  Perfection!

  We can't thank you enough for helping us create a vision for our wedding celebration and then bringing that vision to life. After reading our responses to the survey you sent us, you honed in on a single answer (we want our guests to leave the wedding saying, "that was the best fucking party ever!"), and used that to develop a design concept and show flow. And Melissa! Do you know how many of our friends/family exclaimed those exact words?! So many! Folks had a blast and said it was one of the best weddings they'd ever been to. A friend of mine even said she wanted to copy it, lol.
  
  Everything was so beautifully done, including the way you managed hiccups on the day of, those we know about (the cake!) and those we don't :) You have a gift and we feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to collaborate with you to plan our special day. You exceeded our expectations and we are beyond thrilled about how everything looked and played out. It was one of the best nights of our lives. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  Breath of fresh air

  Melissa is such a a breath of fresh air. July 2021 I had a micro wedding, of 40 people, in my backyard. Initially I thought I could plan what i thought was a small gathering on my own…boy was I wrong. Hiring Melissa was THE BEST decision I made. I told her a little about myself and my husband, completed a survey on her online portal and she took over from there. Melissa is a wonderful person and loves what she does, she’s very dedicated to her work. She was so great at bringing my vision to life. She superseded my expectations and my guest were raving about the decor months after. As with many weddings, I experienced some hiccups the day of the wedding and Melissa was so wonderful with keeping everything under control and helping to keep me calm. She’s an amazing wedding planner. I rate her service a 10/10 and would most definitely recommend her.

  Melissa is the best wedding planner you could ever hire!

  I was planning to have my wedding during the thanksgiving weekend of 2020, and I had no idea that the pandemic would impact whether or not I would have the wedding. Melissa kept me calm and grounded. I didn’t even fully know what I wanted in a wedding until she brought my vision to life. She’s so detail oriented!
  
  After the wedding, I thought I misplaced my champagne glasses , which were my “something old”. My parents used the same champagne glasses for their wedding. I was an emotional wreck , thinking I lost them but Melissa so kindly packed everything of value in a box and placed them in my mom’s car. This was just one of the many ways that Melissa is thoughtful and caring throughout the whole process. I’m so very grateful ! I was barely stressed in the year and a half we spent planning.
  
  Though she had many clients during the time she was helping me, I felt like I was the only bride in her world. I highly recommend Melissa’s services.

  Great planner!

  Melissa was amazing to work with. She even worked her magic during a pandemic and a replanning of a wedding. When shopping around for a planner she stood out above the rest showing talent and dedication in the industry. She listened to my ideas and came back with so much more to enhance my vision. She did go above and beyond and I appreciated that so much at my times of break down. She is someone you will keep in contact for years to come. Would definitely recommend.

  My Go-To for Chic Events

  Honey Bee Weddings and Events is the team that every person needs to conceptualize and execute their events. From initial conversation to the day of the ceremony and beyond, Melissa and her team were there to ensure my celebration had manifested into a reality. We spent countless hours brainstorming and fleshing out ideas to ensure a seamless and whimsical event. And even when there were hiccups, Melissa and her team were there to quickly troubleshoot. I wholeheartedly couldn’t have completed this insane task without her. She is the BEST! I can’t wait to collaborate with her for my next event

  Melissa the Miracle

  Melissa has been the God-sent, miracle angel of my whole wedding experience. My original wedding date was August 2020 and the guest list was approximately 300 people. Then COVID happened. Melissa handled rescheduling the vendors and venues, she kept us in constant contact and she NEVER made any decisions without us. My, now, husband and I decided to do a micro wedding. With, what seemed like, such ease she put together a small backyard wedding for 70 people. It was so beautiful and extravagant that the guests were in awe that it was such short notice. She was mindful of our budget and of our special needs. Melissa took my ideas and transformed them beyond anything I could imagine. She is the key to EVERY WEDDING! Whether you are overwhelmed and don’t know where to start or what you like; OR if you know EXACTLY what you want, she can make all your wedding dreams come true and EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS. She truly can do it all.

  Our Magical NYC Wedding (and stress free)

  There arent really any words to describe the wedding ceremony, happy hour, and reception that Melissa designed and brought to life for us. Melissa was a God send. If we didnt have Melissa as our planner, I honestly think we would have had to push our wedding back a year (which would have not worked) or done the bare minimum which would have sucked. Not only was it the best night of our lives, our friends and family are still talking about the night a month later. She is super serious about every little detail and wouldnt let any detail go unnoticed. Melissa became a FRIEND of ours over the 6 months she jammed to get this planned. And yes, I said she planned our wedding in SIX MONTHS. It LOOKED like it took a year to plan. Everything from the live Christmas trees, to the custom dance floor, the table design, the Hall of Fame happy hour (both my husband and I were college athletes) was one of a kind! Everything was MAGICAL. If you question the vibe of the room at all.....just take a look at our wedding video below. Thank you Melissa for making this the BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES. We love you and are SO glad we found you.

  Exceeds Expectation

  The professionalism, honesty and attention to detail is unmatched. I am grateful to Melissa for basically being the only reason that I was able to execute my vision. I would not have been able to pull this off without her. I recommend her to anyone planning a wedding/event! Top notch service with a smile!

  A Visionary Breathe of Fresh Air!

  We always dreamed of having a Classy Carnival themed wedding. We wanted fun and prestige at the same time. It proved to be a true challenge, because all Honey Bee Creative had to work with was a soccer field. HOWEVER on the event date, the space was transformed! Not only was it perfectly setup, decorated and designed, but everyone forgot they were on a field, because we were all so in awe of the beautiful scenery surrounding us, no matter which way we turned. Even at night, our space transformed again as our showstopping Stillwater tent was illuminated with chic uplighting. During the planning process (or FUN, because you'll find yourself looking forward to the communication) Honey Bee Creative constantly grasped a firm concept of not only our design preferences, but our taste in amusement and overall purpose of the event. Every decorative detail, activity, even the food options were so intentional (food trucks) and formulated to reflect my husband and I. Our Classy Carnival represented us to a T; from the ceremony arbor, to the custom entry doors, striped tablecloths to the glorious hanging centerpieces, to the modern jazz band, videogame arcade, stilt Walker (and other Roving Entertainment), Aerial Acrobatics,and the list goes on! Our guests were just as thrilled as we were! Even when the event was over, we received several compliments, thank you's and many professing that from the invitations to the actual wedding, they had never experienced anything like it before, and it was the best event they had been to in a very long time.
  I cannot wait until we have another event, so we can hire Honey Bee Creative!

  Outstanding Fundraising event for a non-profit

  Melissa was AMAZING! Professional, detail oriented and took care of all the little things so I didn't have to. This allowed me to focus on the event itself. Even more incredible than the work she does is the manner in which she does it - very personable and goes above and beyond expectations!

  Super Attentive!

  Honey Bee Creative really focuses on making your vision for your event come to life. For my wedding, she talked through everything with me and gave ideas and perspective. She upheld awesome relationships with vendors which built trust and great quality service from everyone! She went above and beyond. Even traveled from NY to ATL to do a venue visit before the wedding! Was very attentive to detail which was a big thing for me. It’s the small and intimate things that make a wedding special and she was sure to highlight those. Overall, wonderful experience working with Honey Bee!
