    Absolutely incredible!

    Elite events went ABOVE AND BEYOND planning our wedding. They were professional yet relatable and flexible. We planned a wedding in 6 months and it turned out better than we ever could have dreamed. From planning to execution each step went without a hitch (that we were aware of!!) Elite events took the stress out of wedding planning and made it a fun enjoyable experience.

    Amazing Wedding Planner!

    Hannah and the Elite Events team went above and beyond to make our New Year's Eve wedding the most amazing night of our lives! Every detail was executed to perfection and our vision truly came to life in a way that I did not even know was possible. They made the wedding planning process easy and enjoyable and I would love to have the opportunity to work together again in the future!

    Thank you so much Chanel! We loved working with you to bring your wedding vision to life and are so glad we were able to help navigate through all the crazy hurdles Covid-19 threw at you guys! It was a dream seeing you two walk down the aisle and finally say "I do!" We miss our chats with you already! :)

    Miracle worker, and during a pandemic, too!

    Hannah at Elite Events made our dream wedding come true! With a year-long delay and a sudden slam of seemingly everyone in Seattle getting married at once in second half of '21 due to the pandemic, Hannah and her team were able to navigate serious obstacles thrown their way while keeping us calm and updated. Her relationships with local vendors were strong and she knew some tradecraft tips, like "hire a better band for cheaper from Portland" and ties to the best flower vendors. She had fantastic attention to detail with plenty of patience for our particular asks.

    Elite Events's reply:

    Thank you for all the sweet words, Kirill! We loved working with you and Evie and can't wait to see what amazing adventures you have in the future! :)

    A fabulous experience with a fabulous planner!

    We had a spectacular experience working with Elite Events for our "first night" wedding events, which included a Rehearsal Dinner for 50 followed by a Welcome Party for over 200 guests. Hannah and her team were true professionals -- creative, thorough, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Every detail was beautifully thought out and expertly coordinated. Hannah took our vision and seamlessly added thoughtful elements that improved and elaborated it, making the night truly special. From the delicious food, stunning florals, customized leather menus, colorful acrylic signage and fun extras including monogrammed throw pillows, a Bourbon bar and fabulous entertainment, both events were more than we had hoped for. Held on a rooftop overlooking Pike's Market in downtown Seattle, Hannah even arranged for the Great Wheel to customize it's lights to coordinate with our color schematic. It was fabulous! From start to finish, it was a wonderful experience working with Elite Events!

    Thank you so much for your kind review, Sarah! It was a pleasure working with you and we are so hopeful our paths cross again in the future!

    Wedding planner of your dreams

    I absolutely would recommend Elite Events to any bride. Elite Events truly embraces your vision while also enhancing it. Not only are they extremely creative and resourceful, they are also extremely organized and efficient. The truth is, the process of creating your perfect day can be so overwhelming, confusing, and time consuming, but Elite Events makes your experience effortless, enjoyable, and extremely understandable. Every step of the process is extremely transparent so you always know what you should be doing to prepare, what they are doing to prepare, how much everything costs, and the quantity and quality of things you'll be receiving on your big day. They truly cover all your bases. Not to mention, that each member of their team is so sweet, understanding, and flexible, while maintaining strong worth ethics, and never letting you feel taken advantage of by the bridal industry.
    I truly had the picture perfect day on my wedding, and I attribute a lot of that to Elite Events. I would highly recommend them to any bride, but especially those who want to souly focus on the joys of their wedding and their engagement. I honestly miss working with them, but can't wait to see all the beautiful weddings they continue to bring to life!

    Elite Events's reply:

    Thank you so much Elyse! You were an absolute dream to work with and we are so honored to be part of such a special day in your lives! Lots of love to you and your families! :)

    Outstanding, would recommend without hesitation

    Outstanding vision, planning and execution. My wedding was not an easy one to plan-- it was only a 5 month window of time, and it involved complex elements due to my vision of having ceilings dripping with vertical florals and lights, as well as a petal drop during our first dance. Needless to say, Hannah and Cindy made it happen, and flawlessly. From their meticulous eye to detail to their ear and eye for design, it was all 5 star. Not only that, they managed to do this all with smiles and humor. Thanks to Elite Events for bringing the most breathtaking visions to life!

    Stephanie Meier

    Hannah and Cindy helped put on an amazing bridal shower for me this past summer. Since my wedding was postponed until next year, we held a small wedding shower with our closest family and friends in the Seattle area. Hannah and Cindy used all the Covid measures to keep me, my fiancé, and our small group safe. They used gloves when handling glassware, utensils, and plates, which I was grateful for. They are seriously an amazing team and I couldn’t have asked for a better event team. They went above and beyond. Cindy came up with the theme of our event and it was a hit! She thought it would be sentimental and cute if we had a “Something borrowed, something blue, something old” theme. Guests were notified to bring something that fit the theme and present it to us as gifts. A lot of laughs, tears, and sharing of embarrassing moments throughout the night. Thank you, Hannah and Cindy, for making my bridal shower amazing despite the global pandemic!

    The BEST wedding planning team!

    The support and guidance Hannah and Cindy at Elite Events have given us during COVID has made the process of postponing and rescheduling our wedding to 2021 as stress-free as it could be! Their attention to detail, experience in managing vendors, positive and kind attitude throughout planning and rescheduling has made it a wonderful experience. Hannah is always ahead of the game and provides professional but warm to do lists, action items and things to start considering. She went above and beyond to reach out to vendors the second there was a possibility of postponing our wedding and came up with creative solutions to every hurdle that we encountered. We can't recommend Hannah and Cindy at Elite Events enough!

    The Best of the Best!

    If you want the best of the best of the best, you have to hire Elite Events! This is the second wedding my family has used Elite Events for, and we could not recommend Hannah and her team enough. Not only is Hannah a lovely person, but working with her was so seamless and fun! Planning our wedding was smooth and stress-free from start to finish. Not only is Hannah excellent, but so are her vendors and contacts she recommends to work with as well. Everyone we hired throughout the process was exceptional and truly helped make our day one for ages. My husband and I both had a great time throughout the entire experience and would recommend her time and time again. Our guests were blown away by this wedding, and it was all thanks to this fantastic team! To Hannah and your team, thank you so much to each of you for all you did to make our dream day come alive! It was better than we could have ever imagined and we couldn’t have done it without you!

    Thank you so much Angela! You are the sweetest and we feel so lucky to have been part of one of the most important days of your lives! Cheers to all the amazing memories ahead with you and your new hubby! :)

    Exceed every expectation! The best wedding planning duo there is.

    Hannah and Cindy with Elite Events are an absolute dream team. With Hannah's incredible attention to detail, professionalism, kindness and passion for what she does and Cindy's eye for design, impeccable taste and warmth - there isn't a better wedding planning duo out there. From the brainstorming phase to the day of, they made our entire planning process fun, stress free and exciting. Not only did the wedding day exceed every expectation, the entire day ran seamlessly and allowed for us and our families to enjoy the day worry-free. I am eternally thankful for everything they did to make our wedding dreams come true. THANK YOU, Hannah and Cindy!! We love you both!

    Elite Events is Amazing!

    Hannah's expertise was evident throughout the entire wedding planning process. She knows the ins and outs of the industry and we always felt like we were in the best possible hands. We could not have been more pleased with our experience and there was no way we could have done it without her!

    Extraordinary design & planning with an incredible team

    I feel so incredibly lucky that Hannah from Elite Events was my wedding planner. She exceeded all of our expectations - from how excited she was about our special day, to her extraordinary design eye, to her organizational skills. Our timeline was impeccable and the most detailed I have seen from weddings I have been in. My husband and I still talk about how she was our favorite to work with across all our vendors and always put a smile to our faces because she got to know us on a personal level and brought that personal touch to our wedding. And the design day of was something I will never forget - it was stunning, classic, and she truly listened to my vision from day 1. Our wedding was a dream that I will never forget and it's because Elite Events brought everything we ever wanted to life. They will always have a special place in my heart.

    Elite Events - Hannah Mitchell = AWESOME!

    Hannah Mitchell of Elite Events is AWESOME! Don't let her age fool you, she is a seasoned professional.
    Hannah helped us plan our daughters wedding. At first I thought we would just need a "little help" - I quickly realized we needed more of what Hannah offered. She had insight and ideas that we hadn't thought of and she knows so many vendors in the Seattle area to help execute your vision. She is a great organizer and very detail oriented. There wasn't anything that she didn't address with us; she kept us, and our vendors, together and organized throughout the entire process.
    Hannah and her team worked tirelessly the day of the event, from set-up to tear down, they kept all vendors on task and made sure even the smallest details were taken care of. She is a perfectionist and she runs your event like she would her own.
    If you are planning a wedding or party I would suggest you use Hannah at Elite Events, you will not be disappointed. She is a WEDDING PLANNER EXTRAORDINAIRE! She is friendly, up beat, kind, detailed, easy to work with and I guarantee you will love her!
    I would highly recommend Hannah to anyone putting on a wedding or party - as soon as I can think of another event to tackle, I will hire her again!

    I wish I could fully explain just how wonderful Hannah and Elite Events are!!! I live in Southern California and was planning my wedding to be in Seattle, so I definitely needed someone who would help facilitate the planning while I was at a distance. My now husband and I met with Hannah about two years before we were planning to get married, and her energy, sense of humor, and professionalism impressed us so much. We had met with a few other wedding planners, but once we met her, we knew our search was over! She made sure to listen to the vision I had for the wedding, and she brought so many incredible ideas to the table. She never forced me into any ideas or vendors, it was a very no pressure process, and she always kept my tastes in mind. I always felt like I had support throughout the entire wedding process, and she helped me navigate the waters of wedding planning (from someone who knew nothing about wedding planning, this kind of resource was priceless...and now I feel pretty savvy about it lol). On my wedding day, I was FLOORED with how everything turned out!!! It was what I wanted and more!!! My husband and I kept hearing from our family and friends that they were impressed with how beautiful the layout was and how well organized the day's events were; we kept hearing that it was one of the best weddings (if not the best wedding) they've been to :) If you have any doubt as to whether or not you should go with Elite Events, I'm here to tell you that you will not be sorry and you will be so happy that you chose them!!! Hannah and Cindy are the kindest and most creative people, and they will always keep in mind your vision and your budget! You will be in great hands with them, and they will work their hardest to help you put together a day you will never forget :)

    We worked with Hannah to plan our August 2017 wedding prior to her starting Elite Events and she is simply the best - she helped us plan our wedding while my Husband and I were living in different cities - every visit to Seattle was well planned with vendor meetings lined up, she conferenced in to phone interviews with vendors when I was still out of town and she worked with my Mom to do many things behind the scenes when I was too busy at work to focus on wedding planning. Hannah also did some pep-talking and hand holding! She had a great design vision and listened to what I wanted - she worked well with me to make it all happen even telling me which things to cut without impacting the vision when the budget got a little too generous. She suggested vendors that matched our aesthetic and really took the research burden off of us. I would hire Hannah again for an event without a second thought - our whole family just loves her!

    Most definitely I would recommend Hannah!

    From Day 1, I was impressed with her knowledge of the wedding industry. It is evident she has a passion for what she does. Hannah listens and works with you to make sure you are comfortable at every stage of the wedding planning journey. She worked with my husband and I for 10 months to pull off the most magical wedding day I could have imagined. Not a single item was left to chance - every T was crossed and every I was dotted. If you want the best - for flexibility, professionalism, responsiveness, value and quality of service - I recommend Hannah!

    To this day our wedding day was THE best day of my life and it’s thanks to Hannah Mitchell. I hired Hannah as my wedding planner and day-of coordinator. From day 1 she understood our needs and did everything necessary to maintain our budget whilst creating an unforgettable event. Hannah is professional, detail-oriented, passionate, incredibly friendly and approachable and always responds to any questions/queries in a timely manner.

    The day of our wedding was magical, the décor was stunning and the day was seamless; it was a clear reflection of Hannah’s planning, work ethic and respected relationships with the vendors.

    I would strongly recommend Hannah to anyone looking to put on an event. I will hire Hannah again in the future, she is the absolute best!

    I hired Hannah to plan my wedding and I can say with confidence that you do not need to look any further if you are looking for a wedding planner. Hannah's professionalism, communication, and passion made her an absolute pleasure to work with. We knew we were in good hands as Hannah guided us through the entire process from beginning-to-end and ensured we were never behind during any phase of the process. Hannah's ability to recognize and implement our unique vision exceeded all expectations that we could have had.

    We're happy to know exactly who to go to for any future event planning needs!

    A fairytale wedding

    We worked with Hannah prior to her move to Seattle for my wedding in May 30, 2015.
    She was absolutely the sweetest wedding planner ever! She was very attentive, approachable and knowledgeable about planning a big wedding. She is very responsive and went above and beyond to make me feel great about my wedding day. She also had many connections and was able to advocate and negotiate on my behalf which was helpful.
    She was truly a pleasure to work with. I definitely would recommend her!
