Elegant Pairings: Events by Nicole

between the two of us, and a military schedule to navigate through. My mom came into town and set up a few meetings with planners, and Nicole was the first one we met with. When I say she blew my mom and I's socks off...we actually cancelled all the rest of the meetings we had set up for the day. She was sweet, professional, smart, energetic, and clearly very knowledgable about her field. Plus, her pricing was incredibly reasonable-much better than some of her competitors in the area. We were even a little nervous about planning a wedding during one of the busiest wedding seasons of all time (2022), but she assured us with complete confidence that we would have the wedding of our dreams regardless. We booked her that day for full-service, and the rest is history. If you are overwhelmed with the idea of planning such a big day in your life, I cannot recommend Nicole more. She was there for me every step of the way, made recommendations when I was unsure, answered my panicked texts and emails when I was overthinking little details, brought us the best vendors with amazing prices, and always gave me her utmost attention when we met in person. One specific memory I have is when we met at a coffee shop to go over the website, and we ended up sitting and talking about non-wedding stuff for over an hour! It was so nice to work with someone who actually cared, was clearly passionate about her work, and who I could count as a friend at the end of all this. My fiance and I's wedding day was an absolute dream come true, and we genuinely had so much fun. A sign for me that we made the right decision to book full service planning was that I wasn't stressed for even a second during wedding weekend. I feel like for a lot of brides, the day of the wedding is lovely, but every second leading up to it is chaotic and generally not a good time. Nicole and her team gave me the confidence that the day would go smoothly, and that I didn't have to worry about a thing. Just an example to attest to this: Nicole ended up being unable to come to the wedding due to health concerns (health is obviously a priority, I know she would have been there if she could), but she sent her husband and two members of her team to work with us during the day. We had laid out an itinerary for the day weeks prior, and she had made sure all vendors were up to date on it. Caitlin, the team member who stood in for Nicole, was the absolute sweetest, and was always by my side making sure everything was up to standards. Even though it was unfortunate that Nicole couldn't be there, it truly shows how invested, personal, and detailed her services are. To put it bluntly, with my fiance and I's very busy schedule, I know this wedding wouldn't have been as beautiful without her help, or have even happened quite frankly. I feel so blessed to have met her and to have worked with her for 11 months. She will always be a part of the reason I look back on my wedding fondly. So, as someone who was once very skeptical about the wedding planning business, I can say with full confidence that I'm converted. I recommend every bride get a wedding planner, and if you're in the Mobile-30A area, book Nicole!!!

e a month, and even scrambled to find a new caterer when my original disappeared a month before the wedding. For the day of the wedding I had Caitlin as my day of coordinator. The woman seriously deserves some kind of award for how she handled everything. She made our timeline flow so smoothly, she made sure I was always feeling okay and had whatever I needed, and she did literally everything with a smile. She just made the day better with her attitude and ability to just make sure everything was calm/collected. I could go on and on about how amazing these women are at what they do and how they are fantastic human beings. I can’t recommend them enough & can’t wait to watch them continue to plan gorgeous weddings!

I would recommend her to anyone looking for a planner! We are so lucky to have found Nicole. Without her, our day wouldn’t have been possible!

g, attention to detail and organization flawlessly and any couple will truly see the Elegant Pairings difference when using her services. This team is above and beyond at all times. Please book them before slots fill and watch the magic unfold!

nator but we are so glad we did. If you’re questioning it at all - hire Nicole! You won’t be disappointed.

he area we were looking to get married, including vendors, availability and locations. On top of it all, she is the sweetest person and a good friend! Would highly recommend her as your wedding planner!

h Nicole!

ion wedding at the Island in June. She met with us last November when we had a visit and tastings. We had zoom meetings, emails and texts to keep us rolling through the process. She went above and beyond to help make sure everything involving our special day was perfect!! We are so blessed Nicole was our wedding planner and we can’t say enough great things about her!! Our friends are like family and we definitely count Nicole as family!

for the wedding day. I had no stress the day of the wedding because I knew Nicole was handling it all. We even changed the timeline as we went during our reception and she was happy to help make it happen. I’d hire her a million times more!

ly how we wanted it. She helped us find a DJ who did a great job, helped communicate with a difficult catering situation, and was very attentive to insuring that the timing of everything was flowing well and what we wanted. 10/10 will and do recommend.

rt for the reception that worked out great for our space. She did a great job coordinating my wedding day timeline, getting the vendors to the wedding on time and keeping my bridal party on schedule. She set up my decorations and it looked beautiful!!!! She was there through our whole reception and addressed any needs. Everything went smooth. I can't say enough about her services and how much stress she took away from me the month of and on our Wedding Day. Nicole is great, I was so relaxed and enjoyed getting ready with my bridal party because I knew she was taking care of everything. My bridal party was very impressed with how organized everything was and that was all becuase of Nicole. I highly recommemd her. 

ks of setting up and breaking down. I am so happy that I found Nicole! From the moment I booked her services she was responsive to all of my planning questions for almost an entire year leading up to our wedding day, which really helped ease my mind through the planning process. Nicole created a day of timeline and worked directly with my photographer and other vendors to ensure their timelines matched up. On our wedding day she and her assistant came in and set up all of my personal decorations (even the rented silk flowers I used for the day-it truly was a large task) was able to relax in the bridal suite and come down to a completely transformed reception space that was even more beautiful than I had imagined in my head. Wedding days truly are soooo busy & they go by in the blink of an eye. Nicole kept us on schedule, she bustled my dress after our formal photos and even brought me a cocktail before the ceremony while we were waiting for the rain to pass. Our wedding cake was over 2 hours late & because I had Nicole on my wedding day, I had no idea how late the cake was until the week after the wedding when I received a phone call and a refund to my account for the cake being so late. If you are in the market for a wedding planner or coordinator I would not hesitate to hire Nicole, she was an absolutely invaluable resource through the entire wedding planning process and wedding day, I will continue to sing her praises for making our wedding day stress free and absolutely beautiful.

any questions, give any recommendations, and most importantly honest opinions on anything I had questions about. Her and her team handled all of the setup, breakdown, and packaging up of all of our personal decor at the end of the night, and had an open line of communication to all of our vendors throughout the planning process. Caitlin did a great job at running our brief rehearsal the night before our wedding and Courtney was excellent in helping Nicole on the day of the wedding keeping everyone on time and helping with anything I needed. If you’re looking for a dedicated, reliable, and personable wedding planner/coordinator do not hesitate to book with Elegant Pairings Events by Nicole

t perfectly. She was attentive and helpful with getting all of my vendors coordinated at the wedding venue and tied up all loose ends (including placing decorations and table place settings) the day of the wedding. I don't know what I would have done without her and her wonderful team. I highly recommend hiring her for your event!

the day and offered advice in areas I was uneducated in (which was a lot). She allows you to be as involved/uninvolved in the process as you want, which was perfect for my Type-A personality. There are not enough words to describe how amazing she is, but your own wedding, as ours was, will be evidence--I PROMISE!

r wedding. We had so many ideas, we just needed organization and some help. Nicole was there every step of the way, through every zoom call, every text, every meeting, and throughout the entire day. She listened to EVERY detail. We had many non-traditional requests and she made sure ALL of them happened. She confirmed every vendor. By the time we had a few months out, she would ask if I needed anything else, I honestly didn't. She had done EVERYTHING!!!! She coordinated everything before and during our special day. Everyone asked me the morning of if I was nervous or stressed, they were shocked when I said no. How could I be? She took care of it all! Time came for us to leave our condo and head to our church. I was over an hour late. I was like "oh no, Nicole is going to be so mad". Not at all! She assured me we were going to be just fine, and we definitely were! We were right on schedule, which was perfectly laid out on her timeline! She stuck with us from beginning to end. Actually she changed before the ceremony and I was like "girl I didn't know you were going to change and be fancy". She said "well I would never show up to your wedding a mess!". Like you did EVERYTHING for us, I was not worried how you looked (so cute!). She was right beside me throughout the ceremony and reception, but wasn't at the same time. I was able to just float through and enjoy. She stay long after to help clean up and continued to check in on me. We still are in contact months later! She has become a wonderful friend. She also still continues to support our marriage and others she has done in the past, posting constantly about her memorable times. I am so excited to continue to see her grow her business because every single person deserves to have her help and/or plan their wedding. Absolutely amazing!!!!

th family rather than worrying about set up/vendors/and tear down. I'm so happy we went with her and recommend her to anyone looking for help with their wedding.

please please pick Nicole!!!

our wedding day was so crucial, we couldn’t have done it without her. When a few hiccups arose during our reception, Nicole was able to navigate through it by rearranging the order of events and keeping the event going smoothly at the same time. Absolutely would recommend Nicole to all brides in the Northwest Florida area!
