Diana Marie Events

could've asked for. She is responsive, flexible, and definitely a genuine kind woman. You can tell, even just through email, that she loves what she does, and cares for her bride's too. I am so grateful for this wonderful woman and her amazing service! Shootout to Diana Marie Events for giving me the most PERFECT bridal bouquet!!

g, so didn't need to go through all the vendor meet and greet - just hired here immediately! She is a godsend, as well as her team, in getting us through the planning process. Every step of the way, she was there when we needed her, whether just a phone call, text or Email away. I didn't realize all that goes into planning a wedding (SO stressful!), but she kept us on track, kept us informed, and most importantly kept us within our budget. The day of, her and her team (thank you April and Kenzie!) were so much fun and professional! I learned afterwards that a couple of issues came up, and DME took care of everything for us! I don't think we would have had so much fun and enjoyed ourselves, getting to spend the day with our family and friends, without Diana and her team! Oh, and we got our flowers and linens from them as well! She delivered on the centerpieces I had been dreaming of since I was little, and has the most amazing selection of linens to choose from! I did price-check a few other vendors before signing with them, and her floral pricing can't be beat, and her linens rentals' pricing is comparable to others/lower to others! Don't get discouraged with wedding pricing - it is expensive, especially if you are like us (champagne taste on beer budget) - Diana will keep you in your budget, recommend others as well, and won't try to gauge you!

ations and linens, we hired them for those services as well! I was an absolute mess coming into the planning stages - I had no idea where to look or even where to start (budget!) With Diana, she not only took a lot of stress and details off our hands while we were still involved, but she kept us on track (we tend to get distracted very easily.) I was the MOH for my bestie last year, and helping her with her plans didn't go to plan (she then hired Diana, which is why I went directly to her for our wedding!) With Diana Marie Events, you're not only getting a professional who knows the business, but you're getting a friend, a cheerleader, a couples therapist, a FAIRY GODMOTHER! I wanted beautiful floral work for our decor as well, but didn't want to spend over-the-top funds - Diana designed amazing pieces all within our desired budget (when I first went to other florists to get price quotes, I was blown away by the fact that they were charging thousands more than what Diana did; I also loved that she didn't try to haggle with us, try to upsell us on anything - she knew my vision and brought it to life beautfully.) I can't thank Diana, Shana and April enough for being there for us throughout everything all the way to the end of our magical and beautiful wedding day!

ro photographer, Mom did our cake and simple flowers, sister did our hair/makeup, hubby made our invitations/paper goods, etc.) Having most of our wedding vendors taken care of by family and friends, I needed someone to help tie everything together, manage us all on our wedding day, and help around. I had been to one of my besties weddings in Tampa where she had Diana Marie Events as their coordinator, so I contacted her. Was thrilled they had our wedding day availablle, and immediately signed them for our wedding. Even though we had most of our vendors taken care of, Diana and Patricia guided us through every little detail, suggested our remaining vendors for other small details, and made sure our day was picture perfect and amazing! We even got our table linens and miscellaneous rentals from them! Thank you to the DME team for taking amazing care of us and making sure that my wedding day was flawless!

on the list for us to tackle ourselves. I can't remember how many phone calls and emails I exchanged with how many planners in the area - I was so frustrated that it came down to my cousin recommending Diana and her company. I took her word and contacted Diana, and from there didn't look back! I knew right away during our Skype meeting that she was my planner! She made me feel so at ease, was very patient with me, and is a night owl like myself so late-night chats and Emails were a huge plus! All our vendors came from her recommendations, and every single one of them were amazing as well! I am very simple when it comes to flowers, and we didn't want anything large or grand, so that was a point that got her to take us on for those services as well. We also booked Diana Marie Events for our linens and other rentals, so having one vendor for 3 different services was awesome. Plus, she kept everything on her end within our budget, and also managed to keep us below our budget in the end! Day of was nothing short of perfection. We were both stress-free and calm, and compared to other stories that we've heard, we actually got to enjoy our wedding! That was in HUGE part to Diana and her staff! Her timeline was flawless, she got in all the activities that we wanted, and managed to keep us on track with our photographer as well. When you can walk away at the end of the night actually having eaten your meal you paid for, got to take MORE photos than expected, and get to dance the night away with family and friends, then you know you had a blast! We love Diana Marie Events, and recommend them without any reservation!

So to celebrate our 5-year anniversary we decided to renew our vows on the beach and share this celebration this time with our family and closest friends. We had a beautiful, amazing and wonderful vow renewal ceremony, all thanks to Diana and her staff! We had a decent budget but didn't want to spend anything extra or frivolous that wasn't necessary, and Diana understood that. All our vendors came from her recommendations (venue, cake, etc.), and we loved all of them! We also signed up with DME for our table linens and flowers and centerpieces, and Diana brought our vision to life! We can't thank them enough as their creations were more than we expected at an incredible rate (compared to others)! Again, they didn't try to gauge us, and I appreciated that a great deal. Diana and her staff are amazing planners that know what they are doing! We recommend them to everyone without any hesitation!

o have to pay an arm and a leg for our flowers as we weren't doing anything big (just our vows and going out afterwards for a celebration meal), but I also didn't want them to be just ordinary and small. I shopped around, and even thought about just ordering the flowers from a wholesale site and creating them myself! My husband reminded me how beautiful his cousin's wedding decorations and flowers were last year, so I contacted her and got her florist's information - Diana Marie Events! When I first spoke with Diana, I felt great about everything! I took a look at her work and reviews, and felt at ease with her. Not only did she create our bouquets and boutonnieres at a really incredible price (3 bouquets in total and 2 boutonnieres in total), but they were so much more beautiful than I could have ever imagined (I loved them more than my wedding bouquets and flowers!) I can't thank Diana enough for her talent and beautiful work! I definitely recommend Diana Marie Events for your flowers and decor!

nd! I can't thank Diana, April and Steffany enough for everything that they did - they took all the stress away from me, and even put up with my random antics during the late hours when "brilliance" came to my mind. Initially we hired them for partial planning with the understanding between my now-husband and I that we would be very active and work together - didn't quite work out that way. So many details kept coming up, that finally we caved in and increased our budget a little more to encompass hiring Diana and her team for complete planning. We also attending a wedding of one of my co-workers that Diana did the flowers and linens for, and I was blown away, so we hired her to do our design as well! She didn't try to upsell us as we had a strict budget for this area, she recommended what was best without our budget, and she made everything so beautiful with her designs that were perfect and brilliant for our peacock wedding! Diana Marie Events was probably the single-best investment for our wedding, as she kept us in-line, stress-free, and allowed us to have fun! And it was such a blast to hire a vendor that was there throughout it all, and be able to have laughs, drinks and become great friends with! Thank you Diana!

ant, but we still wanted something elegant and lovely to share with the family and friends that love and accept us. Hubby knows Diana (cousins), so it was a no-brainer to contact her first after seeing that she is an LGBT supporter. When we met with her, I immediately fell in love with her (hubby said duh, told you!) Diana, from the bottom of our hearts, MAHAL KITA! We love you, and wouldn't have been able to keep it together without you (and April and Karla!) Diana Marie Events not only supports our lifestyle, but treated us and our wedding like any other equal wedding / client. Saw her work as well, and knew that she was the one to create our flowers and centerpieces. Loved the work they did for our deep purple/fall wedding - SOOO incredibly beautiful and beyond what I dreamed of! If you're looking for planners and/or florists/designers that are sweet, professional, AWESOME and budget-friendly, contact Diana Marie Events!

etting situated in our new jobs and acclimating to the new location was stressful enough. We knew we didn't want anything big or elaborate - just our closest 20 friends to celebrate with us. But I knew we still needed help to get our vow renewal done. I did some research and found Diana Marie Events. She was awesome enough to do a Skype consultation with me as we were still traveling back and forth from Cailfornia - when we met online and spoke, I knew right away that I wanted to sign with her! She understood our needs and desires for something simple and that it would take place at my parents' property along the beach. Just needed the remaining details and vendors within our budget, and she took care of everything for us! Even went with her to create our bouquet and boutonniere and simple candle centerpieces! I can't thank Diana enough for getting everything taken care for us in less than a month!

ndors, all the details became extremely overwhelming. None of our families are native to Florida, so we were on our own with the planning. We originally signed on with Diana Marie Events just for their planning and coordination services, and I can't thank Diana and Lara enough for their patience with me! I didn't want to deal with all the details, so it must have been like pulling teeth working with me, but they managed to get me relaxed and actually enjoy planning our wedding. When it came to flowers, I didn't want them. I'm not really girly-girl in the sense of having flowers, and when I did some price research on the florist on the preferred vendors list of Morikami, I was blown away on how expensive they were. Then when Diana posted one of our beautiful bouquets on her facebook page, I knew that was what I wanted and she was able to do all our flowers and centerpieces at an extremely affordable rate! Once we signed with her for their floral design services, I went ahead and got some specialty linens from them as well! Diana Marie Events is definitely a one-stop shop for planning, florist and linen and decoration rentals, and I can't thank them enough!

out. I first met with April, and we clicked immediately! Then when we talked about them doing our flowers, linens and decor, Diana came in and I knew that I had to sign them immediately for planning help and our flowers. I can't thank April and Diana enough! They were there with me and my husband throughout the entire process, recommending all of our vendors, keeping mys tress levels down, keeping our mothers at bay, and most importantly they made the process so much fun for us! It wasn't that we had a limited budget, but we didn't want to go over our average budget either, and Diana gave us such an incredible deal on all of their services! My bouquet was beyond what I imagined, the rest of our flowers and centerpieces blew us all away, she had the linens that I wanted, and they recommended all of our vendors that we loved! Diana Marie Events is just wonderful!

also didn't have a large one either. I wanted all of our flowers to be big and beautiful and lush, and Diana and her staff was able to accommodate what I had always dreamed of within our budget. I loved her immediately after meeting with her and discussing our plans - always go with your gut instinct and mine told me to sign up with her right then and there. Diana Marie Events also does table linens, and she has a wide array to offer. I had decided on their Dusty Rose Satin Wave tablecloths with champagne gold lamour napkins after her suggestions, and everything was BEAUTIFUL and perfect together! Diana never tried to persuade to add anything that wasn't necessary or within our budget, and I appreciated that immensely. Then when our wedding date fast approached, I felt that things weren't completed and turned to Diana and hired her and April for their Month of package. BEST DECISION EVER as they came in, handled everything and helped us wrap up everything. I can promise you, you will not be disappointed with Diana Marie Events! They are worth it!

ness), and initially didn't have it in the budget, but once we met with Diana after being dragged by our Moms after how many meetings, we knew we had to hire her there on the spot! We live in Orlando but had our wedding in Miami (as many of our family and friends live there), and as she has offices in both cities made it even better! She was always on point and totally professional, organized and very positive and upbeat with us, even though we would contact her at all hours! When she put together our flowers and centerpieces design as well, we booked her for those services, and even went through her for our sequins linens! Thank you so much to Diana, April and Mandy!

iage. We not only fell in love with her, but knew right away that she was our planner. Things started off slow as we weren't sure when Florida was going to get with the times and make gay marriages legal, but come October we couldn't wait anymore. We decided just to have a big celebration with our family and friends, and would wait until Florida got with the program so that we could be legally married (damnit January 6, 2015!) Diana was very adamant about making sure all of our vendors supported gay marriages, and we were extremely pleased with all of them who came recommended by her! She also created our beautiful boutonnieres, kissing balls, and centerpieces, and the girl in me had to have her Australian Puff linens! I'm a total cry baby, so I proceeded to do so when she presented me with my boutonniere, and again when I saw my own mother cry when she saw the centerpieces! If you are gay/lesbian looking for wedding help with planning or creating your wedding flowers and centerpieces/linens, make sure to contact the gals at Diana Marie Events! They will take care of you, and most importantly, accept you for you!

with her gorgeous silver bling candelabras, and was set on having her do only our centerpieces and bouquets, etc. But when I met with her, we immediately "clicked" and I knew after talking with her for a few hours that we would need all the planning and coordination help to get us through to our wedding day. We hired Diana Marie Events for complete planning assistance, for our decor/bouquets, and for our GORGEOUS sequins linens, and they surpassed all of our expectations! I had to have my makeup redone when I walked into our ballroom and started crying because everything was just AMAZING and beautiful! Diana, April and Chelsea made sure to take care of us throughout the planning process, always an Email, text or phone call away. And the day of, everything was PERFECTION, and we truly got to enjoy our day without any worries! Bryon and I recommend DIANA MARIE EVENTS! They will not disappoint!

then it wasn't. I was always back and forth with ideas, themes, and what we wanted vs. what we could afford vs. what our moms wanted. I know my then-fiance was trying his hardest to be patient and understanding, but he finally put his foot down and set-up several meetings with planners for us. And during the first few meetings I was very resistant, until our meeting with Diana and Amanda. That meeting, everything just clicked, and since then I haven't regretted letting go and allowing them to take control! THANK YOU, DIANA, AMANDA AND APRIL!! You three made everything so simple, so easy, and allowed us all to enjoy our wedding! Not only did they help with the planning, but after seeing Diana's work at a friends wedding that she did the decorations and linens for, I knew that we had to hire them too for that! They worked tirelessly to bring everything together, made the planning process so much fun, and made our wedding a dream come true! xoxo

her meeting with her planner (Diana), and after hearing them go over the details with her, I started to have a panic attack! I didn't have this done, I didn't know I needed to think about that, etc., etc., etc. I met with Diana and April separately a few days later and booked them immediately! From that day forth I felt this weight just come right off of me, and I felt so much better! They took care of everything, always reminding me about details, went to my meetings, and even helped with our DIY projects! The day of our wedding was FLAWLESS - if there were issues I didn't know about it. Diana kept reminding me to focus on the wedding, my husband, and our celebration with our friends, and I did just that! Without her, I don't think I would have been as calm as I was and was able to enjoy it!

naging our budget, finding vendors, etc. I had met Diana during one of our company's bridal shows, and we hit it off immediately. She was not thrwarted by our budget constraints, and I was amazed at what she could do with what we could afford ($9K for 100 people!) Every vendor that we booked either came from her referral or she vouched for them after we contacted them. She knew how to handle my nerves, and stayed up with me during countless nights to skype about plans and details. We even used her services for our flowers, and I am so glad that we did as her designs were perfectly what I envisioned - she delivered more than what we expected within our price range (which is more than what all the other florists quoted us/turned us away because of our budget.) Our wedding day was PERFECT - she and April and Shelly were our guardian angels, our directors, our friends... They were everything to us and I am so glad that we hired them!

us. As I got into the planning and compiled a short list of questions and details for our venue's coordinator, I contacted the coordinator and asked if they took care of those details for us (timeline, deliveries, set-up, etc.), some of the important items on the list were not part of her job description. Then my sister reminded me of Diana, who she had used for her wedding (which was just so amazing!), and I wasn't sure as we were having a destination wedding. But Diana is available for travel, and even with us paying for her flight/hotel and her fee, it was still cheaper than the planners locally. And I got to know Diana during my sister's wedding and we got along amazingly, so it was a no brainer. Once we brought her on board, I felt a weight lifted from my shoulders and knew that my wedding would be amazing as well. Diana's patience, knowledge, expertise, and personality made everything perfect, and I mean PERFECT! She not only is a planner, but an event designer as well! When I had shown her what we were going for with our centerpieces and other decorations from the florist, she took my vision and actually made it better than I ever imagined, and coordinated the changes to the florist. Every detail, from us getting ready to our ceremony through reception until the very end was impeccable. Thank you so much D! If we do decide to renew our vows every few years, you will be called!

d having fleeting moments. Diana and her staff, made sure things ran smoothly and effectively for the time we were allowed, as well as made sure special details and things my husband and I wanted to do during our day happened. We were able to sneak away for a personal moment, take pictures in our photobooth, and acutally eat and enjoy our food. I felt so at ease knowing Diana and her staff were in control! Best decision I have ever made.

s I wrong, Diana Marie and her staff were nothing but amazing on our big day. She made sure all the details were well taken care of, even when I got a stain on my dress she managed to keep me calm. I was beyond pleased with the work and service I received, and would not think twice to recommend her and her staff. If you are looking for someone to run your event flawlessly, this is the coordinator to go for :-)

t only came high recommended but someone that I would be able to get along with. My brother (who used them for his son's Bar Mitzvah) AND a few of my sorority sisters recommended Diana and Jennifer at Diana Marie Events, so they were one of the planners I met with. I had met with several other planners as well, and I didn't really mesh well with them, even though from their reviews and my research they were highly recommended. When I sat down and met with Diana and Jennifer, right away I clicked, especially with Diana. We ended up not only talking and going over my wedding plans during our initial consultation, but we continued to talk for more than 3 hours - that's how well we got along from the beginning. I signed with her that day, and Diana and her girls were an absolute blast and amazing to work with. My husband was even blown away by her designs and decorations at a friend's wedding that we went to, and we signed with them as well for design/decor and our linens (I LOVE their lace linens!) - they did our romantic and chic garden decor, and it was so much more beautiful than I expected! I know that I was a little distant at times, but Diana pulled through and made choices when I left it up to her, and I am glad for her decisions with planning and decor. She not only blew my mind away, but my husband's AND my mother-in-law (who is THE most difficult and picky person!) Diana was there with me from the beginning, and was very efficient and quick to respond to any questions - most of our communication was via Email which is what I prefer. She referred all of our vendors and we loved all of them. Without Diana, Jennifer or Erika, our wedding wouldn't have been the perfect day that it was!

Diana and Jennifer, we knew right away that they were the planners for us. I wanted a huge princess wedding all the way, and my DH wanted a simple garden wedding. Diana was able to combine our two wants into one FABULOUS wedding that we both loved! Not only did we hire Diana for her total planning package, but we utilized her design services for our complete wedding decorations, from ceremony huppah to linens to our FABULOUS and beautiful blingy centerpieces. If I could do it over again, I wouldn't change a single detail. They recommended every single one of our vendors, and we were glad we selected ones that she referred. She took care of us from the very beginning, and are blessed that we became fast friends. I recommend Diana Marie Events to anyone!
