Yes. You need a day of coordinator(at least). Yes. You need to hire Delia. Yes. She WILL turn up at your reception.

We had an amazing experience working with Delia and her team! There is no question that Delia loves what she does. Her professionalism, creativity, and organization are unmatched. Delia made the planning process an absolute breeze. She has well-established relationships with all of the top NOLA wedding vendors, and helps us select the best MUA, photographer, videographer, florist, chair/lounge rental company, etc. She also knew exactly how to talk me off the edge during my “bride moments.” We purchased the month of/day of package, but Delia was available whenever I needed her (even if it was 6 months before her services were actually supposed to begin). Our wedding day was a fairytale. I was completely stress-free. Delia and her team took care of every little detail so I that I could stay in the moment and truly enjoy my day. Delia is definitely #blackgirlmagic personified. Hire her!

Delia is AMAZING.She was recommended to me by my photographer and she did not disappoint!! I booked her for day of services and she made sure to check in with me to see if I was on track and was great at recommending vendors for me to reach out to. If I couldn’t get in contact she took over that contact. I TRULY do not know what I would have done without her. A lot of people tried to convince me I didn’t need a planner and I am so glad I did not listen. Delia and her team made my wedding day a dream —all of the guests were so impressed at how smoothly everything went and how professional the event was ran. Delia made sure we had everything we needed. I had an earring emergency the day of and her and her team went and found me the perfect pair to wear for my big day! Delia is also very knowledgeable about vendors and has so many suggestions specific to my flowers,cakes, and venue that I would have never thought about. I honestly was sad at the end that we wouldn’t get to chat anymore lol! The only thing I can say is I wish I had booked her sooner. Our wedding day could not have been anymore perfect.

Delia and her team were AMAZING! I was on the fence about getting a planner because I was having a micro wedding but I’m SO happy I got a planner and that it was Delia. Not only did she make herself available to answer all my questions and concerns, but the day of the wedding, I was completely stress free. Her and her team were there every sec, helping not only me but my family. Her design of my florals were beautiful and everything was even better than I could have ever imagine. I want her to plan every party I have lol. Absolutely love her and I would highly recommend her to any bride! You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Delia and the LCD team again for making our day amazing!

Hiring Delia was hands down one of the best things we could’ve done. She was very very helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. The communication was excellent, even if we called late at night, she’d answer and have a solution to whatever situation we brought to her. We told her what our idea wedding was, and she brought it to life and then some. When it came down to wedding day, Delia had our schedule written out and made sure everything went as planned. We couldn’t thank her enough for everything she did for us. At first I questioned what was the purpose of having a wedding planner, but after having Delia apart of the team, I strongly recommend her to anyone that is planning on hiring a wedding planner. Our big day was amazing because of her! Not only did she plan the day our family became one, but she is forever family. Thank you to Delia and her amazing team

We absolutely LOVE Delia and loved working with her. We cannot talk about her and compliment her enough! Delia was like a fairy godmother who came into our lives and made the whole wedding process from start to finish wonderful. We did not think we would ever be able to have our dream wedding but Delia and her team made it happen! Our wedding was initially scheduled for May 2020, however we had to reschedule due to COVID . Delia was a life saver and handled everything with our vendors and made the whole postponement so easy on us. She made the whole day absolutely beautiful, and the whole process completely stress free. She provided excellent communication and went above and beyond what we ever could have asked of her.

My husband and I are out of state and knew that we needed someone in New Orleans to help us plan the wedding, and we're very thankful that we chose Delia to be our planner. She's very professional, understanding, and will walk you through everything she's doing . There was even a point in time where we went through a financial hardship and wasn't sure if the wedding was going to happen, and Delia was extremely supportive the entire time. Everybody who was at our wedding said they had a great time and it was one of the best weddings they've gone to, and we're thankful for Delia and the LCD team for helping us with our wedding!

My experience with Delia was nothing short of amazing. She went above and beyond the call of duty. From the moment of our first consultation, I could tell she was the planner for me. She is very passionate about what she does and gives it her all. Her attention to detail is what I admire most. Everything I asked for, from minor to major details, she made it possible. She also knew when to keep it real with me and give her best guidance in areas I may have been unsure about. Working full time and wedding planning was no easy task, but with her help, I was always rest assured that all would go according to plan. She always made herself available and even though I wasn’t her only client at the time, I truly felt like I was her top priority. That spoke volumes to me. My husband and I had the time of our life at our wedding, she made sure of it. Our guests were given an experience of a lifetime. Our day turned out to be beyond our greatest imagination, and there are never enough words to thank Delia King and the LCD Events team for making that happen. I’m a client for life.

Delia, is the best planner any couple would dream of, I met with Delia when I first announced that I was engaged. Delia, started from front to back with all of the specifics and of course our budget, and then it begun., she walked us threw the entire process without letting go, she along with her assistants were the consummate guides in directing us to every detail. Again, she provided a lot of imagery and creativity as well as elegance. The results were magical. Consequently, if you’re looking for something different then the expected, different then the norm and wedding standard. You should call Delia King for your planning needs.

Delia saved our whole wedding! We were lucky to have been recommended her while on the search for a new planner half way through our planning journey. From our first phone conversation we knew she was the perfect choice! She quickly understood everything we were about and helped us create exactly what we had envisioned. Delia was very easy to communicate with, she was always available to talk to day or night. She is very personable, talking with her is like talking to a friend. She went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect and we didn’t have to worry about anything. All her vendor recommendations were a great fit for our wedding. Delia’s decor design for our wedding more than exceeded all of our expectations, even though she had walked us through design elements and we had an idea of what it would look like. The day of the wedding went smooth because of her and her staff. She was on top of EVERYTHING! From requests from the guests, grabbing us for important photos, to returning all our belongings to our room at the end of the night, she thought of everything. We would without hesitation recommend Delia for her planning and decor services.

Where do I start? I reached out to Delia 3 WEEKS before our wedding, after unexpectedly parting ways with my original planner of 12 mths. I had never met or spoken to Delia before, but she talked to me for 30min. as if we had known each other for years. She was so compassionate and took me on as a client although she had two other weddings the same weekend as ours. She immediately got to work that night, reviewing my contracts, texting ideas, etc. She quickly relieved all of my anxiety about having an unfinished wedding 3 weeks out. She scheduled a last minute meeting with my florist, completed my reception design, gathered quotes for remaining elements i.e. car svc, chairs, dance floor, etc. all within a week. Her reputation precedes her and her contacts were amazing. Each vendor she put me in contact with said “Oh we know/love working with Delia!” or “Oh your in good hands”. She worked with my candlelight/rental vendor to rearrange parts of the budget where I was wasting money and reallocated those funds to get more “bang for my buck” and it turned out gorgeous! Delia made sure to walk me through everything, send reminders, and return every call & text asap! Stacy and Meghan handled everything the day of, as Delia’s other wedding was the same time. They were complete ANGELS and did not miss a beat! And even then, Delia still managed to sneak away to stop by and check on my husband and I before the reception started. I could go on and on about my experience, but in short...she is fast, responsive, budget conscious, well connected, and knows her stuff! My only regret is not finding her sooner. She and her team were such a blessing! We are forever grateful.

What can I say about Delia??? Let me start off with she is incredibly wonderful to work with! I was planning my wedding from out of state and spoke with a few planners but after my initial conversation with Delia I knew that is who I wanted to work with. I felt like I was talking to a friend and not someone solely to get my business. Even though I booked her month of planning package we communicated from July 2018 until my wedding which was on 10/13/2019! She recommended vendors since I am not from the area, she calmed me down through my moments, she powered through my brain dump emails and text messages (lol) and never made it seem like I was bothering her or getting on her nerves. Even though we had to make some changes she made sure my husband and I got the top things we wanted. The highlight for our guests was the second line parade and she pretty much coordinated everything we just had to show up and we had a blast. She also did the design and OMG it was beautiful!!! I pretty much showed her pictures of what I liked and what we could do budget wise and she delivered. We're still getting compliments about how beautiful everything was! If you are looking for a planner and designer for your event that actually cares about you and your vision then go with Delia!!! With love, Malorie Simon-Weathers

Delia and her team did an awesome job! Everything was gorgeous and the fact that Delia made herself available anytime of any day to answer calls, texts etc. made things that much better! Thanks LCD! We appreciate your help!

The Lavishly Chic Events staff was great! They helped with every aspect of our wedding planning. The process was easy and worry free. We did not have to stress on our day as they handled everything. They communicated consistently and worked hard to make sure we were happy and stayed under budget. One of the best decisions we made was to hire Delia and her team.

Delia King will make the vision you have for your event a reality! There’s is no doubt about it! If you really want to know what to look for in the perfect wedding/event planner, READ TO THE END! I’d like to to start by thanking Delia, her husband, and the LCD Events team for making our wedding day a dream come true! When my fiancée (now wife) came to her, we had a vision but our ideas were scrambled across the things we saw on Instagram and Pinterest. We desperately needed someone to guide us through the pieces and make our wedding day dreams and wishes a reality. Once we gave Delia that task, the woman went to work y’all!!! She was always a call, text or email away. She always responded quickly, and I would even wake up to her and my fiancée on the phone late at night discussing details when necessary! In the midst of all the planning, obstacles came and went. However, you could hear and feel Delia’s positivity at every turn! She recommended amazing vendors, coordinated and communicated with those outside of her recommendations, and demanded the absolute best out of each of them! Best of all she kept us in the loop at every step. When something changed or fell through, she came to us immediately with options and solutions at hand. You could feel that she was truly on your side, that she had taken on your wants as if they were her own. All I asked was that the wedding day go as smooth as possible. The entire wedding ran ahead of schedule and my wife and I were able to enjoy our day without a hitch. Delia and Lavishly Chic Events is the one for your event! Tell her what you need, then give it over to her and she will lead you to your dream come true! Thank you once again Delia and LCD Events! Adrian and Fefe

Where do I even begin? Delia is so beyond phenomenal. I can barely put into words the amount of passion, dedication, and creativity she gives to her clients. I was so stressed out trying to plan my wedding on my own and then I found Delia. She helped me find and book the best vendors in the city. Her planning process is flawless; she listens to your ideas while offering her expertise every step of the way. The attention to pays to detail is unmatched. Signing with Delia was the best decision I made during the planning process. The design and coordination were better than I ever dreamed they could be. Her work is absolutely breathtaking and she is such a joy to be around. I am telling you...BOOK HER. You will not find a better planner. She is the one. She is honest, upfront, and realistic with her clients and always makes sure we are her top priority. If I know anything, it is that Delia King #1 person you need on your team. She is a problem solver and a creative genius. She makes dreams come true. I highly, highly recommend Delia. BOOK. HER.

We contacted Delia having less than a year left until our big day. We had a few our vendors already selected however she took over planning as if she was there from day 1. I gave Delia my vision and she completely delivered. Delia was always available for any questions no matter the time of day. She was able to solve so many problems that we weren’t even aware of. She made my wedding planning process stress free. Delia went above and beyond and delivered the wedding of my dreams. In my opinion she is the best planner out there!

Delia and her team were phenomenal. They went above and beyond with every aspect of my wedding. From the planning to the day of the creativity, thoughfullness, time and effort Delia put in was more than I could have imagined possible. Delia was an absolute visionary. The decor was stunning, unique, and exactly as requested. She even added elements that I had never even considered and made it truly magical. I was worried about budget going in, but she not only had me rest assured, but we even came in under budget in the end. I couldn't recommend her highly enough, and plus, she is an absolute joy to be around!

I cannot speak more highly of Delia’s services. When I sought out a wedding planner, I didn’t know that with Delia I’d also be landing an expert in the industry with a huge network of connections near and far for everything I dreamed up! I felt comfortable making requests and throwing ideas at Delia— she handled all of my crazy curveballs without batting an eye, and nailed it! She has the most meticulous eye for details and saw me through every step of the way down the aisle while working with my budget flawlessly. I couldn’t imagine going through my special day with ANYONE else by my side. Thank you to Delia and her team for calming my nerves and making my dream wedding come to life!

Delia and her team were amazing! I was an out of town bride and I hired Delia as my month of coordinator because she made me feel relaxed and confident that she could and would handle everything. Delia was a text or email away. She helped answer any questions I had. She provided advice when I needed it. She helped execute a FABULOUS second line that our guests cannot stop raving about. She helped me find a Baptist pastor 2 weeks before the wedding when my original plans fell through. If there were any issues the day of I didn’t hear of it. Delia and her team also created my lighting. The choices really set the romantic ethereal mood I wanted. Lastly, the surprise treat at the end of the reception from Delia reminded me why we fell in love with New Orleans! Without hesitation, I highly recommend Delia.

How can I possibly describe how amazing Delia and her team is?! We worked with Delia from day one and she and her team helped us to create the most absolutely perfect wedding we could have dreamed of. She managed all of our vendors, gave us amazing recommendations, and made sure to stay within our budget. She was incredibly responsive via email and by phone and answered all of our questions and addressed our needs/concerns as soon as possible, every time. Her eye for amazing design and ability to create a vision and execute on it are 100% on point. Her calm demeanor, friendliness, and professionalism makes you feel at ease while you're going through some of the most stressful times in your life. On our wedding day she took care of everything, making sure everyone was in good spirits while managing vendors and setup at the same time. She took my crazy ideas and somehow turned them into reality and it was absolute PERFECTION. Our wedding exceeded our wildest expectations and it wouldn't have been possible without Delia and her team - not one detail was missed. I feel blessed to have found her and trusted her to make my wedding amazing, and truly feel like I have gained a friend! Look no further, she will help you plan any event and make sure it exceeds your dreams and expectations!

OMG...where do I start...Delia was heaven sent to me and my hubby. I thought I could plan a wedding by myself, but that was a HUGE negative. I thought I knew what I wanted, but I really had no clue on what I wanted. Delia assured me that she would take care of us, and she did just that. Our venue was absolutely beautiful. She made sure everything ran beautifully, and smoothly from beginning to end. People are still talking about how beautiful our wedding was, and I owe it all to Delia, and her team. If you are in need of a planner, who not only cares, but makes sure all of your needs, and wants are met, please consider Delia. The Henry's 10/28/17

Words cannot describe my husband and my love for Delia and her team. She went above and beyond for us and everyone at our wedding was awestruck at her design and execution of our wedding from start to finish. We are from Chicago and planning a destination wedding in New Orleans was overwhelming, but with Delia and her team, we did not stress. She was organized and had a way of calming you down because you knew she could handle anything. Her entire team was flawless. She knew amazing vendors and organized ever contract with amazing negotiation skills. We hosted a welcome dinner at an air bnb the night prior to the wedding and she even organized and helped with that. She handled over served guests, angry air bnb owners, cancelled parades and everything in between. She was legitimately our angel. She was by far my best decision I have made to date in my adult life...besides saying yes to my now husband. My grandma is still raving about her. Hire her team!!! You will be so happy you did.

I don't know where to begin with just how grateful I am to have had Delia help me through my planning process and the day of. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have made it through the day without her. She took care of so many issues that arose that I wasn't even aware of and made sure we stayed on track and that everything that was promised and paid for was delivered and executed as scheduled. I felt like I had a sister helping me through the day and not just a wedding planner. My family and friends loved her and her team as well and was really impressed by how smoothly things went. I'd highly recommend Lavishly Chic Events to anyone who wants to have a carefree wedding experience.

Delia, is an amazing coordinator/planner/ new found friend! I love her and o truly enjoyed working with her! Delia is the epitome of professionalism. She was there for me anytime day or night. She was so attentive to every detail and aspect of my day from day one. I would recommend her to anyone seeking help with a wedding or special event.

When I say that Delia and her team went above and beyond, it's an understatement! I quickly learned during the planning process that I needed help planning, as there are so many little things to do and so many things I didn't even know that I needed to do! I highly recommend hiring Delia before you sign any contracts because she can help you look out for pitfalls. I booked my venue on my own and wished I had hired Delia first to help negotiate the details. But she ended up negotiating them on the back-end and working her magic! Delia is always prompt and professional and she delivers. I was a budget conscious bride and Delia stayed on top of things for me because she knew how much I wanted to spend. There is no way I could have done everything myself, especially the day of coordination. I was able to be more present and enjoy the moment because I trusted that Delia was on top of things. Hire them! You won't regret it!

Delia was outstanding. We hired her a month prior to our wedding to pull our plans together and make them become a reality. Being an out of town bride with a last minute venue change, I was super stressed and unable to come to New Orleans to visit the new venue. Delia took care of everything I was concerned about and thought of things I never would have. We are so happy that we hired her and will likely use her again for future events!

I loved working with Delia! She's well-organized, efficient, thoughtful, and a joy to be around!

I am incredibly impressed with both the quality and professionalism of Delia's service. Delia worked with me every step of the way which gave me the freedom to focus on the most important parts of a wedding, like writing my vows! I live in San Francisco and hosted my wedding in the mountains of North Carolina which meant there was a lot of research, phone calls, and decisions to be made. Both my husband and I have demanding careers and while we did not have the time to plan the wedding, we still had specific preferences and wanted it to be perfect. Enter Delia. She carefully and thoughtfully identified all the decisions to be made, conducted thorough research to make sure I had the best vendors at affordable prices. She communicated often and was extremely efficient with our time together, which I appreciated! Overall, I could not have had a better experience and this translated into a perfect, memorable, and meaningful wedding celebration. Both leading up to and importantly, on the day of my wedding, I thought of nothing but spending time with my family and guests and savoring the excitement and joy of marrying my best friend.

When my daughter and I first began planning her wedding, we thought what everyone else thinks - oh, we don't need a planner, we can do this ourselves. Well, that was not the case. After we scheduled our consultation with Delia, we were missing many details. As the wedding date got closer, we were frazzled and calling Delia voicing our concerns. She assured us that everything was taken care of and not to worry because she handling everything to ensure that my daughter’s day was special. Not only did she execute my daughter’s vision for her wedding, she made us comfortable enough to trust her. On the day of the wedding, we were blown away. The added personal touch where needed just made the wedding and reception even more fabulous. Everything was outstanding and looked better than we could ever imagine. We definitely would do business with her again!

Lavishly Chic Events by Delia made my daughter's special day the best day imaginable! She listened to what we had to say, then took our vision and turned it into reality, totally exceeding our expectations. I felt she was able to negotiate well with the vendors, and most importantly was able to stay within the budget allocated. I highly recommend LCD Events...Delia is AWESOME at what she does!

There aren't enough good things I can say about Delia. She was recommended through a friend, and couldn't be more glad to hire her. She was outstanding and exceeded her duties exceptionally. She participated in several vendor consultations, provided suggestions and advice that I would have never considered, and was an all-star on my wedding day. I am very grateful for Delia. Our day was smooth, calm and stress-free, largely in part of her. Hire her- she is worth every penny and more! 3.19.2016

Delia and her team last year round October 17, 2015 one of the best ever! I will never forget she worked with me on our anniversary vowel renewal. Delia listened to my vision and gave us the most beautiful day! The planning process was easy and seamless. We were always informed and she stayed within our budget. The attention to detail and quality of work was impeccable. I would definitely recommend Lavishly Chic for your planner now and always. You won't be disappointed!

We were so grateful to have worked with Delia and her team. She was very professional, punctual, and pleasant. She handled every detail for us and kept us informed throughout the entire process. Our wedding day was stress free as she promised. We were able to enjoy our family and friends. The night was magical and I wouldn't change a thing. We are happy to have worked with Delia!
