Shellie truly went above and beyond what me and my husband could have ever expected! Like many brides, I started the planning journey on my own and it was going great, but quickly realized even with how organized I am, I needed someone to really bring my vision to life! Shellie listened to us, challenged us to really think about our plans and supported us from the day we signed the contract until our wedding day and after! Our entire wedding party was so impressed with her and couldn't give us enough compliments of how smoothly our day went. She is someone we consider a friend now and THAT is exactly why you should hire her. She will take the time to get to know you and your partner and build a trust like no other! Almost anyone can help you plan a wedding and be a "yes man", but she took above and beyond that! I have recommended her to every friend who has gotten engaged and wish every couple had a Shellie by their side. -

The best decision for your wedding day!
If you’re looking for a wedding planner who truly cares about the couples she works with (below is our story!), listens to their desires for how they envision their wedding day, and executes the day flawlessly, Shellie with Rel(EVENT) is the perfect planner for you! Working with her was the best decision we made for our original wedding plans, as well as our revised COVID wedding plans! Without hesitation, we would recommend her to anyone searching for a wedding planner who will make the experience as stress-free, organized, beautiful, and enjoyable as possible!
As we all know, 2020 hasn’t been going according to plan for many of us 2020 couples. My fiancé and I planned to get married surrounded by 170 family members and close friends before moving from Pennsylvania to Minnesota, where we both would be beginning new jobs. Like most COVID couples, our original plans for our early June wedding slowly over the course of the spring began to become less and less feasible, causing lots of stress, disappointments, and true sadness. What made it even more difficult was how to not feel selfish or alone in the situation, because COVID was clearly impacting so many other people around the world in various ways, many worse than having to postpone or cancel a wedding. Shellie checked up on us and me periodically to ensure that we were doing okay and provided as much virtual support as she possibly could have. She reached out to me right away when our local government announced that we would not be opening before our wedding date and began brainstorming with us. If it wasn’t for her calmness, positivity, and true gift for planning events, I don’t know what we would have done! She walked us through rescheduling our 6/6/2020 wedding to 6/5/2021 and in one month, she put together and organized our petite wedding that was still held on our original date. To say the day was better than we could have ever imagined is an understatement! It was perfect, special, and unique in every way and that is all thanks to Shellie! My fiancé and I originally planned that we were just going to do something quick in our parent’s backyard, but Shellie had a greater vision for us and it was really important to her that 6/6/2020 still remain the beautiful once in a lifetime day that we had been looking forward to for so long! She found us a new location (Lock Ridge Park in Alburtis, PA), organized the romantic, social- distanced décor, found us an amazing soloist, ordered our cake, and coordinated the timeline with everyone involved. We performed our self-uniting ceremony under the June sunset, surrounded by our parents, siblings, and grandparents (who were socially distanced in rings of rose petals). It was truly magical, filled with smiles, tears, and so much love! At the end of the day that’s what it is all about right?! We really cannot thank Shellie enough for taking our COVID lemons and helping us turn them into delicious lemonade! She took what was going to be such a sad day for us and turned it into the best day of our lives, one that we will be talking about forever! As much as we are looking forward to our rescheduled, larger event that Shellie has also been planning with us since 2018, we will always look at 6/6/2020 as our unforgettable wedding day! -

Shellie was a God-send to us in executing our wedding. Covid had us putting together our wedding last minute, and Shellie was able to jump in feet first without any hesitancy about 6 weeks before game day to help us do so. We went with an elegant-boho style, Moroccan inspired theme; micro wedding with just immediate family + virtual components. Amazing aesthetic and design eye, very knowledgeable about the industry, and a strong propensity for detail. Shellie helped us make our wedding day special, elegant and an expression of our uniqueness as a couple; and with the wedding being a hybrid virtual/in-person event, there was plenty of uniqueness to it that Shellie didn’t shy away from! Her experience and personable demeanor made her a great planner and day-of coordinator, helping with everything from food and set up to fixing my dress throughout the day. Thank you, Shellie! I’ll also note that she’s an animal lover, has a great heart and wasn’t shook by the many twists and turns that our wedding undoubtedly had.Rel(EVENT) Event Planning's reply:
Thank you Liz! Your wedding was a personal record for me with the short time frame you challenged me with, but you two made it so easy with your great eye, forethought and confidence in what your vision was! And most of all your confidence in what I could do for you! Thank you for being you and helping me find the ways to bring your relationship to a vision that I know was unique and so loaded with meaning. It truly was a wedding that inspired me!

Intimate Social Distancing Wedding
I am not a bride, but as the Mother of the Bride, I have to share what a huge lifesaver Shellie has been for our family. After 10 years together, my daughter and her fiance were planning their wedding for 2 years. Shellie was helping to guide them through the process, not forgetting any details. We had so many questions and Shellie was always there for support and guidance. When faced with the pandemic of Covid-19, our visions of this beautiful day in June was quickly disappearing. Shellie supported us through the whole process and was there the moment the decision was made to postpone. Since my daughter and her fiance were moving to start a life together in Minnesota from PA, the thought of waiting to get married was not in the plan. What were we going to do? The courthouses in the area where not even open. Shellie saved the day and in a few short weeks, she pulled together the most romantic and memorable day for us. In the midst of all the disappointments COVID was causing in the world around us we were able to celebrate them in the most beautiful way. Thank you rel(EVENT) Event Planning, we could not have done it without youRel(EVENT) Event Planning's reply:

In response to your very kind words, thank you. Thank you for entrusting me with Rae’s engagement season and the chaos of COVID and subsequent Petite Elite wedding. That day set the bar and started what I can only hope will be more meaningful wedding days in the future. It was a really good day filled with a lotta love and next year will be a great celebration!!!! I cannot wait! I may even dance.....maybe. -

Shellie and her team elevated our wedding day in every way imaginable! Before the wedding day, Shellie was there for us & helped us with decisions we couldn't make. She is super creative & made a beautiful seating chart and filled in anywhere decor was needed. On the day of, Shellie & her team anticipated our needs, knew our parents/wedding parties names, and were there for us whenever we needed them! My bustle broke, Shellie fixed it in minutes! They helped pack up everything so we could ride away in wedded bliss. We couldn't recommend them more!
