We are incredibly lucky to have worked with Ashley Baber. We began planning our wedding mid-2019…read moreand chose to postpone due to COVID the following year. Not only did she fully support our decision to do so, she went above and beyond in helping us plan a last minute elopement for 2020. We adored every vendor she suggested, and both weddings went off without a hitch. She had all emergencies covered. Forgot the flower girl baskets at the hotel with the ceremony 5 minutes out? No problem! She had extras in her car. My dog getting muddy paw prints all over my dress? Ashley had special wipes that made everything look good as new. She even had a sewing kit on hand for dress malfunctions. I can't say enough wonderful things about her services, and Ashley as a person. I would recommend her to anyone.

Ashley Baber was the best money we spent throughout our entire wedding planning process…read more Planning a wedding for 200 people is one of the most stressful things we have ever done, but Ashley kept us sane and focused on the joy of the day. We could only afford to hire her as a day of coordinator, but she went above and beyond to help us through every phase. She quickly understood what our vision was for the event was and did everything in her power to make it a reality. She is decisive (when you can't be), ready with a trusted vendor recommendation (when you need it), extremely professional and has a good eye for what's hot (and what's not). She also has a wickedly good sense of humor. She is also fabulous at negotiating prices with vendors so I suggest you get that package if you can swing the cost. We couldn't, but Ashley still helped us get a good price with certain vendors and even came to my dress fitting although I'd already used up the consultations included in my package. In response to the other reviewer: it may take her a little while to respond to emails because she has other clients with weddings taking place before yours. But she always got back to us in less than 48 hours with very detailed responses and her response time was even faster--mere hours--during the last month of the planning. I cannot imagine what the planning would have been without such wealth of information just an email away. Unlike some other planners I've heard stories about, Ashley worked behind the scenes on our wedding day to make everything ran smoothly and only came to us with questions when it was absolutely necessary. You have no idea how important this is. We got to spend time with our family, friends and each other instead of worrying about the small stuff. As a result, the entire event was a success and everyone is still raving that it was the most fun and beautiful wedding they have ever been to. We had a blast too! We would absolutely hire her again without any hesitation and enthusiastically recommend her. She is the best of the best!

My husband and I were married at the DeKalb County Historic Courthouse, and Courtney was on their list of preferred coordinators and florists. While doing my research, her excellent reviews and transparent pricing immediately stood out. From the very beginning, I felt confident that she truly understood my vision--and she brought it to life beautifully. One thing I truly appreciated about working with Courtney is that she does not nickel and dime you. She was always upfront about costs and actively looked for ways to save us money without sacrificing quality or style. She offered thoughtful suggestions and alternatives that stayed within our budget, which made the entire planning process feel honest, supportive, and stress-free. Courtney and her team went above and beyond to make our wedding day seamless and perfect. Everything was handled with such care and professionalism, and our wedding day was truly everything we hoped for. I am so thankful for Courtney and her amazing team. I would recommend Courtney again and again without hesitation!

Hiring Peachy Keen was the best decision we made when we decided to get married…read more Don't believe the rumors, wedding planning can be an absolute BLAST, stress-free and an enjoyable experience but only if you hire Peachy Keen. We hired Courtney as our partial planner, florist and day-of coordinator and we owe so much of our perfect wedding day to her. I do plenty of event planning for clients in my own job so I did EXTENSIVE research on every planner in the area and from the very first phone call, I immediately knew my partner and I were in the best hands. Planning: Courtney was on every single detail and helped us to design a venue where we needed to bring in all of our own vendors. She was responsive, flexible, attentive and has excellent contacts with the best vendors when we needed recommendations. She provided honest feedback and helped us to stay within our budget which we so greatly appreciated. When we shared some of our more creative ideas and non-conventional ways to have our day, Courtney didn't bat an eye and immediately went into figuring out how we'd get it done. For all of her services, her pricing structure is extremely competitive. I was so particular about certain details and in meetings, I'd mention something once and the next moment, Courtney had it in our file. Florals: My jaw literally dropped when I first walked into my venue on the big day. I had given her my Pinterest board for some initial ideas and she HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK. I cried when my bouquet was handed to me, it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. From our chuppah, aisle, bridesmaid bouquets, centerpieces and all the small details, Courtney and her team nailed it and are insanely talented. Day-Of Coordinating: Courtney will know what you need even before you know you want it. She thought of EVERYTHING and my husband and I felt so cared for and looked after. She bustled my dress, she had food waiting for us after the ceremony in a private room, she showed me how to hold my bouquet, she timed everything perfectly, and so much more. From her extensive experience with weddings, she anticipated everything I or our bridal parties could ever need. I didn't lift a finger on my day. Her calm, fun and lovely personality was just a joy to have around. This review alone could never do her and her work justice. She is truly passionate and genuinely loves what she does and it is so apparent in her work. Courtney went ABOVE AND BEYOND and did it all with a smile and wonderful energy. We can't stop getting compliments from all of our guests on what a fantastic job she did with our wedding day. Highly, highly recommend.

I booked Marina as my wedding event and design coordinator for my wedding. I had seen many events…read morethat she had executed flawlessly so I knew that I wanted to have her special touch make my vision come true. At our initial meeting I pulled in to her cottage with plenty of parking in the rear and when I walked in, it was like a fairytale inside. She had tables, seating, columns and chandeliers already set up so you could see samples of her work. She also had invitations, faux cakes and photos from her suggested vendors as well. I knew immediately she was the woman for the job. She offered me a drink and we sat down. She noticed I was pregnant and made me feel so comfortable. I told her with being pregnant I didn't want the stress of planning the wedding to affect me or my baby. She assured me that she would make my wedding day the most memorable, beautiful day ever. Marina showed me tons of ideas and she also listened to mine she helped me decide on exactly what I was looking for. She walked me through several decor ideas and helped me find the perfect venue. She said she would get everything started as far as the venue and decor planning right away and we scheduled our next meeting. We only needed to meet very few times throughout the planning process because Marina is a veteran at this game, she knows decor, venues and vendors so she can basically make anything happen if you just let her know your needs. On the days leading up to my wedding I was calm and comfortable that she would be able to execute all of my details. I was able to incorporate all of the ideas I had but in a very beautiful way. The day of my wedding was absolutely magical from the moment I walked in my bridesmaids and I were taken to the bridal suite and given the most beautiful hand made bouquets to walk down the aisle with. She had everything all set up in the bridal suite to make my fiends and family so comfortable. She interacted so well with my family, they loved her. She was very organized on the day of and managed the time line perfectly. The wedding started right on time and my guests didn't have to wait at all. When I walked down the aisle I was absolutely captivated by how magical and beautiful everything looked. I couldn't believe I was actually living out my dream wedding. She did things with my initial vision that I could have only imagined. The ceremony was beautiful but the reception was even more amazing. The place settings, chairs and center pieces were to die for. Everything had so much detail all the way down to the floor. She really knows how to pull it all together. She made sure all the vendors were on time and on point I honestly didn't worry about any of the details on the day of. She made sure to include all of the special moments so mentioned and took good care of my family throughout the night. If you're looking to have your dream wedding no matter the ideas you may have she can make it happen. If you're worried about the planning details like hotel, venue, cake and who will be your officiant or even your caterer, Marina and her team walk you through the entire process without worry. You can be yourself and she doesn't dismiss your vision. She is a pleasure to work with an she loves family. Check out my pictures below and feel free to contact me with any questions about my wedding experience with Marina events and design studio. I won't be getting married again anytime soon but any other events or friends that need a referral will all be sent to Marina. Thanks again Marina you're family now and we love you and your amazing team!

She put my mind at ease right away. I know my wedding was a lot to handle due to us having four events total and three were in one day, but Marina wasn't phased and made it all happen. Not only did it happen, but it was better than I could have ever dreamed! She really does have spectacular taste! She went above and beyond in all aspects! I still cannot believe how beautiful our wedding was. She really did an amazing job and I cannot recommend her enough. Also, she offers floral services and her prices are extremely reasonable which is unlike many other decorators.

To top it all off, we had just about three weeks to plan the event and I ended up having to drop everything and travel due to a family emergency. Our home isn't particularly big and we had a lot going on, but Monica worked tirelessly to ensure that our timing and space concerns were addressed (to fit 40 for cocktails, sit-down dinner, games, and dancing). Monica put together an event our guests will certainly remember. From the decorative wall with the balloon arch, decorations and center pieces, the tables, table cloths, Chiavari party chairs, the bar, the DJ, and much more. Everything looked beautiful and our home was glowing! In addition, Monica helped coordinate the layout for the buffet. She also hired a bartender and DJ for us. As you might imagine, retaining a great DJ, in less than three weeks and during prime season is quite a feat. Our last guests left at 4:00 am - it was a huge success! Look no further - Monica is the party planner to hire!

Monica and her firm "Trendy Weddings" were referred to us by our wedding venue, Villa Christina…read more From the first call we knew we had found the perfect partner to assist in making our wedding day a wonderful occasion. You see, we are two brides and finding the right partner is often a challenge when they hear. Monica and her team never blinked an eye. They met with us and we shared our vision. In a matter of weeks, they were able to make our special day more than we could have dreamed. Every detail came to life from the décor to the amazing flowers. Monica and her team are warm, funny, professional and oh so talented. They guided us through every step. We would highly recommend Trendy Weddings for not just a wedding but for any occasion you may have to party.

They were very responsive, listened to what the bride and groom wanted, were on time, professional and our Club (Marietta Country Club) loved working with them. Now on to the music... OMG it was perfect. They played fun and lively music during the meal that worked really well because our guests could actually hear themselves to talk a while. Then when the dancing started, they notched it up and the fun began. They are really good at interacting with the dance floor and guests to make it lively. My guests loved the interaction. Our wedding reception was during the middle of the afternoon. Often this means people won't dance as much. NOT true....SFB made it happen. These guys and gals are all REALLY talented. None of that polyester boring wedding crooning going on here.... these folks can SING!! I have gotten just LOADS and LOADS of comments from our guests saying how much they liked this band. I will be using them again for other parties.

Words cannot express how my wife and I feel about our wedding planner, Jordan Xu, of Emily Jordan…read moreEvents (formerly Jordan Flowers of Wedding Belles). She is the best. We were truly lucky to have found her. Throughout our entire wedding planning process, we were very appreciative and grateful to have Jordan by our side. We relied on her heavily. Her guidance and support made everything about our wedding so much easier. We trusted her fully. We can't recommend Jordan and her team enough. Our wedding was April 15, 2022 at the Atlanta History Center. We first started working with Jordan in July 2018. Yes, we had been planning our wedding for about 3 years 9 months. No, we did not plan it that way. Our original wedding date was May 30, 2020. My wife and I had planned for a roughly two-year engagement and wedding planning period. Then of course, COVID happened. Our wedding was postponed twice: First, to May 7, 2021. Then, to April 15, 2022. Jordan was with us and supported us every step of the way. We went from planning a pre-COVID wedding to a post-COVID wedding. We went from in-person planning sessions to virtual planning sessions. We went from "normal" tastings to masked and socially-distant tastings. (BTW, the tastings - both for the food at the reception and for our wedding cake - were some of my favorite parts of the planning process.) We found Jordan after doing internet searches for Atlanta wedding planners. Jordan was one of multiple planners we contacted. One of the planners we spoke to wasn't a good fit. She recommended Jordan to us. Also, an Atlanta wedding photographer I know put in a good word about Jordan. After meeting with Jordan, my wife and I agreed, Jordan was an excellent fit. We immediately felt comfortable and jived with her. Coincidentally, Jordan and my wife went to the same college for undergrad (Emory) and Jordan and I are from the same part of North Carolina (Piedmont Triad). We've gotten along with Jordan so well that we consider her and her husband our friends. They are just really good people. Jordan is very professional and organized. With her years of experience in the wedding industry, particularly in Atlanta and with our venue and vendors, I knew we were in great hands. In general, my wife was more involved in the planning process with Jordan - she was more particular about certain details than I was. However, I think I was involved at an "above-average" level for a groom. I attended every meeting, but admittedly, tried to stay as hands-off as possible. Jordan was invaluable at securing appointments with the vendors that made the most sense to us based on our budget and preferences. Here were our vendors: * Venue: Swan House, Atlanta History Center * Florist: Unique Floral Expressions * Caterer: Affairs to Remember * Cake: Confection Perfection * DJ and MC: Andy of EuroAndy Events * Ceremony Music: Piedmont Strings * Furniture: EventWorks * Wedding Car: Ramblin' Reck from the Ramblin' Reck Club * Photographer: Leigh Wolfe Photography * Videographer: WedFlix * Bride's Wedding Dress: Sweet Elegance and Gizzelle James Couturiere * Bride and Bridesmaids Hair and Makeup: Scoobie West & Company * Bridesmaids Dresses: Bella Bridesmaids * Groom's Tux: TRIO Custom Clothiers * Groomsmen and Bridesman Tuxes: The Black Tux * Hotel: InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta * Trolley: Georgia Trolley Services * Dance Lessons: Fred Astaire Dance Studio (Durham, NC) * Planning Platform: Aisle Planner * Website, Registry, RSVPs: Zola * Paper Save the Dates and Invitations: Minted * Digital Save the Dates and Address Collection: Paperless Post Going through two years of postponements, we did have a couple vendors change due to life circumstances: (1) Our cake vendor changed from Lush Cakery to Confection Perfection. (2) Our dance studio changed from Daza Dance to Fred Astaire. A few of the vendors, we found ourselves. For example, I already had an existing relationship with TRIO, so I got them to do my custom tux. My wife and I already had our minds set on a Swan House wedding. Jordan made it happen. She and her team, along with many of the vendors we chose, have a lot of experience working together *and* working at the Atlanta History Center. So, for the most part, everything was quite easy. I think the hard part, at least for me as the groom, was decision-making on certain details (e.g. menu) and getting our guest list in order. In addition to securing the vendors that fit us best, Jordan and her team (including Sydney Woods and Gerard Wright) took care of so many details, I can't even begin to tell you; from reviewing and coordinating contracts and payments to little things on our wedding day, such as getting lip balm for my lips that were chapped from so much kissing. Jordan is a consummate professional. Simply put, Jordan exceeded our expectations and executed the wedding of our dreams. Check out our wedding trailer to see exactly what I mean: https://bit.ly/3laAY1h. Thank you, Jordan!

I cannot say enough good things about Wedding Belles. During wedding planning, I had asked my…read moregirlfriends who had recently gotten married themselves for tips and advice on what services they thought were helpful. The unanimous response was "hire a day-of coordinator." My husband and I had already done a lot of the planning so we didn't need a wedding planner but the idea of someone else handling all of the details in the days leading up to and on the day of the wedding sounded like a great idea. Hiring Jordan and Kristen was one of the best decisions we made and some of the best money we spent on the wedding. They were with me all day as I was getting ready, ran interference on the couple of inevitable hiccups that happened with guests and wedding participants, ironed my dress one more time, made sure we ate, and even played chauffeur since the church and reception venue were so close that we hadn't hired outside transportation. Above all, these ladies were calm and professional throughout the entire event. I can't imagine a better team to hire to help with your wedding.

I do not recommend Serendipity Bridal under any circumstances. Their so-called "customer service"…read moreand cancellation policy are an absolute joke. Yes, I understand they have a 24-hour cancellation fee. But here's what actually happened: I found my wedding dress the night before my appointment and immediately called and left a message to cancel -- both that night and again the next morning. I didn't want to waste anyone's time, and I followed their process responsibly. Despite that, they still charged me $50. When I called to explain, they claimed the fee is to "hold the spot" and that someone else could've taken it. Except -- they told me someone did take the spot off the waitlist. So why was I charged at all? It makes absolutely no sense. They weren't inconvenienced, they didn't lose business, and yet they refused to waive the fee. I spoke to both the manager and the owner, and neither showed a shred of understanding or flexibility. Every other bridal shop I contacted (six of them!) had the same cancellation policy -- and every single one of them waived it immediately when I explained the situation. That's called good customer service. Serendipity Bridal is rigid, money-hungry, and completely lacking in empathy. There are plenty of other boutiques that actually care about brides and won't nickel-and-dime you over nothing. I 100% do not recommend this place. Save yourself the headache -- go somewhere else.
