She even texted me on the day of my wedding and told me the weather was predicted to be nice enough for the outdoor garden ceremony! Rehearsal, the day before the wedding, was very organized and ran efficiently. Jennifer was on top of everything and executed everything seamlessly on my wedding day, as well. She handled a potentially crisis situation with the flowers with ease and I never even know about it until after the wedding was over. She communicated with all my vendors and organized an extremely detailed timeline for everyone to follow on the wedding day, which made everything go so smoothly. She came by and checked on us periodically throughout the wedding reception to ensure we had everything we wanted to eat and drink. She also packed us a "to go" box for us to eat later on! I can honestly say that my wedding day was absolutely perfectly in every way and a lot of that was because of Jennifer. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a wedding planner!

So many changes had to be made multiple times, and I am amazed by how smoothly things ran anyways on my wedding day. Tara's bubbly and upbeat personality was also such a help to me during an incredibly stressful time of changes. My parents also were absolutely thrilled with her and all of the planner's help. In addition, she did a great job pulling things together that I left very open ended (I frequently said things like, can we just make it like, nice, and wedding ish? And they came out fabulous!) In the end our Wedding was beautiful and memorable in a good way despite world circumstances. Thanks again to Premier Party Planners!

The best part about hiring Sally was not having to worry or communicate with any vendors on the day of the wedding. She did such a great job organizing everything and keeping people on the timeline that our ceremony was actually ready to go a few minutes early. We as a couple felt so supported and couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner.

We hired Priscilla about a year before our October 2013 wedding. Upon meeting her my mom, (now)…read morehusband and I loved her! We knew her focus was on her customers: the bride and groom and this planning was about marriage. She has her priorities straight in this world that often finds wedding vendors thinking of you and your special day as their art project and their vision. Trust me...we met enough crazy vendors during the wedding process to know someone with their head on straight about marriage! Priscilla made our wedding come together in wonderful ways! Our wedding was everything we ever dreamed of and more. She helped us mostly with day of planning, selecting and communicating with vendors and making recommendations throughout the process. During wedding planning crazy-ness she made myself and my mom feel comfortable with all aspects of the process. Being a project manager and graphic designer at a busy publishing company, I had little time to focus on the smaller details of the wedding. I wish she could still help me plan out my weeks at work!! Priscilla had an answer and a solution to any questions or concerns we had. I definitely recommend having a day of coordinator at the very least! My mom and dad wanted to enjoy the wedding and not worry about details like making sure the caterer arrived on time, everyone walked down the aisle in order, coordinating the setup of the ceremony, dismissing tables to eat, etc. And things you think won't go "wrong" will sometimes. It doesn't matter how many spreadsheets or phone calls you make before the wedding either. For instance, the cake my husband and I were to cut didn't arrive for whatever reason from the baker. Priscilla was there to fix it on the spot. She was so calm and came over while we were eating dinner and asked us what our favorite cupcake flavor was. Priscilla quickly re-organized the cake cutting into a cupcake cutting! I was so caught up in the joy of marriage, love, being surrounded by family and friends that I totally forgot we had ordered a smash cake to cut! Priscilla made it work without it being a big deal. It all worked out as we got to enjoy the cake the next week when the baker delivered it! And, as a project manager myself and working with 60+ clients at a time...she does work on your wedding behind the scenes and as certain deadlines near, she will respond promptly and you'll find your concern was already taken care of. I don't respond within 1 hour of my clients calling me about their project that is printing in 6 months or in a year. Of course, I do try to respond within a few days, but like everyone else in the world your best friend is prioritization! Just make sure you have your expectations in order when booking any vendor wedding or what have you in your life. I highly recommend Priscilla and her team. She is very personable and knows what weddings are truly about! Plus, she gets stuff done! :-)

We hired Priscilla just a few months before our fall wedding & we absolutely fell in love with her…read more The first thing we really noticed (and LOVED) about her was how prompt & prepared she was. She was early to all of our meetings which is a big plus! She was very attentive & got to know us so that she could incorporate aspects of our personality into our ceremony. Every little idea she came up with thoroughly impressed us. She worked very well with our budget, using her various connections to get us the highest quality at the lowest price. She spent alot of time listening to our ideas and making suggestions. Our ceremony was a dream come true. Priscilla saw to each detail so that we were virtually worry-free the entire day.She is amazing at what she does and is destined for greatness in her field. For someone so young, she is extremely dedicated, professional and passionate. We would recommend her for any event you plan on having people talk about for weeks, months & years!

They have a large network of contacts and vendors to give us many different options and types of choices. They built and created all of our décor including all flowers arrangements, on the wedding cake, bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages, dining room centerpieces and reception room decorations, all of which were incredible and wonderful so much we received many compliments.

If you are looking for a professional and a coordinator then I would highly advise that you do NOT…read morego with On Cloud 10 events. Amanda Richardson is extremely unprofessional and does not follow through with anything she says per her contract. She made the wedding planning process unnecessarily more difficult and that is not what any bride is looking for I hired her as a coordinator for my wedding and when I would text or email her she was not timely in her response even though her wedding planning business is her full time job. She recently had a baby and she promises it won't get in the way of anything that a bride may need. Prior to the wedding there was potential chance for rain and Amanda's constantly would bring up stressful scenarios via text. She also yelled at my now husband on the phone when he was calling to get an answer from something she had not responded to me on. On the day of my rehearsal she brought her 3 month old baby and was inattentive and unable to perform her duties which required me stepping in and leading the rehearsal. All of my bridal party complained about her lack of organization and every vendor mentioned that she was very abrasive, Rude and difficult to work with. On the day of my wedding despite multiple reassurances that it would be stress free and I wouldn't know if anything would go wrong, she repeatedly called me and my moh. She didn't make sure we followed the timeline she created she didn't set up the decor properly. She even came up to me to let me know my camera battery had died and what would I do , luckily the dj had a spare. She was absent pretty much the entire reception and her response was she was going back and forth from two cabins onsite of the venue in which she only needed to go one time to bring a change of clothes and only brought the brides and not the groom. She was not needed in either Cabin and We had to send the dad to retrieve the change of clothes. We also had to ask our guests to tell other guests to find their seats because amanda was missing again. Amanda told me if I didn't pay for her meal to eat at the wedding she would need one hour to eat dinner. I paid for her and her assistant to have a meal and they ate that meal and then went to get McDonald's and were once again not at the reception. Multiple vendors were looking for amanda so instead I as the bride had to handle everything I hired her for. Towards the end of the evening amanda was once again missing and my family started packing up and loading up their cars. Then amanda jumped in to help, we were missing items and they were never packed with our decor. The best ending to this disaster of a coordinator is I also rented an arch with fake flowers on it. Since amanda was nowhere to be found, the staff at the venue started cleaning and accidentally threw away the flowers. At the end of the night when she was dropping off the decor that my family hadn't brought over she had the audacity to ring the doorbell of my parents house and demand that they pay a couple hundred dollars for the fake flowers that were thrown out due to her negligence. This company is a joke, she will charge you a lower price and offer discounts to pay her off earlier so that you're trapped to keep her as a coordinator and it's too close to the wedding. The best part is if you tell her anything she does wrong she will threaten to transfer you to another random coordinator because she only wants 5 star reviews. When I booked her she had reviews on Facebook and it seems she recently took them down most likely due to bad reviews.

We hired Amanda to be our day of coordinator for our August 22nd wedding. Upon first meeting with…read moreher, we were impressed with her willingness to go the extra mile; however, as time went on and we started having differences of opinions, we feel that Amanda overstepped professional boundaries. While working as our coordinator, Amanda reassured us that she would make our day perfect, but in our opinion, was unable to do that. She wanted us to hire an additional assistant less than two weeks before the wedding, stating that she couldn't perform her duties without one (only family members and close friends attended), despite saying she would make our day stress-free for almost a year. We had last minute vendor changes due to suggestions Amanda made, which caused us to extend our already tight budget. Due to not being able to hire an assistant so close to the wedding, and not being able to come up with compromises that satisfied her enough for her to attend our wedding, we decided to let Amanda go. From there, things went even more downhill and we feel Amanda has overstepped many boundaries in the way she continued (and continues) to be involved, despite no longer working for us. After letting Amanda go, communication with her often turns into arguing; we feel like our voices and views aren't heard, and seems to us like Amanda has a defensive, aggressive, and threading attitude about whatever we say. Even though she was helpful with a few aspects of our wedding, we feel that overall working with Amanda made our planning process way more stressful and taxing than it needed to be. Our day ended up going smoothly thanks to family members who attended (whom Amanda was not going to let help with any aspect of the wedding) and we feel the day was better with her not being there. From one bride to another, we feel like a more established and professional company would be more of an asset in helping your planning and wedding day go smoothly, and do not recommend hiring Amanda/Iris Ophelia Wedding + Events.

She was incredibly organized and easy to get ahold of. The support she provided to both the wedding and us as a couple was phenomenal. We truly valued her role in the wedding not just as a talented professional, but as a overall great person - when the wedding was all wrapped up we both agreed that working with Kaisey was something we'd miss.
