I called Jolene at 2pm on the day of my November evening event. It was super cold out and I needed…read moreheaters and blankets to make an important meeting comfortable. I deal with a lot of vendors and I knew my same-day request (on a Saturday no less) would probably be met with cranky "not possible in the timeline" responses. Instead, I met Jolene on the other end of the phone. What a warm and positive person! She immediately took on my problems with grace and alacrity. She not only solved the heaters and blanket asks but also added so many details that I would never have thought of. Baskets to hold the blankets. Blankets tied with twine. Additional black napkins in case someone was wearing a dark outfit. Found local wines and beers. Just extremely thoughtful in everything she did. My event was not big or expensive. I'm from out of town so I'm probably not a repeat client (wish I could be!). And I had a very last minute weekend request. And Jolene pulled through 110%. I would trust her to plan just about anything. You'll be in the best hands.

Pro Chic Events truly brought my vision to life. Throughout the process, Jessica became so much more than a wedding planner to us, she became our friend. They always say that the best feeling in the world is to be able to do something for someone that can never repay you...and that is certainly true for what Pro Chic events did for us. Jessica is always professional, timely and kept me on budget! She has an incredible eye for MY taste, always advocating for what I would like- not necessarily what she would choose. She has an amazing inventory to choose from, which not only saves you a lot of money, but also a ton of work too! Jessica is also very tactful when it comes to vendors. She was able to get an extra 2 hours with my videographer at no charge and worked closely with my photographer to ensure that we didn't miss our sunset photos. When I say this team went above and beyond- they did. Whether it be offering to help my groom with his vows, putting my hair up halfway through the night, or decorating our honeymoon suite...this team did it all. I can honestly say that I had the perfect wedding. It may have been a total mess behind the scenes, but these ladies rocked it and ignorance IS bliss when it comes to your wedding day. Cheers to you and your event. I can assure you if it is handled by these ladies, it will be perfect.

There are so many little things that come with planning that I was unaware of. I have no idea how some people manage to do it without help. Fortunately, I didn't have to do it alone. Without Jessica and her amazing team at Pro Chic Events, I would have been completely and utterly screwed! She was a life saver of sorts for me. She was my wedding saver! She helped organize all of our vendors, establish a detailed timeline for the big day, designed all of our wedding flowers, and gave me a peace of mind that I never could have found without her help - (although, these things are really just the tip of the iceberg). She helped me to interpret and harness all of my ideas, and made sure that my vision for my wedding day was never compromised. My wedding day was beyond perfect, and worry free. I knew that our family and friends would be in great hands with her and her team working behind the scenes. A massive thank you to Jessica, Jessie, and Chanai for helping to make my wedding day the best day of my life! If I could give you 10 stars, I would!

I feel like I'm running out of ways to say she's so incredibly good at what she does, but i simply need everyone to know that she is so incredibly good at what she does.

Their personalities are MADE for wedding planning and dealing with hard to please brides. They are both soft spoken, not be to confused with push over. They just have a calm nature about them that puts you you at ease and reassures the bride that they don't need to stress. I would consider myself a hyper-perfectionist. I had no doubt that I could plan my own wedding... IF I had unlimited time in my life to thoroughly review & interview every single vendor within a 30 mile radius! One of my favorite things is that Heather only recommends vendors that are superb. I feel that every single vendor at my wedding was the best of the best - truly! My guests have had endless compliments about it all as well, so it didn't go unnoticed. If Calluna Events could please me on the most emotionally charged event of my life with zero complaints at all, I have no doubt they can please anyone. :) You're in good hands with Calluna Events.

As the MOB living in Connecticut, when my daughter let me know that she wanted to get married in…read morethe mountains of Colorado my first thought was panic! How was I going to help her plan a wedding that was not in her hometown in Connecticut? We definitely needed a planner to help. We interviewed several planners and my daughter and now son-in-law felt that Casey was the only one we interviewed that spent the time to get to know them and find out what they wanted in their vision of a wedding verses just telling them all the services they provide. Casey was asking how they met, what they liked to do in their free time and what was the vibe they were going for with the wedding. I felt confident that Casey would help them plan a wedding that was perfect for THEM. I wanted to be included in the planning process and Casey had no problem with this so I would be conferenced in on any calls and looped in on all the emails. Casey was very patient throughout the planning process from the number of site visits she went on to find the perfect venue to answering all the little questions we had. Casey helped us find the perfect venue that fit all the characteristics the B+G explained to her in the initial interview. At first, we signed up for "day of" planning because of expense but added the "full service" planning when we decided the venue we chose would end up being like a destination wedding where no guest lived locally so the whole weekend needed to be planned from Friday through Sunday. I am so glad we did this because Casey stepped right in and helped us with all the details! Casey is very organized and helped keep the B+G on schedule with their tasks so it never seemed overwhelming throughout the whole planning process. She recommended some great vendors! Casey went through each contract to make sure all contracts were good even before forwarding them to me to review and kept me on schedule with payments needed for all vendors so I never missed a payment. Casey was great with communication and would often answer an email on her day off even though I didn't expect an answer right away. I think Casey really excelled with logistics and design so when the time came, the wedding was flawless! All of our guests commented on how well everything came together and how beautiful the wedding was. The weekend of the wedding was amazing, the B+G and I showed up and were allowed to be just guests for the whole weekend! We did not need to worry about a thing because Casey and Jessica handled everything! It turned out better than I could have imagined! I did not find out about a problem that happened during the weekend until after the brunch when my sister let me know that she was having such trouble with the altitude right before the ceremony that Casey got her some oxygen and set her up in a place to see the ceremony where she did not have to walk. I did not even notice that this was going on. There was no doubt that Casey did not want the B+G nor me to be troubled with anything over the weekend and what a joy that was to not have that stress! When first interviewing planners I thought they were, as a whole, expensive and was a little worried with the cost of them, however, I can honestly say Casey and Aspen & Ivy are well worth the expense! Casey, I really enjoyed working with you. I felt that through the process you became more of a friend than vendor we had contracted! We definitely could not have pulled off such a beautiful event without you!

I want to highly recommend Casey Muller and Pink Diamond events. We worked with Casey for almost…read moretwo years to plan the party of our lifetime. It was a celebration of our 70th birthdays and the completion of the personal goal of hiking all the National Parks. We worked closely with Casey to plan a weekend event that included multiple meals, nightly entertainment and daily activities for 120 people, Casey is extremely organized and kept my husband and I on task by helping with an ongoing list of chores, dates and goals. She gently advised us on everything including, caterers, food, alcohol, flowers, and invitations. During the weekend Casey worked behind the scenes to make sure everything ran perfectly. We were particularly impressed when she was the last one to bed because she was running the vacuum at night to make sure the space was in perfect order for Saturday breakfast. This is the very first time we've ever used a party planner and we are so glad we did. Three months later our friends are still raving about the weekend and how well organized it was. It did help that we had the party at Estes Park on a glorious fall weekend. Casey didn't plan that. If you are planning a wedding, a family reunion, or a birthday party and looking for some an event planner who is organized, well-connected, and at a reasonable price, Pink Diamond Party Events should be your very first call.

Not only did she create a STUNNING design board that led all of the creative/design meetings with vendors; But she took a "feeling" that I had of "romantic, moody, fall" and TURNED IT INTO AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING WEDDING. It was so special to see her ability to hear the vague words and create my perfect vision for my day that all of our guests commented was "so Ashli and Brad." On top of being a design queen, she also wrangled my bridal party and vendors and kept us on track day of (really month of, I did mostly nothing).

September 28, 2022…read more I decided to wait until after our daughter's wedding to post this negative review of Libbi Alcorn and her company, Luxe Event Productions, LLC. I hired Libbi on March 4, 2022 as a full-service wedding planner for our daughter's wedding in Fort Collins on September 4, 2022. While I was optimistic and positive about hiring her initially, the result of this decision ended up as one of the worst experiences of my life. Since I was planning this wedding from out-of-state, I wanted an experienced wedding planner to find and work with all the necessary vendors to build a wedding venue on my daughter's horse ranch. I interviewed Libbi and communicated what I wanted and needed from a wedding planner. Libbi assured me she would find and secure the vendors and help me with all the aspects of the wedding planning process to their conclusion. Initially I was pleased and optimistic about my decision to hire Libbi. She was pleasant, seemed knowledgeable about vendors and whom I should hire. Early on, she contacted an outstanding DJ (Brandon Harrington of Suit and Tie DJ Professionals) and I secured the contract for his services. She also initiated contact with a rental company to order a tent and other necessities. As the weeks passed, critical wedding vendors had not been contacted or secured. I would email and text Libbi for updates and seldom received a response. I had to initiate almost all communications, asking her to schedule conference calls, inquiring about what progress she had made with regard to securing vendors, etc. Libbi and I had approximately 4 phone sessions in 3 months, during which we discussed long lists of items that needed finalizing. I was hopeful that she would follow through with her promises, but time passed and nothing changed. Here is a partial list of Libbi's lack of follow through as a wedding planner: On March 18, 2022 I asked about an officiant, and Libbi said she had the perfect choice. He was available, and I asked her to send me his contract. Over the weeks and months, I continued to inquire about the officiant and eventually, she admitted, he was no longer available. I asked her to secure a videographer, whom she said was excellent (and available), then weeks later he was inexplicably unavailable. I asked her to find and secure another videographer. She said she was doing "research" on them but she never followed through with a recommendation or a contract. In our initial conversation, Libbi emphasized the importance of securing a good photographer. My daughter wanted to hire a photographer she had used in the past for her wedding. Libbi had reservations about my daughter's choice and told me she would contact her immediately to ensure she would be a good fit. After months of not receiving a contract nor any communication about the photographer, I called her and she said she had never been contacted by Libbi and was wondering if we still wanted her to do our wedding! I followed through and secured her contract myself. Libbi provided input on available caterers and asked me to select three and select the food items I would like to sample (which I did in short order), so she could contact the caterers, get bids, and set up tastings. I waited weeks for her to get back to me. In advance of a visit I was making to Fort Collins, I reiterated my desire to have the tastings scheduled. When I met Libbi during my visit, she had not set up one tasting and informed me that our number one choice for caterer was now unavailable. I then had to set up my own tasting by going to the caterer's restaurant, contacted the catering manager, ironed out all the details (which took days of communication), and secured their services. Libbi never once communicated with our caterer. Early on, Libbi created a wedding board and said she would post ideas on it (and asked me to do the same) so we could establish a unified wedding plan and scheme. I posted 99% of the ideas and Libbi only made one or two comments on all my posts. We never discussed the information on the wedding board, and after I terminated her services, she pulled the wedding board so I would not have access to it. Libbi told me she was "almost finished with our wedding budget" mid-April but I never received any budget-related information. On April 11, I asked Libbi for names of 2 florists so I could call them and visit their shops to discuss wedding flowers during my upcoming stay in Colorado. She did not provide me with any names. One month later, Libbi set up an initial phone meeting with a florist, whom I really liked. I did not receive any follow up information from Libbi about the floral contract. After I terminated Libbi, I called the florist and she said she had reached out to Libbi on three separate occasions about the wedding flowers but she had never responded. Libbi promised to help me with the creation and ordering of the wedding invitations, yet provided no assistance. I sing
