Gina… I don’t know where to begin… I truly feel like anything I write won’t do you justice, but I’m going to try my best and give it a go:
First and foremost, THANK YOU. Thank you for your dedication and passion, thank you for your endless back-and-forth emails; thank you for the constant reassurance; thank you for your patience; thank you for being the best damn wedding planner. Although, you were more than our wedding planner….. You were our North Star. Our sanity. Our cheerleader. And our friend.
Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude for GME…. We thank our lucky stars that we found you, the most extraordinary wedding planner and genuinely amazing human being, who turned our dream wedding into a breathtaking reality.
From the moment we met Gina, we knew that she was something special - a rare gem… a planner with an unparalleled passion for her craft and a genuine love for her clients.
Gina, you left us speechless. We will eternally be grateful for you and your team. You transformed our vision into a magical wonderland that surpassed our wildest dreams, and we feel like the luckiest couple to have had you by our side throughout the entire process. You are worth your weight in gold, diamonds, rubies…
On our wedding day, Gina was a beacon of calm and reassurance, handling every aspect with grace, efficiency, and the utmost care. Everything went so smoothly, and everyone kept coming up to us throughout the nice to praise Gina. Her unwavering dedication to making our day perfect was nothing short of awe-inspiring.
We will forever cherish the memories of our wedding day, a day that would not have been possible without Gina's incredible talents, boundless energy, and warm, loving spirit. She is a true gift, and we cannot recommend her highly enough to any couple looking for a planner who will pour their heart and soul into making their wedding day the most beautiful, magical, and unforgettable day of their lives. My only complaint is that now it’s over and I’m going to miss you!! I wish we could do it all over again so that we can re-experience the magic that you are.
All our love,
Amanda & Harrison Kryvicky

CRYING THE HAPPIEST OF TEARS!! Thank you so much for your sweet words and having me along this journey with you and Harrison!! I will certainly miss you two
From start to finish, Gina was the most amazing partner to have throughout our wedding planning journey. She paid attention to every detail, both big and small, and made sure nothing was overlooked. Her dedication, creativity, and personal touch truly set her apart, and we feel so lucky to have had her by our side. Gina is not just a wedding planner; she’s a wonderful person who genuinely cares about making your day as special as possible. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! You can tell she truly cares about making each event unique and special. Her communication throughout the entire planning process was exceptional—everything was always explained in detail, which helped us feel organized and never overwhelmed or stressed. On our wedding day, Gina took charge of everything so seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy the day without any worries. She was always there when we needed her, handling everything behind the scenes with ease. It was really important to us to find someone who could take charge when needed, while also helping us feel confident in the decisions we were making. With so many options available, we wanted someone who could provide us with a curated selection of choices and guide us through the process without overwhelming us. Gina did just that—she offered us thoughtful options, explained everything clearly, and made sure we always felt good about the decisions we were making. She was there every step of the way, helping us bring our vision to life in the most beautiful way possible.

I am so sad this wedding is over and so sad we aren't emailing weekly!! I def got the wedding blues after this amazing day!! Thank you for all your kind words and wishing you and Dwight all the absolute best <3
Hiring Gina was the best decision that I made for my wedding. I cannot thank her enough for her professionalism, focus, and efficiency. Gina always answered my questions timely (always a quick turnaround if Gina isn’t out of office on working on events). From day one, communication was clear and Gina always came with a plan. It was a great help to have Gina correspond with my other vendors, and set up all final calls. She always came with a plan and agenda, and she is focused on every call to ensure that we cover all of the topics we need to.
My wedding party and guests have expressed that they are so impressed by how efficient Gina is. She knew exactly when to be where, and was very clear in providing directions. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day since everything was so well planned and thought about in advance.
Thanks Gina!

Any questions?
We cannot begin to thank Gina and her team enough for their flawless execution of our dream wedding weekend. With over 400 guests for a traditional Hindu ceremony, this was no small feat and GME exceeded all expectations. Gina is so kind, incredibly patient, and maintains the perfect balance between fun and serious in order to get things done. We have a large and involved family with a lot of different opinions, but Gina was able to navigate us all gracefully and ensure everyone remained happy. She brought my vision to life better than I saw it in my own mind and our guests were in awe of both events. We are forever grateful for Gina Marie Events and would recommend them without reservation to anyone looking for the perfect planning team!

Gina made the whole day feel so effortless. As a bride, I knew I could truly take in the day and not have to worry about the little things since Gina was there. She is AMAZING and thinks of everything.

Ah Sydney thank you so much! I loved working with you and THANK YOU for choosing me to be a part of your day. You are the literal sweetest and I am so happy to have celebrated with you!
The hotel where we had our wedding required us to hire a wedding planner and we’re a bit embarrassed to say now that we didn’t think a wedding planner was necessary. But we got a list of recommended wedding planners from the hotel and Gina Geiler of Gina Marie Events was the first one we met with via video call. We were going to meet with several of them but after that first meeting we both quickly agreed that Gina was the one for us. Suffice it to say that right off the bat Gina thought of so many things that weren’t even on our radar and then she proceeded to make everything as easy as possible for us and guided us pretty much seamlessly through the whole planning process. Her vendor recommendations were top notch and reasonably priced. The wedding weekend went perfectly and Gina worked herself to the bone on our wedding day. We received numerous compliments from our guests about Gina, which were well deserved. On many occasions we told our friends and family that the money we spent on Gina’s services was the best money we spent on the whole wedding. We highly recommend Gina and Gina Marie Events!

r lives flourish! Cheers to forever ❤️
We couldn't be more grateful for Gina’s incredible work as our wedding planner! From her meticulous attention to detail to her unwavering commitment to keeping everything on track, she made our special day absolutely seamless.
When it came to the design process, we provided her with ideas and themes as to how we wanted our wedding to look and she ran with it. We felt very comfortable entrusting her with the design elements of our wedding. In fact, we received numerous compliments on the circular ceremony setup that she implemented.
We were continually amazed by Gina's ability to stay on top of every aspect of the planning process while still maintaining a sense of flexibility that allowed us to navigate changes with ease. We were able to fully immerse ourselves in the joy of our wedding day without a single worry about the logistics. It truly felt like we were guests at our own celebration! Gina's resourcefulness and calm demeanor ensured that any hiccups were swiftly resolved, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment.
Not only did Gina exceed our expectations, but she also went above and beyond to ensure that our guests had an amazing experience. Gina's professionalism and resourcefulness were evident to everyone, and many of our guests expressed their gratitude for the seamless execution of the event.
We wholeheartedly recommend Gina/GME to anyone in search of a wedding planner who is not only exceptional at what they do but also genuinely cares about making your wedding vision/dream a reality.

Thank you so much for your kind words! Working with you two was great & I LOVED how your day turned out. I am so happy we were able to merge your cultures, create a beautiful day & allowed everyone to have the best time celebrating!!
Hiring Gina Marie Weddings & Events was a no brainer! Working in the industry, I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Gina and her team on multiple weddings and knew when it was my turn to plan my wedding day that I wanted Gina by my side! She is the best at what she does and the most organized, experienced and professional planner out there. She understood my vision and always made me feel relaxed throughout the planning and on the day of. I knew I could trust her every step of the way! Jean and I had an incredible day/night all thanks to GME! It was absolutely perfect!!!

Ah Jessica! Thank you so much for your kind words - it was truly an honor to plan your day...and I was so excited when you wanted ME to do it!! You are such an angel to work with and I had such a great time planning with you!!
How much can one praise a wedding planner? Gina is absolutely phenomenal in everything that she does. She works with you to understand your vision of your dream day and makes it into a reality. (Felt like magic!) Both my husband and I work full time jobs while still going to school and Gina is patient with working with your schedule to meet and get everything ready for the big day. Our wedding would NOT have been possible without her. She not only planned but recommended a majority of the vendors we ended up using. I can honestly say, our wedding went off without a hitch. Gina is worth her weight in gold. She is always there to work with you and help you in anything and I mean anything that you may need. Every wedding needs a planner like Gina Marie.

YOUR DAY WAS MAGIC & I am so happy to have been a part of it! I loved working with you and Thomas and lovvvveeeeed how your day turned out. I can't wait to see where this next journey take you two - cheers to forever!!
Gina and her team were delightful to work with. She came recommended by my cousin who used her for her wedding. They were incredibly dedicated, organized, and insightful. From the first call to the day of the wedding, they were willing to go above and beyond for us. We selected the Wedding Management, and she was still with us at every step of the way. Always available for a call or email when we had doubts or questions, which we really appreciated. The day of the wedding, they ensured the flow from the ceremony to cocktail hour and reception ran exactly as we planned. They were timely and efficient in setting up and taking down our DIY arrangements (welcome signs, votives, candles, etc.). Cannot imagine what we would have done without them by our side throughout the day. We highly recommend Gina and her team.

Thank you for your kind words! I am so happy to have been a part of your wedding day. You two were so easy to work with & were radiating with so much love in your wedding day! Wishing you two all the best!!!
Where do I begin?!?! To say hiring Gina for partial wedding planning was the best wedding planning decision we made would be putting it lightly. As a wedding planner myself I knew I needed a planner who would reel me in and take over so I could enjoy the process as a bride! Gina did just that. She heard our vision and ran with it. From design meetings to vendor selection she was imperative in every decision.
Gina went above and beyond to make sure every detail was exactly as we wanted, but she wasn't also afraid to be honest and open about what was feasible. As the planning went on I began to have decision fatigue and Gina took over. She knew what we wanted and we knew we could trust her to guide us to the vision we wanted within the budget we had set. No detail was left unturned. All the little details are what mattered to us most. They are what made the vision come to life. Her ideas were unique and designs we hadn't seen before which really excited us.
On the weekend of our wedding Gina & her team were a part of 3 events. The Wedding Rehearsal, Rehearsal Dinner, and Wedding Day. Having her with us all weekend long allowed us to really be present with our guests. We knew she had everything under control and would execute it perfectly for us. I am a very hands on person so leaving it all in the hands of her and just being in the moment was my entire goal of hiring Gina and her team and exactly that happened. All my husband, mom, and bridal party kept saying to me that they have never seen me so calm and carefree about an event and that's all thanks to Gina. I knew she had things under control and she did. Everything happened without a hitch or at least that I know of! Our guests were in awe of how smoothly the weekend flowed, and the compliments poured in.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Gina and her team for making our entire wedding weekend the most smooth and unforgettable experience of our lives. In a world of wedding planning, you are a true gem, and I am forever grateful for everything you did for us.

Working with Gina was the best decision we made during the wedding planning process! Gina was on top of everything at all times, kept the planning process easy for us, and made the day of the wedding the most magical day ever. She did everything perfectly down to the timeline and the all of details. Our wedding day could not have been what it was without her and her team. I am eternally grateful! I would recommend Gina to everyone!

We had an amazing experience with Gina. She made sure not only that we stayed on schedule when we had to postpone the wedding an entire year but also that I was able to pull a little surprise for my now wife, a secret she kept for almost 2 years - HUGE props to her for that!
Neither my partner or I had too much knowledge about all that goes into a wedding and she was super patient and ensured we understood all the options we had before making a decision (for example, choosing to have a unity ceremony or choosing to wear a veil). On the day of the wedding, we had an issue with my bustle, as it was a bit hard to find, and she stepped in and figured it out in a jiffy!
We would 100% recommend her and her team for anyone looking to get married in South Florida. Thank you Gina for all your help in making our wedding day everything we hoped for!!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I can't believe we finally were able to celebrate!!! I am so honored to have been a part of your special day! I had so much fun planning with you two and can't wait to see where this journey takes you!!!
We loved working with Gina Marie Wedding & Events! From the first consultation up till the wedding day, her and her team was with us every step of the way. Gina is very organized, and kept us on track with her resources. Gina came with us to the florist appointments and had amazing input when it came to making decisions. She put us at ease during the planning process. She was a great liaison between us and our vendors. Her guidance during our monthly meetings were top notch, and she truly helps your vision come to life. Her team the day of handled all the behind the scenes to ensure we had the most magical night. We were so lucky to work with Gina Marie Wedding & Events!

If you’re in need of a wedding planner, look no further than Gina Marie Weddings & Events. The best decision I made was hiring Gina and her team to plan and coordinate our wedding. Looking back there was simply no way that I could have done it without their expertise. My husband and I were originally planning on getting married in October, but I unexpectedly had to undergo major surgery and we were forced to cancel our wedding. We knew we would need help the second time around. The stress of planning a wedding during recovery seemed daunting. That’s where Gina came into our lives. She was our personal guardian angel. From the moment we met her, we knew she was special. She listened to our ideas and provided us with great suggestions that we would have never thought of on our own. Gina held our hands during the entire planning process. We loved how she embraced technology to organize and plan our wedding. Her website made it simple to access everything from the budget, guest list, vendor information, seating arrangements, and so much more. We were even provided virtual checklists to help keep us on task. Gina is probably the most detail oriented and organized professional that I have ever known, and all of our vendors would agree. They raved about Gina and her team the entire night, telling us that she was the best wedding coordinator that they ever had the pleasure of working alongside. As a bride on a budget, I really appreciated how Gina strived to make everything cost effective. When the estimate of flowers was a bit too pricey, Gina was on it. She worked with the florist to bring down the cost by a couple thousand dollars by repurposing the ceremony flowers and using more greenery and water features. It turned out beautiful! We really appreciated how Gina made herself available to us every second of our big day. She made sure that my husband and I were well fed and having fun the entire night. When my sister and mother couldn’t figure out how to bustle my dress, Gina took over and had it done looking beautiful in no time. When dirt mysteriously appeared on my train before the ceremony, Gina got on the floor with her shout wipes and tide pens to perform a last-minute miracle. Everything from the ceremony to the reception turned our perfect. It was beyond anything that I could have imagined on my own. I wanted a palm/beachy theme wedding and Gina gave us paradise. I remember walking into the ballroom completely stunned. It was incredible! The entire wedding night ran so smoothly, and all the vendors Gina recommended were phenomenal. It’s been nearly a month since our big day and our guests are still reaching out to tell us it was the best wedding they ever attended. We can’t express how grateful we are for everything Gina has done for us ❤

y!
Hiring GME was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! After speaking to a few wedding planners, I had a good feeling about Gina and hired GME. First off, Gina is VERY organized and will keep the bride on track throughout the entire wedding process. I am very Type A and worried I would miss an important detail but it is almost impossible to forget or miss anything important with GME. They send out monthly reminders with things that need to be completed and deadlines.
Another thing I loved about working with GME is that I could always set up a call or meeting to discuss anything - brides, this is very important because other planners I spoke to had a very defined and limited amount of meetings/calls they would allow as part of their services. I cannot imagine having only 2-3 meetings with an event planner when there is SO much to discuss! Wedding planning became more challenging when my work life became a lot busier, especially the weeks leading up to the wedding. I was worried I would not be able to reach out to Gina as much or keep up with emails. But Gina went out of her way to make sure we could continue communicating whenever it worked best for me, even if sometimes she had to be flexible with her own schedule, which I very much appreciated!
Leading up to the wedding, Gina handled all communication with vendors. This might seem like a small detail but it was HUGE because it is not easy to keep up with emails with 10+vendors at once, especially towards the last few weeks. Gina coordinated everything and if there is anything that went wrong during the wedding day, I did not even find out because in my experience on my wedding day, everything went SO smooth!
But I TRULY realized how much EVERYONE needs a wedding planner/coordinator once the big day arrived. It is physically impossible to be a bride and try to be everywhere all at once. The day of the wedding I did not have to lift a finger. Gina took care of EVERYTHING (coordinating, setting up the things I had DIY’d on my own, making sure every other vendor was doing their job, etc). The best part is that at the end of the night, GME also took care of packing up everything that was mine including everything I had DIY’d, which I was not expecting (this is a service that some planners don’t have or that they charge extra for)! I had the luxury of enjoying my wedding day and at the end of the night, I was able to attend my after party without having to worry about picking anything up because GME did it all!
Additionally, Gina has a great eye and I had VERY big dreams. I wanted a fairytale wedding. Gina was always very supportive of my ideas and tried to work with me as best as she could while still advising me on budget and giving me recommendations based off her prior experiences. Needless to stay, I got a fairytale wedding and I am still in awe of how beautiful everything came together. I was very nervous about certain aspects of the decor, especially about having a reception with a tent (I was afraid it would look tacky) but I ended up trusting Gina and it honestly turned out to be the most beautiful wedding and even more gorgeous tent reception I have ever seen. It looked like it came straight out of a Pinterest board and it would not have been possible without Gina’s support. I was not an easy bride to work with and I am so thankful for her patience with me throughout this process!
I highly recommend Gina and the GME team for all wedding planning events!
Response from the Vendor on 07/19/2023
Ah Jessica - thank you so much for this review!!! We created a BEAUTIFUL wedding together and thank you for trusting me to make your dreams come true!! I will always remember how beautiful this day was! Wishing you two all the best!
Gina and her team are absolute gems! If you are considering a wedding planner, for any amount of time, we would highly encourage you to book with Gina Marie Wedding & Events.
We booked Gina for the 3 months leading up to our wedding, however, Gina was helpful from the first day we booked her 9 months prior. She is beyond knowledgeable, calm and friendly. She recommends wonderful vendors (most who give a discount when you say her name, since they also love working with her) and helps you make decisions from napkin folds to seating suggestions.
I am a very organized person myself and had my own wedding binder, however, there are so many additional resources and questions that Gina was able to guide us with. I truly don’t know how anyone has a wedding without Gina. She ensures that all vendors are on top of things and that your day runs smoothly so that you can enjoy the time with your party getting ready and then with your significant other. I wasn’t worried about a single thing the day off, just looking forward to seeing my groom and enjoying the day!
Our day was beautiful, ran smoothy and exceeded all our expectations. We would rate Gina Marie Wedding & Events a 10/10!

Oh Angela - thank you so much for your sweet review! I loved working with you two & we had such a great day!! Wishing you two all the best & can’t wait to see where this journey takes you!
We recently tied the knot and had the absolute pleasure of working with Gina Marie Weddings & Events, and we cannot express how grateful we are for the incredible experience they provided us on our special day. From the very beginning, Gina and her team made us feel like we were the most important couple in the world, and their dedication and attention to detail were truly remarkable.
First and foremost, Gina's expertise in the wedding industry was evident from our initial consultation. She took the time to understand our vision, preferences, and unique personalities, and skillfully translated them into a wedding that perfectly encapsulated who we are as a couple. Her creativity and ability to think outside the box resulted in a day that was truly one-of-a-kind.
Throughout the entire planning process, Gina demonstrated exceptional professionalism and organization. She flawlessly coordinated every aspect, from vendor recommendations to contract negotiations, ensuring that every detail was taken care of. This not only alleviated our stress but also allowed us to fully enjoy the lead-up to our big day, knowing that everything was in capable hands.
On the day of our wedding, Gina and her team executed everything flawlessly. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they effortlessly managed the logistics, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the joy of the moment. From the stunning floral arrangements to the impeccable table settings, every element exceeded our expectations.
Beyond their exceptional planning and coordination skills, Gina truly cared about making our wedding a reflection of our love story. They went above and beyond to personalize every aspect, incorporating sentimental touches that made our day even more meaningful. It was evident that they genuinely wanted our wedding to be a unique and memorable experience for us, our families, and our guests.
One aspect that stood out during our experience was the team's exceptional communication. They promptly responded to our inquiries, provided regular updates, and kept us informed throughout the entire process. Their responsiveness and willingness to accommodate our requests ensured a seamless planning journey, and we always felt like a priority.
Gina and her team's passion for their craft was infectious. Their enthusiasm and positive energy made the entire process enjoyable, and their calming presence on the wedding day itself was invaluable. We were able to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the celebration, knowing that every detail was being meticulously managed.
In conclusion, we wholeheartedly recommend Gina Marie Weddings & Events to any couple embarking on their wedding planning journey. Their exceptional professionalism, creativity, and unwavering dedication result in a stress-free, unforgettable experience. Gina and her team are true experts in their field, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful memories they helped us create.

so happy for you - congratulations!!
All of my girlfriends recently got engaged, and they all ask me how I was so relaxed during wedding planning compared to them. I always have one answer: Gina! If there is any expense I would recommend during the wedding planning process, it is a full coordination wedding planner- specifically Gina Marie Weddings & Events! Gina made the entire planning process enjoyable, and allowed me to have fun with it, and actually enjoy being a fiancé! Gina and her team also made sure everything went seamless throughout the entire wedding day. Multiple guests made comments on how everything seemed to go perfectly, and it truly did (and if there were issues during the day, I didn’t know about it because Gina handled it!). We are so grateful for Gina and her team, and I will always recommend hiring Gina Marie Weddings & Events for one of the most special days of your life!

My husband and I had a WONDERFUL experience with Gina Marie Weddings & Events. Gina and her team were incredibly helpful, professional, and very on top of our whole wedding planning process. I felt very comfortable knowing that one of the most important days of our lives was in Gina's hands. She did a great job understanding exactly what we wanted, helping develop our ideas, and bringing the vision to life.
Response from the Vendor on 05/15/2023
I had the best time planning with you two and had an even better time celebrating!! Your day was absolute perfection and I am so thankful to have been a part of it!! Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your journey and I can't wait to see...
where the next chapter takes you two!
Where do I even begin?? To put it very simply, choosing Gina Marie Events for full-service planning was hands down the BEST decision I made for our wedding (besides my husband, of course). Gina has just the right talent, experience, organization, and creative vision and I knew she was a perfect match from our very first call. I had a pretty specific picture of what I wanted for our wedding, but needed help bringing it to life and balancing it on top of a full-time job all the way from NYC. Gina went above and beyond to make sure every detail was exactly as we wanted, (each of her vendor recommendations beyond exceeded my expectations) but she wasn't also afraid to be honest and open about what was feasible (especially when it came to budget) and came up with creative solutions when my initial idea was (in hindsight) completely bonkers.
Just when I thought Gina couldn't get any more amazing, then our actual wedding day came. I had been pretty hands on throughout the planning process, but the main reason I made the decision to invest in a wedding planner was so that we (including our wedding guests) could enjoy the day. I was SO calm on our wedding day (too calm if you ask my closest friends and family lol because they know my neurotic tendencies when planning a party) and honestly it was because I knew all the work we had done leading up to this day had prepared us, and that I 100000% trusted Gina to execute the plan plus make any on-the-spot decisions. My husband and I still talk about how PERFECT this day went and we couldn't have done it without Gina & her team.
I miss our monthly calls and checklists, Gina let's do it again!!!

Omg yes please let’s do it again!! You were literally the best to work with and I am ever so appreciative of your organization, positive attitude and the pure excitement you had for the day. Literally nothing, and I mean it, nothing went wrong ...
on your day & I am so happy to have been a part of it! Sooooo honored to have been a part of your journey and I can’t wait to see what’s next for you two! Cheers to forever ❤️❤️
Gina and her team are exceptional and passionate at what they do. We spent over a year planning our wedding and Gina always elevated the experience and details. She was supportive of our creativity and made all of our unique nuances part of the overall wedding. She brings together her understanding of us as a couple, our ideas, her expertise and creates a vision that is absolutely beyond your wildest dreams. Gina worked with every one of our vendors to ensure that our wedding was beautiful and we got everything we wanted. She also provided exceptional guidance on the venue and what we would need to make our special day enjoyable for ourselves and our guests. Overall, the team was incredibly organized and had everything they could possibly have needed the day of the ceremony. When looking for a planner, we wanted someone who was direct, professional, and experienced. Gina and the team went above and beyond expectations. They allowed us to enjoy the special moments such as the tasting, wedding, and breakdown as they took care of remembering every decision that needed to be made along the way. We wouldn't have been able to do it without Gina!

Thank you for your kind words!!! I looovvveeed working with you and Josh and your day was such a stunner - thank you for choosing me to be a part of your special day! Wishing you two all the best & can't wait to see where this journey takes you...

I cannot recommend Gina and her team enough. Her patience, dedication and hard work was the biggest reason our day was so special. She brought my visions to life and went above and beyond to make sure everything was what I wanted regardless of the sunlight, weather, or space.
I met Gina back in 2019 when we worked an event together for Nova Southeastern. I was in awe of her organization back then, and when I found out she had started her own wedding planning business - I knew there was no better choice. From monthly video chats, to quickly-answered emails, Gina was my rock when it came to planning the day of my dreams.
So many of my vendors, including our venue, raved to me about her services and how involved Gina was with the process and how impressive she was. I just responded with a “I know :)”.
If you’re looking for a first-class planner - look no further. She’s right here.

Finding Gina was the best thing to happen to us during wedding planning! She was such a joy to work with. Without Gina we would not have been able to have our dream wedding. It was above and beyond what we could have expected. She was always available day and night to answer any questions we had. Our wedding day went seamlessly even if something went wrong we would have never known because she handled everything with such grace! She is amazing if you are thinking of hiring her do it! Thank you Gina for making our day so incredibly special.

eetest! Cheers to forever - you two deserve it! Congrats!!
Amazing experience with Gina in planning our multi-day wedding events. She made the experience enjoyable, relaxed, and everything came together so beautifully! I can’t recommend enough. After speaking with many wedding planners, we ended up deciding to work with Gina because of how approachable she is, her portfolio, and her clear work ethic. Best decision we made in our wedding planning process.

best and can't wait to see where this new journey takes you two!
We cannot recommend Gina enough! She was amazing throughout the whole process! We are military and live in DC but had no problem planning the wedding from afar. We went with her wedding management service and found our own vendors but were able to consult Gina through every step! She gave us such helpful and honest insight as we made each of our decisions and she took charge in contacting our vendors and verifying details for us. Every question we had she answered right away and we truly felt like she was invested in our best interest to make sure our wedding was a dream day! She is so organized from the way she schedules all of our calls and answers emails right away to all of the resources and planning timelines she provided for us to easily reference and work on. Any issues or concerns that my then fiancé and I had regarding the wedding we would always say "oh lets ask Gina" during our conversations knowing we were in good hands! The weeks leading up to the wedding she took over with all of the vendors and timeline and confirmed everything with them. Everyone would ask us if we were stressed but we were not because everything was taken care of! From the rehearsal through the end of the wedding day Gina and her team were on top of everything. The wedding day went so smoothly as she guided us through all the different parts of the day and we were able to fully be present and enjoy the moment. When my bustle came undone she was like don't worry I got this and fixed it all up! Afterwards all of my guests commented on how well the event flowed and what a great job Gina did running the show; being prepared with anything you might need in all of her pockets and took her job seriously being so well prepared. I was honored to have such a strong woman as part of my team on our wedding day! Thanks to Gina our day was absolutely magical!!

y takes you two!!
Gina and her team at Gina Marie Weddings & Events exceeded every single one of our expectations for our wedding. If we could go back in time, we would hire her 1,000 times over. Gina was personable, diligent, responsive and just simply "on top of it." She didn't miss a single beat or detail. There was not a moment during the wedding planning process I felt stressed or overwhelmed, and in large part I attribute this to Gina's presence and assistance. On our wedding day, there was not one moment that went "wrong." As the bride and groom, we were able to just enjoy ourselves and not worry about the details, along with our families and friends. If you're looking for a wedding planner, I HIGHLY recommend Gina! I'd give her a 20 out of 10 if I could.
Response from the Vendor on 03/01/2023
My heart!!! Thank you so much for your kind words. I loved working with you and your mom - it was seriously the best day ever!!
My wife and I were reminiscing today and looking back at our wedding photos from Jan 2021. We were remembering how we tried to skip on a wedding planner to save on overall cost and how happy we are that we didn't stick to that plan. With our minds busy on a hundred different tasks just a couple months before our wedding we found ourselves overwhelmed and accepted that we needed help. We hired Gina, afraid we hesitated for too long.
Gina was was our MVP!!!! She took on the challenge and walked us through nailing every detail down to a tee. I couldn't believe how amazing she was helping us get prepared and then orchestrating the show on the day of... like JLo in the Wedding Planner, but better. She and her team were ninja's. At one point, I was doing my thing on the dance floor and felt one of my critical bobby pins come loose. 1.5 seconds later one of the team swooped in behind me and pushed it right back in, then disappeared back into the crowd. I was truly impressed.
Knowing what we know now, we would pay twice as much as we did for Gina. She and her team are worth every penny.
Gina went above and beyond on the day of our wedding and in the months leading up to it. Her vendor recommendations were amazing, and our wedding day looked like a dream. Her friendly and sweet nature really calmed us down and even my friends could not stop raving about how organized she was. There were some problems that came up during the wedding but Gina gracefully solved all of them. Gina made sure everything ran smoothly. I did not know that you NEED a planner until I met her.

Ahh Nafisa you are the sweetest. You had the BEST day and I am so honored to have been a part of it! Thank you for choosing us - we looovvvved celebrating with you & Kelvin!
Gina was awesome. The relief in having her CC’d on countless emails, asking questions to vendors we never would have thought of, and mapping everything out for us in a share drive and Excel was incredibly helpful. The day of, she made sure everyone stuck to the schedule, took the stress out of an otherwise stressful day, handled any day-of issues with vendors, and she even noticed my groomsmen and I were missing our yarmulkes right before walking down the aisle and ran to pick up and distribute them… our hero!! Seriously, Gina was great to work with, could not imagine our big day without her.
Response from the Vendor on 11/29/2022
You two are the sweetest and I am so honored to have been a part of your special day! You had the most beautiful day!!
Where do I begin with Gina?! It will be hard to put into words how amazing she is. She was more than a crucial part of my day and I genuinely don’t know what I would have done without her. Throughout my planning she kept me organized the entire time. She was always available and on time and listened to everything I would tell her. She made the scary planning process a DREAM and so easy. Wedding day she surpassed my expectations. She made sure my husband and I ate and had drinks and everything we needed. She kept everything in line and made the process so simple. She is sweet, understanding, and so easy to approach I felt like she has been a friend for years! I highly reccomend her to anyone who needs a planner to make their whole experience simple and fun! I will miss working with her!

nored to have been able to celebrate with you two & all your family and friends
Stop searching!! You found your wedding planner here!!!
Words cannot express how grateful my husband and I are to have Gina assist us in planning our wedding. Her job a big one, and institutional to planning! While I can admit, hiring a wedding planner was initially an expense we were going to forgo, I can tell you, hiring you Gina, was the single most important thing we did! It would have been one of our biggest regrets not hiring Gina. Once we had our initial contact call over the phone, I told my husband, WE NEED GINA!!! Her personality, happiness, knowledge and professionalism are second to none!! From dealing with crappy vendors, talking me off a ledge for a potential Cat 5 storm and having our wedding cancelled, again, to making a personal stop at our house to help lessen our load of things to bring to the venue the week of our wedding, she never hesitated to go above and beyond for us. Her love for her work and your clients shines bright and it doesn't go unnoticed. Seeing Gina in action handling some of our issues and getting her point across on our behalf was admiring to be a part of. This is important to any couple getting married as this alleviates A LOT from your plate while planning and preparing for your wedding. Trust me, there are details which will be overlooked or not understood. Gina was able to provide a clear constructed vision for our wedding along with her opinions and was always able to communicate this to our other contracted vendors. She stepped in the lead role to host meetings, walk throughs, and always made my husband and I comfortable in communicating with her. Whenever we had a question or concern, Gina was always extremely responsive and understanding. We are without a doubt indebted to Gina and her team for making sure our wedding was a dream!

It was such a pleasure working with you these past 3 years!! I am so happy I was able to be a part of your journey and can't wait to see where this next chapter takes your family <3 :)
I absolutely could not have had the wedding experience I had without Gina Marie Weddings & Events. Gina and her team went above and beyond not just on the wedding day, but throughout the entire wedding planning process.
As a bride who had been dreaming of her wedding day since she was a little girl, I already had somewhat of an idea of how I envisioned my wedding but I had no idea how to execute my perfectly curated Pinterest boards. Enter Gina.
No matter what question or concern I had, they had an answer and solution for anything I threw their way. Even more important, Gina is EXTREMELY responsive to emails, calls, and texts so I never felt ignored or neglected. I still have no idea if anything actually went wrong on my wedding day and for that I’m eternally grateful. I would recommend Gina to any bride, any day. And if I could do all again, the first call I’d make is to GME.

Thank you for your kind words! I am so excited to have been a part of your special day & am even more honored to have been on this journey with you! The day was absolutely perfect and I am so happy for you and Lane! Please keep in touch! <3
Gina and her team helped us plan our large and highly personalized wedding from afar and we can easily say that we would not have been able to do it without her! Though wedding planning can be overwhelming and stressful regardless, having her there guiding us and bringing our vision come to life was such an amazing help. She was incredibly flexible and open to our ideas and desires, and was so great at following up with us with our options and next steps. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for help in planning your dream wedding- especially for queer couples looking to plan a wedding celebration that feels true to who you are.

Gina is an absolute gem! We are so thankful for everything she did for and with us in planning our wedding and we could not have done it without her help. We were a little nervous about planning a wedding in Miami from Washington DC, but Gina was ALWAYS so on top of everything and eased our stress. We had video calls and endless emails along with to-do lists that helped us stay organized during the planning process. Gina’s creativity brought our dream wedding to life and we are so so thankful to her! On the day of, Gina and her team were quick on their feet and truly made the whole day run seamlessly. She is the absolute best and was so much fun to work with!

Nothing short of amazing! Gina Marie Events is a top notch wedding planner that works tirelessly to make your vision come true! We have lost count how many times we have said that we could not have gotten the wedding of our dreams without Gina. Gina and her team worked to make our vision a reality by always asking what we wanted and finding solutions to get that done. Gina and her team’s relentless energy in working with vendors and coordinating the event really made the day that much more special. Having a wedding planner by your side during this process alleviated a lot of the stress that comes along with planning the big day. On our wedding day we did not have to worry because we knew we had Gina in our corner. If you are looking for a wedding in South Florida, Gina Marie Events has the expertise to give you what you want and need! We wanted a wedding planner that was honest, knowledgeable about the area, creative, and LGBTQ+ friendly . . . Gina Marie Events was all of those things in one. We will forever be thankful for working with Gina and Gina Marie Events!

Oh and your first dance...melting my heart! I am really gonna miss our calls and planning dates but can't wait to see where this journey leads you both! Wishing you all the love!!!!
Gina makes the wedding planning process not just bearable, but fun! Every time we talked with her and went over plans we felt a weight lift off our shoulders. She is very organized, timely and creative. Gina managed to corral our crazy, loud, and fun wedding party so that the wedding ran smoothly and everything happened on time. Having inclusive wedding vendors was very important for us, we are so happy we found that in Gina. If you are questioning whether or not you need a wedding planner, you do. It will allow you to focus on the important things and be present during your special day. We cannot recommend Gina enough!

at each other - it made my heart explode! THANK YOU for picking me to be a part of your journey!
Let me just say this: if you spend any money at all on your wedding, spend it on Gina. She is the best money we spent and I cannot recommend her enough! EVERYONE NEEDS GINA. Her team is also amazing. Gina Marie Events is not only an expert in the wedding industry (so her feedback and advice is valuable while still remaining trustworthy), but she is also an incredibly organized, hard working individual. We even had guests at our wedding saying "I need her contact info for our wedding." Her prices are very reasonable for the amount of time, energy, and work she will put into making your wedding amazing. She is the best and trust me, you will be very happy if you booked with Gina Marie Weddings and Events. Thank you for being our wedding angel Gina!!

If you have a wedding coming up... Look no further because the BEST wedding planner is right here! Working full time running my dental practice left me zero free time to plan our dream wedding. My overall experience from the first phone call to inquire about Gina’s services, to our monthly phone calls making sure we were still on track with the timeline and through our wedding day exceeded all of our expectations. Gina is extremely genuine, professional, knowledgeable and well-respected in the wedding and event planning industry. Her planning portal is the PERFECT system to keep all your crazy thoughts, ideas, ever-changing guest list and mood boards in one easy to navigate spot. I never could have survived the wedding planning process without Gina’s coordination with vendors and management of the intricate details and her incredible ability to seamlessly tie together all the puzzle pieces to make any wedding day vision a reality. My biggest regret was not reaching out to Gina prior to booking some of my vendors, but she reassured me, helped us negotiate existing contracts and took over all communication with the vendors which was a huge relief. Thanks to Gina’s extremely detailed timeline, our wedding day flowed perfectly and truly allowed us to enjoy the day and live in the moment with our friends and family… rain and all!

I cannot recommend Gina and her team enough! We could not have pulled off our rehearsal dinner, welcome event, and wedding without her. Gina was recommended to me through my photographer, and I liked her immediately. She was thorough, organized, and responsive throughout the planning process.
I connected with Gina about five months before my wedding and opted for her wedding management package as I'd already secured most of my vendors and had a pretty clear vision for my wedding. This package was perfect for me as I really needed someone to keep me organized, maintain contact with all of my vendors, and most importantly create and manage the timeline for the weekend. Three months out from my wedding, she took all of my contracts and invoices that I had secured up to that point and became the main point of contact for my vendors. It was very important to me that I stayed in the loop on the conversations and decisions, but she managed all of the nitty gritty details. She attended my final vendor and venue walkthroughs which was critical in making sure all of the final details were set. There were a lot of small decisions and questions that she gave me guidance on that I never would have known if I was doing this myself. I always felt like she understood our vision as a couple for what we wanted and was always on the same page as us.
The weekend of my wedding, she was there to manage all of the set up and timeline of the day, really allowing me to be in the moment with my family and friends and not worry about adjustments or logistics. Her services exceeded my expectations from start to finish - she literally loaded the bus at the end of the night with all of my purchased items (signs, table #s, cards etc.)
I highly recommend hiring GME for your wedding weekend!! We loved every minute of working with Gina!
Response from the Vendor on 05/10/2022
You are the sweetest!!! I am so happy Jennifer connected us and I was able to celebrate with you and Kyle!!! Your organizational skills were top-notch which allowed my job to go smooth & stress-free!! Wishing you all the best
Planning a wedding from thousands of miles away is a completely daunting process, but Gina made it all possible. Gina is extremely responsive and was on top of everything (and I mean everything) from the start. We started working with Gina several months out from our wedding and by keeping in touch with her and filling out her checklist, everything came together in a very manageable way. Honestly, we could not have pulled off our wedding without Gina and her wonderful team. When looking for a wedding planner, we mostly wanted someone who would be responsive and proactive when it came to our vision for the day. Gina was all of that and more! We could not have asked for a better wedding planner to work with, from ensuring the proper candles were used in our centerpieces to handling a mini bridal freak out over the color of the yarn covering stands for bistro lights, Gina was a rockstar. I have already recommended her to a friend and will continue to recommend her to any and all brides I know in South Florida. Gina and her team really are the best at what they do and I cannot thank her enough for all of her hard work pulling off my dream wedding!

We could not be more delighted or satisfied with our experience working with Gina and the GME team. From our first "getting to know you" call to helping pack up our to go ride at the end of the evening, Gina was always organized and completely prepared. She was a complete joy to work with and we always knew we were in good hands. Gina demonstrated patience and enthusiasm as she guided us through the process of wedding planning from budgeting to venue and vendor selection, and more. Gina also had great vendor contacts, who were equally professional, making our overall experience that much more seamless.
Gina was warm in every interaction and responsive to all of our many questions over the more than 12 months that we planned our wedding. Of all of the qualities that a wedding planner can/should have, that was probably the most important and the most refreshing about Gina and GME. When we started to have several last minute cancelations due to guests contracting COVID and we were feeling despondent, Gina stepped in and made our wedding day feel as special as it should. As to the wedding day itself, we arrived with full confidence that Gina would ensure that things ran smoothly so that we could be present and enjoy all those once in a lifetime moments. We were not disappointed.
We cannot recommend Gina and GME highly enough.

As wedding photographers, we worked with Gina for a large and elaborate wedding and she was absolutely amazing. She was extremely knowledgable, incredibly organized, as well as kind and conscientious. She had the ability to perceive the needs of the couple, the wedding party, the vendors, and every moving part of the wedding throughout the day. Her foresight into each step of the day was impeccable down to every last detail. She jumped into any role that was needed for a very fast paced and intricate wedding. In observing various wedding planners throughout Florida, we see that it takes a uniquely dynamic person to coordinate and manage these events and Gina stands out above the rest as a planner who does this with the utmost grace. She was awesome and we give her our highest recommendation as a fellow vendor.

It was not only a pleasure reconnecting but working with you was absolutely amazing! You were so fun to work with and I really loved the time we spent together! Thanks for trusting me with Haley & Jordan's big day! <3
I've worked with other event planners in the past and Gina is by far the best! Our daughter's wedding was seamless due to the incredible efforts of Gina (her assistants were so involved and helpful). Since I did most of the planning for my daughter, I worked directly with Gina for one year. She kept me on track and offered excellent advice. Gina was always a phone call and email away (I sent her many :~) and responded quickly -- this was very important to me. She was so helpful in dealing with the vendors and their contracts. The wedding day went so smoothly due to her efforts. She is extremely organized and efficient. My daughter appreciated Gina's ability to listen to her needs. Gina is passionate about her work which is an invaluable trait in this field. I recommend "Gina Marie Weddings & Events" without hesitation.

Best mom to work with!! Thank you for all you did to make this planning process so smooth!! I truly enjoyed working with you and will miss you!!! Wishing you all the best and so happy I was able to be a part of your daughter's journey!! <3
I cannot recommend GME enough! Gina is like the fairy god mother of wedding planners. Because of her our wedding was the best it could have ever been. It truly felt magical. Gina genuinely takes pride in her work and loves what she does.
When looking to hire a wedding planner we looked for someone who was organized, efficient, and had an eye for design. Gina was all of these things (and not to mention an incredibly kind human). Throughout the entire planning process, I never had to worry. Whenever we were faced with a problem I’d tell my significant other “It’s fine, Gina will handle it” and she always did so efficiently and professionally.
On the day of our wedding, we had a sudden change in weather forecast resulting in us needing to change the location of the reception and put up a tent. It was extremely last minute, but Gina handled it like a true professional. She was calm, reassuring, and coordinated everything with the vendors so well. Our friends/family have not stopped talking about how great our wedding was. Hands down the best money we spent throughout our wedding.
Response from the Vendor on 02/14/2022
You made me cry!! This was so sweet and I loved working with you!! I know the day was stressful making that call but I think it turned out so beautiful! You and Travis were great to work with and I am so happy to have been a part of your day!!
We hired Gina to be our day of coordinator for our wedding that was supposed to happen in 2020. I had most of the details already planned but needed someone to make sure the day ran smoothly. Enter covid and 2 more years of wedding planning. Gina went above and beyond during all of our postponed weddings and changed plans. She stuck with us through everything and was there to communicate with all of our vendors every time we had to change our date.
When the day finally came, it was everything we could have imagined and more. Gina made sure every detail was exactly as I had pictured and made sure everything ran smoothly. If you want to enjoy your night and have the wedding you’ve always dreamed of, Gina is for you!

d although this journey was long, it was so wonderful planning with you and John! Wishing you two all the best <3
From the start Gina put me at ease. I am very organized and like to have all the details figured out for everything , but with working two jobs and all that goes into planning a wedding it was way too much for me to handle. I felt comfortable after meeting with Gina, and enjoy the process more.
I was not originally looking for a planner! I did so much research and really thought I could handle it all. Initially, planning wasn’t too bad. I had my detailed excel spreadsheet, Pinterest boards, and folders with all information. But there is so much more that goes into organizing and planning. Details that I didn’t even think of ! There would be no chance our day would have gone as smoothly if it wasn’t for Gina and her assistant, Rachel.
Even though all my focus was on the wedding, various aspects of life required attention. She helped take a significant amount of stress away. The weekend of, many things (out of our control ) occurred. We even were surprised with a tornado warning a few hours before the wedding! I did not stress or worry once. The whole day was a fairytale and way more than we could have ever wanted.
If you are on the fence, do it. It’s your day and you deserve it!
Response from the Vendor on 01/18/2022

Gina was amazing! From our first call to my wedding day, Gina made planning as easy as possible and was always there to answer questions. She's very knowledgable and makes sure you have anything and everything you'd need to help with the planning process. If you're thinking about working with Gina for your wedding, do it!

You’re the best & seriously had the BEST PARTY I’ve been too!! You and Mike were ready to party & seriously had the best time celebrating with you both!! Wishing you all the best 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Gina is the best wedding planner of all time. We mean it. We knew hiring a wedding planner was going to be helpful and necessary but we had no idea it could be this good. Gina made us feel like we were her only clients. She answered all our questions quickly and went out of her way to help us with vendor referrals and solutions to problems we came across during the planning. She has incredible taste in design and process and beautifully balanced helping to support our vision while also giving honest feedback based on her expertise when she felt something could be done a better way. Throughout the planning process, it quickly became clear that Gina had everything under control and she could confidently handle any issues we came across. On the day of the wedding, we had two major hiccups with vendors: our security company was MIA and our flowers were the wrong colors (both issues unrelated to Gina’s amazing planning). She solved them both efficiently and calmly. We were so struck by how effective she communicated these issues to us without adding stress on us and confidently reassuring us that she had it handled. In addition to this, she is a person we genuinely wanted to be around. She’s easy to talk to, relaxed, and has a commanding presence that makes you feel secure and confident that you are in good hands. Her team of assistants were just as professional and helpful as she was. They each went out of their way to make our wedding the best it could be. After the wedding, while reminiscing about how amazing the day was, we kept saying to each other , “wow thank goodness for Gina.” We could not be bigger fans and can’t recommend her and her team enough. We would trust Gina to plan our wedding a millions times over.

crying!!!! Chloe this is the sweetest review - thank you so much for your kind words! Thank you for reminding me what the meaning of weddings are - celebrating with those you love & really focusing on who you are as a couple. You and Evan were ...
such a pleasure to work with and I am so honored to have been a part of your day!! <3
I can’t say enough about how amazing Gina and her team are! We hired Gina for her full service and that was the best decision we made during the entire wedding planning process. I could not have imagined going through the wedding planning process without her. Gina is extremely detail oriented, organized, and knowledgeable in her field. Our wedding was on the West coast of Florida and Gina is on the East Coast, but that did not make a difference in the quality of her service and knowledge of the industry/vendors in the area. Like many others, we had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid. This decision was devastating but Gina walked us through every step, contacted all our vendors, got all new contracts and made it seem like the smoothest process. She makes the wedding planning process stress free and thinks of every little detail, things I never even knew we needed to think about. She makes sure you stick to your budget while still trying to meet your every hope & desire for your special day. Our wedding day was the most magical day and it was all thanks to Gina and her team. I will never forget the reveal to our reception space before all our guests entered and seeing the vision we had for our wedding day come to life. Tears came to my eyes at how perfect it was and how she made sure every detail, within our budget, was made possible. We could not have asked for a more smoothly ran wedding day! Our guests have all made comments about how perfect and smooth our wedding day was and that is all thanks to Gina and her team.

<3333333 I LOVED WORKING WITH YOU! Everything about the day was so magical and I am so happy to have had the opportunity to work together! I can't wait to see more photos!!!
Gina is the absolute best! I am beyond thankful for everything Gina and her team did to make my wedding spectacular. My friend Patrice had used Gina to help plan her Miami wedding in 2 months after she was forced to cancel her Italy wedding. I thought I could handle wedding planning on my own, but after speaking with Patrice and how much Gina helped her, I emailed Gina that night to schedule a call. From the very beginning, Gina and I click and this entire process was like working along side one of my best friends. She was very patient with all my questions and kept me grounded and sane when I wanted to fly off the rails. Her attention to detail and organization skills really helped me and it made such a difference. It is obvious that Gina truly loves what she does and it shows. When the day of the wedding came, all of my vendors/staff at the venue were on the same page and all working along side Gina. Thinking back, there is no way I would have been able to finalize the wedding day on my own. Gina took care of everything and made sure everything was perfect so that I could relax and enjoy the day! Not only did everyone comment on how beautiful and wonderful the wedding was, but so many of our guests had so many amazing things to say about my wedding planner! I highly recommend Gina and her team! Gina-thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything! We couldn’t have done it without you!

! Thank you for trusting us and taking us along this journey with you both!! Cheers to forever and please keep in touch!!! <3
Oh, my goodness, I do not even know where to start with this review. After two postponements due to COVID, we were finally able to re-schedule my daughter’s wedding with a change in venue and 100 less people. Our new venue suggested I get a day of the event planner. I had no idea what that was or even knew I needed one, but boy, we sure did! After interviewing three possible companies, I chose Gina Marie Events. After speaking with Gina, she had all the right questions and answers since I had no idea what to ask and I just knew she was the one for us. With our vendor contracts already in place, she took over all the details, confirming, arranging, scheduling, re-confirming and her timelines were spot on! Such attention to details, (even things I did not even think of), she was on it. From picking up the wedding favors and decoration for the venue, attending rehearsal and wrangling the wedding party through the procession a couple of times. I do not even know how many times she went back and forth between the hotel and venue the day of, but all I know is she made the day effortless. We had one issue with the bride’s bouquet, and she was on it, she called the florist, and they were back fixing it long before pictures were taken. I could go on and on of all things she did, well worth it and more! I cannot even begin to express our gratitude to Gina and her staff for a perfect day! She is truly the Best!

ank you for always being so responsive and a joy to work with!
Gina was the absolute BEST! From months leading up to our wedding to the tiniest of details on wedding day, Gina made sure everything was perfect. She made wedding planning a breeze. She made sure every detail from the flowers to the food were perfect and exactly what we wanted. She was awesome gathering our crazy group of friends and family and ensuring our wedding day was stress-free. Literally every detail was perfect and when something happened, Gina was there to step in and fix it (even down to my ruined makeup after our first look). If Gina could plan my life, I would allow her!!!

If anyone were to ask me what the best money spent for our wedding was, My Husband and I would say Gina, HANDS DOWN! She was our month of coordinator and our magical day wouldn't have been possible without her. From the second we met her, we knew we had to have her help us on our big day. She always had our best interest in mind and helped turn every idea we had into reality. She responded to every email and text so promptly, and she was my point of contact for everything. She's super knowledgeable, incredibly organized, and always gave us her honest opinion. My entire dream and vision for my wedding was to get married outside. The morning and afternoon of my wedding, there was nonstop rain. My anxiety and stress level was through the roof but Gina was constantly checking in on me, to reassure me that everything would be okay and that she had backup options and plans if it were warranted. Thankfully, the sun peaked out just in time and we were able to have our ceremony and reception outside just as I had hoped for. Gina and her assistant, Madison, continued checking in on my husband and I throughout the night and made sure we were always okay and had everything we wanted/needed. Ugh, I cant stress enough how vital she was to our wedding day success! Thank you for everything, Gina!

Hiring GME for our wedding was the greatest decision we have ever made! Gina went above and beyond for us in every way possible. From the moment we met, she was all in. Gina had been planning with us for the past year. With every question and problem she always had the solution. I have never met someone who is so confident and capable in their profession. Gina always made sure our plans were perfect, no matter the situation. When hiring a wedding planner I had no idea what I was looking for, but I can tell you now that Gina was everything we needed and more! Her kind soul, hard work and amazing service made us appreciate her in more ways than one. Not only has Gina been the BEST wedding planner, she has also been an amazing friend. Without a doubt, I would recommend GME over and over again. She helped us create the wedding of our dreams and we can’t wait for her to plan all of our future events!

Ah Bri you are the sweetest! Working with you over this past year has been so much fun & leaving each other on the wedding day was so heartfelt!!! Please keep in touch & I can't wait to see where this journey takes you and J.J.
Gina was a godsend as MOB and bride were in different states until week of wedding. She kept everyone on track to get things accomplished and was there when a crisis happened with the florist a week before the wedding. She helped us through "day of" rain that cancelled outdoor plans. Great person to have on your team. Karen J
