Mixed Company NYC

, decor, executing, designing & planning) & does it better than we could have even imagined. When I tell you that Tara & her team went above & BEYOND to create the wedding of our dreams that STILL feels like an understatement. When I was first starting out my planning journey - having worked in the wedding industry - I didn't think I needed a wedding planner. Boy was I wrong. From the moment I spoke to Tara on our introductory Zoom call I knew she was the real deal. I interviewed around 10 different wedding planners (Type A bride over here) but from the moment my fiancé and I spoke with Tara she absolutely just GOT us. Not only is she one of the most creative, innovative, talented, magical, hardworking & BADASS people I've ever met she is also the absolute kindest most loving soul on TOP of that which is so incredibly rare to find. Her vision is out of this world, her passion is palpable & she is also just the most amazing person to work with. AND with her full & partial planning services she gave us the most breathtaking florals I have ever seen. The moments she was able to create for us & our guests were just perfection - her attention to detail is unmatched as is her pricing. I interviewed planners literally 10x Tara's cost who weren't even offering a fraction of all that Mixed Company does. Tara does it all. She connected us with other dream vendors, she sourced the most stunning florals I have ever seen & used them to PERFECTION, she DESIGNED all of our signage, she MADE us a full floral wall, she made sure everything ran smoothly, she held our hands literally & figuratively through it all with the best attitude & enthusiasm I have ever seen. The planning PDFs she sent us were meticulous & awe inspiring and then she actually made them a reality!! And every single member of her team that came to execute on the day were just so incredibly kind, helpful & talented as well. Our families, guests & other vendors were all as in love with Tara as we were - our wedding would not have been complete without her. Tara took our vision & made it better than we could have imagined. We had so many of our guests say that our wedding was the most love filled & stunning one that they had ever been to & that would not have been possible without Tara. Tara - we love you so much seriously!!! You were more than our planner you are a friend for life & we still can't thank you enough. Couples - you have a lot of hard choices when it comes to your wedding - hiring Tara & Mixed Company is the best & easiest one you could make :)

ke our theme of “hope” and make everyone in the room that evening feel it—from subtle to significant décor elements. It’s truly an honor to work with Tara and Mixed Company. We will absolutely hire them again for our 2024 benefit.

wn to her energy and bonded over our experiences living around the world. Ultimately, that became the genesis of our wedding theme. Tara took us on a handful of venue tours and the one we went with instantly had us bubbling with ideas that reflected our journey has a couple. But with so many ideas, we weren't sure how they'd all tie together. All we told her is what we wanted it to feel immersive and transportive. She hung on to those inspo words for all 1.5 years of planning. As our concepts developed, Tara was supportive of our vision the whole way — taking our questions, thoughts, concerns, and notes into consideration and executed an unbelievable event beyond what we could've imagined. All of it worked together seamlessly, even last-minute curveballs like a surprise grand entrance and birthday videos! She's a true master of florals and turned around graphics quickly — all with so much humor along the way. We were so in love with her floral work, we're drying and embedding the bouquet and bar pieces into future furniture so we can adore them forever. Thank you Tara for putting together all our crazy ideas. We won't soon forget it.

as not hiring her sooner. She was so calm and collected through the whole process. She's SO organized, all my other vendors even commented on her color coded charts and schedules LOL. I don't even know if anything went awry the day of, because she handled it all effortlessly, without even letting me feel an ounce of the stress or chaos during the event.

producer, and a right hand woman. The day wouldn't have been nearly as spectacular as it was without her. Tara is organized, efficient, knowledgable, and truly such a lovely and amazing person to work with. We hired her about a year out from our big day, and she immediately provided us with tools and resources to stay organized and on track with our planning. Whenever we had a question, she responded in a timely and helpful manner and we knew she was always keeping our best interest in mind. The month leading up to the wedding, we felt like we were Tara's #1 priority. She kept in touch in a way that made us feel like we were taken care of and prepared for our big day. The day of our wedding she was like a wedding fairy, directing our wedding party, seamlessly managing our vendors, offering words of affirmation, providing unconditional support, and always smiling. We couldn't recommend working with Tara and Mixed Company enough. You and your event will be in the best of hands!

d to gold - the decor was fabulous, the timing was flawless (especially of the reception), the vibes were EXACTLY representative of the couple and their love for each other. She took my best friend's vision and not only brought it to life but permanently impressed the weekend on every single guest's memory forever and ever. She's a miracle worker, the kindest soul you'll ever meet, supportive in the best way, and damn good at her job. Hire her immediately <3

essively organized and did not let a single thing fall through the cracks. She was particularly generous with her expertise, giving us extra tips and resources to save us time and $$. She quickly went to TASK on everything that came up, big or small, which left us feeling less stressed and supported before the wedding. On our wedding day Tara was a powerhouse! She Seamlessly coordinated everything from start to finish so we could simply enjoy ourselves the entire time. I felt like we hit the jackpot with all of her years of expertise, AND she’s not just a coordinator but an amazing designer, plant/floral magician, and a professional wedding-stress-reducer. Her magnetic personality and calming presence alone are worth hiring for the event planning process, but she’s truly a renaissance woman and an outstanding professional. Even our wedding guests loved her. We Can’t say enough good things. thank you Tara!!!

hetic and clear love for what she does. The plants and flowers she helps you choose are not only beautiful, but treated by her and the team like they are their children. She keeps you updated, she is accomodating, she is creative, she is fun, she is patient and most importantly, she is kind. I could not recommend her more highly. If you are lucky enough to work with her, I promise you will not regret it or ever forget it!

was so meaningful and greatly appreciated. I can't recommend Tara/Mixed Company enough!

m was a joyful, organized and solution oriented experience. Without a doubt I would hire her and or work with her again and again. She loves what she does and has a creative passion for her work. Her and her team are beyond professional and a joy to be around.

e attitude no water what was going on. She's so much more than a wedding planner, her design aesthetic, particularly with florals, made our wedding beautifully unique and magical. She and her team were amazing to work with.

ed away extremely happy from the experience. Tara's eye for design in combination with her insight into the couple's vision and a vast background of experience made for an evening of dreams come true. We can't wait to work with her on the next one!

one without her. On a more personal level, she handled bride stress like a champ (held my hand when I stress cried, made me laugh until my stomach hurt always). She felt like a friend and I am SO grateful for her. All my friends, family, and vendors are still talking about how fun, funny, and how much of a BOSS lady she is!!!! HIRE HER!!!!

Keleher is a dream to work with - her enthusiasm for the work and sensitivity to a non profit budget are to be heralded.

h year, we theme our gala based off a simple yet encouraging phrase—Tara and her team turn that phrase into the entire décor and atmosphere of the evening. Their décor brings hope to so many in our community facing a challenging situation – and her work has truly elevated how we present our brand. From edible takeaways to step and repeats made from a flower wall, Mixed Company does it all and with a lot of fun! It’s an honor to work with Mixed Company each year and we truly miss them (especially Tara and her positive, radiant attitude) post-event.

rgy, enthusiasm and complete dependability has made the experience a pleasure. The benefit’s decor and style have never failed to produce oohs and ahs from those attending. The overall design has been stunning, and the details like a flower wall that greeted guests or branded chocolates that sent them home happy were always inspired. Tara has been able to accomplish these results and stay within the budget we agreed upon. I have never had a moment of worry once I knew that Tara and Mixed Company were designing our event!

venue looked. It was beyond a dream. Exactly what we envisioned and more. As for coordination - Tara doesnt miss a beat. Kept us on track, kept our vendors on top of it. Our day went off without a hitch - or if there was a hitch I didnt know about it !! Couldn't have been happier with our choice

d source of positivity when things get crazy. She also filled in last minute as our florist and did a RIDICULOUSLY beautiful job. She’s truly great at what she does. If we had to do it all over again, we’d go with Mixed Company every single time.

luding stationery and florals, and she delivered! Above all else, she is just a wonderful person to work with and exudes infectious joy in everything she does. Definitely recommend!

come alive and event dreams come true!

ked it out of the park. I wish I could shout my recommendation from the rooftops -- she deserves it!

florals of our dreams!! Her enthusiasm and personality bring so much to the table and it makes you so excited to be working with her. She flawlessly executed every particular detail we put our blood, sweat, and tears into over the year and a half leading up to our wedding. We cannot thank her enough for the most beautiful and perfect night (and day) of our lives!! If anything went wrong we never knew about it. I SO hope that we get to work together in the future! I would 100% recommend Mixed Company to anyone. Do it, now! You won't regret it!
