    Charlotte McKay Wedding

    I can’t thank Nikki and her team enough for everything they did from start to finish . The minute I met Nikki , it was like we had known each other forever . She saw my vision and helped me find everything I needed to create the look I wanted . If I had a question she answered very quickly , if I was panicked , she knew exactly what to do . On the day of the wedding , I literally did nothing except love every minute of our day . Nikki took care of every single detail . We all fell in love with Nikki , not just our Wedding Planner but now a member of our family ! We love you Nikki !!

    Love Nikki!!!!

    Hiring Nikki was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! She’s was available whenever I needed her and answered any questions I had! I described her my vision for the wedding and she made it come true! She’s always there to help as a wedding planner and as an emotional support!

    Awesome and Fabulous!

    Nikki was crucial to the success of our wedding. She worked superbly with all of our vendors, both before as well as on the day of our wedding. She was extremely responsive and went way, way above and beyond to enact our vision. On the day of, she kept everything on time and according to plan when we weren't looking and when we were, she was calm and smiling and happy. We wish we could get married again, just to have Nikki help us! We highly recommend her.

    Worth every penny!

    We originally hired Nikki & Event Connection to help keep track of all the pieces of our wedding. Best decision we could have made. From suggestions on vendors to finding us a replacement DJ on short notice, she did it all. She was available anytime via text or email and proactively stayed on top of everything. The actual wedding day itself was completely handled by Nikki and her fabulous assistant. We didn't have to do anything but get ready and walk down the aisle! If you're on the fence about a planner, do yourself a favor - hire Nikki!

    Simply the Best!

    Event Connection was amazing! We didn’t even know where to begin to plan this wedding, but from our first meeting, and through the whole process, Nikki helped guide us through with her professionalism and extreme patience! Throughout all our questions, changes and obstacles, Nikki always listened, took the reigns, resolved all issues, eased all our worries and made sure everything was what we wanted. And her recommendation for vendors she worked with previously, was spot-on. They were all wonderful to work with as well. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Nikki and Event Connection for helping my husband and I give our daughter the wedding of her dreams! We never could have done any of it without you! ❤️

    The best decision you'll make...

    I found Nikki through a random Google search and set up a meeting for an interview (she was the first of three I was considering). After one hour with Nikki I canceled the other interviews and knew we had found our coordinator. Same-sex weddings can sometimes be met with bigotry and judgement so I'm fiercely protective of my girls, but Nikki embraced them from the start and has truly become part of our family along the way. She has such a calming presence and helped me down off the ledge numerous times. She helped turn our vision into the most magical day that was filled with love and joy, putting fires out right up to the 11th hour. Add her amazing hubby into the mix for the big event, and you truly have a dream team! There aren't enough stars in the sky to rate the experience you will have with Event Connection. AND DID I MENTION SHE PULLED THIS PERFECT DAY OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A FREAKING NATIONAL PANDEMIC?!

    Best wedding planner ever

    Nikki took my dreams and visions and made them reality. I couldn't have hoped for a better wedding. She made it so easy and took care of everything. I never had a bridezilla moment because she took all burdens away from me. I would highly recommend her to any of my friends and family!

    Daughters wedding went off without a hitch thanks to our amazing planner Nikki

    Nikki is the most amazing person, very professional, in the ball with everything. She five thirty missed a beat and had everything so well planned that the evening went without any hesitation or missed steps. Everything was absolutely fabulous and I could not have been happier with her services, smile and kindness towards everyone and her ability to keep everything together and put together so well! My hats off to you Nikki. Your an amazing lady and we would like to consider you one of the family now!

    Handled it, handled it.

    The superlatives of the English language were outdistanced by performance and execution of Nikki’s duties for our big event. She was so out in front of us on every issue it made our job so worry free. I recall riding to the church in the limo at 4:20 that day - with the bridal party still at the house thinking there is no way the wedding will be on time at 5. When the church bells began to peak at 5 the first bridesmaids were stepping off down the aisle. And that is how the whole day and evening went. As close to perfect as is humanly possible. Great organizational and communication skills.

    Under the sea

    She is beyond amazing. My entire family loves Nikki. Every vendor we worked with had nothing but amazing things to say about her. I am such a control freak but with Nikki I was able to relax. She made my dream wedding/vow renewal come true

    Perfectly planned day!!!

    We could not have asked for a better Wedding planner then Nikki and her husband Pete. Nikki really took the stress off of us by helping coordinate everything leading up to the big day her personality is amazing and she really knows how to keep everyone calm. Everything came together at the wedding and it was everything the bride had dreamed of it to be. We would highly recommend event connections for your special day

    Phenomenal!

    Nikki is and has been more than an event coordinator to us; she is our friend. We interviewed four coordinators and Nikki was the very last. Right off the bat we knew she could see and feel our vision of our special day. Nikki was the only one to visit our home, so she could get a feel for our taste. She explained herself in detail of her responsibilities and how she will be there to the very end. Not only did Nikki do what she said she would do, she went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. She arranged every visit with vendors and was by our side at every one of them. We haven’t mentioned cost; Nikki’s price point was and is better than anyone we interviewed. The quality of professionalism and service surpassed anyone else. We recommend Nikki and trust she will treat you the same way she treated us.

    Wedding Whisperer!!

    Where do you even begin, Nikki went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was as wonderful as we envisioned. She was at every appointment and following up with great communication in between. She has such a fun and bubbly personality that brought light to the entire planning process. The natural talent Nikki has for wedding planning and design was a breath of fresh air, we brought ideas to the table and she somehow kept exactly what we wanted and turned it into something so much more. Her husband came as a second set of hands for our wedding day and they worked great together and he was just as fabulous as she was. We would highly recommend to anyone!!

    I was recently a part of a wedding that the bride had hired Event Connection to design her wedding. She took the brides wished and dreams and created an enchanting evening. The details in designing the color scheme, the centerpieces and the room set up was so amazing. It was a pleasure for the bride as well to have such a reliable planner who made sure nothing went missed, everything was planned and detailed so fabulously. Nikki was so professional and kind and made the day perfect. I would recommend Event Connection for weddings or any event.

    How do you put into words the amount of gratitude I have for your work, passion and love for what you do. We first met 10 months ago. You came to my house, met my fiance and my parents and you asked me my vision. I of course had pictures of what I wanted because that is what I do. But you held onto those pictures and made sure in every conversation with every vendor it was still a part of my vision. When things were a little confusing or passionate between vendors, parents or myself you eased my mind as well as my parents and assured us "we got this." As a girl we dream of the moment we get to marry our prince charming, I had ideas of what I wanted and the look that I wanted and you made sure every bit of it came true. From the beginning to the end and the nerves in between you were there and will forever be a part of our family, parties and celebrations. If you want someone who will take care of everything, a little bit, put on a show but most of all listen to you and focus on you, Nikki and team, they are the one. Don't spend another moment doing it all yourself, she's got it and will get it done.

    Weddings are wonderful......however they are also stressful and frustrating when planning. Our original intentions were to take care of things ourselves (enter additional stress). The logistics of how it was all going to be done and still enjoy my wedding day started to get “muddy”.....this is when Nikki (Event Connection) came into the picture. Best wedding decision ever!!! First, Nikki is amazing, welcoming and one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She made me feel comfortable immediately and I felt at ease. She was able to take all of my millions of ideas and focus it into the vision and the reality that I wanted. Never once did she try to pull the vision in a different direction. She enhanced our ideas and helped handle so many details that we didn’t have to worry about. My wedding was beautiful because of her. It was exactly what I had envisioned. The day of the wedding I didn’t have to worry about anything outside of getting ready because I knew Nikki and her team had it taken care of. The day went smooth and we had an amazing time. We even had a “wedding crasher” that they handled and did not let back into my reception..lol. Thanks to event connection I was able to focus on enjoying my wedding and not all of the other details. I would definitely use Event Connection again for any other event or party. I highly reccomend them to help with your special day and events.
