Edna took the time to understand my hope and vision. This allowed her to help shape my wedding and found the perfect vendors to bring my dream to life. Wish I could hire Edna for a...

Kasie and the EFD Creative Team are truly the BEST! Due to Covid, we had the pleasure of hiring Kasie for a micro-wedding in 2020 and a vow renewal/reception in 2021. I don't th...
ink we could have survived without her! In a nutshell, she is a consummate professional with a positive vibe. She uses this positivity to manage difficult situations (and relatives). Her planning calls kept us on track and helped us think of things we would not have covered (even after reading wedding blogs and wedding planning books). Her "day of services" helped us really enjoy the event. If you hire Kasie, you will be getting a wedding planner, organizational guru and unofficial therapist to help you survive wedding madness! She is AMAZING!
We could not have gotten through our wedding planning process without EFD. The best decision my husband and I have ever made in our lives (besides choosing to get married) was hiri...
ng EFD to plan our wedding! Kasie and Edna are one in a million. They are caring, connected, passionate, patient, punctual, professional, helpful, organized, thorough, excited, inspiring, and wonderful. We had to postpone our wedding in 2020 due to the pandemic and it was the hardest year of our life. Kasie was a shining light during that time and took care of communicating with all of our vendors, and our dream day looked almost exactly the same as we had planned, just 14 months later. Kasie became like family to us over the 3 years we planned our wedding together and we are so thankful!
Kasie was absolutely AMAZING! She was so detailed and organized and it allowed me, as the bride, to have fun and enjoy the wedding planning process! She was proactive, responsive a...
nd in touch with every vendor - and she was truly superwoman when it came to the big day. The wedding weekend was so incredibly smooth and it was the best day of my life. I can’t imagine not having Kasie. I’d recommend her time and time again!
Kasie was simply the BEST! We had some bumps in the road with a change of venue due to a construction project, to a change in date due to Covid. Through it all, Kasie was well or...
ganized, incredibly knowledgeable, very flexible, easy to reach, and always cheerful. As the mother of the bride, I thought I would have so much more to be concerned about. But Kasie made it a breeze!
We found EFD through a Facebook recommendation and could not have been happier! Planning our Massachusetts wedding from Austin, TX was tricky but knowing that Kasie was going to be...
there on the day to ensure everything ran smoothly gave us such ease. Our wedding was planned to be on the campus of the school that we met at which was incredible but not exactly the easiest wedding venue, as they don't host weddings. Kasie joined us for a site visit and thought of SO many questions that none of us would have ever considered - we were so grateful to have her there with us. Unfortunately due to COVID we had to postpone our June 2020 wedding and ultimately made the decision to elope in Austin. I will send every New England bride I know to EFD so they can have the incredible experience of working with Kasie!
We first spoke with Kasie 60 days before the wedding day when we decided to move our daughter's wedding from a hotel to our backyard. From that first conversation through the weddi...
ng day, Kasie was energized, positive, so knowledgable about all things wedding, and has a fabulous can-do attitude. For 60+ days, and especially throughout the wedding day, we kept saying "Thank goodness for Kasie!" We enjoyed every minute of the wedding while Kasie effortlessly coordinated and handled everything (including inevitable on-the-fly adjustments). If you are fortunate to work with Kasie, you will be thrilled!
EFD was invaluable in planning our wedding, and Kasie was such a pleasure to work with! Planning a wedding in 2020 is no small feat, and Kasie made it feel seamless. 20 minutes bef...
ore the ceremony, we found out there was an issue with our flight the next day. Kasie took over and spoke to the airline until everything was fixed. I can't say enough good things about our experience with EFD and would highly recommend them to anyone planning an event!
I can't say enough about how helpful and wonderful EFD Creative was as I was planning my wedding! Right from the beginning Kasie helped develop an ideal plan for my husband and I....
We had a January wedding and the little details to make our day special and intimate were very important to us. She helped with every piece to make sure that we knew all of our options. Our ceremony was beautiful and we can't thank EFD Creative enough for the support!
Kasie and EFD Creative are amazing! Don't plan or execute your wedding without them. Kasie had the most relevant information in the middle of the pandemic and advised us at a ver...
y early stage to get a back-up date in 2021 at our venue! If we hadn't, we really would struggled to reschedule. We ended up having a small family wedding this year (and moving the big reception to next year). Kasie was flexible with us and adjusted our agreement to assist with both days for a small increase in price! Her advice is spot-on about timing and many other details we would have never considered! Having Kasie coordinate all of the vendors on the wedding day and problem solve several sticky situations really allowed us to just enjoy the wedding! Kasie's pre-wedding calls, timelines, and to-do lists were indispensable. She is extremely friendly and a consummate professional and I cannot imagine planning or executing another wedding without her! Looking forward to working with Kasie again next year for the "sequel wedding" event.
I researched and researched and researched, and I can safely say that I hit the jackpot finding Kasie. Our wedding would not have gone as smoothly without her expertise and leader...
ship. She helped us prep a timeline over the course of a few months. Kasie was there for the rehearsal as well as our wedding day and was such a huge help. She has such an incredible personality and you could tell she truly cares about her clients. She is amazing with taking leadership (especially for ceremony planning) & has a ton of experience, I would always lean on her for her opinion. You will not regret working with Kasie, she is THE BEST.
I was constantly thinking about the little details and worried I was missing something important. Plus my Mom kept asking me the status of everything and it was getting way too ove...
rwhelming. Then I started working with Kasie. She asked me a bunch of questions that uncovered some major pieces I had not considered. She helped me get organized and clear on what I had done, and everything I had left to do. It was great! I didn't want to show up at my wedding worried about anything, and I didn't! Now I look back and think I couldn't have done it without Kasie! I highly recommend EFD Creative!
EFD was of huge support for my daughter's wedding!
I was excited to get married, but as the planning started I could see there was so much that needed to be done, and I wanted my fiancée and I to enjoy it, so I was happy when we pu...
t our trust in EFD Creative. We started the planning with Edna, who took the time to get to know our style, and then we started looking for our venue! At first we thought we would get married in Maine (where my fiancée and I are from), but once we established exactly what our vision was, we knew the right venue was in Massachusetts at Tupper Manor. We loved the vibe and working with Edna on the vision was key to pulling everything together. Next came Kasie who worked with us on every detail. There was so much to cover and Kasie had our back. There was a million details, things we never even considered, but Kasie was on top of everything. Thank you both for making our pre-planning experience and wedding perfect!
We started working with EFD Creative about a month before our wedding date and instantly felt more relaxed and confident with our plans. Kasie helped us create a timeline that cove...
red every moment of the day. It was so detailed and clear that when we shared it with all of our vendors/wedding party, they immediately understood when and where everything would occur. Working with EFD Creative was so easy and actually really fun (even during a stressful time - one month before the big day). We highly recommend!
We worked with Kasie from EFD Creative - she was our day of coordinator, but man is she SO much more than that! Kasie is the most incredible person to have on your side while you p...
lan a wedding! Not only will she answer any questions you have, but she goes above and beyond to make sure that your day is perfect. Unlike other day of coordinators who jump in for literally just the day, Kasie was incredibly hands on and involved (as much or as little as we wanted her to be) from the moment we started working together. She was by far the best decision we made for our wedding - aside from actually getting married! :) Kasie kept us sane, put us in touch with the right people, met with us a few times, hopped on late-night phone calls after we were done with our work day to talk through timing, worked with our vendors leading up to the big day to ensure they knew where they should be and when/had the final timeline, etc. I could go on and on about how amazing our experience was, but at the end of the day all I have to say is WOW! You really cannot go wrong with EFD Creative! Pick Kasie and you will not be sorry - the worst part is saying goodbye at the end because you feel like you have a new best friend that has to move on to help other people create their dream wedding!
A big thank you to EFD Creative for making our family event so very special! Finding the venue was the hardest part because we needed to have just the right location. The Boston Ha...
rbor Hotel was the backdrop and it was perfect! All the vendors EFD brought in were excellent. We didn’t have to worry about a thing…not one! Edna created a very special intimate atmosphere for the 70 person event, from the lighting, florals to the smallest of details throughout. We now have the most beautiful memories we will always cherish thanks to this team!
My sister's wedding this past summer went off without a hitch thanks to Edna, Kacie and the team at EFD Creative. From start to finish, the wedding party and guests had an amazing ...
time celebrating and not worrying about details! Vendors were top notch and total crowd pleasers, the band was definitely a highlight--everyone was dancing all night! Thank you so much to EFD Creative for making this an event of a lifetime.
This is a review from the groom’s perspective: Edna and Kasie are excellent, the wedding definitely would not have happened without them. Initially, we had some incongruent ideas f...
or our wedding, but they were the ones who provided a lot of the concrete contact and reviews that solidified our final product. The wedding management part was great and, we would have a continuing conversation throughout the process so that we can update each other, tell each other about other evolving thoughts for the wedding and also the plans of actions to tackle each new problem.
I think the best thing is that they are accommodating and understanding of concerns that not only the bride has, but also the ones the grooms might occasionally have (which is not many). Very hardworking during the wedding and very adaptive too to my requests for an impromptu speech.
In conclusion, good job Edna and Kasie! Thanks!
We absolutely loved working with Edna and Kasie to create the wedding of our dreams! From the beginning, everything was laid out clearly so we could not go wrong in terms of our bu...
dget. Thanks to Edna, we were successful in finding the perfect venue that had everything we wanted and that fit into our budget. From there, everything took off seamlessly! From the flowers, the rentals for the tables, the invitations, and the cake, all vendors were selected to match the exact vision we desired. Edna was essential for the helping to select the key elements of the design that made everything coordinate and match perfectly. When it was time for the practicalities of the wedding, Kasie jumped in to make the entire process stress free. Her amazing communication with myself and all the vendors made my life so much easier! She was extremely specific and punctual in all of the details regarding the timeline and the organization of the entire event. Her positive attitude throughout the process made this all helped to make this a relaxed and enjoyable process. We feel so lucky to have worked with both EFD Creative and we truly could have not have had the wedding of our dreams without the amazing team of Edna and Kasie!
Kasie and Edna made the process so enjoyable! After getting a feel for our vision, they helped us build an incredible team of vendors. Their connections and knowledge of the indust...
ry made the process so easy and avoided our need for research and endless interviews. You'd never know they had other clients, as they are attentive and always available to make you feel like the priority! Especially over the course of a long engagement, planning out of state, I was so grateful for how organized and detail oriented they were, as they remembered details that even the myself, the bride forgot over time!
The wedding weekend was a DREAM and they made us feel so special. A huge thanks to Edna and Kasie, we have their creativity and support to thank for our most wonderful memories!
Edna and Kasie are wonderful wedding planners! Edna is great at designing and Kasie is just perfect with handling the logistics aspect of the planning. My husband and I completely ...
relied on them to do all the communications with the vendors and all we needed to do on our wedding day was to show up! Two examples that show how great they are - 1) After signing contracts with many of our vendors, my husband and I needed to change our wedding date due to a special circumstance. Edna and Kasie were able to reach out to the vendors and sort everything out THAT DAY with no issue at all. 2) We all hired Edna and Kasie for our rehearsal dinner featuring a Chinese tea ceremony. It was pouring that day, and Edna and Kasie did all the hard work of waiting in the rain for the guests and handing out umbrellas to them. Could not have planned our wedding without them!!
Working with Kasie and EFD creative was easily one of the best decisions my wife and I made through our wedding planning process. Kasie was there for us whenever we needed her and ...
gave us great time lines for when we needed to get things done on our end. When we started to get a little lost through the planning, within a day Kasie was in our inbox getting us back on track. She was extremely thorough during the planning and come the wedding day she was on top of everything. Three days prior, the ceremony location needed to be changed and once we informed her on the new location, she took care of making sure everything was set up. She also provided full weekend schedule for everyone in the wedding to make sure everything went perfectly.
I have worked numerous weddings, with numerous planners, as part of my job, and picking a planner was extremely important to me. They set the tone for the whole process, from firs...
t steps to day of. EFD is at the top of their field. From their signature plans for wedding branding (basically, making sure the event is not only cohesive, but personal to you as a couple, and leaves your friends and family knowing even more about you as a couple) to their professional yet still enthusiastic and friendly way of dealing with everyone from your family to potential vendors, they are everything my wife and I could have hoped for and more. The planning process was seamless - we got the best possible vendors locked down early, and both the overall design of the wedding and the nitty-gritty logistics were handled with grace, loving care, and hypercompetence. Go with EFD. You will not regret it.
Edna and Kasie were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. From helping us hit the ground running when we started planning, to finding us the best possible vendors, to keeping on top of all details ...
large and small throughout the whole wedding process and during the wedding itself, we could not have asked for better possible wedding planners. They are the best choice you could possibly make.
Once I got engaged the first thing I wanted was a planner!!!! I had been in many weddings and saw so many things, all the stress and decisions through my friends. So I always knew ...
when the time came I was going to get help! I looked around and decided on Kasie from EFD Creative. There was something about her that I really connected with. Besides her outgoing personality she made me feel the confidence I was looking for. I also went to all the online reviews and was impressed with what everyone said and wanted that same kind of experience.
Kasie was more than a planner, she was my power planner! She went above and beyond and always with a smile. I’m not sure how she did it but she was on top of everything. I would highly recommend Kasie of EFD Creative! Thank you Kasie!!!
I work full time and both my fiancé and I have very busy schedules, so we have little time to organize a wedding. We also had a lot of complexities with family and guests coming fr...
om all over, so when we thought about the whether or not to get a planner it was an easy decision.
I looked around and felt most comfortable with EFD Creative because of the number of years they've been in business and the positive reviews. Plus, their work was gorgeous! I learned a lot of about wedding design, which I never really thought about until Edna explained to me how to make the wedding day our own with special design touches.
Kasie was not only so kind, but she had a lot of patience with us because of all the details with our guests coming from out of town, and everyone’s specific needs. She was super-fast and responsive, which made me know this girl was on it! I knew I could count on her and it gave me comfort through the process.
I really can’t say enough good things about Kasie and Edna. On the day of the wedding, I knew it would all work out with the very prepared timeline Kasie put together and her calming ways. I was so grateful! I would definitely recommend them to any couple looking for a planner.
The two best decisions I made: Saying yes to my now husband :) and hiring EFD Creative to help me with my wedding plans.
Throughout the entire wedding planning process I felt lik...
e their number one priority, starting from the moment I first reached out, all the way past the wedding itself. I know they are a busy duo, but when I first spoke with Kasie you could tell she was genuinely excited about my wedding and my wedding only. Then I met Edna, and her sincere passion was contagious!
They cared about every detail (I really mean everything!) from decisions as big as venue selection to details as small as how I'll be getting breakfast (while I am getting ready) on the morning of my wedding. These ladies covered it all! I can honestly say that the last 14 months of planning were not only stress free but they were fun! My guests are (still) telling us this was the best wedding they've ever been to! That says it all!
I’m so thankful I hired Edna and Kasie from EFD Creative. They are the very best!!!!
I married late in life for the first time and really thought I could do it all no problem, bu...
t realized early on I couldn’t make it happen and still keep everything in my life in order. Weddings have changed so much since my sister’s wedding and I had no idea all the little nuances and details to consider. I jumped on the internet and looked at so many planners and landed on EFD Creative. I was impressed with their experience and all the beautiful weddings in their portfolio.
After talking with Edna and Kasie I knew they were the perfect match and in good hands. From Edna's design expertise to Kasie’s attention to detail and organization skills, I really could sit back and breathe a sigh of relief. Even when things got hectic and decisions needed to be made, they talked me through it and I instantly felt better.
The day was perfect thanks to Edna and Kasie!!!!!
I worked with Kasie on securing the vendors for my big day and I can't imagine doing it without her! What I loved most about working with Kasie is that she didn't just tell me to b...
ook who she thought was "good". Instead, she listened and learned about me and what I wanted. Then she connected me with vendors that she thought would be the right match based on my personality, vision and budget. Once the vendor selection was complete she helped us review contracts and negotiate pricing (particularly handy with our venue and room blocks!). It really was a fantastic experience that I would absolutely recommend to any and all future brides. Thank You, Kasie & EFD Creative!
My son and his fiancée had been engaged for a year when my husband was diagnosed with AML leukemia. He was due to face months of chemo, hospitalizations, and illness. It was import...
ant to all of us for my husband to be able to witness their wedding, which they had previously hoped to hold in Los Angeles, where they lived.
We decided to go all-out for a big, celebratory wedding at a destination venue in Massachusetts where my husband and I live. Nine weeks before the date we picked the Wychmere Harbor Resort in Harwichport, MA.
So, then what? I knew we needed an experienced wedding planner and designer. We had so much to do in only eight weeks and we wanted a wedding that was put together and didn’t look last minute. We knew Edna of EFD Creative and had been to multiple successful events by her group.
We gave Edna a call and within the first week, we were taken to the best provider of linens, tableware, chairs, etc. Edna introduced us to a talented florist, who worked with my now daughter-in-law (who had very specific ideas about what she wanted) on flowers for her and her bridesmaids, tables, a beach chuppah etc. Edna guided us to the finest printer for a rush order of invitations, plus table décor, thank you notes, gift enclosures, etc. All of these vendors were chosen by Edna with extreme sensitivity to the situation and specific vibe which the couple wished to achieve… a casual elegance with a beachy feel. We wanted something that brought together our family, the bride's Louisiana relatives and the couples' California friends - to be remembered as a special time and place.
Over the next weeks, Edna accompanied us to the bridal fittings, went to the food tastings, advised us on the venues for the night before....she was the driving force to get it all done and keep us on track!
Kasie was incredible at taking all the information and organizing everything for us so we could actually enjoy the whole process, through those hectic weeks right before the date (made so much less stressful by her organizational help and guidance).
I am weeping as I write this. There was an audible cheer from my family and friends as we walked down the aisle on the beach. My husband was so happy to be able to participate fully in his son’s wedding. My family will always have the memory of that beautiful day.
A big thank you to Edna and Kasie for helping make this wedding weekend a huge success and the memory of a lifetime!
I was so thrilled to have the guidance from Edna of EFD Creative! I had so many questions on how to budget my daughters wedding and how to select the vendors. Once my daughter got ...
engaged I reached out to EFD Creative and was happy at their quick response to my inquiry. Right away Edna gave me clarity on what I could expect realistically regarding the budget with our overall vision. Not understanding what things really cost I had a quick education on what to expect, because of this, I was able to plan a wedding that was perfect for the family and within our budget. Having EFD Creative helping us took so much pressure off the planning and I could really enjoy the wedding day! Thank you so much Edna for being part of our wedding planning!
EFD Creative helped me plan and execute a recent event. They were absolutely amazing with every single detail -- from finding the perfect vendors, to setting everything up, to even...
t itself! Not a single thing was out of place and all of my guests were totally blown away. It's a party I'll never forget! Edna and Kasie are true professionals who are the best in the biz! I'll never work with another planner -- they are my go-to gals!
We had to plan a wedding from across the country and on two months notice. EFD made a potentially stressful situation it so much easier because they were so well connected and lik...
ed in the business. Edna got very sought after people (florists, printers, DJ etc.) to drop everything for us and make our day happen at little or no extra charge. It seemed like they just wanted to do favors for her. And the wedding you wouldn't believe. Months later people are still telling me it was the best one they have ever been to.
I am a full-time nurse and student. I have little time and even less energy to take on any major projects. SO, when it was time to plan this major event, I knew I needed a planne...
r. The moment I spoke with Kasie it was clear that EFD Creative was the team for me. Within a week, we secured the venue and date! From there they helped me understand what vendors I needed based on my vision and budget. Together we came up with creative ideas that made my celebration feel truly unique and personalized. A fan favorite was the custom chocolate favors that EFD Creative sourced and designed! On the day of the event Kasie was there the entire time making sure everything went according to plan. The day was absolutely seamless and there’s just no way it would have gone that smoothly if it weren’t ladies of EFD!
I can't say enough about the EFD team -- Edna and Kasie were absolutely terrific to work with. We had a very complicated situation: a wedding on the East Coast planned by a bride ...
and groom on the West Coast with friends coming from all over the country and half the family coming to the wedding from The South. All in 8 weeks time. That is right, eight week. Edna was a superstar. She was always available for a phone call, a quick question or a big one, and she knew every vendor who is anybody in the Boston/Cape/New England area. I am a very particular person, and Edna immediately read my style and started to steer me in the direction of the vendors who best suited us. We had a Los Angeles vibe with a New Orleans flair in a Cape Cod setting. She made our whole weekend into a three-day party. She and Kasie kept on top of every vendor, attended my floral sessions with me on my very short trips to Boston from LA, and attended my tasting with me at the venue on Cape Cod. When we were down to the wire on invitations, her friendship with that vendor enabled me to get many orders in at the last minute and with her helpful input. But she never stepped on my toes -- just tried to design what she thought I would love, and to make it a reality for me. She was incredible with the rentals, which get very complicated: tablecloths, chairs, silverware, you name it. She even asked one vendor if we could borrow a small sample of the wares we had picked, so that we could match our "look" to the florals and the venue. The vendor joked that no one had ever done that before, and then said she'd be happy to let us borrow samples. It's this sort of personal touch -- and the endless amount of check-in phone calls - that I could not have planned my wedding without. It sounds really corny to say it, but EFD created a fairytale for me and for my husband. Kasie was amazing on the ground on the night of the event. My mom and sister kept commenting the next day about how well she held everything together and made it all look so easy. I now realize that's a huge part of the Wedding Planning/Even Planner's job -- to make it look like it all went off smoothly no matter what. I can't say enough about this group. I'd do another even with them in a heartbeat. I was kind of sad when it all ended, because I felt like I was in business with them. Then I realized I was just another bride!
We had the most amazing wedding day and wanted to take the time to thank Edna of EFD Creative for her support and guidance as she helped us navigate our way through the wedding pla...
nning process.
Edna was invaluable to us in selecting just the right vendors for our big day. We really had no idea what was in front of us, and with our very busy schedules we had no time to research and figure it out.
Edna helped us understand what vendors were the right match for us, as well as considering our budget and vision. She was fun to work with and really made the time to work around our hectic schedules. I live in Los Angeles and my fiancé (now Wife) lives in Boston so we loved that Edna made it so easy by just jumping on a Skype call with both of us and walked us through the steps. She is very established in the wedding industry and knows everyone, so we immediately felt at ease with this overwhelming process.
We are still riding high from our amazing day and we are so thankful we had Edna in our corner to make the day perfect! We highly recommend EFD Creative to anyone planning their wedding and want an extra special experience!
What an amazing duo this team is! Being a teacher I thought I could be detail oriented sometimes but these girls blow me out of the water. Edna’s detail to design is amazing, not o...
ne little thing goes unnoticed. Her connections to the vendors makes the planning process and day of that much more less stressful. It honestly is smooth sailing! Kasie’s abilitiy to work out the day of logistics is amazing, she puts so much thought into it. I have had more compliments from my wedding party about the day of schedule and how it made there lives just as easy. An in law has since asked me to write up a schedule for an upcoming family wedding, I definitely would not be able to do it to Kasie’s standard.
I could go on and on about how amazing Edna and Kasie are at what they do. They truly made my wedding a day I won’t ever forget.
Absolutely amazing!!! The entire staff was awesome. Taking our ideas on how we wanted the day to go and made it happens. The list of vendors they recommended were amazing and they ...
also contributed to making the day amazing. EFD Creative were so attentive and their attention to detail was so great. everything from the save the date to the invites, menus and the Timeline for the rehearsal to how the whole wedding day was planned out. Everything went to plan and was amazing. I recommend them to all my friends getting married.
Planning a wedding can be stressful but planning a destination wedding can put one over the edge. My daughter and her fiancé (now husband) live in northern Vermont while my husband...
and I live outside of Boston. We booked a venue in southwestern Vermont but were not happy with the vendors that were available in the area. We all were becoming very frustrated with the planning process causing a lot of disagreements between mother and daughter.
Mulling over the idea of hiring an event planner to save the relationship I have with my daughter, I began the search in the Boston area for one that would be willing to work with us in Vermont. EFD-Creative had some Vermont weddings within their portfolio, so the call was made. Edna, my daughter and I hit it off from the start. She was upfront, honest and informative about the process of finding Boston vendors who would make the trip north and their fees. I hired her on the spot, no questions asked. Edna literally was able to defuse the few situations that crept up between mother and daughter and I can’t thank her enough for keeping the peace between us.
Rustic Chic was my daughter's dream wedding. Edna and my daughter both have the artistic flare that brought a simple empty barn to an elegant and beautiful room that had our guests in awe when they entered the reception. The process of branding the event was amazing … from selecting colors, designing a logo to be used on invitations, menus and even custom-made cookies. Every vendor that Edna recommended was over the top.
Then there is Kasie who is a mother of the bride's dream come true. I did not have to worry about one thing on the days leading up to the wedding. She coordinated everything for us. She handled the rehearsal the night before which was a challenge of its own. She dealt with the employees at the inn, all of the vendors, the cocktail reception, and wedding reception setup. She is a ball of energy that made everyone in the wedding party feel at ease and made the day extra special for family and friends.
Edna and Kasie are an amazing team. Edna has the ability to take the bride and groom’s vision of their special day and make it come to be. Her knowledge of the wedding business is amazing and her capabilities and eye for every fine detail are endless. Kasie’s calming demeanor is exactly what is needed the day of the big event. Her ability to maintain order, work with so many vendors at one time and coordinate the wedding party is truly amazing.
As a mother of the bride, there is nothing better than hearing that “your daughter’s and son-in-law’s wedding was the best wedding that they have ever attended”. Thank you, Edna and Kasie from the bottom of the Potter’s and Roberge’s hearts.
Immediately after my engagement I knew I needed a professional wedding planner to combine my unique style and my mom's very specific taste into one wedding that both of us would lo...
ve. After meeting Edna and Kasie, we knew between their impressive portfolio and positive energy that they were the team to make it happen. They truly listened to what each of us wanted and immediately began showing us vendors who they knew could make our vision come to life.
One of my favorite parts of the planning process was branding my wedding with Edna. This piece was important to my fiance and I as we truly wanted the event to reflect us as a couple. Together, we decided the wedding would have a majestic garden feel. Edna helped us infuse that look into everything from our invitations to our incredibly detailed castle wedding cake... I have NEVER seen so many people take pictures of the cake at a wedding! It was unbelievable! Thanks to Edna, every element of the wedding fit the exact look and feel we were going for. On the night of my wedding I just kept looking around admiring how gorgeous everything was and feeling so grateful to have had her in my corner.
That being said, anyone who has planned a massive event like this knows it's not just fun cakes and beautiful flowers there are hundreds of little details to organize, vendors to coordinate and a schedule to keep. That is where Kasie came in. As a busy business owner, I have a tight schedule and little time to organize an event of this magnitude. Kasie took care of it all! I would mention just once what it was that I wanted and poof Kasie would make it happen. She was super on the ball and unbelievably organized. She was always available to take a call from my mother and I and she even rush ordered a fan (the day before my wedding) for my mom to take to the ceremony after realizing it was going to be an unusually hot autumn day.
On the day of my wedding I did not worry about a thing! I knew Edna was at the venue making sure the space looked just as we imagined while Kasie was keeping track of the timeline and overseeing all of the vendors as they loaded in. My wedding day was the absolute best day of my life and a huge part of that was due to the EFD Creative team. I could have never done it without them!
Kasie and Edna made our wedding everything we dreamed it would be. We started working with EFD Creative about a year before our wedding date. We booked our venue and realized pre...
tty quickly that we were going to need some guidance as we navigated through the rest of the planning process. There were so many vendors to choose from, logistical issues to figure out and emails to respond to. That was when we found Kasie. As soon as we met her, we knew she would be a great match for us. She was so organized, helpful, energetic and friendly. She helped us prioritize our to-do list, she gave us wonderful vendor recommendations and helped us navigate the very complicated world of wedding planning! On the more creative side of planning, Edna helped us design our delicious wedding cake and wedding invitations to match our overall vision and help us maintain a cohesive style.
In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Kasie was invaluable. She confirmed all of our vendors, coordinated final payments, created an extremely detailed and thorough timeline and attended our rehearsal to help us work out any kinks. She must have sent and received hundreds of emails on our behalf. She took so much off our plate, we were able to really enjoy the weeks leading up to our wedding. We would have been lost without her knowledge and organization!
On the day of the wedding, Kasie made sure all of the vendors were set, she made sure everyone was prepared and keep us all on time. While doing all of these important jobs, she was always her sweet, smiling, calming self. She made sure our whole day went smoothly so that we could have an amazing and stress-free day. Kasie is truly AMAZING!
We can confidently say that hiring EFD Creative was the best money we spent in the whole wedding planning process. We would recommend them to anyone who is beginning to plan a wedding! You will be so happy you did!
Party of the Year!
That was what I told Edna I was looking for during our first conversation & boy did she deliver! Being busy professionals who are traveling often, we didn’t have...
the time or energy to plan a great wedding. Edna & her team were consultative, creative & helped us more than we even knew we needed. Edna was genuinely excited about our recent engagement & took the time to get to know our story. However, it was her honesty that ultimately made us love her. She was very direct about our ideas, budget & made sure that we had a realistic perspective on weddings in Boston. She understood our priorities & gave us her honest opinions on where she thought she & her team could help.
Ultimately, we contracted EFD Creative for their full suite of services; helping us with the vendor selection, creative design & branding, & day of services. BEST CHOICE OF OUR LIVES. We contracted with Edna in just a few days we had a venue & a tight timeline – our wedding was in less than 8 months! Edna wasn’t worried - she worked her magic, presenting us with top vendors in the area & within a week we had all of our vendors selected!
Much to my surprise, the creative process was a lot of fun! I wasn’t the typical bride that had been dreaming of their wedding for years, so I was nervous when Edna asked me about my wedding vision. As I fumbled to describe things I liked, Edna quickly had me using Pinterest, showing her different weddings that I thought were beautiful and explaining the elements that I liked from each one. From that inspiration, Edna was able to help me find my wedding vision and start making decisions. Everything from invitations to tablecloths, and flowers to signage; Every detail was considered thoughtfully and fit perfectly into the bigger wedding design.
Justin and I learned quickly to trust Edna and the process. There were many things that we had never even considered for the wedding, or line items that we wondered if they were worth the money, and trust me when I say...Edna was ALWAYS RIGHT. It was the little touches that made the difference. Just after we served dinner at the wedding, my boss Brian came up to me and said “I know this is kind of weird to say, but your place settings…they’re just beautiful! I couldn’t help but say something!” While I was surprised at his reaction, it was a testament to Edna’s creative process and vision for your special day. Each wedding she has done is unique and you can really feel the couple in every element of the design. My advice to any couple working with Edna would be to trust her advice and follow her process – your wedding will be better for it!
The day of the wedding…what a journey! Kasie was our day of coordinator & she was equally as amazing as Enda. Kasie carefully planned every detail of the day, from when vendors would arrive, to how my bridesmaids were getting lunch! She was key to making sure the entire day moved seamlessly without a hitch. When something did go wrong, Kasie handled it well. My wedding dress showed up wrinkled, Kasie called the boutique & insisted they send someone over to steam it in my room to ensure that it was perfect!
When all was said & done, Edna & Kasie always went above & beyond to help make our day even more special. We know that we wouldn’t have been able to do it without them, & honestly, we wouldn’t want to! Thanks to Edna & Kasie, our wedding was absolutely perfect & definitely the party of the year!
Our event was such a success thanks to the very talented team at EFD Creative!
Edna was amazing at working with the vision creating the look that was exactly what my daughter was ...
envisioning. Throughout the process she was able to take the vision and bring it together - from the invitation to the floral designs to the lighting, which was very important to me. Edna always knew it would come together and it was absolutely stunning. When I walked into the tent I couldn’t believe what I saw. All the hard work and time spent - it was magical!
Kasie was a master at making everything work logically. At first I thought we could handle this part of the planning ourselves, but once we got closer I knew she had to join in. All the many details that you don’t think of Kasie had it covered. She also dealt with many issues that I never knew about until much later when everything was resolved, and this helped us avoid so much stress, not only on the day of the event, but leading up to as well.
This is the second big event we have worked on with EFD Creative and we are extremely pleased with the outcome of both. I highly recommend EFD Creative if you are looking for an extraordinary experience!
I wanted something very special and unique - visual experience that captured a mystical, elegant design. I knew what I wanted, but I had so many thoughts on the overall vision. Edn...
a was able to take it all in and get to the core of my vision. I trusted her and that was the best thing I did! She created the enchanted forest vision I had been dreaming of. I appreciated that she really listened to me and saw what I wanted. She took the time, and together we made my dream come alive. I was so excited when I saw the room – it was everything I wanted and more.
I was so thrilled when Kasie came on board to help with the details. It took a lot of stress off me and my mom. We had so much going on and knowing Kasie was “on it” was so helpful. Every time we worried about something we would connect with Kasie and she relieved us of all the concerns.
I don’t know how anyone would plan an event without both Edna and Kasie! They were invaluable. And on top of it they became like family members. They were so comfortable to work with and fun to be around.
Thank you so much Edna and Kasie for all you did to make the day absolutely amazing!!!!
I can only speak to my personal experience with the outstanding staff of EFD Creative. When I was first introduced to Edna, I had to admit that I was probably going to be her most ...
clueless bride ever. I didn't have a 'vision' of what my dream wedding would look like and I had no idea how to answer some of the basic questions most planners ask. Edna was the first planner I spoke with who didn't make me feel like I was an inconvenience to her. She never once made me feel bad for not understanding why we needed to hire certain vendors, nor did she make me feel like I was strange for not knowing exactly what all the wedding etiquette was. She was patient, kind, and incredibly flexible. Edna understood my work-life balance and some of the challenges I have with making decisions. She can guide even the most clueless bride to the wedding of her dreams. Along with Edna, comes Kasie. When I first met Kasie, she was explaining to me and my mom how she enjoys organizing things and that we were in very good hands with her. In my head I thought 'Oh boy, Kasie, you are in for a treat...' I can only describe myself as disorganized chaos. I consider myself 'organized' if I manage to not leave my house without my laptop before heading to my job as a Computer Engineer....yes, the bar is set that low, haha. I honestly felt bad that Kasie (the sweetest person you will ever meet) was going to have to figure out how to get me organized! Not only did Kasie get me 100% organized. She has this calming energy about her. The day I packed my car to head to the venue, I was surprised how calm I was. Normally I would be scrambling to find everything I needed and panicking half way to the venue when I realized I had forgotten something. This is something that Kasie just does not allow :-) When you hire EFD Creative, you will be organized, you will be calm, and you will have hired the two most talented women in the industry to help you EVERY step of the way.
Kasie was absolutely amazing! She handled all of the logistics leading up to the wedding and made sure to keep everyone on schedule the day of. She brought so much enthusiasm to th...
e process and was talented at carefully resolving any conflict my mother and I had when it came to making decisions on the details, which ultimately helped keep everything running smoothly. She took so much pressure off of me (and my mother) throughout the entire process. I never felt like I had to worry about getting something done or figuring out where I was supposed to be at each moment. I also had a guest get a little too drunk, and Kasie went above and beyond to help get her home. I was able to be fully present at my wedding and that made my day better than I could have imagined.
Being from Philadelphia,planning my daughter'swedding in Boston could have been a nightmare.Luckily I found Edna and Kasie on line. From the selection of venues, to the weekend of ...
the big event, they handled everything in a calm professional manner. Edna's vision for the overall look and feel of the wedding was amazing. Her introduction to the vendors really made my life so much easier. When we had to come to Boston for vendor meetings, Edna arranged things to maximize our time.I can't say enough about Kasie's coordination of everything during the wedding weekend. Any doubts or concerns I had disappeared because I knew we were all In Kasie's very capable hands. If I had to choose a wedding planner again, knowing everything I now know, I would choose EFD Creative in a heartbeat.
After my daughter announced her engagement last year, we talked about where she would want to get married and have her reception. There was no question in her mind that Boston wou...
ld be her choice since she had been living and working there for several years. We are from Chicago and since I have no connections to anyone in the New England area we decided a wedding planner was in our best interest.
My daughter found EFD Creative with Edna and Kasie after interviewing several wedding planners in the area. From the moment we selected this talented team we not only felt at ease with all the details, but we truly felt like we had friends in the area who would steer us to the very best vendors, answer all our questions, and keep us organized beyond anything I could ever imagine. They were kind, respectful and most of all, totally on top of every single decision we had to make regarding our venue and ceremony. If I were to sum it up, I would say that this team is, without a doubt , the most valuable piece of the wedding puzzle that you will need to make your daughter's wedding memorable, beautiful, stressless and most importantly, her vision!
As you go down the path of preparation for the big event, Edna & Kasie will make sure that you are on task for everything. If any changes come up due to weather, guest numbers or any problems that may arise, they will be right there immediately to address and handle these changes. They take the worry and stress out of the wedding equation and make the journey much more enjoyable.
In the end, the wedding and ceremony which was at the Boston Harbor Hotel, was the most spectacular event I have ever attended. The lighting, floral arrangements, tablescapes, band, food and venue were five star and many of our guests wrote us notes to thank us and commented on the amazing event. None of this would have ever been possible without this team behind us. They were with us from the beginning and stayed until the last guest left that evening and kept track of everything.
Without a doubt in my mind, EFD Creative with Edna and Kasie, are who you want to hire for a life event as important as your daughter's wedding.
Edna and Kasie were amazing! We were not the easiest family to coordinate with— my fiancé (now husband!) and I live in Boston, my parents live in Philadelphia, and between all of...
our work schedules and my fiancé being a full time grad student, there were a lot of moving pieces— but Edna and Kasie were fantastic with communication and follow-up and always made it work.
Edna had great intuition about style and ideas that would appeal to us, and seamlessly build a design around those. The end result was more beautiful and cohesive than we possibly could have imagined! She was really responsive to our feedback, and went above and beyond to find and incorporate details to bring everything together. She was super available, and really easy to get in touch with. She also connected us with an amazing venue and vendors (I can’t say enough great things about the folks at Seaport Hotel, LifeFusion Photography, and Jeri Solomon Floral!) who made the day absolutely perfect!
Kasie is, hands down, the most detail oriented logistical wizard I can think of! She was super on top of everything, from timelines, to communication, to follow up, to anticipating last minute needs/ideas/concerns— the whole nine yards! She also had the most incredibly positive attitude, and was just a ton of fun to work with.
Our wedding was two weeks ago, and we can’t stop talking about how magical everything was— it was a really amazing day! Thank you, Edna and Kasie!
