Grisaury Sent on 05/19/2025Say yes to this team and you won’t regret it !
I started off as a DIY bride just looking for a team to help decorate on the big day. But after speaking with Akua and learning about her services, I instantly knew I needed her by my side throughout the entire process. What began as a simple need for day-of help quickly turned into having her hold my hand every step of the way until I married my person.
I got married in March 2025, and to this day, I can confidently say that hiring Akua and her team was one of the best decisions I made. From promptly answering emails and texts, keeping me organized and on track, making sure every detail was in place, to handling absolutely everything on the day of — they exceeded every expectation.
If anything went wrong on my wedding day, I genuinely couldn’t tell you, because it was absolute perfection. Her team was incredible — kind, professional, polite, fun, and truly the dream team.
I can’t recommend them enough. Thank you, Akua, for holding my hand and bringing my vision to life so beautifully.

I cannot thank Akua the Boss*** Wedding Planner and her incredible team enough for the exceptional job they did for my wedding. From the moment we started working together, they took charge with a level of organization, helpfulness, and resourcefulness sincerely exceeded even my high expectations. On my wedding day, they were a blessing, offloading so much of the stress that I had been carrying. They thought of details and handled aspects of the wedding that I hadn’t even considered, making sure everything ran smoothly. Their professionalism and attention to detail were apparent in every interaction, and they were always one step ahead, anticipating needs before they even arose. Thanks to Akua and her team, I was able to fully enjoy my special day without any worries. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to bring my wedding vision to life. I wholeheartedly recommend Akua and her team to anyone looking for an stress-free, beautifully executed wedding. -

We hired Akua and her team as our day-of wedding coordinator. Akua went above and beyond our expectations - from setting up numerous calls leading up to the big day, to making sure we were meeting deadlines for booking vendors and making payments, to creating detailed timelines, and communicating directly with other vendors (venue, DJ, photographers) - her attention to detail in the planning process went beyond just the day of the wedding. Akua is genuine and immediately put us at ease in our first call with her. She checked in with us to see how we were feeling leading up to the big day. On the day of the wedding we didn't have to worry about a thing! Everything moved smoothly so that we could be fully present while Akua and her team handled everything behind the scenes. Hands down the best money we spent! We would not have been able to pull of an amazing wedding without Phuliffects! Thank you, Akua & Team!! -

Sarah Sent on 09/26/2023The coordinator I didn’t know I needed!
We cannot express how deeply thankful we are for working with the Phuliffects team. From the moment we met Akua, it was evident that we were in the hands of a true professional who not only understood the details of wedding planning but also genuinely cared about making our day unforgettable.
Now, I (the bride) am naturally very organized, and planned every single detail of our wedding. So, at first, I thought we didn’t need a day-of coordinator. But one of my girlfriends reminded me that no matter how organized a person is, they can’t handle all of the many details that will crop up on the day of a wedding… And so we hired Akua who, it turns out, is not just a day-of coordinator. She took the lead months before the wedding, letting me hand off responsibilities to her and just focus on being a bride. For instance, she handled communications with all our vendors, put our timeline together, provided moral support, and so much more.
One of the most significant aspects of Akua’s work is her ability to handle unexpected challenges with grace and composure. About 90 minutes before the start of our ceremony, we decided to enjoy a private moment while sipping on two espressos. Well, my husband never got a chance to sip on his because he accidentally poured it on my dress. Yes, folks you heard right. My beautiful ivory lace gown now had shades of brown. I didn’t even panic, I just quietly said, “...please, get Akua…”. Without missing a beat, Akua removed the dress and disappeared into the bathroom. She resurfaced minutes later with a clean, dry dress for me to slip back on like nothing had happened. This quick thinking and problem-solving skills probably saved my husband’s life. LOL
We also want to acknowledge other members of the Phuliffects team, who kept everything on schedule, allowing us to relax and enjoy each moment without worrying about logistics. Their warmth and professionalism put us at ease from beginning to end. Our wedding day turned out to be a dream come true, and we owe much of that to Akua and her team. -

Siani Sent on 07/11/2023PhuliffectsEvents is hands down the best!
I am writing this review a year after my wedding, and my husband and I are still talking about how blessed we were to hire PhuliffectsEvents. If you are still looking, you should stop and consider booking them! I recommend PhuliffectsEvents to any couple planning a wedding. My husband and I knew it was the right decision the minute we had our first consultation with Akua. Right away it felt like I was talking to a friend.
She laid everything out for us in a way that made all the stress we were originally feeling go away. We were having two weddings, American and Cambodian. While the original plan was to just have PhuliffectsEvents assist for one of the ceremonies, we ended up using them for both, and we are so glad we did. Akua understood the challenges of blending two cultures and was quick to learn the dynamics of the families. Anyone that has been a part of a blended wedding know how stressful that can be. When I tell you that Akua held my husband and I down when dealing with our over opinionated family, she literally said “at the end of the day I am here for you. What you want, is what will happen.” PhuliffectsEvents did exactly what they said they would do, and more. Akua prayed for and with us, answered every question even if it was late at night, and anything that could be taken off our plate, they handled. She even stood up for me, when I had a difficult time, expressing our wishes to the family. And after all of that, both of our wedding ceremonies was a major hit! PhuliffectsEvents was so professional, organized, and flexible. Our wedding party raved about how great it was to have them present. Even now, our family and friends are still talking about how beautiful and smooth our wedding was. I couldn’t imagine getting married with the support of anyone else. Thank you to Akua and the PhuliffectsEvents team! -

Ethel Sent on 04/24/2023Truly a Phenomenal Planner
Where do I even begin? Akua was everything we could have asked for in a wedding planner and more. She was (and is) truly phenomenal at what she does. If you're reading this, first, Congrats!, and second, you're probably starting your planning process and feeling overwhelmed. What I've learned is that there's a difference between having a competent planner/vendor and having a competent planner or vendor that is stepping in your shoes and truly has your best interests in mind. The latter is Akua! I didn't feel like just a client, but I felt as though every decision she made was with our desires, concerns, vision, in mind. As a result we completely trusted her and that was smart on our part.
Akua was there with us every step of the way in planning our 2 day Ghanaian wedding, from finding a date and venues all the way to last minute Etsy orders we decided we really needed a couple of weeks before the wedding (which she placed on my behalf). She has excellent judgment and importantly had answers to all our etiquette and general questions. She even gave me a bridal robe in prep for a last minute dress change. Akua was more budget conscious than I was which was so needed, because as the date approaches, you might start to lose common sense ha! But she learned what meant most to us and really came to know our personalities. She had good judgment on what was reasonable, what was a worthy splurge, and what was something we could do without or would regret.
During our wedding weekend, Akua and her team were so on top of everything. My family sang her praises the entire weekend and some guests asked for her contact information. The wedding timeline was insanely detailed, and the team kept everyone in good spirits. She solved issues I didn't even know existed until after the wedding- like guests arriving who hadn't RSVP'd, somehow she fixed everything. As another reviewer wrote, she didn't let me lift a finger during our special weekend and more importantly, she was integral to everything running smoothly. It's been 2 months and we still hear from guests about how fun, beautiful, and well organized our wedding was. If you are searching for someone who is going to get to know you and help you plan your wedding according to what matters most to you, look no further. We are so grateful for all that she did! -

I cannot say ENOUGH about Akua and her team. If you have not booked a day of coordinator, take this as your sign to reach out to Akua immediately!
From the very first conversation that I had with Akua, I could feel a 100 LB weight lift off of my chest. She is so knowledgeable, so accommodating, and so extremely organized. We had several issues with our venue leading up to the event, and Akua was there every single step of the way. She was there every step of the way to help us navigate planning a wedding in a pandemic / post-pandemic world. She had check-in calls with us, and asked us continuously how she can help support us to make it a seamless process. She then took over all vendor communications! This alleviated so much additional stress from us. We didn’t have to worry about whether the florist, the MUA, the hair artist, photographer knew where they needed to be when, because Akua handled it. Then she showed us this minute-to-minute break-down of how our day would look. Everything was thought of (even things, I definitely didn’t anticipate for) from flower delivery, lunch/breakfast delivery, timeframes for photos. My husband and I were so impressed. There were stressors leading up to the day (as there always are), but without Akua, I’m not sure how we would have gotten through the day.
The day of, her and her team worked in lock step, and were there for me, my husband, and our vendors. We had a ton of little items we wanted displayed in the reception, Akua’s team put these together for us and put these out for us. Again, the team kept us on time, and as a bride, I never had to worry about what was next, or where I needed to be, because Akua and her truly wonderful team, just guided us through it all.
Hands down, Phullifects was the best money we spent for our wedding day. I can’t thank them enough. In addition to their incredible work ethic, the women that make up the phullifects team are just truly incredible, empathetic, kind, and professional women.

If you haven't found a wedding planner or day of coordinator yet LOOK NO FURTHER! Akua and her team are absolutely phenomenal. We were looking for someone to make sure everything was seamless on our wedding day and Akua did all of that and MORE. She was able to bring our wedding day vision to life (a vision that was so difficulty for me to put into words at times)! Akua and her team are so kind, talented, organized, and patient. We planned our wedding from another state and Akua went out of her way to visit our venue, communicate with our vendors, and even be our florist when we couldn't find one that fit into our budget. My husband and I are so thankful for Phuliffects Events team. Best decision ever!!! -

Akua is awesome! I hired her a week before our wedding because I was STRESSED. I was so lucky that she was available for my date on short notice. She came in and took over communication with all of my vendors: a lifesaver! And the day of she was my go-to for everything. She made sure I was great and I didn't have to worry about anything. If you are thinking of hiring a coordinator, DO IT and choose Phuliffects! -

I booked Akua about 4 months before my wedding. I had initially been hesitant to work with a coordinator because of a poor experience I had observed with someone else’s wedding coordinator, and I felt I was handling the planning pretty well on my own. However, I’m so glad I changed my mind and booked with Akua & her team. She came highly recommended by my venue. From our very first consultation, Akua impressed me with her organization, professionalism, and just overall genuine personality. She had many prior experiences working with African weddings which was very reassuring that she knew what to expect. She was easy to talk to and share my concerns and expectations with through the entire process. At some point our meetings began to feel more like calls with a friend. As our wedding was a 2 day event, Akua came up with thorough, detailed, and most importantly, realistic timelines for each day. She communicated with all the vendors for each day to make sure everyone had the necessary information, and that no one needed to contact me about things. Our entire wedding weekend I felt so at ease knowing that Akua was on the job. She was calm, flexible and able to pivot when small hiccups in the schedule occurred. She interacted well with the bridal party, my family, and all our guests. On our actual wedding day I was shocked by how calm I felt. Even when I tried to worry about small things, Akua quickly reassured me and regularly updated me on what was going on because I like to stay informed. I have nothing but fond memories of my wedding days largely in part to how smoothly everything ran with Akua in charge. My mom and bridal party all commented on how impressed they were with her work. She regularly checked on me & my husband as well as our parents throughout the reception to make sure our needs were being met. Because of Akua, I truly believe I had the most organized and well-run, and low-stress Nigerian wedding that has every occurred. I honestly can’t wait to plan another event mostly so I can book with the Phuliffects team and work with Akua again. If you work with Akua and her team, you will absolutely not regret it! -

Sara Sent on 04/12/2022Amazing Experience!!!
Akua was amazing to work with and I would highly recommend her. I hired Akua for the Month of Management and she was involved in our wedding planning long before the final month. Throughout the entire planning process Akua was accessible for any questions that I had and for vendor recommendations. As we approached the month before my wedding, Akua stepped in and took over all communications with the vendors; creating a timeline, and ensuring that everyone would be on the same page the day of my wedding. As a type-A personality it was difficult to delegate control, but there was no one better than Akua to relinquish the control to. On the day of my wedding Akua arrived at the hotel where I was getting ready and managed all of the moving parts while ensuring I always had what I needed. Throughout the entire wedding day, either Akua or someone from her team was accessible and engaged with me and my husband. We were well taken care of. Akua and her team at Phuliffects worked seamlessly with the staff at the venue. Thank you so much for everything! Your hard work and attention to detail was appreciated by all of us. -

Akua is absolutely the best wedding planner! I 100% recommend you book her for your wedding!! I got married in September 2021 and had the pleasure to have someone like her and her team guide me throughout the entire process.
Since I’m the type of bride that likes to also be hands on, I had Akua as a part time wedding planner. Even though she was a part time wedding planner, I felt like she was always available whenever I reached out. I also really appreciated how well connected she is with vendors. She gave me wonderful recommendations and also guided me on who was the best fit for my wedding vision.
She is amazing at what she does! I had the best wedding day experience you could ever imagine. From the morning of to the end of the reception I had NO STRESS!! Akua and her team worked so well and hard to make sure of it. There was even a time I arrived to the venue and forgot something at the hotel and Akua did not hesitate to get it for me. Throughout the reception she was constantly checking in on me to make sure if my husband and I needed anything and that we were having a great time.
Stop searching and book her ASAP. You will not regret it!! -

Impeccable Wedding Planner!!!!
Phuliffects events!!!!!! You were beyond an answer to my prayers. In my search for a wedding planner I encountered some that were not the most approachable. I literally prayed that God would help me in my search and one day she happened to be recommended to me. Not only was she recommended to me, she messaged me on IG saying, “ Your friend mentioned that you needed a wedding planner, Here I Am”. I immediately loved her from the first phone conversation. I could tell that she was committed to her brides and would go to great lengths to ensure their happiness on their big day. My initial rosey impression of her was surprisingly trumped by reality. She far exceeded my expectations. Oh my goodness, this lady did not sleep for one year and worked tirelessly to make sure all details were addressed. I would send her a text message at 1 AM expecting a response the next morning and within 20 seconds she had replied. I often wondered how she was able to give attention to her other brides because I quite literally felt that she was all mine.
I had a 2 day Nigerian wedding and on my wedding weekend, I had not a care in the world. I felt like a queen, I had to beg here to put on my own shoes. I was overwhelmed by her support. She ensured that everything went seamlessly. Everything was done in a timely fashion, and for a Nigerian wedding that is virtually unheard of. Myself and my husband are forever indebted to Akua and her team for the execution of our dream wedding. I will miss her dearly. She is not only a wedding planner, she is a friend. I 1000% recommend her. -

Akua was nothing short of amazing through this whole entire process. She made sure to keep my husband and I on track throughout our whole 9 month journey planning our wedding. I found her on a google review initially and was excited to work with her because the couple raved about her services! She exceeded every expectation! Our wedding was more beautiful than what I visioned in my head. I recommend highly recommend her services, especially if you don’t know where to start when it comes to planning a wedding! We were able to work with some of the most amazing venders in our city and the Venue she got us was breathtaking. I felt heard and seen throughout this entire process which was what I needed more than ever. I can actually say my Wedding day was stress and drama free. The entire team at Phuliffects made sure that our special day was all about us and our union. They really catered to our needs and went above and beyond! -

Katherine Sent on 09/13/2021Hire this team!
Phuliffects made our day seamless and magical. From the moment we engaged Akua and her crew to help plan our wedding, they ensured every detail was taken care of and nothing fell through the cracks. On our wedding day, the crew was onsite from sunup to sundown to ensure everything from set-up, to ceremony, to reception, to breakdown proceeded without a hitch. When we needed table linens at the last minute, she found some. When we ran out of signature cocktail ingredients, her crew went out and got some more. When we got off-schedule, she got us back on track and ensured no steps were missed. She even made sure plates of food and cake were set aside for us. And she and her team accomplished it all with grace, compassion and professionalism. My only regret is not hiring Phuliffects sooner! -

Where do I even start....There aren't enough words to express how much I love and appreciate Akua (as both a Wedding Planner AND a person) and her team! I hired Akua back in 2019 shortly after I got engaged and had NO idea where to even begin with my wedding planning process. Akua walked me through the process thoroughly, helped keep me on a timeline with tasks, and made everything as seamless as humanly possible.
My original wedding was scheduled for August of 2020, but the wonderful pandemic caused us to postpone a full year. Akua stuck with us through it all, and even helped us with our microwedding we had on our original date in August of 2020. Akua continued constant communication with me for the entire YEAR in between our microwedding and our large wedding.
Our large wedding (August 2021) was absolutely PERFECT! Akua and her team made sure to fulfill every tiny detail to make our day so special and amazing. Everything was seamless, and I didn't have to lift a finger!
There aren't enough words to express my gratitude for Akua and her team! I was lucky enough to have her plan not only one, but TWO weddings for me, and I'd have a third with Phuliffects if I could lol!
Please look NO FURTHER. Akua is the BEST! -

Michelle Sent on 07/04/2021Wow! Blew my expectations out of the water!
This team has everything you need to have the wedding of your dreams without breaking the bank. Linda and her team were hands down the best event planner I’ve ever worked with. All I had to do was show up on my wedding day. Hair, makeup, photographer, officiant, flowers, cake, DJ, photo booth…all of it was handled for me. The vendors she chose were awesome. It was stress free and I could actually enjoy the day. Linda made me feel like family. She always has my best interests in mind as well as my budget. After this experience I wouldn’t use any other event planner! They are that good!! I promise you will NOT regret hiring them. I’m still receiving compliments on how beautiful and classy my wedding and reception were. Contact them today! -

Akua was incredible! She was given a very difficult task and aced it with grace. She was able to text me throughout the process which made things so much easier and every phone call was like talking to a friend. We had a wedding where I had difficulty with most of my vendors and she put me at ease and dealt with all their bs. On my wedding day she helped me with my nails and even helped me to stich a missed loop on my dress.. I am so grateful for her help. I would recommend her to anyone. Even the wedding party raved about how awesome she was. Thank you so much for everything ❤. -

PhuliffectsEvents is the perfect choice for your special day! Linda your expertise and creative flair is second to none. It's clear to see that you love what you do and it just comes so naturally to you. You are truly talented at what you do and I am so happy My husband and I selected you to be our wedding Planner. There are not enough words to express our gratitude to you.
Linda did it all...The Boss planner helped put our entire wedding together and timeline for all of our vendors and was our main point of contact prior and on the day. She helped me with my mini break downs and helped us make decisions which were important to my husband and I on our wedding day. Linda took care of every single detail on our wedding day. She coordinated our wedding beautifully from the venue layout to the ceremony setup.
More importantly, she’s is an amazing person and her professionalism and her passion for weddings comes through in her talent and her attention to details. I highly recommend phuliffectsEvents for all your life events! -

She was supposed to be my day of planner. With all the current situations happening in the world she was my EVERYTHING. I chose Akua for her no nonsense attitude and attention to detail. I didn't want to worry about anything on my wedding day and she made sure I didn't have to worry about a thing. She helped me find vendors. She didn't blink when I had to change my venue twice and my date. She was focused and always had a smile and reassurance when the chaos that is my family started to bubble over. I'm so grateful to have had her as a part of my special day. We literally would not have had a such a beautiful day with out her. -

Akua was the best! I hired her for the “Day of Coordinator”, but she did wayyyy more than just the day of. Her professionalism is on point! She made our day 100% stress free! I’m sure I didn’t now half of the behind the scenes, and when I was told something didn’t go as planned, she already corrected it before I was even informed. Her team also does decor as well and even with my indecisive and detailed ways, she made sure I got everything I wanted. And her team works FAST which is very important. Akua made sure all vendor knew were to go and what to do at their appointed time. I cannot day how much we appreciated her! -

Akua was the absolute best. I ended up bringing her on just four weeks shy of my wedding day when it became very clear that my venue's in-house "planner" was not going to cut it. I was stressed out of my mind and Akua swept in and saved the day. She took the time to understand our vision for the day and made sure all vendors were clear on their responsibilities. She handled the "planners" at the venue so I didn't have to deal. It lifted an enormous weight off of my shoulders and allowed me to enjoy my day, which was absolutely magical. Don't even think twice about it. Seriously, just hire this girl. I am a hyper-organized entrepreneur myself with high expectations and Akua delivered. Beyond worth it!! -

I am so happy I had the privilege of using PhuliffectsEvents for my wedding. Everything was done with professionalism. If I had a thought in the middle of the night I would reach out and get a response ASAP. I would recommended PhuliffectsEvents to any bride and groom. You won't be disappointed. FYI people still come to be three months after my wedding to tell me how great my wedding was. Thanks to PhuliffectsEvents I couldn't have pull it off on my own.
