We cannot say enough about Lily and the quality and drive she brings to your wedding or event! From the very beginning she felt like a good friend you haven't talked to in awhile a...

nd is very easy to get along with. She goes above and beyond when it comes to designing or planning your event and nothing gets by her. She has a fabulous eye for detail and really helps you bring your vision to life and then some! The amount of hustle she did on our wedding day was insane in such a short amount of time (due to the venue not letting her in sooner). We can't believe she made it look as amazing as it did! She will make things right while also making sure you are doing alright! We absolutely adore her and would hire her and her team again in a heartbeat. My wedding would be nothing without her!

We have worked with Events by Lily on two important occasions, and Lily truly went above and beyond for us both times. In fact, working with Events by Lily for our wedding was one ...

of the best decisions we made. We knew we were in excellent hands from our first meeting with Lily, and she exceeded our expectations on every level. Her communication was phenomenal, and she always made us feel like a top priority. Lily's professionalism and attention to detail were simply outstanding. She took the time to understand our style, and the decor was a perfect reflection of our personality. Her support throughout the planning process was exceptional, and she treated us like family. On our wedding day, we were moved to tears by the stunning transformation of our venue; the decor was even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. Lily is a true artist who brought our vision to life. What truly sets Lily apart is her creativity and problem-solving. She is a master of handling the unexpected, a great example is when she calmly created a beautiful floral arch to replace our no-show photo booth vendor at the last minute, which saved the day. We highly recommend Lily and her amazing team for any event

e had almost 350 attendees that included an outside ceremony too. I have heard nothing but compliments from the guests on her floral arrangement and overall planning and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. One of the most important events of our lives came through without a hitch.

Dear Nuzhat, My team and I appreciate the kind review. It was truly an honor to work with...

you as well. When a client places their trust in us, it becomes our duty to exceed their expectations, and we strive to do just that.

We look forward to the opportunity of working with you again for your future events! Warm regards, Lily A.

We recently had an event and Events by Lily truly exceeded our expectations. Lily went above and beyond to provide us with nothing but the BEST!!! She is highly experienced and she...

makes sure that her clients are happy. The decoration (floral styling and full setup) of our event was extremely beautiful, and all our guests were very happy. Everything was so perfect and words are simply not enough to praise her and say THANK YOU for the amazing work she did!!! From the planning through the day of the event, everything was on time and went so smoothly. Lily is very creative, her hands are so blessed, and she has very a beautiful heart. Therefore, if you need an Event Planner that will bring your vision to reality and give a memorable experience to your guests, then look no further. We highly recommend Events by Lily to anyone looking for an Event Planner in the area. We wish we could give more than a Five Star to Lily, she’s simply the BEST and we can’t wait to have her and her team on our next big event.
