Marie did such a beautiful job at making my cotillion beautiful as could be. She definitely…read moreexceeded my expectations. Because she worked so closely with our hotel she was able to help us contact the hotel. All the floral arrangements were beautiful,the tables set up were beautiful and the fixtures that we had like the canopy and the uplights were gorgeous. She was also there at our cotillion making sure everything ran smoothly. There was just one problem that I didn't like, I know for cotillions youre usually suppose to do slide shows as a special section for everyone to watch, but as someone who has gone to many debuts and cotillions, my sister and I specifically wanted it during dinner as the guest while they ate, because slideshows to us wasnt a big deal, we wanted it, but not something to take special time out of and do as a separate event. We did specifically tell her about this, and we made the slide show at least 20 minutes longer without music(so it would play with the music we wanted at dinner) BECAUSE we wanted it played at dinner, but it didn't. it played after dinner and after the performances, Other than that, Marie made our cotillion wonderful and I am very happy with the total outcome of the event.

Pravallika did a table set-up for our anniversary, it was a breeze to work with her. I was…read moresurprised how quickly she was able to set up everything and she has pulled off some of the pieces exactly from my inspo picture. She communicates every detail in advance and takes in a lot of notes.

I cannot say enough about how amazing Pravalika was in planning our Diwali celebration. From the…read morevery beginning, she came over to check out our home and backyard, offering creative ideas we would have never thought of. Honestly, I didn't realize how carefully she was listening to all our scattered thoughts as 3 of us hosting had different ideas... until the big day, when she magically brought every little detail to life. Ours was a day event and the lanterns she hung? Absolutely stunning - they captured the true spirit and sentiment of the festival. If you're looking for someone who's creative, thoughtful, and just a joy to work with - she's the one.

Planning an event can feel stressful and confusing -- but they make sure décor is one thing you never have to worry about. From offering multiple color palettes and theme options, to guiding you through different styles and layouts, they truly go above and beyond. They are so patient while you are making the decision and make sure the vision you have is truly brought to life! Their professionalism + creativity = perfection. Highly recommend them for anyone wanting an stress-free, stunning event setup!

Simply Lovely really made our wedding planning as simple as it could be! My wife and I didn't see…read morethe value in a wedding planner until we had one! Lindsay is the gold standard! We felt at ease the entire wedding. Very professional and helpful with bringing our special day to life! If you're getting married I 100% recommend getting a wedding planner.

I had my wedding at Nella Terra Cellars where I worked closely with Lindsay from simply lovely…read moreevents as well as Tannya for support! Lindsay is amazing and made our wedding day perfect! With every wedding there will always be some type of issue that arrives and with the bumps we faced, it was as if SLE worked magic and made everything better. Leading up to the wedding, Lindsay was so thorough and detailed and made sure to cover everything I did not know even needed to be covered - from placing our custome table numbers (also giving advice on what to use in case of strong winds), lighting our candles, tying the rose petal cones to the chairs, and tons of reception layout drafts. She asked many questions to make sure she understood what we were envisioning and had the most detailed notes I had ever seen! At the same time, she continued answering my 1000000 questions with lots of reassurance that everything will be more than OKAY. Even when we got scammed by a vendor, she was so empathetic and assisted us in what actions to take and other vendors we can look into! You can tell Lindsay is so passionate about her job and it shows with how loving and understanding she is towards the bride and groom, everyone that was a part of the wedding as well as our guests! Even my guests called out how organized and perfect everything looked - it was as if nothing at all went wrong. Lastly, I was also one of the brides who wasn't as organized towards the end of the process and started to be indecisive.. Lindsay was a hero and all my last minute wants/changes and requests were all answered and executed with excellence. So if you are looking for a dream team to coordinate your wedding and give you so much love, support , guidance and patience.. Work with Simply lovely events. You will not regret it at all!

Wow, where do I even start?! My husband Joseph and I wanted to save as much money as we could, but…read morewe also didn't want to lift a finger the day of our wedding. We decided to use Direct My Day, and let me tell you all - I could not have imagined having my wedding without them! We only used them for the reception portion of our wedding since we had our ceremony offsite. Saneta was amazing as the point of contact leading up to a month prior to our wedding. After that, Courtney A. was our main contact. She handled all the vendors and made sure everything was being taken care of. She was even a great person to go to when I needed to vent about anything! She would tell me that everything would run smooth and not to worry about other things and to relax. She was like my wedding BFF! Anytime I needed anything she was so quick to respond. If she missed my call she returned it within minutes. Things got hectic leading up to our wedding day, and we couldn't get all the minor details to her. She reassured me she would make everything look great, and that's exactly what she did! There was also another Courtney helping her the day of, and she was amazing too! My son wanted to sit with his cousins, but of course that day he changed his mind and wanted to sit with us at our sweetheart table. Courtney took care of it within minutes, and brought his plate of food. Both Courtney's treated us like VIP's and we didn't have to do a thing! They had to switch an item in the timeline because the sun was setting and BAM it was all taken care of. I can't thank Saneta, Courtney A., and Courtney enough for their hardwork and attention to detail. Joseph and I are so grateful for you 3 and love you so much for making our day perftect. If you are indecisive about using them let me tell you, HIRE THEM! You won't regret it!

This review is for Jackie and she really deserves 10 out of 5 stars if that were possible. She was…read morephenomenal in coordinating our wedding day and made everything run so smoothly. Really all we had to do was tell Jackie what we wanted, drop off all of our materials 2 days before, and leave it all up to her. She was professional, communicative, and caring. The one thing I REALLY appreciated out of Jackie, was that she was so lax on the day of our wedding. She ran things along so smoothly but also didn't keep us to a super tight schedule and let things run it's course naturally. Even though the reception seems long, it's a lot to fit in in a short amount of time but Jackie didn't rush us or make us feel like we needed to do things at the exact moment the timeline was laid out. I didn't once feel wound up and she made me feel super relaxed. She also decorated all of the tables beautifully and really put together what I had envisioned and planned for for months. It was executed perfectly and all of our guests kept complimenting the venue and decorations. She also packed up all of our stuff at the end of the night so we just had to hop into the limo. Jackie always checked in with me and made sure I was ok, hydrated and atleast ate something. She kept checking in on me like a big sister and it was so sincere. My husband and I are VERY grateful to Jackie, Saneta, and the direct my day team. Big thanks to a business that deserves all the stars they deserve.

My wedding venue coordinators recommended Barbara and her team as they've worked with her on…read morenumerous occasions. During my initial conversations with Barbara, I wanted to get a sense of the decor options she could offer based on what I was envisioning (she could really make anything you want happen!), but I felt it was beyond what my budget would allow for so I was already accepting that maybe we won't get to have the decor I want after all. She truly understood the look and ambiance I wanted to create, though, so we talked again a few times via email, phone, text (there was a lot of sending pictures and examples back and forth) and we worked out some scaled back options that could fit within my budget. On the big day, Barbara came alone and set the decor up all by herself as her team was out because my wedding was on a major holiday weekend. She was fast! I also had some extra decor items that I didn't know what do with so she helped set those things up, too. I didn't see the room at all until the wedding party reception entrance, and when I walked in, the decor looked amazing! She delivered exactly what we discussed and more. I was so happy, and I am so thankful I booked her and that she was available for my wedding day. Thank you Barbara for working your magic!

This lady goes the extra mile for her clients. we were having a mad hatter tea party theme in my backyard, and this wasn't intended to be a lavish party, a quaint gathering of my closest friends, but she certainly made it above and beyond your typical teenage party. The decorations were gorgeous! She provided us with perfect pink fabric drapery (to hide the not-so-pretty part of our yard like the trash cans, and the lawn mower) which ended up being the perfect backdrop for my pictures, beautiful ribbon to line our fence with (instead of tacky crepe paper) and set the tables to perfection. She mapped out the whole yard, into the buffet area, the game area, the table where we would eat, when she was finished it looked like a scene from a Disney movie! She also worked with us and some of the decorations we had already bought to make sure the colors matched perfectly. In addition, she made sure everything was to our liking before she left my house. Along with going above and beyond she had a boot on her foot that day as if it had been injured, and brought at no cost extra decorations for the entrance. My guests were so impressed, as was I with the decorations! I'm definitely planning to calling on Barbara again, I know I won't be disappointed!
