GABRIELA SOUSA EVENTS

e vendor. She is always calm, always positive, and super organized paying attention to every detail. She will remember things you told her months ago! She is super well respected in the industry among vendors, everyone knows her and has great things to say. If anything went wrong on our wedding day ( that we could finally safely have in January) we did NOT know about it! She is a true professional, on top of her game, and amazing human. Her assistant who helped on the day of was also great. You can stop looking for a wedding planner and just book GSE, you will be in incredible hands!

e. She was essential in coordinating with all our 25(!!!) vendors, helping everywhere on the wedding day and making sure everything ran on time. She thought of everything I didn't even know I needed and we 1000% recommend Gabby and her team if you want a seamless and stress free wedding day. Thank you Gabriela Sousa Events for everything!

rough COVID restrictions and had many helpful suggestions. Our micro-wedding was the best day ever and we didn't have to worry about a single thing on our wedding day. Thank you so much Gabriela! - The Elmans

for month-of-coordination but when COVID-19 hit and we had to change our plans, Gabby was very hands-on helping coordinate a new date with all of our vendors. Fast forward to the end of summer and with COVID still in sight, we had to change our wedding plans AGAIN, and Gabby was there again to take this stress away from us and handled all the vendor communication, helping us avoid any rebooking fees, all we had to do was sign the updated vendor agreements. Thank you so much Gabby, we cannot wait to celebrate in February!!

eyond to ensure nothing less than perfection. If you would like to not only enjoy your special day but the epic planning journey, then you've made it to the right planner! Congratulations & Happy Planning !!!!

er. Attention to EVERY. SINGLE. LITTLE. DETAIL. Always had an answer to EVERY question we had. Was on call every minute of the month leading up to wedding, to the morning after my wedding. I can honestly say I had ZERO stress on my wedding day, and it was all thanks to Gabi and her amazing team! My vendors had nothing but positive things to say about her communication and organizational skills. The best way to describe Gabi is like a Fairy God mother. She made me feel so at ease and honestly just so loved an beautiful all day. I could go on FOREVER about how EVERYONE needs to book GSE for their wedding planning/coordinating. I would recommend her a million times over! You truly get what you pay for, and you get nothing short of perfection working with Gabi!

ran smoothly throughout the night. Everyone had a wonderful experience. Thanks, Gabriela (my fellow turtle lover)!

king back I wouldn’t go without Gabi!

t with me to my dress fitting, my final floral meeting and a walkthrough required by my venue. She even met with my photographer and videographer before the wedding to discuss the timeline and walk through the venue to select the best photo spots. Her assistants were godsent on the wedding day, always there when I needed with a mint before I walked down the aisle and handing me tissues after my first look with my father. If you are looking for a coordinator, Gabby is the best! Hire her!

with undying loyalty. Gabriela is in my top list of favorite planners and I'm so happy we crossed paths! I've had the pleasure of working with Gabriela in a number of weddings throughout the years and it's always a huge sigh of relief when I find out that she's the planner. She is such a joy to be around, work with, and every wedding has been smooth sailing with her from beginning to end. I'm thankful to know Gabriela as a vendor, but even more so to be able to now call her a dear friend of mine. If you're looking to relieve yourself of any headaches, stress, or issues on your wedding day, Gabriela is THE one for you!

the day of the wedding and even had an extra bow tie for my cousin who forgot his! She was awesome!

ssed all my T's and dotted all my i's, there was still so much that Gabi helped me with the few weeks before the wedding. There were some very specific questions my vendors were asking that I wasn't sure how to answer or what the best decisions would be, Gabi had great suggestions and really clarified what worked best for our day and our venue. My mother and grandmother were DRIVING ME CRAZY those last few weeks leading up to the wedding, and Gabi definitely acted as a buffer and addressed their concerns so I wouldn't feel so overwhelmed. On the day of, everything ran so smoothly!!! It was the best day of my life!!! We chose a venue that required us to find all our own vendors, so without someone coordinating everyone efficiently, I don't know what it would've turned out like. Gabi and her team did amazing!

n on time and smoothly. She steamed my dress to perfection when we were having trouble, she called out names at family photos perfectly, she bustled my dress, and was always right beside me offering a helping hand. When we had a slight hiccup at our first look location (some angry tenants) she jumped in and quickly found a solution.She was positive, professional, and like having a best friend beside you. If you are hesitant about booking, don’t be! You are in great hands with Gabriela.

sts and other vendors also commented on how wonderful she was! With so much planning to do leading up to the day and a million things to do that weekend, we really could not have done it without her help. We were so happy to have had her as part of our big day!

he even took on planning my rehearsal dinner! Life saving... :)) Thank you, GSE team!!

r 1,000 miles away. She truly is amazing. Everything was so stress-free. I can't imagine planning another event without her!

our countless amount of questions and guiding us to the perfect vendors. She made my dream become a reality! I couldn't be more thankful that we hired Gabriela! She took so much stress off of us and our families during this process. When is came to the wedding day, I truly did not have to worry about one thing and neither did our families. She made sure everything ran smoothly and that we were having the time of our life. Gabriela is by far the greatest wedding planner. She has become a life long friend that my husband and I appreciate so much!

oriented and anticipates (beyond) your needs . Our wedding celebration turned out absolutely perfect. I am still in awe a week later at how perfectly & seamlessly everything turned out! As a bride, there is nothing better than having someone like Gabriela cover ALL bases for you. She is a kind spirit, extremely diligent, professional and thoughtful at often overlooked details. On our wedding day GSE was present and active all the way; for me, my guests and all the vendors. Her assistant performed absolutely excellent on the wedding day. The whole wedding team is top notch! When I have an event in the future, GSE is the first call I will make.

her assistants allowed our wedding to unfold seamlessly and according to planned. Our ceremony was at the church followed by a yacht reception so there was multiple vendors and places to coordinate throughout the day. We could not have enjoyed our special day celebrating our love with all of our guests with out her help and coordination :)

t have been more happy with our decision. She provided guidance on what to pull back on and what we should make sure we include, and she was also super helpful with negotiations. She brought our wedding vision to life. On the actual wedding day, we literally did not have to worry about anything except getting ready, showing up and experiencing the best day of our lives. I wish I could marry my husband again and do it all over again :) When we renew our vows, we'll be sure to have Gabriela make those dreams come true too. Best. Team. Ever. Thank you for everything, Gabriela!!

ing. She was so easy going, and was there for whenever i needed her. Certain times she reassured me that everything was getting done, she kept everything calm, and kept us on track with all planning, and arranging vendors. I give her 5 stars, because we developed a friendship, she is someone i will never forget for being so special to Throughout our whole beautiful lifetime experience.

ional, knowledgeable, honest, dependable, and fun! She is a great communicator so you are always in the loop; she answers every call, email, and text. She always made me feel special; like I was her main priority. I am so lucky to have had Gabriela as my wedding planner; but even luckier to have her as friend! We have kept in touch since the wedding and I hope to stay in touch for years to come!

otos to remind us about our special day. She is extremely organized and will answer at any time of day! She and her team made our wedding go by without a single mistake and I was just being told where to go all throughout, NO STRESS!!! Definitely recommend Gabriela for your wedding!!

h felt comfortable with Gabriela. She asked all the right questions and seemed to immediately understand what Samantha was looking for. On the wedding day Gabriela was with us for over 12 hours and helped keep the Bride and Groom as well as bridal party of 16 organized and happy through, hair, makeup, photos, the procession and the reception! Most importantly, she never lost her “cool” even when many people were calling her name at once! She kept her sense of humor throughout the planning and the wedding day . Gabriela embraced Sam ( and Sheldon) and made them both feel special and was available when they “needed” her. She lent her expertise and worked within our budget. The timeline she put together helped make the day run efficiently! Thank you Gabriela Sousa Events!

ding day perfect. She was very helpful in coordinating with all our vendors, taking charge at family pictures, and putting together a timeline. She thought of all the little details and we would without a doubt reccommend Gabi and her team if you want a stress free wedding day. She went above and beyond to make my husband and I feel special throughout the whole wedding planning process and weekend. Thank you Gabi for everything!

off without a hitch!

was nothing but friendly and helpful and worked within our budget. Can't remember the name of the package but we had day of coordination and the month prior planning as well. Everything was so easy and all details were taken care of before we even got to FL. The actual wedding day itself was absolutely PERFECT! Gabriela made sure to think of everything! We didn't have to worry about a single thing and were able to enjoy every single part of the day stress free. The whole day went without a hitch and it is all thanks to this team. Seriously, look no further for your coordinator! Thank you so much Gabriela for all of your help!!!! :)

tive can-do attitude and quickly helped us arrange a new venue. She is a genuinely kind, positive and energetic person, and amazing to have by your side in moments of crisis!

y. Every thing I mentioned she replied, I'll take care of that and she did! If felt like I had a fairy godmother that day. Thank you, thank you. If you hire Gabi, your wedding will be beyond what you had hoped for.

ven thought of and made sure my wedding day and rehearsal ran smoothly. As a small example, I hadn't considered what would happen to all my "stuff" like my champagne flutes and cake server at the end of the reception. If it were not for Gabi it probably would have gotten lost in the shuffle, but she had it all wrapped up and neatly tucked away for my mom to grab. Even my vendors commented on what a pleasure she was to work with. Hire her--you will not be disappointed!

e was pivotal when deciding how to fit things into our budget. The day of, we were able to be carefree and enjoy the day with our family and friends thanks to her team. Hire her!

she was so responsive for my entire 18 month engagement if i had any questions along the way. Also so honest about every aspect. I didn’t have to think for 1 second what was going on that night. If anything went wrong, I still have no idea because Gabii made my entire day flawless. I repeat : HIRE GABRIELA NOW.

sky cleared up for the ceremony but we decided to keep the dinner in the backup location since the weather was still looking like rain. Even with the bad weather, Gabriela made sure to keep me calm and helped me change my idea because of the new venue

r!!

went through all of the details of what we had booked months in advance and helped us put it all together.

some of our crazy ideas and was able to keep both of our neurotic families calm the whole wedding weekend. We upgraded Gabriela's package from day-of coordination to partial planning when we had a hard time narrowing down and booking some vendors and that was the best decision we made. Automaticaly made us feel more comfortable and relaxed when it came to making edcisions because Gabriela was helping. Our wedding day was PERFECT and I new we were in good hands. Gabriela kept us on time and made sure we had something to eat during the day and that we wealways had a drink in our hand at the reception. Thank you Gabriela!!!!

ickly moved everything to our indoor room and our guests never even knew it was a last minute change.

the entire wedding process! Gabriela is so passionate about helping her brides and grooms plan the best day of their lives. I would highly recommend Gabriela Sousa Events to all my friends and family. Thank you so much Gabriela for all of your help! You are truly amazing!

lucky enough to be referred to Gabi. She turned out to be the best hire in our wedding. Gabi came in and planned/coordinated our wedding with just a week left before the wedding. It was not an easy job but she was able to step in with a week left and take control of our wedding like as if she was there from the beginning. Gabi has a special gift of connecting with the couple and feeling like she's part of the family. So if you're looking for someone that is easy to work with and does a great job in organizing/planning/ keeping everyone in line with the timeline then Gabi Sousa is the person you need to hire. My wife and I now consider her a friend. So if you are having trouble finding a wedding coordinator look no further then Gabi Sousa. Our wedding was unbelievable and the best day of our lives and we both know that a huge part of that was because of Gabi and her staff. Thank you again!

rsonal touches to our wedding so it felt like it was really "us". I recommend Gabriela and her team 1000%!

th Gabriela we knew we wanted to work with her. She took the time to understand what we wanted, and reviewed all the aspects of wedding coordination with us which was super helpful and put us at ease. Each meeting after that was smooth and pieced together the details of our wedding day. Whether it was forming the timeline, helping with venue layout, running our rehearsal, coordinating bouquets, or even providing details like a card holder which saved us from a bunch of errands before our wedding - Gabriela truly went above and beyond. On the big day, her team took care of transforming the outdoor venue into a beautiful wedding setup despite on-and-off rain throughout the day. I'm certain the weather was challenging but I didn't notice or stress about anything - GSE was on it! We felt so confident with Gabriela on our team and I cannot tell you how much that means going into and on the wedding day. Even my bridesmaids noted how great she was. We're super grateful to have worked with Gabriela and highly recommend Gabriela Sousa Events!

by because she is amazingly organized and makes planning a wedding easy!

lp me throughout the day which was awesome, the whole day was amazing and everything went according to plan. we had a few guests show up without having rsvp but gabriela was able to figure out logistics and no one noticed a thing.

always brought up details we didn't even know we were supposed to address and she always gave good ideas on how to make my Pinterest dreams actually match my wedding theme. I can honestly say that I did not have to worry about a thing on our wedding day, she collected our marriage license and guest book the day before and on the wedding day she just told me to be sure I stared my makeup on time. For the rest of the day Gabriela and Karina made sure we stayed on schedule and that we were having a good time! she even texted me some photos she got of us on her phone! We're on our honeymoon now wishing we could do it all over again, it was so much fun!
