We can honestly say that, without Brittani Adams-Perret and her outstanding team at Unique…read moreWeddings, 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, the Unique Weddings team and Brittani's design arm, New Orleans Candlelight & Decor, who are all pros at making events like our wedding truly unforgettable.

Michelle was able to quickly know our taste and priorities. She had wonderful recommendations to make the day complete. We very much enjoyed our days spent with her in planning our wedding and she, Brittani, and Yasmin were excellent the day of. Our wedding was as gorgeous as we could have hoped for. These ladies took excellent care of us on the day of the wedding. They kept us on schedule all while providing a calming energy. During the reception they were at the same time in the background yet, making sure we all were having a great time and my husband and I always had what we needed. I cannot say enough about Unique Weddings in New Orleans. They really know what they are doing and are an asset to the whole endeavor from planning to the day of.

Sue and her team were absolutely phenomenal in making my son's wedding a truly magical experience…read more From coordinating the church ceremony and organizing the Second Line to ensuring every detail of the reception ran smoothly, Sue's professionalism and warmth shone through. Her attire was thoughtfully chosen--neat and practical--making her easily identifiable as someone there to assist, not a guest. The floral arrangements she created for the rehearsal dinner were stunning: lush, vibrant, and abundant. She even helped us repurpose them for the reception the next day, which was both beautiful and budget-friendly. Sue's pricing is incredibly reasonable given the quality, creativity, and personal service she provides. We're so grateful for her dedication and artistry. These events will be cherished forever thanks to her. Highly recommend!

Marinated grilled veggies, Cajun Jumbo Shrimp, Hawaiian Chicken Skewers, Blackened Redfish, a Mediterranean Salad and more. Best of all Katie's a wonderful person who was there herself to take care of anything we needed! I can't wait to celebrate my daughter's Grad School commencement!

First off the staff talked loudly through my ceremony. My guests were turning around shushing them. They played the wrong song when I walked down the aisle even after them confirming with me the correct song 5 minutes before hand. Still played the wrong one. I had to go up to the bar all night and get my own drinks (which is fine but I was told that we would have someone taking care of me and the groom) the staff was really rude. I called the next day to let the owner know everything that happened and she just said ok. Spend the extra money and go somewhere nicer. It's your big day. You will remember it forever.

Although I wanted to plan the wedding myself, I needed help on the ground locally (b/c I live in Chicago), as well as guidance regarding the different phases of the reception, etc. Between April & October we had several conference calls & one in-person meeting. I gave her copies of all the contracts w/ my vendors & she followed up w/ each one periodically before the wedding to confirm all the details were still in place. That by itself is fantastic & extremely helpful when planning 900 miles away! Once we landed in NOLA for the wedding, she was helpful & attentive & by my side 100%. I could ask her any question & she helped w/ innumerable details including but not limited to: tricky relative placecard arrangement, post-reception party decoration, & finesse-ing all vendors. Now that the wedding is behind us, she continues to help by shipping all our reception items back to Chicago so we didn't have to either check 5 bags nor scramble to find a FedEx store. Seriously she is incredible & you are doing yourself a tremendous disservice if you do not call her immediately to help plan/coordinate your wedding! Aimee, we couldn't have done it w/o you - a million thanks!

By the time the wedding came around I felt like Aimee was an honorary part of my bridal party. We couldnt have done it without her.
