I'm going to admit it; I was against the idea of hiring a coordinator! I'm a type A person; I've planned events before I'll be fine! However, after looking at the details, my now husband and I decided a coordinator was a must have for our destination wedding in NOLA. After interviewing three different planners I knew without question that Emily was it. She was confident, capable, had experienced it all and was still excited about weddings. She gave me personal references for makeup and hair artists, was always available when we had random questions and was so on top of things. Before we could think of even asking the question she was providing us with the answers. On the day of, I didn't have to think about anything because it was already handled. I didn't even find out until days afterwards that our venue had communication, event setup and building issues. To me, the day went flawlessly. If I didn't have Emily, I would have ended up being distracted by the problems that needed to be fixed instead of enjoying one of the best days of my life. Special shout out to Amy, she was my bridal attendant all day. I was never without a drink, and she was always checking in to see if I needed to eat or sit for a minute. She carried my cell phone for me and provided me with great suggestions for posing during photos. I loved working with them and would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator in New Orleans. -

Brittani and Unique Weddings of New Orleans made my wedding better than I could have every dreamed and our guests can’t stop talking about it. I don’t live in New Orleans although its one of my favorite places so having Brittani on my side and taking care of every little thing was the best decision I made for my wedding day. She had everything covered start to finish. She helped me find just the right vendors and I can’t tell you how magical it was. What I loved the most is that she understands every bride and WHY they are unique and doesn’t cookie cutter each wedding. I’m very non-traditional and I wanted a smaller wedding with everyone at one communal table like an Italian family dinner. Seriously it was the most beautiful evening. With candelabras and chandeliers and a fireplace lit up with candles. It really is all the little details she is a master in that make a wedding go from ho-hum to MAGIC. Things like a handmaid arch for the vows, a dog sitter so my dogs could be in the ceremony and a second line band that showed up playing “all you need is love” by the Beatles. She really blew me away and our guests that all traveled in…some as far as from England were so impressed they still bring it up and say they’ve never been to a wedding so amazing. -

Michele and her team at Unique Weddings in New Orleans made my wedding day even better than I could even have imagined. When my now husband and I decided to get married in New Orleans (we live in Los Angeles) I knew I had to find a wedding planner to help me. Michele was extremely helpful, straight forward, and informative from our first phone call. I relied on her expertise for everything from picking the ceremony venue to the florist to my makeup artist. All of her vendors were top notch, in our budget, and delivered beyond my expectations.
Tears came to my eyes when I walked into the dining room at Muriel's and saw the amazing job she did along with New Orleans Candlelight Events and our florist in decorating the room. It was beyond stunning.
We had three musical acts for our wedding: ceremony musicians, second line band, and reception band and each one made the night a spectacular party to be remembered. I have several family members who are in the restaurant business in New York and they told me it was the best wedding they had ever attended. A few of our guests even told us it was the best party they had ever been to!
The wedding day events ran incredibly smoothly. Michele and her team kept everything and everyone moving and on schedule while being incredibly kind and friendly.
Hiring Michele at Unique Weddings in New Orleans to be our wedding planner was one of the best decisions I have made, next to saying yes to my husband's proposal! -

What to do to achieve a perfect wedding
When you can honestly respond to the question, “How was the wedding?”, with one word, “Perfect”, you know you hired the best wedding planner! Michele and Brittany held our hands every step of the way allowing us to participate as much or as little as we wanted in every aspect of the wedding. Knowing that they had our back, and that every detail would be orchestrated to perfection, was so comforting. It allowed all of us to throughly enjoy planning and attending the big night! -

Madeline Sent on 04/30/2019Amazing Experience with Michelle
I can't say enough good things about Michelle at Unique Weddings! I have been a bridesmaid several times and have never seen a coordinator this organized. She and her team are direct, prompt, and always remain calm--even in a crisis. She scrubbed a red wine stain out of my dress and fought with our band when they refused to play for the amount of time we had paid in advance for. She was truly our guardian angel the whole weekend and made everything run so smoothly. We couldn't have been happier with our decision to use Unique Weddings! -

Seriously cannot thank Brittani and Michele enough for planning such a beautiful wedding for my husband and I. We are currently located in Los Angeles, so finding a reliable wedding planner in New Orleans was very important to me. Brittani went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly and most importantly, that I remained stress free. She was very professional and timely. All of our vendors had nothing but positive things to say about her! She made sure that our vision became reality. Her input and knowledge about the wedding planning business is also a plus because she was able to work out deals and inform us on certain things that we really did not need. We had a HUGE bridal party, 24 total, and she was able to manage them and create schedules for them for the wedding day that was extremely helpful! Thank you again Brittani and Michele, we are forever grateful! -

Great working with you!
Michelle and Brittani did a great job making our space look beautiful, and most importantly, keeping it within our budget!
Brittani easily adjusted the floor plan when we needed to add a couple more tables - and everything looked amazing! -

We can honestly say that, without Brittani Adams-Perret and her outstanding team at Unique Weddings, our destination wedding in New Orleans would not have been close to as beautiful, fun, organized, special or distinct as it was. In short, this team makes MAGIC, people! Brittani is the ultimate professional, providing guidance and advice from her deep level of experience in the industry and her lifelong familiarity with the local area. She brings calm and compassion to what could otherwise have been difficult to navigate situations (weather scares, last minute guest changes, family dynamics), essential for an out-of-town and sometimes anxious bride. She is supremely organized, timely and responsive, taking advantage of technology and her own flexibility to ensure communication is as convenient as possible. She is also an outstanding creative, designing layout, logistics and decor solutions to fit and exceed whatever initial vision you might have had. Most importantly, we felt cared for, listened to and prioritized as a couple, from our first conversation with Brittani through the end of our wedding night, despite the thousands of details she and her team were handling in the background simultaneously. Our non-traditional wedding in the French Quarter was filled with love, live music, food, parading, dancing and laughter with a decidedly New Orleans spirit and flair and our diverse group of guests from all over the world and all walks of life continue to ask when we’ll get married again! So much of that is due to Brittani and the Unique Weddings team, who are pros at making events like our wedding unforgettable. -

There are not enough great things to say about Michele and her team! She was truly there with me every step of the way. The day of I was stress free because I knew her entire team had everything under control. When I walked in I was blown away about how perfect everything looked. Even my Bridesmaids and Mom loved all the lighting, candles, and decor that Michele
Took over. I would hire Unique Weddings for any event we have in the future!

Abby Sent on 10/31/2017Our one year anniversary is coming up this weekend, and people are still talking about our wedding. So many guests continue to cite it as the best wedding they've ever been to - including married people! Absolutely none of that would have been possible without Brittani. From her organizational skills, to her stellar vendor recommendations/ connections, to her absolute nailing of our vision, everything was exactly as we'd hoped, only better. There were so many small details that people kept complimenting, and while each of them was part of the overall look and feel we wanted, Brittani was the one to actually find the perfect ways to make each of those things happen. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, she was so on top of everything. At one point I was about to change into my reception dress with a pretty limited time window, when I realized I'd left a key undergarment in the hotel. She had her assistant go to my hotel room, find the item, and somehow get it to me in time. When guests had to cancel last-minute and when our chair order couldn't be completed the morning of the wedding, she handled day-of rearrangements so that everything still felt comfortable and intentional. She mediated family disagreements, put together the best gift bags, made sure we were scheduling each vendor within the right time frame, etc. etc. etc. One of the best things about working with her was she interacted with us like an old friend, which made vendor meetings feel fun and never stressful. People say your wedding day goes by in a flash, you don't get to eat at your own wedding, etc., but we were able to enjoy every moment, eat more than enough, interact with all of our people, etc. because Brittani kept everything running so smoothly and on such an efficient schedule. I'm sure I'm forgetting plenty of specific ways she was amazing, but I'll wrap it up by just saying she was the perfect planner we'd hoped for and delivered the perfect wedding that exceeded all of our hopes.

Victoria Sent on 03/02/2011I had to change venues less than a month prior to my wedding and was close to a meltdown making all these changes to my NOLA destination wedding. I was referred to Michelle by Celeste at the Omni Royal Orleans, and a truer professional and gentlewoman I've never met! She was incredibly wonderful, kind, generous and direct. Due to the venue changes, I had almost tripled the cost of my wedding and while blunt about the fact I could not afford her, she still went above and beyond in giving me some insight into the industry and placing a phone call on my behalf.
From the weddings I've seen in her portfolio, her planning skills and attention to detail are above and beyond anything I've ever seen! While I couldn't hire her for my wedding, I'm not above saving up to hire her for our 10th anniversary!
