Working with Taryn is always a pleasure. Her attention to detail, clear communication, and calm presence make every event run seamlessly from start to finish. She is incredibly organized, proactive with timelines, and ensures all vendors are aligned well in advance, which makes our job as a rental company smooth and efficient. We always look forward to collaborating with her and highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding. -

I don’t even know where to begin. We were extremely fortunate to have been referred to Blake Events by a local wedding venue in our town. I think their exact words were something like, “We’re considering narrowing the list of planners we’re willing to work with, and if we could only work with Taryn and her team, we’d be thrilled.” That was all I needed to hear to schedule a call — and after our very first meeting with Taryn, I knew we didn’t need to meet with anyone else.
One of my biggest initial concerns was that we had chosen a brand-new venue that hadn’t yet hosted a wedding at the time we signed our contract. Taryn immediately put me at ease. Not only does she have extensive experience working with new venues, but she’s also incredibly skilled at anticipating needs we hadn’t even thought of and advocating for us during the contract phase with both the venue and our vendors.
Throughout our year of planning, Taryn and Logan kept us organized, on track, and stress-free. Nearly every vendor we worked with came from their recommendations — and every single one of them far exceeded our expectations. Taryn and her team walked the perfect line between listening to what we wanted and offering their professional insight when asked, and their suggestions were always spot on.
While we were consistently impressed by Taryn’s responsiveness, organization, and attention to detail during the planning process, the real magic happened over our wedding weekend. The Blake Events team were absolute rockstars. They thought of every detail, kept everyone gently on schedule, and somehow managed to anticipate every need before we even voiced it. Thanks to them, our day was seamless, joyful, and truly perfect in every way.
We can’t recommend Taryn and her team highly enough — We love them so much we've been shouting it from the rooftops and already referred them to one of my closest friends who hired them for their wedding in June. Blake Events is truly the best gift you can give yourself if you are planning a wedding. If you are looking for a wedding planner in the PA/MD area, or anywhere, really- DO IT!!!! They are worth their weight in gold. -

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Samantha at Blake Events! From the very first meeting to the final moments of our wedding day, she was an absolute rockstar. Her attention to detail, calm demeanor, and true passion for what she does made the entire planning process not only stress-free, but genuinely enjoyable.
Samantha went above and beyond in every way — she anticipated needs before we even thought of them, handled logistics seamlessly, and made sure everything ran smoothly behind the scenes so we could fully enjoy our day. Her communication was always clear, timely, and reassuring, which made us feel so confident and cared for.
Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more, and we know that’s in large part thanks to Samantha. She’s incredibly organized, professional, and thoughtful — a true gem in the event planning world. If you’re lucky enough to work with her, you’re in amazing hands.
Thank you, Samantha, for making our day absolutely perfect!

Hire this team if you want your wedding day to be the most stress-free, beautiful, joyful day of your life!
When my now-husband and I first got engaged in February 2022, we immediately knew we had to book Blake Events. We saw firsthand how they brilliantly guided our dear friends through the planning process and executed an stress-free, flawless day, and wanted the very same for ourselves. Hands down, hiring Blake Events was the BEST choice we made in the planning process.
Over our 2.5 year engagement, Taryn read dozens of contracts for us, helped us revise our budget to meet our goals, told us the hard truths we needed to hear, and cheered on our every success. We felt heard and supported every step of the way during planning, and like we had a true advocate in our corner!
On our wedding day, I didn’t feel an ounce of anxiety about logistics or how the day would unfold. The expertise and attitude Taryn and her team bring gave us the most priceless gift: being able to enjoy our day and each other, without a single other care in the world.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Taryn, Logan, and Katie. You’re forever part of our love story, and we wish we could get married everyday just to spend more time with you! -

We loved working with Daniele at Taryn Blake !!
Daniele at Taryn Blake was an absolute pro — calm under pressure, reassuring, thorough and patient — willing to go with our personal opinions and asks and with changes in plans along the way — and flexible and creative when issues arose in real time. She also had good concrete advice along the way for us. And throughout we felt like she was emotionally invested in our event — and happy to be there the day of. You cannot go wrong working with her ! -

Amélie Sent on 05/30/2024TBE: Turning Beautiful Events into Unforgettable Moments
I knew I wanted a wedding planner as soon as I got engaged. I am French and got married to an American, we live in NC and decided to get married in PA- the only wedding I ever attended was actually my own so needless to say I knew I needed help. I discovered Taryn on Instagram, she was explaining the difference between a venue coordinator and a day-of coordinator/wedding planner. I started following her and loved her honesty and humor about the whole thing. TBE became my non-negotiable there and then.
The whole process was such a breeze thanks to Taryn, and then Daniele our rockstar/wedding counselor/coach and guru. We decided to pick the Partial Planning package because we had a long engagement and knew we needed help in the long run to plan our day. Having access to Daniele unlimited times was also extremely helpful.
Now why should you hire TBE? It's quite simple: They are leaders in their field, for the peace of mind, knowing you have someone in your corner at all times, responsiveness (I'm not sure Daniele ever sleeps haha), professionals who are on top of everything, who know what they're talking about and can recommend amazing vendors in your budget!
Daniele kindly guided us through the wedding maze, helping us to always think one step ahead so we wouldn't have any issue on our wedding day. We literally couldn't have done it without her because of the many vendors we decided to hire and all the coordination that required. Our wedding day was magical, and it is in big part thanks to her and Shannen's work. We loved having their calm, firm and smiling presence throughout the day.
We can't thank them enough.
It's bittersweet to say goodbye now that it's all over, that's how much of an impact TBE and Daniele had on us.
Merci! -

Taryn was the wedding planner for a friends wedding, so when it came to be my turn I knew exactly who to go to for a flawless wedding planning experience. From start to finish, she was incredibly professional, organized, and dedicated to making our wedding everything we dreamed of.
As a bride who dreaded the planning experience, Taryn was always available to answer my questions and provide guidance, often responding within MINUTES. Her dedication, expertise and experience was evident in every detail she helped us with.
On the day of the wedding, Taryn, Emma, and Brandi executed flawlessly. Every aspect of the event was coordinated to perfection, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. From coordinating vendors to managing the timeline, they ensured that everything ran smoothly.
If you're looking for a wedding planner who is not only talented and professional but also genuinely cares about making your day special, we highly recommend Taryn Blake Events. -

God’s Gift to Weddings
Taryn and her team are the sole reason why I was able to keep my sanity through wedding planning…my only regret is not hiring her earlier! She helped us save money and stick to our budget, recommended vendors that fit our style perfectly, and helped us make decisions confidently. On the day of our wedding, Taryn and Emma made sure everything went off without a hitch. They solved problems before I even knew they existed and allowed us to really enjoy the day and live in the moment. Emma even sewed the straps onto my dress more than once. I can’t recommend TBE enough! -

If you're debating whether or not you need a wedding planner, trust me, you do. More specifically, you need TBE and Daniele as your planning lead. Despite having some major, unexpected life events come up during our two years of wedding planning, Daniele never let anything fall through the cracks or get to the point where we needed to rush major decisions. She curated pre-vetted vendor lists to our exact preferences which made that part of the process fun and easy. However, nothing stood out more than her dedication leading up to the wedding and her commitment day of. She not only coordinated with all of our vendors, but also took the time to meet with our moms to go over day of details and get everyone on the same page. She hopped on the phone with all of us again to discuss our rain plan the week of the wedding. The plan worked so well that most of our guests didn't even realize they were experiencing the rain plan. The day of was incredibly smooth and we were able to relax and enjoy knowing that Daniele and her team had everything covered. My husband and I are both pretty type A and prone to worrying and the fact that were both calm and confident was amazing to our friends and family. We both 100% chalked that up to the diligence and attention to detail of Daniele and the TBE team. We could not recommend TBE and specifically Daniele more emphatically. Hire them immediately! -

Alicia Sent on 10/15/2023Highly Recommend!
First I will say, we were a bit hesitant about hiring a planner, thinking we could manage everything ourselves, but now that it's all over, we are SO happy we chose TBE. No matter how organized you are or how much you plan leading up to your wedding, there are a lot of logistics that happen day of and without Daniele and Emma, our friends or family would have been running around to ensure everything was perfect instead of spending those moments with us.
Their dedication to ensuring every detail of our wedding was impeccable did not go unnoticed. From our initial meetings to the final moments of the ceremony, their expertise was very evident. We are in awe of how seamlessly they orchestrated the entire event, ensuring that the atmosphere was filled with love and joy despite unexpected pouring rain. Their quick thinking and willingness to make last minute changes due to the rain turned what could have been a logistical nightmare (and maybe it was but they're just so amazing we didn't see it!) into an unforgettable experience for us and our guests.
Their biggest gift to us was just letting us (and our families) be present and enjoy the day and for that we are immensely grateful. -

Olivia Sent on 09/23/2023The TBE team is an absolutely must have
I felt as if I was in a different bride category. I did NOT enjoy wedding planning, gathering vendor info, any of that jazz… in comes TBE. Lolly and I had a phone call to discuss details as we got closer to our wedding and I nearly cried tears of joy. She literally took every single piece of information that was causing me stress during the last 90 days off my plate completely. I never had to speak to another vendor or plan out another detail. Then wedding day comes and it was relaxed and seamless as hell.
Even if you are someone who loves wedding planning (could not be me lol) I highly recommend day-of coordinator services at the very least.
I quite literally could not have made it without Lolly or the TBE team. -

The absolute BEST day
I have no idea where to even start. Taryn was THE LITERAL BEST. I am such a type A person and pretty much knew exactly what I wanted when I started my planning process, but hiring her was the best thing I did for my wedding. She was there each step of the way to bounce ideas off of because she knows what works on a wedding day and what doesn’t. 3 months out she came in and literally made all my stress go away. The walkthrough was seamless, I had a list of questions but I didn’t even have to ask because she had literally thought of EVERYTHING.
Day off was the best day of my life. I didn’t have to worry about a single things because she and Deb were there handling it all. She was the queen of plan B’s on my day due to some venue issues, but I didn’t even notice because everything ran as smooth as butter.
It was such a blessing to be able to enjoy my day and know I didn’t have to worry about anything.
If you are on the fence about hiring a planner or even Taryn and her team, don’t wait. It was literally the best investment I made on my wedding day for me, my friends, and my family.

Cristina Sent on 02/02/2023The BEST decision you will ever make!
It's been a few months since our wedding and I've finally been able to sit down and work through the reviews for our stellar vendor team. To this day, I still think about how glad I am that I chose Taryn Blake Events for our wedding. Without a shadow of a doubt, the best decision we made throughout our wedding planning process was hiring TBE for their partial planning package.
Daniele was the true MVP of our wedding by making sure everything ran smoothly, even going as far to personally save the day when a groomsman forgot his shirt. She made sure everything was set up flawlessly and that everything ran on time. Daniele truly made sure our day was stress-free and for that I am forever grateful. Our wedding would not have been what it was without her! I am so appreciative of Daniele for her guidance and advice as we planned our wedding. Our check-in calls were truly something that I looked forward to - Daniele kept us on track and was incredibly organized. It felt like I emailed or texted Daniele a million times and she responded to every single one super quickly. Moreover, Daniele provided much needed support and advocated for us when issues popped up. It felt like she was always on our side when we needed her most.
Hiring TBE was hands down THE BEST decision we made. As someone who wanted to plan a big part of their wedding, I cannot stress enough the importance of having someone like TBE to double check things, offer insight, and be there through every step of the way. Their expertise is worth every penny and more. Thank you TBE and Daniele for making our wedding our happily ever after!!! We are SO thankful for you! -

Rachel Sent on 01/19/2023Don't hesitate to hire TBE!
Hiring Taryn Blake Events (TBE) was the single best wedding-related decision I made. I knew that I COULD plan a wedding without help, but I also knew I WOULD drive myself crazy if I tried to attempt it. We wanted a planner that understood our aesthetic and wouldn’t push us in a direction we didn’t want. We found exactly what we needed in TBE.
Taryn stepped in for full planning services after we had a date and a venue and took it from there. She and Daniele provided white-glove service from start to finish. Taryn knew exactly what kind of vendors would work for us and made the decision-making process easy because I knew every vendor suggested were tried and true from her years of wedding planning experience. She took our crazy idea of incorporating Marvel characters into our décor and made it work seamlessly with our desire for lots of color and tons of florals and reassured me it would all come together even when I was worried it was too much.
Daniele was a delight to work with on the travel, rehearsal dinner and after wedding events. Her responsiveness, ability to pivot when things weren’t going as planned and commitment to making our weekend the best made my life so much easier.
I am not exaggerating when I say that whenever someone would ask me if I was nervous about the wedding, my instant response was “Nope. I’ve hired THE BEST wedding planner and I know she’s got it all handled.” I never once worried about a vendor or venue related detail during planning or on the wedding day. Taryn and Daniele took care of every tiny thing, including hanging a neon sign during our ceremony in perfect silence when the original idea didn’t work, giving my husband double-stick tape for his yarmulke and fixing my bustle (three times!). I have no doubt there were other things that popped up that day, but we never knew about them, and our wedding day was a beautiful reflection of who we are as a couple thanks to their passion and commitment.

I am so happy that I met Taryn at Behind the Bash because she was quite literally my saving grace through the entire process of wedding planning and the day of. She is absolutely amazing and so organized! I had the pleasure of having Taryn herself on my wedding day, along with Shea, and Brittany and let me just tell you, I really couldn't have done it without them. I was able to completely relax knowing that Taryn and her team had it all under control. They think of everything and are so prepared for any situation. Taryn's team is the best of the best and went above and beyond from start to finish. I will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart for them. My day was so magical and everything I could have ever wanted. Trust me, you want TBE on your big day! -

Darby Sent on 12/10/2022Would hire 1000 times over again
Hiring Taryn was the best decision we made for our wedding. From following her on instagram, we knew we wanted her as our coordinator before we even had a venue. We literally revolved our wedding date around her availability and would do it again in a heartbeat. We’ve been to weddings since our own and the amount of stress put on the couple and their wedding parties and families makes us so sad because we literally had ZERO stress the day of our wedding thanks to Taryn. If anything went wrong we still have no idea about it to this day. Our wedding parties and guests all said it was the most organized wedding they had ever been to and had such an easy flow from event to event. Taryn took care of everything from insane scheduling to helping me decide on bridesmaid dress colors, she was there and always super responsive. Not to mention she’s also just a fun af human and totally got our sense of humor and party personalities. When we say our wedding day was flawless, it truly was and that was all thanks to Taryn. There aren’t words for how valuable she is. -

We got our day of coordinator from TBE via our venue. It was included in our booking and it was the best thing that could have happen to us. I didn’t know if I was going to have one originally but after having Risa to help me through everything I don’t know how our day would have went so wonderfully without her. Even my husband said he could not believe how on top of everything she was. Every time we turned around at our wedding she was checking to make sure we were good and happy and it truly made us feel so special. She helped me plan and a schedule things I never would have thought about. Without Risa our planner our day never would have turned out so smooth and perfect. -

Two words: HIRE. TARYN.
Taryn was one of the first vendors we booked and let me tell ya, it was by far the best decision we made throughout the planning process! We got engaged in 2018 and planned for a 2020 wedding (jokes on us). When the time came to reschedule our wedding Taryn had it done in hours with confirmation and updated contracts from all of our vendors.
When the wedding *finally* came, it couldn’t have gone smoother. ANYTHING we needed that day was in front of us in seconds. If there were any complications, and I'm sure there were, we didn’t know about them. Not one person asked us about logistics, schedule, or preferences - we got to focus entirely on my family, friends, and (most importantly!) each other. Taryn’s team brought such incredible peace of mind AND immaculate vibes.
It was made so clear to everyone involved in our wedding how vital Taryn was. Just from working with her that day two of my bridesmaids, my decor vendor, and a close friend all hired her for their weddings! She is worth way more than she charges. And I’ll repeat: HIRE TARYN! -

I want to start this review by saying that you are crazy to not higher a planner for your wedding. Even if you are the most organized person, there are so many small details and behind the scene things taking place that you as the bride dont want to even think about on your day! HIRE TBE and let them remove absolutely all stressors from you!!
My assigned planner was Daniele. She was absolutely amazing!!! Daniele answered emails so quickly and answered my endless questions/concerns daily. Daniele found out about a festival/street closures days leading up to the wedding and was on top of alerting vendors, etc which we would not have known about otherwise. On the actual wedding day, the day went flawless and I have the team to thank. I did not have my phone on me at all and just knew they were near by if I needed anything at all. I would recommend TBE again and again! -

We couldn't have planned our wedding without her. I was in touch with her for two years planning my daughters wedding as was my daughter. Taryn always answered an inquiry within 24 hours. She helped us pick the "dream team" for every aspect of the event. She provided lots of choices of vendors and on the day of the wedding her help was invaluable. As we grew closer to the wedding and our stress levels increased she stepped in took charge of every detail. I highly recommend her and her team. -

Go hire TBE yesterday
I ended up booking TBE as one of my last vendors, as I was starting to think I might need a day of coordinator in addition to our venue coordinator. Let me tell you my only wedding regret was not booking her team sooner! I worked with Deb as my lead planner who was a sweetheart and amazing help from the start. I learned so much about planning a wedding from Taryn’s instagram alone, and truly felt I would have been scrambling without them. I got SO many comments on the day of our wedding (when it was pouring down rain and cold mind you) that I was the most calm bride ever. I owe this to Deb and Shea, who I knew had everything covered and I could focus on the most important thing: marrying my best friend and having fun! 15/10 recommend booking them at MINIMUM for day of services, but if you truly want a hands free experience (and if I could do it again) I would go all in on full service planning. -

Jeffrey Sent on 01/07/2022I will scream it from the mountaintops: “Stop Looking Around, Hire TBE!!”
I have sat on this review for quite some time now, trying to find the right words to express how grateful my husband and I are that we got the opportunity to work with TBE, Taryn, Daniele, and Deb. We met Taryn and Deb at my best friend’s wedding I was officiating in 2018, a few months after our engagement, and within minutes of chatting with both, I had already given my fiance the look saying “Oh yeah we’re hiring them.” Within a week or so we had found a date they had open in November 2020 and chose the month-out package. And that was how we lucked into hiring TBE – no lengthy discussions, didn’t even explore*any* other options (which in hindsight is insane!) but we knew it was the right choice, just from seeing how smoothly my friend’s wedding went and in seeing how passionate and good Taryn and Deb were at this.
Fast forward through Covid and a rescheduled wedding into 2021, and I am in awe with how smooth the whole planning/executing of a wedding is to TBE. Did I have anxious moments/mounting stress in trying to make a destination wedding in New Orleans happen in the middle of a pandemic? You bet. But TBE was there with us every step of the way – any question I had I knew I could direct their way, anytime I just needed to hop on the phone with Taryn to talk me through things I didn’t understand, she made herself available, even outside of the month where they took over the planning. As the planning was handed off to Daniele and Taryn, we pretty much had nothing to do but wrap up seating charts and music. We heard almost nothing from vendors in terms of where/when/what, all of that was handled by TBE behind the scenes, which we absolutely appreciated.
Day of the wedding, and Taryn and Deb have the entire night handled. One of our friends in the wedding party had a broken zipper on the back of her dress, so Deb took her aside and sewed her into her dress – can we just talk about how amazing that is? Without that quick save, that’s pretty much a dealbreaker on our friend being in her dress and enjoying her night. My husband’s and my boutonnieres both were mixed up and came as shirt pocket inserts (we didn’t have shirt pockets), so in comes Taryn with the quick fix to cut off the insert and pin them. Not only were they fixing the unexpected things, but everything was planned to the minute. We were married on the rooftop, across from a gorgeous church clock tower, with the ceremony beginning at 7. That clock tower chimed 7 and the ceremony started on time – it might not sound like a huge feat, but I can’t count the number of guests that told me about this moment and how it struck them they’d never been to a wedding where things ran *on time*.
Truly the only regret we have in hiring TBE is that we did not hire them full time for planning. If you have made it this far and are still unconvinced, let me spell it out more plainly – “I would go back in time and give Taryn, Daniele, and Deb MORE MONEY to plan our wedding because they are worth it. EVERY PENNY.” Seriously, hire them, and if you’re on the fence about how long to hire them for, I promise you that the money you invest into TBE will be paid back tenfold in the removal of stress, headaches, anxieties, by letting them do what they are so amazing at doing. We are so grateful to have them be a part of our day and truly cherish those memories. Now quit dragging your feet – GO.

Deb and Taryn Blake Events were amazing to work with. Originally, I was not planning to include a planner or coordinator for our wedding, but working with Deb was one of the key reasons that we actually got to relax and fully enjoy our wedding day. Deb was responsive, professional, and organized during our planning and on our wedding day. Not worrying about a single logistical thing on our wedding day is something I valued so much day of, but also now when I reflect on our day. I consider myself a planner/organizer in general so if you are similar and on the fence about working with a planner or TBE - do it! It will be 100% worth it.

If I could type this whole review in all caps without it being obnoxious, I would. But I’ll just say this: HIRING TBE WAS THE BEST WEDDING DECISION WE MADE. PERIOD. Having to postpone and gaining an entire extra year to plan and obsess over everything can make you go a little crazy, in good ways and bad. Taryn and Daniele helped me embrace the good-crazy “Let’s make this party even more epic” ideas and reeled in any of my bad-crazy “Am I overthinking this?” moments. As a super-visual creative person, a little fear can creep up inside when having to let go and hand over control, but I never doubted Taryn and Daniele and they flawlessly executed every. single. detail. (and trust me, there were A LOT). I won’t downplay it, this wedding was ~extra~. They fully supported our nontraditional vision and never flinched at all the specifics that were thrown their way to accommodate. Our day lived up to literally EVERYTHING we ever dreamed of and so much more, it felt like a movie that we just want to replay over and over. From freakishly-fast email responses to therapist-like advice, these ladies truly bent over backwards for us – I don’t feel like I’ll ever be able to thank them enough. Their expertise and talents are unmatched and we are forever grateful.
If you want to look back at your wedding day and know you had the time of your life, able to be fully present with zero regrets, look no further than TBE – they are magical memory makers! -

You know when you get nervous about whether reviews are true or not? Well let me promise you that Taryn is worth every single penny and you would be crazy not to use her. Everything that could go wrong did the week before and during and Taryn handled everything so my anxiety ridden self could relax. She pulled strings that I didn't even know existed. I'm a virgo and love the planning process, but decided to go with her anyway. SO even if you can do the wedding on your own, she may be able to do things that you couldn't because she knows her STUFF and got the connects. She's amazing and her team is incredible. Use her and don't look back! -

Fierce & Masterful Planning Team
I've worked in the event industry for over a decade and even planned weddings and social events for 2 years along with many of my friends' weddings. If my experience has taught me anything it's that it is VITAL to hire a professional planner for your wedding day! It wasn't even up for debate. As many couples during COVID had to do, we postponed our wedding and totally changed our plans. We had originally planned on a small family wedding in my parent's backyard in PA and a larger, more laid-back, festival-style, bash in OR the following year. We had spoken to another planner just weeks before the pandemic began, but didn't make any decisions, so when we decided to postpone we took a few months off altogether. When we made the decision to begin planning again we realized that our 12 year anniversary fell on a Saturday in 2021; however, that was Labor Day weekend which I knew was one of the most coveted weekends on the wedding calendar. We had just booked our photographer but were becoming nervous that other vendors wouldn't be available on our date. Kylee B recommended TBE and praised her for her "get shit done" attitude. As someone who struggles with making decisions for myself, this was a quality I desperately needed. To my surprise, Taryn still had a lead planner available on our date and set up a call for the following day. She immediately made me feel supported and understood, and I instantly knew that she would be able to carry my vision to fruition. Plus, I needed someone who was comfortable telling me to NOT do everything by myself and who was honest and confidant. I was thrilled at the TBE package options and it was comforting to know just how much extra assistance the Coordination package included. Deb was there for us every step of the way and was always willing to answer questions, give us guidance during difficult situations, and offer fantastic suggestions - all while upholding the integrity of my eclectic vision. Deb and Taryn met us at my parent's house to help map out the layout and dial in the timeline which was a pivotal moment in calming our nerves. Planning a wedding from across the country is extremely difficult, but Deb kept me on schedule and gave me confidence in my decisions. Having her coordinate vendors' schedules was a MASSIVE help because it allowed me to focus on the design and DIY touches I was - not surprisingly - trying to finalize down to the very last minute. When there was an unfortunate mishap with our dishware she took charge and handled the difficult conversations for me, allowing me to finish my nail appointment and cut my own flowers - something she knew was extremely important to me. On wedding day she and Taryn took the items I hadn't been able to set out and executed my vision marvelously - even when, unbeknownst to me, Deb had an accident and made a quick trip to the ER IN THE MIDDLE OF SET UP! She is seriously so badass! Though I felt terrible for her, it was so nice to see her smiling and joking with my friends and family while she worked to get us down the aisle. I can't thank you enough for your kindness. Taryn even cut and glued my husband into his cufflinks as his shirt didn't have holes for them! Risa took excellent care of us the rest of the evening by keeping us on schedule, bustling my dress - of which had 25 bustle points! - with my photographers, and making sure we were never without a drink or a bathroom break. TBE is a powerhouse of a team. These women are fierce, smart, and fun. It's no surprise that they are booking out to 2023 and 2024, so make sure to reach out ASAP! -

From the little things (like picking up lunch and pinning on boutonnières) to the big ones (like tracking down MIA vendors, setting up decorations and making schedule magic)—Taryn handled everything on our wedding day so we were able to be present and truly enjoy it! Seriously, if being stress-free on your big day is even a little important to you—hire the TBE team, you won’t regret it. We’re so grateful for everything you did for us, Taryn, Deb, Daniele & Bella. THANK YOU! -

Ashley Sent on 09/13/2021Absolutely AMAZING!!
Taryn and her team were amazing, on our wedding day we had Taryn as our lead planner and Deb as the assistant planner. My husband and family all thought a wedding planner was not needed but after they met Taryn and saw all she did they all agreed that she was the most essential and needed vendor on our special day. She was always willing to help us when we had questions and was very timely in her responses. We also loved the documents she had on her portal for us to use, we were able to find a list of vendors that she recommended and we chose to use on our wedding day. She also is very organized and has checklists to help ensure that all things are covered. Leading up to the wedding, Taryn created a timeline for us as well as contacted all our vendors, she even wrote to them to reach out to her with questions instead of us so we could enjoy this time before our wedding. We really felt at ease with her in charge, we got to enjoy the weeks leading up to our wedding without having to schedule the drop off times, etc. The amount you pay also includes Taryn at the rehearsal and a final walk through at the venue with her. The final walk through helped ease my mind as she made sure we had all the rentals, linens, and any other small detail we could think of. She really should raise her prices, because her services are worth so much more!! She took care of it all, as for the day of my mother, wedding party, and other family members could really enjoy the day. Her team took care of all the decorating and had things exactly how I wanted it. It was amazing to be able to enjoy the day with everyone instead of stressing about decorating the space. If any small issue would arise she would ask us or our parents what we wanted to do and would quickly find a solution. While we were dancing, I ended up wanting to not do our send off so we had more time to dance. I had previously bought over 200 glowsticks for the send off, Taryn quickly improvised and handed them out to guests to use on the dance floor. These were such a hit and I'm glad we were able to still get use out of them. Deb the assistant planner was also lovely, she spent more time with the men and my husband raved about how cool and helpful she was. She helped all the men with their pocket squares and with any questions they had. It was so nice to have everything all ready and packed up at the end of the night for us. We really did not have to lift a finger and TBE made our day so enjoyable and stress free. I cannot recommend her or her team enough. They are a must have for you big DAY!!! They were our favorite and most essential vendor especially for a type A bride who had high expectations as well as many decorations and rentals to be moved and repurposed. They exceeded all our dreams!! Thank you TBE Team!! -

Taryn and her team are the absolute best at what they do. As a wedding photographer who's worked with the TBE team before on other couple's weddings, when my fiancé and I decided to plan our micro-wedding with three months notice I knew I immediately needed to hire their team.
Taryn's expertise, vendor connections, eye for design, and ability to bring your vision to life is unmatched. The lady knows everything there is to know about wedding planning, and has multiple back up options ready to go at a moment's notice.
She's at the top of the vendor recommendations list I send to all my couples, and I can only hope everyone hires her to make their planning worlds easier. -

Taryn and Deb… We LOVED working with this incredible team. They maintain strong connections in the industry and make acquiring vendors much easier. All of our vendors spoke about them as if they were family, and we can certainly see why!
Deb is incredibly personable and down to earth; she was our dream wedding guru. She reminded us to have fun throughout the process and easily kept us on track.. She was easily accessible via call whenever we had questions, concerns, or ideas. When we went through our initial vision board, she found many of the exact items that we had shown her and built upon our vision to take it to the next level. We are also incredibly grateful to Taryn for putting asks out to amazing hair and makeup when we forgot a month out!
When the big day came we had nothing to worry about. Deb took care of everything without putting any of the burden on us. She coordinated vendor setup and triple checked that every detail was perfect so we didn’t have to worry. She also helped take care of anything that came up as needed, such as helping with faulty bridesmaid dresses and being sure that we actually had time to eat and take a moment together to enjoy the day.
Our wedding was an elegant and truly enjoyable DREAM thanks to this team. We would highly recommend Taryn Blake Events to anyone who is looking for a high style, low stress day.

Caitlin Sent on 10/21/2020Taryn made our day magical- could not have done it without her and TBE!
Where do I begin? Taryn's services were worth every penny even before experiencing the (immense) value they provided for the actual day of coordination. Taryn was there when I needed help navigating vendors, my dress regret, and my design indecision. She always had great recommendations and guidance, validation my feelings and anxieties (planning a wedding during COVID brought up a LOT of those!). She was an INVALUABLE resource countless times in the planning process. I don't know how to express my gratitude for all the emails she promptly responded to, jumping on the phone with me if I was in a panic, she was a godsend.
Fast forward to COVID hitting, and needing to figure out how to move forward. First we postponed, then we decided to move to my husband's parent's backyard. Taryn did a site visit with us, and had creative ideas that made the evening feel truly magical and one of a kind. (Dance floor made of vintage rugs nestled amongst the trees, candles along the walkways to make it all feel romantic and cohesive!)
On the day of my wedding, I had nothing to worry about. I had a porch full of boxes with candles and crystals, napkins, vases, hurricanes, etc. Taryn turned all of my stuff into pure magic. The wonderful part was that I KNEW she would produce magic, and I didn't even have to worry about it. I experienced zero anxiety about the transformation of the space, and then at the end of the night not having to worry about breaking it all down (Deb and Bri were masterful in carefully packing all of my stuff away!). I'm a bit anxious and particular--and a perfectionist person who obsessed over the aesthetics of the day--so the level of ease I experienced that day was foreign to me until I worked with Taryn. In addition- I didn't have to worry about directing people, coordinating things, and playing "host" since we were in a family home. There were some small snafus that were miscommunication issues between myself and a vendor- that Taryn's team handled gracefully and without a hiccup. If she wasn't there- I know I would have felt stress around this.
I could cry just recalling how perfect our wedding was because of Taryn and her team. I was worried my anxiety would keep me from feeling present with my loved ones on such a special day- and instead I felt so deeply present and truly felt nothing could go wrong. Thank You Taryn for that gift. Do not wait- book her and her wonderful team!!! -

Taryn and her team are absolutely wonderful. We were having a semi-destination wedding in Pennsylvania for November 2020. Taryn worked with us on design and coordinating vendors. She was a dream! We ended up cancelling our wedding, and lucked out because Taryn recommended getting wedding insurance. We're now having a local wedding, but we would hire Taryn again (multiple states away!) if she was available for our date! -

It's difficult to put into words how highly I recommend Taryn Blake Events. My husband and I were planning a wedding in Pennsylvania while living in Chicago. We had no idea where to begin. Taryn is a family friend so we thought we would reach out to her and luckily, TBE team was available on our date. With only 10 months to plan a wedding, Taryn and her team jumped on the opportunity and began helping right away. From having the best vendor recommendations to making sure everything was wrapped up after the wedding, TBE made our dream day come true! Taryn helped us select the best partners that had worked with our venue before - she was also willing and able to incorporate some of my Braizlian culture into the wedding. TBE did a great job of taking the ideas I had for our wedding and making them come to life way beyond our expectations! Taryn, provided us with a checklist of what we should do right up to our wedding day, and she also had an extremely detailed timeline for the day of which kept everyone on the same page.
Taylor, Taryn and Daniele all helped during our wedding day making sure the schedule went smoothly and we had nothing to stress over. I couldn’t believe how perfect every single detail was! Taryn Blake Events delivered us the perfect wedding! I couldn’t be more thankful for all they did for us! -

Taryn, Deb, and her team truly helped our wedding day run smoothly. I don't know how we would have gotten through the planning process without her! We hired her for the month of our wedding, but even before then her preferred vendor list really helped us out and her and Deb were amazing about answering all of our frequent questions. We didn't have to worry about vendor schedules or making sure all of the small details were taken care of because Deb and Taryn were on top of everything! They even found us a last minute table for our ceremony and helped ensure our furbaby was able to be a part of our big day! As a result of all of their help, we had the most perfect, beautiful wedding day. We both wish we could go back and do it all over again!! We can't recomment TBE enough!! -

Book TBE! If there is any doubt in your mind about hiring a wedding coordinator / planner, forget it and book TBE! They were available, what feels like at all times of the day, to answer all of our questions and erase all of our concerns. From the contracts to the scheduling and day of timing, the staff at TBE was incredible! Deb and Taylor were perfect for us on our wedding day; handling all of the setup and dealing with vendors / any issues that arose without missing a beat! The TBE staff quickly became more like friends helping us along the way versus a hired vendor. -

Megan Sent on 09/02/2019The BEST value for your money in the wedding planning process
Taryn was MY GIRL throughout my wedding planning process but especially in the final two months! I had the month-of coordination services with TBE and Taryn was a lifeline throughout my lengthy engagement. Here are a few examples of how incredible she was - from a year-plus from the wedding to the day of: A year out from the wedding we had some issues booking a hotel block. I asked Taryn what I should do - she advised that I cc her on emails and offered to jump in if there were issues. Simply including taryn’s name in emails and looping her into the conversation immediately whipped this hotel into gear and the issues disappeared; Taryn didn’t even have to intervene and it quickly became a non-issue. She also had never worked with this hotel specifically- Taryn is so good at her job that she can work with new venues, vendors etc and you would NEVER know. As I was figuring out decor and details for the reception, I had an idea for escort cards but wasn’t sure how to execute it. I emailed Taryn on a holiday weekend explaining my idea and asking for inspiration for how to make it happen. She responded so quickly with at least 4 different ideas... which led us to an answer about how to bring this vision to life! What was most impressive about Taryn was that at our month out meeting with our venue, she had a solution for EVERY potential conflict between me and the venue. Taryn’s experience, practicality and ability to read a room while fully standing in my corner was really incredible. She made sure that everything we wanted would be executed to perfection. She also knew answers to every single question asked about contracts — I was in awe! And when the venue told me that my floor plan was impossible to pull off, Taryn took over and worked some magic without missing a beat. Still don’t know how she figured it out! One of the big reasons we chose to hire an outside planner was to help with a fair amount of “schlepping” in both the setup, teardown and moving of decor from the church ceremony to the reception. Little did I know that TBE also offers to take ALL of the decor at the rehearsal the night before so that on the day of the wedding neither I, my husband or my family members had to worry about remembering to bring decor, booze, etc. this was such an unexpected surprise that was SO valuable. Of course on the day of the wedding Taryn and her team were absolute pros. Taryn was so calm yet she also kept spirits light and had me feeling good in the anxious moments before going down the aisle! What stands out the most during the cocktail hour/reception was during a very long string of family photos, I said (to no one, I thought) that I was really ready to drink! Literally a minute later a member of taryns team had a truly for me. Wow can we all be pampered like this every day??!! I knew TBE would be good but I didn’t realize how helpful they would be in SO many aspects. I was legit sad when Taryn left for the night, even though she left us in the extremely capable hands of her team! Speaking of her team - I couldn’t believe how many badass TBE chicks were there the day of my wedding for the price that I paid (3-4 I believe). TBE was so easily worth the money. I would have given up a lot to make sure I could hire them. Two months after the smoothest and most fun day, I am still having Taryn withdrawal!! We highly & wholeheartedly recommend TBE. -

Life saver
TBE is the best in the business! Honestly, create space in your budget for them! After feeling overwhelmed, I made a last minute decision to no longer do ANY planning... in hindsight, all I had done was choose colors and vendors and it felt like there were still 1594 things left to do.
With 4 month notice, Taryn was able to execute our vibe, pull together an entire design board (which she emailed me 24 hours after we met), she created a DETAILED timeline so even though I didn’t have anything to do with planning I was still in the know, and she was available to bring me back to Earth when I had questions. She made me look forward to my wedding again!
The day of our wedding, Deb was there bright and early setting up and Taryn was at our reception location setting up! All we had to do was sit back and get ready because everything was taken care of. Taylor ended the night with us and did all the tear down. We didn’t have to lift a finger. All I wanted to do was get married and have fun, and that’s honestly what I did. Everything was perfect thanks to this dream team!

Allison Sent on 07/18/2019Couldn’t Have Done It Without Her
Can’t say enough great things about TBE. The team we had working with us were amazing.
Jen was our decor contact and though it started rough (we didn’t have a clue what we wanted in terms of colors, themes, etc), she really shepherded us brought the process with a sense of humor and patience. She was always available when I needed to talk and it was nothing for her to spend time on the phone with me (different locations) to go over things until I was comfortable. Her suggestions and ideas were so creative and really made our decor eclectic, but coordinated. It was beautiful.
Tayrn was an absolute dream to work with. She made wedding planning as stress-free as it possibly could be. She was there at every step and not only found vendors, but also then coordinated the contracts and payments as well. She is also incredibly responsive whenever we had a question or a comment. Her contacts in the industry are incredible and we ended up with a dream team of vendors all because of her!
I loved working with Tayrn and her team. They go above and beyond (case in point, there was a furniture delivery snafu on the wedding day and Tayrn and her team were actually rushing around to help unload and set up the furniture that was late. I don’t have full details, but I know they handled it smoothly and without stress to me!) One of my favorite parts was two weeks before, she emailed all the vendors and told them to basically leave Mark and I alone and to contact her with any questions! It was THE BEST!!
I can not recommend TBE enough. We couldn’t have had the wedding we did without them. As two people with very demanding jobs, we wouldn’t have had the time to research vendors, organize contracts and keep payments straight. We had our dream day all because of Tayrn. I would absolutely work with them again!! -

Where do I even start! I can not say enough good things about Daniele. She made me feel like everything was under control after our first meeting. She is extremely confident and responsive. She was super accommodating to our schedules and blew me away with her organizational skills. I originally didn’t think we would need a wedding coordinator, but boy was I wrong. She took care of everything and made me feel so much more relaxed. Everyone kept telling me I seemed so calm and I kept telling them that I am so confident in my planner and our vendors that I know I don’t have anything to worry about! I don’t know what we would have done without her. An hour before our outdoor ceremony it down-poured and they had to move the whole ceremony to a different location. She felt so bad but I had no doubt it would be just as perfect and that she and her team would take care of everything. I actually don’t know what I would have done without her and her team for that. It would have been a mess and I would have been a bigger mess. I am forever grateful for Daniele and her team for making our wedding day the most perfect day. I can’t thank them enough! -

Melissa Sent on 12/07/2018Organized! On point! Couldn’t pull it off without TBE!
Ever since Taryn and I first spoke on the phone, I knew I was in good hands. We hired TBE as a day of coordinator, and we got much more than that! From the pre-wedding organization to the day of execution, Taryn and staff helped us execute a flawless wedding day.
After speaking with Taryn on the phone several times, I couldn’t wait to meet her in person. Our wedding was in November and I had so many concerns regarding the potential weather forecast to our first dance. She reassured me we were in good hands. But I didn’t realize just how good of hands we were in until we first met at our venue, the Barn at Grimmel Farms. After meeting with Taryn on site and showing her my vision on decor and the flow of the night, the event coordinator from BGF, Kristen, pulled me aside and said, “I have never met someone so organized in my life. She’s amazing!” That’s when I knew we made the right choice.
My husband and I wanted to have a bit of a “different” wedding. Rather than having the traditional wedding events, we decided to change it up a bit, like being announced at cocktail hour with all of our loved ones standing around with a drink in hand. We wanted a fast paced first dance (American Country Love Song - Jake Owen) in the middle of everyone standing. I wanted a wine lounge for all the wise women to sip their wine and watch us youngsters tear up the dance floor. Taryn assured me she could help us pull off these ideas, and she did. We had vendors from all over whom had never worked together before, and Taryn communicated every request. From table rentals to the DJ to our caterer to the florist, she handled everything. Each vendor had a clear image of what the agenda would be, and they all enjoyed working with TBE.
I am forever grateful to Taryn and the TBE team for allowing myself, my husband, and my family to fully enjoy our wedding day. Without them, we wouldn’t have been able to soak it all in and enjoy every moment.
One last thing: right before I walked down the aisle with my father I was overcome with emotion. With my eyes filling up with tears, I was so full of excitement, nerves, love... I had to get it together. Taryn quickly pulled me aside and reminded me of what a special moment I was about to experience. “Look around at everyone as you walk down. See the faces of people who traveled near and far to be here today. If your eyes are full of tears you won’t be able to see all the smiling faces. Take your time and soak it in.” This has stuck with me since. I can still close my eyes and see that moment clear as day. Thank you Taryn for making the best day of my life the most unforgettable and flawless event! -

Words cannot do justice for how invaluable both Taryn and Jen were for Ben and I leading up to our wedding and on the day of. Ben and I both are currently living in Australia and decided to get married in my home state (PA). We were a bit nervous about planning a wedding from not only overseas but across the world. From the moment we spoke to Taryn, she instantly brought us out of a state of overwhelming panic and confusion.
Jen (décor planner) immediately got in contact with us and helped bring our pinterest board inspiration to life! During the planning process, Jen was extremely responsive through emails creating personalised checklists, provided a range of options for staying in our budget and was constantly sending through items that matched our décor guide. She made phone calls for us, was constantly in touch with us to remind us of things we needed to do and always made herself available for a chat or a meeting. Everything was so organised and we were SO excited to see our fairy-tale come to life on the day. It exceeded expectations.
As the date approached, Taryn saved us so much time and unnecessary stress that came with organising our big day. Our wedding was amazing… practically perfect. Taryn was there from the very beginning coordinating everyone and everything: Makeup, Hair, Celebrant, Caterer, Bar, DJ, florist, transport, furniture hire companies... not to mention setting up and packing up all the decor and coordinating 125 guests!!! Not only was Taryn extremely organised, she was a kind and fun person to have around on the day! I told her that it was like having another friend at the wedding 😊 She genuinely cared about making sure that we were calm, relaxed and happy throughout the day. She even went and bought the bridesmaids Dunkin Donuts!
If you are looking for someone to assist with planning your special day, I honestly cannot recommend TBE highly enough. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Tbe is everything
I took some time really planning out what I was going to write in this review because frankly Taryn Blake Events is EVERYTHING. My wedding truly would not have happened without Taryn, Jen and the whole TBE team. From the moment I had my first phone call with Taryn I knew she was the perfect person to help plan my wedding. She provided a detailed list of trusted vendors who had worked at my venue and gave constant guidance on who would fit my wedding vision. Speaking of wedding vision, we decided to also have Jen from TBE plan the decor for our wedding. Let me tell you, that was truly the best money we could have spent. Jen took my entire pinterest wedding brain and planned a vision board and decor that was exactly what I had pictured in my dreams. By the end of the planning process with Jen I would joke with people that she knew me better then my fiance did. Jen designed a true fall wonderland, she helped with everything from finding the perfect invitations to basically every single detail (including details I didn’t even know needed to be details). On the day of the wedding Taryn and Jen were QUEENS! There is really no other way to describe it. Taryn spent endless hours arranging and rearrange my schedule to help my vendors get exactly the amount of time they needed to make my perfect wedding vision come to life. When my belt broke during the first look photos they provided belt surgery in the Bridal cottage with glue, thread, and air conditioner drying service. Everyone on Taryn’s team was there for every single thing I could have needed usually before I even knew I needed it (including running back to the bridal cottage to get my sandals and then HELPING ME PUT THEM ON MY FEET). I truly cannot put into words how amazing Taryn and her team are! If you are thinking about booking them for your wedding and you are reading this review don’t wait… BOOK THEM RIGHT NOW (and go follow her on Instagram :) )! -

She was so helpful throughout the whole process and very knowledgeable. I was really grateful for how available she was as well, always returning emails and phone calls promptly and answering all the many questions I had. We went with the one month package and were thoroughly impressed with how much it included. The walkthrough of our venue a few months before the big day was hugely helpful. Jen took notes and made a layout of our floor plan including tons of details which made set up a breeze. She also is very creative and had a great eye for decorating and pulling everything together exactly how we wanted it.

I had a lot of ideas and it was so great to be able to get feedback and recommendations from Taryn throughout the planning process. She was always super responsive to emails and her encouragement and excitement for our day made us even more excited. She had great charts and documents that were really helpful for staying organized and making decisions for the wedding events throughout the day. Having her help with going over contracts and things like our invitations was so valuable. We used TBE for the Day of Coordination package. I really wanted the day of the wedding to go as smoothly as possible and be handled by a team that knows what they're doing, and I was not disappointed! TBE did a beautiful job taking all of the decor I brought and putting it together in a thoughtful way. Every step of the way, even with the inevitable anxiousness of the day for a bride, I felt taken care of and that I didn't have to think about the schedule or the details. When I got a little sauce on my dress during cocktail hour, Taryn was right there with a Tide pen to take care of it! Taryn is so friendly and down to earth.

Stella Sent on 11/30/2015Taryn was an absolute lifesaver for us during our planning process & wedding day. Our wedding was at a newer venue that experienced a bit of turnover during our year of planning, so it was extremely comforting to have Taryn on our side, who knew what our vision was from the beginning. I worry about everything, and Taryn was always there with a reassuring word, which was priceless. When we realized our original plan of an outdoor ceremony & cocktail hour would no longer be possible, due to an impending hurricane, Taryn made sure that our "Plan B" was just as, if not more perfect than our original plan. She totally took charge and she and Deb (and our amazing florist) created the most romantic and intimate indoor space I could have ever imagined. I am still getting compliments on how beautiful our wedding ceremony was. A few of the groomsmen commented that the staff at our venue was going to Taryn for direction by the middle of the day! Taryn truly makes the planning process less stressful, ESPECIALLY during the last month and day of. I was able to relax and take in my entire day, because I knew Taryn was in control.

She was so helpful throughout the planning process and helping me to think about things I wouldn't have even included. She was there for last minute decisions and set everything up for us beautifully. She helped me make a last minute decision on sides for a tent to prevent rain from falling on my guests which ended up being a great decision. I was told by several people that working with a planner/coordinator was the best decision I could make and it turned out everyone was right. It was a perfect day and I'm so happy I chose to work with Jennifer and Taryn Blake Events.
