Thank You, Events Unleashed!!
From start to finish, Lahoma and the Events Unleashed Team were perfection. Like many brides, I started my wedding planner search via google. Lahoma quickly responded to my inquiry and I immediately felt comfortable with her and her process.
As a picky bride with no vision, I was really nervous about how all of the moving pieces would come together. Lucky for me, Lahoma is an expert. She gave me the structure I needed to make timely decisions within my budget and the space and time I needed to explore my likes and dislikes. She was always available when I needed her and always had great insight when I had a question or wanted her opinion. She has great relationships with fantastic Austin vendors and, once she got a sense of my style, was able to identify which of these vendors would be the best fit. She even got her nails done in my preferred style by the technician that I ultimately chose so I could see it (out of town bride).
Looking back on it, I can’t believe how calm I was our wedding weekend. As a perfectionist and a control freak, this is a true testament to Lahoma and her process. Lahoma and the Events Unleashed team shouldered all of the day of stress and craziness. And wow…I couldn’t believe how everything came together!!! It was beautiful!!!
As with most couples, our wedding weekend was largely a blur. That said, Lahoma ensured that my husband and I shared private moments to breathe and take everything in, including appetizers together alone before our rehearsal dinner and a lengthy departure ride with food and drink. After the wedding, my husband, who wasn’t super involved in wedding planning (shocking…lol), mentioned to me how warm and reassuring Lahoma was when it was time for him to walk down the aisle (THANK YOU, LAHOMA!).
Finally, through the months of planning, I think of Lahoma as a friend. I feel so lucky to have worked with her and the Events Unleashed Team! -

Best Wedding Planner Ever. Period.
Lahoma and her entire time at Events Unleashed are the best you will find in Austin. Not only were we treated fairly and professionally every step of the way, but after our original wedding was canceled during the pandemic (a month before the big day), Lahoma helped us coordinate a new wedding from scratch, plan everything all over again, and even flew to Califonia for the new wedding at no extra charge with only two and a half months to do it all. You simply will not find someone who is more kind, positive, and forward-thinking as Lahoma and her team at Events Unleashed and I would be crazy to recommend anyone else. Please hire her. You will not be disappointed! -

Simply the BEST wedding planner!
Lahoma and her team were literally my rock. I hired Lahoma as my day of coordinator but every month from the day I booked her she reach out, checked in, and gave us recommendations. She is a God fearing woman, calm, sweet, and very respectful. I literally had a stress free wedding because she had given me that assurance. She was literally the best person any bride could as for. She attended meetings and tastings with me and that meant the world to Jayson and I. There was never a moment where I had to be worried throughout my day. Lahoma, we are grateful for you and pray that God will continue to bless you. Please go and book her now!!!! -

Tje A. Sent on 11/02/2021Have a stress free wedding and hire Events Unleashed!
If you are you planning on having a wedding, make sure to get a coordinator who can do it all: Lahoma Dade of Events Unleashed. We were lucky enough to hire her a year in advance for a Sunday wedding in October of 2021.
She did a really great job of actualizing our expectations. We knew we wanted a wedding, we had a venue and we had a day. As for the rest of the details, we were like “HELP!!!”
Lahoma quickly sent over a list of favorite caterers, florists and event rental companies. In no time, we scheduled appointments with all and quickly secured vendors. She helped create a to-do checklist to make sure we ordered tuxes, made sure the wedding party had dresses and suits, flowers were ordered, buses, security, etc.
When the month of the wedding arrived, our bi/triweekly check-ins turned into weekly check-ins. Lahoma always made sure we knew what was missing and helped to fix it. Truly she created an atmosphere of anticipation rather than unwanted stress or confusion.
The day of the wedding was incredibly stress free. We knew we hired professionals but we were still under the impression we needed to arrive early to assist minor things (placing linens on tables, unfolding chairs, etc). She quickly pointed to both groom’s cottages and let us know we needed to focus on relaxing and getting ready because she had it all under control.
Lahoma kept our timeline tight! She made sure the wedding party was where they needed to be when they needed to be there. She kept needy family members focused. She helped the photographer (also amazing) coordinate images.
Her staff, her service and attention to detail truly allowed us to be guests at our own wedding. Everything ran so smoothly down to the smallest details. Work with Events Unleashed knowing that your event will be organized, stress free, and fun! -

Chantal A. Sent on 11/22/2021Events Unleashed = An Absolute Lifesaver!
Where do I even start?! I first reached out to her after finding a few vendors on my own and feeling completely overwhelmed with planning a wedding in a different state. After our initial phone call, I felt 100% confident that Events Unleashed was going to be perfect for us. Lahoma was very organized, and gave me “bite-sized” checklists to help the planning process not seem so daunting. I didn’t come into the process with much of a vision, and Lahoma made a special effort to get to know me and my fiance to help us put together a cohesive, gorgeous wedding.
Lahoma is very well-connected in the Austin area, and she was able to give me several great options to choose from for each vendor. If there were ever any issues with vendors, Lahoma made it her mission to advocate for us and make sure that we got the service we agreed to. Her assistant is also fabulous! He was always timely with scheduling vendor meetings, sending me contracts, and following up with vendors for any questions I had.
Our touch base meetings were a priority for Lahoma, and she was always available when I had a quick question or needed some advice. Our meetings were always productive, but we also had a good time with plenty of laughs! Not only did she become my confidant for all things wedding, but she executed our event flawlessly the day of! All of the bridal party and guests were so impressed with how smoothly the day ran. The best part was that I felt ZERO stress the day of my wedding because I knew I could trust Lahoma and her team to get it done. I was getting compliments for weeks on how great my planner must have been (she was!). Now that the wedding is over, the only regret I have is not contacting Events Unleashed sooner!

Amazing experience
Everything about our wedding was perfect. Lahoma made sure that everything went off with out a hitch. Initially pre- COVID I attempted to tackle the planning process on my own, biggest mistake ever. I later reached out and acquired her services once we pushed our date back, best decision ever! She really took the time to listen to my concerns and vision and put action behind it. Which led to me having the perfect vendors, the food was delicious, my pictures came out stunning, the Dj was amazing. She made even the small details easy and manageable. The best part was her reassurance and positive encouragement through the whole process not to mention that it rained on my wedding day and she called that morning to check in on me. That gesture was not only thoughtful but kind and I would recommend her to anyone seeking out an intimate wedding planning experience, because she felt like family.Read Less -

Outstanding Service and Delivery
Lahoma Dade of Events Unleashed is fabulous. She took care of every detail pre-wedding, met with my daughter weekly and delivered on a exceptional event. My daughter and I were relieved of the planninng stress. With guests from other states, COVID, and last minute changes, Lahoma executed through it all. She even came prepared to put extra touches of deco for the facility. Lahoma was outstanding and I would use her for every event. She made my onky daughter's wedding day a special day to remember forever. -

Melissa N. Sent on 11/23/2020Best Decision!
We found Lahoma through a wedding planning platform, connecting with a few planners before ultimately selecting her to help us plan this special day. This was the best decision we could have made. For context, this was was our second wedding to plan, since we were initially supposed to get married in Hawaii, and we truly could not have done this without her. She was absolutely amazing to work with and helped bring our vision to life in only one months' time. She was very organized and kept us on track in making decisions to keep our timeline, and on top of it, she was so much fun to work with. At our initial meeting, Lahoma asked thoughtful questions and provided suggestions, and by the end, she knew exactly what sort of experience we wanted to create for our guests and what was most important to us. She has a vast network of vendors that she could tap into and was very open and willing to work with vendors from our network or look for additional vendors to supplement. Lahoma conducted screening calls with each of the vendors beforehand so that by the time that we spoke with them, they were a high contender, saving us so much time. Each of the vendors that she connected us with and that we ultimately ended up using were professional and fun to work with. On the day of, Lahoma took care of everything so that we could sit back, relax, and enjoy, including making sure there was enough water / drinks while getting ready, everyone was in the right positions, and loading up for us at the end of the night. Lahoma was on our same wavelength and we trusted her to make game time decisions on our behalf. Our wedding was everything we could have hoped for and more and our guests had such an amazing time. We hope that we have the opportunity to work with her again as a future party planner. We love Lahoma! -

Vanescia Sent on 12/05/2018Amazing Wedding planner!
I absolutely love Lahoma and the rest of her staff at Events Unleashed. I seriously kept telling my now husband how much of a steal I felt we were getting during our wedding planning process. She never hesitated to hop on a quick call with us or meet us at a vendor if needed. She is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Austin venues and vendors. She put us at ease from the moment we first sat down with her and I couldn’t imagine having anyone else help me the night of my wedding. Lahoma is a true gem. Trust me, YOU NEED HER! -
Christy Sent on 12/06/2017Lahoma is AMAZING! She provided phenomenal service throughout all stages of planning my wedding. I was looking for a planner who had industry expertise and who would provide me peace of mind. I received that from Lahoma and so much more! During the beginning phases when there were lots of unknowns, Lahoma helped me hone in my vision. She detailed out all the necessary tasks including those that I hadn't even thought about. She was readily available to answer questions and her creativity helped put the finishing touches on the wedding day. I especially appreciate her being flexible to the constantly changing and unpredictable days of planning a wedding with a new baby!
There are lots of wedding planners to choose from but what sets Lahoma apart is the "how" behind her service. Lahoma's beautiful and vibrant spirit resonates throughout the execution of her planning. How she is able to ease the stressful times, how she is able to put a smile on your face and how she makes you feel taken care of is a unique and special quality that is by far one of the most important services that you will need for one of the biggest days of your life! -

Katie Sent on 05/30/2017Lahoma was actually contracted by the coordinator I hired to run my wedding. I did not meet her before the day of the wedding and I did not pay her directly for her services so I'm not sure how much she charges. I also can't speak to her communication leading up to a wedding. But she did a fabulous job running my wedding! Our DJ had some issues and there was a period with no music and she came up and suggested we go ahead and cut the cake while we were waiting for him to fix the music. I really appreciate her quick thinking. She also checked in frequently to make sure we didn't need anything and everything I asked for was taken care of. I was very impressed with her service!
