I highly recommend Emerald Events by Nilsa for your wedding planning needs! We went with the Wedding Day Management package, so handing over the reins began around 2 months prior to our wedding - brides, you know how difficult this can be, but ...
I had no doubts about Nilsa's ability to organize and execute our vision. It was a huge relief to not have to worry about coordinating with vendors leading up to the big day. Nilsa was an absolute joy to work with, she thought of everything and was a calming presence throughout the whole process. You can't go wrong with her team!
If I could give 10 stars, I would. I started following Nilsa on IG a few years before I ever even got engaged and knew without a doubt that even though I have no idea what else I want in a wedding, I needed to hire them. There is no doubt in my...
mind that my wedding would not have been nearly as spectacular and beautiful without Nilsa and her team. She knew my wedding better than even the groom or bridesmaids. With my brain running a mile a minute with a million different ideas, she made sure that everything was cohesive, doable, and beautiful. She took my visions and hopes and made them a reality. When there was a problem or issue, Nilsa and Niani were on it - half the time, I didn't even know something had popped up. The day of the wedding, everything was set-up and taken care of so all I had to do was enjoy. Working with them was the best decision I made when it came to wedding planning- I wouldn't have wanted anyone else there.
Nilsa’s team is the absolute best! We worked with Kalisha as our head coordinator, and I would trust her and the whole Emerald Events crew with my life! They have tons of expertise and have truly seen it all. I had so many questions throughout ...
the process and about our reception venue, and they knew everything. They made our day seem like a breeze and truly made the reception look like a dream, better than I had ever imagined! Every time I had a stress or worry like “what about the ____!” on the day, Kalisha and Yasmin were already one step ahead and I didn’t have to spend another minute thinking about it. If you want a stress-free wedding day, I highly recommend them for their day-of coordination or other planning services.
Any questions?
Emerald Events helped me with coordinating my wedding in the two months leading up to it and day of which took place at the University of Richmond chapel and then at the Jefferson Hotel for the reception. Shannon and Kalisha did an outstanding ...
job making my day go so smoothly! It was an amazing feeling to not have to worry about all of the vendors we were working with. They handled everything calmly, and I never knew if anything was wrong because in my eyes everything went amazingly well! My day wouldn't have been nearly as successful and I wouldn't have even thought to plan it nearly as well if it weren't for Shannon and the amazing Emerald Events team. This is one of the best ways to spend your budget if you are planning a wedding- highly recommend working with them!
We were totally saved by Emerald Events by Nilsa. Shannon was our primary coordinator, and Yaya was our secondary. Without them, I don't know what we would have done. We planned so many elements of our wedding solo, but without their help we...
couldn't have made our vision possible, and tackle some of the last minute changes the week of and the day of the wedding. Their wedding website was also super helpful, and the cost of their services was a great value given what other coordinators charge and what they provide. When our ceremony encountered rain, they had a rain plan all prepped and ready to go. Alcohol for the reception not correct? They were on top of it before we even had an idea of how to pivot. Also, they were both so kind and made sure we were taken care of on our wedding day with so much action going on. If you're planning a wedding in Richmond and they have availability on your wedding date, don't pass up the opportunity to work with them.
I cannot recommend Emerald Events by Nilsa enough! I worked with Shannon and Kalisha and both were incredibly organized, professional, and wonderful to be around. They made sure everything ran smoothly despite several last minute COVID changes....
I cannot imagine what I would've done without their help and expertise.
The absolute best! Our wedding went off without a hitch. Kalisha was absolutely wonderful from the beginning of this journey to the conclusion of our wedding. I can honestly say that I gained a new friend working with Kalisha and plan on ke...
eping in contact with her. Your level of professionalism was shown throughout the process and I had many people compliment on just how well and smooth everything went. You made our happily ever after a dream come true! Thank you again!
I have to laugh as I write this review. I initially hired Nilsa to plan my wedding but anxiety got the better of me and we ended up working on a different contract. However, that aside, expertise cannot be overlooked ever. She was fantastic in ...
keeping me on point with what I was looking for, her detailed checklist was basically my Bible for the entire planning phase, and our check in phone calls always kept me on tip of my game, especially in terms of not forgetting important things for my out of town wedding. Her two associates who were there the day of ensured the entire event went off without a hitch and were such a blessing because I could always turn to one of them in case something needed doing or I couldn't find something. they were professional and so helpful and I'm genuinely so impressed by Nilsa and her team for how well they conducted everything behind the scenes. I may have found and booked my vendors, but they were the ones who ran the show and I am so grateful to them.
The first and best decision we made after getting engaged was hiring Emerald Events by Nilsa as our wedding planning team! As a couple who lives out of state, planning a wedding from afar is no easy feat but we were confident that Nilsa and her...
team were up to the task of working with our schedules to make our wedding day dreams come true. And they delivered! Shortly after we signed our agreement, Nilsa provided a detailed list of reputable wedding venues and vendors that fit our preferences and style. From there, she worked with us and our vendors to design an elegant wedding experience. On the few occasions we did visit the Richmond VA area, Nilsa was extremely accommodating by planning and participating in our in person vendor meetings. When Nilsa passed the ball to Shannon who would be our lead coordinator, we knew we were in great hands! She has a gentle spirit that will put any bride and groom at ease but she does not play when it comes to attention to detail and keeping your vendors in check.
When 2020 rolled around and our plans were near finalized, we made the tough decision to postpone our wedding not once, but twice. We were saddened that we would have to delay our dream
wedding. Nilsa and Shannon were there to comfort us and ensured us that everything would work out. Best of all, for both postponements, they reached out to all of our vendors to find a new date and get contracts updated. This was a huge weight lifted off of our shoulders. They truly went above and beyond what we could have ever imagined.
Fast forward to the day of the wedding, the team(Shannon, Yaya,Kalisha, and Nilsa) all made sure that everyone was where they needed to be to ensure we stayed on schedule. They even coordinated Ubers to get us to and from the Capital building for our first look. The ceremony and reception spaces were set up beautifully and WOW’d our wedding guests. When the day was over, we didn’t have to worry about lifting a single finger and could just enjoy our time as husband and wife.
It truly was the wedding of our dreams and it would not have been possible without Emerald Events!
Emerald Events by Nilsa is the only wedding coordinators/designers you need to book in Virginia! I can not express the amount of love and gratitude I have for Nilsa! Nilsa and Kalisha made our wedding day run seemless, absolutely perfect! They ...
were punctual, attentive, professional, and super sweet hard workers! Nilsa is a wedding genius. She literally is always thinking two steps ahead and has a solution for everything! All our guests and wedding party complimented how well they worked! They really are passionate about what they do and take care of their brides (and grooms too)! For example, the bride, me, forgot my veil and didn’t realize it until 5 minutes before show time. Nilsa went into emergency mode and quickly calmed me and ensured I’d have my veil before I walked into the reception. Her and Kalisha did just that! They took a 40 min round trip from the venue to my home and got my veil before reception as promised. Nilsa even put it on for me. I was so grateful. Truly made my day among alllll the other amazing things she did! But don’t be like me, remember your veil please 😂 Overall, I highly recommend Emerald Events by Nilsa! I want to get married again just to work with them another time. Book them! You won’t regret it! We love you Nilsa! ❤️
Emerald Events by Nilsa came highly recommended to me from a friend of mine that was also using their planning services. From the first chat all the way until now (a month after our wedding) they have been amazing! I had the pleasure of having ...
Kalisha and Shannon by my side to make sure everything was beyond what I imagined. I felt so comfortable letting them lead the way! They decorated the venue beautifully and made it more than magical and dreamy!!! My vision for the day was brought to life and then some! I’m telling you - book them! They are without a doubt, the best planners in Richmond! And I assure you that you will adore them just as much as we do!
Nilsa and her team were complete rockstars. From the moment they took on our wedding, I knew I was in good hands. They thought through everything and guided us the whole way. I cannot overstate how much they made a positive impact on our wed...
ding and how essential they were to the success of our day.
Working with Emerald Event by Nilsa was definitely one of the most important and best decisions we have made for our wedding! Nilsa is not only professional and considerate, but also went above and beyond when we had to reschedule our wedding d...
ue to COVID. Nilsa really cares about what we want for the wedding, listens to our ideas, and tries all different ways to make our dream wedding come true. Nilsa also has some innovative ideas to make our wedding better than we expected (design ideas, layouts, etc). When Nilsa worked as our wedding planner, we could feel that she wants our wedding to be OUR the dream wedding and goes out of her way to connect all of the dots with vendors to make the planning process a breeze. Day of, her whole team were a dream to work with - with many folks in our bridal party commenting about how amazing the Emerald Event team members were! We highly recommend Nilsa and Emerald Events to those who want to have help planning their wedding!
Nilsa went above and beyond our expectations, from constantly being available for meetings and questions during the month leading up to the wedding, to all the things I never would have even thought about planning wise, Nilsa and her team were ...
absolutely phenomenal. The wedding day went smooth and we got numerous complements on how well the day went and how helpful Nilsa was. Nilsa wanted to make sure our wedding day was exactly what we wanted and she worked to make that a reality. She even thought to take pictures and videos throughout the day so that we would have some to enjoy while we waited for the ones from the photographer to come back. I would definitely recommend Emerald Events month of coordinator option!
I attended a wedding which was organized by this fabulous company! Words can't possibly described the fabulousness of the great job this company did to make this wedding a most elaborate memory-ever.
I was back and forth about hiring a planner, but I reached out to Emerald Events by Nilsa and after speaking with them decided to hire them. Best decision EVER. I honestly could not have done it without them. They were professional, organized, ...
so nice, and on top of things. My planner was Shannon and I can’t say enough great things about her. She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding was perfect and stress free. Shannon became the point of contact for all of my vendors and helped me plan, decorate, and come up with ideas of things to do for the wedding. I can’t think of a single thing that went wrong on our wedding day, and that is because of Emerald Events!!
I cannot recommend Nilsa highly enough! We hired Nilsa to coordinate our ceremony; Nilsa and Shannon (her assistant) made sure the entire ceremony ran perfectly and exactly on time. She not only coordinated the ceremony, but also contacted all ...
our vendors the week before the wedding to make sure everyone was on the same page regarding the schedule for the day. Hiring Nilsa was one of the best decisions we made- she took so much stress away from us and allowed us to fully enjoy our ceremony. Thank you Nilsa!!
The best thing I did for my wedding was hire Emerald events by Nilsa! Kalisha who was my lead coordinator deserves 100 stars. She went above and beyond to make sure my day was special and beautiful. Kalisha, and Yasmin who helped the day of cou...
ldn’t have done a more beautiful and professional job. I was sad to have to stop having to talk to them everyday!! I highly suggest anyone who is not the fence about needing a coordinator 100% do it. Even though I have a wedding of only 65 people there were so many things that needed to go into the planning that I did not realize and Kalisha was there to guide me and be the amazing lady she is. My husband, and family were absolutely impressed and loved them.
We contracted Nilsa to handle the month-of coordination for our sort-of destination wedding in western Virginia. She really came through to help us with the details and contacting the various vendors, especially the caterer and the state park s...
taff where we got married. She did a phenomenal job easing our worries, especially since we were working on this from the West coast.
Her positivity, flexibility, and professionalism speak for themselves. I would absolutely hire her and her team for another event. They rock!
Emerald Events and Nilsa did a fantastic job helping us make our wedding and welcome party vision come together! The venue we choose for our wedding and reception was not frequently used for weddings, and it was invaluable to have Nilsa and Eme...
rald Events as the point person making sure all of the details fell into place. The organizational skills of Nilsa and her team are fantastic and really helped us feel more at ease and prepared going into the weekend. They helped make sure everything about the event went absolutely smoothly, from thinking through big details to helping with all the little things we needed a hand with on the big day. What's more, they were absolutely wonderful people to work with as we planned our big day in the months and weeks leading up to our event. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone thinking of using a coordinator or planner for their wedding!
Nilsa, Tessa and the crew were the absolute best! We gave them a tall order to coordinate not only a wedding and reception but also a 120-person welcome party the night before wedding festivities, all on the private campus of Woodberry Forest S...
chool. They were professional, kind, excellent at that fine line of organizing without being overbearing, and kept a watchful eye on absolutely everything. They even helped us put together almost 100 welcome bag gifts for the guests and made sure each guest received it. Well done all around so I highly recommend Nilsa if you'd like to feel well cared for and worry free at your event!
My wife and I had one of the most romantic and, shall I say, unique wedding receptions on July 20th 2019. It was not only because the bride and groom performed four unprecedented ballroom dance showcases at the reception but we had the steady a...
nd competent hands of EMERALD EVENTS BY NILSA steering our wedding program to a massive success.
We hired Emerald Events by Nilsa after interviewing several other prospects for the Day of Wedding Coordinator. We have no regrets but all praises to this amazing team. Our expectations were exceeded, and that is huge, given that my wife and I are quite meticulous.
Kalisha Crump was the point person at our wedding and she and her team member were professional, knowledgeable and committed to make us have a stress-free wedding. Cudos to Kalisha and Tessa!!
We could not have done it without a Day of Wedding planner and we definitely could not have done it with out you two!
We are super pleased with the pre-planning. We were extremely happy with the rehearsal and we are still on a high on how you coordinated our vendors, participants and you take the stress out of a wedding by making sure the wedding went based on our vision.
My wife was able to to focus on being beautiful and I was able to focus on her and remain in awe of being the luckiest man alive as I steer with loving gaze.
Wedding coodinators are important for the smooth running of a wedding. However, I would advocate that Day of wedding coordinator is necessary for medium and large weddings. I would recommend Emerald Events by Nilsa all over again.
Nilsa was so professional and easy to work with. On the wedding day she did even more than I thought to make everything go perfectly. I didn't have to think or worry about anything because we had planned it all together ahead of time. On top of...
that all my family commented about how nice she and Shannon were. She is very responsive to call and email which as anyone who has planned a wedding before knows is extremely important. I would highly recommend Nilsa to anyone looking for a planner or a day of coordinator.
When planning for my wedding and looking for day-of support, I knew I wanted someone who was going to take charge, ensure our guests had a wonderful experience, manage incoming vendors, as well as make sure my husband and I ate our dinner. We f...
ound Emerald Events by Nilsa and could not be more pleased with how Nilsa and her team supported us. From my initial phone call with Nilsa, I immediately felt connected to her and knew I was in good hands. While I took care of selecting vendors and placing orders, the execution of the day would have been impossible without Emerald Events. I truly did not have no worry about a single thing on the wedding day because Nilsa was on top of it from start to finish. Thank you times a million to Emerald Events by Nilsa for superior service!
I have gotten so many compliments from my wedding party about how great Nilsa and Shannon were on my big day. I even heard my husband tell someone " She made a clutch decision by hiring Nilsa and Shannon as the wedding coordinators!" From the p...
lanning stages all the way until wedding day, Nilsa kept me on track and focused. There is no way my wedding would have been so flawless without them.
Response from the Vendor on 04/18/2019
Thank you Shak! It was so much fun planning with you. Our "planning meetings" didn't feel like meetings at all. All the best to you and Reggie!
Nilsa and her team are smart, professional and are on top of every detail. Her pre-planning skills were both helpful and stress relieving as she has thought of everything to help your day run smoothly. I highly recommend Nilsa and her team for ...
your next wedding.

Courtney! Thank you so much. We miss you and Michael already.
First and foremost, my husband and I agreed that the best money we spent was on Nilsa and her team to help us stay organized and on top of things the day of our wedding. I wish I had booked her for the whole last month! We cannot say enough ama...
zing things about this sweet, fun lady and what a phenomenal job she did for us. Nilsa is not only organized to the max, but she is kind, funny, and a breath of fresh air (especially when the nerves and jitters kick in). Nilsa made sure we ate at our reception, kept events moving, and wrangled family like a seasoned pro (which she is, obviously!)! Her assistant, Kalisha, was awesome as well and made sure our reception area was all set and ready for the party! Hiring a wedding planner was a good idea; hiring Nilsa was the best idea!
Response from the Vendor on 01/04/2019
Sarah! Thank you so much. It has been so awesome working with you! My cheeks hurt from how much we’ve laughed together. Wishing you and Steve love and happiness!!
Nilsa and Shannon were everything and more I was hoping for! If there were any problems on the wedding day I didn't know about them, which is exactly what I wanted in a day of coordinator! They had great ideas and recommended awesome vendors....
Everything was perfect and well beyond what I thought was possible on our budget.
Thank you Nilsa and Shannon!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/01/2018

erything worked GREAT! We absolutely LOVED working with them. Their attention to detail is second to none!! Thanks Emerald Events by Nilsa!
Response from the Vendor on 10/24/2018
Thank you Joyce!! I'm so happy you were pleased.
Do yourself a favor-- don’t bother finishing this review. Just contact Nilsa now and set up a meeting ASAP. You won’t regret it.
My husband and I hosted a “low-key, easy” engagement party that turned into an absolute nightmare. We realized we...
were in way over our heads just trying to host 50 people in a backyard. After our third fight the morning of the party, we decided we needed to find a way to make room in our budget for a planner.
Nilsa was the first, and only, planner we met with. She immediately made us feel calm and excited for the wedding, rather than just stressed for the planning. She somehow simultaneously exudes an attitude of “this is a BIG. DEAL. and needs to be perfect!” but also “I’ve done this a million times, it’s no problem.” She’s got a few differently-priced plans, we went for the mid-tier “partial planning” option which allowed us set monthly meetings, unlimited calls/texts/emails, and day-of-coordination. She was very affordable compared to many planners, and her services frankly were priceless.
Throughout the planning process, she was a calming and positive presence. When our caterer fell through and I wanted to cancel the whole she-bang, she immediately sent me a list of recommended caterers and assured me that we’d find someone else we’d be happy with. Lo and behold, we had another caterer lined up within a week. She gave me recommendations for every service we needed, and managed to convey their usefulness without ever making me feel pressured or obligated to go with who she recommended.
In the weeks leading up to the wedding, she assured me that on the big day, I wouldn’t have to do anything but show up. I did not believe her at all, as I’m pretty high-strung and controlling. I sat with my phone next to me all morning, waiting to get a panicked call, and resisting numerous urges to call her and check in. Neither of those things happened-- I had a lovely morning, and showed up to our venue and SQUEALED audibly when I saw how her and her assistant had set up the room. As promised, my husband and I didn’t have to lift a finger all day. She checked in with us a few times to make sure we were staying on schedule (which we adjusted to our needs) and….yeah, I don’t even know what to say about it except that she was right, all we had to do was show up.
I can not recommend this woman and her company enough. We went into the planning process with NO IDEA what we wanted, and she helped us shape a beautiful and unique day that was perfectly suited to us. For 11 months, she was a voice of reason, a calm in the storm, a competent presence and, most importantly, a smiling face. As I noted, her prices are quite reasonable. But there is no way to account for her true value; for her smiles, for her assurances, for her positivity, her calming nature, and her general vibe of “I got this; you got this; WE got this.”
Response from the Vendor on 09/12/2018
Kailie! I remember how worried you looked when we had our first consultation. I also remember how much you smiled each time we spoke after that. That is what I loved the most about you and Ell. You both seemed SO HAPPY. Every time I looked at...

Dominic - you and Taylor were so much fun to be around. We laughed at just about every meeting. Miss you guys so much! Thank you both for choosing us to be with you during such a special time! Hugs to you both!!
If I could give more stars I would because Emerald Events by Nilsa made my wedding day perfect!! I booked Nilsa for day-of planning and she took all of my vendors I had booked (even recommended some when I needed help), questions, and concerns ...
and smoothed everything out for me. Nilsa is the sweetest and most patient person I ever worked with and gave me great advice and was always available for me at any time. What I loved the most is that her team organized everything from decorations to my send off and even safely packed all of my things after the wedding so that I could fly off to my honeymoon and not have to lift a finger! I HIGHLY recommend Emerald Events by Nilsa, you will not regret it!
