    Best Vendor!!

    Nikki and her team were AMAZING. They were my favorite vendor. I hired Nikki for month of coordination and she made everything so easy. Talking to her instantly feels like talking to a friend and she truly wants your special day to go perfect. My wedding day was so smooth thanks to her and her team. I can’t recommend them enough!!

    Nikki is the best!

    We hired Nikki as our month of coordinator and it was one of the best decisions we made! She quickly jumped in and helped seamlessly coordinate with all of our vendors and got everything in order bringing a huge sense of relief to us. We were able to enjoy the final weeks a bit more knowing that we had Nikki as part of our team. Our day went better than we could have expected and we are so grateful for Nikki's help!

    Nikki is the best!

    Nikki and Callie were amazing day of coordinators for my wedding in June! Our day would not have been the same without them. The coordinator we planned to use canceled on us with 3 weeks to go, so we reached out to Nikki as she had such great reviews. Nikki is organized, speedy, and a joy to work with. I cannot recommend her and her team enough!

    Life Saving

    I hired Nikki for my daughters wedding in June, and it was the best decision I made. We chose the all inclusive package and worked closely with Nikki for months. She was responsive, organized, professional and had a wonderful personality. We enjoyed the planning process with her and the wedding day was absolutely perfect. Thank you, Nikki for all your time and effort put in to Emily & Tyler's wedding! Cheers.

    Nikki is the best!!

    Nikki was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was so kind and professional through every step of the process and even went above and beyond to have multiple Zoom calls with our officiant who lived in England.

    I am someone who cannot make decisions and she helped us every step of the way and was great with all of our vendors. I couldn't have gone through the process without here. I would recommend her to anyone getting married!

    I couldn't have done it without Nikki

    THANK YOU NIKKI! I could not have planned this wedding without her. She was everything I could have asked for and more. Everything on our wedding day was pure perfection. Can't recommend Nikki enough.

    I wholeheartedly recommend Nikki!

    I feel so fortunate to have found and hired Nikki to help with my daughter's wedding Dec 3, 2022. Nikki was our first contact with a planner and based on the fact that she answered her phone, plus our impression from our initial phone conversation we never looked further.
    Nikki knew all the right areas where we would need help and kept us on track. We had some trouble coordinating with our baker, and Nikki took care of that issue for us. Two Zoom conferences the last month were so helpful. Nikki did follow up calls to all of the vendors, coordinating times etc with each, leading up to the date. Nikki was invaluable for the rehearsal as we did not have a church/conventional ceremony. The day of Nikki was on-site early and took care of a last minute glitch that otherwise would have been up to us. Nikki was a calming force the day of, and kept us all on schedule and informed on where we needed to be when. Nikki also helped the set-up crew and cake baker with decisions on where things should best be. Nikki had one staff helper with her, who was competent and very friendly, and helped us gather items we were taking home at the end of the evening, which was so helpful so we could enjoy the wedding. The day went perfectly. Nikki's always-smiling, "it will all be fine, I'll take care of it" personality helped with the stress of the day. We were free to enjoy our guests and the party.
    I wholeheartedly recommend Nikki. Without Nikki the day would have been so much more stressful, we wouldn't have had time to enjoy the wedding, and I'm sure it would not have gone as well as it did. Nikki was invaluable!

    So happy I hired Nikki and her team!!

    Nikki and her team were amazing!! Nikki helped me pick out three awesome vendors, and she made my wedding day go so smoothly. Our wedding was in our backyard, so there were a lot of details I was worried I would forget about, but Nikki and her team made the process so easy and didn't miss a thing! 10/10 recommend!!

    Absolutely AMAZING!!!

    Nikki was absolutely amazing to work with. We hired Nikki for month of coordination and it is one of the best decisions I made when planning my wedding. The day of the wedding, everything felt so seamless and I have Nikki and her team to thank for that. We had heard that the Shinola Hotel tends to be a very tricky layout for vendors so I was so impressed with the way Nikki handled everything from preparation to execution. I cannot recommend her enough for your next event!!! She truly brought my fairytale wedding to life!

    Highly recommend!

    My husband and I got married at the Eastern in Detroit in late August and Nikki was our wonderful wedding planner and coordinator. We have absolutely no idea what we would have done without the help of Nikki and her team throughout the process. From the very start, she was extremely helpful, professional, and organized. She was knowledgable about all aspects of wedding planning and helped with selecting a venue, communicating with our vendors, developing a budget, and orchestrating events on the day of our wedding. She made sure that the day went off without any problems and rearranged the entire venue from a ceremony space to reception space during our cocktail hour. Working with Nikki put our minds at ease as she was there every step of the way, and we would highly recommend working with Nikki and her team.

    She booked a new shuttle service in less than 30min!!!

    I can't write enough amazing things about Nikki and her team! & yes, TEAM! I had 3 coordinators on-site on my wedding day to help! Amanda, the lead coordinator, was great and she knew when to bring things to me and when to go to my bridal party. I hired Nikki for her month of coordination and didn't know what to expect. I had my few calls with her before the month-start and she help me realize all of the little details I hadn't thought of yet! I really appreciated that I could meet with her for advice outside of "month-of." Then once the final month hit, Nikki was on it! Emailing all of my vendors, coordinating final tasks & asking questions I hadn't yet asked! I didn't realize how involved she would get and how much I would need her help! She was punctual and kept me in the loop on everything happening!
    Now for my day-of: My shuttle service I originally booked did not show up to pick me and my bridesmaids up to take us to the venue at 1pm! I had another shuttle service at 2:25pm & ~4:15pm to take family & guests so it was crucial I find another service. I tried to handle it myself which was really stressful, but then I contacted Amanda ~1:30pm with the problem & in LESS THAN 30MIN, Nikki was able to book a new shuttle service that was able to arrive to the hotel in time to pick up my family at 2:25pm!! Being able to trust Amanda and Nikki to handle everything on my wedding day made it so much more enjoyable. I don't know what I would have done if I didn't have them to help me.
    If you are on the fence about a coordinator or debating between possible vendors, I urge you to hire Nikki Johns Events!!

    Look NO further! Best wedding coordinator in town!

    My husband and I THANKFULLY hired Nikki for our beautiful wedding day on June 4th! Nikki and her team were absolutely amazing and super helpful! All of our pre-wedding sessions were informative and helped put our minds at ease with all the stress that comes with planning a wedding. She even followed up with us the next day with kind congratulatory words and to make sure everything was perfect! We couldn't have asked for a better wedding coordinator and will continue to recommend her and her team in the future! Thanks again, Nikki! ❤️❤️

    Shinola Wedding

    100 stars, if possible!!!!

    Nikki Johns and her team were the best to work with. You will not be disappointed.

    Nikki's commitment out the gate to take on our wedding (despite having only a couple of months til the big day)... immediately, reflected her and her team's tenacity, dedication, and confidence in being able to deliver the vision we sought.

    The entire process was absolutely efficient and seemless. Whether through text, phone calls, zoom, and in-person meetings Nikki and her team were absolutely amazing.

    Even more so, on the big day - Nikki and her team took charge and immediately knew how to handle all logistics surrounding the venue, special requests, vendors, and the wedding party.

    She will hand-hold anyone through the entire planning process. Her and her network will be be able to deliver on any request desired.

    You'll not just have a wedding planner - you'll have a team to decisively execute and take action - but most importantly you'll gain a new friend.

    The best wedding planner out there!

    We can’t say enough great things about Nikki! Not only did she help us plan our dream wedding, but she did all of it during the chaos of covid and having to postpone our big day. Nikki was with us every step of the way through planning from recommending and booking vendors to making a specific wedding day timeline, which made the process so much smoother and less stressful. We knew she wouldn’t let us miss any important details! In addition to all of the planning, Nikki was the ultimate source of calm, confidence, and reassurance on wedding day! Having Nikki and her team there allowed us to be truly present and enjoy the day without having to worry about anything else. Our day could not have gone more perfectly, and we truly have Nikki and her team to thank for this. If you are considering hiring a wedding planner, do yourself a favor and make it Nikki Johns Events - you will not regret it :)

    Nikki is amazing!

    Working with Nikki was truly a pleasure from the initial email and meeting all the way through the wedding & reception over 2 years later! (Covid led to a 1 year postponement). She’s genuine, caring, responsive and professional! As the mother of the bride & a type A personality, I needed Nikki to help make the planning & execution less stressful & more enjoyable. She was willing & able to help with anything & everything from researching venues & vendors, booking & attending appointments, arranging hotel blocks & shuttles, and making every little detail of the ceremony & reception absolute perfection! The wedding day truly was the best day ever!

    Amazing Wedding Coordinator!

    Nikki was a life saver the day of my wedding! I am so happy I hired her as my day of coordinator. She set everything up at my venue just as I envisioned it and seamlessly took over all of my previous planning. She coordinated all my vendors when they arrived which allowed my friends/family and I to relax and enjoy the day. My maid of honor was so happy because her and I had her to turn to throughout the day threw anything and everything at Nikki and it was immediately taken care of. I highly recommend using Nikki!

    One of a kind life-saver!

    I know many brides are on the fence of hiring a coordinator, and let me tell you, PLEASE do it and hire this amazing woman! Nikki was truly a god-send to me! She not only gave me suggestions for vendors but helped with my time-line, mentioned things to me that I would have completely forgotten about, and my wedding day absolutely stress-free. Our wedding was outside, big tent, backyard, so all of our vendors were brought in. Nikki did all of the communication with them on that day, set up my tables, decor, had my timeline and songs nailed down. Honestly, I didn't worry about a damn thing- even through the flash floods and tornado warnings! She made it work and we had the best time of our lives! Our guests were never waiting around wondering what the next thing was going to be and I think that is one of the most important aspects to a wedding; all because she had her stuff together and kept things moving! You'll want her, trust me! Thank you Nikki!!

    Hire Nikki!

    Nikki was amazing to work with for my wedding! She knew all the best vendors and has a relationship with many companies so she knows exactly how they work and what to expect! We rescheduled our wedding twice due to the pandemic and she handled it very well. On the day of the wedding, I truly couldn't have done it without her. She made sure everything was going smoothly and made my day stress-free! Highly recommend

    Couldn't have done it without Nikki

    As Mother of the groom I was honored to be asked to help my plan our sons wedding. I have a background in special events but knew we needed, professional to help. Want to have a stress free experience planning wedding? Blindly searching for a venue, caterer, DJ, rentals etc a lot of work. Nikki knows the venues and vendors and offered terrific advice and guidance from day 1. The Wedding was rescheduled twice because of restrictions and ended up being at our lake home. Nikki contacted all vendors and was able to switch everything in 5 months! Nikki tracked all of the details so my daughter in law and I had no concerns or stress during planning and especially on the day! We highly recommend Nikki!

    The absolute best!

    Words cannot begin to describe what a blessing it was to have Nikki as our wedding planner! From the initial meeting to our wedding day, Nikki played a huge role in making our planning both fun and stress-free. She was so invested in my now-husband and I as a couple and truly wanted to make our day the absolute best in could be. Our wedding day ended up being quite different being that it was in the middle of a pandemic; however, Nikki was so helpful and supportive during the constant change and uncertainty. She was consistently in contact with our vendors and made us aware of any and all updates. Not only that, she was so encouraging and understanding when we ended up having to cancel our reception and have a very small, intimate ceremony at my parents’ house instead. Regardless, her kind heart, positive attitude, and incredible organization skills made our day absolutely perfect and something we wouldn’t change for the world. If you are looking for a wedding planner, look no further because you have found the PERFECT person! :)

    Outstanding!

    Nikki was outstanding! She planned and executed an outdoor wedding at my home for 25 people in six weeks! She took care of everything including the caterers, bartender, tents, tables etc. She is very easy and pleasant to work with and was always available. I would definitely ask her to help me in the future!

    Great Day of Coordinator!

    Jenna was amazing with our wedding being the day of coordinator. She spent so much time with us helping us ensure we knew what to do and that we were at the right place. She came to the wedding right at 12:30pm (wedding started at 5pm), stayed through all the crazy parts and dinner/dances. She helped set up all of our ornaments, baskets, gift table, place card tables, and made sure everyone was where they needed to be at all times. At one point, the groom almost saw the bride (me) and Jenna was able to get him out of the way/out of sight in time (the groom decided to do a walk to the bathroom and didn’t tell anyone). She assisted and led us through the full process on when to enter, making sure the doors opened when they did, getting us drinks when needed, getting the photos we wanted, and coordinating everywhere I couldn’t be (because I was getting my hair done, makeup, and photos). I didn’t even need to stress, because she texted me while decorating if she had questions or concerns. We had a guest bring a plus one that wasn’t planned, we were able to quickly solve it thanks to her. I highly recommend Jenna and Nikki from Nikki events and will continue to recommend her to our friends and family!

    When we set out to plan our wedding, we had initially planned to have a family member or friends do the day-of coordination. As we planned the wedding more and more we realized how stressful and impossible this would be. When we started to look for a wedding coordinator, we were immediately smitten by Nikki’s expertise, professionalism, and infectious enthusiasm. We immediately knew she was the right person to help make our perfect day come to life.
    Even though we only hired her for day-of coordination services, Nikki was always available for questions, advice, and a comforting shoulder to lean on. Every time we got off of the phone with Nikki, or left a meeting with her, my wife and I would look at each other and let out a sigh of relief. We knew that we were in good hands.

    When the day of the wedding came, Nikki and her partner Shay were amazing. They had every single detail prepared and planned down to the tee, and they made sure everything was perfect even when things had potential to go wrong. Before we were even introduced to her, Shay was straightening out my wife’s veil and fixing her hair. During the first dance, I hadn’t realized I had frosting on my sleeve, and before anyone could notice, Shay swooped in and wiped my sleeve down as fast as lightening and made it so somehow nobody noticed her.

    Nikki Johns and her team are miracle workers and will make your wedding as magical as you always dreamed it would be.
