    Marylee Marmer Events

    Our daughter recently got married and the venue required a professional wedding event planner. I thought, really? I can do this, what could go wrong. No way! I was impressed from the first conversation with Marylee. We worked together for a year. She and her team are knowledgeable, friendly, professional, caring, and experienced. We could not have done it without them. Having someone you trust by your side allows you to enjoy family and friends without having to make a million decisions at the wedding. Highly recommend.

    Incredible Coordination Team

    We were so happy we chose Marylee and her team to be our wedding day-of-coordinators! Not a single thing went wrong, and not many brides get to say that. That's all thanks to the excellent communication, organization, and experience of Marylee, Mackenzie, and Kiki. They made sure no detail was left out and that we were cared for the entire night. They answered every question surprisingly quickly and were always friendly and clear. The nature of our venue involved lots of crunched timelines and complications that were handled flawlessly. We were in communication for months leading up to the event and it gave us such peace of mind and confidence going into the event that they were top tier professionals every step of the way. I highly highly highly recommend them! It was such a joy to work with them!

    Must have!

    Marylee and her team made our wedding day a smooth and stress free experience! She captured and understood our needs and applied them to the day to bring our vision to life. Very minor hiccups were handled by her team with ease, leaving us without any stress and the opportunity to just enjoy ourselves. I can't imagine having moved forward without a planner/coordinator like I nearly did. She and her team took care of every detail with care and professionalism. Highly recommend! Thank you, Marylee!!!

    Five stars!

    Marylee and her team were incredible and they played such a huge part in making our wedding a successful event. Marylee is very organized, communicates clearly and in a timely manner, and really goes above and beyond for her couples. Her leadership and decision making made for a smooth and enjoyable evening for everyone. She has amazing relationships with other vendors, so on top of being our coordinator, she also served as a great advisor and vendor liaison whenever we needed her. And on top of all of that, she is also a talented designer and florist and has a great team behind her. Do yourself a favor and book MME!

    Marylee Marmer Events is AMAZING

    I could write an entire essay about how absolutely incredible Marylee Marmer Events was for my wedding. We booked Marylee from out of town based on what we had heard about the quality of her services, and she exceeded every single one of my expectations tenfold. I had a VERY specific view for what I wanted my wedding to be and it was quite outside of the box! Marylee didn’t even bat an eye and genuinely brought my DREAM wedding to life PERFECTLY. I was genuinely in disbelief when I saw the flowers and decor and couldn’t even express how perfect everything was, from the color scheme to the vibes to the calm Marylee provided on the day of. Not only did she plan and execute an incredible event, each person she met talked about how lovely and on top of things she was. I still have no idea if a single thing went wrong because she was SO on top of it. She is magical!!!!! THANK YOU!

    Working with Marylee was Perfection

    Marylee helped make all of my dreams come true!! She was truly such an amazing person to work with. She was such a calming presence during such a stressful time. We absolutely loved working with her!!! We knew we were in good hands when our venue kept raving about how lucky we were to have Marylee.

    Yes yes yes!

    Marylee and her team are AMAZING! Our wedding was at Main Street Station in Richmond, VA, and she knew every detail possible about the venue. Her florals were BEAUTIFUL, and she delivered excellent customer service throughout the planning process leading up to the wedding day. Her recommendations and expertise were much appreciated during our venue walkthrough, and she is very good at troubleshooting. She and Mackenzie were very sweet and personable to all guests and members in the wedding party, and they both made the day extremely memorable and special for me and my husband. She was always early to all events/meetings, and she always asked extremely detailed questions to make sure our dream wedding day came true. Could not recommend her and Mackenzie enough for coordinating and florals!!

    The BEST wedding coordinator EVER!!!!

    I cannot express enough how incredible Marylee is as a wedding coordinator! She truly went above and beyond for my daughter’s wedding, and I’m so thankful for her flawless execution. From the moment we started planning, Marylee made sure every detail was covered and nothing was overlooked. On the big day, she was there checking on us multiple times, ensuring everything was running smoothly and putting our minds at ease.

    Marylee has been a longtime personal friend of mine, as well as an industry professional I trust deeply. We’ve worked together many times, but this day was especially important to me. Watching her seamlessly bring everything together and keep everything on track was such a gift. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to help make my daughter’s wedding day so perfect.

    Marylee, you were truly incredible, and we cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us. Ayla and I love you so much! xoxo

    Marylee is the BEST decision you can make for your wedding!

    I cannot recommend Marylee and her team enough! I booked Marylee for day of coordination services, and she went above and beyond my expectations. Marylee was quick to answer my thousands of questions throughout the entire planning process. She gave me honest recommendations for vendors, input on decor (and even provides certain decor rentals), and in many cases helped initiate or completely handle communications with my other wedding vendors. She also did all my florals and they were GORGEOUS. The minute we were delivered my bouquet, one of my bridesmaids immediately said they've never seen a more perfect "Treva" bouquet. She nailed it on my vision!

    Rachel from Marylee's team did my day-of coordination, and I need to give an extra special shout out to her! Like Marylee, she was quick to answer all my questions in the weeks leading up to my wedding and was incredibly organized in helping fine tune all the nitty gritty details of the day's schedule. There were a couple small fires the day of that I didn't even know about until after my wedding, which I believe is the number one sign you've hired the right coordinator! If Rachel is any indication of the rest of Marylee's team, you will be in great hands with any of her planners/coordinators.

    Ultimate Wedding Hero!

    I was initially on the fence about using a wedding planner, but can confidently say that hiring Marylee was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. Marylee was experienced, organized, and — most importantly -- a trusted partner. I could always rely on her expertise, quick replies, and creative ideas to execute our vision within my budget. I had a fantastic planning experience with Marylee, but it was in the final days leading up to our wedding that she truly went above and beyond. Planning a wedding comes with its fair share of challenges, and ours included unexpected vendor issues the week of the wedding that caused significant stress. Marylee immediately took control and handled each issue with remarkable professionalism and calmness, giving me a much-needed reprieve in the days leading up to my wedding. I knew I could trust Marylee to advocate for us and find solutions — I still don't know how she managed it, but everything was ultimately resolved and our wedding was seamless. Marylee made all the difference, and I am truly grateful for all she and her team did to give us a perfect day!

    Must Hire Marylee

    Marylee is a joy to work with and I’ve been blessed to have known her for over 10 years. From the very beginning, she has been available for brainstorming, questions, etc. She is always professional and responsive. Her attention to detail, southern hospitality, and passion for the industry are unmatched. We love Marylee and will always recommend her!

    Thank you so much to Chloe!

    We hired Marylee about a month before our wedding for day of coordinator and honestly, I wish we had hired her sooner! Her lead planner, Chloe was our day of coordinator and was incredible. She was constantly checking in with me and my husband and my parents throughout the night to see if we needed anything! My husband and I also did not need to lift a finger at all our entire day. Thanks to Chloe, our day was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much Marylee and Chloe!

    Amazing overall experience and expertise.

    As a control person it was difficult as the MOB to not try to manage everything. I did not have to! Best event, well planned, great listening skills to ensure that my daughter's day was "the best day of her life". The flowers, done by Marylee, were exquisite . The decor placed and timeline efficient. They really did make our dreams come true.

    Five Star Planner

    Marylee and her team are nothing short of amazing. From the little tiny details to the overall feel/vibe of the event, she's got it down. Marylee is organized, punctual, and the perfect balance of professional and warm. We are so thankful for Marylee and her team for bringing our visions to life and allowing us to relax and enjoy our day.

    Excellence in every way!

    I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Marylee Marmer Events for our wedding floral needs. Everything really exceeded our expectations. Marylee was always super responsive. The execution of the arbor garland was amazing. She created it onsite the day of the wedding in 98 degree heat. It looks exactly like the Pinterest inspiration we shared with her. All the flowers were fresh and beautiful. The tall arrangements for our centerpieces were spectacular. I have always told everyone I can to use Marylee. Her pricing beat out several other recommended florists and I think her work was truly beautiful.

    Highly Recommend!

    Amazing experience with Marylee Marmer Events! We worked directly with Marylee as our day-of wedding coordinator, as well as Chloe Deal during the weekend of the wedding. Communication exceeded any expectations we had. In the months leading up to the wedding, we felt heard and were encouraged to check in with any questions. In addition to planning services, Marylee has a large inventory of decor to rent. She also offers floral services! I am still dreaming about my bouquet and all of the floral details. The flowers were so fresh and vibrant, and the cost was very fair. The day of the wedding was a dream. Our vision truly came to life, the timeline felt smooth, and we were checked on throughout the evening!

    Mother of the groom

    We had a very specific vision of what the rehearsal dinner would look like and Marylee hit it 100%. Her suggestions on other vendors and responsiveness to our questions, concerns and ideas were thoughtful and so helpful. Marylee’s presence and direction when the day arrived were reassuring and gave us a real sense of confidence that everything would go perfectly which it did!

    Absolutely loved everything!

    Marylee did the florals for our October wedding and absolutely killed it! Throughout the whole process she was so incredibly helpful. She offered her guidance and expertise when we needed help deciding what florals and greenery fit our vision as well as the weather and other outside factors. She was willing to work with our budget and we were able to make our florals to their fullest extent. We cannot recommend Marylee enough!

    Just the best

    Working with Marylee and her team, namely Rachel, was one of the best decisions we made in the months leading up to our wedding. Rachel was our lead planner, and in the weeks prior and day of, not a single stone was left unturned related to the minute details that made every ounce of planning come together flawlessly.

    Speaking of the day of, the anxiety of all the logistics, details, vendor management, etc. was WIPED away as Rachel handled absolutely everything with the utmost professionalism. Not ONE thing was put on our plate so that we could focus on our families, friends, and actually enjoying everything come together.

    Both Rachel as our lead planner and Marylee as a liaison throughout our engagement were so responsive, flexible, and helpful in offering creative solutions where we came up short.

    We cannot express enough how grateful we are for this team and how much we recommend working with the Marylee Marmer Events staff!

    Incredible from start to finish!

    Where do I even begin?! Marylee is not only an amazing wedding planner but also an incredible florist! She was an easy choice as our wedding planner, as she was a preferred vendor at Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens, where we got married, but choosing to work with her was the best decision we made for our wedding! From the beginning, we always knew we were in great hands. Marylee is so experienced and professional, but also an incredible person-- she is so genuine and is always looking out for her couples!

    My husband and I are living abroad, but Marylee was always so flexible with her time and was always so responsive with answering all of our questions -- we don't know how she does it! So if you're looking for someone who truly does it all-- look no further. Marylee helped us manage all of our vendors and contracts, have several meetings with us, was able to help us with rentals, did ALL of our gorgeous florals, and was so attentive and organized on the wedding day. We can't thank her enough!

    100% Recommend!

    Marylee and her team are the absolute best in the business! We are forever grateful to Marylee for helping make our wedding vision come to life. She is so kind, organized, professional and supportive. She reassured us whenever we worried, she kept us organized when there were hundreds of details to consider, and she reduced our stress tremendously (honestly, my cousin commented I was the calmest bride she had ever seen!). We will recommend her over and over to any couple planning a wedding.

I couldn't imagine our day without her support, encouragement and dedication in making our day everything we could have ever dreamed of! As another wedding planner in the industry, I didn't trust our day with anyone else!

    Best Experience with MME

    We had the BEST experience with Brickhouse RVA for our recent wedding of about 50 people. The package that they offer is great! We can’t say enough good things about Marylee and how amazing she was throughout the whole process. We felt supported the whole time and she made sure that everything ran smoothly along with her business partner Andy on the day of. Marylee did such a great job and went above and beyond to make sure we weren’t stressed about anything. Marylee did a beautiful job setting everything up and the florals were gorgeous. I highly recommend Brickhouse RVA and Marylee Marmer Events for your next event. They made our day so special!

    Absolutely wonderful!

    Marylee was amazing to work with. She is extremely personable and made us feel so special and excited about our wedding. She helped us stay organized & I completely trusted her to handle the vendor communication leading up to the event & all the tiny details the day of. Her rentals were wonderful & helped us save money. She really helped make our wedding everything we envisioned!

    Hiring Marylee & Team was one of the best wedding decisions I've made

    Words cannot express how thankful I am to Marylee & her team. As I have told many of my friends & family, hiring Marylee was one of the first and one of the best wedding decisions I've made. I interviewed probably a dozen wedding planners, and Marylee stood out without question because she is so knowledgeable, supportive, responsible, professional, and easy to work with. Most importantly, she is the first planner I talked to that cared about what I think & what I want for my day, not how everybody else wanted/was doing. She always replied to emails so promptly & answered all my questions big and small. She knows everybody in the industry & really helped me save a lot of time and energy searching for vendors I could trust & work well with for the big day (planning a wedding with family far away& working full time was hard). She is so on point about everything and made our big day so smooth & hassle-free. We also hired her as our florist and that worked out well too. In short, hire Marylee!!!

    Where Do I Begin

    Hiring Marylee was far and above the best decision we made for our wedding. We started with her day of coordinator package and bumped it up to one of her planner packages once we saw just how much work and time goes in to planning a wedding. She made everything feel manageable, organized, and fun from the very beginning. She took the time to understand our vision for the day and executed it flawlessly. She also did our florals and decor and they were just stunning, so far and above what we had imagined. Not only are she and her team so talented (special shout out to Tanya for helping the day run so smoothly), Marylee is genuinely one of the kindest people I have ever met. She has such an amazing attitude and brightens up your day whenever you talk to her. I am so thrilled we decided to use her for our wedding. Everyone always says something will go wrong on your wedding day and you’ll just have to roll with it, but I can say without any hesitation that was not our experience and I owe it to her.

    Amazing all in one wedding planner!

    We hired Marylee to help plan and coordinate our wedding for November 2022. But as a bonus she was also our florist and provided a ton of decor items! She saved us so much time and money by being able to provide all these services with her team! Marylee was very responsive anytime we needed her help, she was very professional and had everything prepared and questions ready during our walk through. We wouldn't have been able to do it without her! She helped us through some vendor difficulties and had our back at all times! The day of the wedding she helped me feel less stressed and assured me through out the day that everything was going great! She communicated with all our vendors and the day went by smoothly. Marylee and her team did a great job and I would recommend them to anybody in need of planning services!

    Choose Katie! She’s a God send!

    Katie F. was our day of coordinator and she was phenomenal. She literally took the stress out of my day (since I chose to plan my own wedding) so that I could be in the moment and enjoy my wedding day. She would also check in on me throughout the months before my wedding. Katie was so sweet, attentive and detail oriented. She took charge of everything for me and I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. She handled the vendors for me, flower arrangements, all of my guests and family, anything I needed or asked for she was on it. My day was perfect and went so smoothly, she made sure of it. Do yourself a favor and hire a day of coordinator but not just anyone, hire Katie. Worth every penny.

    Marylee and team are the absolute best!

    My husband and I gushed about Marylee to anyone who would listen throughout our entire planning process. She is organized, communicative, accommodating, and such a joy to work with. She also has amazing connections within the Richmond wedding community, and she recommended most of our vendors to us. We had an all-star vendor team and a perfect wedding weekend, all thanks to Marylee.

    Wonderful team to work with

    As someone who dreads the idea of event planning, I am here to tell you that you NEED a Marylee in your life! We just cannot stop talking about how much fun we had and how much we loved our wedding, and that was 100% able to happen because Marylee and her team lifted the entire world of planning stress & hosting anxiety off our shoulders. We felt so taken care of - not just on the wedding day but throughout the whole process. Marylee has such an amazing gift and we feel so lucky to have had her team guide us every step of the way.

    Marylee Marmer Events is the BEST!


    We cannot even begin to express how grateful we are for the time and effort Marylee and Katie, our day-of coordinator, put into making our wedding day absolutely perfect and a total dreamy fairytale.

    From our first meeting with Marylee her enthusiasm and passion absolutely shone through and we really, really loved that about her. Anytime we had a question, even if it had to be repeated because we forgot the answer, she was always patient with us and extremely quick with responses or anything we needed. Her guidance in our most stressful moments in the planning process was extremely comforting and so, so helpful. The florals she put together for us and consulted us on were P E R F E C T !!! They were a great price too. Everything was so beautifully matched together and arranged, I still cannot get over my gorgeous bouquet. The flower placement on the cake was absolutely stunning as well!

    And as for Katie?? What can I say about her except for WOW! I cannot believe how she was seemingly in all places at all times we needed her on our wedding day. She kept everything running incredibly smoothly, was patient with ourselves and our guests, and despite inevitable hiccups in the night made sure that the brides focused on the most important thing - Celebrating our wedding! And Katie getting our meal plates to us before the mingling began and we completely lost track of the time?? Holy cow - absolute game changer. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Katie for being the true MVP of our wedding day.

    Our sincerest gratitude goes out to MME for making the best day of our lives all come together ❤️

    How to feel relaxed on your wedding day

    I cannot say enough amazing things not only about Marylee but my lead planner Tanya. Marylee, was so thoughtful, considerate and reliable the entire year leading up to my wedding. Tanya, instantly became my best friend for the day and I knew once a task was in her hands I didn’t need to give it a second thought. She put my needs and wishes first the entire night. My reception was beautiful and exactly as I envisioned. She made sure I was not only on time but hydrated and feeling my best so I could truly enjoy my day. Thank you, thank you, thank you! !

    Fantastic Coordinator!!!

    Marylee Marmer is a fantastic wedding coordinator! My wedding was delayed for over a year due to the pandemic, and she made coordinating a new date with all of my vendors a much less stressful process. She always offered expert advice, and calmed any worries I had. You want Marylee as a coordinator for your wedding--it's definitely not her first rodeo and she knows how to make a wedding run smoothly and helps to create your vision! Highly recommend!!! Thanks Marylee!!

    Awesome start to finish

    Working with Marylee was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. We used MME's "month of" coordination services, but Marylee was super responsive and helpful throughout our entire planning process. From the first conversation with her, I was immediately put at ease and felt supported every step of the way. Working Marylee and our day of coordination team (Katie & Bella, who were also fantastic) added peace of mind and removed pretty much all anxiety from the process.

    Even though we encountered some last minute hiccups, the MME team was able to get things smoothed over and the day was pretty flawlessly executed.

    I was also thrilled that Marylee does florals & event rentals - she just seemed to "get" us and the vision we had early on for our wedding, and everything was beautiful the day of.

    Highly recommend!

    A life saver!!

    Marylee and Shelby were my lifeline towards the end of wedding planning. They were super organized with everything, and also extremely sweet. They kept everything running smoothly during my reception, and kept me calm during any hiccups with the other vendors. I couldn't have asked for better people to help me pull off my day!

    I also did my floral arrangements, chair rentals, and chair covers through Marylee, and she did a fantastic job. Everything looked exactly how I wanted it, and I didn't have any exact photos to give her as inspiration!! Highly recommend.

    So glad we worked with them!

    We worked with Marylee and Katie for day of coordination and floral design. I can't say enough how helpful it was having Katie there the day of. We could relax knowing our vendors were taken care of which was great. She kept the whole show running on time and we got a lot of compliments from guests for how well organized it all felt. Beyond that, Katie was everywhere that night and knew where everything was at all times. (Including my sneakers when I desperately needed out of heels) The floral design was also incredible. My bouquet was STUNNING. The rest of the décor and flowers were exactly what we wanted and then some. A Pinterest page brought to life. Our whole experience was amazing and I would definitely recommend hiring them to anyone!

    Produced the best day of my life

    Calling Marylee and Katie coordinators seems to lack justice. They are miracle workers, magicians, life savers. While we thought we had it all planned out in the months leading up to it, we could not have anticipated how much Marylee and Katie filled in missing gaps and smoothened rough edges. It was the best day of our lives, and it was their passion for this craft that made it so full of gorgeousness and beauty and cosmopolitanism and love. Speaking specifically on our wedding day, Katie seemed to be anywhere and everywhere that was needed, whether the situation was expected or not. She was there to guide, to troubleshoot, to offer advice and gentle words, and to help us be present. I love the way that she made my family feel safe, comfortable, and assured. Katie is truly special. Marylee was highly responsive despite how busy she had been and always made it easy to communicate and ask (a million) questions. I’ll never love another, I’ll never marry again— but I hope that there is another wedding I attend where I can witness these two working their magic, as it is truly something to experience. They are the best there is, truly.

    Seamless big day!

    Loved our experience! Marylee and team kept my on track with my planning and shared helpful advice whenever I was unsure of what I needed to do. She created a clear timeline for our bridal party and was also just so sweet and put me at ease right away from our very first meeting. On the day of I felt so thankful to have them there to keep things running smoothly, especially when a guest had a medical emergency and they made sure adjustments were made to timeline and also that that person was OK.

    Support above and beyond!! Hire her!!

    Marylee and her team are AMAZING!!! She helped us through a very challenging Covid wedding when the circumstances were overwhelming for us.
    She is incredibly friendly, knowledgable, and overall someone I would hug if the timing was right. Her 17 years in the industry show. She and Katie took on more responsibility at the event than required and made the event go as smooth as possible.
    Even AFTER the wedding they continued to help with a vendor that did not perform as expected and gave us really good advice on how to progress.

    WOW.

    This is a team I would recommend time and time again!!!!

    We love Marylee!!

    Marylee worked tirelessly to make sure we had every, single thing we wanted to for our wedding. Not only did she provide all of our flowers (bouquets, bridesmaid flower hoops, boutineers, wristlets, table flowers), but she helped provide beautiful decor and did set up (even though she was not hired to be the planner). She was AMAZING to work with and such a shining light for us on our day. I loved my flowers and the decor we used from her inventory. We could not have had this perfect day without Marylee involved!! I can't say enough great things! We love you Marylee!!

    Lifesaver!

    We cannot thank Marylee and her team enough for being such an integral part of our wedding. We worked with her as our day-of coordinator and were quite late to the game, only realizing we needed help ~2 months before the wedding. We worked virtually across different states, and she went above and beyond her “day of” role in countless ways. Quite simply, there was nothing that we had to worry about on the day of the wedding – everything went perfectly without the slightest hiccup. We felt so supported by Marylee and were grateful to be able to relax with our guests; we have nothing but positive memories of our day. Her professionalism, attention to details that never would have occurred to us, and overall communication were so incredible, and we will be forever indebted. She has such a warm demeanor and was a pleasure to work with. We hope she keeps doing what she does so that other people feel as happy as we did.

    AMAZING in every way!!

    Marylee has been amazing from the very beginning! I had her for a month of wedding coordinator but really she has been answering all of my emails literally within the day sometimes within the hour for over a year with all my crazy questions! She was so attentive on our wedding day I couldn’t have asked for more. Very professional, kind and helpful in every way. Thank you so much for a great experience and making my visions come to life. And can we take a minute to say how beautiful her florals are?! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Truly couldn't have asked for anyone better!

    I don't even know where to begin with this review. I have nothing but WONDERFUL things to say about Marylee and her team! A friend of mine referred Marylee Marmer events to me to do both my florals and month of coordination and it was one of the best decisions we made! First of all, Marylee and Andrea (the planner we worked with) have the most calming presence. They are incredibly sweet and also know exactly what they are doing. Every time I met with them, for floral consultation, final venue walk through, and rehearsal, I immediately felt at ease. Marylee did my florals and I was truly BLOWN AWAY. I had no idea what I wanted, but through her guided questions, we were able to brain storm the perfect bouquets and floral pieces for our wedding (not to mention her price was way better than all competitors!!!) Once our walk through and rehearsal came along, Andrea took care of all the details. Even when rain was forecasted for our wedding day, she coordinated everything and the ceremony was even more beautiful inside than it would have been outside. Andrea and Marylee did such a wonderful job making us feel comfortable and confident in our decisions. We didn't have to worry about a thing and had the most laid back and fun wedding day. Definitely book them- you won't regret it! Thank you Marylee and Andrea!!!

    Beyond Impressed with Marylee Marmer Events

    I cannot begin to express how much we loved working with Marylee Marmer and her staff for our wedding and florals. Even though our wedding was small (30 people) we decided early on that we wanted a coordinator. Let me tell you, it was the best decision we made! From start to finish they were personable, professional and available for every little question we had. The price point for the coordination and florals was very reasonable. Marylee worked with us and our budget so we never felt like we were sacrificing anything.
    We went with the Month of Planning-Level 2 package since our wedding was on the smaller size. Our coordinator Katie was phenomenal!! There were a lot of nerves going into our wedding day since it was an outdoor ceremony and there was a high chance of rain. We really wanted to have our ceremony outside and Katie went out of her way to make sure our dreams came true. She ran around in the rain directing people, drying chairs and keeping the whole thing running smoothly. The rain stopped right on time for our ceremony and a small part of me swears she made sure it would. She is a force of nature!! On top of all that she also set up the florals and decor for our reception. She truly made our vision come to life. Soft candles, white flowers and greenery-it felt like we were walking into a spa. Our guests still talk about it! Katie made sure we were happy and stress free at every turn on our big day.
    We cannot recommend Marylee Marmer Events enough whether you just need a coordinator, florals or both!

    Everything and More you could want in an event planner

    They went above and beyond helping us though postponing our original wedding because of covid to making sure the big day went without any problems. They were extremely helpful and with us each step of the way. We felt taken care of and were able to relax and enjoy our wedding. We cannot thank Marylee, Andrea, and the whole team for their help! I am so happy we hired them as our wedding planner and month of planner. If you are getting married Please get a wedding planner, I would go with Marylee Marmer Events ;)!! They are so amazing!! If I could go back in time I would have done the full year wedding planning option!! Thank you Marylee Marmer Events!!

    Amazing Coordinator and Florist

    I couldn’t recommend Marylee and her team more! We had Marylee for our coordinator and our florist and she seamlessly brought all my inspirations to life! She was organized, responded to every email quickly, and took care of every detail on our day! Our reception was an absolute dream and more than I could have ask for! Any bride could not go wrong with Marylee Marmer Events for coordination and florals! Thank you Marylee!

    The absolute best!!

    TLDR: You WILL NOT regret booking with Marylee Marmer Events. Never have I been so adamant about writing a review – Andrea and Marylee are amazing. They go above and beyond to make your day special. We’re so grateful for them.

    If I could convince a couple to choose any vendor for their wedding, it’d be Marylee Marmer Events. In fact, before our wedding even happened, I convinced a friend of mine who is engaged to book with them! Working with Marylee and Andrea was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding. We ended up working with them for two years because we had postponed our wedding due to COVID.

    In that time, they were our advocates when we needed them and they gave us advice when we asked for it. There are so many little decisions you’ll make when it comes to wedding planning that it’s helpful to have someone in your corner who’s done this before. Andrea and Marylee were so kind but also gave us confidence they would deal with any issues as they came up. They absolutely delivered. Andrea and Marylee truly put us at ease and they know how to get sh*t done. That’s exactly when anyone needs in a planner or coordinator. Andrea coordinated on the day of our wedding and completely rocked it. Everyone commented about how on top of it she was. We couldn’t agree more. From working with her up until our day, we knew she would be amazing.

    Are you also thinking about florals? We originally shopped around at different places for flowers and ended up booking Marylee for florals too. Not only was it convenient, Marylee gave us the fairest price and she is so skilled at what she does. Marylee put no pressure on us to book with her but at the end of the day, it was totally the right call. My flowers came out GORGEOUS. They were better than I could have imagined (and believe me, I sent her about 1,000 Pinterest pictures). She took it all in stride, and everything was beautiful.

    We would work with Andrea and Marylee a thousand times over again. Book them!

    When A Vision Becomes A Reality

    Marylee and Andrea took my daughter's vision and created the most beautiful romantic garden wedding. Marylee meet with us several times over the course of two years and provided month of planning, day of coordination and the gorgeous florals. One of the many commpliments we received were about the amazing florals on the tables and the bouquets. When we first started planning, my daughter wanted a hanging chandelier. Marylee really took the time to listen to what the bride wanted and created a beautiful greenery hanging chandelier. Knowing that Marylee and her team were taking care of every detail took the stress out of the day and enabled us to enjoy every moment! We can't thank them enough for the most perfect day!

    Wonderful Experience

    Marylee was amazing to work with and made it so that we didn’t have to worry about anything! Along with being our wedding planner, she was also our florist! She did such a wonderful job and was so easy to work with. She was always on top of everything and since she was our florist as well, she made decorating a breeze! We highly recommend her!

    Best decision I made for my wedding

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Shelby and Marylee Marmer Events. My husband and I were forced to replan our wedding within 2 months of the event due to COVID-19. We downsized and shifted venues, and that came with significant stress associated with working with a venue and staff who was less experienced with weddings. More changes were made to the logistics and the layout of the wedding the week of than I had ever anticipated, and Shelby helped to not only guide me through the process, but also offload the communication with the venue and the rest of my vendors. The day of, several things needed to be adjusted related to weather and decor, and she just made it all happen and made sure everything looked beautiful. I always knew I wanted a day-of coordinator to help offload the stress of coordination on my day-of, but I didn't appreciate how important she would be in making sure the day came together and in alleviating my stress the week of - even my husband commented on the change in my stress level when Shelby got involved. Shelby and Marylee Marmer Events truly saved the day. Worth every penny and more!!

    Stress free and AMAZING!

    I first want to start by saying Marylee and her team are absolutely amazing! The entire planning process was so stress free and amazing. Even from a state away Marylee always made me feel so at ease when it came to planning. Even when I was feeling stressed or panicked about something I was able to speak with Marylee and hand off all of my worries. The best part of having her and her team was the day of the wedding it was the most stress free day and I could really sit back and enjoy the day! Marylee and her team are the absolute best!

    So nice we used her TWICE!

    Marylee is fantastic! I used her for my wedding in 2017 and when my sister got engaged we knew we needed her again! Not only is she knowledgeable but she's so patient and kind, which is very important as a bride! Marylee is amazing day-of with logistics and her/her team work so hard to pull off an amazing event

    Abolutely Fabulous and used them for multiple services!!!

    Marylee and her team are absolutely fabulous. They are incredibly quick to respond and very detail oriented. We actually used them for coordination services, florals and linens and they rocked all three areas! She basically built my bouquets with very little direction from me and sooo many people complimented them at the wedding!!! The linens were beautiful and so so affordable and her coordination services were so top notch!! The executed everything we wanted and I could not have asked for a better team on our day!!! Thank you Marylee Marmer Events!!

    Working hard so you don't have to

    Shoutout to Andrea for making our wedding run smoothly and flawlessly! Girl I saw you lugging those decorative gourds from the ceremony site to the reception and I APPRECIATE that! Not to mention the hundreds of other things I'm sure you did to help make our night the best it could be, that I didn't even see. I am not the best at communicating but Marylee and her team helped us figure everything out, and worked with our vendors (seamlessly, as far as I could tell!). It was nice to have someone there to take the load off my maid of honor and be another set of hands to help set up/take down.

    Awesome experience!

    We had a great experience working with Marylee! We had multiple planning sessions leading up to our wedding where we discussed all the details with Marylee. These calls were very helpful and ensured that we weren’t forgetting anything! It also gave us peace of mind knowing that we had a planner looking at everything – the big picture and the small details. Marylee was very response to emails and phone calls and was always available for questions. She was also very attentive on the day-of our wedding – she checked on us and our family members multiple times throughout the night and ensured that everything flowed smoothly. If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further than Marylee and her team!

    Marylee is amazing!

    Marylee was easily the best decision we made when it came to planning our wedding. She is professional, kind, and great at all aspects of her job. She was a wonderful resource throughout the planning process even though we chose her as our day of coordinator. We had our ceremony in the same room as our reception so her and her team only had an hour to flip the room for dinner and the room looked stunning. She executed all of my plans perfectly and remembered every detail that we had discussed during planning meetings. She also provided florals for our event. The bouquets far exceeded my expectations and the table arrangements were exactly what I had imagined. She did an INCREDIBLE job with the florals for an extremely fair price. I would recommend Marylee and her team to anyone. I didn’t have to worry about a thing on my wedding day and I felt completely relaxed knowing that she had it all under control. We couldn’t have done it without her!

    The best decision I made!

    Hiring Marylee Marmer and her team was hands-down the best decision I made throughout our wedding planning process! Throughout our 10 month process, I debated about whether to hire a wedding planner. I knew our venue had a day of coordinator but wanted to ensure that everything went off without a hitch. I am very type A and wanted the day to run smoothly but also wanted my husband and I and our families to be able to enjoy the day. About 3 weeks prior to wedding date, I finally reached out to Marylee. Not only did she respond right away and have the date available but she tailored a package to meet our needs. As our date approached, Marylee and her team ensure that all loose ends were being tied and everyone was in the loop including family, vendors, and wedding party. Shelby and Andrea were the team members there on wedding and rehearsal day. They are absolutely fabulous!! I couldn't be more thrilled with the time and energy they put into making myself, my husband, our families, and all of our guests have the most amazing time. They were so sweet and friendly but when things needed to happen, they were on it! My parents and in-laws also agreed that Marylee and her team went above and beyond our expectations! People are still raving about our wedding and how much fun they had!!

    Marylee & her team made my day flawless

    When I first got engaged, one of the most-recommended pieces of advice I received was "Get a wedding planner!" This came from people who had one and those who didn't...in fact, it was the #1 regret of those I spoke with who DIDN'T get one. They regretted not having someone to run point on the day of, leaving many tasks to family and friends (or worse, themselves). After interviewing several local wedding planners, I immediately felt comfortable with Marylee's demeanor, accessibility, and helpfulness. I'm a Type A planner, so I wanted to do most of the legwork myself, but Marylee was always there from the day I booked her to answer questions, provide recommendations, or just keep me sane. My actual day-of coordinator was Jennifer, who kept things running so smoothly that my parents (who hadn't been at all involved in any of the planning sessions with Marylee or her team) kept commenting on what a great job she was doing. I went into the big day logically expecting something to not go according to plan, but Marylee and Jennifer had it so wrapped up that the day was flawless. I couldn't recommend her enough!

    Highly Recommend!

    Marylee and her team were an absolute dream to work with! I recommend her team any chance I get! Hands down one of our best valued vendors. We hired them for the day of services, décor rental, and flowers for our reception and cake. I told Marylee a few ideas I had and her team created an incredible space for our reception. Neither of our families had to run around the day of setting up the reception or having to pack anything up at the end of the night. Marylee, thank you so much allowing us to enjoy every minute of our wedding! Sarah and Steven

    Hands down the best!!

    Marylee and Elizabeth are hands down amazing!! We choose to do day of coordination, and they made sure to keep us on track planning, and answer any questions we had and ensured our wedding day was exactly what we wanted.. By the time our day arrived, I knew I wouldn't have to worry about a thing! Elizabeth handled everything, and made sure both my husband and I had plenty of food, drink, and that we were having a great time! I cannot recommend Marylee and her team enough, they will not disappoint!

    Marylee was great to work with! She was very reliable and was the perfect wedding coordinator. Not only was Marylee our wedding coordinator, but she also did the flowers for our wedding. That made it so much easier when talking to her about decorations/flowers around our venue. We did not have to worry about ANYTHING the day of the wedding as Marylee and her team had it all under control and as the bride that is a great feeling on your wedding day. I cannot thank Marylee and her team enough for making Matt and I's wedding day the best day ever! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fabulous wedding coordinator!

    We just celebrated our wedding at the Virginia Cliffe Inn this past Friday and Marylee and her crew were awesome!! From the very beginning of our planning process, Marylee was very responsive to any questions we had and had very timely responses to all our emails. She made sure my husband and I were taken care of for the night and we did not stress one detail knowing Marylee had complete control. Thank you so much helping to make our wedding day totally picture perfect for us!

    Marylee was amazing from start to finish!! She put up with my many emails and countless questions and had many great suggestions for vendors! Marylee when above and beyond meeting us at the venue multiple times and ensuring that we felt confident about how the wedding would flow. We brought boxes full of decorations, flowers, and basic ideas to her during the rehearsal and I was amazed at what she had done when we came for the ceremony! She perfectly executed my vision! At the end of the night, everything was packed up, cleaned up, and in cars. No work left for my family! Not only is she great at her job, but she is such a great person! She gave up her birthday to coordinate my wedding! I would hire her again in a heartbeat and suggest her to anyone!

    Marylee is amazing with planning, communication, flower design, keeping everyone calm and on track. Marylee is the perfect, and must have choice for any wedding. She is the vendor I would definitely in a heartbeat use again. She was always available to answer any questions no matter how silly or small. When I started to stress she suggested we meet and calmed me down. The day of our wedding she not only did am amazing job beautifully orating (better than I could have imagined) but she and her team kept everything running smoothly, and perfectly. I disnt even see them packing up everything at the end of the night. My new husband is ready to do it again, but only with Marylee. Thank you for being the most professional, becomming our friend, and loving what you do. She is AMAZING!!!!

    Marylee made our dreams come true on our April 1st wedding. We only had her for flowers and centerpieces but she truly made us feel like family and went above and beyond to make our dreams come true. She gave us a fairytale wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better florist or person to support us every step of the way.

    Marylee is such an incredible wedding planner and beautiful person inside and out. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was by my side the entire time. From the very beginning of my engagement right until the end when we took off for our wedding night. I had no idea just how much goes into planning a wedding, but I was so blessed and thankful that I had Marylee by my side the entire time. Anytime I had a problem or question, she was there for me. She helped me stay in my price range and contact everyone I needed her too. She was my rock. I could not have done it without her. She made my wedding day so special and go so smoothly for me, I truly do appreciate it. My *husband* and I just love her and would recommend her to anyone! She will get the job done and make it a breeze for you, so you can focus on what truly matters, marrying the person you love. She will make your dreams come true. Definitely choose Marylee Events, you won't regret it, I promise.

    Marylee Marmer Events was fantastic! We had Andrea as our day of coordinator, and we absolutely loved her! She made sure everything ran smoothly and really took away a lot of our stress. All of our emails and questions were answered very quickly, and any concerns we had were addressed with nothing but cheerful responses. I could not be happier with the way we were treated and would recommend Marylee and her team to any bride looking for a professional and happy team!

    Marylee was awesome, and had beautiful flowers to match. She catered to all of our wants and needs, in results a beautiful wedding. One thing I would only suggest is different material for coursages. They weren't really quite long enough, and somewhat difficult for them to stay put. Only a suggestion but they were all still beautiful!

    With only having met Marylee and her staff a month before my wedding, she was able to invision and pull off all of the ideas I wanted. I specifically worked with Lindsay and Taryn for my wedding weekend and they were awesome. Again, they took my visions and were able to make them happen. Very friendly and professional!

    Marylee is a doll! She made sure I didn't worry about a thing on the day of our wedding. She had her team there a few hours before our wedding to set up everything. They did a great job. During our rehearsal and the actual ceremony she guided everyone on the where, how, when and every little detail I could think of. We were so lucky to have her there for our wedding! During the reception, she made our plates for us with a bit of everything. She went to the bar and made sure we constantly had whatever it was that we needed, including our families. She kept everything flowing and moving in a timely manner. I would have been a wreck if it wasn't for her. Do not hesitate to hire her because you will not regret it!

    Marylee made me feel as if I was her number one priority. She answered every email within fifteen minutes. She calmed me down when I had my bridezilla moments and worked well with my crazy family and friends :)

    Marylee was so very helpful and accommodating taking over all contracts and communications with vendors during a very difficult time with the death of a loved one the week before the wedding. I could not have imaged the wedding running as beautifully as it did without Marylee help. The wedding turned out absolutely perfect!

    Marylee was our wedding planner for our October 2012 wedding. For over a year we were privileged to get to know her and to have her working on our day. She has so much insight and experience that she made planning so easy! I am so thankful we had her to keep us on track as I had no idea how many small details were involved with planning a wedding. Marylee was always available for questions or suggestions, and we never had to wait for responses. Probably the best thing about Marylee is who she is as a person! She is so courteous, cheerful, funny, and a joy to be around. Her calm demeanor also makes for a very comforting experience because you know she has your back and is on top of everything! We are thrilled we had her as our planner and even more so to call her a friend!

    MaryLee was fantastic. From our first meeting until the wedding day she handled all of the emails, paperwork, and phone calls needed to get things in place. She pulled us in when decisions needed to be made, and clearly outlined the options (always with great recommendations when necessary). She saved us an incredible amount of time, and made it much easier for us to enjoy the process. We highly recommend her to anyone considering a planner.

    - Emily & Jared

    The wedding went down like clockwork

    Very organized. Great attention to detail. Was absolutely on point with the time-line for the evening. Everything went much smoother than I anticipated. Marylee was like a border collie - keeping everyone focused and doing what we were supposed to be doing! She has a lot of experience with local vendors which can be really really helpful and has certainly seen enough weddings that makes her able to give good advice, and bring up things we wouldn't have thought of. An absolute pleasure to work with and a pro at getting wedding dresses bustled up!

    Mary Lee and her team are great!

    Mary Lee was great - no hiccups on the big day! She was organized ahead of the wedding, and made me comfortable that things were being taken care of.

    Easy to work with and great value.

    Marylee and Elizabeth were extremely easy to work with and they really put my mind at ease with questions that we were just really unsure of. We did the Day of Coordination and all of the planning seemed to be executed perfectly. We were really hands on in our planning but again they really stepped up when we had questions about etiquette and how things typically run in regards to scheduling.
