Cindy was an amazing help with month-of preparations and her team did a great job with day-of execution. They made sure that the venue was set up exactly to my vision, kept us on track for all of the reception moments and made sure that all of our family photos and personal items made it back up to our room at the end of the evening! Thank you!!
Cindy was and is AMAZING. From the moment we began communication, she was super helpful in answering all my questions and really made me feel more secure despite all the stress. She made sure my vision was executed. We had a lot of things change the day of due to weather and other situations but she kept a calm demeanor, helped me roll with the changes, and facilitated everyone’s duties the day of. Ashley (part of Cindy’s team and second coordinator for my wedding day) was also fantastic and helped a lot with set up at our ceremony and reception. They were both truly my calmness in the midst of chaos, helping with everything you can possibly think of. I only hired Cindy for day of coordination but I’m 100% positive you wouldn’t regret hiring her and her team for full services as well. I will be recommending her to everyone and will make sure to reach out for any future events.
Thank you so much, Cindy and Ashley!
Cindy was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was a very grounding, stable presence, and helped us feel more confident that everything was in place and would run smoothly. She put out lots of little fires that we weren’t even aware of and we are forever grateful! Cindy is very communicative, warm, and on top of things, and I would recommend her to all my friends and family. Booking her for our day of coordinator was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
Any questions?
A day-of-coordinator is one of the last wedding vendors I considered, and working with Cindy made me wish I booked her right after getting engaged! Every step of the process working with Cindy demonstrated her professionalism, skill, and kindness. From our first consultation call, she immediately put me at ease and shared her own experience with weddings similar to ours.
Throughout the planning process, she was highly accessible starting from the time we booked with her, striking the best balance of offering her perspective while encouraging us to make the decision that was best for us. She also offered invaluable insight such as recommending an excellent videographer who we were very happy with. Despite her busy schedule during peak wedding season, she always ensured that I, my now husband, and parents felt heard and received her full attention.
The night before my wedding, a vendor reached out with a timing concern that would have led me to panic had it not been for Cindy, who solved the issue without my having to give it a second thought, leading to the ceremony entrance that my husband and I dreamed of.
The day of my wedding, Cindy and Caroline immediately brought a sense of calm and joy when my bridesmaids and I were getting ready, and were on top of little wrinkles that arose in the plan, such as when a transportation vendor didn’t show up. I hadn’t realized that there would be so many wedding items to keep track of (vendor gratuities, favors, signs, toasting flutes, etc etc etc), but Cindy and Caroline ensured that all these things were set up correctly at the venue, and packed up at the end of the night.
Overall, it is hard to imagine how the day would have gone without them. They were unquestionably an essential part of how we were able to enjoy some calm and lots of fun during our wedding day, and we are so grateful to them!
Cindy and team were awesome! They understood our vision and helped execute on it :)
Cindy, Caroline, and Nathalie were the best to work with for day-of wedding coordination. They asked every relevant question, kept us on top of all logistics, and went above and beyond the day of. Nathalie steamed my dressed which took a much needed weight off of my shoulders. Caroline communicated in a calm way and shared ideas/solutions as needed. It provided such peace of mind to have them there and they were very easy to delegate to when needed. They were proactive, friendly, and just the type of people you want around on your wedding day. Highly recommend!
Cindy is the most amazing wedding planner! Everything was so effortless and seamless, and made our day so perfect. Highly recommend Cindy! Thank you so much! ☺️
Cindy's team was AWESOME!! We only hired them for the day of coordination, but they were on it a month before our wedding. Their planning was strong, and they didn't miss a single detail (and even provided suggestions on something that I had not thought of!). I was stressing about all the DIY stuff we had, but Caroline and Nathalie handled them like pros. They made sure everything was just how we wanted on the big day. And they even packed up our stuff and dropped it off at the hotel afterward! Total lifesavers. Can't thank them enough for making our wedding run so smoothly.
Cindy was absolutely wonderful. We only used her for “day of” coordination, but she was available months ahead of time for little questions that we had. As far as the day of, our wedding was quite literally the best day of my life and Cindy played a big role in that. We did a ton of DIY things to save money and I felt a little guilty having to have Cindy’s team set everything up, but they handled it with ease and I was never worried on the day of. Our reception space looked even better than I pictured! Even when some things didn’t go quite right (the weather caused some delays, our caterers messed up a few things with dinner/cocktail hour, etc) Cindy made sure that our guests were unaware and that things got back on track. We received so many compliments on how flawless and fun our day was, and we have Cindy to thank for that!
As a career coordinator/project manager, I debated the need for a day-of coordinator. Hiring Cynthia (Cindy) was hands down the best decision we made! Cindy was there for me when I had questions and concerns. She picked up the wedding coordination during those crucial 30 days, was so proactive and resolved those small issues that I know, had I not had her on my team, would have festered. That is Cindy professionally but her personality is what really made the entire wedding planning process and wedding day, as perfect as you could imagine. I kid you not. I think from the moment I met Cindy, I just took on the calm and positive demeanor she exuded and from then on it was just true fun! We met Caroline the day of the wedding and she was just as sweet, calm, positive and on it! These women are such a powerhouse! Thank you ladies. Thank you so, so much!
Hiring Cindy was the best decision I made for my wedding day - she is amazing!
I went back and forth on booking a day of coordinator for a few months, thinking “do I really need this!?” Let me be the first to tell you — everyone needs Cindy on their wedding day! It was hands down our best money spent.
Cindy put together an amazing timeline, coordinated with all of our vendors leading up to the day-of, and set up all of our decor the day-of. Cindy was also a savior and unpacked/set up a veryyyy last minute arrival of decor that did not make it to the venue. I never even knew the box was missing — and while she managed all of the chaos, I was able to truly enjoy every minute of my day. She also packed up all of our decor so we were able to pick them up and go home the next morning without stress!
Cindy also had Celinda there to assist — while Cindy was coordinating with vendors and ensuring decor was perfectly set up, Celinda was with me the entire morning. She made sure I always had lipstick on, made sure I had food/drinks, and also got some really beautiful pictures/videos!
I couldn’t recommend Cindy more highly - you should book her now!
I planned my wedding in 4 months, but knew I needed a day of coordinator so that I could be stress free on the day of. Two weeks before my wedding, I broke my foot and was terrified that my wedding would be ruined. Cindy was so kind and encouraging and assured me that the wedding would still be wonderful and she was right. Cindy and Caroline did everything to ensure that the day ran smoothly. They took care of my groom and his kids and were by my side listening and supporting me the entire day. I had forgotten I had a broken foot because they did everything to allow me to relax and enjoy such a perfect evening. They made my vision come to life and we were all so happy. Patient, kind, thoughtful, accommodating, encouraging, creative, loving and wonderful team! Thank you Cindy and Caroline!!!
I have nothing but amazing things to say about Cindy and her team. Cindy was very kind and helpful leading up to the wedding. She was a calming presence amidst the chaos of everything leading up to the big day. On the day of the wedding itself, she was instrumental. She took care of every detail that I thought of and many that I didn't. It's because of her and her team that I was able to enjoy the day as much as I did. She's absolutely wonderful!
Cindy (Cynthia) was AMAZING. We hired Cindy to be our Day-of Coordinator, but she was so much more. She had great recommendations for any other vendor you may need if you are planning your own wedding. She was great about checking in a month before our wedding, and a week out, she fully walked through the whole wedding day with us, which was great for keeping small details in check. On the day of the wedding, I was able to show up at the venue and just enjoy myself. Cindy and her assistant Celinda were on top of all of the small things - tapping us when it was time to dance, time to cut the cake, working with the venue folk. Honestly, hiring Cindy was the best decision I had made for our wedding. Love her!
When I started planning my wedding and learned that the venue required me to have a Day-of Coordinator, I thought- but why? I’m doing all the planning myself, can’t I just be the point of contact or have a friend or family member help on the day-of? They listed off a number of scenarios where it would be not just helpful but imperative to have a dedicated point person. And on the day of my wedding, almost EVERY SINGLE ONE of those scenarios occurred. I interviewed five Day-of coordinators. Cindy seemed warm, organized, experienced, and calm and I liked her right away. Her rate was also very competitive so it was an easy decision to sign a contract. We spoke again about a month before the wedding to work out a timeline, she answered some questions I had, and she asked some great detail-oriented questions of her own about things that hadn’t even occurred to me. She created a by-the-minute timeline and confirmed everything with my other vendors. On the actual day, she and her team were punctual, professional, and fun! The day would not have gone nearly as smoothly without Cindy and Caroline running the show behind the scenes like gorgeous ninjas! My wedding day turned out to be as perfect and magical as anyone could possibly hope for. Whether you are looking for help on the day of your wedding or full service wedding planning services- without any hesitation whatsoever I would recommend working with Cindy!!
I can't even begin to express how grateful we are to Cynthia Ross Events for their outstanding work during our wedding. Cynthia and Caroline were an absolute dream team, and their dedication and expertise made our special day truly magical.
From the moment Cynthia showed up, she was ready to tackle anything that came her way. She was punctual, and professional, and worked seamlessly with all the other vendors. She wasted no time in getting down to business and ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Her tireless efforts throughout the night were truly commendable.
One of the standout moments was when my bustle broke in the middle of the night. Without hesitation, Cynthia was there to assist and save the day. Her quick thinking and problem-solving skills were impressive, and she helped me with grace and ease. Her presence alone brought such a sense of calm and reassurance during what could have been a stressful moment.
Cynthia's professionalism and attention to detail were evident from our very first Zoom meeting. She took the time to understand our vision and preferences, and she made sure every aspect of the event was planned meticulously. We interviewed a few coordinators, but Cynthia stood out among them all, and we knew we had made the right choice.
Throughout the planning process, Cynthia averted numerous potential meltdowns. Her ability to handle unforeseen circumstances and make necessary adjustments on the spot was remarkable. Thanks to her expertise, our wedding day was incredibly calm and stress-free.
The event itself was nothing short of magical, and we owe a great deal of that to Cynthia and Caroline. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes, ensuring that every detail was executed flawlessly. Their dedication and passion truly shone through, and we couldn't have asked for a better team.
If you're looking for a wedding coordinator who will go above and beyond to make your day perfect, look no further than Cynthia Ross Events. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to keep things running smoothly are unmatched. We can't thank Cynthia and Caroline enough for making our wedding a truly unforgettable experience.
During our first interaction with Cynthia over the phone, we noticed that she was very thorough as she went through all the nuanced details of the wedding day (some that we hadn’t even thought about!) On our wedding day, she did a great job at handling these details, from interactions with vendors to coordinating things behind the scenes. Ultimately, we weren’t stressed out and were able to enjoy our special day because of Cynthia and her team!
Don’t hesitate to hire Cindy as your wedding coordinator! She is such a professional and wonderful to be around - so calm, kind and competent. I hired her as my month-of coordinator and I cannot imagine how my wedding would have gone without her. Her team is so organized and on-top of everything. She worked seamlessly with my other vendors and helped me plan every minute of my timeline. On my wedding day, every time I went to ask her to do something, she was already on top of it and she made the day run so smoothly. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Cindy is truly talented and will take so much stress out of your wedding day!
Cindy was enormously helpful and an absolute joy to work with! We really enjoyed getting to know her and were so grateful to be able to rely on her for all the nitty-gritty details. She was very easy to communicate and so friendly, genuinely invested in our vision for our wedding and excited for us. On the day of the wedding, we were so glad she could run the show. She and her lovely assistant Caroline made sure everything went off without a hitch and provided assistance on everything from shepherding our families around to fixing the zipper on the mother-of-the-bride's dress! Cindy is so organized and on top of everything, which made our event run incredibly smoothly. She is a gem and we highly recommend working with her!!
Cindy was a total pro and a total pleasure. She took the responsibility for orchestrating a multi-venue day right off my shoulders so that I could enjoy myself. I highly recommend Cynthia Ross Events!
Cynthia and Celinda were absolutely wonderful day of coordinators. They made sure all details were taken care of and nothing was left behind, and always knew the right time to forward big decision questions to us (the couple) while taking care of other logistic things that we didn’t have time to think about! Most importantly, they were above and beyond at being supportive, hard working, and organized for us every step of the way, from steaming and re-steaming and cleaning the dresses, to fixing small things that got broken, to negotiating two last minute changes in the ceremony space locations.. We had planned our own wedding and loved planning it ourselves, and aside from the ceremony space locations everything went off without a hitch, but nothing can really prepare you for how busy and hectic the day of really is for the newlywed couple. Without Cynthia and Celinda there, I (the bride) definitely would’ve had a break down because there just wasn’t enough time and hands on deck for everything. They are amazing and we would highly recommend!!!
Cynthia (or Cindy) is exactly who you would want as a Day-of Coordinator. She and her assistant Caroline were wonderful. I knew we needed a Coordinator for our backyard Hampton wedding, but what I didn't know was how valuable one would be. Cindy was there for me with vendor recommendations in the few months leading up to the wedding. About a month before, she walked us through a preliminary timeline of how the day would go. She seemed unperturbed that we didn't have all of the vendors completely sorted and was always nothing but understanding when we had to send her updates to the timeline. All that being said, the entire day went seamlessly! Even though the wedding day was the first time she and Caroline had seen our venue, they had such a handle on everything we wanted. I not only trusted them when something came up but I could relax throughout the day with their help and guidance. Highly recommend!
When I tell you this woman saved my wedding I mean it! I, like many brides, thought I could do this on my own, no Coordinator needed. It wasn't until the final couple of months beforehand that I realized all the small details that were falling through the cracks and that I was in WAY over my head. That is when Cynthia came into my life. Not only did we hire her like the month before our wedding (which is like no time to just take over) but we gave her a mess of a wedding day timeline and just a list of vendors and our fears about our venue - basically a hot mess. She took all of that mess and made my day PERFECT!!! She was so communicative and friendly and immediately put me at ease. She reached out to all my vendors, made sure everyone was on the same page, took over all the things my wedding party were going to handle, and basically fixed my timeline and executed everything on the day of FLAWLESSLY. But more than that, she went above and beyond her role to bring me comfort and support when something major happened in my life a couple weeks before my wedding. We were having a routine call to go over some details, and when I told her what was going on, she stayed on the phone with me for two hours just chatting and she has no idea in the moment how much I needed that conversation and her words. I honestly don't know how I could've had my wedding without her - I would give a million stars if I could!
Cynthia is INCREDIBLE. Seriously she did not miss a BEAT. She was there whenever and wherever I needed her on my wedding day. She connected me with almost all of my vendors and was very thorough leading up to the big day. She’s responsive, organized, efficient, helpful and kind!!! Do yourself and your wedding a favor and include her on your big day! She’s the absolute best!!!
Let’s face it, there is always one thing big or small that you wish would have been better on your wedding day, but not Cindy!
Cindy was an absolute DREAM. My husband and I are so glad that we found Cindy to help us on our special day. Even though we only had Cindy as our day of/ month of coordinator, she made sure we had plenty of calls leading up to the wedding and was always there when we had questions. Wedding planning is always stressful but Cindy was so calming
and our calls with her were always productive. On the day of the wedding, Cindy was nothing but prepared. She was always there when we needed her and had everything I forgot to pack in that magical bag of hers. From coordinating with the other vendors to making sure the venue looks exactly like our visions, she made it happen! I whole heartedly recommend Cindy to anyone wedding planning. You won’t regret it!
We hired Cynthia as our day-of coordinator, and it was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning! First of all, we loooove her bubbly personality!! she’s super friendly and very easy to talk to. When we had our first initial meeting, we instantly felt relieved and knew that we could rely on her! Our wedding day, she made sure everything went smoothly and executed everything that I requested be done on the day! We highly recommend her if you are looking for a wedding planner/ coordinator for your special day. She won’t let you down!
Response from the Vendor on 04/07/2022
Thank you so much for the kind words and for allowing us to be part of your special day!
We used Cindy for day of coordination for our wedding day and she really is the absolute BEST. I had lots of ideas that she helped me execute and made sure my unique vision for our wedding day came to life! She kept us right on track with time throughout the day and was always there when we needed her... not to mention she is the sweetest as well! She even snapped some amazing photos on her phone for us that we had right away (while we wait to get our photos from our photographer). Highly recommend her and have already to lots of my friends!
Prior to my one month meeting with Cynthia, I had multiple documents with wedding stuff and I was so unorganized! Cynthia put together perfectly organized document which really helped me organize my thoughts and plans much more clearly! I am SO happy I decided to book her and would recommend her 100000 times! Her and her assistant Salinda were always nearby looking for ways to help or things to do. They were so prepared with basically everything we would have needed (scissors, tide to go, waters, etc). They made sure the whole day ran smoothly. Salinda even took some photos and sent them that same day.
If you are looking to have peace of mind on the day of your wedding, look no further!! Book with Cynthia. She is sooo sweet and professional, and amazing at her job.
Cindy was amazing leading up to and on my wedding day! She helped coordinate logistics with all of our vendors, but most importantly, she truly took away all of my stress on the wedding day. It felt like having a clone of myself - whenever I thought of a small thing to check on, Cindy was there and did it instantly. Her attention to detail was so appreciated and she allowed me to fully enjoy the day, knowing that everything would go as planned. Thank you, Cindy!!!
Cindy was absolutely the best. Wish we had found her a little earlier in the planning process because she was extremely helpful with everything and had brought up things we did not even think of. She was extremely reliable and did everything she could to make sure the wedding went smoothly. We highly recommend Cindy!!
Before meeting up with Cindy, I had heard so much positive reviews as the ultimate wedding planner/coordinator from two of my coworkers. Hence, I didn't bother to search around. Thankfully, Cindy was available for my wedding day so I was able to relax and enjoyed the beautiful moments with my friends and family. Cindy and her assistant not just executed my wedding smoothly ( including the details items I would like to incorporate at my wedding) but also solved the unexpected issues caused by other vendors. She stayed later than her contract time to make sure everything was cleaned and picked up. I am truly grateful for her kindness and professionalism.
Cynthia was organized, calm, and handled everything with ease and care. She was very reliable and detail-oriented, kind and thoughtful. She thought of things we hadn't and dealt with all the vendors at the event, so my husband and I could relax and enjoy our wedding - which we did! Good times!
Cindy is absolutely wonderful to work with! I planned my wedding myself and hired Cindy for the day-of-coordination service. I was very lucky to have great venue and vendors to work with, part of the reason was that I spent lots of time talking to potential vendors and picked the ones I feel were the best match for me. After first talking to Cindy on the phone, I felt comfortable immediately. She is super thoughtful, professional, kind, and most importantly, listened to my thoughts and needs. Throughout the process of working with Cindy, she impressed me with her professionalism - she definitely knows what she's doing and provided great guidance for me (working with her to generate the timeline for the day was extremely helpful, I don't think I can do that without her help). On the day-of, Cindy provided top-notch service - everything ran super smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a single thing! I would highly recommend Cindy!!!
Cindy was amazing. She is such a professional. My wedding was on June 15th 2019. I booked her because she was the coordinator for my sisters wedding and I said if I ever got married I would want her by my side. Cindy coordinated my entire day and it was well done. She arrived on time and she was by my side, making my day go smoothly. I highly recommend Cindy and her staff for whatever occasion you might be having. I cannot say it enough she is simply amazing. I love her, she is the best you will find out there. At the end of the day all my personal belongings were packaged and ready to go the entire process was seamless.
Cindy is the absolute best! My day went by so smoothly and perfect thanks to her! She is professional, kind, and amazing! She arrived and just knew what to do. She has such a calming demeanor and is on top of everything! My husband and I were so happy to have her and even days after the wedding couldn't stop talking about how she truly made sure our day was executed to absolute perfection. We will forever be grateful!
I want to start off by saying i could not of had the perfect wedding day without her and her assistant. Cynthia made sure everything was organized from beginning to end, most importantly she had my entire bridal party and myself on time for each segment throughout my wedding day. Cynthia kept everyone calm and informed she also showed up early and made sure i had everything i needed up until the last minute. I could not of enjoyed my day without her she made me stress free. Cynthia also brought her assistant with her which was a life savor, she held everyones personal belongings helped the bridal party get ready and took hundreds of extra pictures for me. If i could do it all over again i would and Cynthia would be right by my side, she was truley a pleasure to work with and honestly the best money spent.
Cindy was fantastic from beginning to end. We initially thought we didn't need a DoC until we met Cindy for the first time (she came to us in our apartment), and when she began our first meeting we realized how detail oriented and insanely organized Cindy is. We absolutely needed her. She thought of details and questions that never crossed our minds and was incredibly responsive and professional throughout the entire process. On the day of, Cindy saved the day in so many ways. She and her assistant are insanely effective and experienced. I jokingly told Cindy that she is my adopted big sister! Save yourself the stress and heartache. Get Cindy!
In a nutshell, Cynthia is the REAL deal. You don’t have to look elsewhere, I promise. After checking her website, social media and prior client reviews, my husband and I decided to contact her and schedule a meeting. From the very beginning she was professional, responsive, cooperative, organized, knowledgeable about her craft, detailed, honest, well the list can go on. We knew, we had to hire her. We hired Cynthia for Wedding Planning & Coordinator Services (full wedding planning services). Cynthia was a major part of our wedding planning. We met her when she was expecting her first child, and even after she had her daughter, she never skipped a beat. She was always responsive and helped in any way possible. Thanks to Cynthia, she executed every item in our wedding wish list. She gave us reliable vendor recommendations, and if we were weary of any of them, she would research others. She was so patient with us, as my husband and I have very busy schedules. She wasn’t pushy and we appreciated this very much of her, as we had experienced a pushy wedding planner before her. Wow! She was the total opposite and never pushed anything on us. Her major concern was our happiness and that we enjoy our wedding, and that we did. Cynthia was also kind enough to accompany us to vendor meetings and helped us negotiate, if needed. Cynthia was our biggest supporter, who needs a hype man/ cheerleader when you have Cynthia by your side?! We trusted her with with the most important day of our lives and she nailed it. We thoroughly enjoyed our wedding thanks to Cynthia and her assistant, Celinda. We didn’t stress the small stuff as we knew Cynthia and Celinda had everything under control. When we think back at our wedding, not only do we remember having an amazing time, but we also remember Cynthia being there every step of the way. Cynthia made sure our bridal party was on time and were where they needed to be at. She kept constant communication with our vendors leading up to our wedding day. She made sure our pictures and video were captured seamlessly. She checked in on us to make sure we were okay and were living in the present moment. So many things go on behind the scenes, I have no clue how Cynthia and Celinda kept their cool and smiled throughout the whole event. I would have lost my mind, haha. We will forever be grateful and we wouldn’t know what we would have done without Cynthia. We will surely miss our daily communication! It was fun planning our wedding. We are happy we hired Cynthia and would recommend her to our family and friends. Thanks again, Cindy! You were one of the best investments we made for our wedding :)
When my older daughter got married 6 years ago, we found Cindy, and we loved her! So when my younger daughter got engaged last year, of course we knew we couldn’t have a wedding without Cynthia Ross Events. I honestly don’t know how people do it without her! I’ve heard from some people, and reception venues, “We have a wonderful bridal attendant, so you really don’t need a Day of Coordinator”. Well I beg to differ. We had an awesome bridal attendant too, but they do completely different jobs. Cindy was my right arm. She’s coordinating and confirming your vendors, she’s dealing with boutineres being distributed, she’s holding on to everyone’s belongings, she’s helping the mother of the bride get dressed, she’s finding the father of the bride when he’s in the gym, she’s creating your timeline to keep you on schedule, she’s holding and distributing tips to ALL VENDORS all day, she’s fixing ripped hems, she’s fixing knocked over candles lining the ceremony aisle, etc., etc. I could go on all day. There is no way I could have enjoyed one moment of my daughter’s wedding without her. And, she is an absolute doll. She is just lovely. As the mother of the bride, Cindy was the gift I gave myself. Believe me, you’ll need her!
Best experience ever! Cindy did day-of coordination for our wedding reception in Queens. She communicated with all our vendors in advance of the event to ensure they arrived on time to the venue. On the day of our reception, Cindy and her assistant Celinda coordinated all the preparations between our various vendors (decorator, caterer, bartender, cake, etc.) There were a few last-minute mishaps with vendors, which would have been stressful, but Cindy handled everything and made the event even better than we could have hoped! She and her assistant went above and beyond their jobs as coordinators to make sure the event was extraordinary and flawless. Hiring Cindy was by far the best decision we made for our reception. We strongly recommend working with Cindy for any event-related service. THANK YOU CINDY!
Oh. My. Goodness. I can not say enough about Cindy. She and her team were absolutely incredible. I could not imagine the day with out her and I would recommend her to anyone having a wedding...or doing anything. She was essential. She made the day run like a dream. Everything was the way I dreamt it. She handled everything beautifully and I actually enjoyed my wedding with out worrying about a thing. All my of bridesmaids still can't stop talking about how amazing Cindy was. Our first call she completely eased my mind by going over the most detailed timeline ever-which just put me so at ease. She's clearly so professional and has been doing this for a while which makes you feel in really good hands yet she gets there and shares in your excitement like she hasn't been to a million weddings and it's because every wedding is truly special to her and you can tell she really loves what she does.
On the day she was on time and came prepared with anything you could ever need. She helped me into my dress and the top, for whatever reason, was a little too big-So while I was slightly freaking out in my head, Cindy whipped out clear dress tape and knew exactly where to tape it down and she literally saved me- I felt comfortable and ready to dance the night away- Seriously- just go with Cindy.
After seeing how wonderful Cindy was for my sister's wedding I knew I had to have her for my own. She was one of the first vendors we booked and I was so glad we had her during the whole process. She was always there to answer any questions I had, was flexible and willing to come to us when we had our in person meeting, and really understood my vision. When I had an issue with another vendor, I consulted Cindy and she was immediately willing to step in and take that stress off my shoulders. The day of the wedding I would have been lost without her and Celinda. They took care of any questions anybody had, overlooked the set up of the venue to make sure it would be exactly as I wanted, they even found a way to fix my dress when my bustle broke. I am forever grateful to have had Cindy as part of my team for my wedding day!
We obtained her services about a month prior to the wedding as we realized how many moving parts there would be on the wedding day. She was up to speed extremely fast, was attentive to details, and was a responsive communicator. She clearly understood what we wanted to happen and that put us at great ease as we trusted that she would do a great job. Cynthia and her assistant had very sweet and professional attitudes and are true professionals. They are well worth it.
We would hire her again and she was exactly what we needed for a day of coordinator.
We were so lucky to be able to work with Cindy on our wedding day. Not only was she helpful in bringing our design vision to life but she was an absolute blast to spend the day with! We can not say enough about how professional and thorough she was in making our wedding picture perfect. We will definitely work with Cindy again on our next special event.
-Samantha & Timothy Goodrich
Cindy is absolutely worth every penny. As a local bride with a demanding corporate job, I was originally researching planners to handle the details of my event but I didn’t want to hand over the highly personalized process of planning a wedding to someone who didn’t know me. I decided to go with Cindy after working with her during my sisters wedding five years earlier and hearing raving reviews from friends who have used her as well. A Day-of coordinator was exactly what I needed. Cindy was reasonably priced and worked with me as far out as six months from my wedding day. We had a preliminary meeting where we discussed my bridal vision and Cindy offered vendor recommendations, I got to experience all the vendor appointments myself but was able to hand over contracts and contacts to Cindy to coordinate which made my wedding day a breeze. Cindy was extremely professionally and super responsive leading up to the event. On the day of, Cindy was poised and calm which helped during a few bumpy moments and even sprang into action when I broke my high heel by rushing over to the Leather Spa with her assistant Celinda and having it fixed just in time for me to walk down the aisle. She seriously saved the day! Highly recommend, would give her 10 stars if I could!
Where do I begin? Cindy really is as wonderful as you have read. Cindy was my day of coordinator for my wedding. I found her about a year prior to my wedding through online reviews. We started with a phone conversation to brainstorm wedding ideas (as I had no clue where to really start). I immediately clicked with Cindy, she was super sweet, professional, organized, and clear. About a month prior to the wedding (which everyone will tell you is when you start to feel the weight of the planning) we touched base with final details and ideas. A week prior Cindy contacted all my vendors and confirmed with them. I cannot emphasize what a stress relief that alone was.
The day of my wedding...I actually enjoyed my wedding! I was present, not distracted, and genuinely at ease. I owe this to Cindy. She and her assistant made the day seamless, kept large groups of people on time (ceremony and reception were in two different places with shuttles running in between which I've hear horror stories about but went perfectly), coordinated with the photographer to get the group photos we wanted while not interrupting the flow of the party, and made sure vendor breakdowns were completed on time. In addition to managing all the moving parts of the wedding exceptionally well, Cindy also understands that it is a special day for you. She checked in to make sure I felt beautiful (got my curling iron and makeup when my hair got all frizzy from rain and saw the distress in my face), made sure had something eat! and actually enjoyed the food my fiancé and I spent so much time choosing. Oh and she and her assistant speak Spanish, which I didn't know but turned out to be a godsend as a considerable number of people in the wedding party could now understand what was going on. No biggie right?!
Choosing Cindy and her team was the best thing I did. She is genuinely lovely. If your looking for a day of coordinator, stop looking and pick Cindy, you won't regret it.
We hired Cynthia Ross and team as our day of wedding coordinator. Cynthia and her team were great! They exceeded our expectations! They made our wedding day run extremely smoothly and they were there by our side through the whole wedding. They were able to handle our crowd of over 460 guests and even managed to make sure everything ran on time! They were very experienced and understood our Indian traditions. Thank you so much Cynthia Ross for making our wedding great! We highly recommend Cynthia Ross Events for any and all events!
I wish I could give more stars....
I got married in Brooklyn this past March and I have only rave reviews for Cindy and her team at Cynthia Ross Events. I am so happy I found her early in my planning process!! To give you a brief overview, I am a pretty OCD/picky bride. I knew that I wanted to incorporate many of my own design elements during my wedding but quickly realized that I was going to need help executing tasks on the day of. Cindy and her team were the perfect fit for me and for all my day-of needs.
Of all the wedding planners/coordinators I contacted (~10ish), Cindy was by far the most calming/reassuring, helpful and professional/competent planners that my husband and I talked to. Her pricing was also very competitive and if I had more flexibility in my budget, I would have used her full-package wedding planning services.
Quality of Service: When speaking with Cindy, you can immediately tell that she has confidence and experience to ensure that your special day goes off without a hitch. Also, you can tell that she genuinely is excited for your wedding (even though I’m sure she has done this many many times).
Responsiveness: Cindy always responded to my emails and texts promptly and delivered contracts, paperwork on time. Most importantly, and a sign of a great coordinator, I didn’t hear from any of my vendors the week of my wedding. She is also a great people person, which is reassuring when your one million family members will be pestering her on the day-of.
Professionalism: Cindy and her team arrived on time, helped to set up and break down all my décor, and executed all timelines beautifully. It was an absolute pleasure working with her from start to finish.
Value/Flexibility: Cindy was very transparent in her pricing which was so nice when budgeting for a full-scale event. She was also super flexible with my ideas and vision for how I wanted my wedding to play out.
I highly recommend Cindy and Cynthia Ross Events to all my friends and family!
Cynthia was amazing from start to finish. I pride myself on being organized, but things happen on your wedding day that are beyond your control. I felt completely confident with Cynthia working with my venue. She is a true professional !
Cynthia Ross Events is incredible! Cindy was highly recommended to us from a friend, and as soon as we met her, we knew we couldn’t wait to work with her for our November 2016 wedding. Cindy acted as our day-of coordinator to ensure we did not have to worry about anything on our wedding day. We met with Cindy a few times before our big day, and each time she was super helpful and prepared, not to mention she is so genuinely nice! She was a priceless asset in helping us plan out the timeline of our day- we had many moving parts since were got married at a Church with our reception at a different venue, had guests staying at a hotel, had transportation, etc. She helped seamlessly coordinate it all! She also contacted all of our vendors the week leading up to our wedding to confirm with them so we did not have to worry about a thing! On our wedding day both Cindy and Celinda (Cindy’s assistant for the day) were fantastic- they were reliable, super helpful, and extremely professional. Knowing I had Cindy there to worry about the details, let me relax and take in all the small moments of my special day. We are so thankful and appreciative for everything Cindy did for us to make our wedding perfect. We could not have asked for a better experience from start to finish- Cynthia Ross Events will go above and beyond to make your dream wedding a reality. I highly recommend that you book them!
THE. BEST.EVER. Literally I would have had a mental breakdown on my wedding with her and her assistant. When my flowers did not come how they were suppose to Cynthia was there to help. I honestly could not have coped without her! BOOK HER!
I would not have been able to get through my wedding day without Cindy and her amazing team! She is cool, calm and collected. Her organization and positive energy made my wedding day that much more special! She was my ROCK! I cannot imagine my wedding without her. She is a ROCKSTAR!
Cindy is a godsend! In preparing and planning my wedding, I had read a few articles that suggested that a coordinator is an expense brides should consider skipping - but having now been through the process, my first piece of advice to brides to be is HIRE A COORDINATOR. My second is, MAKE SURE IT'S CINDY. My husband and I were lucky to have her as a day-of coordinator, and she took care of every single detail. Everything went off without a hitch, every vendor was on time, nothing was forgotten, and I literally had nothing to worry about the day of the wedding, all thanks to Cindy and her wonderful team. She and her sweet assistant even DIY'd the backdrop for our photobooth. Beyond being professional to an exemplary extent, Cindy and her assistant were also so friendly and at ease - even in moments of my own self-created confusion - that I could fully relax and enjoy the entire day. I don't know what we would have done without her!
Cindy was the best thing to ever happened to me that night. As soon as she arrived she started to get things ready for me that I didn't even think to do. When I was on my way to the venue I remembered i forgot so much stuff and Cindy already had it. She really put my mind at ease. After my ceremony some of my beading came off and Cindy started sewing right away!!! Towards the end of the night my bustle broke from all the dancing and everyone stepping on my dress and she started pinning it up and you couldn't even tell it broke. At the end of the night she made sure I got all my stuff back and packed it up neatly. She really made sure I enjoyed my night and didn't think of anything that needed to be done cause she already had it handled. I'm so happy I had Cindy around.
Cindy was the day-of coordinator for my wedding in NYC and she was truly phenomenal. It was so nice having someone there making sure everything ran smoothly and helping me get from the hotel to photos to the venue on time. Cindy was funny, pleasant and very easygoing, everyone enjoyed having her with us for the day and she made me feel much better when there were a few minor hiccups because she made sure they were instantly resolved. I highly recommend having Cindy as a day of coordinator and can't imagine how we would have managed without her!
Cynthia is literally the ultimate best wedding planner in the area. Without her I don't know what I would have done. I was literally a guest at my wedding! Once we finalized my entire wedding timeline I knew confidently I was in great hands. All of my wedding day nerves and jitters were gone. I'm so happy that I found Cindy and I will be recommending her to everyone I know getting married!
Cindy Ross is professional, extremely thorough, patient and organized. She is able to thoughtfully recommend any wedding vendor and has great relationships with many. Cindy also has experience in many different venues through out New York City. I used Cindy's service for the rehearsal dinner and day of, but contacted her constantly during my wedding planning period and she responded within hours for each and every questions. She was patient yet organized during the wedding day and did an unbelievable job organizing my family and my husband's family - NO EASY TASK. We were married at a cathedral in Manhattan that had a lot of rules and restrictions and Cindy navigated everything perfectly. Cindy and her team ensured the entire event went off without a hitch and I could not have been more impressed. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
Hiring Cindy was one of the best decisions we could have made. Cindy and her team came on board about a month before the wedding and were able to take a bunch of details off of our plate. On our wedding day she was confident and calming and made sure everything came together. She is a pleasure to work with!
Cindy was my day of coordinator and I can't imagine getting through the day with out her. She was also my cousin's coordinator 2 years prior and we are both lucky to have had her with us!!! Throughout the process she was always available to answer questions and leading up to the day I met with her and she helped me get organized managed all the details and contacted the vendors. On the day she kept us on time which is no easy task for my family ! She was also fantastic at the rehearsal. I was at ease having her with us on the day. She is so sweet and kind while getting the job done and keeping everyone in line... a consumate professional. She instantly feels like family which is important. My mom and my aunt were comfortable with her and she helped them get ready so they could get me ready. She even pitched in getting our favors to the venue the day of ( which we were supposed to have done the day before!). I highly recommend her. I can't imagine a better experience and I seldom have this level of satisfaction. Thank you Cindy. You're the best !!
I got married on 4/1/16 at the Central Park Boathouse. I thought that I didn't need a wedding planner but was convinced to get someone for the day of. Boy was I wrong! From the moment I met Cindy I could tell that she made my vision her own. Cindy was very concerned with getting to know me which I believe is why she knew what I wanted. I honestly felt like we had been friends for years by the time the wedding weekend came around. She was unbelievable in last minute preparations and details that I did not even think of myself. When I was overwhelmed at the end, Cindy made sure to ease my worries and reach out to all of the vendors for park permits and details. The wedding flawless and it absolutely would not have been but for Cindy and Celine. They may actually be magicians - when my husband forgot the escort cards, they managed to get those from one part of NYC, get 12 dozen cupcakes from another part of NYC, and carry all of the bridesmaids things throughout Central Park for pictures. There are not enough thank yous in the world for Cindy and her team. Sure, you could plan a wedding on your own, but why would you when Cindy is a professional who can make your dreams come true?!
I got married on 4/30 at the New York Athletic Club and I hired Cindy of Cynthia Ross Events for the big day. It was truly the best decision ever. She was there for my husband and me from the start. From initial meeting, she had me at ease knowing that I was in good hands. She built the most organized and precise timeline that I can honestly say we stuck to and even had a little extra time to spare. She was SO organized with my vendors, collected gifts, handed out tips, dealt with guest (and family) issues, kept the bridal parties moving and worked great with my photographer/videographer as they traveled throughout the city together. She was all around the most stable part of the wedding day and I leaned on her more than I could have expected!
We ran into a few bumps during the day that I wouldn't have gotten through without Cindy. Specifically, my mom forgetting my husband’s ring for the ceremony. Looking back now, it was truly hilarious, but mostly because Cindy and her assistant Celinda made sure the problem was handled before I was even aware of the mishap. Celinda even SPED back to the hotel to access my mom’s safe and get the rings back to the church before the ceremony was over. I also heard from one of my girlfriends that she sewed her ripped dress at the church while the whole ring fiasco was going on! ALSO, my husband and I each had wardrobe issues, he lost a button, and I stepped through the lining of my dress. She fixed everything before any of the guest even noticed. She is a pro multi tasker. Even as the days pass from my wedding, I am hearing from guests how fabulous she was. A few have already asked for her contact details to pass on. I will be recommending her to everyone I know looking for a day-of-coordinator. I will miss working with her.
Cindy and Iris were both very personable and kind with our family members during the day of the wedding. They graciously provided support and kept things running on the timeline Cindy helped set-up for us. Her organization and ability to look forward and anticipate things is commendable, and they always kept a smile throughout the day. Our family members were glad to have them around and I for sure was glad not to stress out on the day of the wedding which was the most important thing to me. She kept all of vendors on their timelines and helped with any communication between groups. Thank you so much for your kindness and presence.
My groom and I were so unbelievably happy with Cynthia and her team. My husband and I really couldn't have thought of a better team to help us celebrate our day. Cynthia and team were professional, timely and personable. I don't think at any point of the day I felt nervous about our day because we had Cynthia Ross Events by our side. The day was magical ! If you get the opportunity to book with them, JUMP ON IT!
Cynthia and Vivian were absolutely amazing. I wouldn't have had my dream wedding without Cynthia with out her for my day of. She was there for me every step of the way and was absolutely amazing at making sure the wedding flowed beautifully and we got to fit all the important parts of the wedding and rearranged the schedule accordingly on the spot. She not only was there to make sure everything flowed nicely, she was there emotionally and really gave her personal touch. We enjoyed every moment we had working with her, she is a true professional !
Without question - book Cindy. I've been in 9 weddings and interacted with many wedding coordinators, she is above and beyond the best. I met Cindy at a friend's wedding a few years ago and I was so impressed that as soon as I got engaged I reached out to her. From the start she proved to be responsive and organized, and she asked the right questions to come up with a great day of plan. She handled about a thousand details, allowing me to just enjoy the day. She directed the vendors, kept up the timeline, dropped off our presents, communicated between the bridal and grooms suite, helped me and the bridesmaids get dressed, provided a sewing kit to fix my mother in law's dress, calmed and organized our families during picture time, set up our favors, distributed our tip envelopes, and many other things I'm forgetting. Cindy is so fantastic that when I realized that my "something blue" was missing, she hoped in a cab and went to the store to get a replacement. She saved the day and I can't thank her enough for both 1) running to the store and 2) jumping into action to make us all feel like everything was under control. As a bride, you're spending a tremendous amount of money to have your perfect day. For a very small amount of money, Cindy makes sure that it all goes according to that plan. She helped make our day everything we had dreamed of. Brides, if you're reading this - HIRE HER! Cindy, if you're reading this - THANK YOU!
Cindy was am amazing coordinator and id recommend her 100%!! She saved the day and i wouldve been a wreck without her! She was on time, so detail oriented and sooo helpful to me and everyone in the bridal party! After meeting with her the first time we knew we had to use her! The meeting just before the wedding was very thorough and she created a detailed timeline that my reception-hall girl was so impressed by! Cindy was so easy to contact (since we booked her) with any questions or concerns and she quickly responded. You have to use her if you want to be at ease on your weddig day and the comfort of knowing someone super knowledgable and efficient is there to take care of any issues and help the day run smoothly! Thank you sooo much!
I contacted Cindy about a month before the wedding as a stressed and overwhelmed bride. She was absolutely fantastic and helped me SO much — from setting a timeline for the big day, to confirming things with my vendors, to helping iron out details and answering my fifty thousand questions, she was a calm and reassuring presence in the days and weeks leading up to the wedding. Then on the big day, she was absolutely invaluable and helped everything go smoothly. Things wouldn't have come together the way they did without her. Very highly recommended!
Cindy from Cynthia Ross events is wonderful. I got married at the inn at New Hyde Park. They told me they had a event planner and i didnt need to pay for an event planner. I decided to stick with Cindy because someone recommended her. She is extremely knowledgeable in event planning. She asked me questions about things i didnt even think of. She is professional, courteous, patient, and affordable. My day went smoothly because of Cindy. She was one of my favorite vendors. Would without a doubt recommend her. Money well spent.
I must say, without Cindy as my wedding planner on my wedding day, I have no idea how my wedding would have turned out. Cindy was so helpful and was a phone call away at all times. If there was anything I needed help with, she was there. At our meetings, she thought of things in my wedding that I completely missed. If I didn't think of it, she did. She was also very kind and affordable. I will 100 percent recommend Cindy of Cynthia Ross Affairs for any of your wedding planning necessities. Dillon and I (Leesha) couldn't thank her enough. At the end of the day, she was sure to pack up all of our things. I really had not a worry on my day all because of her!! Thank You Cindy! XOXOX
Cynthia was extremely nice and responsive in the months leading up to my wedding. I used her for my day-of coordinator and am so happy I did. We had a call before the wedding to go through logistics and details. Cynthia is so organized and she provided some great suggestions. On the day of the wedding, she and her assistant were amazing. They made sure that everything was the way I had planned it and I felt so relieved to not have to think about details at all. She figured out how to bustle my complicated whirl of skirts, was ready for me with my dress change and was just always on top of things. My bridesmaids all raved about how amazing Cynthia was. Highly recommended. Cynthia is professional, great at her job, and a pleasure to work with.
Cindy and her team (Iris and Celinda) were phenomenal!! I used their services for the day of the wedding. Cindy went out of her way to provide the best service possible. She was available via any mode of communication and was very fast with her responses. She answered all of my questions along the way and gave me her own suggestions. She and her team are very very talented and they noticed details where one would miss them if not careful. I had an amazing wedding day! Cindy was booked for my day but Iris and Celinda were just as awesome. Cindy's work ethic is amazing because after her afternoon commitment she came by to help out in whichever way she could! I was able to enjoy the whole event with my new husband and not worry about anything but dancing, enjoying my company, and eating our delicious dinner and cake. Thank you Cindy, Iris, and Celinda! If I could go back in time, I would pick you guys again, hands down! You guys made my day so much fun and memorable. Thanks!
My advice to those looking for a planner... Don't stress yourselves with the search and go with Cynthia Ross Affairs.
