Our #1 tip to other couples getting married in NJ... hire Billie!
We got married in June 2024 in Princeton, NJ, near our families. During the wedding planning process, we were based in the UK, and moved halfway through to Switzerland, so we knew we would need someone experienced and calm "on the ground" to help everything run smoothly. Billie absolutely filled this role from day 1! Planning a wedding from another country is no small feat and with Billie's guidance it was the least stressful it could have been.
We were fairly confident about most of the wedding planning process, and signed up for Billie's 'wedding management' package. Truthfully, this was even more than we were planning to do when we first started looking at coordinators, but trust me, IT IS WORTH IT. You are not just investing in your peace of mind, you are also unlocking a treasure trove of wedding wisdom—and importantly in this industry, Billie will always try to help you figure out what YOU want, and how you can make that happen. There are no rules!
From our first meeting, Billie took the time to get to know us and our preferences, and although she had never coordinated a Quaker wedding before, she was curious and so thoughtful throughout the process. Having someone who could 'bridge' the very simple Quaker ceremony with our slightly more traditional reception ended up being crucial, since at a wedding sometimes (even in a democratic Quaker setup!) you need someone who's in charge! We even ended up doing an extra consultation with her about halfway through the process (~4 months out) to discuss the wedding-day timeline, which was incredibly helpful.
On the day, Billie (sometimes literally) held our hands throughout. She made sure vendors and guests knew where to go, helped with the signing of the Quaker wedding certificate, coordinated our transport bus, handled tips — everything you would expect from a day-of coordinator, but with an extra level of professionalism and conscientiousness. Billie had taken the time to get to know us as a couple, and unlike someone who comes in "on the day of," she was able to answer questions without needing to bother us on the most exciting day of our lives. We got more time to spend with our loved ones, which is always what you want!
We would recommend Billie and Best Day Ever without hesitation to anyone planning a wedding or other event in central NJ. (Just make sure you reach out in good time — we were really lucky that she had our date open, and that was nearly a year in advance!) Thank you, Billie, for helping to make our wedding day so spectacular and so relaxed!
The main reason our wedding went absolutely perfect is because Billie was there for us every step of the way. Right from the beginning of our planning process, Billie listened to all of our ideas and hopes for the day and provided us with a full mood board of design inspiration, a color palette, and recommendations. Being able to collaborate with her on all of our designs (florals, seating chart, welcome signs, menus, everything) was so helpful to make sure the end results were exactly what we wanted and personalized. She also recommended vendors to us that were extremely professional and wonderful to work with.
One of the best parts of our wedding day was seeing our balloon installation piece come to life. We were interested in having a ceiling installation for the reception, but the price was extremely high and out of our budget. Billie had the idea of looking into using balloons instead (shoutout to Ivy on Main florals/Ivy on Air!) and she worked with the vendor on creating a completely new design. The silver orb balloons were so stunning and even better than we could have imagined!! Without her creative mind and ability to think outside of the box, we would have never had that as part of our wedding day.
Billie’s experience and professionalism is so top tier and made our own wedding the perfect day. She truly does give you and your partner the best day ever when you have her involved. 1000/10 recommend her for any event!
Billie is the absolute best! She truly has an amazing talent in wedding planning. She was able to turn an unsure wedding day vision to the most beautiful, perfect day. Billie has an expertise in weddings, extremely organized, and very personable. She was able to recommend the most wonderful vendors. I had complete trust in Billie and she created the most dreamy day. I 1000% recommend Billie to anyone who needs guidance to plan the best day. I can guarantee you’ll have zero stress during the entire process.
Billie of Best Day Ever Wedding Planning is absolutely fantastic! She came highly recommended by a friend who used her for her daughter's wedding in 2022. There are several service packages to choose from and the Wedding Management package was just right for us. I knew we needed help coordinating the timing and transportation for the day of my daughter's wedding. Billie jumped in a month before the big day and took care of everything. When I saw all the emails going back and forth with our vendors I knew I couldn't have done it without her. She even provided a timeline for the wedding party to save on their phones to help keep everyone on track. What I love most about Billie is that right from the beginning she feels like a friend you've known for ages. Billie is professional and organized. She knows when to step in and when to stand back. Billie handled all the little hiccups on the wedding day so my daughter and I didn't have to. I can honestly say that my husband and I, as well as our daughter and son-in-law were able to fully enjoy the day knowing Billie was there to take care of everything. We are forever grateful to Billie for her part in helping to make 12.2.2023 our family's own best day ever!
Wedding planning is very overwhelming and we knew we needed someone to help keep us on track and to give us insight on things we were not familiar with. Billie was excellent from the start; from the first call she was friendly and personable, very easy to talk to and get to know. She had flexibility in her appointment calls and we always ended them feeling better than when we started. Billie pointed us in the right direction for our vendors based on her knowledge of the area and years of experience in the business, which is one of the biggest reasons we wanted a wedding planner. Every vendor that BIllie suggested we booked and would recommend. She handled communication with our vendors, volunteered to be our marriage license witness, and even went in person to our hotel when it was difficult to communicate with them. We trusted her with our timeline and she always took our opinions and wants into consideration while making decisions. She went above and beyond and got us more time to set-up the venue space which turned out absolutely beautiful. She 100% made the right call when changing first look locations and she gave us a lovely aisle to walk down even in a nontraditional space. She helped us find a rehearsal dinner space as well which turned out to be perfect for us. She was very organized, and kept us calm, even in stressful times. Billie is so sweet and she clearly loves her job. She is professional, can work around different family dynamics, and helped make our day “the best day”.
Billie and Best Day Ever are awesome! Extremely helpful and stress relieving, organized, and an absolute lifesaver while wedding planning! Made our day perfect and we couldn’t have done it without her
The search for your vendors is extremely overwhelming but the moment we got on the phone with Billie, there was no doubt we needed her as part of our planning process./wedding day. She supported every step of the way with no project too big or too small. On our monthly calls, she always reassured my decisions and even became a part time therapist helping us resolve family drama over the food tasting! Having a bridal party of 20 is a lot to wrangle, but on our wedding day, her and her assistant made the timeline process flawless keeping everyone on schedule. When my vail ripped during photos, she calmed me down and sewed it back together barely noticing the rip at all! She's a Bride's dream partner in crime and cannot recommend her enough!
Billie was recommended by a fellow planner who had originally been referred to us, but was not available. So, you could say we found Billie by accident, and what a very happy accident that was!
In summary, Billie is the consummate professional. She is knowledgeable, creative, personable, responsive, dependable and calm. Truly, she is everything you need in a planner.
Now, the details! Originally, we had only planned to hire Billie for "day of" assistance, but that would have been a mistake. Her guidance in the 9 months before the wedding was incredibly helpful. As Mother of the Bride, the monthly calls my daughter and I had with Billie's checklists as the agenda were very helpful. Between the lists and the calls, we stayed on track, and this kept the stress to a minimum. During this time, we also got to know and appreciate Billie's skills which made us feel very confident on the day of the wedding. Simply put, we knew what we had in her and didn't need to worry. Every review can say the same wonderful things, but there is no substitute for knowing your planner ahead of time and allowing her the opportunity to know you and the bride. It really makes a difference.
Other than checklists with us, Billie also contacted our vendors when needed and handled the "day of" timeline. These may sound like small things but they are huge! Also, if you have concerns that your planner will be "in your face" and the center of the day, that is NOT how Billie operates. She is there mostly in the wings, miraculously working in ways that you may never know to keep the day moving along. It's not possible to list everything she did here, but suffice to say, that after we talked about all the tasks for the "day of" in the days prior to the wedding, all of it was done flawlessly. I didn't worry because I knew I didn't have to!
Thanks to Billie, I can say that my husband and I enjoyed every moment of the wedding weekend and my daughter and her new husband did too. Forever grateful to Billie for not only helping us create, but also truly enjoy the party of a lifetime!
A friend of mine used Billie for her own backyard wedding and she spoke so highly, I never even reached out to another wedding planner when I got engaged. Our day ran so smoothly and that was all due to Billie and her assistant. Billie is meticulous, detail oriented, and cares so much for every couple she works with! Working with Billie made our planning process a breeze and it truly showed on our wedding day. I know every bride says this, but we would relive our wedding day over and over, because we really got to enjoy the day. A million thank you's to Billie because she is the reason that was possible.
I can confidently say that Best Day Ever Event Planning was one of the best decisions my husband and I made regarding our wedding. Billie is easy to talk to, organized and meticulous. She took the time to listen to what we wanted and developed a plan specific for us. Billie worked with our vendors to ensure that everyone was working towards the same goal - making our day exactly what we wanted! Her calm nature and confident aura were very appreciated on our wedding day when nerves were running high. We cannot recommend her enough!
Billie and Danielle are the best in the wedding planning game! They made my day and the days leading up worry free! I told Billie my vision and she took that vision and executed it flawlessly. Best decision hiring Best Day Ever wedding planning. If you are hesitating on hiring a planner, hestiate no more. Book Billie now, I promise you that you will not regret it!
The moment I knew that we could not have the destination event we had hoped for it became imperative that we hire Billie Sue at Best Day Ever Event Planning. Having studied her work on other events, I was sure that the only way that we could create the feeling of being at Disney World, with a touch of France, as if we were literally standing in the live action Beauty and the Beast movie was to work with Billie Sue. The whole process from beginning to end was nothing short of magical. When we look at the photos from our event we just beam with smiles and happy tears in our eyes. I am certain that we will work with Billie again and again.
I cannot thank, nor say enough about Billie. We contacted Billie in the summer while trying to figure out the direction we wanted to go in for our wedding. She was super kind and helpful on the phone. Then, we were dealing with a family emergency and decided to move forward with a small intimate wedding in my parents' backyard...in a month. Billie took that task on without hesitation, and it exceeded EVERYONE'S expectations. She turned the backyard into a magical masterpiece, and she allowed us to focus on our family instead of worrying about the wedding planning process. Even though we suffered a tragic loss only a few days before our wedding, Billie made sure that we were able to find joy in the heartache and celebrate our wedding the way our family would have, and always, wanted. Her attention to detail, communication and list of preferred vendors made our wedding everything we ever dreamed of, and more. We have received so many compliments about how beautiful everything was - she truly made a magnificent vision a reality! I highly recommend Billie and will forever be grateful for her and her talent!
Billie was great to work with and very helpful throughout the planning process! She helped make our day exactly what we had envisioned!
Before I started the wedding planning process, I didn’t think I needed a wedding planner. I had planned big trips and small parties before, so I thought it would be easy. However, after meeting with Billie at Best Day Ever, I realized that with her help, my wedding would not only be amazing, but would also be a pleasure to plan! Billie is the absolute best. She has so much knowledge about the wedding industry and the planning process, but also wants your wedding to be unique and tailored to you as a couple.
I was able to find many of my vendors, including my wonderful photographer and florist, through Billie’s recommendations. I never felt overwhelmed while planning such a big and important event because she was always checking in, helping out, and staying positive. While she was amazing throughout the entire planning process, my mind was absolutely blown the week and day of the wedding. Billie handled EVERYTHING with grace and professionalism, making sure that everything didn’t just go smoothly, but was the best day ever.
To say that she went above and beyond is the understatement of the year. I was astonished at what Billie was able to do for us, our families, and our bridal parties. I can’t recommend Billie enough, and I am so grateful to her because I now have amazing memories that my husband and I will remember forever.
Billie truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day the best day of our lives! From the moment we met Billie, we knew she was the wedding coordinator for us! We already had almost all of our vendors booked, when we our journey started with Billie, but she trusted us and our choices which meant a lot to us. She was there for us to help it be our day, instead of telling us how our day needed to be. We had a very non-traditional venue, as we got married at a family members house and Billie was there for us every step of the way! She explored the property prior to the wedding and gave us valuable ideas to make our day even more special. She dealt with all my my freak-outs and questions throughout the process, which helped me not to become a Bridezilla!! She was dedicated to each and every detail with us, from the decorations and florals for our centerpieces to even our linens choices. She also made sure the flow of the rehearsal and the wedding day was smooth and truly perfect. Which was not easy to do with 25 members in the bridal party and over 130 chairs needing to be moved in less than an hour! But because of a Billie, I did not worry ONCE about anything, which was amazing and exactly what my husband and I were looking for. If you haven’t already found your right hand woman for wedding planning then HIRE BILLIE! You will not regret it!! We love her!
Words cannot describe the experience I had with Billie. She makes you feel like you are the only priority she has. She balances multiples weddings along with raising two wonderful girls and still makes you feel your one day is the most important day. She puts a personal touch on wedding planning actually getting to know you and your future spouse as well as your family. Billie understood our vision and brought it to life. We had everyone tell us it was the best wedding they had ever been to and the most beautiful wedding. It looked like something off of pinterest and we never could have achieved that without Billie !!!
The name of Billie’s Business—Your Best Day Ever—could not be more accurate; because of Billie, our wedding truly was the Best Day Ever!
Our first meeting with Billie was basically equivalent to a relaxing weekend getaway because of the amount of relief we both felt. Billie is acutely aware of others’ personalities, and is extremely observant, picking up on quirks and preferences of the soon-to-be-married with an unbelievable speed. She immediately started gelling with our ridiculous senses of humor and was instantly in tune with which parts of the planning process we had done already, and which parts made us extremely anxious. Any time she even sensed that one of us was getting anxious about making a decision, she would tell us all the options, diplomatically give her opinion, and if it was clear that we didn’t want to make the decision and wanted her to, she would do so gladly. We found that a ton of planners want to push their agenda and what they think a wedding “should,” be, and Billie could not be more opposite. She truly was invested in us and our love, and wanted every detail to be exactly as we imagined it. On the other hand, when I refused to make certain decisions, she said “no problem! I’ve got this!”
Billie was only contractually required to meet with us once, and show up for our wedding, but she went SO above and beyond that. She came with us to meet the caterer at our venue to go over final details, and could sense my anxiety from the beginning. Whether it was a hand squeeze, a wink, or answering a question for me that she could tell I didn’t want to answer, she was there to make my husband and I feel assured that everything was going to be ok. We had the challenge of trying to fit 150 people into a 130 person venue, and before I could even start having a panic attack about that, Billie stepped in with a ton of solutions, and fixed everything. She also came to and ran our rehearsal for us the day before the wedding, and we were amazed at the speed with which it happened, but also how much control she was able to exercise over our insane group of friends and family, gaining their respect and attention with a smile on her face.
Even DURING the wedding, she was there for every little thing, before we even knew we needed her. At one point the bar ran out of whiskey, and Billie got in her car and bought some and saved the day.
Most importantly, Billie kept encouraging my husband and I to take in every moment of our day. She went above and beyond to make sure we were present and enjoying every second. It’s almost like she’s two people in one—an insanely organized planning mastermind who is disciplined and professional and makes everything run flawlessly, as well as an amazing friend who cares about each person involved and can sense everyone’s feelings and needs. Billie is more than our day-of planner—we know we will be friends with her for years to come. If you’re on the fence about calling Billie, please just trust me—it’s the BEST money you will ever spend in planning any event, and the most reasonably priced as well. Billie is one-of-a-kind, and we are so grateful that we found someone so incredible. Our day truly was perfect because of her.
Any time my husband and I are bickering about something wedding related, he gets to say “Oh yeah—well I found Billie!” and automatically wins the argument . That is the person that you want running the most important events in your life. We love you, Billie!
There truly aren’t enough words to describe how amazing and incredible Billie with Best Day Ever Weddings is. If you have a vision she will help create it. If you have a vision that may be a little cloudy DONT WORRY she will bring the sun. She makes magic happen. Her attention to detail leaves no rock or should I say diamond unturned. From the first moment I talked with Billie I felt like we had been old friends. She brings a sense of calm in all of the wedding planning chaos. She is by far the best at what she does. If you are unsure if you should book a wedding planner or not- take my advice and book with Best Day Ever Weddings! My day was absolutely flawless and everything I have ever dreamed of. Thank you so much for making all of my visions and dreams come true!!!!
Billie was and still is one of the most significant parts of our wedding day. From our first conversation, we knew as a couple Billie was meant for us. She was the backbone and support system we needed while planning such an elaborate and large event. Since we had Billie as our wedding coordinator, we were able to enjoy our planning process and our wedding day with confidence. She is extremely organized, selfless, and most of all she is focused on making her couples dreams come true. We love our Billie, and we cannot thank her enough for all that she has done to make our wedding the Best Day Ever!
Every single detail was handled with professionalism and care. The attention to our vision was exceptional.
She is so organized and pays an amazing amount of attention to detail. She makes planning painless and easy. When it came time for the big day she really made it come to life!
I wish I met Billie sooner, but in the short time I've known her she was an amazing help getting me through the last very stressful months!
Best Day Ever did not disappoint...She took care of EVERYTHING!! I do not have to worry about a thing or lift a finger!! I HIGHLY recommend them!
Thank you so so much for making my day the absolute
Best Day Ever!
It was more perfect than I ever could have dreamed. We were talking in the back of the Bentley how it felt like we were in a dream, everything was so beautiful, it didn't seem real.
I can't thank you enough for all your hard work and making sure everything went as planned.
I know you will make future couples dreams come true!
