betrothed | event & wedding planning

Emma was an absolute livesaver throughout our whole wedding and planning process! When she showed up to our first meeting with a folder that had color coded sections, we knew she was the one for us! We were originally supposed to get married May 2020, and it was so reassuring to have her on our side as we navigated our Zoom wedding, postponing our reception, finding a new venue, and making sure that our eventual reception went off without a hitch! We appreciated how organized she was, and she helped connect us to our florist, makeup & hair artists, and letterer as well. The day of, she made everything so easy for us. We basically just told our family and wedding party to hang out and listen to Emma. If you're thinking of hiring a planner, look no further; you'll thank yourself later!

When my husband and I got engaged I was very confident that we did not need a wedding planner. The two of us love planning and organizing so it seemed unnecessary. However, we met Emma while my husband was a groomsman in another wedding, and watched her work her magic firsthand. I was sold! We hired Emma as a wedding coordinator and it made all the difference in our day. When the pandemic first hit, Emma checked in with us to see how she could support us. We talked through different options, and Emma was up for any and all. Our day would not have gone so flawlessly without her. We ended up having a small ceremony at our venue and then a backyard reception. Emma helped us manage what we needed when, and coordinated with all of our vendors. She helped decorate the backyard and clean up at the end of the night, and brought decor and set up our ceremony site. Don’t even get my started on her emergency kit, it is beyond impressive. Emma also was available the days after the wedding to check in if there were items we couldn’t find/locate.Because of Covid and our plans shifting so much I had a lot of worries/stress going into our wedding day. However, Emma took care of everything so I was actually able to enjoy our full wedding day. Most of that was because I knew that if something went wrong, Emma was there to manage it. This also took the stress off our family and bridal party. Emma communicated with us throughout the day so we knew what was happening, without having to worry about it. She checked in with us to see if what was planned still worked or if we needed to adjust at all. I cannot recommend hiring Emma enough, it will make all the difference.

I am so happy that we hired Emma to help with wedding planning. It is one thing that a lot of couples don't think that they need, but it took so much of the stress away and we actually enjoyed the planning process! There are so many moving parts involved with planning a wedding, and Emma made the whole process a breeze. From day one, Emma was there to help us with vendor research (especially with comparing venues), as well as answering any questions we had. Emma is very professional and friendly. 2020 has been a difficult year for everyone, and trying to plan a wedding with so many unknowns was not the most fun I have ever had. Emma continued to support us through the pandemic and stayed up to date with the rules and regulations so we had a good idea of what our day would look like from pretty early on. On the day of the wedding, Emma's team helped with everything from setting up table centerpieces and other decor, to making sure my husband and I had everything we needed throughout the night. Once the wedding started, we had nothing to worry about because we knew we were in good hands and we were really able to enjoy our day with our guests. For anyone on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, you will absolutely not regret hiring Emma and the betrothed team!!

We hired Betrothed Weddings & Events for month-of planning and my only regret is that we did not hire Emma for full service planning. Even though we only hired Betrothed for month-of services, Emma still checked in with us every month from the moment we hired her and made sure all of our questions were answers as we navigated the planning process. She always made us feel supported and heard every step of the way! 2 months leading up to our wedding, Emma was always organized in gathering all the details she need to know how to make our day the best! Her insight and guidance were extremely valuable and our vendor team raved about working with her. On the wedding weekend itself, Emma conducted a very thorough Rehearsal with our entire bridal party and family so everyone knew what to expect the next day. She even had packets made for everyone involved with visuals on when to walk down the aisle and where to stand, along with a timeline of the day. On the day itself, everything went amazing and Emma and her assistant were there to ensure we didn't have to worry about a thing! Emma was so trustworthy, valuable, and was the best decision we made. We cannot thank her enough and will always remember our favorite day and how seamless it went because of her!

I highly recommend betrothed for any of your wedding planning needs! Emma was an absolute godsend as my day-of coordinator. I was initially on the fence about spending money on any outside planning services for my wedding. I was set on doing it all myself, but let me tell you - hiring betrothed was worth every penny! Throughout the entire process, Emma made sure that she understood my vision and always put my mind at ease. During the planning process, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was communicated clearly. She offered insight when needed without pushing me to do anything. On the actual wedding day, she coordinated everything. She kept things on track, intercepted any questions, addressed any concerns, and made sure I (the bride) didn't have to worry about anything. I should also mention that my family, wedding party, guests, and vendors all loved interacting with the betrothed team. I should also mention that their pricing is extremely competitive. You will certainly get a LOT of  value for the investment in Emma and her team.

We cannot thank Emma enough for the amazing job she did as our wedding planner!! Tim and I had our wedding at Mill 1 at Open Square and were given 3 hours before the reception to set everything up ourselves. We thought we could do it ourselves, but quickly realized what an impossible task this would be the day of the wedding. We had outside vendors for our caterer, cake, photographer, and dj that Emma coordinated with to make our day run perfectly. Emma took so much stress off of us that day by coordinating everything, setting up our reception space, and even dropping off all the decorations right at our house that night. She set a timeline up for the day and sent it to all the vendors which helped keep everyone including our wedding party on track with where they had to be and when. The night before the wedding I lost the best man’s tie and asked her to look through the decorations I gave her. When she couldn’t find it, she offered to go out and get him one before the ceremony. She was amazing and really took the stress off of us. The day of the wedding the one job of my wedding party was to pack me snacks...which they forgot, but luckily Emma’s husband who was helping her out came to the rescue with granola bars (she even had snacks prepared!!) The vendors were all impressed with Emma and kept asking us where we found her because they “never saw such incredible organization and kindness.” Even our priest was impressed with how smoothly the rehearsal went and loved her picture chart of where everyone would walk in/stand. I could go on forever about how amazing Emma and her husband are, but you should find out for yourself and book her for your wedding! She is truly one of a kind and will help make your day everything you dreamed it would be.

Hiring Emma was the absolute best decision we made in regards to our wedding day. Thank you does not even begin to cover how we feel in the afterglow of our wedding. Emma consistently went above and beyond to ensure we were happy and comfortable throughout this whole process. Her professionalism and experience excels in handling each detail, vendor and moving piece. We knew we needed extra help in planning our wedding - Emma helped us get organized, stay organized and execute on our vision. Our wedding day was perfect, all thanks to the support of Emma and her patience, kindness and passion for seeing our dreams come to life. We could not recommend Emma and her services highly enough! THANK YOU!

Emma of betrothed was truly WONDERFUL to work with. Friendly, organized, and extremely capable. We enrolled her services just a few weeks before our wedding when we realized we needed a day-of coordinator for our outdoor ceremony. She was immediately available by phone and met with my fiancé and me a few days later to discuss our plans. She was impressively organized while also easy going. She followed up with all of our vendors to ensure everything was ready and responded quickly to our email questions (we didn't have urgent questions that required phone or texting but I'm sure she would have responded really quickly to those as well). We had a ceremony rehearsal the day before the wedding and our family members were really impressed with Emma. Her friendly nature put everyone at ease and we all left the rehearsal knowing that the ceremony would run totally smoothly. Which it did! She even did extra tasks that made our lives so much easier like bring and remove potted palms with which we decorated the area of the park where we got married. I would highly recommend betrothed to any couple looking for help planning, organizing, or carrying out any aspect of their wedding!
