Hiring Kristin Doggett with Bellafare as our wedding planner was by far the best decision we made during the entire planning process. She was incredibly collaborative and supportive during the entire process, and the vendors she brought on were absolutely fantastic. Kristin has incredible taste and helped us put together an elegant event that exceeded my wildest expectations. We were lucky enough to have both Kristin and Lauren on site for our big day, and our family and friends continually came up to us commenting on how wonderful they both are. They are not only amazing planners, but amazing young women as well. They are both so smart, organized, sweet, talented...the list goes on and on. Any future bride would be lucky to work with this amazing team.

Amazing team to work with. If you want to feel like a guest at your own wedding, Bellafare should be your choice for Wedding Planning! They are on top of everything and very helpful.
LOVED working with them!

Kristin and Lauren were absolutely incredible to work with -- I had meetings set up with a few other planners, but cancelled them all after my meeting with Bellafare. We made the deal on the spot. They were stylish and professional, and I knew they would help make my vision (which was pretty specific) come to fruition. And they did -- our wedding was more than I ever imagined it could be.

After the thrill of being engaged settles down, I think most brides get overwhelmed with just how many decisions have to be made, no matter what size or style wedding you plan to have. Kristin and Lauren kept me right on track. They kind of made it a no-brainer, and when the time came, pointed me toward fantastic vendors who were a complete dream to work with. They made planning my wedding FUN, which it should be, instead of stressful, as it so often can be. They were responsive and helpful over the course of the entire year, and as a bride whose family lives 2,000 miles away, I felt way less alone in the entire process than I would have otherwise. They were there for every step, for every meeting, and for every question or neurotic email.

It also deserves mention that I got married 2 weeks after Hurricane Sandy. Bellafare had weddings that immediate weekend after (which they pulled off) but nevertheless, were right there to help me through the reorganizing and reconfirming in the wake of the storm. On the day of, they handled absolutely everything -- I have NO idea how I would have done it without them. I was able to hang out with my family and friends and enjoy the day, while they made the magic happen.

Kristin and Lauren have fantastic taste, wonderful industry insight and wedding expertise, and are genuinely just fantastic people to be around and work with. I would recommend them to ANY bride in NYC!
