Claire Sent on 09/27/2022Amazing Planning from Start to Finish!
Rachael was a godsend for our wedding. We used her full service planning and she assisted us through our nearly two year engagement with all the logistics and details of our wedding day. Not having been to many weddings, it was invaluable to have someone with so much experience in the industry. She offered so much great advice and was very responsive - I'd often receive very detailed responses sent in the wee hours of evening to random questions I asked her. On the wedding day, everything went right from start to finish (or at least from our perspective it did) and I attribute so much of that to Rachael and her assistant's help - as well as the rest of the vendor team she helped us pick. She made us feel like ours was the only wedding she was working on and truly made the day so special. I've already recommended her to multiple friends. She could be charging double her price in my opinion. -

Jason Sent on 05/29/2023Superb and caring service, every step of the way
From our first meeting to our goodbyes at our reception, Rachael was a joy to work with. We went into planning knowing very little, so Rachael provided us with a ton of helpful resources, such as planning timelines, vendor recommendations and vendor contact information. All this and her incredible willingness to chat made for a smooth planning process! The month leading up to the wedding, she was even more responsive, with several planning meetings set up. She handled vendor contracts, answered questions and, most importantly, worked to put our day off schedule together! On the wedding day, she handled all of our concerns and made sure we didn’t feel rushed or behind schedule. She worked seamlessly with our Maitre D, ensuring that everything ran smoothly in the background. She constantly checked up on us and coordinated with all of our vendors on our behalf. Looking back at our wedding day, it truly could not have been done without her. Rachael made our wedding feel special from day one, and lives up to her company name of Glass Slipper Weddings. I offer my sincere recommendation to any couple wanting a magical day!Glass Slipper Weddings and Events's reply:
Thank you so much, Jason! You two are absolutely adorable, and I loved every moment of your gorgeous wedding day. I'm so happy you had a perfect celebration. Love, laughter, and happily ever after to you both! -

Lesley Sent on 03/13/2023Best. Planner. Ever!
Rachael is a godsend to those lost in the midst of wedding planning. Her expertise and experience in guiding couples made her invaluable through the entire process. Highly personable and responsive, she knows where to offer suggestions (whether it was adding an extra flair or NOT cluttering the venue with extra decor) and also how to calm our nerves. We opted to work with her after we lost our progress on wedding planning due to the pandemic. Over the course of about a year, she helped our wedding planning process go so smoothly, it felt almost too easy at times! Her presence was crucial on the big day, from tracking down stray party members to transporting items throughout the venue. Her sense of humor and industry expertise made the entire process fun rather than stressful. I cannot recommend Rachael enough! THANK YOU RACHAEL!!! -

Thaddeus Sent on 03/10/2023A true professional
Rachael was a real blessing for our wedding. Going into this process without a concrete vision, she helped us map out how to tackle planning the wedding all the way to its fruition. she served as fantastic resource for finding exceptional vendors to work with as well as how to be efficient with our budget to get the most value. She also served as a point of contact between our various vendors in ensuring everything was coordinated seamlessly. Most importantly, Rachel kept us focused on the key tasks and served as a guide when we started going off the rails! Our wedding went off seamlessly, the entire process was almost entirely stress free, and it wouldn't have been possible without her!Glass Slipper Weddings and Events's reply:
Thank you so much, Thaddeus! You and Lesley are a fantastic couple, and I am so happy I could work with you on your fairy-tale wedding day. The energy and love that the two of you share is incredible. Love, laughter, and happily ever after! -

Jenn Sent on 09/29/2022Every Detail Was Taken Care Of
Rachael was an excellent partner and coordinator for my wedding. It was a true pleasure to work with her and on the day of the wedding absolutely everything was taken care of and went smoothly. She was available any time I needed her and gave me lots of good advice and recommendations of vendors. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!Glass Slipper Weddings and Events's reply:
Thank you so much, Jenn! It was an honor to be part of your special day - everything from the hilltop ceremony to the joyful farmside reception was so gorgeous and full of joy. I wish you and your family love, laughter, and happily ever after! -
![Hailey]()
Hailey Sent on 08/01/2022We love Glass Slipper!
We are so grateful that we made the decision to hire Rachael Citron from Glass Slipper as our Month Of/Day Of Wedding Coordinator! We can say without a doubt that both our planning process and wedding day would not have been as seamless and wonderful if not for Rachael and her associate Shannon. Rachael not only referred us to countless amazing vendors, but she also guided us when it came to reviewing contracts and making big decisions that would impact our day. When we were stuck in a creative rut or needed ideas to make our wedding unique, she would jump on a call with us to discuss different options. Rachael and Shannon met with us and the venue coordinator the month before the wedding and created a master day of timeline that was literally our lifeline on the wedding day. She reached out to all our vendors the week of in order to ensure everyone was aware of where they needed to be and when so that nothing fell through the cracks. Her coordination is truly what helped us feel confident and secure in knowing our big day would be everything we ever dreamed of and go off without a hitch. Shannon came to our Rehearsal Dinner and conducted our ceremony rehearsal in a restaurant with lots of people and not much room, and made it work without any issues! Shannon was also there with us on the wedding day and she was absolutely incredible. We could not have asked for anything more. She kept us all organized, on track, and made sure everyone was where they needed to be at all times. She kept the mood upbeat and made sure my husband and I were always happy and involved in every decision (this was really important to us with all of the forecast uncertainty we were facing). She worked so well with the venue to ensure everything was set up correctly and in the proper place. She must have carried my bag and items up and down from my room to the ballroom about 500 times and never once complained. She is a total rockstar. We highly recommend Glass Slipper and are so grateful we had the opportunity to work with them!
Glass Slipper Weddings and Events's reply:
Thank you so much, Hailey! You were both an absolute pleasure to work with, and we wish you all the best for a long and joyful marriage. Shannon and I were so happy to be a part of your big day. Love, laughter, and happily ever after! -
![Christina]()
Christina Sent on 09/12/2021Detail-Oriented, Professional, Amazing!
I wish I were having another wedding so I could hire Rachael again. I'm very organized and tried coordinating my first micro wedding on my own on 9/19/2020 - and after that - I realized I needed to hire someone for our wedding reception on 9/4/2021. I reached out to Rachael and as soon as we spoke, I knew she was perfect. She is extremely detail-orientated and very organized. We also had a lot of vendors and she was able to seamlessly create the schedule (as well as timelines for the vendors and my bridal party so everyone knew exactly where they needed to be at what time). She was so helpful throughout the process as well, including when we were picking out vendors (like the shuttle). I didn't have to worry about anything on our wedding day because I knew that Rachael had everything under control. If you don't think you need a coordinator, take it from a fellow bride that (1) you do and (2) you should hire Rachael as your coordinator. I will definitely recommend Rachael to my family and friends. -
![Mona]()
Mona Sent on 06/12/2021The best wedding planner out there!
I cannot say enough good things about Rachael! When planning a wedding, especially out of state, it's tough to know the nuances you should consider and it's tough to find good vendors that are local. Rachael was with us every step of the way sending us amazing recommendations, helping us review contracts with vendors, and truly being our advocate throughout the process. She also helped us navigate the unprecedented COVID cancellations/postponements. However, our wedding day was when Rachael really shined. She was calm and made sure every detail of the day was executed beautifully. Our venue had a "day of" coordinator but that was very basic, we really needed Rachael to be looking out for our interests on our wedding day. I thought I didn't need a wedding planner but after meeting Rachael, I couldn't believe how wrong I was. Go with Rachael for your wedding day, you will not be disappointed! -
![Merry]()
Merry Sent on 10/03/2019My Fairy Wedding Coordinator!
What can I say about Rachael? We’re kindred spirits. I loved working with her. When we were looking for a day of wedding coordinator I wasn’t expecting a sweet surprise. She also loves Halloween and I wanted to incorporate a bit of a gothic feel to our wedding. When I spoke to Rachael about some of my ideas she really put me at ease and helped me pick out some tasteful décor to create that hauntingly beautiful feel that I wanted our family and friends to appreciate. Rachael is the jack-of-all-trades! She took care of everything from making sure that all our vendors were up to date with scheduling, delivery, and any other last minute things were taken care of. She even made it out to our rehearsal dinner to talk to our immediate family and those in the bridal party to make sure things ran smoothly the day of. Rachael will make sure that your day is how you want it to be. -
![Meredith]()
Meredith Sent on 08/13/2019So Needed!
Rachael is fantastic - she's super knowledgeable, friendly, organized, and not only is she there to help you (the bride) with anything, she's there to put your family at ease too. She was a crucial part of my wedding day as she kept me calm but on time, and made everything run smoothly. She's also priced so fairly and has multiple packages for any price point. Thank you, Rachael! -
![Deb]()
Deb Sent on 01/15/2019Excellent Service!
I recently worked with Rachel on our belated wedding reception and I was very happy with her service. Not having planned an event of this magnitude before, her insights and advice were invaluable, and really gave me a sense of confidence about our event. She was outstanding in working with the venue and different vendors along the way, and on the day of the event she was just awesome. She kept everyone and everything on schedule and running smoothly, which allowed me to relax and really enjoy our party. I would highly recommend Rachel and Glass Slipper to anyone looking for event planning help!
Deb F.Glass Slipper Weddings and Events's reply:
Wow! Thank you so much for your sweet words, Deb. I truly enjoyed working with you and helping to organize and coordinate your gorgeous wedding day. Love, laughter, and happily ever after to you and Mike! -
![vivaciouslyvictoria]()
Victoria Sent on 11/05/2017How can I describe Rachael? She has a self-assured and confident nature without being overbearing. She's trustworthy, prompt, and generous with her time. She's enthusiastic and not afraid of a little DIY (in fact, she encouraged it). A few of my favorite things about working with Rachael: - She gave excellent recommendations for DJs and photographers, two areas of the whole wedding planning process that I was dreading because it just seemed so exhausting. She was spot-on with her recommendation. How? She knows her clients and she knows her vendors, and makes recommendations based not just on budget and style but personality match. She can read people well and knows who will just make that "connection". If I was to pay myself for the hours I saved by not painstakingly poring over reviews and research to find them on my own, I'd estimate it was about $1000 right there. - She went above and beyond to help us find an outdoor venue for our ceremony. Ultimately, we went with an indoor option at our reception spot, but she diligently got to work contacting all of the venues I suggested and helped me identify pros and cons of booking them instead of keeping everything in one place. - We were interested in doing a few "different" things, and with each weird "can we ___?" question we had, we were met with a "yes" or a "no problem". We wanted a spiral aisle (got it!). We said, "no, we don't want a photo booth- let's do a five senses station!"- Rachael and Shannon (her wonderful assistant) waved their magic wands and it was done! We wanted to have a "guest recessional" OUT of the spiral aisle- went without a hitch! - She also helped us with pre-wedding festivities. She obtained information about getting a picnic permit for our BBQ celebration the day before and helped us arrange for live entertainment AND find a rental company for tables and chairs. Our day went smoothly, our guests all had such positive comments, and I can't recommend Rachael and Shannon enough. -
![Pallabi]()
Pallabi Sent on 10/01/2016I think the phrase, " Hiring Rachael was the best decision we made" was said about 23579493 times while we worked with her. From the beginning, she was responsive and detailed and so incredibly nice. Furthermore, her prices were the most reasonable of all the wedding planners that we spoke to. She worked with us to customize our package and was flexible in taking out things that we thought we wouldn't utilize. We decided to go with the Fairy Godmother package as we were planning two weddings on two separate weekend from 4 hours away and needed a lot of help.
Rachael contacted all our potential vendors and set up appointment with them, and then followed up with them after we had booked. I had a schedule and contact info every time I went to go see venues. The week of the wedding, she called and verified with everyone which was SO helpful when we were busy with last minute details. During our planning meetings, which lasted hours, we never felt like she was rushing us. She was always very organized and detail oriented!
On the day of the weddings, Rachael and her assistants were there for us in every capacity! It was 105 degrees out that day and they were right here in the sun with us with water and napkins! Shannon even ran out to get sunglasses and new undershirts for the guys so they would have fresh shirts after the baraat. During our second wedding, we had forgotten about lunch, so Rachael ran out to get us some food.
The best thing about GS was that, during the surprise Flashmob I had planned for my husband, I looked out and Rachael and Shannon were right in there doing the dance! It really felt like they were family and we will definitely miss them! My husband and I have been telling all our friends who are getting married about GS so that they will hire them and we'll get to hang out again! And also because her and her staff are amazing people and put in the all the extra effort and more that you want on your wedding day. Don't hesitate to hire her! -
![R. Xavier]()
R. Xavier Sent on 12/12/2012From the very onset, we knew that we needed not just an event planner, but the RIGHT event planner. That is exactly what we got with Glass Slipper Weddings. Every nuance and detail was given the utmost attention, and we were guided many times around obstacles we had no idea to prepare for. Their experience, work ethic, and open-door policy made hiring Glass Slipper the RIGHT choice. We cannot express what a feeling it was to not have to worry about a single thing the day of. Professional, attentive, and on top of their game, Glass Slipper demonstrated their value in service, from planning right through to the wedding day itself. One of the best choices we made for our special occasion was hiring this team. -
![Veronica]()
Veronica Sent on 10/22/2012If you are an organized bride that has all of the vendors booked & everything planned but are a bit overwhelmed then the Once Upon a Time: Day-Of Coordination Package is for you. A couple of months before my wedding day, I came across Glass Slipper Weddings and Events while browsing weddingwire. I went to their website right away just for the name alone! Who wouldn't want a fairy tale wedding?The description of the Once Upon A Time package is as follows: for those who have most of their plans in order, but need someone to act as a personal assistant on the wedding day itself & make sure every detail is in place. I knew that was exactly what I wanted! I contacted Glass Slipper via email & Rachael got back to me in a timely manner. She met with my mother & I soon after & from our first meeting, I knew that she would provide me with the calm/worry free day that I was looking for. I am a worrier at heart whether I like it or not & Rachael took all of the worry off my shoulders. She contacted all of my vendors to confirm details & she sat with me for over an hour planning every detail of the day. She assisted & provided a wedding day timeline,attended & assisted w/ the wedding rehearsal & provided unlimited advice via email for every question that came up pre-wedding. The day of the wedding she was there to assist my wedding party with anything that we needed. She also made sure that the entire day ran smoothly. Rachael is very good w/ time management! She kept everyone on track w/ time & the timeline she created went smoothly. With Rachael, our wedding day was a fairy tale! She has such a sweet, polite & calming personality. If you are feeling any stress or worry, the moment you meet her your shoulders will go down just like mine did. Thank you Rachael for making my dream day picture perfect. With you by my side, alll of my worries melted away & I will be forever grateful to you for that. You make dreams come true & are so talented at what you do! -

User859303 Sent on 07/09/2012Rachael at Glass Slipper Weddings will truly make your wedding day the day you have dreamed of. She is friendly and professional and will guide you through the whole process. I had friends and family try to tell me that I didn't need to pay a wedding planner, but I know without all her help the whole planning process would have been much more stressful. Definitely worth the investment!
She and her assistant were invaluable on the day of the wedding. Even if you don't need someone to help with vendors and planning, hire her for day-of. I was able to relax and actually enjoy being pampered and treated like, well, like a bride! I had complete confidence in her to make sure all the little details would be taken care of. The ceremony went off perfectly. The chuppah was set up properly, the ceremony pieces were in place, and everyone was where they needed to be when they needed to be there.
I think I got away with something, as she should probably be paid double for her expertise and amazing service! -
![hilda]()
Hilda Sent on 10/16/2011Heather and Rachael are delightful to work with. They will make numerous recommendations for you to choose from for your vendor selection and will keep on top of you to assure all things are moving along. The best part of selecting them is having them at the wedding. Not only did they do a fantastic job with the dress rehersal, but they were awsome with detail and follow-through on our day. They addressed all the little unexpected issues that came up with absolute professionalism and with a smile to boot. How anyone does it without having a planner is beyond me. Worth every penny you spend! HIGHLY recommended.
