One of my sister’s friend recommended Events on a Budget for wedding planning services and I’m SO GLAD she did! Sam and I got engaged in January and shortly after I contacted Events on a Budget to learn more about their services and packages. We both knew we wanted to get married within 6 months. Based on what I had heard from other brides, I thought a 6 month timeframe would be hard for selecting a venue, contracting all the vendors, sending invitations, etc. After our first meeting with Events on a Budget they reassured us that 6-months would be 100% achievable and they were right! Sam and I decided to go with a “Wedding in a Box” package that included the primary vendors (DJ, Photographer, Flowers, Videographer, caterer, cake, and wedding coordination). Once we signed the contract we were assigned Daniella as our wedding planner. Daniella was AMAZING! We had a kickoff meeting where she reviewed the package with us and then provided us a list of vendor options for the photographer and videographer. We then met at her office and had a super fun meeting with the florist to start selecting the décor and floral details. This also included table settings, etc. Soon after we did our food and cake tasting. Daniella coordinated EVERYTHING for us and had a detailed agenda for the day with addresses and exactly what to expected at each meeting. She noted every detail and feedback we gave on the food and cake and shortly after followed up with a perfectly summarized email. A few weeks after that awesome experience, we meet in the office again for a sample table setting. This was great to really get an idea of what the décor would look like for each table. Next we met with the remaining vendors (DJ, Photographer and videographer) so they could get to know us ahead of our big day! Again, Danielle coordinated EVERYTHING which made it so easy for Sam and I since we both have pretty demanding jobs. The last big meeting before the wedding what the full day coordination meeting. During this call Daniella walked us thru a minute by minute itinerary she put together, for a very detailed orientated person like me, this was INCREDIBLE. She remembered every note from our previous meetings and I felt like really truly understood what we were looking for. Throughout the wedding planning process Daniella made things fun, easy and was extremely organized. One of my favorite attributes was her honesty. When I asked her for feedback or recommendations her response felt like a friend was giving it. The best and most incredible part of the whole experience for Sam and was the actual wedding day. We were SO IMPRESSED with Daniella’s leadership, attention to detail, and overall ownership of ensuring a successful execution of our wedding day. Daniella was EXTREMELY ATTENTIVE throughout the night. She got us a plate of hors d'oeuvres so we could enjoy while we were taking our portraits, she continuously checked we had our favorite drink on hand, she got us our meal while we were going around the tables to say hi to our guests and remembered every single special request we made to her during the planning process. Our experience working with Events on a Budget, but especially Daniella, was absolutely PERFECT and took away so much stress! Even our wedding party and several guests shared with us how incredible the coordination and planning was! I promise, you won’t go wrong with Events on A Budget!

I used Events on a Budget for Day-of coordination and they were amazing! Melissa was so organized and helped us feel ready and prepared for each facet of our wedding. Despite being very detail oriented, I had never planned a wedding and it was very daunting to try considering all the aspects of the wedding that would make it a great day for us as well as our guests. This is where Melissa was so helpful in our pre-wedding meeting and put my mind at ease. She's quick, reliable, and offered great suggestions on items we were clueless about. On the day of the wedding, Melissa and Darlene made sure everything ran smoothly and I had multiple friends in the events industry tell me after the wedding that they were so impressed by them. We were able to enjoy our wedding day and all of these months later we talk about how this was the best money spent on our wedding because it meant we could be fully present in every part of the celebration. Thanks again to the EOAB team!

Simply put, hiring EOAB for our wedding planning was the best decision we made. The gratitude we have for Daniella is hard to put into words. She is the utmost professional, so warm, so organized and from the first time we chatted I knew she understood what my vision was. She spent the next 9 months helping me achieve it. An example that really stands out to me is that I really wanted a stage...I wanted the DJ and musicians we hired to stand out from the crowd and feel elevated. My now husband (!), an accountant -- a blessing and a curse lol -- couldn't comprehend the prices we were getting as quotes and furthermore, just couldn't justify it. At our Pre-Wedding meeting with Daniella at the beginning of April, she made one final call and got us an offer even Alex couldn't refuse. Our stage, as you can imagine, looked INCREDIBLE. I owe this to Daniella, 100%....among countless other things she did for us.
While we will miss her dearly, she holds such a special place in our hearts and our gratitude for her/EOAB is endless. There is not a bride I will meet that I won't send your way.
