I had a great experience with Mele Amore Events and especially with our lead planner, Nicole…read more Nicole was an absolute angel and amazing to work with! From day one she was always professional, organized, and communicative yet super friendly and personable. It felt like we were planning our wedding with a good friend who really cared about us. If it's within your budget to hire a professional wedding planner, I absolutely recommend you do it. For me, I was willing to cut our budget elsewhere to afford a wedding planner because I don't enjoy planning parties and had no interest trying to DIY plan one of the most important events of my life. Looking back now, hiring Mele Amore was the best decision we made. I had a family emergency come up the week of my wedding - my dad was hospitalized days before the wedding and wasn't able to attend. It was a scary and stressful time and I hope no other bride ever has to experience anything like that, but it's in moments like these where having a professional planner proves to be invaluable. It was such a relief to know that Nicole had all the wedding details handled so I could just focus on my family situation and on mentally preparing myself for the wedding day despite the sadness I felt. My dad obviously had a lot of roles in the wedding, but we were able to scramble to make alterations, which I thank my wonderful family and Nicole for stepping up and helping with. Nicole made all the necessary adjustments to the schedule and notified all of our vendors of the situation, so everyone was sensitive, kind, and comforting to me on the wedding day which really helped me feel better. It turned out to still be a beautiful and joyful day despite the circumstances and I am able to look back on my wedding day fondly - for that I will forever be grateful to Nicole and Mele Amore! Nicole was able to deliver the wedding we wanted within our discussed budget and I am still stunned to this day on how beautiful our florals and decor looked with the budget we had! The owner, Michelle, handles the designs and totally nailed the look we were going for: cozy, romantic, and luxe without being over-the-top or gaudy. I had so much fun going through mood boards and the mock-up with Nicole, but the actual reception design day of completely exceeded our expectations. On the wedding day, we had Nicole plus two assistants with us the entire time. They were all so great at keeping everything on schedule, getting people to where they needed to be, and stopping family members from mobbing us to take a million phone photos. Despite the stress leading up to the wedding, the actual wedding day itself went really smoothly and was pretty stress-free. If there were any issues on our wedding day my husband and I don't know about them, which is how it should be! Thank you so much to Nicole, Michelle, and the Mele Amore team for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but she made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Whether it was vendor coordination, managing timelines, or last-minute changes, she handled everything with grace and professionalism. On the big day, I didn't have to worry about a single thing--she had it all covered so we could be fully present and enjoy every moment. What impressed me most was her calm energy, quick problem-solving, and genuine care. It felt like I had a best friend who just happened to be an expert at planning weddings. Our guests are still raving about how seamless and beautiful everything was. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond to bring your wedding vision to life, i highly recommend Thee Soirée Collective. Hiring her was the best decision we made! Also the cake arrived to the venue completely destroyed! It fell over on the way in the car. Mariam was able to single handedly fix the cake by adding real flowers to hide the parts that were ruined and it turned out perfectly!

I hired Luxury Estate Weddings & Events (LEWE) for my wedding last year, and their…read moreunprofessionalism and unethical behaviors had caused me a lot of stress and a few sleepless nights. Please note that I'm quite an easy-going bride, and none of the stress came from the actual planning. I really wished someone who worked with them prior had warned me, so I write this as a warning to people who are considering to hire them. I was blown away with their nice website and pretty pictures, and wanted to have our wedding at a private venue - so we decided to go with them. However, after you sign that extremely detailed unbreakable contract for the "All Inclusive Wedding Package", it just went downhill from there. As it is an all inclusive package, almost every vendor is through them (e.g. caterer, photographer, DJ etc). In this case, even if (LEWE)'s services is not up to your expectations, you cannot fire them because they are tied to everything else. If you do 'fire' them, then you will have to forfeit all the money and vendors. It is a horrible position to be in, and by signing this contract, you are giving them all the power. I think from this stand point alone, it is enough for you to stay away from them. In addition, a lot of what the package offered was very basic/ bare minimum, for example they only include 1 hour open bar. To extend the open bar, they charge premium prices per guest. Yet, you will be stuck with their bar vendor. The caterer also told me the Hors d'oeuvre included only had 4 pieces per person, and that I (and every bride prior) had to pay for extra food to make sure their guests are full. They market themselves as having packages starting at 50k, however when you sign the contract there is a $1,500 non-refundable cleaning fee included- so even at the bare minimum, you'd have to pay $51,500. There were extra costs and upgrades (at a high premium) almost every step of the way. However, It really wasn't the financials that bothered me, it was the way LEWE handled it that just made me feel like i was getting scammed. Ultimately, because everything was 'included', they try to cut cost wherever they can so they can keep more of the money. They also tried to up-sell me, and snuck in extra costs. There was also company politics and the employees would argue and include me in those emails/ conversations - which was unprofessional. Look at the bigger picture: they always reuse vendors, so your wedding almost doesn't differ from any of their other clients. You pay premium for their services too (package starts at about 51k+, but it includes very basic things so no one only ends up paying that amount). I think the ideal way is to contact the private venue yourself and hire a wedding coordinator flat rate (no kickbacks). A good wedding coordinator will handle and coordinate all the vendors on your behalf. This way, every vendor is independent, and they are all held accountable. I've since spoken to friends who have had beautiful well-run weddings, and one of the top wedding coordinator (who had 13 assistants and sent weekly to-do lists, follow ups etc) charges $7k flat rate. That is way of a better investment, than paying 50k and getting up-charged along the way. I swear, with this plan I believe you can have a beautiful wedding that is more personalized to you, at almost half the cost. Feel free to DM me for more information.
