    Beyond all hopes and dreams

    Our daughter's wedding was PERFECTION. Rachel guided us from start to finish, and she was kind, thoughtful, patient, professional, compassionate, and always listening every single step of the way. To write about our experience in positive superlatives would not do it justice. Rachel proved herself to be invaluable as we worked together up until the start of the ceremony, and then . . . just like all of our guests . . . we were able to completely immerse ourselves in the fun and enjoy every little detail and moment of the reception. Eternal gratitude to Rachel and her all-star team!

    Caroline,

    I am so pleased you enjoyed your night and had a marvelous time. The event could not have been more beauitful. It was an honor to work with you and your family. Thank you so much for your review.

    Best Wishes,
    Rachel Koger

    You NEED Cose Bella in your wedding planning life

    Cose Bella was HANDS DOWN the best decision we made for our wedding. As someone who is very type A and very much a do it yourself type of person, it took me many months into wedding planning to realize I would need some help and look for a day of coordinator. Finding Rachel and her team was honestly the BEST THING that happened to me. Although Rachel was technically our Day of Coordinator, she met with us monthly from the time we signed our contract, about 5 months before our wedding, and then more frequently as the day got closer. She helped keep us on track and assigned us monthly to-dos. She thought of many things that I know I would not have. She designed BEAUTIFUL signature cocktail signs that I am truly obsessed with and had our menus printed as it was cheaper to do in her area than ours. She is so thoughtful, kind, positive, honest, and fun to work with. The day of our wedding, Rachel and her team were with us the ENTIRE DAY. They organized all of our belongings, steamed all of our dresses and the guys' tuxes, ran around literally all day, helped set up all of our candles, built our candelabras, put together our table settings, and helped flip the reception room in 30 minutes. And so much more. All while keeping the rest of us on time. Even at the end of the night, Rachel was there packaging cake and desserts into to go boxes for our guests, bringing our valuables into our suite, and cleaning up all of our decor from the venue. We have since gotten so many compliments on how beautiful and well organized our wedding was, and honestly it is all thanks to Cose Bella. I am sad I don't get to work with Rachel anymore, and will be looking for any excuse to do so. We already know they are the first vendors we are calling when my younger sister gets engaged. If you are looking for a wedding planner, hire Cose Bella immediately!!!!!! You won't regret it

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Wow Helen,

    This is the most amazing review we could have received. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and you taking the time to write this amazing review. I am so pleased we could be of such assistance, and it was truly an honor to be a part of your special day. I miss working with you both, but hope to see you again soon!!! Best wishes and congratulations again. My heart is so full thank you so much.

    Best,
    Rachel Koger

    Absolutely incredible

    I don’t even know where to begin. I hired Rachel about a year out from my wedding. I was looking for a day of coordinator and to say she exceeded those expectations would be the understatement of the century. We had monthly check ins leading up to the wedding, with even more calls as the day got closer, to ensure everything was on track. Hands down the best decision my fiancé and I made in the wedding planning process. I am a type-A perfectionist, who is not easy to please,
    and Rachel eased all of my worries. Without the help of her and her amazing team, I’m not sure how I would have survived the planning process let alone, made sure everything was perfect on our wedding day. Rachel and her team ensured everything ran on time, contacted all vendors leading up to wedding, ran our rehearsal , set up all tables, flowers, candles, bars, gift tables, cigar bar, the list goes on and on. She truly was our wedding fairy godmother and a million thank you’s would never suffice in expressing my gratitude towards her and her incredible team. Brides - please give yourself the gift of peace of mind on your big day and book Cose Bella. Thank you Rachel & Cose Bella - we love you!

    Best planner ever

    I had a destination wedding in Portugal and Rachel is the definition of hitting the ground running. She sent us several potential venues, did research on what areas they were in. We did a welcome boat tour the day before the wedding and Rachel helped guests find the correct dock, she even drove to pick people up. The day of the actual wedding i was stress free having breakfast/brunch while she was running around putting out last minute fires. The venue threw us a lot of last minute curveballs ( they over promised and under delivered) and Rachel did not hesitate to hold their feet to the fire. She is definitely more than just your average wedding planner, she will be your biggest advocate to make sure your day that you spend so much time and money on, is one that you will never forget.

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you so much Saphiana for your amazingly kind words. Your Wedding Day was Breathtaking and I am so honored I was able to be a part of it. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Portugal and wish you the best !!! Congratulations again !!!

    Best,

    Amazing Experience

    We are so thankful we hired Cose Bella. Rachel and her team are so warm, welcoming, and fun! Their attention to detail was outstanding and our wedding day truly
    would have been a disaster without them!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you so much Kelcy for your review and kind words. It was an absolute pleasure helping the both of you through your planning process. On behalf of Elizabeth and myself we wish you happiness on your new life together. Congratulations!!

    Hire Cose Bella!!!

    We cannot say enough good things about Rachel & the Cose Bella team! She truly went above & beyond for us. We got married at OceanCliff in Newport, RI on 7/8/23 and a few months prior to our wedding day, it dawned on us that we might need a day-of coordinator. We got SO lucky that Rachel was still available on our date. She is worth every penny. She is so personable, kind, helpful, and resourceful. I assumed as a day-of coordinator we'd have a few phone calls and hope for the best but Rachel went above and beyond in the planning process and day-of execution. She attended all of our vendor meetings and even created all of our wedding illustrations from our place cards, menus, drink signage, and guest book item! My bridal party and I kept saying we felt like she was a fairy godmother. Anything we needed she had, she was somehow everywhere at once - it was incredible. She even helped fix my stepmom's shoe moments before the ceremony! We cannot recommend Rachel and her team enough. If you want your wedding to be as seamless and drama-free as ours, you need to hire Rachel!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Melissa thank you so much for this special review. This means so much to us. We are so happy we made your day seamless. I will miss our check-ins and wish you nothing but the best!!! Congratulations again Mr. and Mrs. Carpenito.

    Best of the Best

    I could not have asked for a better wedding planning experience than the one I had with Rachel. As I was somewhat apprehensive to start the planning, Rachel made the process seamless and enjoyable. Not only was she organized, responsive, and communicative, but her joyful and positive personality made our meetings something to look forward to. She always came back to me with several options and ideas for my many questions. She also caught on quickly to the vision I dreamed of and made it a reality. I would recommend her for anyone looking to plan the perfect wedding!

    Cose Bella Events - Exceptional

    We couldn't have planned my daughter's wedding without Rachel Koger of Cose Bella events. She perfectly captured our vision for an elegant wedding and not only oversaw this event, but a series of events over an entire weekend. The most responsive, detail-oriented and creative person I have ever worked with and as a global communications executive who has planned dozens of events, both large and small, I sure could have used Rachel on my team.

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you so much Rachel. This review means so much- what a powerful compliment you have given us. I am truly grateful and honored to have worked with you and your family. Stay in touch! I will miss our check ins. Congratulations again on your daughter's wedding!!

    Best,

    Fabulous wedding planner and person

    I’m so thankful I got to work with Rachel, who helped plan every part of my wedding. Rachel is extremely professional and all of her work is very high quality and polished. Her level of professionalism made me feel secure about all of the million of decisions that needed to be made - I had complete faith that everything would get done and taken care of working with her. At the same time, Rachel is so personable and easy to work with. I never felt like she judged my decisions but instead she helped guide me to create the wedding I wanted. Her expertise on vendors in Rhode Island was invaluable. She is clearly passionate about weddings and working with all of her clients, and she is an overall very positive person and joy to be around. She is extremely detail oriented and organized. She was also incredibly responsive - she would respond to emails or texts very quickly and take care of any problems immediately. Clearly, I cannot stop thinking of great things to write about Rachel. After the wedding I had several friends and family members tell me how impressed they were with Rachel on the wedding day and how much they loved her (after only briefly meeting her). Thank you for everything Rachel, I will miss working with you but I look forward to watching your business thrive!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Wow Hannah,
    Reading this brought tears to my eyes! I am so grateful to have had you and Mathew as my clients, and truly wish you a Happily Ever After. Thank you for all of your kind words. It has been such a pleasure. Have an amazing time on your honeymoon, and I hope to see you soon!

    The most amazing planner!

    I had the pleasure of working with Rachel and Lou throughout my wedding planning process. Rachel is so kind, caring, and has and excellent attention to detail. I was so happy to have her because I would not have thought of many important things she brought to my attention! She also recommended excellect vendors. Even with some surpise hiccups, Rachel was able to calm my panic and easily solve anything that came her way. I cannot recommend Cose Bella enough for future brides!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you so much Crystal and Drew !!!! I hope you had an amazing time on your honeymoon. Thank you so much for your review.

    Best wishes,

    A pleasure to work with🙂

    Rachel was extremely professional and personable at the same time. During my initial vendor selection, I had tons of questions she really guided me though the process of understanding the fundamentals of putting together a successful wedding. Well worth the investment 🙂

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you Latoya! I truly appreciate the time of you reviewing us. So happy for you and best of luck on your endeavors!!! CONGRATULATIONS!

    The best decision we made!

    We can't say enough great things about Rachel. Our only regret was not finding her sooner in the process. She is so responsive, detail-oriented, organized, made fantastic recommendations for additional vendors and offered us so much support along the way with the details. She has gorgeous taste and really helped with bringing together the vision we were going for. She is by far the best vendor! I'm thinking someday we'll have a vow renewal just to work with her again!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Victoria, this is such an amazing compliment to us at Cose Bella. I am honored to be a part of your special day and even more honored to be receiving this unbelievable review. Thank you so much for your kind, heartfelt words. We would gladly be apart of any events you hold in the future!!

    Thank you again,

    Kind, Detail, Oriented Planner who Strives to do the Best!

    Rachel was the best coordinator we could have hoped for. We hired her for day of coordination and she went above and beyond. From meeting with us monthly to make sure all our details were covered to the actual day she was nothing but professional and kind in understanding our needs for our wedding day. My friends and family noticed how valuable Rachel was to making our wedding day incredible and I highly highly recommend Rachel to anyone getting married in the future.

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Wow thank you so much Emily. It was truly an honor to work with you and your family. Best wishes to you both!

    Great Photographer Recommendations!

    After our original photographer had to unexpectedly decline, and our wedding just a few months away, Cose Bella got right to work. Within just a couple days we received multiple recommendations of exceptionally qualified photographers that were all available on our date. After contacting them all and weighing our options we made a decision we are very happy with. Thanks Cose Bella for turning what started as a crisis into an enjoyable experience!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you Tyler for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!! Good luck on your upcoming day.

    We cannot say enough about how amazing Rachel was when it came to planning our day and on the big day itself. She was organized, professional, kind, and completely eliminated all of our stress. I would have paid thousands more than we paid for the service we received. I don’t know what I would have done without her. She is so personable and we will miss meeting with her. We love her so much!

    I worked a wedding this weekend with Rachel and her team, at the Five Bridge Inn, Rehoboth, Ma. Rachel was amazing. She was on top of every detail from start to finish. Rachel is very organized and so easy to work with. I highly recommend her to any bride that needs a little extra help planning and executing her special day. You won’t be disappointed. I hope we cross paths again in the future.

    Highly Recommend!

    Rachel made our wedding weekend happen! We started working with her fairly late in the planning process, but she jumped right in and got us on track to have a really special wedding weekend. From vendor recommendations, to day of logistics, to last minute changes, Rachel was flexible and accommodating to all our needs! Would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding.

    Rachel is everything you need on your wedding day!

    Working with Rachel as our Day or Coordinator was perfect. She was there for anything that Jimmy and I needed without being over bearing. She reached out to all the other vendors and made sure everything went smooth. Rachel was the perfect balance to my Type A Project Manager style and let me run what I needed to but also took the reins when I needed her to. Rachel really went above and beyond for us and I can’t recommend her enough!

    Cose Bella's reply:

    Thank you both so much for your kind words. it was an absolute pleasure to be apart of your special day. I wish you nothing but happiness and hope you enjoyed your honeymoon to Costa Rica. Best wishes and cheers to a happily ever after.

    1st Birthday Party Event

    Rachel went above and beyond with helping me plan my baby’s first birthday! She was able to help me setup a budget and advise me throughout the process of preparing everything for the event. I would totally recommend and use her services again!
