However when I would ask her if certain vendors were available that I looked into, she would say no. When I did my research, I found that my selected vendors were actually available.

The bride, groom and family members (which can be the hardest to impress) are always raving about how smooth event planner Elizabeth Priya Kumar (owner) makes the entire process. They have an amazing eye for design and execution and have an awesome team of planners on hand to secure all aspects and areas of the event are perfect. This makes our job a whole lot easier because there is nothing better than working with a bride who is at ease the morning of her wedding day. We highly recommend Premini Events for your next special event...wedding, sweet 16, birthday, corporate and destination.

Jesenia planned my baby shower and I couldn't be more delighted with how it turned out…read more To begin with, the process was extremely easy. We had an initial meeting to go over what we wanted for the shower. She came well prepared and understood my vision immediately. I left feeling confident that it was going to be amazing. After that meeting, she took everything on with minimal outreach and questions, which was perfect for me. With such a busy schedule, I loved knowing that everything was taken care of! The day of my shower was so carefree. I only had to worry about getting ready and showing up. What a treat! Of course, when I arrived, everything was PERFECT. She captured my style and vision perfectly. It was so beautiful I got emotional. She considered all the details and had the schedule perfectly coordinated. Everyone was commenting on how beautiful all the details were. I was able to sit back, relax and enjoy the great company... as a pregnant women, that's golden! Having Pursue Pretty Events plan my shower was a great decision. Jesenia is extremely creative and thoughtful. She also extremely professional and timely. She's able to capture the person she's planning for and doesn't try to impose her own style. She only enhanced what was already on mind. She's amazing and I recommend her to everyone!

Jesenia has a structure that allows us to communicate the things that are most important to us to make our events feel personal. She takes her time to understand what we want while guiding us with her expertise on having a wonderful event. We've hired her to plan out wedding and with that service came the events leading up to the event. So far we've had our engagement party (which was executed to perfection with a short time frame) and scouted venues for our destination wedding. Jesenia has had excellent communication to ensure all vendors and venue appointments are set up, all extras are purchased ahead of time and set up prior to us getting to the venue, all invites and RSVPs were sent out on time and that we're staying on track with our overall timeline so we never feel overwhelmed with the process. Hiring her was the best decision we made. Knowing that we can just walk into our event and we can enjoy it because all the details have already been taken care of is exactly the peace of mind we were searching for. If you want your Pinterest party dreams to come to life, Jesenia is the event planning fairy godmother you need in your life!

I was married on 10/7/2023 and Details Made Simple (Carla) made sure it was the most beautiful, and least anxiety provoking day. I had previously booked a Day Of Coordinator in March 2023. This DOC promised me the world and more for my October 2023 wedding. We'll fast forward to August 2023 meeting with my venue, I was alone and freaking out. My DOC (not Carla) bailed on me for the venue meet, and made me feel like I was panicking for no reason with a timeline that will be formulated week before wedding. (Again not Carla) Thanks to my maid of honor coming through with an amazing recommendation, I was given Carlas's number after feeling defeated and upset with my previous DOC not supporting me or showing up for me when necessary. After 2 hour conversation with myself and my mom, I immediately felt at ease with Carla. My concerns were validated as "No way should a timeline be started 1 week before event". With many tears had during our initial conversation, that night I slept the best I had in all my wedding planning with Carla coming to my rescue and the rest is history. Details Made Simple is just that, Details Made Simple. From hiring (DMS) that August evening to my wedding on October 7, 2023, I was in The best hands Possible!!! We had a few phone calls in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and the month leading up to the wedding, myself and Carla were in contact regularly. She never hesitated to answer and email, a text or a phone call. I received updated timelines in my email on the regular, she contacted any vendors with whatever tasks were still not done, to her absolutely loving on my 3 year old niece on my wedding day, Carla was like having an extremely organized "family"member take charge and make sure myself, my husband and my bridal party had nothing to worry about on the wedding day. I can not speak highly enough about DMS services, professionalism and overall delivery of event planning. Carla, I am forever grateful to you! P.S. Carla was not available for my rehearsal at the church, but we had her team member Shadé. Also AMAZING. We were not an easy group and she got EVERYONE in place and running our ceremony as it was supposed to be. Thank you Shadé for being there for us!

Fantastic event at YCI!…read more I had a great experience at YCI! My sister recently held her wedding here, and it was obvious from the moment we were greeted by Dee that we were in expert hands. The space is large and convenient, but the real highlight was the hospitality. Parking: It can be a little tough since there isn't a dedicated lot right at the door, but there is one within a short walking distance. I highly recommend YCI to anyone looking to host an event in NJ. I'll definitely be back!

She maintained excellent communication skills and elegantly constructed a meeting to finalize all the details that were requested for my Tiffany & Co theme. I recommend You're Cordially Invited to any individual/family!

She had "other brides" she was tending to, and I understood. However, when my time did come, she dropped the ball on the following tasks: -communicating with my bridal/groom party in a timely and professional fashion -arranging the table numbers (many complaints from guests) -transporting my wedding portrait to the venue without hassling me -family pictures with bride & groom at reception -communicating with respect to stressed out family members (M.O.B & cousins) *and most importantly, failing to hire a back up assistant so she wasn't overwhelmed. Her assistant cancelled last minute, understandable. But this is where professionalism plays a big part. As a person who is not in the industry, even I know it is common sense to have someone on standby for such hiccups. She was accommodating to me when it came to my nerves, however that not the only thing I needed accommodations for. A little tip, a client never wants to see her Coordinator feeling bombarded or flustered. This experience was not worth our money.

When we met with Terrian the connection was immediate. Even my husband liked her and he's a tougher critic than me! Throughout the planning process she morphed from a planner to a friend talking me off the ledge when needed and giving me a dose of reality when my visions got bigger than our pockets! However, my vision was executed beautifully and Terrian was also very creative with her ideas - we made a great team! From the rehearsal dinner to the ceremony and reception, people cannot stop talking about this wedding, the details and how magical it was. I highly recommend Terrian and her team!

My first meeting with Raquel was great. She is very personable, knowledgeable about the business, and I knew I could trust her in ensuring me and my husband's special day went without any problems. Raquel made sure she was prepared by reading through all contracts to make sure nothing was missed and preparing the day of timeline. She made sure that our vision came true the night of our wedding. There were so many moving parts, Raquel did an amazing job to ensure that everyone was sticking to schedule. Raquel also coordinated with all of my vendors. That was the main reason why I hired Raquel, to make sure that the day of the wedding, the vendors were all knew their part, were to go, vendors showing up on time, how each of them effected one another's services and how everyone would come together as a team to make it one unforgettable night. Raquel was able to do just that so that me and my husband did not have to worry about anything but enjoying our day. Raquel went above and beyond, and even helped me find the bustle on my dress which was such a struggle for the both of us! She was always right there if my husband or I needed anything, even making sure that we ate. Raquel also attending our rehearsal the night before the wedding and did such a great job with leading and directing my bridal party with where to walk, and the pace, while playing the songs we had chosen for the ceremony. Raquel's fees are very reasonable and fair with the outstanding level of service she provides. If I were to host another large event, I will definitely consider hiring her again! Do not hesitate to reach out to her, you will not be disappointed!!
