Elpida Events is a solid choice if you’re looking for a planner who’s all about collaboration and bringing your unique vision to life. We especially love that they’re flexible—each package can be customized to fit what you’re looking for.

They offer three different packages, so whether you’re in for the full shebang with their Classy Complete, planning a dreamy destination wedding with Elegance Abroad, or need someone to handle the last-minute details with their Day Of Facilitation, they’ve got you covered.

Also, booking a 30-minute consultation was a breeze, and they’re quick to follow up with a detailed plan and cost breakdown, usually within two days. 

From our surveys, the team is known for their thorough prep work and excellent communication. Clients appreciate how the team is always on top of things, answering questions and ensuring every little detail is addressed.

Just note that Elpida is by appointment only, so if you’re hoping for a drop-in chat, you’ll need to plan. But if you’re looking for a seamless and stress-free planning experience, Elpida Events is a top contender.

Really listens to client’s needs

“If I had to do it again I would take the same company! Elpida Évents really listens to the needs of its customers with a large or small budget, we are satisfied and ensures that all the details you want to have or see for your events are present. Once again thank you to the CEO and the whole team !”

Made the wedding magical and stress-free

“I truly cannot recommend Esther and the Elpida Events team highly enough! They went above and beyond to help make our wedding day magical and 100% stress-free. Esther’s dedication to having meetings and checking up on us throughout the planning process was such a huge help, despite us only hiring her for day-of facilitation. Esther’s kind energy and professionalism really helped keep everything flowing perfectly at our wedding and she was an absolute delight to work with. If you are looking for a wedding coordinator who is passionate about both her work and her clients, Esther and the Elpida Events team is for you!”

If connections are what you’re after, Erica Irwin Weddings and Events might just be your dream team. We found that they’ve got a seriously impressive network of top-notch vendors, from florists to photographers, so you know your wedding is in good hands. 

We’re big fans of how hands-on her team is when it comes to sticking to timelines. They’re all about making sure you’re having fun while they handle the nitty-gritty details. 

The couples we chatted with rave about how stress-free the process feels, which is huge when you’re planning such a big event. One client even shared a story about how Erica expertly resolved a venue double-booking issue, showcasing her value as a planner.

The catch? They’re closed on weekends, so you’ll need to plan around that, and their packages can be on the pricier side, starting at $6,500. If you’re ready to invest in a smooth and stunning wedding, though, Erica Irwin is worth every penny.

Client-oriented, superb support 

“Erica is incredibly client oriented and provides superb support. She has answered so many of my harassing wedding questions, in such a quick turn around time. She is genuinely a sweet and caring person, so she treats you all the time with respect and kindness. She dedicates her time to making a bride feel at ease. She is so helpful and supportive. She has all the connection and the transition is so smooth with her”

Kept everything running smoothly

“Hired Erica for our wedding celebration. Easily one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. We chose the Fairmont Montebello. Erica was able to liaise with the staff there expertly. She gave us a bunch of ideas we ultimately used for our event (like bride vs groom curling tournament), kept everything running smoothly, and was just a generally a great human. Cant recommend highly enough. Some of the best money we’ve ever spent.”

Courtney Elizabeth Events specializes in handling both local and international weddings, so if you’re dreaming of a destination wedding, they’re totally game to travel with you. And their concierge-style service means you get a high-end, personalized touch that’ll make your wedding feel truly special.

We also love their 24/7 availability. Seriously, clients love that they’re always just a phone call or text away, ready to calm any pre-wedding jitters or last-minute worries. 

Another aspect we appreciate is that their attention to detail is next level, ensuring everything looks picture-perfect and runs like clockwork.

But we’re a bit bummed that they only take on a limited number of clients each year, so you’ll want to book early if you’re interested. The upside is that they can focus on delivering a standout event. 

And while their prices are pricey, the level of service and luxury they provide makes them a top contender.

Went above and beyond

“Courtney went above and beyond to make our special day everything we’ve ever wanted and more.

Throughout the whole wedding planning process she was excellent at communicating with us, addressing any questions or concern and taking the stress off our shoulders! Best in the business and we are so grateful to have had courtney working with us on our destination wedding.”

Amazing experience 

“Working with Court was such an amazing experience! We had an issue with our first venue and had to completely re-plan, including finding a new venue, 3 weeks out from our wedding! We could not have done it without Courtney! She made the whole process feel so easy, and alleviated so much stress from my husband and I! Can’t recommend working with her enough :)!”

A highlight for Kennedy Event Planning is that their Petite Wedding package is a great option if you’re looking to keep things cozy and small. 

We also learned that they’ve been featured in all the top wedding magazines and even on TV, so you know they’ve got a solid track record.

It’s also neat how flexible and attentive the team is. They’re known for swooping in and handling any hiccups that might pop up on your big day, like managing last-minute vendor issues without even breaking a sweat.

After hearing some couples, they mention how smooth the whole planning process feels, with Kennedy’s team guiding them through everything from vendor contracts to final details.

That said, they’re closed on weekends, which could be a bit of a hassle if you’re trying to schedule meetings around a busy workweek. Also, their packages are a bit pricier than some, starting at $6,000. 

Still, we can’t deny that Kennedy Event Planning is reliable and detail-oriented.

Amazing person to work with

“6/5 stars if possible! We can’t thank Shannon enough for her help in planning our wedding and making sure everything went off without an issue. She is such an amazing person and we were so lucky to work with her through this process. If you are planning an event, Shannon and her team are the people to go to!”

Austin Donlevy, Google Review

Absolutely seamless 

“It was a pleasure working with Kennedy Event Planning to plan for our big day. Shannon’s expertise and experience especially shone on our wedding day by making sure everything was organized to be absolutely seamless. The day went off without a hitch and we’re glad to have worked so closely with Shannon to make it happen!”

Sinclair & Co. Design offers a unique twist by combining wedding planning with custom floral design. If you’re all about aesthetics and don’t want the hassle of dealing with multiple vendors, this could be a game-changer. 

Their use of local, quality florals means your wedding will look gorgeous while also supporting local growers. On top of that, their packages are super flexible, letting you customize exactly what suits your needs. 

We were especially impressed by their Final Management and Coordination service, which starts at a reasonable $3,000—ideal if you’ve got most of the planning covered but need someone to handle the final details.

However, they’re closed on Sundays, so you’ll need to work around that if weekends are your main planning time. 

While their full-service packages start around $9,000, which is a bit on the higher side, their expertise in both planning and florals makes it a solid investment if you’re looking for a beautifully cohesive wedding design.

Incredible job 

“I would highly recommend hiring Lauren if you need a floral designer. She did such an incredible job, I could not be happier. She truly created the fairytale wedding I was dreaming of. She was so kind, patient and I was always able to easily get in touch with her for any questions I had. In moments where I was unsure of what decor to choose from, she was able to help guide me or even help me choose. I was never disappointed. I’m so grateful for all her hard work.”

Maria Protopoulos, Google Review

Did not disappoint 

“Lauren is amazing! I always knew I wanted her to do my planning/decor and florals and she did not disappoint. Our day was perfect and I couldn’t be more appreciative and thankful for her and her team <3”
