Everlasting Events

I never write reviews but Sarah at Everlasting Events was a waste of money and I want to help future brides/grooms from making the same mistake we did. Sarah was supposed to set up and take down our decor, which was in her job description. First, she didn’t even have all our stuff that I had labeled set up until right before the wedding and was talking to her assistant/texting instead of making sure everything was done. Then she had “packed” all our decor back up but we were missing all of our centerpieces, our arch flowers, and our cake toppers/extra cake. We had 50 people at our wedding and purchased a bigger cake to feed 70 people for leftovers and she did not have our cake packed up at the end of the night and I lost my cake toppers, one I had custom made of my dog. When contacting her about this the day after the wedding, she never answered and I never got anything back or any cake. It felt like once she had our money, which was a lot for the little that she did, she disappeared. We had our wedding at the Hilton Beachfront Resort & Spa and her company was recommended by the hotel which is why we booked her but she should not be recommended at all and we had told the hotel this for future weddings. Overall, our wedding was beautiful and all our vendors were amazing but we could have done everything ourselves without Sarah and it would have been done correctly, and have saved a lot of money. We also had only booked her for the day of the wedding so that’s all she had to take care of.

** This is a long one, but for future couples, PLEASE READ!! I HAVE RECEIPTS Giving this woman 1 star is even too high for her, considering after we paid her our $2500 deposit, she did literally nothing and disappeared. We hired this individual for her full services, Wedding Coordination, and Floral, and we were played for a fool by her. We met with her virtually a few times as we were an out-of-state couple back at the beginning of August. Within the last few months, she has done nothing and quickly ran off with our deposit, providing no resolution or explanation. She appeared to have decided to go even further and block my fiance's phone numbers and social media pages as we began our search for her. Our last interaction with her was in early September after multiple attempts were made back in August. In that previous interaction, she claimed she was in a car accident and that she would get back to us. SHE NEVER DID, even after multiple attempts and even getting our lawyer involved. Before anyone tries to give her credit and thinks she is telling the truth about her medical issues... she has been found out. My fiance reached out to her about hiring her for her services using another name and Google voice number to see if she in fact is a fraud, and she fell right into this trap, responded immediately, and tried selling us on the same package we already have with her. To boot, on her personal IG page she is showing off her cross-fit posts showing how healthy she in fact is. Sarah Wright, you are a woman and a vet-owned business. SHAME ON YOU!!! You are supposed to be providing couples with peace of mind when you are hired. You promised that many times on our initial calls with you. As for your contract with us, I'd like to let you know that you are in breach of our contract, and I can only assume many more couples from the looks of your ratings on this site. You should be ashamed of what you have done, taking people's money and thinking you can get away with it. As we have stated, I am lawyered up and have complete faith in my legal right to file what I can civilly and criminally to get my money back from you. *Side note: she has many different businesses and seems to have a few other LLCs DO YOUR HOMEWORK people. Look up the address she supplies on your contract because it is a UPS store, even without a PO Box number. I wish I could reach out to all the other couples who have been wronged by her and let them know they are not alone, and I am sorry they, too, have been going through this. The wedding industry is tight, so Sarah, you will be found out, and I believe you won't be able to continue this harmful and illegal behavior.

I hired Sarah a couple months ago. I paid the first payment of a couple thousand dollars, and then she completely ghosted me. Stay away from this fraudulent person…

We regret choosing Sarah as our wedding planner. Her absence on our wedding day was a huge letdown. Despite seeing her the night before, she failed to inform us that she wouldn't be attending, leaving her assistant (who tried her best given the circumstances) — with whom we’d had little-to-no communication — to manage things, resulting in a lack of coordination and mishaps like starting the cake cutting without the bride. Throughout the planning process, Sarah's lack of attention to detail and clarity added unnecessary stress. We often found ourselves uncertain about what tasks she was handling and what she expected from us, leading to multiple follow-ups to even get a straight answer from her. Moreover, Sarah's claim of offering flowers at “market rate” was misleading at best. The prices she charged were significantly higher than other vendors (~25%+ more expensive), making her supposed floral credit meaningless. Lastly, she never even followed up with us after our wedding to see how the event went, but I suppose that we should've expected this given her lack of communication and consideration throughout the process. While we appreciate her efforts, Sarah's overall lack of organization and communication made our wedding experience less enjoyable than it should have been. Your special day deserves better than her.
