    Exceeding Expectations: A Tribute to Houston's Premier Wedding Planner

    As a wedding photographer who recently collaborated with one of Houston's top wedding planners, I can't help but applaud her remarkable workmanship. Her attention to detail was nothing short of impressive, ensuring that every facet of the wedding was meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. From coordinating vendors to orchestrating the timeline seamlessly, she demonstrated an unparalleled level of professionalism.

    What truly set her apart was her unwavering dedication to exceeding her clients' expectations. She anticipated their needs before they even arose, allowing the bride and groom to fully immerse themselves in their special day without a single worry. Witnessing her commitment to ensuring their happiness was truly inspiring, and it was evident that she poured her heart and soul into every aspect of her work.

    Thanks to her exceptional efforts, the bride and groom were able to cherish every moment of their wedding day without the stress of managing details or vendors. Collaborating with such a talented wedding planner was an absolute pleasure, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple seeking a truly unforgettable wedding experience. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine care for her clients make her an invaluable asset to the wedding industry.

    A Blessing

    What I could say about Fervent designs can be turned into a book, but I will try to keep this short. Rich was a dream from start to finish, from blowing me away at the bridal show all the way to personally dropping off my wedding license at my doorstep with OFFICAL COPIES.

    I have never been a planning type of lady, especially not for 100 people or more. I was blessed to find Rich; she made everything so easy, she had vendors all over, and most were lovely. I had one odd experience and she handled it. (And it was the one vender I picked outside of her; guess I learned my lesson.) But it was handled repeatedly by her until it was done.

    I was overwhelmed a lot and she talked me through things, it helped keep me grounded when I felt like I was drowning in wedding stuff. She MC’d My rehearsal dinner, she hosted my wedding beautifully?

    I was nervous when my bridal assistant was not going to be her, but Bianca was a gift from God. That woman knows how to have fun, keep things calm all while keeping things moving. Immaculate professionalism from Bianca, Rich, and the rest of her lovely staff.

    One of my dear friends of 10 years said, “I never knew my girl deserved and needed to have a wedding planner till I saw yours.” I had so many people refer to her by name, even my guests who liked to complain had nothing but compliments.

    I do not plan to get married twice, but I will see her and her 11/10 staff when my baby shower happens.

    Thank you for a magical night.

    TL;DR - Enjoy your party and hire Fervent Designs to worry about the small things for you!

    My husband and I met the Fervent Designs team at a wedding convention and we were initially hesitant to sign up for a consultation but after talking with Richandra (Rich) we decided, “why not do it, it’s free”. The initial call went well - Rich asked about us as a couple and how we envisioned our big day going from the venue to the color schemes, etc. We told her we were planning an out of town wedding and were possibly looking for help and ended the call saying to give us some time to think about hiring her. My husband and I talked it over and decided to hire them so the next day we emailed her and signed the contract for partial planning.
    The first two months of our contract Rich made sure that we had our major vendors booked and gave us recommendations when needed. She also gave us an initial budget breakdown of roughly how much everything would cost which helped us see where we could make budget cuts (we also saved money by buying/hiring some services from Fervent Designs). Over the course of the next year she would send out emails checking in on us as well as sending us reminders of when things need to be done. PAY ATTENTION TO THE REMINDERS! It made our wedding day so much easier as we essentially had everything booked, planned, and paid for two weeks before the wedding.
    The day of our wedding I was given a bridal assistant Alyssa who was amazing and made sure I was hydrated and cooled off in the summer Texas sun. The Fervent team also did an amazing job trying to keep the day on track as much as it could. Rich made sure that my husband and I ate and had drinks during the reception, which is something most couples forget to do. She also made sure that we got to take photos with family and friends, do our plushie toss (what we did in place of a bouquet / garter toss), and our sparkler send off; all of which we had discussed with her as being important aspects of our wedding. At the end of the night, the Fervent team packed up all of our belongings and food into our vehicle so all we had to do was get in and drive back to our hotel.
    Keep in mind that no wedding or event will be perfect and there will always be hiccups. That said, the Fervent team helped to make the day as wonderful as possible and we are ever so happy we hired them to slay our day.

    Excellence Beyond Measure

    It's rare that I give a perfect score to an organization, but this rating is fitting. I've been to four events, two of which Richandra and Fervent Designs was the organizer; the two that FD did not organize contained many flaws that Richandra would have easily prevented.

    Absolutely Amazing

    We had an amazing experience with Rich and her entire team at Fervent Designs for our January 2023 wedding at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. I met Rich at the Houston Bridal Expo in January of 2022 and immediately knew I was in good hands. She had experience working with our unique venue and was prepared to help from our first consultation (before we even hired her)! Her meticulous attention to detail was evident in every step of the process, from invitations and vendor recommendations to multiple venue walkthroughs and personalized catering tastings, resulting in a tailor-made bespoke wedding. She came prepared to every meeting and kept us on track, ensuring every detail was considered and accounted for.
    We had a near disaster when our cake vendor canceled two weeks before the date and Rich skillfully managed to solve the crisis before I even had time to stress! She tactfully handled our large and boisterous family, ensuring everyone was where they needed to be when they needed to be there so we could focus on the joy of our wedding day and the life we are building together. I am so grateful for her ensuring our priorities were the focus - a private first meal, lively celebration, and so many little details that made our wedding feel so unique and special!
    Rich's professionalism and problem-solving abilities ensured a seamless and memorable celebration. We will certainly be using Fervent Designs for all of our life milestone celebrations. We highly recommend!

    No need to look further!

    Best Event planner ever! I interviewed several event planners and this was the only one that was truly professional all the way through and reasonably priced. They paid attention to everything we wanted and executed to a T. I had absolutely no complaints in every step of the way. Our 40th was a blast with a few surprises she happen to pull off very well. Don't look any further. You found the right one!

    Amazing Service

    My husband and I had a destination wedding in Cancun, MX and it was absolutely the best day of our life. The weeks leading up to and the day of my wedding Rich and her team made sure my husband and I was happy and got everything I wanted out of our day. She was so organized, very tentative and made every aspect of the day a breeze. I would recommend this planner to everyone if you want someone that's on top of their game, very passionate, and knowledgeable! I can’t thank Rich enough for how special our day was!

    Wonderful!

    With a little less than 3 months of preparation, it was such a big blessing to have Rich and her team plan our wedding. We're amazed of how organized she is, and how she handles everything. From the tiniest details, to the big ones, she delivered. She made sure we have the best vendors, and our wedding turned out to be wonderful! We would definitely recommend her to everyone we know who's getting married. Can't imagine how we're gonna pull off that wedding without her!

    Amazing Wedding coordinated by Fervent Designs

    Fervent Designs and Rich were able to give me the wedding of my dreams. Very detail oriented and Rich was there for me during the whole planning process. We had weekly meeting to go over everything to make sure the day would be perfect. Fervent Designs was able to assist me with decorating, a DJ and help with anything else i needed.

    Your Last Stop!

    Fervent Designs was my first and last choice! When my hubby and I met with Richandra, we knew she was the event planner for our special day by her willingness to get to know us as a couple.
    During the planning process she was passionate, organize, timely, creative, and had our best interest at heart.
    My husband and I schedules are so busy, we couldn't imagine planning a wedding without an event planner. Fervent Designs was a life saver. Our wedding was amazing and the staff was so attentive to our every need!
    Don't hesitate to hire this God sent company....
    Thanks again Fervent Design!

    World Class

    Rich and her team were such a delight to work with! She was so understanding and helpful even though we had to postpone our wedding multiple times due to my husband's deployment since he is military and surprise baby after his deployment. She always made us feel that our family (us and baby) comes first and everything else will fall into place no matter what challenges came our way. From cake vendors to disappearing with our money to price changes from our wedding venue, she had our back through everything and I couldn't think of a better suited team for us than Fervent Designs. She kept our budget and our vision in mind through it all. Truly World Class.. Hire them, you can't go wrong!

    Fervent Designs = Dream Team

    Richandra was my Fairy Planner Mother when it came to the wedding. She made sure my wedding day was flawless and stress free! I was nervous wondering if things were getting done or how could i help but I was told to stay put and relax...she did it all. Her team made sure everything was in its place and ready for a gorgeous wedding. We ran out of mixers and juices so one of her dream team went to the store and got us some more. They are the problem solvers. They are Heaven sent! We had no worries that day and everything ran smooth like clockwork. She's the best! Get her...you will not be disappointed at all!!

    Great team to work with!

    The fervent designs team helped execute my perfect wedding day. I gave them my vision and they did all of the hard work of researching, finding the best prices, and ensuring I didn't have to stress about wedding planning. I would highly recommend them whether you just want a little help or you want them to plan every last detail. This was especially great the day of the wedding when all I had to do was get ready and enjoy myself until I walked down the aisle!

    Best Choice!

    This was the best choice we made for celebrating our Church Wedding/10-year Anniversary Vow Renewal! Richandra (and team) totally catered and customized her event planning skills to fit our unique event, held in our church and then our very own backyard. You will not regret hiring this awesome company! Everything from start to finish was handled very professionally and very thoughtfully. The “day of” matters were executed with care and precision. All of this allowed my husband and I, our family, and our friends, to truly be present and enjoy our night fully and stress free. Our guests continued to rave about the Fervent team for days and weeks after our wedding!

    Phenomenal Coordinator!!

    Richandra with Fervent Designs did a phenomenal job as my wedding coordinator. She kept me on a track with my to-do list. Though it drove me crazy at times, the to-do list was definitely needed as there were a lot of things that I hadn't even thought of. Richandra's expertise in the wedding industry is top-notch, which helped me a great deal. She is amazing and very resourceful. The team (Richandra, Bianca and Ashlynn) made my wedding day go very smoothly, and I know my wedding party would say the same. I would highly recommend Fervent Designs for your wedding planning and coordination as they are a wealth of knowledge regarding everything "Wedding!"
