Jeanenne and her team were absolutely excellent. I actually got married almost 9 months ago, so…read morethis review is extremely overdue. I worked with Jeanenne for a majority of the lead up to our wedding. Aside from being reasonably priced, the communication was amazing. I'm an organized person, but not the best with timelines and Jeanenne understood this and kept me on track. She provided advice when I had questions and gave me input based on her experience. Not to mention, she was pregnant throughout most of this and had her beautiful baby in the lead up and was still fully available and responsive, which was comforting for us and just impressive overall. I could go on and on, but I think this gives a pretty good idea at what I am getting at. On the day of, Jeanenne and her team were outstanding. From directing our crazy families around, to getting everything set up and flipped from the ceremony to the reception, I wasn't concerned one bit. They even organized having the caterer bring my husband and I cocktails and the food from our cocktail hour, so we didn't miss a thing. They also took it a step further and made sure to get me to eat something throughout the night, which I really did appreciate (especially given the drinking that was occurring). Needless to say, my wedding would not have gone as smoothly (or probably even happened) without La Bella Planners.

I've worked with La Bella Planners (LBP) twice. Both times I was so happy that I had hired them…read more They made sure I enjoyed my events as much as the guests did. My husband and I decided to get married in Chicago. I wanted a simple wedding with good food and beverages and originally decided to do all of the planning. I had a bare minimum list of what needed to be done and I had a fixed budget. With 2 and a half months to go and lots left to do I called LBP. They delivered a wedding that was everything I wanted, but better. I was able to focus on being a bride. I enjoyed the details that they put in, the regular updates via email and calls, and the day of service. I was blown away by the decor, LBP was absolutely right about the florals. The services provided included: - budgeting with what was left of the original budget to include things I had left out: - florals - place cards - menus - day of food options - recommending hair, makeup, photographer, florist, and transportation company - a trip to chicago to meet with all vendors - review of all contracts - day of coordination (included runs for red bull, wrangling groomsmen, dealing with all vendor questions) - coordination of transportation for bridal party and out of town guests - working with my officiant (friend) to ensure she felt prepared In 2011 my father and I planned a surprise party in NY for my mother. At the time I lived in Seattle and he was in NY. LBP went above and beyond to handle all our asks including: - food everyone would eat - a location with parking - Long Island venue (for ease of commute) - a well stocked bar (my family loves wine but I prefer bourbon) - a Jazz band to sing "Fever" during dinner - a Haitian DJ - 11/11/11 event date The party was amazing, they delivered everything and then some (flowers, theme, favors, tipping guidelines, ATM runs!, a children's room for some energetic cousins)

I threw a company mingle today for an office of 35 and Faith was our sommelier/pseudo-event planner.

I was proud to have Faith at our event and I look forward to working with Faith again.

Melisa planned an exceptional day for our daughter's Bat Mitzvah at the Loading Dock. We began…read moreworking together about 12 months before the event and she helped us choose a venue, DJ, decor, favors, swag--she even helped zip up my gown! Melisa navigated our challenging request for a Kosher-catered kids' party combined with an Abigail Kirsch-catered adult party. She was able to attend to these dietary needs with ease and sensitivity so that everyone felt accommodated. She also helped us figure out the event timing while respecting our Orthodox guests' needs around Shabbat. Melisa only recommends well-vetted vendors and was able to introduce us to several at different price points to meet our budget. We loved all her vendors and were impressed by their professionalism and coordination. Melisa speaks fluent teen-ease. She knows all the latest trends for swags, games and decor, and was also able to tell us where we could save and where we should splurge. When Melisa broke her ankle a week before our event, I was worried. But she fully delivered--on wheels! In a scooter, she still managed to make sure every detail of our event went smoothly and on time. I expected there to be mistakes, but honestly, every element of the party was perfect. She coordinated the day-of timing beautifully and made sure I remembered to pack all the little items. Our family was truly able to be present at our party and enjoy our guests. Most importantly, our daughter felt loved and special because of a perfectly planned Mitzvah.
