Samantha Sent on 12/24/2024We love Samara!
I can't say enough about Samara! I wanted nothing to do with wedding planning and was honestly overwhelmed by the idea of it, but thanks to Samara I not only got through the planning, but enjoyed the day and the planning was manageable because she is so good about keeping you on schedule and helping with decision making during the process. There were countless times I asked her about when a payment was due, or about a specific detail of a vendor contract and she would have an answer for me in minutes because she is just so organized. I had a very broad idea of what I may want the wedding to be like, but I could not... -

Brittney Sent on 12/16/2024Couldn't have done it without Samara!!
We worked with Samara for almost two years leading up to our wedding. From day one she was extremely organized, communicative, and professional. Samara helped to bring our vision to life PERFECTLY. Our venue was a "blank slate" venue that needed every little detail imaginable. Samara and her team coordinated with all of our vendors and made it the dreamiest wedding ever. I can truly say that I was able to enjoy my wedding day stress free because I completely trusted Samara and her team. I would recommend Samara to anyone and will forever be thankful for everything she did to ensure we had the best day ever! -

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Samara and her team! From the very beginning, Samara was professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our dream wedding come to life. Every detail was meticulously planned, and her creative vision brought a level of elegance and beauty we couldn’t have imagined.
Samara truly went above and beyond, handling every challenge with grace and ensuring the entire process was stress-free for us. She even sewed (yes, sewed) a small piece of my dress on the day of because it was coming undone. Truly unbelievable. Her ability to combine our personal style with her expertise in design and execution was incredible, and the result was nothing short of magical.

Working with Samara was the highlight of our wedding planning journey! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in good hands. Samara is not only a true professional but also an absolute delight to work with. She really took all the stress out of the process!
Samara is incredibly organized and responsive. She helped us shape our vision and then brought it to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. My partner and I were initially clueless about where to start and didn't have a clear vision beyond wanting a warm and inviting atmosphere for our guests. Samara completely understood our vibe and worked closely with us to create the wedding of our dreams.

Samara made wedding planning a breeze and working with her was the best decision we could have made. From the moment we met her, we knew we would be in good hands. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine passion for bringing our vision to life were evident in every step of the process.
Our wedding was a backyard event where everything from bathrooms to tents to electricity had to be brought in, and Samara handled every detail with grace, ensuring that everything ran smoothly from start to finish. She took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life in ways we couldn’t have imagined.
What truly sets Samara apart is how easy and... -

Mackenzie Sent on 07/25/2024The Best Wedding Planner
Samara is an absolute DREAM. She’s everything you could possibly want in a wedding planner and more. There’s really no need to look any further—Samara is your person.
First, she’s very responsive and extremely detail oriented, but she doesn’t make it overwhelming. She’s someone you can trust fully with your wedding day doing all of the things you didn’t know you needed or wanted and making them even better than imagined. She responds to emails swiftly and is sure to think of everything. There were times when my partner and I had a particular vision / desire and she made it happen seamlessly. There were also times when my partner and I just didn’t want to make another... -

Jamie Sent on 07/11/2024So so glad we hired Samara for our wedding!
We hired Samara as our day-of-coordinator, and I honestly don't know what our wedding would have been like without her help. As if planning a wedding isn't stressful enough, my husband and I were one of the unfortunate couples who had to push their wedding back a year due to COVID. Samara is an absolute delight to work with, and she definitely helped us stay sane towards the end of the planning (and then re-planning) process. Every meeting we had was productive, and she really took the time to make sure she knew what our vision for our wedding was.
She stayed in touch with all of our vendors right up to the day and made sure everybody... -

The Best Thing You Could Do
Where could I even begin with Samara and Just as Planned? First of all, if you are on the fence or toying with the idea needing planner, you do and you need Samara. Even stellar venues, attentive and involved on-site day of coordinators, dedicated friends, and knowledgeable family cant compare. No matter how hard and long you prepare to even the smallest detail, having Samara will not only give you the priceless piece of mind but she is also insurance for one of the biggest and best days of your life. You spend so much of your time, energy, and money for this one day, why wouldn’t you want to solidify that everything goes according to your vision and... -

Ariel Sent on 10/27/2023Samara is the absolute BEST!!
Samara is THE BEST!!! We can’t say enough good things about her. She is exactly the type of person you want by your side when planning a wedding. She truly listened to us, she’s the calm in the storm and incredibly organized. She goes above and beyond with anything you task her with. She kept us on track with our to-do list, she connected us with amazing vendors, worked closely with our venue, and handled last-minute surprises with confidence. Having her there throughout the process allowed us to really enjoy all the special moments with no stress. Not many people can say they truly became friends with their wedding planner. We’re genuinely sad to not have our regular check ins. We cannot recommend her enough!! Book Samara ASAP! -

Sophie Sent on 09/16/2023The best planner ever!
Samara was truly the best planner we could have asked for. She thought of everything and was always available to discuss details or ease our minds about bumps in the planning process. On the day of, she helped everyone stay on task, she organized our wedding party, and coordinated with our vendor team. She did all of this while staying incredibly calm and professional, which was a huge plus. Overall, I would recommend Samara to everyone because she is a wonderful planner and is great to work with. -

Cara Sent on 08/01/2023She is the best!!
Samara is amazing. We initially weren't planning on hiring a coordinator, but our venue required it and boy did she deliver! She kept us on track with planning, and took things off our plate when things got crazy. She handled all those little annoying details that you just don't want to deal with. She was always so enthusiastic, kind and responsive. Then on the day of the wedding she was like an invisible magician, everywhere and nowhere all at once, making sure the entire day ran smoothly, directing people in the sweetest way, keeping us on our timeline, all the things. Our family raved about how helpful she was. I highly recommend her and will send any friends and family getting married her way in the future. She was a joy to work with. -

Carly Sent on 06/26/2022Absolutely amazing planner and coordinator!
Samara flawlessly made our vision come to life and we could not have done it without her! She was responsive, patient, had great ideas and kept us on track over the course of our planning year. Our venue was not traditional and required a significant amount of coordination. We had 13+ vendors and Samara perfectly handled everything without missing a beat. We would highly recommend her to be part of your wedding planning and weekend!! -

Erin Sent on 05/31/2022Thank god for Samara!! That is all I can say!!
Thank god for Samara!! That is all I can say!! Samara worked with me, my mother, and my now husband to make our wedding day the best day ever. I honestly do not know what I would have done without her, she is so detail orientated, has amazing connections with other industry vendors, and was a person to who I was able to vent throughout the stressful wedding planning process. I am so sad our wedding is over because that means no more monthly/weekly chats. I highly recommend Samara Josephine Events to any couple planning their dream wedding! Thanks a million, times over Samara! XOXO - The LaMarche's -

Matthew Sent on 12/30/2021Samara Is Amazing!
Our venue required us to hire a wedding consultant, and we are thrilled they did and even more thrilled to have found Samara. She was a star from start to finish. She provided such amazing advice; she found fabulous vendors in the area; and she helped to create the most remarkable wedding day that exceeded our vision and our every expectation. Samara is a dream! She felt like a true friend and partner through the whole wedding planning process. -

I had a rustic glam DIY vibe in mind; simple, but intimate, elegant, and personal. Samara made executing our vision fun and stress-free. She was the perfect partner for us, keeping us on track and laughing throughout the process. I can’t imagine working with anyone else, and I don’t want to imagine our special day with out her expertise! -

Incredible planner
Samara made the entire planning process organized, less stressful, and helped us stick to our budget. We had monthly check ins via zoom/FaceTime and she kept us on track. On our big day, my husband and I felt stress free and everything went seamlessly. Samara handled coordinating deliveries/vendor arrival times, and set up/ break down. It was so nice to be able to enjoy ourselves the night and day after the wedding and not worry about breaking everything down. Many of our vendors commented on how organized Samara was. I can’t recommend her enough and truly don’t think I would have had such an amazing day without her.

Jennifer Sent on 09/22/2021Don't know what we would have done without her!
Samara was AMAZING!!! She truly went above and beyond our expectations and for that we are eternally grateful. She is a logistics master and we SO appreciate how expertly she coordinated with all of our vendors (especially the ones who were ghosting us!). The regular check-ins were so great for our planning and piece of mind and helped us go into the wedding day with confidence and way less stress. Her setup of the venue and calm presence during the wedding saved our lives! Samara met us at the venue the day before the wedding and spent all day (and probably most of the night!) setting up all of our rentals- and we rented EVERYTHING. The barn looked absolutely... -

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience
Such an incredible experience. Samara made our wedding completely stress free. Everything was executed perfectly. She listened to my concerns and made me feel cared for throughout the entire process. She was there from beginning to end and then after! Her professionalism, ability to coordinate chaos and artistic vision made everything go so smoothly. If there’s anyone you want by your side for ANYTHING; she is the MVP. -

We are so lucky to have found Samara! She went above and beyond to help make our vision a reality. It was clear that this isn't just her job, it is her passion.
Her guidance while planning was incredibly helpful, her coordination with our vendors was stellar, and her day of execution was flawless.
Most importantly of all, she did it all with a smile while letting us relax and enjoy our wedding knowing that everything was in such capable hands! -
