I can’t say enough good things about Ayden! I hired her later in the planning process, and my only regret is not hiring her sooner. She truly kept me sane on my wedding day. From quickly bustling my dress so I could get back to the party, to even helping my dad fix the hem of his pants—she went above and beyond in every way. My venue went through three different coordinators in the span of a year (something I never thought would happen, especially at such a nice hotel in Maine). The communication was a nightmare, and I honestly don’t know what I would have done without Ayden. She was relentless in trying to get in contact with someone when I simply didn’t have the time—I work a full-time, demanding job—and I didn’t even hear from the venue until about three weeks before my wedding. We still had timeline issues that needed immediate attention, and Ayden took charge. She finally got me in touch with the general manager, and things smoothed out from there. By the time the wedding arrived, I was so burnt out that I gave Ayden very little direction on how to set up some of my decorative pieces—and she absolutely nailed it. Everything looked wonderful and exactly how I had envisioned it (if not better). She kept me on schedule, executed every detail perfectly, and made the day feel effortless. I know wedding planning is expensive, but the stress and anxiety are just not worth the hassle. Having Ayden there was truly priceless. She is calm, collected, and incredibly detail-oriented—exactly the person you want by your side on your wedding day. If you’re on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator, let this be your sign—Ayden is absolutely incredible!

I cannot say enough good things about Nichole and Julia.

Every single detail was thoughtful, intentional, and so me. They ran everything by me, truly listened to my style and taste, and somehow brought my vision to life even better than I imagined. My wedding day was seamless, beautiful, and completely stress free, and that is entirely because of them. My day could not have been more perfect, and I have Nichole and Julia to thank for that.

Awarded Best of Zola
Initially I intended to plan all of my wedding on my own - and in many ways I did. We were married at the Customs House in Portland, a venue that is a blankslate venue. As I neared the day however, I began to worry that there were aspects of the planning that I overlooked. I hired The Cosmos at their Month-of package level taking all of that worry out of the process. They took care of all of the things I did miss - called out that there was no plan for trash receptacles, revised the number of glasses rented, added bathroom attendants, adjusted the number of staff etc, but an unexpected element (and maybe the most important) is that they helped me to manage difficult family members. They figured out that this is where a lot of my stress was coming from. I was so grateful to their team for minimizing overall stress. I highly recommend!

Joelene’s passion for wedding planning comes from her love of helping couples create a day they can truly be present for. She believes weddings should feel like a gathering of your favorite people, not a day spent putting out fires or worrying about logistics. With a balance of creativity, calm problem-solving, and heart, she is dedicated to making sure each couple feels understood and can fully enjoy the magic of their wedding weekend.

Working with Jo and For Every Joccasion was the best decision my husband and I could make for our wedding day! My husband and I are very simple people who are usually "go with the flow", so planning and executing a wedding was not an easy task. We reached out to For Every Joccasion and Joelene was quick to respond. We worked together over many months to plan our perfect wedding down to every last detail. We collaborated on a theme, colors, special events for the reception, etc. Joelene even offered to do most of the "heavy lifting" for us! She talked with vendors to find the best match for our ideal plan. When our wedding day actually rolled around, Jo made the day fly by with ease. As a bride, I never had to worry if projects would be done in time, tables and chairs would be placed correctly, and if my party would arrive on time. I got to focus all my attention on having what was meant to be one of the most magical days of my life be exactly that! The whole process was so smooth and we can't thank Joelene and her company, For Every Joccasion, enough. She really made our special day the most amazing day of our lives, by far. I would HIGHLY recommend For Every Joccasion for any of your event planning needs. Her kindness, quick thinking, and unique touches made our wedding all that more special!

My husband and I hired Madison as our day of coordinator. We did not hire a florist and ended up doing a lot of DIY projects for our wedding decor. We really wanted a professional to help us with setup and take-down of decor on the wedding day, so as not to burden our family/friends and take them away from the event to help. Madison was so friendly in the months leading up to the wedding and offered us lots of helpful advice on things we didn't even think to prepare for, like arranging seating charts and timing of processional songs. Our original venue coordinator ended up having to move away just a couple weeks before our wedding day, and Madison took the lead in syncing with the new venue coordinator on all the things we'd talked about. This really helped us out and took a load off our plate in those last few weeks before the wedding! The day of, she came early to the venue and, like a fairy godmother, had incorporated all of our decorations beautifully before we even arrived, so we were able to take lots of photos beforehand! Throughout the event, she cleverly found ways to repurpose some of our decor items to give them a second life, like setting reception flower arrangements along the room's bookshelves to dress them up for the ceremony, making a beautiful display with our ceremony roses and boutonnieres on our memory table, and using me and my bridesmaids' bouquets to create a beautiful sweetheart table arrangement! We were so incredibly thrilled with how well Madison and her team were able to follow our vision and exceed our expectations. A final sweet memory I have from near the end of the night - my hair was getting very tangled with my dress buttons on my back from dancing, and I was overheating and sweaty. Madison and her team arranged my hair into a beautiful low bun style so I could go back and have fun dancing again without worrying about it tangling further or looking bad. :) I'm so thankful we hired Madison as our day of coordinator, and we can't recommend her enough!!

All couples need Dana and her team with Thyme & Details for their big day. We hired Dana as a day of coordinator but she is so much more than that. She went to countless vendor meeting and kept track of all of my overly detailed instructions to make sure each piece of our day (timeline, vendor contracts, etc) worked with those details. When the venue dropped the ball, others got details wrong, or vendors fell through, Dana was always a step ahead and came up with even better solutions than our original plans. Dana really knows the ins and outs of organizing a wedding, is in tune with the Columbus wedding scene, and has incredibly valuable connections. Overall we were blown away by Dana and her team’s professionalism and dedication to our wedding. Dana’s communications were always prompt, detailed, and thorough every step of the way, making the planning process a breeze. She lead our rehearsal too which is exactly what we needed. Her team also went above and beyond the day-of to ensure every aspect of our special day was executed flawlessly.

Booking Cassie to be my wedding coordinator three months out to my wedding day was the best decision I made in the wedding planning process! I really thought I did not want or need a planner/coordinator, but having Cassie there really allowed me to enjoy my wedding. Cassie was diligent, organized, responsive, and patient. Cassie was so on top of every detail and knew all my vendors’ contracts inside and out! I had done lots of research online to make sure I knew every detail going into the wedding planning process, but there were some things I would not have known and Cassie was able to guide me through. For example, one of my vendors insisted an additional hour of rental time needed to be added to the wedding day (that would have cost me hundreds of dollars) and Cassie advocated for me, citing their contract, that it was not necessary. Cassie was also available to help make decisions regarding decor, helping me decide on pieces that best suited and enhanced the venue. I explained my vision of romantic candles everywhere throughout the event. Cassie and I worked together to shape where everything would go to create the seamless look. Cassie (and her assistant Cammie) made everything look stunning on the wedding day - and expertly packed up everything at the end of the night for us. I thought I could have my sister or family friend be in charge of so many of these tasks, but it was *so nice* delegating this out to a professional so that everyone could enjoy the day. Thank you Cassie for an amazing wedding day! Photo credit of venue photos: Created Coastal Photography

Annie from Before You Say I Do was an exceptional day-of-coordinator for our special day. Her communication style was frequent, clear, thoughtful, timely, and she was quick to respond to all of our questions and needs. The quality of her work and the value she provided was excellent-- she is hard-working and was incredibly considerate throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond, offering to bring additional decorations and even showing up the day before to assist with our traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony, which was not even on the same day as our official wedding. We had only hired her for her day-of coordination package, but even so, she was a consistent voice and helping hand for us for months leading up to the wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not have asked for a smoother wedding day. When we first decided to have our ceremony and reception at two separate locations, and eventually realized we would be working with around ten different vendors, I didn’t fully understand how essential an experienced day-of coordinator would be until late in the planning process. Looking back, I’m so grateful I had the foresight to book with MB Events. I worked with Caroline, and she was truly my rock on our wedding day. She communicated clearly and consistently and brought such a calm, genuine presence that immediately put me at ease. We had a few last-minute changes with some guests who were unable to attend while another one was added at the last minute. Caroline handled everything by coordinated directly with the venue to remove chairs and add name cards without needing any prompting from me. I was extremely stressed leading up to the wedding, but in hindsight, I really didn’t need to be. Caroline had everything completely under control! We met four times before the wedding: an initial Zoom meeting, another Zoom call about three months out to review the timeline and vendors, a venue walkthrough, and the rehearsal. She was incredibly detail-oriented and always thoughtful in her approach. It was so helpful to have a professional to bounce ideas off of, and she often raised considerations I hadn’t even thought of. I truly felt like she was my safety net throughout the process. Caroline planned everything down to the minute while remaining flexible and when changes came up. I never once felt rushed, and I appreciated how down-to-earth and approachable she was. Our wedding day came together so well, and I genuinely believe MB Events was the cornerstone that made it all happen.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I began searching for a wedding venue, we visited several locations—but ultimately, we chose our venue because of Danielle. From our very first meeting, we knew we would be in great hands with her. It was, without a doubt, the best decision we made during the entire planning process. Danielle made everything feel effortless. We were working with a strict budget, and she helped us maximize every dollar without compromising on our vision. Her communication was clear, and consistent, removing of the stress and uncertainty that often comes with planning a wedding. Midway through our planning, Danielle received an exciting opportunity at a new venue. While I was thrilled for her, I couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous about what that might mean for us. But Danielle’s dedication is truly unmatched—despite having started a new role, she returned to oversee our wedding day and stayed through the entire evening. We were beyond grateful for her loyalty and support. One of my favorite memories from the day (besides marrying my husband, of course!) was when Danielle pulled us aside before the reception to see the reception space fully set up. The countless boxes of candles and decor I had dropped off the night before had been transformed into something so magical. The room took my breath away—I was instantly in tears. All those months of planning and dreaming had come to life more beautifully than I ever imagined. Thanks to Danielle, I had the perfect wedding day. She is fun, knowledgeable, flexible, incredibly talented, and wholeheartedly committed to her couples. We feel so lucky to have found her.

As wedding caterers we have been blessed to work with Charity several times and we absolutely LOVE her. She is such a talented planner - she thinks of everything, always has a backup plan, is so dialed in and she makes the day run smoothly. We love to work with vendors who have a team mentality and that's Charity through and through. She creates stunning designs for her clients and is looking out for them through the entire process. No matter what curveball seems to be thrown at Charity she always makes the day a dream come true.

We LOVED working with Brittany. We had monthly meetings with her for over a year, from the venue search phase to the handoff to our month-of coordinator, and she was so helpful. She helped us with the searches for everything—venue, DJ, photography, day-of coordination, flowers, catering—and provided us timelines and organization tools that were genuinely invaluable. We had very little idea going in exactly what was needed to plan a wedding, but Brittany’s collaboration made us feel very on top of things. She also worked with us to troubleshoot things when issues arose (like our flower provider not following some of our communication requests). And an added bonus is that she’s fun to hang out with lol—we really enjoyed our monthly meetings!! Would absolutely recommend the Venlist (and Brittany specifically)!

We are passionate about helping couples feel calm, confident, and supported on their wedding day. We know how much time and love goes into planning, and we are here to make sure all that effort pays off. Whether it is handling vendor questions, keeping everything on schedule, or solving issues before they reach you, we take care of the details so you can focus on what really matters as you celebrate with the people who mean the most to you.

We hired Meg super last minute when we realized we were in over our heads trying to manage everything on our own. From the moment she stepped in, it was like she had been with us the whole time. She instantly understood our vision, took charge of all the moving parts, and brought a calm, reassuring presence that kept everyone grounded. Guests had no idea she was a late addition because everything ran so smoothly. Meg handled vendor coordination, kept the timeline flowing, fixed a few behind-the-scenes hiccups, and made sure we were always where we needed to be without stress. Our only regret is not hiring her sooner.

Working with Lauren Bek has been nothing short of outstanding. She’s the kind of party planner who makes everything feel effortless—even though you know how much time, thought, and detail she’s putting in behind the scenes. Her level of organization is second to none, and she always seems two steps ahead, anticipating needs before they even come up. On top of her professionalism, she brings a genuine warmth and friendliness that puts everyone at ease. She doesn’t just “plan events”—she cares deeply about making each one a success, and it shows in the way she treats her clients, vendors, and guests alike. That combination of skill, heart, and reliability is rare, and it makes her stand out in the industry. If you’re looking for someone who will handle your event with precision while also making the entire process enjoyable, Lauren is exactly who you want on your team.

Hey there! My name is Victoria and what I love the most is helping people plan their special events and taking on the heavy organizational burden, so they can focus on enjoying their day. Whether it's a wedding, a birthday, or a holiday party, I'm passionate about creating an experience that is tailored to each client's unique needs and preferences. In my free time, I love practicing yoga, reading books, rewatching Harry Potter, and snuggling my Corgi (if he lets me). Let's work together to create an unforgettable experience that will leave you and your guests with lasting memories!

Victoria exceeded every possible expectation we had of her as a day-of-coordinator. She filled in gaps we hadn't thought of, without blinking twice. Every single minute of our wedding flowed seamlessly - because of Victoria. From the moment we first spoke over the phone, she radiated calm, confidence, and care. On the day itself, she was everywhere at once, anticipating every detail, asking all of the right questions at the right times, and working at the height of professionalism with all of our other vendors (though she met most of them on the day of!). Before the procession, I was feeling very nervous, and Victoria's kind words & center of gravity calmed me down. For the reception, we had table settings to set up - from flowers to runners to signage; Victoria took care of all of it. My husband and I and our families were and are in awe of her. Hiring Victoria was the best decision we made for our wedding. She’s a total pro and we’ll be grateful to her forever!

Our wedding coordinators were absolutely AMAZING! From the very beginning, Taylor and her husband went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. They worked so seamlessly together — calm, organized, and always one step ahead. The entire day ran smoothly thanks to them, and we were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment knowing everything was in great hands. They took care of every little thing, big and small, with so much care and professionalism. We truly could not have asked for a better team. If you’re planning a wedding, you need these two in your corner!
