    Amazing Wedding Planner!!

    We loved working with Elaine for our wedding planning process! She has very reasonably priced wedding packages and is flexible about adding additional meetings. Elaine took all of the details that I had dreamed up and made them a reality. Even though we only hired her for the "one-month" planning she was in contact way before that in order to nail down details. On the day of Elaine was there early and with an assistant to ensure everything would be set up and run smoothly. Our day was perfect and it is all because of Elaine and her hard work! We cannot recommend Elaine enough!!

    Elaine was wonderful to work with. My biggest challenge was "not knowing what I didn't know". She was available for guidance when asked. She has a great sense of knowing when to get involved and when to let us take the lead. She was always very knowledgeable and professional. I would absolutely recommend her to someone in need of a wedding planner.

    Thank- you for the sweet words. It was so nice being a part of such a special day and seeing all the little details come together beautifully.

    I don't think I would have survived getting married without this amazing lady! She was with me every step of the way, letting me do my own thing when I wanted to but right there when I needed help. Her suggestions and recommendations were on target; she kept me in budget and on schedule. She is great to work with, very flexible, organized, and quite creative as well. And she knows the best vendors in town! We had a wonderful wedding and Elaine gets a lion share of the credit!

    You are so welcome! I had so much fun planning your wedding and helping to combine the elements that made your day what you envisioned. It was beautiful.

    Elaine was great help on my daughter's wedding day. I was able to enjoy the wedding and did not have to worry about managing the day's schedule or the other vendors performing their jobs. She was professional and worked well with all the vendors I had hired. Elaine's husband was available that day as well and he was helpful too.

    Elaine was available anytime I wanted to talk and she also met with me several days prior to the wedding so we could review the timeline. Great Job!!!

    Elaine was so friendly, organized, professional, and fun! Our wedding was small however Elaine took every detail into account, as if it were a presidential ball.. Haha. Seriously though Elaine worked with our budget and was such a necessary and beneficial component of our wedding; before, during and after. We couldn't have done it without her. Thanks Elaine!

    We hired Elaine for help with our wedding rehearsal and day of wedding and I have no clue what we would have done without her!! There were some things that went wrong the day of and she was able to step in calmly (keeping me calm was probably her biggest job! Ha) and fix some decoration issues and a music issue. She was so professional and caring and only wanted to make it the most amazing day possible. If you are looking for a wedding planner I promise you that you cannot go wrong by hiring Elaine!

    My dad says that hiring Elaine was the best decision we made throughout the wedding planning process. Working with Elaine was so easy. She was quick to respond and willing to help with anything and everything when it comes to the wedding. Elaine is not a wedding planner who makes the wedding about her either, she makes it about the bride and groom. She made sure that my husband and I had everything we needed and that our day was perfect for us. We opted for the month of service and I completely recommend this. Elaine is great at communicating with all of the vendors and perfectly arranged and coordinated our day. If you don't think a wedding planner is in the budget- make room! She saved my family and I from so many stressors and thought of things that we never would have.

    Elaine was amazing! Every time I needed anything on my wedding day she was there. She even went to the grocery store four time to get items we had forgotten and then had to load stuff up in her suburban and bring it to my house. She was a lifesaver and I don't know how we would have done it without her. Thanks Elaine!

    Events by Elaine is the PERFECT place to go to budget minded brides who still want the best quality. She did everything I needed her to do and more. My husband said "Elaine was great, my beer was never empty!" Haha! She listened to my concerns and wants, and did exactly what I asked to make my wedding day perfect. It was so nice not to have to worry about ANYTHING, and just enjoy and have fun at my wedding and reception.

    Elaine was awesome! I called her to come in at the 11th hour for day of coordinating; I was so busy that I didn't have time to give the poor woman very many details but she did great just "winging" it! Took care of all emergencies including a missing boutennir for my husband's father - she made one from a rose in the bridesmaid bouquet! Wished I would have used her from the beginning of planning!

    Elaine was fabulous. She created our wedding schedule and coordinated our many vendors through various changes. She took care of all the details and handled any issues that arose. She made all of us feel calm and relaxed. She created all the signs for our wedding which was a huge benefit; plus she has some of the best prices in town. We could never have handled this event by ourselves. Thanks again!

    My daughter, the bride, and I would highly recommend Elaine for event planning. She was invaluable in suggesting vendors she had worked with,was easy to communicate the bride's ideas to, and made the day before and day of the wedding run smoothly. She is very hands on, and took care of little details that no one else would have remembered. Lastly, compared to others in the area, she is ridiculously inexpensive!! Working with her was truly a pleasure.

    My husband and I had a very unique situation when we approached Elaine for help. We were planning a wedding from Germany to be held in the state we met but that neither of us had family living in. From day one, she was very accommodating- understanding our situation and skyping with us at odd times to help with the time difference. Elaine helped us get in contact with vendors, provided excellent recommendations, and helped with the overall plan for the big day. She was our go-to for questions and advice for all things wedding. On the big day, Elaine made sure that we did not have to worry about the little touches getting done. She made sure all our vendors were on task and that everything was set up exactly as we had discussed.

    Beyond her skills as a coordinator, her personality just cant be beat. She's extremely personable and always had a way of making us feel calm and confident that our day would be a success. Planning a wedding from a different country can be very stressful and challenging and at times it seemed impossible but with Elaine in our corner our dream wedding truly became a reality. We are forever grateful.

    If you are looking for a wedding coordinator, I would highly recommend Elaine. You will not be disappointed.

    I would suggest that you speak with other couples that have experience with this vendor to make sure that it is a good match for experience desired, personality, style, communication, level of detail and expectations. She is sweet and helpful and will do anything you ask of her, but was challenged on working through issues as they arose, consistent communication and attention to detail. It is one of the first decisions that you make and if you hire her for the full planner package it is someone you will work with extensively throughout the process. Elaine is likely best suited for weekend of, small, unique weddings and that was not the type of wedding we planned.
