I hired Ro for the month of for my daughter‘s wedding. Although I hired her for the month of, We were communicating with her at least four months in Advance. She responds quickly to our emails and phone calls; she will never leave you with an unanswered question. On the day of my daughter’s wedding, absolutely no issues, she kept everybody in line and everything went according to the timeline. She’s wonderful, her services are worth more than she charges. I highly recommend her.

Hiring Rolanda was the best decision we made through our entire wedding experience!
Working with Rolanda while planning our wedding was the absolute best decision! She was truly a life saver in so many aspects of the planning and coordinating process. Being a person who always feels like they need to be in control, I was able to relax the day of the wedding knowing that Rolanda had everything handled. From coordinating the vendors, to making sure they arrived on time, making sure everything was in the place it needed to be, and even staying on top of the wedding party- she had everything running so smoothly. I didn't have to stress over a single detail because I could trust that she had everything under control. I feel like she is responsible for me being able to just enjoy my day. She also made sure the groom and I had water and a drink at all times- which was SO helpful while being busy talking to guests! She also made sure we had food at the cocktail hour. She also ran back and forth to our room for us to get a change of shoes, put away things from the reception, and any other little errands we needed that day. There are so many little details that she made sure came together that ended up making our day absolutely perfect and stress free. I could not emphasize hiring her enough! She is truly an angel and the best at what she does!

Excellent! Highly recommend!
Rolanda truly was a gift from God for my wedding. I was in a very hectic and stressful time in my life and she made this the least stressful experience on my plate. She really shines on the wedding day where all her hard work and coordinating comes to light. I did not have a single worry that day and I am a very type A person so that is saying a lot. She truly works miracles and is in every part of the process so that you can have an incredible wedding. Thank you Rolanda!

Without a doubt the best wedding planner
Rolanda is REMARKABLE and AMAZING!!!!!! My husband and I are more than grateful and thankful to have had Ro as our wedding planner. She literally executed the delivery of our dream wedding. We are very happy that we chose her and we couldn’t imagine having anyone to experience our journey with us. She is very detailed, punctual, precise, and she does everything in her power to make sure your wedding is exactly what you envision. Not to mention her personality is wonderful and she was a true blessing in our lives. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and we have Rolanda and her team to thank for that. The name of the business is “vision into reality events” and boy did she do just that. I highly recommend Ro she did such a fantastic job with my wedding that I will absolutely be referring her and using her for any of my future parties and hands-down she is the best wedding planner there is!!! There are not enough words to express our gratitude for her job well done! Thank you again for your hard work and just being you

Wedding Coordinator Perfection
Ro was a dream come true! Being a 2020 couple definitely presented some unique challenges. 4 booked venues, 2 caterers, last second guest list changes and global uncertainty just to name a few. She guided us through each one flawlessly. She is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and will take a huge weight off your shoulders. The whole experience was like working with a lifelong friend. Hiring Ro was the best vendor decision we made. We loved every moment working with her and are so thankful to call her our friend.

Organized and Efficient Wedding Planner
My husband and I used Ro as our coordinator for our wedding in early June. As soon as I talked to Ro, I knew she would be a great fit and so easy to work with. She is organized, a strong communicator, and gets everything done. Ro is very confident and capable and helped us to feel calm going into our wedding. Even though we only used her for for coordination and not a full planning service, she was available to support us from the day we hired her! Our wedding day went off without a hitch and I'm sure it's because Ro was handling everything in the background!! I absolutely recommend hiring Vision into Reality Events!

Best investment!
Rolanda was literally the best investment for our wedding day. She paid for herself at least TWICE. My husband and I got engaged at the beginning of the pandemic when EVERYTHING was uncertain and she made sure that we signed on with vendors who would be fair if we needed to postpone... which we did. But let me tell you, this lady gave me the wedding of my DREAMS within my budget! She made things work, found my dream venue, got all my visions into the room and found the perfect vendors to fit our vibe. Literally vision into reality. My wedding was absolutely stress free from beginning to the end because of Ro. In our first meeting I told her "these are my ideas, I just want to show up" and Ro took that and executed, but also made sure we had input on decisions that would make our wedding ours. Ro became part of our people the day we hired her, and I am forever thankful to her for making every detail stress free and perfect!

Wedding Planner/coordinator
Rolanda Hardy was amazing! I loved her organization and professionalism. I hired her for the day of my wedding and it was the best decision I ever made. I never had to worry about contacting any of my vendors. She created schedules and timeline for us, our wedding party, and vendors. I didn’t have to worry about anything. She handled everything. She was also extremely familiar with the venue and highly experienced with planning. She made sure I had a stress free and relaxed day. I would highly recommend Rolanda Hardy; she is fantastic!

Absolutly Perfect
Rolanda Hardy in a word is incredible. Her caring and sense of detail was astonishing. Without her, my wedding day would have been plain and maybe looked like so many others. Her insight, talent, attention to the smallest of details made me look and my husband look amazing. She is the real deal. I can't thank her enough. The vendors she works with had the same level of professionalism. She works hard to make you feel special, to make you feel that for that moment, you are her only concern. Never rushed, always attended to. Every call, email, and point of contact was genuine and without time restrictions. I love her....! Thank you Rolanda for making my special day a remembrance that will fill my heart forever.

Very creative, and she will go above and beyond for your special day
We hired Rolanda to be our day of coordinator through a recommendation from a friend who got married the same year. She was amazing and went above and beyond for us. She connected us to our amazing photographer and DJ and she even helped me troubleshoot a number of vendor logistics issues and proposed solutions that worked. On our wedding day we felt truly relaxed because we knew Ro had everything well under control and our wedding was on time and everything moved smoothly on schedule. Even though she has a large book of clients and events we always felt like a priority. My only regret is not hiring Rolanda for the full planning package because she is worth it!!!

The One & Only Rolanda!!
My wife and I had changed our wedding date 3x before finally settling on 12-12-21. When knew regardless of what was going on in the world we were going to make that day our day. We were nervous about the many hurdles and challenges that laid ahead of us but it all subsided once we hired Rolanda! From Day 1 we truly knew Rolanda made OUR day, her day as well. She was caring, thoughtful, honesty and invested EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. She took time with us, she laughed with us, and she in turn became part of our Family! Our day is as much hers and if you are looking for someone to be that guiding light and go getter to make your day the best day ever, look no further than Rolanda! I’d get married again if it meant Rolanda would be the ring leader running the show!

Amazing Planner
The first decision I made for my wedding was to hire a wedding planner, and I made the best decision hiring Rolanda and Vision into Reality Events! With Rolanda, you not only get a planner, you also get a friend. Due to the pandemic, the whole process lasted almost two years and Ro was with us every step of the way, providing valuable advice and direction. She was always calm and resourceful even when we had to move our date, and had last minute vendor cancellations. She understood my vision from the first moment we spoke on the phone, and throughout the whole process she ensured that I never compromised on the things I thought were important for my wedding day. She is a sweetheart who loves her job and you can tell from how involved and dedicated she is to her clients. Ro ensured my wedding day was perfect and well executed. I literally was not worried at all throughout the day because I trusted Ro had everything under control, which she did! She did an amazing job working with the vendors to ensure that the decorations for the ceremony and receptions were perfect. Everything that day was fantastic!! Ro is truly the best and I highly recommend her and Vision Into Reality Events!!

The most amazing soul and supportive planner
Rolanda has been an incredibly support to me and my husband since we got engaged. I am someone with lots of anxiety when it comes to planning, and I'm usually very independent. Rolanda had my full trust since day one. She has made this process very seamless for my husband and I. She truly cares about her couples. This is not just a job for her, it is her passion. I feel so blessed to have found her. Her work ethic is excellent. She follows through and has great advice. Planning through covid has not been ideal, but with Rolanda as our planner I have feel so much support. Thank you!

Bride in the Wedding Industry
As Bride who is also in the event industry- I honestly had plenty of options of who to use as my wedding coordinator. I never had to give it thought though- I knew (before I was even with my husband) I was going to use Rolanda! She kept me at ease when the hotel gave us hoops to jump through and did I mention she jumped through hoops?!?! Thank you forever Rolanda, for making my day perfect in every way possible!!!

Ro, she's one of a kind
Ro is an absolute dream to work with. She was heaven sent and completely instrumental in seeing my wedding planning through to fruition. We met Ro after our engagement in 2019 and planned for a 2020 wedding. Ro not only stood by us through 3 pandemic scheduling dates but genuinely supported, cheered, and cared for us through this experience until October 2021; when we were finally able to have our ceremony. The only thing grander than the service and support that Ro provides is her heart. My wife and I are beyond grateful for having had the absolute privilege of having met Ro. She is professional, incredibly detailed and thorough, a fearless advocate for the wedding couple, and an incredibly resourceful problem solver. She goes above and beyond to support and coach a couple through the process and normalizes typical as well as unusual headaches, obstacles, and the occasional family/friend dynamics that can present throughout the wedding planning process. She is a gift to the industry and a dear friend, who knows not only how to make a bride feel special but a groom feel pretty special too

Our biggest Supporter
When I searched for a wedding coordinator/planner it was so important that I worked with someone that I could trust and be on my team. From our initial conversation, I felt that Rolanda really heard and understood my vision for our wedding. She was great in facilitating all of the necessary conversations with vendors. Planning a wedding has such a mental and emotional component to it, and Rolanda was so kind and supportive towards us. My husband and I formed such a lovely relationship with Rolanda, and she will be in my life forever! I Highly recommend working with her, and choosing her to be by your side for the most important day of your marriage

Hire Only If You Want Your Wedding Vision, A Reality
Our wedding day was by the far the most special day of our lives. Vision into Reality Events (Rolanda), literally made our dreams come true. From start to finish I could not have asked for a more dedicated visionary, working to make everything happen. It was truly a magical day. The flow and execution of the day did not provide us with any worries or stress. Not to mention gaining a friend through it all to make it even more special! Rolanda leading her company Vision into Reality Events has a gift and those who experience her become richer because of it.

Easy, Professional and Super Helpful
Rolanda was absolutely fantastic. She helped us plan our wedding in 6 months during COVID when restrictions were still all over the place. Originally we planned an outdoor mirco-wedding (since that was the only thing allowed at the time). But as restrictions got lifted, we were then able to expand our wedding! She scheduled my dress, venue and vendor appointments quickly and efficiently and helped manage my stress throughout the process. She was very honest about what was realistic with our budget and would tell us what price range was reasonable for various wedding items. Rolanda also recommended the most amazing photographer, florist and bridal shop. Additionally, she handled the coordination and details with the DJ, photo booth, and other vendors. I can honestly say that I could not and would not have planned a wedding without Rolanda. My husband absolutely loved her too and she helped made our day absolutely perfect and stress-free. Would highly recommend her to anyone for an event!

Top Notch Wedding Planner
I cannot say enough good things about Vision into Reality Events and its owner Rolanda Hardy. She made my daughter’s wedding day perfect. She made the wedding planning stress free for me. She kept me in the loop with the planning details, but her help allowed me to avoid micromanaging the event. She listens and works cooperatively with the bride and groom to ensure that she understand their ideas and helps them transform them into a memorable wedding.
She thought of everything. No detail was too small and she solved issues before they could become problems. Rolanda and her team are the consummate professionals. She provides the highest level of organization and customer service. Her list of preferred vendors is excellent.

Rolanda is amazing!!
Rolanda was amazing!!! She helped plan, coordinate our wedding and rehearsal dinner in Malibu this past June 2021. I don’t know what we would have done without her. She went above and beyond making everything stress free even with all the Covid restrictions we were dealing with. When we were having an issue with the venue, or special request that we wanted she always said “let me see what I can do” and miraculously the problem was solved Thank You So Much Ro!!!

I cannot say enough about the amazing experience I had with Rolanda!! I had a major wedding planning emergency when my last "planner" had nothing set up and the wedding was 2 weeks away. Rolanda not only stepped in to save the day...she absolutely killed it and I could not be happier!! Rolanda handled everything and the outcome was gorgeous. I highly recommend her for any event!!

Thank god for Rolanda
Rolanda is amazing. I had no idea where to start really. But as soon as Rolanda linked up with us I knew everything was going to work out beautifully. She is detail oriented, hard working and very organized. She makes it easy! She knows what she is doing and makes it look effortless. She thinks of every detail and makes sure to communicate regularly. She is also very sweet and has a great sense of humor. We are so grateful to have found her!

She has made my life so much easier.
I'm going to start by saying that I haven't even had my wedding yet but I am more than confident that it will go smoothly with Ro at the reigns. I wish I could put into words how great she has been. From the beginning she has been fantastic. She started with a lot of communication and has been consistent throughout the experience thus far. I honestly had a hard time giving her any control but I'm glad I did. Especially when I had to postpone my wedding with only 3 weeks before the date due to COVID-19. I was so stressed out and as soon as I let Ro know she handled it. She took the biggest weight off my shoulders and made the process of changing my date so easy. I am so glad we met her. If you're thinking about hiring her, just do it, you won't regret it.

Mother of the Bride - Forever grateful!
I'm the Mother of the bride and I can honestly say that hiring Ro (Rolanda) was one of the best decisions we made! So precise and detailed, Ro knew every vendors name and number. What time they were arriving and what they were delivering. She knew who was getting their make up and hair done and how long it would take to ensure no one would delay the photographer. I'm serious!! She is that detailed! Ro had a timeline for every detail of the wedding from the photography, church ceremony and what guest would be doing when the bridal party was taking pictures etc. Ro is so easy going too! Everyone at the Mission Inn knows and loves her. Any request Ro had they were so kind and attentive to oblige. No one said no to Ro! i.e during the wedding rehearsal it was important for us to have a communion table up front. There wasn't one in the chapel. Ro immediately worked with staff and before we new it we had a perfect round table with a nice covering. Ro even stood late on the night of the rehearsal because she wanted to make sure everything my daughter envisioned for her wedding ceremony would be done. Needless to say everything ran seamless. I think my husband and I danced to every song played that night. We enjoyed every moment of the wedding because we didn't have to worry about a thing. Ro had everything under control! For my daughter and son in law, their wedding day truly was their dream come true. Thank you Ro, we will forever be grateful.
