Client Testimonials

Thank you for sharing my special day, and for making it beyond memorable!  Everyone had a fantastic time (including myself! ), and everyone RAVED about the location, the vendors we used (specifically the DJ!), and also about your services!  I can’t think of a single thing I would have changed—EXCEPT for making the moment last all night! (People actually did NOT want to go home!!  Lol!!)

Dear Eve,

Thank you so much for coordinating an amazing wedding.  It was truly a dream come true.  I appreciate all your help so much and hopefully you enjoyed working with me as well.  I will definately keep in touch and I will use you in the future.  You were wonderful to work with.

Happy Holidays!

What can I say except that this young lady is the real deal! There are no words to express my gratitude for you. My birthday was amazing, everything I imagined and then some. You are amazing at what you do and I was not only honored, but blessed that you agreed to make my dream a reality. Thank you for everything.

Eve ...my wedding coordinator, my shoulder, for the year or so we have worked on this. You are such a blessing to any and all things that you cross paths with. This day wouldn’t have been on point if it wasn’t for your skills. That wedding was off and running,  YOU DID THAT. All events; parties, birthdays, any celebration, she is the person you want to contact. I was so overjoyed with seeing all of the people who were there just to celebrate with us...your support and love meant the world.

Good morning Eve!!! Thank you for EVERYTHING. It was so beautiful. It all came together so nice. I am extremely happy with how it turned out. The food was fresh, good and plentiful. The DJ...on point...the volume was great...the seniors were very happy we didn't blast them. Your services...what can I say...you made this day so easy for me. When I walked in the room and it was perfect. Every detail was covered. The sweets we're soooo good. I think I over did it on the candy. Working with you was so easy....Again...thank you...thank you...thank you!!!!
