    Best Wedding Ever

    Nicole had 3 months to help us plan our wedding and she did a phenomenal job. From finding and interviewing vendors, finding a venue and arranging a competitive contract - she did it all. And on our wedding day, she handled everything professionally. It was so amazing and we didn't need to worry about a single detail the day of our wedding. 10 out of 10!

    Highly recommend Nicole!

    Nicole was excellent and we would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in the Atlanta area! She was on top of everything and we couldn't have done it without her. She was very responsive, went above and beyond for us, helped with a lot of little details, and handled everything on our wedding day so well.

    Thank You Nicole!

    Nicole was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She is professional, but also builds a relationship and is always willing to help. She is always 2 steps ahead and knows exactly what needs to be done. We are so grateful for Nicole!

    Perfection!

    Nicole was invaluable! She is so smart and a pleasure to be with!!! She covered every detail, did every spreadsheet, knew every vendor, was always available to talk at any time, helped with things not even on her list --- and did it all with a smile and a great attitude! She kept us all sane and focused throughout the process. Both my daughter and I loved working with her! I would recommend Nicole without reservation! She is THE BEST!!!!

    We love Pretty Swell Parties!

    We’re so thankful for Nicole and her team. In addition to being extremely helpful with every aspect of our special day, she and her team are calm, cool and collected, which helped keep us that way too. We always felt that Nicole and her team had our backs - and totally trusted them throughout the process. We’re very thankful for all of their great work and kindness - and highly recommend Pretty Swell Parties!

    Organized with an eye to detail

    Nicole has an outstanding eye for details. From engagement to post wedding she was on top of everything. Nicole guided us through all the steps beforehand so that there were no surprises along the way. The night of the wedding, things went so smoothly. We never noticed a hiccup and I'm sure there was at least one. She kept us (parents of the bride) isolated from any issues the night of the wedding...she just handled them.

    I cannot express strongly enough how much I appreciated Nicole as the planner for my daughters wedding this past weekend!
    Nicole was our Day Of Planner, but I honestly feel like she was there for us as soon as we hired Pretty Swell Parties a year before the wedding!
    She couldn't have been more calming, reassuring and organized in the most gentle and warm way. From the beginning stages when decisions were being made to the meetings and phone calls about the time line and final minutes of the party and even after, Nicole was the person I was always happy to see and hear from!
    Nicole worked so well with all our vendors, who were also very impressed with her easy to get long with, soft spoken, calm and very amiable demeanor.
    Our outdoor fall wedding was on the one day it decided to pour cats and dogs and be the coldest, wettest most dreary day, but Nicole handled all the stress of making alternate plans working with vendors, the families and guests to the last little detail with no hitches and we had the most amazing wedding in spite of the weather!
    I told Nicole and truly believe she was worth every penny! I highly recommend Pretty Swell Parties and give major Kudos to Nicole for all her help!

    Melissa was amazing! She helped us every step of the way. There are so many decisions when planning a wedding. Melissa provided us with a schedule, planned all appointments and guided us when making decisions. She was responsive and took care of things as they arose. She was professional and organized. We couldn't have chosen a better wedding planner to make our daughter's wedding a perfect day!

    When the reality of the amount of time and effort it would take to fully plan my wedding set in, I knew that I would need some help. A friend recommended Melissa, and after our first coffee meeting I knew that I would be able to trust her with this big event. Looking back, it was the best decision I could have made. She was there from that moment on through as many of decisions as we needed through the final send-off the night of the wedding. Everything went off without a hitch, and each phase of the wedding preparation and day transitioned right into the next seamlessly. I couldn't speak more highly of her, she's amazing!

    We used Melissa Bloomfield as our wedding coordinator in May and she was outstanding. She was always on top of everything (deadlines for contracts, orders with long lead times, etc.) and ensured the wedding day went smoothly. Her advice with vendors, decorations, and scheduling was spot on. She also ensured my wife and I had nothing to worry about the day of the wedding, which allowed us to enjoy every minute of it and be stress free. We would highly recommend her to anyone.

    Nicole and Melissa are outstanding at what they do. We worked with Nicole on setting up our daughter's wedding, and Melissa helped out on the wedding day. Nicole was always available for advice and help. She made up time lines and made sure that we were on schedule.
    There is no way the wedding day would not have gone as well as it did with Nicole and Melissa.

    I knew from the moment I got engaged that I would need a wedding planner. I am not a Type A personality so I asked one of my friends that owns her own floral business if there was anyone she'd recommend. Melissa at Pretty Swell Parties was the person she thought would be perfect and she was right!

    From my first meeting with Melissa, I felt put at ease which is what every bride wants, and I was so happy to have her help putting everything together. Even though Melissa was my day of planner, she was absolutely fantastic during the months leading up to the wedding, not just the day of. She did SO much more than day of coordination. She made wonderful recommendations, she gave me advice, we walked through the venue about a month beforehand to make sure we had everything planned out, and answered any question I had throughout my wedding journey. By the time we got to the big day, I wasn't stressed. I got to actually enjoy the day because Melissa and her assistant had it all handled and had coordinated with every vendor. Even with unexpected snow flurries, Melissa remained calm and our wedding day was truly perfect.

    When I say it was the best day of my life, I mean it and we never would have gotten there without Melissa. Everything went smoothly, we ran on schedule, and my groom and I had the best time! I don't know what we would have done without Melissa and her team. I highly recommend Pretty Swell Parties for any event. It was the best decision I made in regards to my wedding!

    I can't even begin to describe how amazing Melissa is and how she helped us create the most perfect wedding day.

    We had a long engagement and for almost a year and a half Melissa guided, advised, and helped us navigate the wedding planning process. She was always prepared, calm, and full of knowledge. She provided us with amazing vendor recommendations and helped us narrow down and make decisions. She always made herself available for any questions we might have and in the weeks leading up to the wedding she was amazing at calming an anxious bride and groom.

    Whenever we encountered any bumps in the road, Melissa assured us that no matter what our wedding day would be perfect and go off without a hitch. And boy did she deliver. On the day of the wedding Melissa and her equally amazing assistant Nicole took care of absolutely everything. From arriving with hot biscuits from the bridal parties (a very big hit!) in the morning to making sure that everything was on schedule to ensuring that everything was packed and returned to us in impeccable condition. We had no worries on our wedding day because we knew Melissa was in charge.
    If there were any issues behind the scenes, we never knew it because Melissa always had a smile on her face and she guided everyone through the day flawlessly.

    My husband and I had so much fun on our wedding day. We laughed, we celebrated with our families, and we danced the night away with no worries. And our ability to do so was in large part thanks to Melissa.

    From the time we met the ladies at Pretty Swell Parties to the minute they finished after our wedding, we were so incredibly happy to have them on our team. They were responsible, organized, knew exactly what to do and when. They took care of Everything. As mother of the bride, I was 100% confident in their ability to do their job. The efficiency, promptness, and coordination was outstanding. When looking for a wedding coordinator, look no further. Pretty Swell Parties is the BEST!!

    Both Melissa and Nicole were fantastic to work with while planning our wedding. Down to earth, warm and friendly, professional- couldn't imagine pulling everything together without their help and guidance! Our wedding day (April 26, 2015) was perfect, they covered all details (even ones my mother hadn't thought of) and most importantly, if there were any hitches we never heard about them.

    Every meeting we had with Melissa and Nicole was focused and helpful- they offered firm yet kind guidance when some of my DIY ideas were unreasonable. Looking back now that the festivities are over, it is clear that hiring Pretty Swell Parties to help with our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made. We wouldn't have changed a thing!

    Just the name Pretty Swell Parties makes my smile so it was a pleasure when I met with Melissa Bloomfield to discuss handling the “Day Of” coordination for our daughter’s wedding. Most of the major decisions had been made but I knew that I wanted, and needed, someone to ensure that I could enjoy one of the happiest days of daughter’s life. It was a wonderful decision. After so many months handling all the logistics of this wedding, with the bride in San Francisco, and me and the wedding venue in Atlanta, we all floated through the big event and gave over to Melissa all the last minute details and issues. Our wedding on March 28, 2015 was just perfection to us on so many levels, and Melissa is one of the reasons.

    Melissa is kind, joyful, thorough, professional-all attributes that come into play when there is a large production to handle. So many little details where managed seamlessly so that we could focus our attention on the bride, all our family and friends and the wedding itself.

    There is so much value in knowing that every plan and detail have been handled and there is someone ensuring that your wedding is a loving, happy memory. Bottom line-hiring Melissa and Pretty Swell Parties is money well spent to ensure that all your planning and efforts pay off with a event that you can enjoy and remember forever!

    Thank you so very much, Melissa.

    I cannot thank Melissa enough for her help during my wedding planning and wedding. I called her my wedding "xanax" because she not only calmed every fear, but followed through with every need, want, wish and hope. I was an anxious bride, but because of her, I was able to enjoy the planning process of my wedding. She comes armed with a notebook and a smile, and she makes everything so seamless that you would never know if there was a hiccup. Melissa was a pro at dealing with multiple high-strung personalities and making sure every voice reamained true to what I wanted. She was able to anticipate needs I hadn't even considered and squash each unecessary worry.

    Her assistant Nicole was equally as sweet and eager to help. They impressed me not only with their quick follow up but follow through. One example of them going above and beyond was during the wedding when my back went out. They kept the whole wedding moving along, moving things like father daughter dances as needed, and going to CVS and applying Icy Hot patches under my dress. I will always remember them being so dedicated to my enjoyment of the day (even under crazy circumstances) and making sure it was the best day of my life!

    Please consider Pretty Swell Parties for all of your wedding planning needs. You will have more than a "pretty swell" time! I did!

    If you don't want to read a long review, Melissa and her staff are absolutely phenomenal.
    ...
    I am a rabbi, and have worked with many wedding coordinators through the years as the officiant of celebrations. I first Melissa in this context, as she was the coordinator of a good friend of mine whom I had the honor of marrying. She was friendly, helpful, and anticipated possible needs before I even expressed them.

    Based on that experience, my fiancé and I then hired her to be our wedding coordinator.

    As is the case with most weddings, we had a lot going on. Limo driver, photographer, band, DJ, photo booth, pies (instead of wedding cake), bars, a pre-event for the women, a pre-event for the men, a pretty wild wedding party, and all of it coordinated so that I did not see my bride in the 24 hours before the wedding (up until her walking down the aisle) ... Melissa organized it all (and there's more than I listed!) with aplomb and professionalism. She told us we wouldn't need to worry about anything and just as was my experience when I served as an officiant, she anticipated things before they happened. We were able to COMPLETELY enjoy our wedding day. Both my fiancé and I are type-A personalities, and it was an absolute joy to be able to "let go" for the night!

    Just one small example: We realized a few days before the wedding that we did not have a challah (the bread eaten at a Jewish wedding). I emailed Melissa to see if she could check if the caterer would bring one. She wrote back that she would get in touch with the caterer, but if they did not provide one, she would go to Whole Foods and buy one. This is but one example (of many) of her helpfulness.

    We just got married yesterday (11/2), but it was important to us to write this review today before we left on our Honeymoon. Our wedding party and our parents found her and Nicole (her assistant at our wedding) to be a complete delight, and many commented on how fantastic both of them were.

    Hire her!

    Thank goodness for Melissa! We hired her to be our day-of coordinator, and I'm so, so glad we did. She's just such a great person to have on your team! All through the planning process, she was a total professional. She helped us to figure out where it was most important to focus our efforts in planning. She also recommended wonderful people to us for other services. And on the day of the wedding, she was completely unflappable! It made the day of the wedding so easy, because Melissa kept everything running so smoothly. I've heard stories about wedding planners who encouraged couples to spend more money on everything, but Melissa seemed to do the opposite. She's been to enough weddings to know what is important and what isn't, and she really discouraged us from spending more than we needed to on anything. Thank you, Melissa!
