The Secret to a Perfect Wedding? Daniella at Events on a Budget!
Working with Daniella and Events on a Budget was hands down the best decisions we made for our wedding! I went straight to EOAB as soon as I got engaged, after attending my aunt’s stunning wedding that Daniella had planned and from the very beginning, I knew we were in the best hands.
Daniella was kind, patient, and professional from day one. Finding someone who matched my level of attention to detail was such a gift! She made sure every single item on my checklist was completed to perfection, and her curated monthly to-do lists were exactly what this Type A bride needed.
She never once made me feel overwhelmed or “too much”- even when I sent her a million ideas, changed my mind, or made last-minute requests. Daniella remained calm, understanding, and always ready with a solution. Most importantly, she was completely committed to bringing our vision to life!
On the big day, Daniella and the EOAB team went above and beyond to ensure everything was beautiful, seamless, and stress-free. From the getting ready with Darlene assisting until the moment we left, we was able to be completely present and enjoy the moment knowing that they had everything under control.
We have had so many guests tell us how beautiful, detail oriented, seamless, and FUN the day was and that’s all thanks to Daniella’s incredible planning and behind-the-scenes magic!
If you're looking for a planner (and trust me, you should- it’s the best investment you’ll make) who is not only incredibly talented and organized but also genuinely cares about you and your day, go with Events on a Budget. The whole team (especially Daniella) is a true gem, and we are forever grateful for the unforgettable day she helped us create.
Thank you, Daniella, for everything! 💕 You survived two crazy Hernandez girl weddings exactly 51 weeks apart! I would recommend you to everyone and I can’t wait to see you again- hopefully planning a wedding where I get to be a guest next time!

We are beyond grateful for Daniella at Events on a Budget! Planning our wedding felt overwhelming at first (especially since we didn’t have a strong vision and wanted to keep things minimal) but Daniella took our vague ideas and turned them into something truly beautiful.
Our venue, Redland Koi Gardens, was honestly difficult to work with at times, but Daniella handled everything with professionalism and grace. She took the stress off our shoulders completely and navigated every challenge without creating unnecessarily stress or drama.
Her communication was incredible throughout the entire process, she kept us in the loop without ever making us feel burdened, and she anticipated needs we didn't even know we had. We had difficult family dynamics she took care of and we were mostly incident free. She took charge and day of made sure I had everything I needed and only came to me when absolutely necessary. From the smallest details to major decisions, she made everything seamless and stress-free.
If you’re looking for someone who truly gets it and can deliver magic on a budget, Daniella is it. We can’t recommend her enough!

Daniella was absolutely incredible. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, supported, and genuinely excited about every part of the planning process. She always catered to me and what I wanted—no matter how specific, last-minute, or indecisive I may have been at times. You can tell that wedding planning isn’t just a job to her—it’s her passion. Her enthusiasm is contagious, and she brings such a positive, calming energy to every meeting and moment. Thanks to Daniella, our wedding day was everything I dreamed of and more. I couldn’t have asked for a better planner or partner through the process.

My experience with Events on a Budget (“EOAB”) was amazing. I did not need a full-time wedding planner but I also did not feel comfortable having a day of planner because I wanted a bit more help in the planning and also wanted the planner to get to know me and what I would want to happen in the event of any sort of day of wedding mishaps. The EOAB Wedding in a Box package was the best of both worlds and I got to work with Daniella, who was fabulous. Daniella and the EOAB team were so patient, knowledgeable, and honest with me about every step of the planning process. Any concerns I had were always met with thoughtful and reasonable solutions that did not sacrifice aesthetic. My day was exactly what me and my husband envisioned and I truly wish I could relive the day. Thank you to Daniella and the EOAB team for making my day so seamless and beautiful!

Events on a budget is absolutely necessary to help ensure your special day is well organized and runs smoothly! Kristy was very patient from the beginning to help me determine which vendors and packages I wanted to include in my wedding in a box bundle and Daniella was just so helpful and organized with every little thing from expenses to coordinating every detail with all the vendors and of course the day of making sure everything was running on time and beautiful and a wonderful experience! Thanks so much ladies for all your hard work! The only thing I wish they would do differently is give you a price breakdown from the beginning of what each vendor would cost through the package. They did ultimately accommodate that for me.

There truly are no words to describe how grateful we are to Melissa and her incredible team for giving us the wedding of our dreams! Throughout the entire wedding planning process, Melissa made us feel comfortable, understood, and celebrated.

Eventsonbudget provided me with the wedding of my dreams. They made us dreams come through in real life. Kristy was our wedding planner and she took care of us from beginning to end. Just keep in mind even though they offer more affordable packages it is not cheap. Almost about every upgrade depending on what you want will be an up charge but you can be flexibility and take other things out you don’t need. The best thing about the process was the photographer that was included in our package Vicky. She was amazing and knew our venue like the palm of her hand. I am still in awe with her photos and how she took care of me and my wife. I would recommend this company to anyone looking to have a wedding. Melissa the company owner was also amazing to work with and very knowledgeable.

I used Events on a Budget for Day-of coordination and they were amazing! Melissa was so organized and helped us feel ready and prepared for each facet of our wedding. Despite being very detail oriented, I had never planned a wedding and it was very daunting to try considering all the aspects of the wedding that would make it a great day for us as well as our guests. This is where Melissa was so helpful in our pre-wedding meeting and put my mind at ease. She's quick, reliable, and offered great suggestions on items we were clueless about. On the day of the wedding, Melissa and Darlene made sure everything ran smoothly and I had multiple friends in the events industry tell me after the wedding that they were so impressed by them. We were able to enjoy our wedding day and all of these months later we talk about how this was the best money spent on our wedding because it meant we could be fully present in every part of the celebration. Thanks again to the EOAB team!

Simply put, hiring EOAB for our wedding planning was the best decision we made. The gratitude we have for Daniella is hard to put into words. She is the utmost professional, so warm, so organized and from the first time we chatted I knew she understood what my vision was. She spent the next 9 months helping me achieve it. An example that really stands out to me is that I really wanted a stage...I wanted the DJ and musicians we hired to stand out from the crowd and feel elevated. My now husband (!), an accountant -- a blessing and a curse lol -- couldn't comprehend the prices we were getting as quotes and furthermore, just couldn't justify it. At our Pre-Wedding meeting with Daniella at the beginning of April, she made one final call and got us an offer even Alex couldn't refuse. Our stage, as you can imagine, looked INCREDIBLE. I owe this to Daniella, 100%....among countless other things she did for us.
While we will miss her dearly, she holds such a special place in our hearts and our gratitude for her/EOAB is endless. There is not a bride I will meet that I won't send your way.

The ladies at Events on a Budget are the best. Daniella was our lead coordinator, and she held our hand through making the decisions we needed to make our day as beautiful and stress free as it was. We used their "wedding in a box package", as we already had some elements taken care of like venue/food and beverage, but we still needed help hiring a DJ, florist, officiant and photographer. They made great recommendations in those departments, and then they were key in making the day of the wedding go smoothly. I wanted my family and friends to be able to enjoy the day, so having a coordinator to deal with all of the details and making sure everyone and everything was where they needed to be was HUGE! Would wholeheartedly recommend. The money you pay for their services is worth it for the peace of mind that you get. Enjoy the process and especially your wedding day!

Very grateful for their team, and that they were a one stop shop for rentals, catering, our DJ, florals, etc. Overall a fabulous team.
They truly made all our dreams come true, and even at the last minute we had to scramble for a tent because of the rain! She was on it, and made it happen asap.
Thank you for everything! We could not recommend EOB enough!!!

Melissa B was our wedding planner and we started to plan 8 months before the big day! This was a destination wedding for us. We are from Sydney Australia, and planning a wedding in Miami could’ve been challenging with the distance and time differences for our meetings. Melissa was so flexible with times, she worked outside of her work hours and for us it was 5am zo meetings. From multiple video tours of venues until describing in detail the cake flavours and the catering. Sending us more then enough information about each vendor and setting up meetings with all of them individually. It all worked out so well! From the beginning until the end Melissa was consistent, organised and so super helpful until the smallest detail. There is a lot of stress and emotions involved before the wedding and Melissa knew exactly how to calm the nerves and found for every issue and challenge a great solution. The wedding itself was seamless and looked like a true fairytale story. All our guests were telling us that this was the most beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to. Melissa B exceeded our expectation and we would recommend EVERYONE to have Melissa & the team being a part of their wedding. We can not thank Melissa and team Events on A Budget enough of how great and amazing of a job they’ve done.

From the beginning we felt like we were in good hands. Daniella was absolutely amazing and helped me with all the little details I hadn’t even thought of. We also bundled our florals with the day of coordination. The flowers exceeded everything I could have even imagined. Day of, Daniella and her assistant did amazing with the reception and made sure we were taken care of. She even helped me change out of my dress, which was no easy feat. We agreed the best expense of our wedding was hiring Events on a Budget. We couldn’t have had such a perfect day without them!

Their entire team from Daniella the wedding planner, to the assistants, to the musicians, to the caterer, all were very professional and kind and all were a big part of making our day very special. The flowers were out of this world. Many of the guests made comments as to the phenomenal musicians and the Christian music - which was very important to us. They were excellent. From the smallest to the biggest details, I was absolutely wowed. Again, thank you Daniella and EOAB. They are top-notch.

The Events on a Budget team is the best! Pam was my month of coordinator and helped me stay sane the month before my wedding. She took over all vendor communications, handled all the logistics for the day of and final confirmations with all vendors! On wedding day, pam was a blessing. Making sure ceremony was getting started, getting me food & drinks, and getting the reception going smoothly though dinner into the party! Pam also packed everything up at the end of the night like a ninja. I cant thank the EOAB team and their wedding in a box vendors enough for giving me my dream wedding day!

One of my sister’s friend recommended Events on a Budget for wedding planning services and I’m SO GLAD she did! Sam and I got engaged in January and shortly after I contacted Events on a Budget to learn more about their services and packages. We both knew we wanted to get married within 6 months. Based on what I had heard from other brides, I thought a 6 month timeframe would be hard for selecting a venue, contracting all the vendors, sending invitations, etc. After our first meeting with Events on a Budget they reassured us that 6-months would be 100% achievable and they were right! Sam and I decided to go with a “Wedding in a Box” package that included the primary vendors (DJ, Photographer, Flowers, Videographer, caterer, cake, and wedding coordination). Once we signed the contract we were assigned Daniella as our wedding planner. Daniella was AMAZING! We had a kickoff meeting where she reviewed the package with us and then provided us a list of vendor options for the photographer and videographer. We then met at her office and had a super fun meeting with the florist to start selecting the décor and floral details. This also included table settings, etc. Soon after we did our food and cake tasting. Daniella coordinated EVERYTHING for us and had a detailed agenda for the day with addresses and exactly what to expected at each meeting. She noted every detail and feedback we gave on the food and cake and shortly after followed up with a perfectly summarized email. A few weeks after that awesome experience, we meet in the office again for a sample table setting. This was great to really get an idea of what the décor would look like for each table. Next we met with the remaining vendors (DJ, Photographer and videographer) so they could get to know us ahead of our big day! Again, Danielle coordinated EVERYTHING which made it so easy for Sam and I since we both have pretty demanding jobs. The last big meeting before the wedding what the full day coordination meeting. During this call Daniella walked us thru a minute by minute itinerary she put together, for a very detailed orientated person like me, this was INCREDIBLE. She remembered every note from our previous meetings and I felt like really truly understood what we were looking for. Throughout the wedding planning process Daniella made things fun, easy and was extremely organized. One of my favorite attributes was her honesty. When I asked her for feedback or recommendations her response felt like a friend was giving it. The best and most incredible part of the whole experience for Sam and was the actual wedding day. We were SO IMPRESSED with Daniella’s leadership, attention to detail, and overall ownership of ensuring a successful execution of our wedding day. Daniella was EXTREMELY ATTENTIVE throughout the night. She got us a plate of hors d'oeuvres so we could enjoy while we were taking our portraits, she continuously checked we had our favorite drink on hand, she got us our meal while we were going around the tables to say hi to our guests and remembered every single special request we made to her during the planning process. Our experience working with Events on a Budget, but especially Daniella, was absolutely PERFECT and took away so much stress! Even our wedding party and several guests shared with us how incredible the coordination and planning was! I promise, you won’t go wrong with Events on A Budget!

There are not enough words to describe how incredible Melissa and this team is. They made mine and my husbands wedding day and absolute dream come true. From every small detail, Melissa and the team executed it perfectly and truly made our vision come to life. Leading up to our wedding, Melissa was amazing with communicating with vendors and giving advice. She took care of us without managing us, we are truly blessed to have her throughout this entire process. On our wedding day Melissa also had Pam there to assist her who was equally amazing. They were there whenever we needed them and made sure we moved at a pace that was comfortable to us but still kept to our wedding timeline. When I walked out to see my reception room I literally gasped at the florals, they were so breathtaking and beyond anything I could have ever dreamed! Thank you, Udeley! I couldn’t have asked for a better team of vendors! Thank you so much Melissa for making our special day so perfect and everything run so smoothly!

The Events on a Budget team went above and beyond our expectations.
As a couple who live in Los Angeles trying to plan a wedding in Miami, we knew we needed someone who could guide us along our journey.
The team at EoaB were incredible. They put quote after quote together for us as we added and removed things from their traditional wedding in a box package, and they did so without batting an eye.
The vendors recommended to us (and we went with) were absolutely TOP NOTCH. Every single person was professional, courteous, friendly, and wonderful. I can't say enough wonderful things about the people that helped make our day so special.
Know that the most communication will happen at the beginning of your planning process and the month before the big day. Of course they are communicative throughout, but don't fret if you don't hear from them for a while as everything is being taken care of behind the scenes (and there is only so much that can be done 7 months in advance after the big vendors have already been booked).
Melissa and her day of staff were ON IT. Those women work so hard to ensure things are smooth, taken care of, and that YOU don't have to worry about a thing. We had guests come up to us to say how amazing our wedding planners and coordinators were. That's unheard of!
Overall, we can't recommend them enough and are grateful and thankful we chose them to help us plan our wedding. Use them if you have the opportunity.

Hiring Events on a Budget (EOAB) for our wedding was the best decision! We loved the Wedding in a Box option- it gave us the flexibility to plan our vision and the support we needed during the process. The vendors that we selected as part of our package were AMAZING! Melissa from EOAB was so wonderful to work with! She made us feel heard and excited throughout the planning process. She is patient, detailed, reassuring, and a bustle queen! When it rained during our cocktail hour, Melissa and her team worked quickly to make sure that the party could continue. Everything ran smoothly and we didn't worry about a thing! We are grateful to Events on a Budget for all they did to make our wedding perfect. We highly recommend hiring them for your special day!!

Melissa and the Events in a Budget team were incredible to work with! We got in touch with them for their services two years before our wedding and they were with us every step of the way with professionalism, friendliness, organization, and responsiveness. They took care of details we would have never thought of! We are so happy with their in-house floral services, the DJ they picked for us, and overall planning. Thank you!!!!

Events on a budget (EOAB) was truly a pleasure to work with. I hired them to plan my whole wedding and my husband and I were beyond satisfied. I felt no stress during the planning period. They answered all my questions and I always felt 100% confident in their capability to create the wedding I envisioned. Melissa was amazing to work with. She was professional yet extremely easy to talk too and understood the vision I had. My wedding day was truly a dream come true. All the details were better than I could’ve hoped and I’m eternally grateful for the work and support that EOAB provided

Melissa and Daniella were incredible! Daniella made my entire experience so easy and seamless and approached everything with kindness and professionalism. She was super organized and when it came time for my wedding, I was able to chill and enjoy the day because I knew she had things under control. 10/10 would recommend!

I genuinely feel so blessed to have found Events on a Budget! The wedding in a box package was exactly what I needed. I found EOAB 2 months before my wedding feeling overwhelmed and almost in a panic, they immediately put me at ease and handled everything promptly and with the utmost professionalism and care. They found me the best photographer, florist, Hora Loca, etc. Everything was done electronically and through the portal which made everything so seamless and just efficient, I had the option to do Video call but I decided to visit their office where I was greeted with choice of beverage and treats which just goes to show how on point EOAB is. They made me feel like a Queen!
I am truly grateful for the work they do.
On the day of the wedding Melissa B and Daniela were top notch they set everything up flawlessly and coordinated everything with expertise. They also made sure I had always had a drink in my hand and that my husband had his coffee. We appreciate this so much. shows you were truly listening and taking note! THANK YOU!!!!!
THESE PEOPLE ARE PROS!!!
My only regret was not finding them sooner!

I would highly recommend using Events on a Budget (EOAB). They were phenomenal! It was worth every penny and it made the process so much smoother. On my wedding day, I was not worried about a thing! My husband was skeptical at first because it is a good chunk of change, but it includes so much in the package. In my package I had a coordinator, an extra day of coordinator, limo, photobooth, food, linens, plates, some tables, florals, and so much more! It was also so nice to have it all come from one place, and I did not need to do all the planning for it. By the end of our wedding night, my husband said, "That was totally worth it." It was worth every penny we spent. So, if you're not sure about getting a wedding coordinator, do it because you won't regret it on your big day. And you should definitely use EOAB because they are amazing!

I am beyond grateful to EOAB and my selected planner, Melissa B for helping me bring my modern black & white wedding aesthetic dreams come true! From the food to the flowers, to the amazing DJ and lighting, the day-of assistant and transportation - these are just some of the services I chose in my wedding package and I can never thank this company enough for making the wedding planning process basically seamless and stress-free! I would have not been able to feel so relaxed on the day-of if it wasn’t for my planner Melissa B and day-of assistant Darlene, they are beautiful people inside and out. I will never stop recommending them and EOAB for anyone I know getting married. 10/10 forever recommend.

WORTH. EVERY. PENNY! I can't thank Olga enough for taking all of the stress off of me leading up to the big day and making my wedding run so smoothly! If you're contemplating getting a planner, or at the very least a month-of / day-of coordinator, DO IT. I planned the majority of my wedding by myself (picking the venue, booking all vendors, etc), but when it came down to a few months before my wedding, I had no clue what else to do. Truly, if you've never planned a wedding before, you don't know what you don't know. I had no idea how to confirm contracts, coordinate vendors and pick-ups / drop-offs, and all the other intricacies of wedding planning. As soon as Olga stepped in, I immediately knew I was in good hands. About 6 weeks before my wedding, we had several hours long video chats going over everything and creating a detailed timeline (which really gave my type A personality some peace). Leading up to the wedding, Olga was in constant contact, even helping me by going to all of my vendors in Miami when I couldn't (I live in New England), and answering every question I had. On the day before and day of the wedding, Olga was truly a saint and she helped to make my wedding weekend an absolute dream. She even knows how to re-bustle a dress when your husband steps on your train and breaks your dress walking into the reception! .... I can't thank Olga (and the EOAB team for bringing her to me) enough for helping me to pull off my dream wedding. I was able to relax and enjoy our big day, knowing that she had everything under control. She even kept in contact after the wedding, wishing us a happy 1-month anniversary. She is honestly such a lovely person and an absolute pleasure to work with. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Olga!!

My only regret was not reaching out to Events on a Budget sooner. Daniella was our day of coordinator and she was absolutely amazing!!! She was so organized and sweet to not only myself and my husband, but everyone in our wedding party. There were several things I was stressed about on the day of the wedding but Daniella ensured that everything was taken care of and truly made our wedding day run seamlessly. I cannot say enough nice things about her and I will absolutely be referring EOAB to anyone I know planning a wedding!

When my husband and I got engaged we were overwhelmed with the wedding planning process UNTIL he found Events on a Budget. Melissa, our wedding planner, brought our vision to life and absolutely nailed every aspect of our wedding day. She sent us monthly task lists, came with us to every vendor appointment, kept us sane, and was always accessible and transparent. Throughout the planning process the dynamic with Melissa expanded beyond a business relationship to a more of a friendship. She made an effort to understand who we are as a couple and our style, ensuring that our wedding truly captured the essence of us.
My review can not be complete with out a huge shout out to Eudely. The floral arrangements at our wedding were truly a dream! I could instantly tell the passion and pride Eudely has in her work. Her floral work was above and beyond anything I had ever imagined for our wedding day. My bouquet was a work of art and all of the flowers were so fresh and absolutely stunning.
If you are newly engaged and don't know where to start or if your half way through and overwhelmed, book Events on a Budget!

Our venue coordinator recommended EOAB when we toured the space. Hiring EOAB was the best decision we made during our wedding planning. Melissa was so friendly, respectful, and professional. She's very knowledgeable and is always so honest about what would work and what would not. It's funny how sometimes I disagree with her but I ended up going with what she suggested. We had some last minute emergency with Miami weather and shipping (we are out of town) but Melissa took care of it. We also learned that Melissa was going through some body pain on the day of our wedding and she chose to stay until the wedidng was over. We were so touched by that and had so much respect for her. I highly recommend Melissa and her team. Thank you Melissa and Dani for making our wedding a fairytale! We love you!

I highly recommend EOAB . Melissa and her staff were very professional, knowledgeable and pleasant. They made my experience so much easier. They supported us along the way and only have good things to say about their business. Vendors were good, prices were reasonable and they had recommendations every time we requested a service they don’t provide. The day of the wedding everything run smoothly and they were on top of every detail.

I work as a project manager of sorts, so I am quite particular about planning and preparation, and I would recommend EOAB over & over. Events On A Budget (Melissa B, my planner) was absolutely incredible. Not only friendly and professional, but truly provided the ease and assurance I needed on my most special day. No task was too small or too big, and Melissa offered her expertise & opinions when needed, which really helped (especially given I was an out of town bride). Everything turned out wonderfully, and Melissa & her team were such great partners, I would highly recommend them. Thank you Melissa & Team!!!

Events On A Budget planned and coordinated my wedding, I cannot praise the MelissaS team enough. Melissa B. was the planner for our wedding, and it was so wonderful to have her on board! Besides being absolutely above and beyond at every task imaginable, Melissa is an unbelievably person, kind, and absolutely calming force of nature. We started planning our wedding at the end of 2019 and when we had to postpone not only once but twice due to the covid, the MelissaS team were extremely flexible, and they tried to accommodate to our unique situation. Everyone working on the day of the event seemed to be in good spirits, and that starts and ends with the attitude and personality of the wedding coordinator. Melissa B. was always very direct and honest in offering advice and guidance for certain parts of the wedding, which we greatly appreciated when our perfect day came together! We cannot thank her enough for making our wedding simply amazing.
Events On A Budget made it possible for us to have a wedding that was even better than we originally envisioned.

Soooo where do I begin ? In 2018 I found EOAB online and decided to book them from their reviews for our 2019 wedding. My husband and I ended up postponing the wedding for 2020 when the pandemic hit we had to postpone again. Time after time Melissa and her team checked up on my family and I and we’re patient with us trying to figure out a new date. Fast forward to our 2021 wedding date and I can’t thank them enough for all of their help the month leading up the wedding. Melissa B was my coordinator and made sure that everything went smoothly! She even helped me with picking out a few last minute vendors and communicating with them for me ! My wedding was a dream come true and I can’t thank EOAB enough!

I found the EOAB team by pure accident, and I now know it was really by the grace of God because I never could have accomplished the dream wedding I had without them! From start to finish these people were just spectacular at what they do. They truly made the experience as happy and stress-free as possible for me and my wedding turned out absolutely gorgeous. They were super friendly, VERY flexible, and had great recommendations when I was too indecisive or simply clueless on certain things. Their preparation tactics were so detailed but very "user friendly" for lack of a better term, and their execution on the wedding day was flawless. I am so lucky to have had them and would never have done it any other way. Hire them and you WON'T regret it! My wedding was a magical, romantic dream come true thanks to this company and I cannot thank them enough!

My husband and I are extremely grateful for Melissa and her team at EOAB. They turned our wedding idea into reality. My husband and I knew we wanted to have an at home reception. The idea of celebrating in our first home was what we always envisioned, intimate yet fun. However, we were still in the process of purchasing a home. Risky, I know, but Melissa did not seem fazed. EOAB helped us secure all the other details (catering, florals, tables, linens, etc.) while we worked on securing our home and reception location. In the end, everything came together perfectly. I am forever thankful to Melissa and EOAB for making my wedding magical.

I had multiple changes in the weeks leading up to the wedding DURING COVID and she was able to handle everything and even find me a DJ 24 hours before the wedding. I can't thank her enough. Would recommend 100 times over.

My husband and I couldn't have had a better time at out our wedding and I can genuinely say our guests felt the same. Surely there was no way of anticipating what the world had instored after our big day but we're so happy and know we're extremely lucky to have been able to celebrate our marriage.
Jehane and Melissa were absolutely great! I had many conversations with Jay leading up to the big day and she talked me off a cliff more times than I can count. The checklists and check-in meetings honestly made everything super simple and set up our expectations as we had some anxiety planning our wedding from a few states away. Overall everything was beautiful and all we could have asked for!
Days after our wedding we had to think hard and long about what went wrong or what could have been better. I think trying to come up with something is a testament to how wonderful everything truly was.
Our friends and family are STILL talking about our big day and how much fun they had. Thank you to the whole Events on a Budget team for making that all possible. We will forever be grateful! <3

Don’t let the name fool you! Melissa can plan from a little on the budget elopement to the biggest celebrity wedding! The only constant is her passion and dedication to the process and to make sure that you stick to that budget you have (small or large).
Melissa and her team of planners are absolutely amazing! They are experienced, professional, creative and knew how to cater to our every need. They were super flexible and accommodating, kept me organized and made the process completely stress free... the decor... OMG no words can describe how fantastic my wedding looked... they really delivered my dream wedding and my guests could not stop talking about it, they made sure I ate, I was relaxed and on time, I had time to enjoy and drink, I felt so pampered and spoiled... nothing but the best right here! We are forever grateful to Melissa and her team and recommend her to everyone looking to create their dream day!
