There are not enough amazing things to say about Lovely Lemon Events! Emily was just incredible through the whole process! She was always there when I needed a sounding board, was stressed and needed to problem solve! She was so supportive through planning such a special days in our lives! She was so organized and top of things, things I didn't even think of myself. Emily was also our biggest cheerleader, always making us feel confident in our decisions. When it came to our wedding day we didn't have to worry one bit! We knew we were in great hands with her! The day of this amazing duo, Emily & MaryKate made our day run smoothly! Our ceremony/reception venue was all diy and the killed it! They made my vision of our wedding day come to life! We are so glad we chose LLE to be such a critical part of our wedding day!! & The way they care so much for us and our guests was unmatched! We were in the best of hands from beginning to end! We would highly recommend LLE for your planning needs, you won't regret it! We love LLE! <3
Emily from lovely lemon events was a ROCKSTAR. She is knowledgable, patient, and kind. Throughout the process she made SURE that my wishes were carried out and took care of any little oversights I had been overlooking due to the obvious wedding stress. Our meetings over the phone were great, and she really started to shine when we met in person at our venue. She knew all the right questions to ask and offered to pitch in to fill gaps where needed (for example we borrowed her cake knife because we didn't want to buy one.) The day before and day of the wedding she was right there, taking care of everything. We had a snow storm the day before and she even made SURE the venue shoveled the sidewalks so we and our guests could access the chapel and reception hall. On the day of, she showed up early and with an assistant ready to go! Being a bride is hella stressful and I really appreciate that she tried her damndest to figure out small problems without bringing them to me so I could just enjoy getting ready with my bridal party. (I think there was some kind of last minute seating chart discrepency.) When it was go time, she got up on a chair and made sure to lay down the law and do crowd control to get everyone lined up where they were supposed to be. The ceremony was perfect and Emily suggested giving my husband and I a few moments alone after so we could catch our breath. Im so glad I listened to her because that was one of my favorite parts- taking it all in with my new husband while being dressed up and about to party! When the reception hit, Emily and her assistant monica made sure I had my specialty drink as soon as possible and kept my cup full all night long! It was truly the most magical day of my life and I couldn't have done it with out having a wedding planner. If you're thinking about it, DO IT. It's the gift you give yourself. 10/10 recommend.
The one piece of unsolicited wedding advice I now have for people: at the very least, hire a day of coordinator. If I can be more specific, hire Mary Kate. Mary Kate was wonderful leading up to our wedding, asking questions we didn't know to ask and giving us suggestions when we didn't know how to answer. Whenever we had a problem, she had a solution. We simply can't recommend her enough.
Working with Lovely Lemon was the best decision we made when planning our wedding by far! We cannot recommend them highly enough. If you are looking for clear, consistent communication, quality vendor recommendations & expert vendor management, and seamless day-of oversight for your next event, look no further than Lovely Lemon!
Communication:
From our initial overview conversation to the last minutes before our event, Lovely Lemon was never more than a moment away with answers to our questions or concerns. They were always easily accessible and communicative, many times keeping us on track with our initial plan with helpful reminders, status updates and next steps.
Planning & Vendor Management:
The Lovely Lemon team has a detailed list of step-by-step planning considerations that not only put us at ease, but ensured we kept our timeline, budget, and sanity throughout the planning process. They have an extensive set of top-quality local vendors to recommend for any price point and timeline. Without their insider knowledge, we would not have been able to hold our wedding in as short a planning timeline as we ended up having. In addition, the team was fully committed to overseeing every last detail, interfacing professionally, directly, and to great success with our vendors for a seamless experience on the big day.
Day-Of Services:
If you want to be able to enjoy your event and leave the run-of-show in capable hands, Lovely Lemon is your answer. We were able to enjoy every second of our wedding thanks to the detail-oriented professionals at Lovely Lemon. They managed vendor coordination, a rigorous timeline, and last-minute hiccups with ease and without showing a hint of commotion.
All in all, Lovely Lemon Events should be your first & last stop for planning your wedding, anniversary, or other milestone celebration. Professional, responsible, detailed and courteous - if only we could say more about them! Thank you so, so much to the Lovely Lemon team for our amazing wedding and all the incredible memories they made possible.
MaryKate was a dream to work with. Her attention to detail is impeccable and when something went wrong on our day, she handled is with grace and kept us calm and reassured. Words can’t express how awesome she is!
If you’re looking for a day of coordinator, look no further! From the first meeting with Emily, I knew I was in good hands. The attention to detail and all the care that was put into my wedding was amazing. Emily is the most caring, funny, and down to earth individual. I’m beyond thankful for Emily and everything she did to make me feel special on my special day. I did not have to think about the next step as Emily was already ten steps ahead. I’m forever thankful for lovely lemon events and Emily!
We booked MaryKate for our July 2022 backyard wedding. After deciding we were going to do a backyard wedding, I knew I wanted a day-of-coordinator to facilitate everything. MaryKate was so much more than that. She communicated wonderfully with my other vendors, and we met my videographer and photographer for a meeting via zoom, all set up by MaryKate.
She communicated to our caterers, rental companies, and had contact information for people in my wedding party so if something went wrong, she'd know who to contact so she wouldn't bring stress to me on our wedding day. We worked together on the set-up of the backyard, and she ensured it was everything we wanted.
She was so much more than a "day-of-coordinator" because of all the work she was willing to do beforehand. She was available whenever I needed her (via zoom or phone call)! She provided us with suggestions when necessary, but never waivered from what WE wanted on our special day. She (and her assistant) were working ALL DAY on our wedding day. They arrived first thing when we were getting ready, and I left my wedding before she did. They stayed to help clean up and made sure everything was in order.
MaryKate was AMAZING to work with and I 100% recommend her!
Mary Kate was phenomenal with helping us organize and execute our grand 300+ person Indian wedding as our day of coordinator. She was committed to learning the customs and ensuring everything went off smoothly! Thanks to Mary Kate and her team we were not worried about anything on our special day. She went above and beyond our expectations of helping with the flow of the day, decorating and packing up. If you are looking for a professional, reliable, creative and amazing wedding planner or coordinator, Mary Kate is your person. Thanks Mary Kate for making our day perfect!
I would give MaryKate and Emily at Lovely Lemon Events a million stars if I could. From our very first phone conversations I felt so comfortable and the excitement only heightened as we worked together to come up with ideas to execute our wedding perfectly. On the day-of they were an amazing support network that were SO talented at helping my vision come to life. They set up our beautiful backyard wedding oasis perfectly and quickly, helped me set up florals at our altar and even helped pivot when a surprise rain shower came through during our reception. By the end of the wedding process I felt like I gained two new friends and I couldn't recommend them enough.
If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. We weren't sure if we needed a wedding coordinator, but it would have been the biggest mistake if we hadn't hired Lovely Lemon Events for our big day. MaryKate made the entire day so stress-free for us so we could truly be present and have the most incredible wedding. Throughout the wedding we had friends and family coming up to us, complimenting what a wonderful job MaryKate was doing. She ensured our ceremony and reception were set up exactly how we wanted, kept the timeline running smoothly and helped take down everything at the end of the night so we could continue celebrating with loved ones. She even went above and beyond, doing things we didn't expect, like getting us drinks throughout the night! We would recommend MaryKate to anyone having a wedding, especially if you want a wedding coordinator who feels like a wedding guest and friend.
I cannot recommend Lovely Lemon Events enough! MaryKate was absolutely amazing all throughout the process and made my life so much easier with the planning for our wedding. We live in California and planned the wedding in New York and she made planning a wedding across the country SO much better than we thought it could ever be. She was always prompt in responses to questions we had and she had a caring and patient personality. The day of the wedding, MaryKate and her assistant, Emily, made the day flawless. My family members were coming up to me during the wedding day asking who these amazing girls were and wanted their information to work with them in the future. I would highly recommend Lovely Lemon Events to anyone and am forever thankful to them for the beautiful job they did.
I hired LLE for Day Of Coordination and I received so much more. They were with me every step of the way for final vendor meetings and coordinated our entire rehearsal the day before. Emily and MaryKate were fantastic and I highly recommend!
MaryKate and Emily did a fantastic job making sure our wedding off as planned! Prior to the wedding day, MaryKate met with us virtually to help us establish our vision for the day and our timeline. She also assisted by coordinating with vendors and our venue staff prior to and the day of. She thought of the details big and small and made sure that everything went off without a hitch. She problem solved when issues came up and nothing was ever a worry for us! Throughout the day it was so helpful to have someone thinking of and coordinating what was next so my husband and I didn’t have to and could enjoy all the special moments. If you want your day to go off without stress, I would highly recommend MaryKate and Emily at Lovely Lemon Events!
We are so happy we chose LLE to help coordinate our big day. Originally a 2020 wedding, we had to move to 2021 because of Covid. Although most of our planning was done, as we approached our date we quickly realized we would need another hand. MaryKate was great to work with and was so helpful leading up to our wedding day. The whole day went very smoothly thanks to her planning and coordination with vendors. Her assistant Emily was also a huge help as our ceremony and reception were at different venues. We highly recommend Lovely Lemon Events!
MaryKate was exceptional for day of coordination! I did not have a worry on the day of as I knew everything was being managed. She is very organized and attentive. She always responded quickly to any questions and provided guidance when asked for it!
