    Thank you Inez!!

    Inez and her team were AMAZING! Inez was our day- of coordinator and did such a fantastic job working with our wedding planner and making sure all the details were in place leading up to our big day. We felt like we were in great hands - she was super attentive and checked in with us frequently to see if there was anything we needed. We really appreciated how she was so willing to talk to our vendors on our behalf to make sure everything was in place and take the load off of us. On the day of our wedding, everything went so smoothly and exactly as planned! Mary Grace and Jackie from her team were there by our side all day long making sure we had everything we needed - we felt so taken-care of! Especially as a bride who was stressed about the timeline and making sure things went smoothly - they reassured me that they had everything handled and that there was nothing for me to worry about so I could just enjoy the day. My husband and I had the time of our lives! Thank you, Elaborate Parties for making the day such a dream come true!

    Exceptional Wedding Coordination by Elaborate Parties and Inez

    Our wedding day was pure magic, thanks to Inez and her incredible team at Elaborate Parties by Bennett. From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding.

    Inez, our day-of-coordinator, was one of the few reasons why our big day was so smooth. She kept everything on track, ensuring our day flowed seamlessly. Her calm and friendly approach made the entire process stress-free even when problems began to arise.

    What impressed us most was their problem-solving skills. Inez and her team handled unforeseen challenges effortlessly, and we were blissfully unaware of any issues. They even went the extra mile to fix a wardrobe malfunction, saving the day when my dress started to fray at the hem.

    Elaborate Parties by Bennett exceeded our expectations. If you want a coordinator who combines expertise with a personal touch, Inez is your person. Our wedding was perfect, thanks to their dedication and skill and we definitely couldn't have done it without them. Highly recommended for an unforgettable celebration!

    Inez is a national treasure!!!

    Inez is a national treasure, I thought wedding planners/coordinators were only for large scale weddings, but my venue required one and recommended Inez, and I’m so glad they did. I hate planning, I don’t even like weddings, and when I say she went above and beyond as to make sure I had zero stress, she really did. I had a few last minute issues, my wedding cake falling through, she immediately had someone else make us one, and delivered it herself (and it was AMAZING) I didn’t have a florist-and she got me the most florist (the potted geranium is PHENOMENAL) she felt like family before I ever met her. I didn’t have a single stress the day of-she took care of absolutely EVERYTHING! She made me feel amazing and special; and took care of EVERY detail I didn’t think of. I absolutely highly recommend her, she’s priceless!

    Above & beyond!

    Inez was my one calming source during wedding planning. I booked her for 2 weeks before the wedding, but her help started months before! With every call or text leading up to the big day, I knew I would have nothing to worry about. She helped coordinate liquor, transport, timing, and much more. The day of I did not worry about a thing. Her second person, Christina stayed with me all day and ensured everything went smoothly! Inez was on-site at the venue coordinating everything else. This was the best wedding decision I made!

    The Best Experience we could have ever Expected!

    Inez and her team provided the highest level of service one could expect for their wedding. I would recommend any couple seeking a wedding planner to choose Elaborate Parties by Bennett for their event. I was apprehensive at first in the need of a Wedding Planner for our wedding. Now looking back, we could not have done it without Inez. Her attention to detail, care for our needs during the planning process, and ability to execute on the day of the wedding was nothing short of amazing. My wife and I are so happy that we were recommended Inez. She worked well with all of our vendors and helped our guests navigate our wedding . 10/10 experience

    Elaborate Parties by Bennett made our dream wedding come true! They're family now!

    I knew from the first phone call Inez and her team were the right planners for us. From the beginning, Inez made us feel so supported and really took the time to get to know us as a couple to make sure our dream wedding was exactly how we imagined it to be. The day exceeded our expectations but the 3 months leading up couldn't have felt better. Inez created a meticulous timeline for us and handled communication with all of our vendors and we had a lot! Professionalism and expertise are one thing but Inez also has such a wonderful spirit and is so so kind. I never once felt like I was asking for too much or bothering her. She always made sure I knew lines of communication were open. She was so sweet every time we talked and that meant so much to me. Every time I got off a planning call or check-in call with her I felt a little calmer.
    Because of her and her team's expertise and preparedness, our day was absolutely perfect. Meghan and Marilyn were our day of coordinators and handled everything so well. We had a wedding party of 25 at The Art Factory and I couldn't believe how well they kept us all on track and together throughout the whole day. I can go on and on about how happy I am with their services. Elaborate Parties by Bennett made our dream wedding come true! They're family now!

    An amazing experience!

    Having Inez and Mary Grace help us with out wedding was absolutely perfect. They really made everything run smoothly and made our wedding day a complete dream. Additionally, having Inez for the full month took away a lot of anxieties in regards to planning the wedding, any time we had something pop up we simply outsourced it to Inez and she took care of it. She worked with all out vendors and made sure everything was running smoothly. Very grateful to have had her for our big day.

    A Magical Team

    Inez and her girls made our wedding day as stress-free and magical as I could have imagined! Whenever I turned for help, they were there with an answer or solution. I am so, so grateful I decided to hire Elaborate Parties to help run my wedding day. I was smiling ear-to-ear all day and they were a huge part of the reason! I would recommend Inez and her team to anyone who needs that extra set of hands from caring professionals with invaluable years of experience and expertise. You will not regret hiring Elaborate Parties!

    Inez and Mary Grace did a fantastic job at keeping our day running smoothly. They were available before, during, and even after our event for anything we needed. They also made sure we were able to enjoy the food and day together!

    Personal Fairy Godmother!

    My goodness, where to even begin?! I was referred to Inez by my brother’s fiancée and I was initially nervous about hiring anyone for planning services because I was worried about what would happen if our personalities clashed during the planning process. I can honestly say that hiring Inez was the best decision we made when planning our special day. Inez and her team are kind and supportive. She makes you feel like the most important people in the world. She takes the stress off of your shoulders and most importantly makes sure your special day is perfect. My husband and I can’t thank her and her team enough for helping to give us our perfect fairy tale day.

    Best Wedding Planner Ever!

    Working with Inez & her team was one of our best choices we made for our wedding. We got married during the pandemic, so plans were constantly shifting. Despite this, Inez helped make our wedding day the most beautiful day. She was so kind to all of our vendors, family members, and bridal party. She went above and beyond to make us happy - we can't speak highly enough of her and her team. If you are looking for an amazing wedding planner, look no further.

    10/10 would recommend Inez & her team

    Having Inez's help in the month leading up to our wedding, from joining final calls with vendors to creating and editing timelines and checklists, eliminated so much stress and anxiety. But I truly do not know what we would have done without her and her team's help the day of. She made sure our day went off without a hitch despite the fact that we got married during a hurricane. They remembered and took care of every detail so we could relax and enjoy the day. She is kind, professional, and thoughtful. 10/10 would recommend Inez and her team again and again!!

    She's there for you!

    Inez is a very nice person. She recommended us good choices for our wedding and helped us during the process. During my wedding day, she and her assistant Alejandra were attentive and assisted me throughout the day. They asked us how we are doing and kept us on check all the time. You won't regret having her around for your wedding!

    Our Fairy Godmother

    Where do I begin? We changed Inez's name to fairy godmother after only a month of working with her. We hired her for the full package to help with every aspect of our wedding. She made what could have been a very stressful time into a wonderful experience that we enjoyed every step of the way. She found the perfect venue for us and vendors that were above and beyond our expectations. On our wedding day, we had no worries and were free to just enjoy our wedding. Inez and her team made sure all of the big and small details we had worked on together were put in place seamlessly. We would do it all again the same if given the opportunity to go back.

    Hire Inez for a stress free wedding day!!

    Working with Inez with SUCH a pleasure! We hired her and her team as a day of/month of coordinator since I consider myself a pretty good planner, we just really wanted someone who could handle the day so we had nothing to worry or think about other than us the day of. If anything went wrong, we have no idea :) Her and her team were so helpful, sweet, easy to work with and really helped make the day go off without a hitch. You won't regret working with Inez!

    Inez & her team were GREAT to work with

    Inez and her team were wonderful to work with. She was communicative before the big day - both with us and with each one of our vendors - and helped me feel confident that nothing would get dropped. Day of, they anticipated all of our needs and identified and resolved issues before I ever even knew anything was happening.

    Working with Inez & her team was the best gift my husband and I gave ourselves. They fit in with us and our wedding party seamlessly & comfortably, and allowed us to just soak the day in and enjoy ourselves. :) I can't recommend them enough!

    Above and beyond our expectations!

    Inez was our day-of coordinator and was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was on top of all of our wedding details, asked us all of the right questions leading up to the wedding, and gave useful suggestions regarding how to enhance our wedding (though she by no means forced her ideas on us!). Although we had hired her to coordinate the day of our wedding, she started completing tasks for us (such as purchasing/assembling hotel bags) a month before our big day. She also offered to store decorations and bring them to our wedding location, which was very useful to us as we planned our wedding out-of-state. The day of our wedding, she and her two assistants did a phenomenal job making sure everything ran smoothly and taking care of any and all issues that popped up (I'm sure she took care of issues that, to this day, we are blissfully unaware of!). After the reception, she also took care of removing all of our personal decorations, which is perfect because the last thing you want to do after your reception is clean up! Above her duties as wedding coordinator, Inez is very friendly, professional, and has a calming personality. After this experience, we would consider her both a vendor and friend! We will definitely use her in the future to coordinate other life events!

    Great experience with Elaborate Parties

    I am very grateful we had Inez on board to help us with our wedding. She was very professional and made herself available to answer all of our many questions this year when I was balancing applying for residency and planning a wedding. She made every step of the process of coordinating our vendors and the venue much easier. The day of the wedding was planned out perfectly, and her organization made me feel very calm so I could concentrate on being in the moment and spending time with friends and family. Her help the day of the wedding was absolutely essential for me! She was so considerate and made absolutely sure that my husband and I were able to eat. She was so pleasant and warm and it was very clear that she is truly passionate about creating the ideal wedding for her clients. She has many years of experience and it really shows! I can’t recommend her enough to any couple who is looking for someone to help them plan their ideal day.

    My husband and I have known Inez for a few years now, and 2 years ago when we got engaged she told us she wanted to be a part of our wedding, and we said absolutely! When I say she is amazing ,she is amazing!! She contacted me every other day asking me how is everything, do we need anything? She is so sweet, her team is amazing they checked on us throughout the whole night. They kept us to our schedule, she made calls to all of the vendors to make sure they were on time. If something went wrong at my wedding I had know idea. She took care of everything!!!!!! She calmed me down lol when I needed it.

    Beautiful day

    If you are planning a wedding, and are in need of a wedding planner Elaborate Parties by Bennett is the company to use. Inez and her team are spectacular! They doted on my daughter and son in law all day..not to mention myself as the MOB and the FOB. Anything we needed they made it happen. They insured the day and events went on time, from breakfast being delivered through dessert. They made sure the couple was attended to all day...
    Inez is personable, her staff are hard working , pleasant and very professional,and attention to detail was impeccable. Anything you needed, they addressed, even when my zipper broke, Inez brought out her sewing kit.
    Thank you Inez, to you and your wonderful staff for making my daughter's wedding seamless and beautiful!

    Absolutely amazing

    My wife and I found Inez about 3 months before our wedding. I am so happy we made the decision to book her for day of wedding. She took care of the vendors a month before the wedding, made it her job to make our day special. I truly have no words to express how thankful we are to have had such a dedicated and passionate person like Inez. The day of the wedding was so hectic but she did anything and everything possible to handle it and not stress us out. She also had her assistance pick up our order from McDonalds, which everyone loved!! She is definitely my go to if I gave to plan another event.

    Inez was hands down the best part of my wedding (besides marrying my sweetie). We clicked right away and understood everything I wanted. She’s always checking in with you leading up to the big day. On that day- OMG! All my guests kept telling me how amazing she was and I knew it! Spilled a little something on my dress- there was Inez with stain remover! This is my advice- even if your venue comes with a person for you, hire Inez as your day of. She ties up all the loose ends you’ll forget about. Thank you again Inez, I’ll never forget you.

    There really are not enough words to express my great gratitude for the magnificent job that Inez Bennett, at “Elaborate Parties by Bennett” did with the organization for my 80th birthday party last September. Without a doubt, it was the best party I have ever had in my "short life". You have no idea the number of compliments that I have received from all my friends and family that attended to this wonderful celebration. They keep raving what a great time they had, how well the party was organized and commented on the elegance of all the decoration which was truly first class. Inez planned this party in Miami while she lived in New Jersey. Her attention to detail and great professionalism showed throughput the entire event. I highly recommend the services of “Elaborate Parties by Bennett” to anyone without hesitation.

    Inez is an amazing human! She was there for my now husband and I from our very 1st email! We connected and we created a bond/friendship. We worked very closely to make sure every single detail was covered and Inez and her assistant did not let us down. She has so many amazing qualities to make sure you get exactly what you ask for. She paid attention to every detail even when we didn't speak about it. We we're in the best hands possible and we are so thankful to have found Inez. She is seriously an angel. So patient, funny, efficient, pays attention to all details, great listener, full of surprises, and works her butt off to make sure everything is beyond perfect!

    Amazing! Inez made our day so enjoyable and stress free!

    Inez was absolutely the glue to planning our wedding. She answered all my questions and had the best vendor partners. She made the wedding planning stress free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her! I recommended her to a colleague whose son was getting married and she was forever for Inez and her services. Can’t say enough great things about Inez!
