Events On A Budget

ry about a thing and were attentive to any and all needs including our guests!

able to build a package to fit my needs. She was incredibly knowledgeable and able to figure out what I really needed. Her support in planning and on the day-of really made it a dream come true. Would highly recommend!

flexible when it came to outside vendors/items. They were also flexible with my husbands and my schedule. We have busy jobs and it was hard for us to go to meetings and be as involved as perhaps we would have wanted. They were hands on and helped us make timely decisions. Melissa was so sweet, always patient and kind, and she always make sure to reply to all my questions and concerns! To all of you brides out there: I thought I could make it cheaper without a planner. I drove myself crazy for a couple months researching, getting quotes, talking to vendors and other brides. Is not! It's stressful and time consuming. So many details go into a wedding you would probably miss (unless you know the business). Also, the days before the wedding are incredibly busy, you will need someone coordinating your event. Is the best way for you to enjoy it! This team is great! 100% recommended!

answered me promptly, was extremely accommodating and exceeded my expectations. You will not regret hiring them to execute your dream wedding. I used their florist eudely who was amazing, their cake vendor, catering company and planning services. They offer a variety of options for vendors depending on your budget. All the vendors I chose were excellent. I cant thank Jehane and the team enough for their hard work. They Day of my wedding jehane made sur eI had a drink In my hand and that my and my husband ate. It rained on the day of which delayed setup a bit but at the exact start time everything was complete. Thank you so much Jehane and EOAB!

ncluded in my package. She made my wedding a dream come true and I recommend them to everyone. The vendors included in my package were just spectacular, the food, flowers left everyone talking about it. If you need a wedding planner I would recommend them because they will make your dream day come true at an affordable price.

(Jay) and Eudelys are top notch. They made wedding planning seem so effortless, beautiful, and fun. I am forever thankful knowing that I am able to look back o my wedding day and know it was as beautiful and effortless because of EOAB. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't even think twice about using EOAB.

anning the event (thanks to Stacey), they suggested vendors although I ended up finding mostly my own but they coordinated well with them ahead of time and the day of the wedding and they helped me achieve the look I wanted for my flowers, reception table setups and decor. On the day of, i had a thorough timeline that helped everyone be on time and my day went as amazing as I have envisioned it. All went so well that I would do it all over again! The flowers and decorations Eudely from EOB put together were phenomenal, fresh and just as i wanted them. Melissa and Sylvia stepped in when my planner (Stacey) moved on and they helped me finalize the details in the last few months and they did such a professional, thorough and organized job. Their organization, attention to details, good listeners and always looking for my best interest helped me relax prior and during my day because i knew i was in good hands. On the day of, Sylvia was so sweet to help with my dress bussle, caring my belongings, setting up perfectly my first look with my husband, she took care of bringing all our belongings to our room at the end of the night so we could enjoy our after party, she left wedding cake for us in our hotel rm freezer and even cleaned our penthouse a bit so we return to a clean place. Can’t thank them and recommend them enough! Melissa, the owner is SO passionate about what she does it comes through in every way! Very thankful for this awesome team!!

she made sure everything went smooth and easy for us throughout the process and the day of the wedding. For reference, we live and work in the NYC metro area, and wanted to have our wedding in Miami where we used to live. We hired their team for the full wedding planning service since we were out of town and needed extra help gathering vendors, etc. Jehane was very responsive to all of our requests and must haves—offering numerous options for us when we weren't satisfied. She was always pleasant, calm, and easy to work with. Weddings do not go without hiccups here and there, but they were very professional in the way they handled everything and I couldn't recommend Jehane or the Events on a Budget team more. The one thing I recommend, especially if you are out of town; if you have something very specific in mind definitely let them know, however, I would trust her team and their recommendations because vendors can be tough to work with. We used a mix of their vendors and ours. We loved their in-house florist, and we used all of their linens and tables/chairs. We wound up using Chris, with Delicious Catering, and I highly recommend them. Their bartenders were top-notch, the food was excellent, and all-around everyone loved them. A bake shop we used was Fireman Derek's bakery in Wynwood. AMAZING cakes and pies, and a very affordable option for dessert. For makeup we used Gina Dearing and she was fabulous. Lenisse photography (another recommendation from Jehane), was incredible and she has the best eye for capturing the special moments. Again, we can't thank Events on a Budget enough. Thank you again to Jehane, Melissa, and their incredible team.

erything turned out. Jehane is the planner I worked with. She was there from the beginning of the process. Very attentive, quick to respond to emails/texts, has great suggestions, super nice. Day of waiting she was essential to Minimizing stress. She understood my vision from the beginning and it showed. She took care of it all. She set aside a plate of food during cocktail hour for me and my hubby to enjoy and brought us drinks. She was on top of everything leading up to the wedding and day of. The next day when I was frantic trying to figure out where the marriage license had gone, I had reached out to her and sure enough she knew down to the exact bag where it had been placed. Even during the process I was already recommending Jehane and Events on a Budget to anyone and everyone. Such a joy to work with.

planning this because we live in Orlando and we were having our wedding in our hometown, Miami. However, Events on a Budget put our mind to ease and reassured us that they could get the job done even if we were 400 miles away. Communication between them was quick and efficient. We did meetings in Miami, on the phone, through emails and got everything done in a timely fashion despite not living in Miami and being available 24/7. We had the best wedding ever! The reception was decorated beautifully and the food was amazing. My husband and I as well as our guest enjoyed every minute of it! Thank you sooo much Jehane, Melissa and Events on a Budget. I would recommend you guys to anyone wanting to plan a wedding in Miami. Mr. and Mrs. Saul

and the reception. Jehane helped me with the timeline for that day, coordinated with our vendors, helped us organize the different events we wanted during the reception, helped with decorations, and kept everything moving. Hiring Events on a Budget was the best decision we took to make sure we didn't have to worry about anything on our event, and they are the best!!!

at quality! We received lots of compliments on our flower arrangements and the DJ. Overall we had a perfect day thanks to EOB!

ll as one go to person. Stacey was great to work with and very organized. She let me know what steps to take at what time and really made the wedding planning process easy and not stressful. I would highly recommend EOAB to anyone!

ically impossible to give us everything the planner had promised us. Needless to say, when we arrived to our first meeting with EOAB we were feeling very discouraged. It wasn't long into the meeting, before Stacey changed our entire mindset and helped us feel excited once again. EOAB was absolutely amazing. They are organized, patient, detailed oriented and so loving to everyone who walks in. Whether you have a huge budget or just an "average" one like us I highly recommend all brides reach out to EOAB. Thank you Stacey for everything you did for us...from the moment we stepped into the office to the moment you handed us our goodie bag filled with treats before leaving to the hotel. You ladies are wonderful!

truly no words to describe my gratitude for Stacey and the Events on a Budget team and the incredible service provided to us. The first few minutes I talked to Stacey, I knew she was the one (corny love at first sign joke, I know). She immediately understood my vision, started sharing ideas and was simply easy to talk to – I felt like we had been friends for a long time. Throughout the planning process she was detailed, calm, and guided me through tough decisions with ease and grace. She was always available and always knew how to approach whatever situation was at hand. The day of the wedding, Stacey handled EVERYTHING. She was superwoman and did it with a smile on her face allowing me to sit back and enjoy the night we worked so hard to plan. Everything was perfect, my vision came to life and it would not have been possible without Stacey and EOAB. Stacey is beyond exceptional at her job, there were times when the stress of wedding planning became too much for me and her ability to calmly create perspective and her guidance throughout the process was a true Godsend. If you are looking for a wedding planner for any part or stage of your wedding Stacey and EOAB is the best of the best. I would rate them 10 stars if I could. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all that you did for us! Lauren & Ken

with me to ensure she knew exactly what I was envisioning. To be honest, I'm no flower expert so wasn't quite sure, but her arrangements exceeded any and all of my expectations! She was very conscious of my budget (thankfully living up to the company's name) and was able to go above and beyond any other vendors I had talked to. I'm so pleased with how everything turned out and would totally recommend her and the company for any wedding needs!

last 2 weeks prior to the big day. Not to mention they are SO on top of things that day so I got to lay back and just enjoy those hours of getting ready with my family, friends and flower girls. It really lets you be in the moment so if you are thinking about it or on the edge, I highly recommend a day of coordinator, or the full scope with their team. I never spent a minute without a drink in my hand and she was so on top of every little detail that night. I actually had a blast and enjoyed my wedding which I've heard many brides don't get to say!!! Thank you Stacey!

w anyone in Miami. All our worries went away after reading all the reviews and speaking to EOAB on the phone. Even though our initial meeting was over the phone we felt so comfortable and at ease to have them plan our wedding. They continued to exceed our expectations and the reviews we read. After meeting in person, we couldn't be more excited for the day. Everyone at EOAB genuinely wanted to get to know US and what was important to us. The whole process was so easy and people still ask how we found all our vendors. EOAB had amazing vendors suggestions and we used them all, even though we weren't required. Many companies out there that have a packaged deal make you use their vendors. EOAB works with you and is flexible to your needs. However, I would recommend using their vendors as it was so seamless. From the florist, cake, linens, furniture rentals, lighting, tent rentals, transportation, photography and catering, it was so special and wouldn't change a thing. Despite our wedding venue being outside and January in Miami usually having perfect weather, the day before and the day after was sunny and warm, the day of our wedding it poured!!! Melissa and the team made us feel more at ease and pulled off what couldn't have been a more intimate and perfect day. EOAB had done many many weddings at this venue and worked with the team to make our day justvrught. The day was so special and we seriously couldn't thank you enough from the bottom of our hearts. I would recommend EOAB to anyone. I wish he was our Rabbi in DC! Thank you again for everything!

day for my husband and I and at the perfect price and I priced just about every where in Miami. The vendors they use are top notch. Their florist is the absolute best and she is so sweet. I used Ralph's Catering and everyone is still talking about how amazing the food was. My planner was Stacey and I could not have picked a better planner. She was kind and honest and I had such a nice time going to vendor meetings with her. She made the whole process easy and perfect. So thankful for Events on a Budget. Thank you so much.

nal...we could not have done it without her! Our caterer (Ralph...amazing food!) and floral designer (Eudely) were outstanding. We used the 'Wedding in a Box' program and we highly recommend it. Great job and thank you to Events on a Budget for making it a PERFECT day! You can't get better than this!!!

aw for pop up weddings. From the moment I contacted Events on a budget, they were extremely professional. Since I was a little skeptical about the price ($4500.00 starting price) and how soon I had decide (I booked at the end of August and my wedding was on 11/5/16), I was able to go to their office and speak to Jehane directly, she showed me the package and picture of the decorations and the cake and flower selection I was going to get to choose from. I felt very comfortable and booked my wedding. The wedding process was so EASY! I only had to worry about my dress, jewelry, hair & make-up, bridesmaid dresses, grooms & groomsmen tux and a few little touches I wanted to add to my wedding, EOAB took care of everything else. During the months before my wedding I would get an email about once a week to choose certain items like cake, flowers, ETC. I would also email my questions and they would always respond very quickly. They also schedule a day for us to be able to taste the caterer's food, see how my wedding would be decorated and to meet with Melissa the event planner. The caterer they used for my wedding was amazing, his food was absolutely delicious, I was happy I wasn't getting banquet hall food quality. I was able to bring my mom and fiancé to the tasting, and they loved it. I was worried about my mom more so because she was VERY skeptical because of the price, and she absolutely loved it! The day of my wedding everything went so smoothly. I was the early morning wedding and we had brunch. The ceremony was so beautiful! I was so impressed, there were fresh flower arrangements everywhere & reception was beautiful as well. Everyone enjoyed themselves and I had a beautiful wedding for less than $5000!

wedding coming to life and will make sure the night is flawless and effortless ,so you and yours can be stress free. They went as far as making sure my husband and I never had to go to the bar and even had all our personal belongings packed up in a car ready for the end of the night! I want to thank all the girls at EOAB from the bottom of my heart for being there for me through every step of the way, never missing a beat & making my wedding night perfect!

and beyond to make sure all of our guests were taken care of and every detail was picture-perfect. I cannot thank Melissa and the whole team enough for making our day amazing!!​ ​

like, what we wanted and most importantly, our budget. Unfortunately, our planner parted ways with the company in the middle of our process, but Melissa Caceres and her team stepped up to the plate and assured me that all would be fine, and it was! Tatiana was assigned as my coordinator and she did a FANTASTIC job at ensuring that all of our needs were met, our communication with the event company and vendors was clear, and the day of the wedding went incredibly smooth! All of the vendors were extremely professional and worked amazingly to bring our visions to life. Eudely, the florist, worked around our budget and STILLmanaged to create the ambiance of a million dollar wedding. The cake vendors at Todo Dulce made our cake exactly how we wanted it and our guests couldn't stop commenting on how moist and good all of the flavors tasted. Overall, I would definitely recommend Events On a Budget for anyone looking for wedding planning services that stay true to your vision and budget as well!!

wedding. We met Cristina a month before our wedding for the first time and it was a pretty nice appointment although it felt weird to be meeting our planner one month before our wedding to go over 3 hours of details. The real disappointment came on my wedding day. Cristina did a very poor job. She forgot to bring our flowers from the florist so that my bridesmaids and I could get our pictures taken with our bouquets. I had to call her and have her bring all the flowers from Key Biscayne to the hotel in Coconut Grove at the last minute. Also during the ceremony she was no where to be found. At the very end of the ceremony when it came to the breaking of the glass there was no glass. She had forgotten to bring it to the ceremony. My brother-in-law who was reciting the explanation of the Breaking of the Glass was embarrassed and so were the groom and myself. Cristina was just not prepared. Lastly and what I feel ruined the memory of my wedding day was the fact that she wasn't there for the picture taking right after the ceremony. I provided her with a list of ten photos I wanted, like she requested. The list included my family and my husbands family. We only ended up getting pictures with my family bc my husbands family had gone up to the cocktail hour which was quite a walk from the ceremony site. So bc she wasn't there organizing it we don't have ANY photos with the groom's family. No memory of them even being there pretty much. The saddest part is we don't have any pictures with my husband's grandmother. She has a hard time walking and by the time she reached the cocktail hour area she was unable to come back for pictures. I waited a few months to write this review bc I wasn't sure I wanted to do so. I guess you get what you pay for.

with her we knew she would be amazing. She was very organized, professional, but also super sweet and genuine. We felt that she really cared about making our wedding day truly special, and it showed throughout our experience with her. Ours was a DIY wedding and we took on all of the planning responsibilities over the course of one year. It was rewarding but also really exhausting! Tatiana made sure that our month before the wedding was stress-free and she took care of everything for us, which really allowed us to enjoy the days leading up to the wedding. On our wedding day Tatiana did EVERYTHING, from helping troubleshoot setup issues, to making sure our guests were comfortable, to blotting our faces before pictures (it was so hot!), to making sure we had a drink in our hands the entire time. Thank you so much for going above and beyond, Tatiana. You did so much to make our wedding beautiful and unforgettable, and we are forever grateful! Book a day of coordinator with Events on a Budget, you will not regret it, and request Tatiana!

ing, Cristina made sure to keep everything running smoothly and she was an amazing help to make our wedding wonderful.

evening. I would highly recommend them for any event. If you want your dreams to come true, Events on a Budget is for you!

ame says, really does work with you on your budget. I tried to get some vendors on my own and thought it would cost me less, boy was I wrong. The prices i was able to get thru events on a budget were unbelievable. You just have to trust them, they know what they are doing. We went with the wedding in the box package, which I would highly recommend, specially if you are having a big wedding like we did (200 guest). Really takes off lot of stress out of planning. Our planner Cristy was super knowledgable, very helpful with ideas and things that could help stay in budget, really paid attention to what I wanted, very patient and reassuring. We had our wedding at the beautiful Spanish monastery and i was glad that they were already familiar with the venue. Cristy was great into staying in touch with them, and did marvelous the day of the wedding. She had a timeline for everyone, contacted every vendors I had booked outside of my package with them, coordinated everything perfectly. Throughout the night she kept checking on us, asking if we needed anything and making sure we stayed on schedule with everything. Their florist, Eudely is also great. She is very nice and understanding of not wanting to go overboard with flowers specially with pricing and really helped picking the best for my vision and budget. I made some last minute changes after my floral sample meeting and she definitely delivered the day of my wedding, everything was beautiful. If you want an AMAZING, organized, budget-friendly, stress-free wedding day, events on a budget is the one to pick. i would highly recommend them. Than you Cristy and the team for making my dream wedding come true :-)

was also very quick to respond to all my emails and made the whole wedding process smooth. Thank you for making my wedding dream come true! :)

uld have dreamed of. She went above and beyond to ensure that our day was exactly what we needed. She transformed our entire experience. I am so grateful for her and wish I could do it all over again just to keep working with her. Xoxo

They really work within you budget and give you as much or as little control over every aspect as you want. Their packages are easy to customize and they really provide the best prices you will find anywhere! Trust me we did a lot of research and already had prices to compare for all our services by the time we went to Events on a Budget. Wish we had just started with them. My wedding planner and day of coordinator Cristy (Cristina Pizarro) was amazing and I don't know how I would have done it without her! She really went above and beyond to ensure that everything went as smoothly as possible on my wedding day no matter what surprises were thrown at her! If you are a busy, working professional trying to plan a wedding as well like I was, I strongly recommend a planner! It will help you keep your sanity lol. Ask for Cristy, she is awesome! And if you want to get the best prices from vendors with as little stress as possible I highly recommend Events on a Budget!

ner, but working with Olga made me realize just how many factors are involved and how much it means to have someone reliable and talented to make preparations a worry-free process. Olga is very personable and easy to work with. She's on top of everything, as is the rest of the staff there at Events on a Budget. She lined us up with premier vendors but made it very reasonable cost-wise. She's flexible, and she doesn't get upset or bothered by receiving tons and tons of emails, texts, phone calls from the bridge and groom during preparations. Highly recommend!

he wedding Olga and her assistants were very professional and very hospitable. They went above and beyond to cater to our needs throughout the entire event. I would recommend this company to anyone seeking a wedding planner for their wedding. Again, Thank you so much!!

I will never forget...from the beginning till the end...unforgettable". Another wrote this: "It was very beautiful but more it was a relaxed and happy wedding, your coordinators did a great job". I have received many wonderful comments. I could not have done it without Event on a Budget.

came in. Even though it was “day of” coordination, we met Olga way in advance and were in constant contact with her. She was always so sweet and patient. Finally the month of my wedding, she was on top of EVERYTHING! The big day came and went and I honestly could not have asked for a more perfect, organized, stress-free day. She was there at my reception venue since early on in the day; Every single tiny detail, Olga took care of! And it all looked beautiful. She also made sure I got to eat and enjoy dinner, and always made sure I had a glass of champagne in my hand :) My mother and I truly got to enjoy every moment of the night thanks to her. Thanks so much to EOB and Olga !

d good, my dad got his gluten-free plate, and that everything . I am so glad she was there to handle everything, especially the little things that go wrong. Our photobooth didn't show up and she dealt with them, calling them to see where they were and making sure they said they would refund us the money. We absolutely loved the in-house florist as well. She was great to work with, had lots of good ideas and was able to find the exact flower I wanted for my bouquet (even though neither of us had ever seen it before!) Both of these ladies were professional and courteous everytime we spoke to them. I highly recommend this company!

a Budget actually works around your budget. I could not believe the quotes I was getting from other planners. We chose to go with a wedding in a box package and we are so glad we did. Events on a Budget has relationships with all of their vendors therefore you get great service at a amazing price. There is no way we would have been able to afford all that we wanted if we did not go through Events on a Budget. Their florist is especially amazing! We also loved our photographer Alex from Soul Echo Studios! Melissa helped with the planning process the whole way through and responded in a timely manner to all of our many emails. We would have never thought of all the things she did or come up with a timeline without her help. She was amazing the day of too. We highly recommend Events on a Budget for your wedding planning and highly recommend the wedding in a box package.

I did without Events On A Budget. The day of my wedding I was able to enjoy every single moment and detail because I trusted Melissa to handle everything else...When I first walked into my reception hall and saw every tiny detail come to life, I was speechless. Everything was absolutely more gorgeous than I expected. If something did go wrong that day I would not know it because Events On a Budget made sure that my husband and I had the time of our lives!!! I would hire them again in a heartbeat :)

all of my questions, provided an excellent value with their package, their vendors were all great, professional and on top of all of the details. I really did not have to worry about anything. Our wedding took place at our home and it poured that day, I wasn't there, but I know everything was under control because of EOAB and it was absolutely beautiful when I arrived. I could not have envisioned a better evening, it was everything we wanted and more thanks to EOAB. I would trust this team with any special event!!!

y-of coordinator might do (that was the service I was interested in) but she gave me a detailed list of all of the services included. I had no idea how important these services would become as the wedding day approached. EOAB was proactive in contacting me (something very necessary and helpful) to see how planning was going and to set up an appointment to review my final contracts. They also answered all of those little questions a bride has about her wedding day, which was so reassuring. It is a great value, as the package also included the rehearsal. The day of the wedding, I felt like the investment in the planner really paid off, as she took care of everything - details I hadn't even thought of! It was great to have someone there to help with setting up, timing, guest transition, monitoring the vendors, etc. EOAB was in highly responsive and made sure I was doing okay throughout the day. And, as it turned out, when I forgot my garter, the coordinator had an extra one for me in her emergency kit - it really saved the day! I highly recommend EOAB - they are professional and worth every penny!

L seemed trying at times but our wedding planner, Sofia De La Rosa, went above and beyond to make certain we were on schedule and all of our answers and concerns were taken care of. We loved the fact that everything was included in the package pricing (varies on personal preferences and budget). The quality of services included such as the videographer, photographer, DJ and especially florist (Eudely) were great. I would recommended them to anyone looking for a stress-free wedding experience!

y weird questions and always responding in reasonable time. She was also very patient with me and my mother in law who had crazier questions than me. Through EOAB I booked flowers, catering, cake, DJ, venue necessities (chairs, tables, plates, etc.) and photography. I was dissatisfied with some things but they had nothing to do with Melissa or her services so that is why EOAB gets 5 stars from me :)

ns for several vendors including our florist, photographer, makeup & hair artists and officiant. Each of these vendors that Sofia recommended ended up being excellent! My husband and I have nothing but positive remarks on all accounts. Sofia was extremely responsive and would reply back to my emails and calls in a timely manner - I never felt like I was waiting a long time to hear back from her - and there were LOTs of emails throughout the process! I had the pleasure of meeting with Sofia in-person on a few occasions during our wedding planning as well, and she was organized, professional and fun to be around! She definitely helped to relieve much of the stress associated with planning a destination wedding! Even our bridal party & other guests remarked on how great Sofia is and how on top of everything she was - making the rehearsal and the wedding day run so smoothly. When my husband and I reflect back on our wedding, Sofia stands out in a major way. We could not have done it all, successfully, without her!!!!

have to do for a destination wedding. But Oh My! when I discovered the events on a budget website I think I screamed and did the running man all at the same time, simply because I knew that feeling of being overwhelmed would no longer be an issue, hallelujah! :) I must say from planning in the infancy stages until the day of, Melissa guided me the whole way through. Being a very indecisive person, super busy with my graduate studies, and to top it off living in a different state, her patience and ability to streamline all of the wedding options, rather that throwing 5 million options at me at once, was super helpful. But I must say best part of all, is that she was able to transform all that I envisioned my wedding to be into a beautiful reality....uhh and all within a reasonable budget! I wanted a wedding overlooking water that was vintage glam inspired, and more importantly, a reception atmosphere where our family could let loose and dance the night away. Undoubtedly, she helped me achieve all of those goals, and a bunch of extras too! Thank you Melissa for helping us make this part of hubby and I's life journey together the most memorable moment ever! Anyone having doubts concerning hiring a wedding planner, especially as it pertains to financial reasons, seek Events on a Budget out before making that final decision...it will so be worth it!

ddings and change things to make them unique. She went to every vendor meeting with me. She planned an itinerary. Everything you could possibly imagine you having to do yourself the last two weeks of the wedding she had covered! On the day of the wedding, if anything went wrong, I don't know about it because it either didn't or she handled it and didn't tell me (all of these are good things). The family and guests loved her. She brought us drinks and food throughout the night. She packed us a going away box with cake & milk. :) If you don't think you can afford a planner (like I didn't), think again! Events on a Budget has its "wedding in a box" that includes Melissa's planning services. You give her a budget and she will plan your wedding. I am SO happy with my choice!

ping with the timeline (critical), suggesting vendors (loved who she recommended), following up with vendors, keeping me organized, managing all our “props” (like champagne flutes), and making sure everyone was where they were supposed to be. Sofia also went above and beyond. She was constantly checking with me during the event and making whatever I wanted happen. She also took care of my husband and I by making sure we ate (you forget to do that) and making sure that we had everything we needed. I was happy and relaxed, because I knew that Sofia was on top of things and that is worth more than I can express. Her personality is just perfect, because she is strong and demanding (so I didn't have to be), but sweet and funny. It was a joy to have worked with her and I highly recommend that you hire her from Events on a Budget, because having her around will make your wedding seamless and even more enjoyable.

experienced a death in the family 4 days prior to our wedding and if it weren't for her help and assistance during that time I don't believe our special day would have run as smoothly as it did. During such a difficult time, having Belyse on our side allowed us to have peace of mind as we stepped away from the wedding details and focused on our family. Words cannot begin to describe how grateful we are to her for that. Events on a budget was the best money ever spent!!!!

have done it without her.

d a tear. Words can't describe how grateful we are for all Mleissa has done. She brought our visions to life and helped make our dreams come true. She is truly amazing, to say the least. I would have probably gone nuts if I had to orchastrate the day of my wedding. She managed to pull everything together and made it happen. I appreciate all that goes into putting a wedding toegther, and what sets Melissa apart from the rest is she really cares about her clients. She pays attention to detail and wants you to have the best day you of your life. She is a genuine person that has a passion for what she does, and this all shows in her work. Every question or concern I had, she would reply within a few hours or less. She was always there for us. It's one thing to hire someone to plan your wedding, but it's another to hire someone that cares about your wedding. Melissa is that person who cares. We love her and will forever be her biggest fan!

as able to understand my gibberish and provide flowers of my dreams! The place looked amazingly with all the different flowers and flower arrangements. Everyone was amazed at how breathtaking the wedding was. My wedding felt like a dream.

een... :-) I did a lot of research before making my decision on a wedding planner and package. I wanted a beautiful and elegant but fun wedding - all on a reasonable budget. That's exactly what EOB provided. I had a specific vision for everything from the flowers to the table settings to the music, and they made every single detail a reality. My package included catering, linens, flowers, DJ, cake, videographer and wedding planning. The bottom line was that the fee was unbeatable. Olga and Melissa replied to every single one of my many e-mails with questions ranging from silly to elaborate. They were there every step of the way. The day of the wedding, Olga was INCREDIBLE. She took charge and made sure everything went smoothly... and that my champagne glass was always full and I was a happy (and well fed) bride. Everything was "to the T". I was in awe with my wedding... in large part thanks to the EOB team. I'd recommend to everyone. On a site note - the flowers were especially amazing. Eudely (the in house florist for EOB) is incredible. I was completely in love with my flowers (bouquet, centerpieces, cake flowers). The price was so reasonable for what I received. And they're all the sweetest people you'd ever work with.

nd Olga, all of my anxieties disappeared. Olga is so pleasant and easy to work with, I felt like I was planning my wedding with one of my girlfriends. My Fiance and I actually looked forward to each and every meeting with her. It takes a special type of person to take control of the "Three Ring Circus" that weddings often become, and the ladies of EOAB are all that and more!

did everything she could to help me when I was in a bind (many times!). Her recommended vendors were all fantastic! She even played part-time therapist, and I am so grateful for the personal advice she gave me...words could never adequately express my gratitude. She dealt with my 'zilla moments so well despite getting/being pregnant, and enlisted the wonderful Sofia to help whenever she was unable. Melissa & Sofia helped my wedding go off without a hitch, and were so strong and calm in my moments of extreme anxiety. They even dressed up our bridal suite, the cherry on top of the wedding cake:). This group is so dedicated to what they do, you can tell each and every one of them loves their job. Would recommend Events on a Budget to ANYONE planning a wedding!!

endors that made our wedding come together flawlessly. I worked with Sofia who was amazing. She handled everything the day of and i had absolutely no stress to deal with. All of my married friends kept telling me to prepare myself for a potential disaster because "something always goes wrong" but nothing went wrong on our wedding day. Everything was just right and things moved along as planned. My (now) husband told me about all of the chaos that went on behind the scenes that he and Sofia kept me in the dark about and handled themselves (thankfully because i would have lost it). Everything was beautiful and it was so great, knowing nothing about weddings, to have a pro to get answers from. Sofia attending the vendor meetings with us and was able to offer us advice on what was going to look nice, or what not to splurge on. We are both so happy with the service we received and for such an amazing price. My husband keeps telling everyone that our wedding was the best day of his life, making me a very happy wife :)

, flowers, uplighting, transportation. everything!! I couldn't be happier with my decision. I met with a few before I decided on them and I am absolutely positive I chose the BEST there is out there!! You will not be disappointed. The owner Melissa is such a sweetheart. By the end of my wedding planning I felt like we had known each other for years!!! Their vision and input was invaluable. I truly felt like the world's most stress-free bride ever. I would without a doubt hire them. My wedding would definitely not have been the same without them!!!

as I wanted, tables, chairs, linen, caterer, DJ, photographer, videographer, flowers, cake, etc, etc, etc. A++

s milk and cake to take home for the wedding night =) If I have one recommendation for any bride to be, don't just get a wedding planner, get Melissa! I wasn't sure I wanted a wedding planner in the beginning, but as the wedding approached I realized that I needed someone to set-up the little details, so I contacted Melissa, I cannot even begin to say enough thanks to her! She went above and beyond all expecations for what I thought a wedding planner does!

r side. This team is amazing and i cant thank them enough. I recommend them to anyone! they made this girl's dreams a reality. Love you guys! xoxo Elizabeth J

gave me Tylenol straight from her purse, and the list goes on and on... She was everywhere doing everything so that we could enjoy our day. She contacted all our vendors the week of. She confirmed everything including that all the vendors were paid in full before the wedding. I could write a long essay about how great of a job she did. My husband and I were thoroughly satisfied.

several shows and met alot of people but they just stood out to me. The girls were so nice to me and very informative. They also had reasonable prices which helped alot. I met with Olga shortly after for my initial consultation and she was very nice and really helped me with all of my questions and concerns. She met with me about 1 month before the wedding and went over EVERYTHING. She was there for me with any questions or concerns I had throughout the entire time since hiring her. The day of the wedding she made sure my vision came to life, that we stayed on schedule, that my husband and I ALWAYS had a drink in our hand, and that we actually ate some food! If I wouldn't have had her there I probably would have lost my mind! Even when our signature purple drink was made blue by the bartender she made sure to address it right away! Thank you Olga and Events On A Budget for everything!

hly reviewed Events on a Budget. I met with Melissa (owner) and Olga (my wedding coordinator) and after our first meeting I was sold. I received a customized wedding in a box package which included their preferred vendors. The quote was a number that actually made since (finally!) Throughout the course of the year I must have changed my mind 100 times on every aspect of the wedding (venue location, color of flowers, type of transportation). Each time both Olga and Melissa were very understanding and made the change happen. The week of my wedding I had a lot of anxiety. There were sooo many small details to close out...but then again I'm a control freak. The day of my wedding everything worked out flawlessly with Olga as my day of planner. She did not miss a beat and had every detail lined up as we discussed. I could not be more happy with my wedding and Events on a Budget. I highly recommend them to any bride with small or large budget to throw a flawless event.

indispesable to us and I would highly recommend her.

amazing vendors, kept me on budget (which was a really difficult job! lol), and guided me through my confusion, frustration and (frequent) bouts of indecision. I cannot say enough about them as people and planners. The day of the wedding Sofia made everything flow so smoothly she was like a magical fairy floating around making everything perfect. Hiring Events on a Budget was THE best decision ever (well other than saying yes to the most amazing man in the world :)

s with Events on a Budget on The Knot and after reading a few reviews, we decided to contact her. I sent Melissa an e-mail late one weekday night, not expecting her to answer for at least a few days (believe it or not, some vendors never called me back even 11 months after contacting them, lol). But she called me back right away, we chatted about what I wanted, I sent her some photos and she had a quote to me within probably two hours. I was so amazed by her level of dedication and professionalism that we booked her services shortly after. We started with her "Wedding in a Box" package and were able to upgrade items that we wanted to spend a little more on. She has AMAZING vendors that she works with -- DJ (Vision DJs), photographer (Ivan Apfel Photography), florist (in-house), caterer (Catering Concepts) and cake vendor (I think it's called Sugar Shack?). Melissa's in-house florist was AMAZING. There was a point during my wedding ceremony where I zoned out because I was looking at the beautiful arrangements she made for the church. My bouquet was beautiful and my bridesmaids bouquets were exactly what I envisioned. I also have to emphasize what an ANGEL Melissa is. Someone in a review below said she was a "guardian angel" and was great at putting out fires. AGREED. There were two points during my reception when I, who had chosen a corset dress (bad idea), almost passed out. And Melissa popped out of nowhere with her "concoction" (OJ, sugar and sprite) that would help get my blood sugar back up. Saved the day... twice. Like our photographer, I knew she was there, but she was never in my face. My husband and I were able to have the time of our lives without feeling like we were being bothered. And at the end of the night when I finally stopped to think ("Where's my bouquet?"), Melissa again popped out of nowhere (where DOES she come from? Lol) to tell me everythingw as packed up and ready to go in the car we had designated for all the gifts and items left over from the reception. Not enough wonderful words in my vocabulary to describe how great Melissa is. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. Expect a call when we renew our vows in 10 years and I want another party! ;-)

h more. Both Melissa and Olga were amazing at recommending vendors, working out the details and tying up the loose ends. Our wedding day was perfect! Olga and Sofia took care of everything and everyone so that we could all enjoy the party! Thank you! Thank you!
