wedding with a lot of unique requests. We hired Elika for our weekend wedding at Trout Lake. When we met with Elika for the first time we knew she was the wedding planner for us. She has a warmth about her, and strong understanding and vision as far as wedding planning goes. She was able to provide us with direction and kept us on track providing us with a timeline of when things needed to be accomplished leading up to our big day. Elika created centerpieces, and other decorations that were accommodating to our style and vision for our decor. She found a reliable and affordable scooter service that my mother was able to use to get around the campground the weekend of our wedding since she has trouble walking. She also brought two reliable people along to help us throughout the entire weekend. They were so attentive to our needs and did everything that we asked of them and more from getting cabins ready, checking in guest, setting up our pizza party that we had Friday night, picking up 20 pizzas for the party, decorating for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We truly found a friend in Elika and my wife and I couldn't have been happier with all the services she provided. She even went out of her way to pick up our marriage license since we didn't live in the area. We highly recommend EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events for anyone looking for a reliable, yet affordable wedding planner. Thank you Elika for all your efforts and hard work! Much love, Cole and Jill.

    Elika planned a picture-perfect wedding for my husband and me.

    As a non-traditional bride who was completely open to the expertise of my wedding planner, my experience was unique. Elika knew my style and personalty; she decorated my ceremony setting and reception more beautifully than I could have imagined. Every look around the venue filled my heart with so much joy. Elika was a key element in creating my picture-perfect wedding!

    EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events's reply:

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review of our services Jaclyn. I loved adding those special touches and details to pull your vision together. I am so glad you enjoyed all the details. I loved being part of your wedding. Wishing you and Mike love and laughter throughout your life as husband and wife.

    Elika was the wedding planner for my wedding last month. With barely any planning done on my own, I contacted her 2 months before my wedding day! She helped me make my wedding very beautiful and successful. The wedding was elegant, exactly how I envisioned it would be. She kept me on the right track with planning and prioritizing. Her team also kept me stress free on my wedding day! Elika was very understanding and patient with me. She also reviewed contracts, communicated and organized all the vendors and made sure the venue was taking care of things on their end. I will use her services again in the future. I would highly recommend her to my sisters (I have 4 of them) when they are getting married and my friends!

    EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events's reply:

    Dear Kimberly and Christian,

    Thank you so much for this wonderful review of our services. We (Dana, Kate and I) truly enjoyed planning with you. I just saw some of the pictures from your wedding and they are so beautiful. Wish I could have been there to see you walk down the aisle. I am so glad my team was able to assist you on the day of your wedding. I couldn't have done it without them. I absolutely love your family...so down to earth and genuine. I was told they were having a great time on the dance floor...that's always a good sign. Can't wait to help your sisters plan their wedding as well. We are very much looking forward to it.

    Big hug for you, Christian and little Daniel,

    Elika

    It took me a long time to finally decide to hire a wedding planner. I was worried about spending the extra money, but about 3 months before the wedding I came to my senses, and I couldn't be happier that I did. Elika was absolutely amazing to work with and I can't recommend her highly enough (also, I'm sure she ended up paying for herself after everything she saved us!)

    We had our wedding on a very remote family property, and not only did Elika stick with us once she saw what she was getting herself into, she went above and beyond in every way. For example, there are no big hotels around our property, so our guests were spread out in rental cabins and little B&Bs all over the area. I was really worried about people getting home safely, with no central location to carpool to our bus company to charter. Without us even asking, Elika offered to rent a van and shuttle people to and from the venue. Her amazing intern, Dana, showed up with the cutest chauffeur's hat (customized to our wedding) and got my friends home safe until about 2am.

    Elika also ended up acting as florist for our wedding. Hiring a professional to come out to our location was cost prohibitive and Elika stepped right up! I showed her a couple photos of the the flowers/aesthetic I liked and she ordered everything, transported it all to the venue, and made all the arrangements. I gave her minimal direction and she was able to accomplish exactly what I wanted!

    I could literally go on and on - from cake deliveries, emergency vodka runs, porta-potty rescues, I didn't have to worry about a thing :) Hire Elika and I guarantee you will not be let down!

    EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events's reply:

    Thank you so much for the wonderful review Gabrielle. Dana and I absolutely loved planning the many unique details with you and Alexander. It's our passion and you kept us on our toes. Your wedding was absolutely stunning. Thank you again!

    I am so happy and thankful that we hired Elika for our day of coordination. She responded VERY quickly to all my emails. She is very professional and she is amazing at what she does. She pulled through big on my big day. The venue had some pretty big mess ups but Elika was right there helping fix them. She is very creative and helped with an amazing seating chart table and design. She helped me find a florist and those flowers turned out beautiful. I can’t rave enough on how amazing Elika is. She is a must hire.

    EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events's reply:

    Dear Robyn and Josh,

    I truly enjoyed working with you both. Thank you so much for this wonderful review on weddingwire.com. I am so happy for both of you and hope we will remain in touch for years to come.

    Hugs and lots of love,
    Elika

    Elika was a fantastic day of coordinator for our complicated event. We hired Elika two months before our wedding. Our event had 60 guests attending a series of events over a weekend: Friday night-cocktail party with band, bonfire, afterparty, Saturday- glassblowing, yoga, skeet shooting, hayride, ceremony and formal reception with live entertainment, afterparty, Sunday brunch.
    Elika was a great help in the weeks leading up to the wedding. We had a weekly conference call to discuss various details of the event. She developed her own very in depth schedule and brought up several details that we had overlooked. When my hair trial went poorly, she helped me to find a different salon to complete the specialized vintage hair style I wanted. She worked closely with the wedding coordinator at the venue to clearly outline each of their responsibilities and make sure that every detail was exactly how we wanted it. She coordinated all the arrival times for the offsite vendors. She shopped for put together, and distributed welcome bags for our guests.
    On the weekend of our event, Elika was on the scene constantly. She helped to clean up the site for the skeet shooting event as the ground were messy and not very presentable- setting up tables, chairs, and decorations so guests would feel more welcome. She coordinated shuttles back and forth between the alternate hotel. She greeted guests and made sure they were signed up for all the events they wanted to attend. She set up and helped light our 120 candle holders, helped vendors get set up, kept us on schedule, and generally kept everything running smoothly. Our event had hundreds of details to keep track of, and Elika was on top of every one. There were absolutely no mishaps, and all of our guests are still talking about how well coordinated and delightful the weekend was. Elika was a huge part in making that happen and you should definitely hire her to help your event run smoothly.

    EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events's reply:

    Dear Victoria,
    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this amazing review of my services. I truly enjoyed panning your fun filled weekend activities surrounding your wedding. You and Paul were such a pleasure to work with. Kate and I had so much fun and your guests were just lovely. We got to know so many of them and didn't want the weekend of fun wedding activities to end. I am so happy for you and Paul and would love for us to remain in touch. We wish you a happy and wonderful life together.

    Thank you for allowing me to be part of your wedding day.

    Warmly,
    Elika

    My husband and I hired Elika when we realized that we made some fundamental mistakes in the wedding planning process. Elika immediately got to work fixing our wedding and creating an event even better than we imagined! She worked around our schedule and was consistently available to talk, text and email. Elika is extremely professional and organized. She has many connections with other quality wedding vendors which we took advantage of. Elika tracked our payments to our vendors and reminded us when payments were due. She made the entire wedding process stress free for my husband and I.

    Elika also worked very hard to make our ceremony joint jewish and catholic. She interviewed several Rabbis and narrowed it down to the top 3 and let us decide. After we found the officiants Elika worked with them to create a custom ceremony program. She put a lot of time and effort into the ceremony and it really showed on our wedding day.

    Beside all of the hard work Elika put into our wedding planning, she did a fantastic job on our wedding day. Elika took care of every detail and resolved any issues that we ran into. She took care of everything so that we could enjoy the day. I can't imagine what my wedding day would have been like without Elika.

    Elika Almeida couldn't have been a more fantastic wedding coordinator for us! My bride Myra and I decided not to use a professional venue setting in order to save money, but all the planning responsibilities were on us which added incredibly to our stress level. Once we hired Elika she began collaborating with us (my bride especially) to make sure we would have the most gorgeous wedding possible.

    I cannot tell you how many times I would hear Myra say, after another detail had been hashed out, "Elika's amazing." She took so much stress off Myra's plate during the whole process. Anytime a vendor needed to be contacted or a chore needed to be executed, she would happily accept anything that was asked of her. She was in Myra's corner when she needed it most in the days leading up to the wedding and we would not have been able to pull this off with such grace without her tireless efforts.

    I cannot recommend her more highly!

    EA Wedding Planner & ELysian Events's reply:

    Thank you Joseph! I was honored to have been a part of the planning process and truly enjoyed helping create your dream wedding. You and Myra such a lovely couple....I can see the love in your eyes when you looked at one another. It was special and so romantic. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness.

    I originally had a different wedding planner. That went horribly wrong!! I called Elika in a panic for guidance and she is fantastic. She is not afraid to pick up the pieces and work with what I've got to deal with. She is very reassuring and very nice.

    Always available! I have communicated with her more in four days than I did in ten months with the first wedding planner!

    Elika helped me make our engagement party a HUGE success while cutting cost. She gave me wonderful ideas and created amazing centerpieces with personalize wood etched names. She also used her creativity to make lanterns out of mason jars, a mojito stand to welcome guests, and a beautiful welcoming sign that was also wood burned! All my guests were amazed and thought it looked fabulous! Without Elika and her creativity we couldn't have done it.

    Excellent through and through. I find it interesting that all of these websites are tailored only to brides. Well, here I am representing the groom side of the equation because I was involved from the very beginning. Hey, it was my wedding too. Elika understood this and welcomed my input from the very beginning. I've worked on a lot of creative teams and that's exactly what this became throughout the wedding planning process. Because Elika has a wealth of experience in this field, she was able to steer us in the right direction and take into account details that we would have never even thought of. She knew exactly when to step in and when to pull back, the entire time keeping our vision of our wedding front and center. We were one of those couples that thought we could do it all and oh boy were we wrong. This was money well spent because when the day of our wedding arrived everyone was calm because we knew all the gears had been aligned like a well-oiled machine. Our guests loved Elika too. She is a one-stop shop, she even did things that I know are outside the scope of many wedding planning services like printing programs on fans (we had an outdoor ceremony) and creating an awesome framed seating chart that incorporated pictures of me and my bride. These touches start to really add up and the overall effect on us and our guests was WOW! Our guests are still talking about our wedding a year later. Elika is warm, personable, dedicated, creative, and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided for us.

    There were so many times before our wedding that I said "I'm so glad we have Elika!". We hired her about a year before our wedding to act as a day of coordinator, but in practice that meant she began working with us closely about 2-3 months prior to our wedding to gather all of the information about our vendors and the schedule for that day. She was well organized and a great communicator. She ensured that all of our vendors knew exactly what to do and where to go and what to bring -- I didn't have to think once about any of those details. Best of all, she insisted on being the designated "point of contact" for our guests as well as our vendors, so we distributed her phone number and contact information to everyone in advance for last minute questions about dress code, directions, anything. I didn't look at my phone ONCE on my wedding day and I knew that everything was taken care of - that is a great feeling.

    I think that Elika also went above and beyond in helping us to work together when our venue was a little flaky about contractual and planning details. She made an extra visit to the venue to meet in person with us and the venue staff to iron out all of the details so that we would feel comfortable. She was extremely professional and made sure that all of the details were secured, and she took notes to make sure everything was documented.

    Thank you so much for the wonderful review of our services Elizabeth. It was such a pleasure working with you and Martin on planning all the details leading up to your wedding day.

    I can't say enough wonderful things about Elika, she was exceptional from the start and went above and beyond in planning our wedding and accommodated us in every way possible! She guided Chase and I through the wedding planning process and created a wedding and reception that reflected us personally with a sense of style. During the planning stage, she simplified the many options available by using her extensive knowledge of vendors in the area, and years of experience to create a fun and relaxed environment for us and our guests. The weekend of, she managed the many details, logistics, timelines, and coordination of vendors, so that we were able to truly enjoy our special day without having to worry about anything! Throughout the process, she provided guidance on merging our priorities with our budget and assisted us in making the final decisions. Elika created a day that exceeded our expectations. Her personalized service and attention to detail made our vision of a simple, elegant, romantic affair a reality. Guests are still gushing about what a fantastic time they had. We've even been told our wedding was the most fun, most romantic, most incredible wedding our guests have ever been to- and that's all due to a beautiful job done by Elika! Thank you for making our dream day come true!

    Elika was integral to planning my wedding. I really wanted my Mom and I to take the lead and have our vision come to life. Elika's process enabled that to happen and asked the right questions when she saw potential hiccups or things that we hadn't thought about in our plans.

    She also took on more responsibility when we were getting overwhelmed in making our programs, place cards and other things you think you'll have time for but never do. One of the main things I really appreciated was Elika's warm demeanor. I'm really sensitive and hate conflict. I felt comfortable telling her we wanted a different design for our programs, something she was helping us with. She really wanted us to be happy and I felt that. She came back with not just one option, but multiple choices enabling we'd be happy.

    Her experience was invaluable in making our entire weekend one of the greatest times of my life. I knew she had thought of everything and I was able to be the calmest bride in the world and enjoy the day and the entire process of getting married. I'll cherish those memories and her forever.

    We brought Elika on about two months before our wedding and her help proved invaluable. She was able to find secondary vendors for us and set up weekly phone meetings to keep us on track. She was on email and text with us nearly every day and helped to coordinate nearly every element. She also provided checklists and detailed itineraries for us. Our wedding was a weekend-long affair with events on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and Elika worked tirelessly on our behalf the whole week. The day of the wedding, I was able to enjoy getting ready and spending time with my bridesmaids knowing that she had everything under control. There were a few things that ended up differently than I expected, but she handled the last-minute decisions with grace that left my husband and I with so many great memories of our wedding.

    She was very easy to get along with and always on top of everything, making sure things got done. She helped my wedding run smoothly and I was grateful to have her!
