Cassy L. Sent on 01/13/2024Best wedding ever, thanks to Naomi!
As someone who is very organized, my husband and I thought: do we even need a wedding planner?! The answer is YES! And with someone like Naomi in your corner, it will all go off without a hitch.
We started working with Naomi about a year before our October wedding at City Winery Hudson Valley. As we all know, the planning process can be pretty overwhelming, but she made it so so seamless! Naomi is always on top of the details and exudes a calmness that made the entire process way less daunting than we anticipated.
Our wedding was honestly the best day / night of our lives and a huge part of that is because of Naomi. Everything went perfectly (at least as far as we know -- if anything did go wrong, we had no idea about it and Naomi handled it like a boss). Can't recommend her and her team enough! -

Naomi is truly the reason our wedding was a success. I'll start by saying as two project managers, my husband and I were pretty confident we could plan a wedding without help. Pretty early on we were convinced of the benefits of a planner, and boy are we glad we had Naomi in our corner through this process! She is so knowledgeable, organized, and understanding through what is inevitable an overwhelming planning process, and at the same time is a super tough lady who will stop at nothing to make sure her couples get what they want! We had a truly wonderful, rainy wedding day and she worked harder than anyone to make sure my husband and I could enjoy our day and stay as calm as possible even through the elements. We had a lot of small details and decisions to be made throughout our wedding weekend and she handled them beautifully. She kept us calm while pulling all the strings in the background. Even after she left for the night she still helped us through a bussing challenge and was there till the very end! I can't recommend Naomi enough - you have no idea how much she's really handling until it's all happening at once, and we're beyond thankful that we had her as our planner. -

Naomi brought our vision to life - and beyond!
Naomi was the cornerstone of our wedding logistics coming together so seamlessly. I cannot thank her enough for her incredibly hard work and dedication to making our day a success that exceeded our expectations. When I first met Naomi, I was drawn to her experience in theatrical events - those who work behind the scenes in theater are innately skilled in keeping an event running without the audience even sensing the crew is present. Naomi delivered and then some - the day was so perfectly orchestrated that it enabled us and all of our guests to be completely present to experience the magic of the day. We had a unique vision for our wedding, which was primarily held outside with open fire caterers and a dining tent - Naomi embraced even the more challenging aspects and did everything possible to support our vision coming to life. From our first planning meetings, Naomi was an incredible thought partner in assisting us with narrowing down vendors and needs, providing a check list to keep our progress in motion and on time, and connecting regularly for touch base calls all along the way. Not only were the logistics put at ease, it was an absolute pleasure to work with Naomi - my husband and I looked forward to connecting with her for our planning calls. Naomi’s calm demeanor and approachability made the process feel less like work, and helped us focus on our excitement for our big day - she worked so hard to deliver on every aspect, while still remaining at ease. Naomi was so open and responsive to our parents as well, which provided them a great sense of support and enabled them to truly sit back and enjoy the wedding, too. Naomi orchestrated a complex busing schedule with ease and Grace and was on top of every detail of our special day, big and small. We recommend Naomi without reservation to anyone looking for excellent wedding planning or coordinating services. Thank you, Naomi, for being so incredible at what you do! With your guidance and expertise, our wedding day exceeded our wildest dreams. -

My wife and I truly could not have been any happier working with Naomi. She is absolutely one of a kind. Even though we initially weren’t sure that we needed a coordinator, we are so happy that we chose her. She made sure that everything went smoothly on the wedding day and she was there every step of the way during the planning process.
When we decided to hire a wedding planner, we interviewed a number of different people before talking to Naomi. Others were okay, but once we spoke to Naomi we knew that this very positive person was the right wedding planner for us as soon as we hung up the phone. My wife and I consider ourselves pretty organized, but it is nothing compared to Naomi. She is incredibly experienced and was prepared for everything. When we were planning the wedding, Naomi was easily reachable and promptly responding to our questions. She was always on top of things, making sure that we had everything covered and that us and other vendors were all on track and prepared for all contingencies. Naomi made the planning process pretty straightforward, seamlessly coordinating with all other vendors, and was truly our advocate whenever needed.
And more than just being a great wedding planner, she is clearly an incredibly nice and caring person. A great example of this was when she realized that, because of the schedule, our photographers would not be able to have dinner at the same time as other vendors. To make sure there was enough food left for them, Naomi worked with our venue to take special care and have the food ready when our photographers were free to sit down and finally eat in their hectic schedule.
When the day of our wedding came, we were at ease knowing that she was there to make sure it all goes smoothly. She was always there whenever we had any questions, and also constantly working with other vendors and setting up. Quite a few of our guests and vendors later told us how they thought that Naomi was great and how they couldn’t believe that our wedding was completely on schedule, all thanks to Naomi who kept it all on track. She was able to perfectly balance steering everything and getting ahead of things before we knew what needed to be done, while at the same time making sure we had enough space to enjoy our big day and have fun without any of it being rushed.
Naomi is such a positive person and absolutely the best - we can’t recommend her enough! She made our wedding day perfect and we are so happy that we chose her. -

Working with Naomi was an absolute dream. We hired her for 3 month planning for our wedding in July. It was the best decision we made. Naomi was attentive, professional, very calm when stress increased, and the perfect help for our big day. On the day of, our family and friends were so impressed with how Naomi took on every situation – helping with a medical emergency, taking care of every single detail, and working with such professionalism with all of our vendors. Truly – Naomi was such a team player. My husband and I had a truly perfect wedding weekend, and that is largely thanks to Naomi!! Highly Highly recommend!!! -

I found Naomi through word of mouth, and I think it was fate! Naomi made planning our wedding such a joy. We were busy with our jobs, so our monthly meetings (for roughly a year) really kept us on track and our vision for our day alive. She got to know me personally which made lots of decisions down the line easy. She truly became a trusted friend through the process, which allowed me to let go of control and rely on her advice.
10/10 recommend Naomi over and over; she will bring positivity to the process -

Lauren Sent on 09/22/2021The absolute best
We truly can not imagine having been able to have a wedding without Naomi. There were so many little details to be aware of and she made everything work without a hitch. To say she alleviated our stress would be an understatement. She is truly such a gem and we are so grateful to have had her for our very special day. -

Absolute Perfection
We cannot recommend Naomi Grace Events highly enough. Naomi is a consummate professional, in full command of all the skills a wedding planner should possess: organization, communication, good taste, budgeting, negotiation, and etiquette. Whenever we had a question, Naomi had an answer, and when we ran out of questions, Naomi suggested new ones.
While Naomi has numerous hard-won professional connections throughout the New York metro area and the Hudson Valley, she never hesitated to leverage them for our benefit; we always felt that her foremost loyalty was to us, as her clients, and not to our vendors. She seemed to have a sixth sense for up-selling, and helped us renegotiate and avoid many unreasonable expenses. In the end, Naomi probably saved us more than double her fee.
In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Naomi developed a comprehensive schedule that accounted for everything: deliveries, arrivals, family photographs, and more. What is more, she did it all with good humor and resilience that went a long way towards helping us manage our own considerable stress levels.
On the day of the wedding, Naomi seemed to be everywhere at once. She smoothed things over with our persnickety venue and artistically temperamental caterer, charmed our most awkward family members, and even held an ocean of well-wishers back long enough for us to eat a little something.
We loved Naomi. You will too. -

Had our back all the way!
It was quite the process to choose a wedding coordinator. It was hard as a designer to relinquish control- but we are so happy we choose Naomi! What you want in your corner on the days leading up to the wedding is someone who takes control of planning and can be on the front lines extinguishing all fires with a smile on! And that’s exactly what Naomi did- she was positive all the way, happy, involved, but assertive. We had a non traditional wedding and she was super go with the flow with every non conventional thing we threw at her. She made our day go smoothly and if there were issues I didn’t hear about them, which was fantastic! Hire Naomi to take your wedding off you hands, you will not regret it! -

Eden Sent on 10/03/2018Short version: Naomi is a GODSEND.
Long version: We were one of those couples who didn’t think we needed a wedding planner. Our wedding was going to be super chill, laid back, family-focused, in nature... Which, actually turned out to be true, but, mainly because Naomi was there.
2 months before our wedding, our numbers swelled, costs doubled, and the stress set in. Turns out, you can’t hand-draw welcome cards, DJ, host 180 people, design your dream ceremony, AND get married at the same time. (And actually be present for it).
So our last-minute hire of Naomi was a godsend. It was an expense we hadn’t originally calculated, but turned out to be one of the most valuable aspects of our day. We (and our parents, and our guests) STILL talk about how amazing she was at handling everything.
From our initial meetings to the rehearsal dinner to day of coordination, she handled every single obstacle and opportunity with ease, humor, and a gentle “We’ve got this” attitude that calmed the environment. With her at the helm, it felt like we sort of just flowed our way into the wedding. Which is exactly the type of energy you want around you on your wedding day.
And don’t get me wrong— of course many things were going wrong! But I had no clue, and they all worked out— thanks to her graceful maneuvering. I had no idea, but minutes before our ceremony she was architecting a 200 foot power cord run, dealing with a volatile venue owner, and on the phone with our caterers who were stuck in traffic and running an hour late.
Naomi is equal parts toolbox-wielding handywoman and organized wedding planner, and I strongly suggest you budget her into your wedding, because if you do, no matter what happens, everything will be okay. -
