She took care of scheduling all the rentals, kept everything organized so I knew who to pay and when, she was there for the entire event from setup to clean up and even got us a last minute, hard to find Marshall character at my request. Highly recommend! read more

One of my other friends is pregnant and they thoughtfully made sure the picnic was located at an area where restrooms could be easily accessible. This was our first picnic for a very special day and it couldn't have been more perfect. Thanks to Courtney and her team for going the extra mile! I just had to share some photos from this beautiful day! read more

Courtney and her team at Simply Radiant Events are AMAZING. We booked Simply Radiant Events for our wedding day coordinator as we had planned our wedding ourselves and really just wanted someone there to help things run smoothly. We found Courtney on thumbtack as we were a couple on a budget. Her prices are so fair and she really is the best. We had our first chat via phone and the whole vibe was just perfect. We had a Nerd Chic wedding and we needed someone who could see our fun little touches and still set a classic tone for the event. Courtney and her team hit it out of the park! She accompanied us on a full walk through with our reception venue and helped us navigate a few tricky spots with the caterer and baker. She helped us figure out day of timeline, coordinated the processional into the ceremony, worked flawlessly with both our church and reception venue, and provided vendor suggestions while being just so reassuring and sweet. She is quick to answer emails and is super open with communication. There were no hiccups at all on our wedding day and we are just so glad we had Courtney and Simply Radiant Events! 10/10 would hire her again for any event planning needs we may have in the future. read more

Courtney Lutkus coordinated my wedding this September. We started planning 5 weeks prior, yes 5 WEEKS not 5 Months :) Our wedding could not have been more successful. We had 150 people there and it was absolutely beautiful. I owe our wedding success to Courtney. Communication with her was so easy and accessible. She always responded immediately. She even spent the day with us going to different vendors, helped guide our questions and direct the conversations so we would get everything we wanted. She also made sure we were getting a good deal on everything. And probably my favorite thing about her was that I felt as though she was part of our family. She is so personable, down to earth, great at her job, gets everything done and more really quickly and is extremely proactive. She really cares about her clients and their happiness. We loved her so much we asked her to coordinate my baby shower/blessingway that's happening this weekend! She truly is amazing and I recommend her to everyone if you not only want your wedding to be a success but also want someone you can count on every step of the way. You're amazing Courtney!

Courtney was beyond amazing she was the event planner for my daughters wedding this past Saturday she was on top of everything. The day was perfect she arranged all the decorations ect.. With very little direction made sure all vendors were on time and handle any minor mishap with complete professionalism. She took care of everything allowing my daughter to relax and enjoy her day. The wedding would not have been as successful without her. She started her Saturday with us at 10:00am and did not leave the venue until midnight to make sure that everything was finished. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an event planner. read more

Courtney Lutkus is who you want working on your event, she's amazing. We had to scale our bi-annual user conference to support more customers than ever before, in a venue that was more costly than we had ever spent in the past. With customers coming thousands of miles to our event, the pressure was on to deliver an excellent experience. Courtney took on the challenge and excelled. She orchestrated the entire event and made it the most successful user conference in the history of iBASEt. How successful? We surveyed our customers to measure their satisfaction levels. Here's the scores on a 5.0 scale with 5 being excellent:: 4.45/5.0 on customer satisfaction; 4.25/5.0 on value of the event; 4.31/5.0 on amenities; 4.45/5.0 on services; and 4.45/5.0 on recommending the event to customers next year. Hiring Courtney was the best decision we made in planning the conference. read more

I was not feeling it with my wedding coordinator I hired and so I let her go. I looked on Thumbtack and did a search. Several people reached out to me with a quote. Some on the low end and some on the high end. For some reason Courtney with Simply Radiant Events stuck with me and I did some research pn her and her website and I met Courtney in September and hired her on the spot. My wedding wasn't until 8 months later which was this past April but Courtney was great to work with. She replied very urgently to any emails, and when she knew I was stressed out with some venue situations she was right there to jump in and help us. Weeks leading up to our wedding, Courtney reached out to our vendors (on her own) and assured us that everything was going according to plan and that was great and just what a bride would like to heat :) The day of our wedding my Husband and I were just so happy with how things came together! Our wedding just flew by so fast but without a hiccup at all. We all liked our centerpieces and Courtney set everything up so perfectly! So thank you so much Courtney for the Best Day Ever and I will refer you to people in the future!!!! :) read more

I had such a great experience with Simply Radiant Events! Courtney is efficient, quick to respond, professional, and very organized. We booked for day-of coordinating, but it was so much more than that. She kept me on task for the weeks leading up to the wedding and provided ideas and referrals based on our needs. She also advised on ways to save money and time. Our wedding was at an estate where everything had to be brought in... needless to say there was a lot of prep and set up. We had plenty of family members and friends helping, but Courtney had the overall day-of plan and lead well. Set up went perfectly, and it seemed that every time someone needed something... Courtney magically appeared. During the wedding, she kept to schedule and timeline very well, and handled any issues quickly and discretely. Courtney was simply a joy to work with, and I would recommend her in a heartbeat! read more
