At the heart of it, I love love and I live for a good party. That’s what guided me to wedding world over 8 years ago when I moved to Las Vegas from Pittsburgh, PA. I am the proud mama of two little girls who like to keep me on my toes. When my creativity isn’t being channeled into styling spectacular events, it’s being used for home remodeling. My husband and I have renovated 2 houses so far and almost always have a project going. I love to cook and am most often found in my (newly renovated) kitchen. Feeding others is my love language. I can't wait to chat about you and your love story.

She kept the planning process on track, made the entire process stress-free and and flawlessly executed every detail on our big day. From the moment we first met with Cicely, we felt completely at ease.

Cicely and her team were absolutely phenomenal! From the first call to the last detail, they handled every aspect of my wedding with precision, creativity, and such genuine care. Even my other vendors said Cicely is the best planner in town and it showed! My wedding day was smooth and stress-free, all thanks to her seamless planning. Any little hiccups that arose were met with Cicely’s calm, resourceful attitude – she handled everything gracefully, allowing me to fully enjoy every moment. Cicely, thank you for making our day so incredibly special!

Cicely! How happy we are that we decided to include a day of planner on our wedding day. We had a 60 person wedding, but including a coordinator in this day added so much value. We met with Cicely about 6 weeks out from our date to go over details & she ensured our vendors all had the confirmed timeline prior to our event. Day of, she was a lifesaver, with everything from setting up & taking down decorations, ensuring we were aligned with the timeline, handling anything that may have come up that didn't need the bride/groom, & making sure we ate & were hydrated on the 100-degree day. Cicely is the best mix of assertive & kind, exactly what is needed to support & run an event. Thank you so much!

Cicely helped make our wedding at The Smith Center earlier this year truly unforgettable! The day exceeded our expectations in every way possible, and Cicely and her team played a huge part in that. Her professionalism, organization, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond took so much of the stress off our plate! She put together detailed timelines and coordinated with all of our vendors. On the day of, Cicely and her team ensured that everything ran smoothly -- we didn't have to worry about anything! They even did the little things, like swap out some wilting flowers with fresh ones. We cannot recommend Cicely highly enough!!

Cicely guided us when we needed it, while allowing us to make our own decisions. Day of, Cicely and her team at Graceful Gatherings particularly shined with their attention to detail, efficiency, and execution. We felt totally at ease and taken care of relying on them to make our vision come to life. Cicely exceeded our expectations; run, don't walk to book Cicely!

From the very beginning of finding Cicely she was professional, kind, and well-organized. Cicely offers several wedding planning packages and my husband and I opted for the "partial planning package." This was the perfect package for us because we wanted to be involved in the wedding planning, but wanted someone to really help us put it all together and contact vendors we were having difficulty finding. We met multiple times over the phone and in person leading up to our special day. She made sure our day went smoothly and remained in contact with our venue's event coordinator so they were on the same page. I can't stress enough how much we recommend Graceful Gatherings, thank you so much Cicely!

I had such a great experience with Cicely and her team. Very professional, efficient, and comprehensive. I purchased the partial planning package and it was the best decision I made for my wedding! Cicely helped me with decor, venue layout, scheduling, and day-of operations. Thank you for bringing my vision to life and exceeding all my expectations. I highly recommend Graceful Gatherings!

We absolutely LOVED working with Graceful Gatherings! Planning a destination wedding is not easy, but she literally made it a breeze! Every single thing went so smooth during the planning and the actual wedding and I 110% believe it is because of Cicely and her team. Cicely has the best vendor suggestions too! Every phone call we had was like I was talking to a someone I have known for years! I absolutely loved working with Cicely and I made a new friend :)

I don’t say this lightly… our wedding went 100% as planned and without any issues because of Cicely. She is organized, detailed, and absolutely willing to go above and beyond for every request. She was kind, fun, and totally matched our party vibe for the day! Our family and friends in the Vegas area were joking they want to throw another big party just to be able to have with Cicely work on another event for us. Thank you for everything!!

Cicely's support was fundamental for us to be able to organize our wedding remotely from Switzerland without stress! Always available to answer our questions, with good ideas and 100% transparent about costs. The wedding exceeded our best expectations and the suppliers proposed by Cicely were also great!!! We loved being photographed by Vanessa, the wedding cake was excellent and the design matched exactly what we had asked for, the bouquet was a dream and Cicely even managed to get us the best table in the restaurant even though we were a small group of 11 people and the reception took place at Mon Ami Gabi - we were right in front of the Bellagio fountains!!!!). I recommend her without hesitation!

I don’t even know where to begin!?! Cicely was the BIGGEST help as we lead into and on our special day. I only opted to do day of assistance, but was extremely thankful for all she did.
About 1 month prior to the big day we started talking a lot more frequently. She helped with items I wouldn’t have thought of, like creating a timeline, making sure our centerpieces were big enough, placement of certain decorative items, etc. She was super attentive to all my questions and would respond in a timely manner.
Her biggest goal was making sure no one leaned on the bride and groom the day of so she handled all the communication leading into that day. She was able to assist in setting up my ceremony and reception and even packed it all up and brought certain items like our gifts, and other important items to our hotel room so we didn’t have to worry about it.
She was VERY organized and really took time to walk through my vendors and what each of those looked like detail wise and gave suggestions and input on things I wouldn’t have considered.
Our day was absolutely perfect and I thank her for making that possible. I’d highly suggest her to anyone!

We hired Cicely as our month-of-coordinator for our wedding in April 2023. She came at the recommendation of one of our vendors and after having calls with a few other folks, I felt certain the Cicely would do an amazing job. It was clear she was organized and professional from the start. We had a bit of a complex wedding, with several different venues throughout the day and a lot of DIY decor in lieu of vendors like a florist, decor team, and we even did the linens ourselves. Thanks to her and her assistant, the day went extremely smooth. She also was great at wrangling people with where they needed to be, which was a huge help. I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her!

Book Cicely! She made our day completely perfect. She is extremely organized and concise. We absolutely loved working with her. I am pretty sure I changed my mind on the flowers/decor three times and she nailed the final vision. Also I should mention we only had 4 months to do everything and she pulled it together! She is truly gifted at her career. Cicely thank you again!

Cicely was an absolute dream to work with! I started panicking planning a wedding long distance and not knowing the local area (WV to Las Vegas) a couple of months before the big day. Thankfully, Cicely responded to my request for help and I am so glad she did! She jumped right in and picked up where I left off seamlessly. Not only did she make it possible for me to enjoy my wedding by handling everything, she made our vision come to life with her ideas, decor, creativity, knowledge and access to local vendors and ease to work with. I really can't thank her enough and would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding planner and day-of coordinator in LV!

- Cicely is worth her weight in gold, twice over!! Graceful Gatherings did Day Of coordination for our wedding weekend. She had fantastic recommendations to help me find the last few vendors I was looking for and helped navigate communication with all of the different moving parts of a wedding weekend. She is calm, cool, collected, and so very on top of her game. You will not regret hiring Graceful Gatherings for your event!!

Graceful Gatherings is a master of making it all come together! From the first time we ever spoke to Cicely on the phone, she was so in tune with us as a couple. She was also understanding and patient throughout our entire wedding planning process, and worked endlessly hard to make sure we had what we needed, scrapped what we didn’t, and created a truly beautiful day. She captured the design ideas we had in our head even when we weren’t entirely sure what they were yet. And as a same-sex couple, we felt truly comfortable with her at every step of the process. All our family and friends are still saying it was one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to, and we have Cicely and Graceful Gatherings to thank for that.

Working with Cicely was amazing. We spent about a year together planning my backyard wedding. It was a small wedding but lots of thought and effort went in to it. I honestly couldn't have done any of it without her. Before working with Cicely I was trying to plan my wedding on my own. It was getting to a point where I was so overwhelmed and I was desperate for help! I was so relieved I found Graceful Gatherings.
Cicely worked within our budget, executed every single detail perfectly, and made sure the day went smooth. (Even when my quartet did not show up for the wedding!)
If you are trying to plan a wedding, this is your sign to hire Graceful Gatherings! It is so worth it.

Losing your mind much!? So many details to take care of… and if we are being honest.. you ain’t that person.. lol
That was us as we approached our wedding day.. We had some vendors.. making decor.. but details were falling through the cracks and who was going to be in charge of all the day of stuff!?
Enter Cicely!! From her first contact with us, she put us at ease. Her organization and questions left us feeling like we made the right choice in reaching out to her! She was so easy to work with and took care of all the day of coordinating and setup details..
She really handled every thing that came up.. and I mean come on.. it’s your wedding day… What could go wrong!? Hahahahaha! She dealt with a bus break down that was transporting our wedding party.. vendor hiccups.. and our crazy family!!! She was stellar!! She kept her cool, all while keeping our day running so smooth! Kept our wedding party in line… And made sure the bride and groom were on point until send off! Cicely even followed us around with food, and made sure we got to eat bites while we did our reception mingling duties.. Cicely rocked it!! Thank you so much for making our special day seem so effortless!! Your hard work made it all the more special for us and our whole tribe!! Anyone who chooses you can trust they are in great hands!!

Cicely literally saved the day for our wedding. Our original wedding coordinator ghosted us and we reached out to Cicely to help us. She was extremely quick in her response and organized our day like she had known us for the whole engagement. On the actual day of the wedding she was there every step of the way and made our day run so smoothly. My family raved about her and how extremely helpful she was. I cannot thank her enough for being part of our wedding. I don’t know what we would of done without her.

Hiring Cicely for our month/day of coordination was the best decision we could have made and we could not recommend her more strongly. With our wedding weekend comprising an Indian sangeet, Church ceremony and American reception, and with our friends and families flying in from all over the world, we had our hands full. As we were vetting wedding coordinators/planners, we encountered some who were very experienced but not personable, and others who were personable but not efficient. We were looking for someone who was truly good at their job and whom we could comfortably rely on for our unique weekend celebrations. Cicely was extremely professional, competent, responsive, efficient, and executed our wedding events beyond our already-high expectations. She did tons of research on Indian event decor and went above and beyond to ensure that the Sangeet setup looked exactly, if not better, than what we'd envisioned and planned for. Because of strong winds, our arch backdrop for the Sangeet broke, but Cicely was on top of everything and took the intiative to move the decor sans arch to another spot away from the wind. When we arrived, we couldn't have guessed anything had even gone wrong! Our guests couldn't stop gushing over how beautiful the venue looked and how perfectly everything was executed. Despite so many moving pieces, she was prompt with the tear down and setup for the next day's wedding reception. With regards to vendor management, her many years of wedding planning experience were immediately evident as soon as she took on our wedding just a month prior to the events. She was incredibly detail-oriented and ensured that all the vendors were aligned on every single aspect of both the schedule and flow of events. Her BEO was comprehensive and pushed us to think of the little details we were missing and helped us stay on track with our to-dos. To be completely honest, it's really hard to think of even one thing we wish Cicely could've done better, because she really is THE BEST. If you're on the fence about hiring her for your wedding, please do not hesitate for even a moment. You won't regret it.

Day of Coordinators are so underrated. I found Cicely from Graceful Gatherings through a referral. I am so very happy I went with her! I am an independent personality type, but I knew that on my wedding day, I would need the help. Who wants to work on their wedding day to keep everything organized? Also, who really wants to employee their bridesmaids, family, or friends when they should be enjoying the event? Hire a coordinator and better yet, hire Cicely! Leading up to the event, she was very organized. She would respond to me in a timely manner, she updated the event order with every change I had. She was very patient and kind. On the day of the event, she was able to handle our (tough) friends. She was so helpful with decorating the space to my specs. She listened to my requests and handled them in a professional way. She also helped at the end of the night to clean up and organize the items I brought. I cannot thank her enough. Cicely held my hand the entire time. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat!

When we found Graceful Gatherings and spoke to Cicely Hoffman over the phone. We knew right there and then that our search for a wedding planner was over because Cicely knocked it out of the park. Cicely focused on finding out more about who we are and our interests to help plan the perfect wedding. We didn’t knew anything about weddings. But with the professional service that we received. Cicely helped us with so many great tips and recommendations. Someone who made me feel comfortable from the beginning to the end being by our side through every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better planner/coordinator. I highly recommend Graceful Gatherings.
