The best wedding planner!

Wow! Words cannot describe how incredible of a job Debra and her team did leading up to and on my wedding day. There were so many things happening that required coordination and everything came out perfectly. We felt so taken care of. The entire wedding party was able to be in the moment for the whole day because Debra and her team were so on top of every detail. Every team member was always one step ahead of what we needed at all times. Throughout the night there was always someone making sure we had what we needed and were having the best time possible. For example, my husband started taking off his jacket mid-party and someone was already reaching out to take it and put it in his tux bag, then handed it to him on his way out. So seamless. When I needed to take off my heels, my sneakers were already waiting for me under my seat and they helped me quickly change so I could get back to the party ASAP. It just felt like all of the little (and big) details were perfectly choreographed, and there are too many examples to list here. I almost wish I could get married again so I could have another perfect evening, and I owe so much of it to Debra and her team. THANK YOU so much to each and every one of them. I would recommend any couple to not think twice about hiring Debra and her team - you will be in AMAZING hands.

The Wedding Whisperer

Working with Debra is a dream come true. I am the mother of the bride and am in awe of how Debra and her team produced my daughter's wedding this past weekend. She is so organized and has an answer to every question and detail. We had over 220 people and nothing fell through the cracks. Her meticulous attention to every detail is unparalleled and she is so responsive to emails/texts/calls. She was also there to save the day when we needed to get a new rabbi less than 3 months before the date. There was not one hiccup on the wedding day. She is also so much fun to work with and is always looking out for her clients. She treated my daughter and son-in-law as if they were her own children. Do yourself a favor and hire Debra. You won't regret it.

Look no further for wedding planning services!

I hired Debra Thompson in March of 2023 for wedding planning and consultation services in preparation for my May 3, 2024 wedding. My now-husband and I were living overseas when we got engaged and for the first half of our engagement. I am pretty organized and was committed to doing some of the planning myself, but needed someone to keep me on track so that I knew what I needed to focus on next, and provide a list of recommended vendors since I am not originally from the Westchester area. Debra did all of that and so much more, remaining extremely professional at all times. She gave me lists of tasks to work on throughout each step of the planning process, and was always respectfully candid when I asked for feedback on decisions I was trying to make, whether it was which particular vendor I should hire, invitation wording, logistics (and I had SO MANY logistical questions!) or whatever else. Debra could always tell when I was getting overwhelmed and knew when she needed to step in a bit more. Whenever I reached out, she always got back to me in a matter of days—sometimes even quicker—despite all the other events she was helping to plan. If she hadn’t heard from me in a while, she’d send me an email to check in which reminded me to get moving. I knew from the first time I spoke to Debra that I needed to work with her to help plan my wedding and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. She truly knows her stuff. All of our vendors were from her recommended list of vendors, all of which were top of line. Our wedding went off without a hitch—we were told by so many of our guests that ours was one of the best weddings they had ever gone to, and they meant it. I know that all of Debra’s guidance played a large part in that. Her feedback was invaluable. So if you are looking for a wedding planner, whether it’s full wedding planning, or more of a consultant role like I chose, look no further—Debra is your girl!
