Chris Sent on 10/14/2025Best Day of My Life
5 stars is not enough. I would literally trust this woman with my life. Her attentiveness and work ethic is the likes of which I have never encountered before. The design, details, vision… Everything about our wedding felt like a dream. Yvonne (and her staff) were on point both during the wedding day and during all days prior. They had an answer for everything. Don’t know how to tie a bow tie? She handled it. Ran out of bourbon within the FIRST HOUR of your reception? She already had people making a run. Procession organization? With Yvonne, it's all simple, clear and easy. My wife and I didn’t worry about a single thing on our wedding day besides each other. Beyond this, Yvonne is fun to work with! We spent a lot of our time laughing together, she makes planning a wedding an enjoyable process. Before we hired her, all I felt was stress. After? Only excitement. I could not recommend working with someone more, if you want a wedding planner/coordinator, she is the only option as far as I am concerned. Make life easier for yourself and hire Unique Melody Events. Worth every penny and then some. -

The best -- could not have imagined our wedding without Unique Melody! Yvonne, the owner, was response and professional and within budget. Our assigned planner, Steph, was my "weekend of" coordinator for our wedding in West Dover, VT in August 2025. She is the best! She kept us running on time, managed every little detail, remembered things we didn't, and even danced a line dance with us! Our day was beautiful and relatively stress free. (I'd been married once before years ago with no planner and several things went awry back then - so I know the difference a good planner makes.) Our day was truly amazing! Our venue even told us she's the best planner they'd seen. Steph is the best, and has a lovely personality and sense of humor to boot. Steph's assistant Katrina was awesome, and even helped dress our dog, who was part of the wedding. You can't go wrong with Unique Melody! We are so grateful for them! -

Alexa Sent on 07/12/2025A Dream Team for Our Wedding Day
Yvonne and her assistant, Catherine, were an essential part of our wedding planning/day. When vendors weren’t responding to us, Yvonne was on the case and resolved issues quickly and efficiently. When there were hiccups with a vendor on the day of, Yvonne acted urgently without adding any additional stress to the day. We highly recommend the services of Unique Melody! -

Alexis Sent on 05/31/2025If you need anything month-of planner, choose Unique Melody
Everyone has asked after our wedding if getting a planner so close to the wedding was worth it. The answer is absolutely yes.
Tami took over all duties and was able to do many tasks that needed doing, including fielding many questions and concerns, that she simplified many things before the wedding. (Which considering how work ramped up for the bride and groom before the wedding - that was great!). She also learned the particulars of a Jewish style wedding and handle the vendors with ease.
The day of, she and her assistant were on it. They flexibly dealt with the weather, hiccups, and the bride and groom running on autopilot.
If you need someone to take the stress out of the last month or two before the wedding and the day of, we highly.recommend Unique Melody. -

Emily Sent on 03/30/2025The best decision you can make for your weddding!
Working with Unique Melody Events was the best decision that my husband and I made for our wedding. It’s difficult to know where to start in expressing my awe of and gratitude for their work; maybe the highest praise I can give is that I don’t actually know how they could have possibly created the most beautiful wedding in the world. Yvonne was meticulous yet relaxed; detail-oriented while always remembering the larger vision and budget. Yvonne and her team were focused on not only planning a seamlessly wonderful wedding, but planning a wedding that told the unique story of our personalities, families, and love. Not only did Yvonne and her team execute an incredible event, they ensured that every minute of it was a stress-free and truly memorable experience for both my husband and I, our families, and our guests. Many of our guests have told us that our wedding was a unique and perfect reflection of my husband and to us, that is the best compliment we could receive—and we owe all of it to Unique Melody Events. -

Every bride needs Lindsey. Lindsey worked a long, hard day and helped me every step of the way. -

Yvonne is the best!!!!
Yvonne and her team are the best out there! We had Yvonne as our month of planner for our October 2023 wedding and it made our wedding day seamless. She attended planning meetings with us and knew all the right questions to ask. She also helped me figure out our centerpieces which took a huge amount of stress off of me as the bride. When we entered the venue our vision had come to life. With very little direction, she knows exactly how to make your day, YOUR day. Highly recommend 10/10.Unique Melody Events & Design's reply:
Thank you Megan! Working with you was such a pleasure and it was an honor to execute your vision on your wedding day! -

Lauren Sent on 12/20/2023Highly recommend!
We cannot recommend Unique Melody enough!! I really wanted to enjoy our day and was also a little nervous about passing off all my months of planning, but the second I met Steph I knew we were in good hands (Yvonne ran our rehearsal and Steph ran our event). Not only was having a coordinator on the day absolutely invaluable, but it was tremendously nice in the weeks before our wedding to know we had minimal work left to do because UME was on everything. We think spending money on a day-of coordinator was the best money we spent on our wedding because it allowed us to focus fully on all the other things we spent money on: we ate all the food, danced to all the music, and really got to live in the moment. Months away from our wedding, we are still basking in the glow, in large part because of all the hard work UME did on our behalf. -

Charlotte Sent on 08/26/2023Amazing! Such a professional!
Yvonne is a true professional and a delight to work with. I recommend her services completely. From the moment my fiancé and I partnered with Yvonne, we knew we were in good hands. She always one step ahead of us in planning, was forever organized for our calls, and made us feel supported throughout the process. Yvonne has organized hundreds of events--and this expertise and experience shows. I am so grateful for all that Yvonne did to make our wedding possible. Thank you!Unique Melody Events & Design's reply:
Thank you Charlotte for your kind words! It was an honor and a pleasure to work with you Dylan and Nancy. I will always remember the view from the top of the hill at Clark. Can't wait to see those photos! And how sweet it was that you two mentioned me in your Thank you speech! Wishing you both a great adventure together! -

Keith Sent on 06/20/2023Perfect to a Tee!
Stephanie was perfect in every way. I was doubting even needing a day of coordinator and I honestly can say we would not have had as special of a day without her.
Stephanie and Brianna always had the answer and kept everything moving slowly. I was impressed how they made sure everything was taken care of, but stayed in the background through each part of the ceremony then reception. She always had GREAT patience with changes and groomsmen.
I truly cannot sing her praises enough. -

Tia F. Sent on 04/18/2023Working with Unique Melody Events was the best decision we made for our wedding!
Yvonne at Unique Melody Events not only made our wedding possible, but made it stunning as well! She let us lead the conversation but knew exactly where to support or take the lead along the way. Her sense of design and artistry meant that visually our wedding exceeded our expectations. All of our family and friends remarked on her professionalism, kindness, and, of course, execution. -

We worked with Kelly and Briana as our Wedding Coordinators for our weekend camp wedding! They were amazing - Kelly was our main point of contact for the weekend and she was on top of EVERYTHING! She really allowed us to relax & have fun! We know she was working so hard and we are so grateful to her & Briana for everything they did to make our weekend so special! We will always be grateful! -

Allison Sent on 08/28/2022Reason I had Fun on my Wedding Day - No Stress!
I wish I had reached out to Olivia and Yvonne earlier. I was becoming increasingly stressed about everything I had to do and worried about the day of coordination so I knew I needed help. Although I had the majority of my vendors booked by the time UME came on board, I was instantly relieved by how experienced and professional everyone was. Yvonne talked us through some things we hadn't previously thought of and we got to know Olivia about a month or two before our wedding. Olivia and her team were so helpful leading up to the wedding and helping us iron out final details but they really shined on the day of. They were completely unphased by anything happening, kept us on schedule, communicated clearly with us (the bride and groom) and our families. I had been so worried leading up to the wedding and ended up having the best day really thanks to Olivia, her team and UME. -
![Justin]()
Justin Sent on 07/28/2022Yvonne is amazing!!!
From our first call with Yvonne, we really appreciated her attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and experience. We knew right away that we had made a great decision to work with her, but we had no idea how much of a positive impact she would have on what turned out to be the best day of our lives.
So many people told us that their wedding day was so stressful, or that they didn’t even get a chance to eat, but thanks to Yvonne, we got to actually enjoy everything about the big day. Yvonne made sure everything was going smoothly without us having to worry about anything - and better yet, she even made sure we each had a plate from the buffet waiting for us at our seats while we socialized with our guests.
Between the planning process leading up to the wedding and especially her day-of coordination, we couldn’t recommend Yvonne highly enough. If you’re still debating if you should work with her, go do it before your date gets booked up by someone else! -

Jessica Sent on 11/27/2021Best day of coordinator!
Thank you to Yvonne for being our awesome day-of coordinator and to her assistant Cartier! Yvonne’s experience and expertise shows in her thoughtful consideration for aspects of the wedding day we did not even think of. Her attention to detail helped carry out our vision - with everything from the seating chart table to the sweetheart table, everything was as we had envisioned! -
Claire Sent on 11/08/2021
You simply can't go wrong when you pick Yvonne!
The first time I spoke to Yvonne was over the phone in late 2020. After just a few minutes into the call, I knew I needn’t look farther; Yvonne was our wedding planner. Instantly, it was obvious to me that Yvonne was (is) creative, hardworking, and confident she would plan the wedding my husband and I wanted – one that compromised with our parents’ wants and wishes too, of course. And that’s what she did; she and her team at Unique Melody Events and Designed nailed it.
Despite the short turn-around time we gave, the uncertainty of then-future Covid-19 regulations for in-person gatherings, and the unprecedented uptick in weddings postponed from the height of the pandemic, our wedding went off without a hitch thanks to Yvonne’s exceptional organization, knowledge of the industry, and knowing the most reliable vendors for each aspect that constitutes a successful wedding. Never was there a doubt in our minds that anything would go wrong but, of course, something always goes wrong at weddings, right? Unbeknownst to the bride and groom, the electricity source (a fickle plug originating from the 3rd story window of a 150+ year old Victorian) failed and, apparently, the police made an appearance at some point. But of course, Yvonne was ready with already-approved permits in-hand necessary for an event at a private residence and was quick to get the electricity back on. It was only in the days and weeks after that we heard what had “gone wrong.”
Furthermore, and since our wedding was not held at a formal venue, we appreciated Yvonne’s dedication to traveling on several occasions to our venue vis-à-vis the bride’s childhood home for walkthroughs of the back garden as well as making sure we were all in agreement for the various details. I would be remiss if I didn’t commend Yvonne for her professionalism and willingness to step in when family tension arose as well.
Forgive the cliché, but our wedding really and truly was the best and most beautiful day – the décor, the vibe, the flow of it all, and everything else was exactly – and I mean exactly – what we hoped we had described over several Zoom calls and countless emails. Our only complaint was that it went by way too quickly! Just as everyone says it will.
Needless to say, I don’t know how she did/does it, but Yvonne exceeded our expectations and took care of everything with the utmost competence. We highly recommend her and will always advocate that a wedding planner is 110% worth it and, more so, that you simply cannot go wrong when you pick Yvonne!
Unique Melody Events & Design's reply:
Thank you Claire,
Working with you and your family at your childhood home was so fun! It was an honor to bring your vision to life. I will never forget the experience your mother shared during her toast at the wedding and how we got to incorporate plants that Tom's dad helped to create. The personal touches are always my favorite! -

Sarah Sent on 07/21/2021Absolute perfection
Yvonne was one of my guiding lights on our wedding day! We hired Yvonne as a Day-of Coordinator for our wedding, and from the beginning, I knew I could trust her. She’s warm, knowledgeable, and down to earth, which is exactly what we needed. When I started panicking a few months out thinking I’d have to change plans due to the pandemic, she was kind enough to talk it out with me and helped me lay out a game plan, taking away a lot of stress. Luckily, we were able to keep all of our original plans. Yvonne jumped right in about a month or so out, ensuring me that everything was taken care of. On the wedding day, I felt so relaxed because I knew that Yvonne and her assistant were handling everything from setting up the decor, coordinating with other vendors, and making sure the timeline was running smoothly. She was absolutely committed to me and my husband, and I knew that if we needed anything she’d be right there ready to help. She made our vision come to life, and everything went so smoothly, thanks to her. We’re so incredibly grateful to her, and can’t recommend her highly enough!!Unique Melody Events & Design's reply:
Thank you Sarah,
It was such a pleasure to be a part of your wedding day team! You handled planning throughout a pandemic with grace and poise. I wish you and Andrew all the best in your future together! -

Great flexibility, especially during the pandemic. I appreciated her leading the rehearsal and taking care of the vendors in final planning and coordination. I appreciated Yvonne's availability to help with decorations and offer design ideas. It was a wonderful experience! -
![Rose]()
Rose Sent on 11/23/2019Excellent Wedding Planner!
Yvonne and the Unique Melody team helped us plan our dream wedding. From the beginning of our process through wedding day details, Yvonne made it easy have the wedding we wanted. Everyone had told us how stressful planning a wedding could be, but she made the process fun!
The ceremony we envisioned required extra coordination and creativity, and she turned all of
our ideas into more than we could have imagined. She did an exceptional amount of behind the scenes work with all of our vendors – from the lighting to the band to the caterers – without us having to worry about all the logistical details. On the day of, she made sure everything went smoothly and that we were calm and stress free (or at least as stress free as can be). As a bonus, all of her vendor recommendations were locally owned and operated.
Thank you, Yvonne and Unique Melody!Unique Melody Events & Design's reply:

Yvonne is literally AMAZING!!
Yvonne made our wedding dreams a reality. From the day we met her, her warm go getter personality was one we needed to make our wedding happen. She helped calm us and reassure us when needed, answered any and all questions we had during planning, and delivered the most beautiful setup and flow for our big day. I honestly don’t know how she does it all, but she is simply, amazing. Our day wouldn’t have been as smooth and successful without her!Unique Melody Events & Design's reply:
Thank you Elise,
It was such an honor and a pleasure to work with you and Ben! You are an amazing team and I wish you the best adventures together! -

Valerie Sent on 10/20/2017It's always hard to put your vision in someone else's hands.. especially being a fellow designer yourself. But choosing Yvonne, to not only put together my vision and all my Diy decor along with coordinating my wedding.. was the best decision ever..! She was on top of everything... and I mean everything!!! Being a bride is nerve wrecking, especially with so much responsibility and the rush of everything going on, you forget to breathe or even eat. Yvonne was just on top of it all.. she made our day go smoothly, she decorated our ceremony area and hall as envisioned. Everything was perfect.. I would highly recommend her for all events.. She is very talented..as is her assistant. They are a great team!!! You will not be disappointed in your choice.. I know we definitely were happy with our decision and glad to have met such a great person.. I felt like we knew each other forever.. I hope for the opportunity to work with them again.. and I will definitely look forward to it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your time,patience and hard work... -

Alissa Sent on 08/19/2018Working with Unique Melody events for day of coordination services was an absolute pleasure. Yvonne handled all of the details on my wedding day which left me stress free and able to enjoy everything we had worked so hard to plan. We had been on the fence about hiring a coordinator but I would hands down recommend this vendor. -
![Laurel]()
Laurel Sent on 11/21/2025An amazing Planner for a type-A Planner!!
We hired Yvonne for her full-service wedding planning and loved her! Our venue did not come with a coordinator, vendor list, or much of anything, so we knew we needed help with getting everything ready from the ground up. Additionally, I started graduate school and knew I would quickly get overwhelmed with the planning. What drew us to Yvonne is her philosophy that your wedding should be about YOU and that your guests walk in saying, "This is SO them". We also had a multi-cultural wedding with my husband's side being Korean, and Yvonne approached this with such grace and care. She truly delivered on finding vendors that could execute on our vision and assembled nothing short of the dream team (that we would have had zero chance of without her connections). I truly miss our check-in meetings and never felt like I couldn't speak up about something I was worried about or disliked. It was an amazing day, and it would not have been possible without Yvonne and her team. -

Sonya Sent on 09/03/2024Hire Yvonne to make your wedding dreams come true!
Yvonne did an incredible job as month of coordinator for my wedding! I can't recommend enough that you hire Unique Melody for your event! I was initially very nervous to hand over my wedding to her as I had spent SO many hours on all the details but I'm SO glad that I did. She executed it with such attention to detail. I mean she was even replacing candlesticks as they were burning out! It was so helpful having her there to navigate the ceremony rehearsal the prior day and then making a weather call the day of. Her and her team worked SO hard to make all my wedding dreams come true. Whenever an issue came up they were very quick to fix it. She was extremely adaptable and no problem was too big for them to solve. My seating assignment were hand written cards that they had to so meticulously hang each card with lots of different adhesives. They kept us on a tight timeline even though all the speeches were WAY longer than they were planned to be. I'm so grateful for her an her team and she is such a pleasure to work with. THANK YOU UNIQUE MELODY!!!! -

Emily Sent on 10/04/2020A true asset to your wedding day!
Yvonne was an asset to have for our wedding and ensured the rehearsal and day-of ran smoothly and on time. She met us at our venue two weeks prior to go over the layout and answer any logistical questions that we had. She took charge leading our rehearsal the day prior, greeting our wedding party, and running through processional and recessional, making sure everyone knew where to stand.
On the day of the wedding, Yvonne stayed in contact with our MOH and Groomsman to keep them updated and informed. Her and her assistant set up our centerpieces, decorated the tables very elegantly, and made our vision come to life. She cued the bridal party for the ceremony and reception entrance and made sure the entirety of the night ran on schedule, even politely snagging us from some chatty guests to make sure we could continue with our schedule of events.
Lastly, Yvonne made sure our final payments and tips were distributed to all our vendors and packed up all the décor at the end of the night. Yvonne was instrumental in executing all the behind-the-scenes tasks during our wedding weekend and it would not have run as cohesively without her. Thanks to Yvonne, we actually got to enjoy our own wedding!
