    Exactly What We Needed

    My wife and I just got married yesterday, and Pamela was so unbelievably helpful that we are writing this review as soon as we had a chance to sit down and breathe. Pamela is exceptional. As soon as we hired her, it was like Pamela instantly understood our vision and knew exactly what to do to make it come to life. She was never hard to get a hold of, she did not push things that were not a priority to us, she coached us on what we needed and how to request it from our vendors, and she went above and beyond the day of the wedding making sure that everything was perfect. We cannot recommend Pamela highly enough. Our wedding was perfect and exactly what we wanted it to be, and it’s entirely thanks to Pamela. We would have been lost without her and her charm, expertise, and industry connections. We almost want to go through the hell of wedding planning again just so we can hire her sooner in the process!!

    Thank you Bianca and Betsy, It was fun planning! I always looked forward to our phone calls as we always hung up laughing!

    Pamela is the best in the biz!

    We had such a wonderful experience working with Pamela! It’s clear she knows her stuff and is very experienced! For my wedding in particular she was so helpful with helping us decide on vendors (she knows them all!) keeping us on track in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding and providing insight and advice ranging from big decisions to even the smallest little details. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and she was a huge part in making it so spectacular!! We couldn’t recommend working with her more!

    PDR Events by Pamela M. D'Orsi's reply:

    Thank you sooo much Kathryne!! The band kept the dance floor packed and the decor was just beautiful! You have great style!

    Hiring Pamela was the best and easiest decision I made!

    Hiring Pamela was one of the first wedding planning decisions I made and quite possibly the easiest and most important one! Living in NYC, working with a planner who not only knew the ins and outs of Newport but also every single vendor, aspect + consideration needed for a Newport wedding (down to the tiniest of details) was absolutely critical. Pamela went above and beyond in all aspects of the wedding planning process and working closely with her 1:1 I was able to develop a true friendship along the way. She has an incredible personality and will keep you smiling & laughing the entire time. With a busy schedule and a lot on my mind, Pamela helped keep me on track ensuring we were ahead of all deadlines and making suggestions for every single detail that I would never have thought of. With her support, advice and guidance, I was confident no stone was unturned (despite feeling like we were juggling 1000 items at all times). I can’t say enough good things about Pamela’s planning and organization style but her day of delivery was equally, if not more, impressive. Wedding day was absolutely A+ - The number of compliments I received directly from friends and family on Pamela specifically are countless. She was absolutely fantastic day of, wearing 100 different hats and keeping things moving efficiently and seamlessly the entire day. I genuinely could not have executed the wedding of my dreams without Pamela’s partnership these last 18 months. I will miss our daily exchanges and hope to work together again in the future!

    10/10 Planner! Oct 2023 wedding

    Pamela is an AMAZING planner! She helped us create such a memorable day from start to finish. She is extremely experienced, detailed oriented and organized. Our wedding happened to be the same day as the the car show in Newport which is always a major event. Pamela made sure timeline was designed to accommodate any potential delays that the car show could cause. Our day ran so smoothly thanks to her!
    Pamela knows the vendors in the area very well which was so helpful while planning. She assisted in conveying our dream wedding to the vendors and making sure we had the best options. The day of the wedding Pamela and her team made sure our day ran seamlessly. She helped organize 250 guests, a large bridal party, multiple vendor and changes due to weather.
    We would absolutely recommend Pamela and her team to anyone planning a wedding.
    Thank you for everything Pamela!! Our day would not have been the same without you!!

    September Wedding- Narragansett, RI

    PDR Events truly made our wedding planning a 10/10 experience. Pamela assisted me with my bridal shower invitations, favors, colors, etc. and I cannot tell you how many compliments I received. Everyone was so impressed.
    Pamela and her team made the wedding the most unforgettable day of our lives. From invitations to welcome bags, to decor and planning- Pamela and her team did an incredible job. Our day of coordinators, Casey and Laura, had the ENTIRE DAY under control and didn't seem to break a sweat! I can't express how much I appreciated their help- talking me through any moments of nerves or stress, making sure I had apps and water during cocktail hour and keeping our entire wedding party (15 people and a 2-year-old!) in line.
    I would recommend Pamela and her team over and over - 10/10 service! Thank you so much!

    Fantastic from start to finish!

    Working with Pamela was an absolute dream! She is so on top of everything, makes sure every detail is perfect and is so quick! She made wedding planning a breeze! Without Pamela our wedding wouldn’t have been nearly as spectacular as it was and we can’t thank her enough!

    Not to mention she’s so kind!!

    Invitation Perfection

    Pamela at New England Invitations helped my husband and I navigate all our options for our wedding invitations. Trust me, there are SO many options to choose from. I explained my vision and she ran with it. She recommended colors, fonts and paper types. She put together absolutely stunning invitations-classy and romantic. She made something that could have been stressful and overwhelming and made it a fun experience. Pamela was also accommodating; I am from out of state and she really worked with me to find a date and time that worked with me. I had our first meeting with my parents, my husband and myself and we laughed and told stories while picking all of our options.

    She provided proofs and a quick turnaround. I was stunned by the beauty of the final product, they were perfect. She also did our name cards, I was very happy with this as well. The quality, professionalism, and final products were everything I could have hoped for. I HIGHLY recommend them.

    Pamela was our fairy godmother!

    Pamela made our wedding day dreams come true! While my mom and I are extreme planners, it made it so incredible to have someone who knew our vendors, had worked at our venue and made us feel special throughout the entire process. From the beginning of planning until our wedding day, I knew I could always reach out to Pamela for both the big and the small tasks. Pamela is personal, quickly learned my vision and was a key advisor throughout the process. Not to mention, she always got back to us quickly — which was so important to me. The months up to you wedding day can be a bit hectic, but Pamela was always there to bring a sense of ease and reassurance that it all will come together...and it definitely did! I highly recommend Pamela and PDR Events for your upcoming wedding or future event.

    PDR Events a Lifesaver!

    Pamela of PDR Events came to our rescue with less than 3 weeks to go before my daughter's wedding in Newport, RI. While Pamela had other priority weddings to plan and manage she graciously took on our over 200 + guest wedding. Pamela understood we had a lot of work to do - she and her team jumped in immediately working daily & diligently to ensure our daughter's wedding was perfect. It was. I am grateful to Pamela and her staff at PDR events for taking us on as clients in the 11th hour and for giving me the peace of mind none of the details would fall through the cracks. Pamela coordinated and managed the wedding details successfully, as well as gave tasteful advice on the aesthetic details. She was a true partner in styling our daughter's beautiful wedding.
    Pamela is a thoughtful, tireless, seasoned professional whom is responsive and proactive. I will hire her again to plan future family events.

    Best Decision Ever!

    Hiring Pamela to plan my October 2018 wedding was one of the BEST decisions I made for my wedding. Pamela is more than just a wedding planner, she was my go to person for EVERYTHING during the year and half of planning. I seriously could have not gone through this process without her - she was a god sent!

    We hired Pamela as our full service wedding planner for our Rosecliff wedding in October 2018 and she was instrumental in executing all of the details both big and small to make our day happen. Not only did she have amazing relationships with all of our vendors, she also brought years experience, organization, and a keen eye for detail that really helped bring my vision to life.

    We also used Pamela's invitation company, New England Invitations, for all of our paper and was extremely happy with the final product. In fact, several people are still commenting on how how beautiful our invites were!

    As for the day of coordination, I cannot even begin to summarize how thankful I am that Pamela was there. She completely took the reins so that I could fully relax and truly ENJOY my wedding day. Everything was executed perfectly and we had several positive compliments from our families and wedding party who loved her professionalism and positive attitude. She literally thinks of everything so you don't have to. For example, my bustle had broken but thankfully Pamela had safety pins and fix it quickly so I could go back to dancing.

    Wedding planning can be a very overwhelming and stressful time but Pamela takes all of that away and truly lets you enjoy the experience. If you are thinking about hiring Pamela to plan your next wedding you will not regret it !

    Wedding Dreams Come True with PDR Events!

    My mom and I originally went to meet Pamela at her invitation company in East Greenwhich, RI to order my wedding invitations. We left that appointment with gorgeous, classic invitations AND wedding planner information. We fell in love with Pamela’s personality, passion, and professionalism in our first meeting and were ecstatic to learn she was involved with wedding planning too. We hired Pamela to be our day of wedding coordinator for my September Newport wedding and my ONLY regret is not hiring Pamela and PDR events sooner to help with more of the process!!

    From the moment I asked Pamela to be my day of coordinator, which was well before the day of, Pamela was extremely helpful. She was always one step of the game and had the best personality to work with... which is wonderful during what can be a very stressful planning time.

    I can’t say enough good things about Pamela. She was extremely responsive, had an answer to every question, quick on her feet to solve “problems” before they became problems, very attentive to detail, honest, supportive, organized, and extremely knowledgeable in her field. She is an absolute pleasure to be around and it felt like I’d known her for years!

    You cannot go wrong with hiring PDR Events for your big day. Pamela and her team will help make your special day with all the perfect little details possible, and with very little stress and work from your end. If you’re considering getting a planner to help with your wedding, don’t think about it for one more day! Pamela is the answer to all of your prayers! From one bride to another, Pamela is the one who will make all of your wedding dreams come true.

    From beginnning to end, Pam was incredible! She was our day of coordinator and also completed all of our Invitations, welcome boxes, and save the dates. Pam is professional, reliable, knowledgeable and so much fun to be with. When you have Pam on your side, you can relax and enjoy your day. She is ten steps ahead of whatever you are thinking you need to get done. As a bride, I can say that I had the best wedding day I could have imagined because I had complete confidence in Pam and she ran everything smoothly. Our invitations, save the dates and welcome boxes were beautiful. She and her team are wonderful and I could not recommend her more!

    PDR Events and Pamela made our day easy and beautiful!

    We cannot say enough about how wondeful Pamela was as a coordinator, she was on top of everything leading up to the wedding and night of. Her years of experience was evident in how flawless the day went off. My father has agreed that he will never do a wedding with out PDR events and I have two sisters who are not married yet. I would recommend her 1000 times over. She was just incredible.

    Best & Easiest Decision for our Wedding

    Pamela was the best decision we made for our wedding. We had a destination wedding so we knew we needed extra help in staying organized and getting everything done. Pamela had the best recommendations for vendors, was so easy to work with, fun, and just a good person. When planning one of the most important events in your life it is a huge fear that you will pick the wrong people to help support and guide you to the conclusion. Our wedding was to not only be a celebration of our love, but also a celebration of our love for our friends and family that joined us on the day. So choosing a wedding planner to manage and act as "conductor" of sorts was a major concern for us. On top of this we needed to have someone that we got along with while also trusting them to be tough when it was necessary. Pam was all of those things and more. She was always kind, always positive, but she was also straight to the point. Not only were we extremely happy with all of the suggestions she made from the caterer to the flowers to the photographers to so many other things, but we also had a great time with her the whole time. She was warm and friendly while still being firm and decisive when things needed to get done. The whole process from start to finish was made easy with Pam on our side, and the wedding day was perfect and completely stress-free. This bride can stress about everything and I didn’t stress about anything that day and also couldn’t imagine it being more perfect than it was. Everything went seamlessly and this was no doubt due to Pamela (and our other amazing vendors whom she recommended.) We plan to come back to visit Newport on a yearly basis, and we will be having dinner and drinks with Pam each time that she will join us. She not only made our wedding day amazing, but she also made two new friends.

    Words cannot express my gratitude for Pamela and PDR Events. My wedding was something out of a magazine! It was the PERFECT wedding and it's all because of her. I came to Pam with ideas and she made them beyond anything I could of thought of! Pamela is a top-notch planner and I am incredibly lucky to have had her help. She is thoughtful, trust worthy, detailed, energetic, funny, and knows the Newport Area and vendors off the top of her head. She always made us feel as though she had everything 100% under control and she did! From the very beginning of planning to the very end, she was always there with anything we needed along the way. I was not stressed at all because I knew she had everything under control and every single detail covered. Thank you for making my wedding a weekend I will never forget. I highly recommend Pamela, to any bride who wants a luxurious, spectacular wedding and the Wedding of there DREAMS! The day of the wedding ran so smoothly. Everything, every person, every moment...
    Thank you Pamela for our best day ever.

    Pamela was amazing. I hired her for partial planning and I really wish I hired her for full planning. I was planning a Newport wedding from NJ, and Pamela recommended the most amazing vendors from a photographer, to florist to rehearsal dinner location. She understood my vision and helped us execute it with her design.

    We had our wedding at The Newport Beach House which was perfect. Pamela helped us plan how to use the whole space and everything was perfect.

    I truly can't imagine what our wedding day would have been like without Pamela. She was there every step of the way from checking in with us at the salon to the very end of the night. There were so many details she made sure happened on the wedding day including getting everything back to our suite at the end of the night. Having her and her awesome assistant by our side allowed us to truly enjoy our wedding day - thank you pamela!

    Pamela from pdr events is not just a wedding planner - she is my FAIRY GODMOTHER!

    My wedding was everything I dreamed of and more - elegant, classy, sophisticated – perfect in every way. Pamela made my vision a reality, and it was better than I even imagined.

    I have to confess that when I first got engaged, I thought I could save some money by planning my wedding myself. I was so naïve! The stress was crippling – not to mention I live 1,000 miles away from my destination wedding in Newport, Rhode Island.

    Step in Pamela to save the day. Pamela has an immaculate eye for detail and an encouraging can-do attitude. Her knowledge and wisdom of the business is extraordinary, and she is beloved by everyone we encountered in the New England wedding circuit.

    Pamela is DEPENDABLE, professional, impeccably organized, friendly, assertive, and has flawless taste. She set us up with New England’s best catering, flowers, invitations, transportation, hair and makeup, band, photographer – but appreciated we had a budget and advised honestly on what was worth the money and what wasn’t. While I was at my day job, she handled all meetings and logistics. The big day mapped out down to the minute – all I had to do was relax and have fun!

    But most important – Pamela was also a friend. She answered my frantic, 3AM, bridezilla emails by the time I woke up in the morning. She was a shoulder to lean on and wasn’t afraid to voice her opinion when I needed guidance. She made me feel special, as though her world revolved around me during all those months of planning.

    To all the brides out there – pdr events made all my wedding dreams come true! Thank you Pamela!

    To say that Pamela is the absolute BEST is an understatement.

    When I first got engaged, my mom and I happened to wander into her store, New England Invitations, to look at some sample invites. While in there, we met Pam and came to learn that she also owned an event/wedding planning business, PDR Events. After instantly clicking with Pamela's fun and energetic personality, we decided to hire her to help with the planning of my wedding the following August. I truly do not know what I would have done if we hadn't hired her. From the very beginning, Pamela made sure we had everything organized - from vendor contact sheets, payment deadlines, florals, transportation, linens, etc. There was never a moment throughout the entire year of planning that I became overwhelmed or stressed, all thanks to Pamela. She really made sure she understood my personal style and preferences. In fact, I was living in New York City for the duration of my engagement, and often times gave Pamela the reigns with full confidence to pick out certain details on my behalf.

    Another thing I love about Pamela is that even while simultaneously planning multiple other weddings, she still made me feel as though I was her only bride and top priority no matter what. On the day of my wedding, my bridesmaids couldn't believe how "funny, fun and cool" my wedding planner was. At one point the bridal party was actually chanting her name on the trolley to the church!! Now, two weeks after my wedding day, I can't think of one single thing I would have done differently and I am confident this has A LOT to do with Pamela! At the end of the day, not only did I gain the most amazing wedding planner, but I also now consider Pamela to be a friend.

    Contact Pamela at PDR Events if you are planning a wedding - you will be SO happy that you did!

    I initially thought I wouldn't need a wedding planner; however, I quickly realized that planning a wedding ( especially out of state) was more stressful than I had anticipated- lots of moving parts and so many details to consider. The sales director at our venue recommended Pamela and after one phone call, I knew I wanted to work with her. Unfortunately, Pamela was already booked for my wedding date (I reached out to her halfway through my planning process), but said she would be willing to help as a "partial planner" and that her colleague would help out on the day of the wedding. Not only did she make me feel like she was my full planner up until the wedding, but that I was a top priority for her. I literally said to my mom on a weekly basis, "Thank GOD for Pamela. Hiring her was the best decision I ever made."
    She answered all out my questions very promptly. She was thoughtful, organized, and broke everything down so it didn't feel too overwhelming. She solved any problem I came up with and was knowledgeable about all parts of the wedding including recommendations for the ceremony, layout, flow, reception, and even the bon fire after party we had. She met with me and my sister in January to go over linens, florals, and a walk through of the venue and we had the best time with her. She managed to crack jokes and get us glasses of champagne while simultaneously addressing all the different bullet points on our lists for the day. Pamela's friend and colleague Amanda met with Pamela and I for the final details meetings and she executed the day of. She didn't miss a beat and executed all of Pamela's planning super smoothly. Pam is efficient, hilarious, fun to be around, and so good at what she does. Pamela and Amanda allowed me to have a totally carefree day and to really enjoy my wedding without getting caught up in the small details. If you need a planner, I can confidently say she is best person for the job.
