Gerad Floyd Events

bout bringing our vision to life. Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, but Gerad has such a special way of making everything feel seamless. He thought of details we never would have considered, kept everything on track, and handled every moving piece with such calm professionalism. No matter what came up, we always felt like we were in the very best hands! What really sets Gerad apart is how much he truly cares. He didn’t just treat us like clients. He treated us like people he was genuinely rooting for! He listened closely, understood our style, and made sure our wedding felt like us in every possible way. On the day of the wedding, we were able to be fully present and soak in every moment, knowing Gerad had everything under control. And he absolutely did! Everything ran so smoothly, so beautifully, and truly exceeded our expectations. We love Gerad and cannot recommend him enough! If you’re looking for someone who is incredibly talented, organized, kind, and so genuinely invested in your happiness, he is your person!

rst meeting, Gerad gave us confidence, clarity, and excitement. He was available for any question I had (and believe me, if you are someone who has never had a wedding before, you WILL have questions). When our plans and ideas changed, he pivoted with enthusiasm. I was able to rely on him for guidance and expertise. His knowledge wasn’t the only important part of his presence - his calm, encouraging demeanor kept my nerves down. I truly felt like my wedding day was important to him throughout each meeting (of which there were as MANY as I wanted - can’t tell you how valuable it is to be able to hop on a quick call with an expert during such a brand new experience). Day-of, Gerad was a CRITICAL presence. He solved problems quickly with initiative that allowed us to enjoy our day—at this point, I’m still not even sure how much work he did behind the scenes so that my experience was a breeze. Even with weather and location changes, activity rescheduling, missing items, and countless other unexpected moments of the day, Gerad somehow worked through it easily and ensured the day was as beautiful and successful as we dreamed.He worked beautifully with our young guests, elderly guests, and everyone in between. He coordinated seamlessly with all our vendors, whether he’d worked with them before or not. His content creation is ART, & I’m going to be watching the reel he made of our wedding for the rest of my life. I would recommend Gerad to any newly engaged couple who want their day to be supported, guided, and full of love. Austin has many to choose from, but I’m not sure anyone Gerad beat.

could not have asked for a better person to bring our day to life. Gerad’s passion and enthusiasm are unmatched. Gerad plans events out of a genuine love and care for creating special celebrations. The care for every couple he works with, and every unique idea/detail, is apparent from the start and only increased as we fleshed out more details. Combined with the know-how/experience to bring those ideas to life, Gerad is uniquely capable to coordinate special moments. On top of vision and passion, Gerad is flawlessly on top of all details. An appreciated level of “keeping you informed, but I’m handling it” to reduce mental load on couples while reassuring them that nothing has been forgotten. Gerad provided us with a planning checklist/timeline that laid out all considerations to plan for and when they should be completed. After establishing basics, Gerad put together a beautiful vision board which solidified how our event would come together. After setting this direction, Gerad provided knowledge and consultation about details. Though our day was our own design and ideas, Gerad was excellent at informing decisions, advising us about his opinions, and stepping in to lead conversations and conceptualize details. All while ensuring that everything felt genuine to us. Gerad has seen right and wrong ways to do things; he will contribute incredible ideas that elevate your event, will steer you away from any possible mistakes/bad ideas, and knows when things feel right. Gerad builds and maintains strong relationships with vendors, his preferred list ensures a quality guarantee and people to work with who share Gerad’s level of passion. Gerad’s high bar for performance absolutely extends to anyone he recommends, which made our vendor choices with him stress-free. Every suggestion he made fit us so well. We couldn’t be happier with Gerad’s organization of vendors. Gerad’s day-of coordination is flawless. We jointly built a detailed timeline of the day which Gerad and his team then implemented while also naturally handling unexpected changes, ensuring that every detail was attended to. The winter storm over our weekend involved a massive amount of extra effort which Gerad handled, on top of normal planning for the day. A constantly-changing forecast meant he had to make many contingency plans for uncontrollable factors. A huge amount of extra effort and communication went into checking if all involved with our wedding could execute safely, and changes were made even during the event. Throughout, Gerad assured us that the show would go on matching our comfort level, with every detail still accounted for. Once our wedding started, Gerad kept everything running beautifully, smoothing over the few hiccups that arose. His management of people (directing participants on how to perform their tasks) and details was stellar and thorough. We couldn't have executed without him, his graceful directing meant that we only had to think about enjoying the night. We wholeheartedly recommend Gerad as THE wedding coordinator to work with in Austin. While there are many choices in the city, I honestly do not think anyone else can do a better job than Gerad. We were incredibly lucky to find Gerad and are so appreciative of his work to make our wedding successful and unforgettable.
