Wow. Just WOW.
If you are researching wedding & event planners for your special day I suggest you don't walk, you RUN to the Emerald Events inbox as quickly as you can.
My husband, Jeff, and I hired Devyn a little over a year and a half ago as a full service planner and coordinator for our wedding that just took place this past June. I had no idea what I was looking for, I just knew I needed help. From the second I reached out to Emerald Events, Devyn was responsive, professional, kind, organized, excited and, most importantly, approachable. Out of all of the many reasons I loved working with Devyn, I appreciated most that I never felt like I was a bother or that she was a 'hired hand'. Since day one, I always felt a warmth & genuineness when we spoke. I always felt like I was discussing my wedding details with a friend. It was so comforting to me I cannot even begin to explain. I truly never had any idea she was planning any other events simultaneously as she planned ours. Because whenever we would meet, there was no scrambling, chaos or stress...she, even on the wedding day, was calm & had total control over all the details & specifics at all times.
Fast forward to our wedding in June. Devyn, alongside all of the spectacular vendors she researched and secured for us, created pure magic. I have had no other words to describe the event that came to be that afternoon other than magic. There was so much to coordinate, so much ground to cover and a torrential rainstorm and Devyn remained composed, organized & professional the entire time. I never once would have ever sensed that anything was stressful or hadn't aligned just so. We hold Devyn in such high regard, that we will forever tell people we feel she even had the power to change the weather that day.
As wonderful as the wedding planning process is overall, I will say it can be tumultuous and stressful for so many reasons. Devyn eased that stress & agony in all the ways a planner could. She answered our questions, always had ideas aligned with our vision and never presented us with unfortunate news without a killer back up plan/option already in tow. For anyone who has worked with Devyn, I assure you that we all will express the same level of gratitude and appreciation for the endless effort she put into each of our days. She is beautiful both inside & out and, out of all the wonderful decisions we made for our day, Emerald Events was definitely the best of all.
