Heather S. Sent on 12/22/2022Couldn't ask for a better planner
If you had asked me to describe what I was looking for in a wedding planner, Finni went above and beyond all expectations. She had an intimate understanding of the wedding industry and stakeholders within Seattle and gave us a comprehensive list of recommendations for all our needs. Each of the vendors we selected were brilliant and already had a great working relationship with Finni. She was with us every step of the way and was an absolute godsend the day of the wedding. She was willing to work with us on strange hours while my spouse and I were out of the country for the entire year for the wedding! Her responsiveness to any and all inquiries we would have throughout the planning phase was incredible, and her ability to incorporate multiple faiths and cultures was extremely helpful.
I'll give one anecdote that highlights how great she was. During our reception, it was becoming clear to Finni that the time we had with our photographer would expire in the middle of the dancing phase of the reception. Finni took proactive steps and spoke with my mother to ask for her permission to pay the photographer for an extra hour. When my mother said yes, she went ahead and paid the photographer up front with her own money for an extra hour to ensure he would capture the dancing. She did all of this without stressing me out and letting me and my spouse enjoy the night in blissful ignorance.
This is who you get when you hire Finni. She is someone who provides comprehensive support, both before, during, and after the big day. Out of all the money we spent on the wedding, Finni was easily the most valuable service we spent on. Thank you again Finni. -

Do yourself a favor and book Finn for your wedding!
Working with Finn was the best decision we made for our wedding! Not only is she super knowledgeable, but her presence is extremely calming and reassuring. I’m an anxious person and every meeting Finn would put my mind at ease. She was always super quick to respond to my questions leading up to the wedding and then day of she was an absolute angel! She kept us informed of things going on but handled everything seamlessly. I was worried (as an anxious person) that I wouldn’t be able to relax on my wedding day but Finn took care of EVERYTHING. I literally didn’t have to worry about a single thing. She made sure I was having a blast and enjoying our day. I just wish we could get married again so we could keep working with her! Thank you, Finn! -

A joy to work with!
The Sound Originals Photo + Video team worked alongside Finn Events for Chelsea + Drew's gorgeous day! This wedding was so incredibly special because of the love and joy of the couple, but also the love and joy of the Finn Events team. They were professional, kind, and extremely talented. We look forward to our next event with them! -

Chelsea M. Sent on 08/31/2023Seattles best wedding planner
Finni is simply amazing. She helped me plan an all outdoor wedding in Seattle and it was perfect! She was professional but also down to earth since our first meeting. I would say I wa a chill bride until the day before my wedding when it went from 85 and sunny to rain all day. 5 days before I made the decision to switch the tent for standing umbrellas- I was panicking. She handle it with such grace, allowed me to freak out a bit but calmed me down and promised me she would handle it - and that’s exactly what she did. She also did my florals and they were absolutely perfect!!! (And budget friendly). I’m not lying when I say I had the best wedding day I could ask for. Hire her you will not be disappointed! She also loves
Dogs and were obsessed with ours who was center of attention at our wedding. 10/10! -

Hiring Finn Events was the best decision we made for our wedding!
Finni was the day-of coordinator for our wedding at Captain Whidbey Inn in April 2023. She went above and beyond to acheive our vision and ensured our rehearsal, welcome dinner, and entire wedding day were executed flawlessly.
We wholeheartedly recommend her.
We specifically appreciated Finni’s clear communication before and during the wedding weekend, her attention to detail in preparing our venue, and her ability to collaborate with us, the venue, and our vendors during the wedding weekend.
Communication
-We met with Finni throughout the planning process to discuss our vision and decisions
-She was always responsive to our questions via email—responding within 1-2 days
-Her responses were always thoughtful and detailed, with recommended actions
-She also communicated on our behalf with key vendors—to ensure aligned expectations
-During the wedding weekend, Finni communicated her plan, priorities and location—and was available to us to discuss day-of decisions
Attention to Detail
-Finni’s plan for the weekend was oriented toward the smallest but critical details, including mapping indoor and outdoor electrical outlets on the venue property to be used by vendors
-She was responsible for decorating the dining room for our welcome dinner and wedding night reception— she did an incredible job bringing together florals and other decor with place settings, name cards and menus to create a transformative experience for our guests
-She brought us each our specialty drink as we were about to walk into the reception, so we didn’t walk in empty handed. She even remembered seeing the bride’s sequin jacket earlier in her cabin, and reminded her that she might want to put in on before the photographer left (and then ran and got it for her)
-She assembled all of our cards, slices of cake, leftovers, and polaroid photos in our cabin for us to discover and enjoy at the end of the night
Collaboration
-Finni was so easy and fun to work with—and she made a positive impression on our guests, venue staff, and vendors
-Finni’s services included a site visit to our venue—during which she guided us to ask the right questions
-Finni worked with our officiant to plan and run an effective rehearsal
There is a lot you can’t control when you plan a wedding. And there is a lot to do. But if you hire Finni, those things won’t matter—because she will help you, and she will remember to do the things, and you will have the most amazing wedding. -

Dafne R. Sent on 12/21/2022Do yourself a favor: hire Finni!
With an initial destination wedding plan cancelled, my husband and I were scrambling to put a wedding together in WA. Finding Finni is the best thing that could've happened to us. She helped organize us and find a venue, narrow down vendors, deal with family drama, and everything in-between. She took the time to really listen to what was important to us and turned it into reality. Aside from being a miracle worker, she's also just one of the sweetest people you'll meet which was the cherry on top. We can't recommend her enough and it would be a miss not to work with her. -

Finn events is finncredible!
I cannot begin to recommend Finn Events more. Finn is an experienced event planner with an endless set of ideas, a passion for excellence, and she puts her clients excitement and goals first. She is exceedingly professional while being fun, and has earned the much-deserved respect of her many vendors across the industry.
I hired Finn Events to execute our annual fundraising gala last year and she delivered a stunning event that exceeded expectations, drew a crowd or attendees that was 60% higher than the year prior, raised more funds than anticipated, and set our organization up for what we expect will be an even more fabulous event this year.
Finn is detail-oriented and balances all those critical details with the big picture experience that only years of event execution and a creative mind can pull off.
I doubt I'll ever use a different event planner for any event going forward. If you choose Finn for your event--whether a wedding, a corporate event, or a gala, you will have a wonderful steward of your dream and have people complimenting you for years to come. -

Shayna P. Sent on 01/03/2023Finni is amazing!
Hiring Finni was the best planning decision we made! We live in New York and the wedding was in Tacoma so we really needed a wedding planner who is knowledgeable, skilled and detail-oriented. With Finni, we got all of the above and more!
We hired Finni for full service wedding planning for our Sangeet, wedding ceremony and reception (a 2 day event), and from day one she showed a real passion for our vision and frequently went above & beyond to ensure our vision could be realized. She was a great combination of creative and practical - allowing us to try different things while also staying on top of timelines & budgets. Our wedding was an Indian/American fusion wedding, and Finni was very culturally sensitive - asking questions, helping us envision the perfect fusion wedding. She was also a joy to work with & actually made the many months of planning pretty fun.
The entire wedding weekend was an absolute dream with Finni handling many of the coordination responsibilities. We’re really lucky to have found Finni and you would be too! -
