I had a very clear vision in my head for what I wanted my wedding day to look like and it is as if the ladies of Whim crawled into my brain, sorted out the gazillion ideas I had floating around, and organized them into a very cohesive look. Every time I left meetings with Natalie and Moira I felt inspired, excited, and most importantly: less stressed!!! They are dream makers. The florals they provided for me were absolutely breathtakingly beautiful and guests are still gushing over them months later. Everything looked like a fairy tale. Natalie and Moira really knocked it out of the park and I am forever grateful.

We gave her some basic color & flower type guidelines, and then let her work her magic. The sample arrangements were amazing, and the real thing came together perfectly at our venue.

Can't wait to see what's in store for the future of Whim Events :-)

As a bride, I didn't need a lot of help on the creative side, but Mandy's help was crucial to getting everything executed. Without her organization and recommendations for vendors, I guarantee we would have arrived at our wedding day with a lot of enthusiasm and very little actual wedding Also, I appreciated throughout the process that when I wanted to go with my own vendor or DIY, Mandy was very open to those ideas- I never felt pushed to choose someone she prefers to work with or anything like that. As a fellow wedding vendor, we have collaborated since and it has been a joy to watch her creative design and styling process as well. Mandy has extremely chic taste, and yet she is a chameleon when it comes to creating events and inspiration shoots that are unique, creative, and show incredible variety. It is always a pleasure to work with her and see what she comes up with. I highly recommend bringing Mandy in to make your planning process as smooth as possible, resulting in the wedding you wanted, elevated.

We wanted the ability to be super present and not worry at all on the day of our wedding that every detail we had carefully planned was brought to life. Our coordinator Michele was extremely helpful keeping us moving forward with a detailed list of items to organize that we filled in over several months. She and Sarah were always available by email for questions, and when the day came, Michele was a rockstar. We had to make a difficult decision to move our wedding inside and she very professionally and empathetically guided me to make the right call. She was there to attend to every single need of ours from setting up the venue the way we wanted it to herding cats for family photos to ensuring I had water and snacks and food throughout the night. I has several guests tell me how effortless the night looked from a logistics standpoint and I cannot stress enough that was because of all the hard work that was happening behind the scenes. Michele's execution of our day was absolutely flawless and the peace of mind we got from having her was invaluable. 20/10 would recommend to a friend.

This hotel is an IHG property in Cambridge, and it is located a short walk away from the Charles River (love that dirty water!), Science Museum, and other touristy spots. Service was beyond exceptional from the cocktail hour, dinner, and beyond. Banquet staff were present throughout the partry and they quickly responded to any requests. The DJ kept the party rolling right up until the party ended. What a fantastic evening, and we thoroughly enjoyed celebrating our niece's wedding party at this beautiful hotel. One nit: We arrived early for pictures at 3:30 PM on Saturday, and the only lounge was closed? The only option for a cocktail was the minibar in the lobby. No thanks, but still a 5-star experience!

We enjoyed looking out the window to views of Zakim bridge. The Cambridge mall is within walking distance while downtown Boston is a short drive away. We also enjoyed the hotel restaurant the food was amazing. I would definitely stay here again when traveling with my pet.

From the start, I felt great about working with BG. I work for a small nonprofit, and when the time…read morecame to plan our 10th anniversary celebration, we found we were struggling with finding a caterer who could provide fun and interesting food without blowing our budget out of the water. You'd be surprised how many times we heard, "We cannot plan a party on this small a budget." Well okay then! But the folks at BG were wonderful-- so accommodating, so friendly, and genuinely excited about working with us. The tasting was an experience. We walked in to find our names printed on a little welcome card in the lobby, and the table set for what turned out to be a really cozy and fun lunch with Michele and Caitlin. We were offered wine, chatted as the food was served, heard a little bit about each dish as it came out, and were sent away with packed up leftovers to share with the rest of the office. That was what sealed the deal, honestly-- we left their office confident in their ability to produce an event that felt like we wanted it to feel, and since we already knew they could stay within our budget, we were sold. Leading up to the event, I couldn't have been happier. It was my first time being in charge of an entire event for my company, and Michele was always available to answer my questions, promptly and with good humor. She made recommendations, always with an eye to matching style with budget consciousness, and even up to the day before the party was proactive about checking in to make sure every detail was seen to. The party itself (held at the Charles River Museum of Industry in Waltham) went off without a hitch-- our Executive Director used the word "perfect" more than once-- and once the cocktail hour started I was even able to relax and enjoy myself, knowing we were in good hands. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience working with BG, and recommend them without reservation.

How do I even begin to write a review for Paula Marrero and her wonderful staff, of Marrero Wedding…read moreand Events? In a word, Paula was a lifesaver. She not only managed virtually every logistical aspect of the event, but she helped hugely in navigating the emotional and psychological rollercoaster surrounding the planning of a wedding, and exponentially reduced the overall stress level. Paula is also one of the hardest working, and most professional people I've ever done business with. She was chief advocate, coordinator, negotiator, friend, and shrink all rolled into one! One doesn't fully grasp the magnitude of the multi-faceted coordination and attention to detail involved in planning a successful wedding, until you're in it. We were so grateful to have had Paula's years of knowledge and expertise guiding us, especially since there are no do-overs with a wedding! Plus, she knows just about everything there is to know about finding the best vendors that match one's style and budget. Every one she had us work with was perfectly suited. She completely understood my daughter and her husband's vision, was super responsive and very flexible. She allowed those of us involved with the planning to breath much easier. The proof is in the pudding, and all our guests said it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to, even weeks after the event. Best of all, the bride and groom had a blast, and wedding memories that will last them a lifetime! Lastly, I will say that Paula is one of the NICEST and real people I have ever worked with. She's a straight shooter and her sense of humor and personal support in every way made her so fun to work with and both my daughter and I now consider her a friend. As my husband said repeatedly during the wedding planning, "Hiring Paula was the best money we spent on this wedding." Truer words could not be spoken! If you are hiring a wedding planner, this lady is simply the best there is, hire her immediately, you'll be very happy and grateful that you did!
