    Absolutely perfect wedding

    Hiring Maria Cucciniello at Peony Events was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. We had our ceremony at St. Vincent Martyr and our reception at the Madison Hotel in Morristown, NJ. Throughout the whole process, Maria responded promptly to phone calls and emails. She is highly organized and her attention to detail is impeccable. We had a very specific vision for our reception which made logistics a little more complicated, but Maria was incredibly organized with all these details and was very receptive to all our ideas. Maria even came to our church rehearsal to introduce herself and drop off items that were needed for the ceremony. Everything was flawlessly executed on the wedding day. On the wedding day I felt so at ease knowing that Maria and her assistant, Tu ReCasino, were making sure everything went smoothly. I really did not have to worry about a thing. Maria should be running the country, she is just so awesome. I cannot recommend Peony Events enough.

    Wedding Planner Extraordinaire

    If you don’t think you need a wedding planner, think again!

    I am so happy that we hired Peony events for my daughter’s July wedding! Stacey came highly recommended by my cousin. She was so kind, helpful, and thoughtful throughout the whole process. My daughter and I both work full time and have crazy schedules. Stacey was attentive and worked with my daughter’s schedule to do phone or zoom meetings with her and her fiancé and vendors. She also helped us get our wedding programs printed and delivered to us. There was so much behind the scenes stuff that she and her assistant did the day of the wedding. The ceremony and reception were at different locations. Everything was in place at the reception. The attention to detail and professionalism were second to none. I would tell anyone who is considering a wedding planner to hire Stacey and Peony Events. You won’t regret it.

    Thank you, Stacey and Julianna!!

    - Marie H.

    A+++++ Experience!

    Thanks to Maria for making my daughter’s wedding absolutely perfect! From the moment she came aboard, she made us all feel so comfortable and in such good hands, and that carried through to the very end of the evening. She and her assistant were so professional, organized, personable, and with such good suggestions, the whole experience could not have been one ounce better. It was just a spectacular event. They made everything happen so seamlessly and perfectly and gave my daughter and son-in-law the wedding they had dreamed of. A better start to their married life together I can’t imagine!

    Amazing experience with Peony Events!

    We hired Peony Events at the last minute for their day of coordinator package. Maria started working with us 2 weeks prior to the wedding and I truly do not know what I would've done without her. She thought of every detail, including many things I hadn't thought of, created our wedding day timeline, and took care of contacting and confirming all my vendors before the wedding. On the day of, she and Heather were rockstars, making sure that all family, bridal party, and vendors were where they were supposed to be and everything was running ahead of schedule. On the day of your wedding, naturally you're going to be busy talking to as many people as possible, taking photos, etc, that they day goes by so fast and is such a blur. I can't imagine if I had to add worrying about logistics into the mix. Having the team there really helped me to relax and enjoy the day as much as possible.

    Best decision for day of!

    Had the absolute best experience working with Maria and Tu of Peony Events for our recent wedding! They were by our side the entire day anticipating every need and truly alleviated any extra stress for my now husband and I and our families. They were invaluable, knowledgable, and so personable- we could not recommend more for any future bride- having someone help make your day of go smoothly is one of the best decisions we made. Thank you Peony!

    Amazing, would work with again in a heartbeat!

    We hired Peony Events for our wedding in New York City and it was the best decision I made. Christine is an absolute angel. She is so organized, detail oriented, on top of everything and was working her magic in the background so I didn’t need to worry about the details leading up to the wedding. She has a deep network in the industry and knew the majority of my vendors already; the ones she didn’t know prior, she clicked with immediately. She has the most calming energy and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process and on my wedding day. She went above and beyond to make sure my vision became a reality. I would work with her again in a heart beat. She is simply the best!!!!

    The Best Decision! Thank you for everything

    Wow! What an amazing group of ladies (Stacey, Christine and Tu). Peony was recommended to us by our venue and I'm so thankful for them. Although our wedding day was nothing short of perfect, we did have a few hiccups the week leading up to the big day; Christine handled it all with grace and professionalism. Christine was absolutely amazing to work with - accessible, professional, organized, caring, calm - I could go on and on. I really don't know what I would have done without their services. I truly miss working with her and can't recommend Peony enough!

    The time of my life

    I was celebrating a milestones birthday, I only had a couple of weeks to put together my dream bash.
    Immediately Stacy, Maria, and Christine went right to work. They were so confident that everything was going to be perfect. They took my vision and pulled together the best vendors in the party event market.
    The result of all their efforts was an amazing event that told my story and celebrated my birthday.

    Christine my event planner made the perfect choices and stylish design. She was professional and personable. Christine invested her time, expertise, and passion to make this event to be possible.

    The Best!!!!

    I don’t even know where to start, I am still on cloud nine from the fabulous wedding weekend Stacey and Maria of Peony Events helped us host for our daughter and son in law

    From day one with my first phone call with Maria back in April 2021, still in the midst of COVID, just after Kelly and Michael were engaged, I knew we were in good hands and on the same page. All of our vendors and reception venue (the Mansion at Natirar…it was the only place Kelly envisioned their reception) were their preferred vendors. Maria quickly made phone calls and everything was secured within a few days…Kelly was thrilled, she was on her way to planning the perfect day!

    In the coming 16 months Maria and Stacey were with us every step of the way from picking the invitation suite (Little Black Dress Paperie), gorgeous floral arrangements (Jardinere Fine Florists), pin spotting (who knew it was a thing and it made all the difference!), recommending Tapsnap for photobooth, a last minute add and truly the hit of the evening, sending us videos of bands and helping us find Clara Jordan Band, absolutely fantastic and I don’t think there was a moment the dance floor was not filled and most of all Lauren Kearns Photography and Steph and Justin of Tonemedia to capture all the special moments of the day..they were absolutely incredible and made us all feel so comfortable…my sister in-law even asked me if Lauren was a friend…a true testament to her wonderful personality!

    As the wedding drew closer all the final details and confirmations were executed by both of you flawlessly. Every detail was put into place exactly as Kelly and I had envisioned for the day. It was such a joy to see the day unfold just as we had dreamed it.. even the weather cooperated. Maria handled 3 hiccups like a pro…2 days before the wedding the vintage limo we had reserved lost it’s AC Maria worked with our vendor and tracked down a replacement that was perfect, she sewed Kelly into her dress when the hook and eye broke as we were zippering her in for her bridal portraits and remaking and pinning on my husband’s boutonnière when one of the roses fell off, I think from too much hugging of the bride! We did not have to think about anything on the wedding day…you both had it well in hand and guided us seamlessly through the entire day. It was like having your best friends supporting your every need and making sure everything was perfect. We all couldn’t be more grateful..especially my husband when he said “wow! Now I understand what you all were working so hard on! The attention to detail really paid off!”

    Thank you doesn’t seem enough. It was a special gift Maria and Stacey gave us to be able to have such a picture perfect day for Kelly and Michael. We were truly blessed to find Peony Events through a referral from good friends and we will definitely be recommending Peony Events to anyone who needs THE BEST wedding planners!

    Enthusiastic and Organized

    Peony Events was recommended to us by our venue as well as a friend who had worked with them. After connecting with Stacey, we had our initial call with Maria and we hit it off right away. Maria is personable, engaging, and fun to collaborate with.

    Since we had secured a number of vendors already, Peony worked with us pricing and set us up with a custom plan. We felt it was very clear what Maria was responsible for, which was extremely helpful and kept the lines from being blurry, but she repeatedly did go above and beyond for us. She connected my mom with someone who could help her find a Mother of the Bride dress and she reached out to some after party location options for us as well, for example.

    Maria and Peony are very systematic and organized, which helped us feel on track with all the little things a wedding can entail and the consistency in Maria’s communication was helpful for us and our vendors. Beyond that, Maria helped us find vendors who could help make our vision come to life, helped us understand industry standards and best practices in the business, and helped organize my ideas into a creative vision. She has a great eye and was key to making design choices, such as linens, table scapes, floral color schemes, and invitations. We also had Maria with us at our tasting, and she was a great thought partner with strong recommendations about items guests often enjoy at weddings. (She was right too! Everyone loved the food.)

    The night before the wedding, there was a slight hiccup with a vendor and Maria handled it swiftly and professionally.

    The day of the wedding, Maria and her assistant were enthusiastic, always smiling and genuinely excited to see the day we’d all worked so hard on come to life. I will always treasure that - I really appreciated it because they honestly brought so much additional joy to the day. Peony also kept us moving all day long, to keep the schedule as on track as possible, and made sure that my mom, groom and I didn’t worry about a thing all day.

    We couldn’t have pulled it off without Maria and Peony. What a wonderful experience. Thank you Maria!

    Best team!!!!

    I had the Peony Events team for month of. Stacey was absolutely amazing and kept me sane through pushing out my wedding a full year. The month leading up to the wedding, I was stress free as I knew Stacey was taking care of everything and day of, she kept everything moving, made me calm, took a ton of pictures, set up after party room, kept the vendors together, the list goes on…I love the peony events team!

    Thank you so much, Kate! We were honored to be a part of your special day at Natirar! We love and miss you! xoxo

    The best planner!

    Stacey was extremely helpful with planning our wedding!! She was very understanding and flexible when we had to move our original wedding date and helped us negotiate different things with our venue. She even worked with my husband to plan and coordinate a surprise for me by having a singer (who wasn’t in the band) come to sing our first dance song! I’m so happy we booked her for the 6 weeks prior planning package because it definitely made the weeks leading up to the wedding way less stressful!

    Peony Events's reply:

    Cara!

    Thank you for the kind words. :) It was such a pleasure being a part of your unforgettable, magical day! The surprise from your hubby was so on point!! XOXO

    Soooo helpful

    Maria and Stacey at Peony events are amazing!! We hired Peony Events as our "month of/day of" coordinators, and they absolutely killed it. They came highly recommended from both my florist and my venue, and they did not disappoint. They took SOOO much pressure off me on the day of the wedding by acting as my point of contact for all my vendors, and helped me with anything and everything I needed throughout the entire day. In the last month and a half leading up to our wedding day, we were in contact with Maria almost every day. She was always willing to take the time to answer my questions whether it be by text, call or email. In the final weeks leading up to the wedding, Maria helped us complete all the final details, like reception place card ideas, ordering linens for the reception, and contacting every single one of my vendors to confirm all the details for the wedding day (and there were A LOT). She even created a document with a minute by minute break down of the wedding day, which she went through in detail with me to make sure we were on the same page at all times. And let me tell you, I appreciated that SO DAMN MUCH...it may not seem like a big deal, but up until that point, I had known that I booked most of my vendors and had help from my mom with all the planning, but I still felt SO stressed, unorganized, chaotic, and overwhelmed with remembering so much information. Working with Maria, going through all the details, knowing that she knew about EVERYTHING and could take the reins from there, felt like the biggest relief. She was organized, thorough, easy to talk to, and soooo helpful. She was at the venue ALL DAY for our wedding, constantly making sure everything was running smoothly, and helping out wherever needed. I would recommend Maria, Stacey, and Peony Events to anyone!!! So glad I made the decision to get a “month of” planner, and even more glad we went with Peony Events. THANK YOU SO MUCH LADIES AT PEONY EVENTS!

    Peony Events's reply:

    Briana!!

    Thank you so much for your kind words! We absolutely loved being a part of the planning and special day with you and your Mom, the pleasure was all ours. We can't stop obsessing over your photos, truly amazing. We miss you!! xoxo

    I cannot recommend Stacey and her team enough for planning a wedding! I really don't know how she does it! She was on top of everything, on every vendor call, traveled to my final dress fitting, put my mind at ease with the worry and stress of having a wedding during a pandemic, I can go on and on. She makes you feel like you are her number 1 priority and at the end of the planning, it feels like she is a part of your family! We cannot thank Stacey and her team enough for the work they did to make our wedding day the best day of our lives! Thank you thank you thank you!

    Best Wedding Planner!

    Stacey and her team at Peony Events were so incredible throughout the entire process of planning my wedding. We hit it off right from the start and she took the time to get to know my fiance and I. I unfortunately had to postpone my May 2020 wedding until August 2020 due to COVID-19 and Stacey was a lifesaver. She took care of everything so that I didn't have to worry or stress about anything and there aren't enough words to say how grateful I was to have her during this stressful time. Stacey made sure to contact all of my vendors for my new date, always gave me her advice on things when I wouldn't be sure of something, and lastly was just always there to listen to me even at the most hectic times. She goes out of her way for her clients and goes above and beyond to make sure that her bride is happy no matter what. She was able to pull off miracles and made my wedding day our fairy tale. I would definitely recommend Stacey and her team if you are planning your wedding trust me you won't regret it!

    Peony Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Sabrina, it truly was a fairytale! We loved being a part of your planning and special day and are so happy you were able to have the wedding you originally planned. XOXO

    Exceptional

    It's hard to know where to even begin in expressing our thanks and profound gratitude for Stacey.

    Stacey essentially single-handedly transformed our Wedding day into an absolute dream come true.

    Planning a wedding in the best of times is stressful; there are many decisions to be made, details to take care of, logistics to think through.

    Planning a wedding in 2020 really just took the level of challenge involved -- both anticipated and unforeseen -- to another level.

    For us, such challenges involved navigating the general uncertainty about what we would and would not be able to do on our wedding day, and the ultimate format our celebration would take, a venue cancellation and a hotel block cancellation, both within 5 weeks of our wedding day, as well as a hurricane that caused a week of power-outages the week of our wedding.

    Stacey helped us navigate and pivot as needed through every single one of these challenges, with a supernatural level ease and composure.

    She is so responsive, so on top of everything -- every single detail, and possesses an admirable strength and composure that is calming, gentle and understated. I can't fully express our gratitude for her guidance, her approach to handling everything, and her presence. She supported and uplifted us throughout the whole process, especially during the moments when it was difficult to feel anything resembling happiness or optimism.

    It was easy to see that Stacey's professionalism, approach, presence and demeanor were not only admired by us, her clients, but also by those she works with. Stacey has close and long-held relationships with venues and vendors in the area, and from our perspective, her ability to assemble a team of truly the most absolutely wonderful people we could have ever hoped to work with as we planned our wedding -- made our entire planning process and wedding day more special than we could have ever believed and something we'll always remember.

    When our wedding weekend finally arrived, all of the stresses, worries, and anxieties completely melted away. It was beyond a dream come true and we had not one care, concern, or worry, other than enjoying every single moment of the day. Everything went smoothly and every detail was perfects, which is truly and singularly a reflection of Stacey and her team. As a bride, I will never know, but have a profound appreciation for the level of work and coordination that was required to pull everything off so flawlessly and without any detection.

    Stacey, thank you so much. We will always remember what a joy it was working with you and your team, and will forever be grateful for everything you did to make our wedding a dream beyond what we could have ever believed was possible.

    Peony Events's reply:

    Thank you so much, Natalia! We absolutely loved being a part of your planning and special day. Wishing you continued happiness and good health! xoxo

    Stacey and her team were hands down the best vendor decision we made for our wedding at Natirar this past summer! From the moment my mom and I met Stacey through to the day of the wedding, Stacey kept our peace of mind and offered many insights into the venue from the floorplan to food that we would never have known if not for her expertise and inside knowledge of the venue. During the lead up to the wedding, Stacey was always on hand to answer any questions and provide advice. On the day of the wedding, if there were any issues, I never knew about them. Thanks so much Stacey for helping create an unforgettable day for Brian and I!

    Stacey and Team Amazing

    Stacey and the team at Peony were amazing. They were front and center when we needed them and behind the scenes making even the smallest details perfect. My wife and I could not be happier with our decision to work with Stacey on our special day. We have recommended her team to many friends and will continue to do so.

    Outdoor Country Club Wedding

    We hired Stacey and her team for their Partial Planning Services after we had selected all our vendors for our June 8th wedding. After speaking on the phone with several planners, I knew immediately that Stacey was the perfect fit to help plan the remainder of our event. I was insisting on an outdoor wedding at our Country Club which would not allow us to have a tent. Since our wedding would be the first wedding to be entirely outside at the club, we needed extra help in floor plan design and flow of the day. Stacey ensured me she had done a wedding at a Country Club that was a similar situation and managed to help us build from scratch an entirely new way of doing things that the club agreed to go along with in order to satisfy my outdoor wedding. She then handled following up with all the vendors and making sure each was prepared to be outside and for how the setup was going to be. Her handling the communication with everyone prior and especially on the day of was one of the biggest stress relievers for myself and my family. She not only acted as a wedding planner but as a mediator and confidante when things got stressful. Stacey remained calm throughout the entire process which was exactly what we needed. She stopped involving me in any discussion of what would happen if it rained, which was very helpful for me in preserving a positive mindset for the day. The day turned out to be the best weather day of the year let alone June, it was 81 and sunny and the sunset was one of the best we had ever seen. If something went wrong, I didn't know about it and that was the best part of deciding to hire Stacey and her team, they let my family and I enjoy the best day ever. Our club was so pleased with how the event went, and upon learning that their staff could pull it off, that they will now be offering Outdoor Weddings as another option in their wedding packages :)

    Amazing experience

    I can't say enough about working with Stacey -- from the minute we chatted on the phone, I knew she'd be perfect. She was willing to take on the risk of planning our Hindu wedding (her first), and she executed flawlessly. As a super Type A person myself, I respected Stacey's attention to detail and organization. We couldn't have planned our wedding without her. Most importantly, she remained incredibly calm throughout the process/day, giving me peace of mind. I was so sad to say goodbye at the end of the night! If you're looking for someone who can translate your style, listen, and provide great advice, Stacey's your person.

    Wedding Coordinator

    Stacey and her team at Peony Events were unbelievable. We used Stacey for both consulting hours early on in the process and then month of coordination and it was all worth it. Although we were able to locate and book some big vendors on our own, we needed help pulling everything together and making it all work, and Stacey was just the person we were looking for. She was so down to earth and patient with us when we were trying to make the decisions about the details, and she had such a calming presence on us.

    There were two big moments where Stacey and her team really shined. The first was three days before the wedding, when we learned that a potential nor’easter might interfere with our plan for an outdoor ceremony. After some brainstorming, we decided to tent an outdoor portion of the venue. Our venue was a bit apprehensive about this, but Stacey convinced them and found a heated tenting vendor with about 48 hours to go (and she convinced them to knock down the price for good measure). The tent was up for us to practice in on Friday for the rehearsal and was nice and heated for all our guests during the ceremony. The tent was the best idea and our ceremony was incredible.

    The second, and most important thing, that stood out was her commitment to my biggest goal: having my brother with autism walk down the aisle on our wedding day. Stacey knew and understood how important it was for me to have my brother have the opportunity to walk down the aisle, and she helped us see it through (from making sure the tent was up on Friday so that he could practice in a new space with people, to making sure he had multiple exit strategies and second chances to make it down the aisle). On the day of the wedding, my brother walked down the aisle, and gave my husband a hug and a high five. Although my parents and I could only see bits of it through a tiny window in the staging room, Stacey came running back to us and emotionally told us that he did it - that he walked down the aisle. Besides getting married to my best friend, that was the most special moment of my day which would not have been possible without an amazing team of vendors including Stacey.

    All of this is to say, you have to hire Stacey. She will work tirelessly to make sure your wedding day is everything you wanted. Moreover, she is stellar in last minute changes and “crisis” situations. I don’t know how we would have done a wedding without her, and I could not recommend her more.
