  Married In a Hurricane; My Day Turned Out Stress Free Thanks to Emily's Team

  I used the Event Coordinating and Floral/Design Coordinating Services by 'The Main Event by Emily'. I was referred to Emily's team by a friend who used them for her wedding last year. Emily and her team are very passionate about what they do. I really didn't know what questions to ask in the planning phase, but they knew all the questions and made me feel like I wasn't missing any important items. Emily also had a plethora of decor for any desired style so I didn't have to buy the decor myself. She also provided my photobooth backdrop, complete with a vintage sofa and chair which everyone loved. The weekend of the wedding, Hurricane Ian was going to roll through and Ashley S., my coordinator, worked with all of my vendors when we had to change venues. The day of the wedding actually turned out very stress free for me. Emily's team set up at my ceremony location and reception location, and Ashley was right there beside me and working in the background with her assistant, making sure everything was going smoothly all day. She helped coordinate the ceremony rehearsal the night before, formal photos, and even coordinated the packing up of our car so at the end of the reception, we were able to leave for our hotel with everything we needed for the weekend away! :) I definitely recommend them for any bride looking for a personalized experience.

  Nothing short of perfect!!!

  I decided to book a coordinator and designer through The Main Event by Emily and it was 1000% the best decision I could have made. I worked mostly with Ashley G. and Emily. These ladies pay attention to all details, even the ones you don’t think of. They worked with me to not only bring the vision I had for my wedding to life, but to also ensure my wedding day was seamless and smooth. I cannot express how worth it is. Seriously, if you are doubting it, it’s WORTH IT! I’m extremely grateful to have had the pleasure of working with these ladies. My big day was perfect! 10.1.22

  Worth every penny!

  I can’t say enough how great Emily and her team are!! They made sure my day was flawless and kept all of the stress off me. My coordinators and design team were all so great - they were so professional but also so easy to get along with and fun. They did such an amazing job with all of my flowers and decor; I told them my vision and they really made it come to life. Can’t recommend them highly enough!!

  Absolutely perfect

  We hired Emily and her team for coordination and decor and I mean everything was PERFECT. The floral designs were absolutely gorgeous. Ashley was our lead coordinator and she was amazing. She stayed on top of everything including me 😅 Our day went so smoothly I couldn't have asked for a better team. Thank you ladies sooo much. You made our day a dream come true 💙💚

  Simply Amazing!

  The Main Event by Emily made our wedding event so easy and stress free. When my daughter got engaged it was very important to me to be able to enjoy her day and be hands off and that is exactly what I got with The Main Event by Emily! From the very beginning our planner was on top of the smallest details. She listened and took care of the big things but also managed such detail to the smallest of things as well. The flowers and decorating were more beautiful that I could have imagined. I would highly recommend them for any event. I honestly believe my daughters special day would not have been as amazing without the team we had around us allowing us to enjoy every second!

  Amazing company and amazing people!

  I cannot say enough good things about this company, if you think you can do a wedding without a planner/good florist then good luck to you. Our coordinators/design/floral team went ABOVE and BEYOND our expectations. This was money WELL spent! The day of my wedding was spend relaxing in the bridal suite while Emily and her team did all of the heavy lifting and set up! They are so easy to work with and she brought my vision to life, making my day absolutely perfect. She does not nickel and dime you with every single flower or garland you want, she has an overall package and a floral budget which actually ended up saving us a large amount of money in the long run. Please please please reach out to this company and give them a shot, they will absolutely blow you away with their amazing work! I cannot say enough good things.

  Amazing! Made our special day flawless!

  The Main Event was instrumental in crafting a perfect day for us. From day 1 till we said "I Do," Royall, Felicia, and the rest of their team helped us not stress over any details and focus on each other and the big day. They crushed it when it came to navigating the ever changing COVID regulations and delays. We would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to have their day be perfect and worry-free!

  Incredible Experience with The Main Event by Emily

  HIRE THIS TEAM! I can't begin to express how fantastic the entire team at The Main Event by Emily is. Every single team member went above and beyond to make sure that our day was exactly what we wanted and that everything went off without a hitch. Emily and her design team took a few pictures that represented my vision and brought it to life in the best possible way--the flowers, the ceremony area, the table scapes, everything. The coordination team (shout out to Royall!) was AMAZING --they took away the stress of vendor coordination, the flow of the day, time keeping and answering anyone and everyone's questions on the day of. THANK YOU ALL! It was the most perfect day and it wouldn't have happened without The Main Event by Emily. We are so grateful!

  Excellent work!

  Emily and her team of coordinators and designers really brought our wedding together and made it absolutely wonderful. Every detail was carefully thought out. From flowers to table settings to organizing a timeline and vendors, TME made sure our wedding went smoothly. I've received nothing but compliments with how beautiful everything was, and I truly believe TME is worth every cent.

  The best of the best!

  Emily and her team made my dream wedding come to life! From our first meeting to our last, Emily completely understood my vision. She had many new ideas to offer, and her shop is filled with everything possible to make your wedding happen. Emily and her design team have this thing down to a science, so they work efficiently but uniquely. They also provide all floral arrangements at the most amazing prices. My wedding was everything I dreamed up in my head and more. I would not change a single thing from my wedding design/decor, and for that, I thank The Main Event. I will recommend her to any bride planning her wedding, and would give 6 stars if I could.
  
  Royall, my lead wedding coordinator, also did a fantastic job. She is thorough, detail oriented, and so so friendly! I felt like I knew her for years during our first meeting. She takes her time with each meeting and adapted so easily to any changes I wanted to make. My mom and I thought we had the planning thing under control- until Royall joined us in the month-of planning. We realized how much we needed her assistance and expertise. When we had questions or concerns, or when confusion arose, Royall handled it all. She was the communicator between all vendors, which I cannot stress how much we needed that. She made our month leading up to the wedding so calm and controlled, and the wedding went so smoothly thanks to Royall and her assistant, Ashley! I will forever thank them for their services, and I know our wedding was so successful because of them!
  
  Overall, I can’t recommend The Main Event enough. These ladies are amazing and I 100% believe everyone needs them in their wedding planning. If you’re on the fence about using their services, I promise you, you NEED them.

  A Priceless Team

  I’ve been reluctant to write this review only because no matter what I write, my words will never be able to do justice to the perfection that Emily and her team created for my daughter and son in law’s wedding day! We first met Emily well over a year ago and within minutes, this wonderful woman totally got our vision. While that impressed me, the micro manager in me thought, I’m sure I’m going to have to get way more involved in every nitty gritty detail if this is going to be perfect. I was totally wrong.
  So Emily is beyond ahhhhhmazing! But what about her team? Well she sure knows how to pick them! Hannah works with Emily on design. That young lady gets it and then takes it way beyond what you could have ever imagined.
  Royall was our lead event coordinator. Scratch that….Royall was supposed to be our lead event coordinator but quickly became part of our family. Immediate trust and faith in Royall came easily just by talking to her. Any anxiety you have about things going off the rails is totally eradicated. Attention to detail and making sure that you are one thousand percent taken care of are just two of her strong suits. I truly cannot say enough about how blessed we were because of her!
  Ashley was there at every turn, working in conjunction with Royall. Whatever we needed, from eyelash glue to not sticking the groomsmen with those awful buttoner pins, she was on point!
  On the day of the event, there’s a crew of people that come in and work to execute everything you’ve dreamed of and then some. I probably won’t ever know their names, but I want to thank them as well. They were like fairies working their magic. You literally took my breath away as I looked around at all that had been created!
  The thought of planning a wedding is overwhelming, but I guarantee you this. You cannot put a price tag on the joy and peace of mind this talented team of dynamite individuals will bring to that special day and everyday leading up to it!!!! So, if you are considering using The Main Event, hurry up and just do it before someone else comes along and snags your date!

  Exceptional planning, floral, rental and coordination services

  Despite the uncertainty of planning a wedding in the midst of a global pandemic, Emily Norton, Royall Bryan and Amber Epps never wavered in their assurances that everything would work out, and they made sure it did. We never knew from one week to the next how government directives on social distancing and limits on the size of gatherings might wreck months of preparation, but this team of ladies pushed ahead and finalized every last detail. We can’t thank them enough for all they did to help us create an intimate, memorable wedding that we were able to share with our families and dearest friends.

  Dooley Wedding

  Emily and her team are the absolute best! We postponed our original wedding date in May due to COVID, and Emily was more than accommodating. I am a very organized person with all sorts of Pinterest boards and Emily welcomed all of my ideas and even came up with better ones. Her design for my wedding was beyond what I was thinking in so many good ways! It came all together perfectly.
  Now I want to praise my wonderful coordinators. Royall and Des were beyond. I had been working with Royall since the month before my wedding, and we talked almost every day. She deserves an extra award for just putting up with me. She made everything so much easier to handle all of the stress. She kept in contact with me and all of my other vendors. Words cannot describe how amazing Royall was at her job! Not only did she do her job beyond justice, but she also became a friend that I could vent to about wedding stress. Beyond happy with the Main Event by Emily and how they handled my wedding!

  Above and Beyond

  Let's start with the basics - if you are looking for a wedding florist/decorator then you must hire The Main Event by Emily!!! Her designs, her vision to take very limited information on what a bride likes and turn it into the bride's dream wedding is nothing short of amazing. My daughter was not the bride that has always dreamed of what her wedding day would look like, she wasn't the bride that spent countless hours pouring over Pinterest creating boards of what she wanted her day to look like. Nope, Kristin was the bride that was happy to let me, her mom choose the florist. So off I went, I searched the internet and choose a few florists for consultations and quickly realized after meeting with Emily that I didn't need to keep any of the other appointments, You see, I naively thought I just needed to hire a florist for some bouquets and maybe some centerpieces but then I would be stuck shopping different craft stores trying to come up with other wedding decor. WRONG!! Emily immediately made me realize she's not a florist she is a wedding decor guru - her inventory will blow your mind, she's got anything and everything that you can imagine, elegant, rustic, beachy..... and the list goes on and on. So your hired!!!
  Everything is set and everything is good right? No, not right Covid 19 hits and the wedding that we planned is up in the air - do we wait to see what Phase we are in, cut the guest list or do we change venues. All vendors were notified that a potential venue change was being considered but not a clue where. Emily jumped in and escorted us to a venue that was in the planning stages, so basically an open empty field. That's what I saw but Emily saw a blank canvas to make beautiful.
  Then comes the hard part - getting the most non picky bride to give us at least a little something to go on, well we got her colors and that she likes sunflowers and the rustic look. So that is where Emily shines, she showed Kristin a few different options and took it from there.
  We showed up to the most beautiful ceremony and reception site that you can imagine, Emily took what Kristin liked and ran with it - to quote Kristin it was "perfect".
  I could go on and on endlessly of all the ways Emily exceeded our expectations but I'm not even sure anybody will read this far - so if you have made it this far this is what I have to say HIRE EMILY!!!! It is worth every penny spent and I would do it all over again!!

  Absolutely amazing!!!!

  Royall and Desiree helped make our day beautiful!!! They worked very diligent to create a timeline and worked best for everyone and were flexible with any changes. The design team made the venue even more beautiful than what it already is. Thank you to everyone to helped make our day exactly what we dreamed it would be!

  The most magical day of my life

  As far as design and flowers go... it exceeded every bit of my expectations. I got design quotes and floral quotes and the price by-far was the best in Virginia. Emily teared up in our first visit about her passion for providing "dream weddings" within the bride's budget but I had no idea how much she meant that. I literally gave her my Pinterest board and she brought it to life. The bouquets looked IDENTICAL to what I picked out but more beautiful. I wanted rustic car parts that she did not have and she went digging for them in her free time. Literally every touch she put in there I cried. She could charge double for what she did with my wedding. My husband was blown away with it all. He still can't stop talking about how wonderfully it was decorated. She met with us at the venue (1 hour away) to make sure everything was taken care of.
  
  Ashley was our month-of coordinator and when I say I did not stress I mean it. She thought of all the things I never would have considered, our FaceTime session was incredibly productive. She contacted all of my vendors, was clear on the services they provided and found out my caterer didn't bus plates! What a shock! So Emily and Ashley and the team stepped in. When I say I felt like a princess on my wedding day, I really did. Ashley made sure everything was where it needed to be, brought us food, carried my belongings, and made the entire experience ZERO stress. I had all the time to enjoy my time with my guests, and had not a care in the world because I knew she had it all. This woman should be organizing the White House events. Seriously. If you're on the fence about hiring these people... DO IT. Design and Coordination are not where you want to cut corners in a budget. We are already hiring them for our next anniversary party :P

  Best investment we made for the wedding...

  When we began planning our wedding we knew we would get married at a family member's home which is an old farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. I was convinced that between amazon and pinterest I could decorate the wedding myself. I was completely wrong and I am so happy that we hired Emily and Hannah to decorate our venue. It transformed the wedding from a backyard party into a formal event.
  
  I met Emily at the Virginia Beach wedding expo and she immediately caught my attention by how passionate she was about weddings. When we met to speak about wedding details she immediately understood the vintage literary look I was aiming for. Hannah and Emily even drove out to our venue to see the space and they were understanding that I wanted to include vintage pieces from the home as well. They created an amazing vintage photo booth area that blended our furniture and their pieces seamlessly. The flowers were perfect accents throughout the entire location. Hannah and her crew showed up right on time and arrived immediately after we said goodbye to our guests like set up/take down ninjas. Seriously, they took so much stress off of me as far as decorating and flowers and made my imagination a reality. Thanks so much!

  Such beautiful work!

  Emily and her team are the best! She stayed within our budget and created such a beautiful piece. I sent her some inspiration pictures so she could get a sense of what I liked and OMG when I saw our bouquets, I was in love!! So unique and just so perfect for our day. I was so impressed because I really didn't know what I wanted and she was able to create such beautiful work with such little information! Thank you so much, Emily!
