Precious Moments Events

dding that felt timeless, elegant, and personal. The florals were absolutely stunning and tied the entire day together perfectly. On the wedding day, everything ran smoothly and effortlessly—we were able to relax and truly enjoy every moment knowing we were in the best hands. Michelle is organized, creative, and genuinely cares about her couples.

he time to understand our style, vision, and priorities, then transformed them into a wedding that felt uniquely us. The florals were lush, romantic, and perfectly placed throughout the venue. Everything flowed beautifully from ceremony to reception. Her guidance, creativity, and professionalism made us feel confident every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

every single step of the way. They truly handled everything—vendor coordination, timelines, design details, and all the little things we didn’t even know to think about. Their professionalism, calm demeanor, and genuine care made the entire process stress-free and actually enjoyable. Michelle has an incredible eye for detail, while Nelson made sure everything ran seamlessly behind the scenes. We felt completely supported, heard, and valued throughout the entire journey. Our wedding day was flawless, emotional, and beyond anything we imagined. We could not have done this without them and will forever be grateful for their dedication and passion.

and Maria and her husband even stayed late to make sure we got pictures with the arch before she tore it down — and even fluffed the train of be dress for me, while giving us photo ideas. I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out, Michelle really made my ceremony beyond perfect.

nd I our signature drinks after the ceremony. We had to go to our rain plan for the reception and Michelle’s team handled the transition flawlessly.

in, helping with planning details, and making sure everything was on track for a smooth and stress-free day. Any time I had questions or concerns, she was right there with answers and solutions. On the day of the wedding, Maria took the lead as the main coordinator, and she was absolutely amazing. For the few things that didn’t go exactly as planned, she was quick to jump in and handle everything seamlessly. Her calm presence and attention to detail helped make the day feel effortless. The entire team made sure we had the wedding of our dreams, and we truly couldn’t have asked for better support. I can’t recommend them enough!

ything went smoothly and according to plan—and she was always just a quick text away if we needed anything. She took all the stress off our shoulders and somehow made the entire planning process feel effortless (which honestly felt like magic). Michelle completely understood my vision and brought it to life in the most beautiful way—everything turned out even better than I imagined. Her creativity, patience, and calm, reassuring energy made all the difference. We were able to actually enjoy our wedding day without worrying about a thing, and that is such a gift. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond, Michelle is the one. Her pricing was also very reasonable, which was helpful considering how crazy wedding costs have gotten. We’re so grateful she was part of this special chapter in our lives! Venue: Powel Crosley Estate in Sarasota, FL

erything was taken care of and did develop an amazing Plan B that we thankfully did not have to utilize. She and her husband kept the party going by sweeping water off our dance floor after 20 minutes of rain we had. I cannot be more thankful for Michelle’s guidance throughout the planning process. She goes above and beyond even as a day-of-coordinator!

had such an amazing wedding planned, thanks to Michelle’s help and guidance, but the weather made us truly nervous that our wedding would not happen as planned. Michelle worked so hard to make sure that we would still have the wedding of our dreams. Even with some vendors backing out at the last minute, Michelle did everything that she could to ensure all of our wishes still came true on our special day! Not only was she an integral part of the day, but she worked with us for over a year to plan and design our perfect wedding. During the week of with the threat of the hurricane, Michelle really helped us to remain calm, taking on much of the burden in figuring out how we could still make our wedding possible, which we greatly appreciated. Michelle and her team were absolutely fabulous and our wedding day would not have been the same without their help!

e had everything sorted! She honestly made our whole wedding weekend everything we wanted and more. From helping find suppliers to being there on the day, Michelle made the whole experience so enjoyable. All the stress of planning a wedding was taken away and we were able to enjoy the whole process. On the day it was amazing to see our whole vision come to life and we can not thank Michelle enough!

g several months ago and decided to hire her for month of planning because I was getting overwhelmed. To say she helped out would be an understatement. She got me organized and handled all the little things I didn't even know I needed to do. She was in constant communication with me and even kept on top of me to get things done I needed to do on my own. The day of, I don't know if I could have pulled it off without her. She helped get everything set up, kept me calm, handled all my vendors, and managed my bridal party (who are like herding cats). My make up artist was over an hour late and Michelle kept me calm and worked really hard to reconstruct as mush of the time line as we could. I would recommend her to ANYONE getting married. Michelle and Precious Moments was worth every penny! Definitely a smart investment for anyone getting married!

ok off so much stress and helped me find vendors that were trusted and within our budget! The best was the day of having the precious moment events team there so I could focus on enjoying my wedding and not have to worry about details. Also the florals were absolutely stunning!

cause my Dads wedding was incredible and I saw Michelle and her team in action first hand since I was a bridesmaid in his wedding. For my wedding Michelle made sure I was on track. She was readily available for all questions. She seriously helped me too with my anxiety by reassuring me she was there to help. She had so many tools available too which actually helped me stay more organized too. I really appreciate this incredible team. It was worth every penny. These are people that love what they do and it shows! Thank you so much again!

nsion. The vendors we choose came highly recommended from her and made our wedding day truly magical. Michelle is very detailed oriented and anytime I had concerns she was able to quickly resolve it. On our wedding day Michelle and her team were right by our side throughout the night and made sure we ate and had a drink in our hands. Many of our guests came to us at the end of the night to let us know how lovely and fun the wedding was. I highly recommend Precious Moment Events if you are looking for a wedding planner.

my own was going to be a challenge. My wedding venue, Mote required at minimum a day of coordinator. After speaking on the phone with Michelle at the beginning of last year asking her about the different options she provides, I knew that she was the planner for us. Being from Chicago, I love that Michelle shares the same philosophy with me of wanting to get ahead of things and get things planned and done as soon as possible. Within, 2 months of hiring Michelle we had all of our big vendors booked. Not only that but she knew I wanted a nautical themed wedding and took my vision and elevated it to a level that neither my husband or I could have imagined. Also, her husband Nelson was amazing and willing to do whatever was needed to make sure my brother who is physically disabled was able to participate in our beach ceremony wedding. She helped us work within our budget and recommended the best vendors we could have asked for. Michelle always made me feel at ease and heard with what we were looking for on our special day. I feel like after this I did not only get a phenomenal wedding planner who I would recommend to any and everyone, but a friend in the process. When it came to talking about flowers, I knew I wanted tropical as we had a beach wedding and Michelle communicated to Eva exactly what I wanted, but little did I know that I was going to be speechless when I saw the beauty Eva created for me with my cascading bouquet, not to mention the amazing arrangements she did for the chuppah. Eva did such an amazing job with the florals, I decided to preserve them in resin to have a constant reminder of the amazing work both of these ladies did to make our wedding as amazing and unforgettable as it was. While I could keep writing on and on about how easy and amazing it was working with Michelle, I will end with this.....don't think about it, just do it. You will definitely not regret for one moment choosing Michelle and Precious Moments. It will be the second best decision you make, outside of saying yes to your forever person.

remely helpful and calmed me down when needed during stressful moments. Highly recommend!

g engaged, I connected with a few different planners and Michelle was the standout – by far. We fell in love with her energy, sincerity, timeliness, organization, and so much more. We shared our vision and she immediately understood what we were looking for – and helped us achieve our dream wedding. Michelle quickly became our voice of reason / someone to lean on while planning – and she was always a phone call, text, meeting, or email away. That said, from start to finish, our wedding day WAS the best day of our lives and BEYOND perfect in every single way. The attention to detail and thoughtfulness did not go unnoticed. Recently on a phone call with my new mother-in-law, she mentioned how special it was that Michelle gathered our parents for our wedding exit so that they had the best view of us leaving to start our new life together. We still have family and friends talking about it weeks later.. I can wholeheartedly say that none of it would have been possible without Michelle and the Precious Moments team – and we truly cannot thank them enough for creating the best experience we could have ever imagined. Cannot recommend them enough to anyone and everyone!

shoulders and let us enjoy the day. From helping with vendors to creating the timeline for the day, they were five steps ahead of us. They were accomodating to our requests, but also proposed new ideas we never thought of. Our advice to any couple getting married - use Precious Moments Events!! There are such high expectations that a wedding day must be memorable and flawless, they will help you achieve just this. You will be forever grateful for them, just like we are. We cannot recommend them enough.

the Tampa area (currently in Atlanta) so I planned everything from afar. From our first initial phone conversation, where she helped recommend several vendors even before I had booked her, all the way to my wedding day, where even day of we had a mishap with the venue and chair situation, Michelle was professional, always cool, calm and collected, and a huge problem solver. I highly recommend working with Michelle, even though she was a busy bee for several weddings at a time, she never made me feel like just another number or just another bride. Book Precious Moments Events before they're all booked up!!

we had absolutely everything we needed. This was a destination wedding for us, and without Michelle’s expertise and knowledge of our venue(powel crosley estate) we could not have had the experience that we did. If you are looking for someone that will make your dream day come true, look no further. Thank you again Michelle, a day we will never forget. Ushan & Amy Rankothgedera

ook phone calls whenever we needed to talk and answered all our random texts. Towards the end of the planning, we had a hiccup in losing out on a DJ. Michelle came to the rescue. We had a new DJ booked in a matter of 24 hours. On wedding day, Michelle and Colleen were fairy godmothers making sure we were following schedule, set up was just as envisioned, guiding guests, and getting behind the scenes pictures and videos. They made our most special day go just as we dreamed. We highly recommend Precious Moments Events to cater to your wedding planning needs.

edding day making sure everything was perfect and taken care of.

afar. Michelle was always easy to get a hold of when I had questions and provided guidance whenever I needed help. If you’re looking for a wedding planner with experience, Michelle is amazing!

ing and leads with a gentle touch. She completely brought our vision to life and introduced us to key vendors. The day was perfectly seamless and there is not a thing we would change. I would recommend Michelle to anyone planning their wedding in the area.

. Her and her husband were incredible the day of our wedding. She was on top of making sure my husband and I were happy the day of the wedding. We had codewords so she knew if I needed rescuing or help throughout the day of our wedding. They helped us pack up all our stuff and were nothing short of amazing! She also was so helpful in making sure I didn’t totally blow my budget! Loved them!

son for allowing my dream to come true. My husband and I traveled to Siesta Key to view venues, and once we fell in love with one, we did not even know where to start. After viewing our dream venue, we went to breakfast and started searching for planners. Within minutes of sending Michelle an inquiry, she called and offered to meet us right then for breakfast. Instantly she showed how committed and passionate she is about her role as a planner. It can be very overwhelming being so far away, but Michelle reassured us she could and would handle everything. Michelle was responsive and supportive with every step of the way. She took the time to get to know us, which allowed her to customize every vendor around us. After a year of many calls, lots of planning, and a few short visits, we truly consider Michelle and Nelson now family. We love you guys and cannot thank you enough for everything. -Cristina & Nick

onal moments no one ever teaches you about. It was helpful to have someone with experience to guide you along the way knowing they meant well. Michelle listened to all of my requests and made them come alive. The main reason I wanted a day of coordinator was to unpack and pack all of my decorations since I was doing a destination wedding. She most definitely delivered above and beyond in that department. We are so grateful for her. She also helped us in connecting with a wood florist (Shy Chic Boutique) who made our wedding so special. We were able to save so much money by not getting real flowers.

on the details of the aesthetics and Michelle and her team delivered my vision. She was professional, responsive and solutions driven through the entire planning process and provided tons of feedback based on her experience in hosting beach weddings. They were super attentive to my guests and were super hands on with everything the day of. My guest felt taken care of and I was relieved to know we were all in good hands. Forever grateful for connecting with Michelle and her team. My wedding ceremony 6/18 on Coquina Beach was a complete success! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

like it wasn't a destination at all. Michelle from start to finish was absolutely phenomenal and helped us every step of the way. Wedding Day was what really impressed us. We of course had no idea what to expect or what we were doing at all. She kept everyone calm (especially me), had everything set up just the way we wanted it, was incredibly organized and kept was ON POINT with our tight schedule! I was a little concerned about my daughter walking down the aisle as a flower girl (typical independent and sassy 2 year old who is very clingy to me)- Nelson was SO AMAZING with her and helped teach her how to throw her flowers down the aisle and she didn't look back at me once! I can't be more thankful for that alone! We had the absolute best experience and so much of that was because of Michelle and Nelson. If you're looking for a planner that can do it all- look no further! They're amazing! Thank y'all so much!

worked with in the past that she can recommend based on your need. I personally appreciated her recommendation for a caterer which was Blue Water Catering. She also worked closely with Celebrations24 (another great vendor for wedding entertainment needs). They were all able to accommodate my needs for sure. It helps a lot that she knows the vendors she’s working with, that way, things will flow smoothly for everyone. I wish I met her sooner, so she could have guided me about the photographer or recommended me one (Hired a photographer too early who turned out to be very unprofessional and it was the worst decision I made up to date)! We also had a very unusual situation where we couldn’t lock down our wedding date early on. And Michelle has been very accommodating about that. She assured us that it was okay to reschedule given our situation and that was very comforting for me and my then fiancé. On the day of my wedding, she assigned Maria to us as she has another wedding booked before I was able to finalize my date. Had a bit of an issue with direction in the beginning of the setup in the venue, but Maria has been very approachable and nice during the event. She did a good job making sure the event still went according to timeline even though the event got pushed a couple of hours behind (our fault!). Also, big thank you to her because I left my veil at the dressing area and she had to drive 15mins to the church to give it to me. She saved the day for sure! Michelle and I are still in contact to this day, because she doesn’t abandon her brides until we get everything we need from all vendors we dealt with. Thank you Michelle and Maria for helping us with our wedding!

stress-free throughout the whole wedding planning process. She is so personable and made sure everything was to my liking. Best ever!!

the week of. We had problems Opulent lighting and Michelle took care of everything the day of and made sure everything was beautiful. When we had to make the rain call I remember Michelle reassuring me she would make sure I had a beautiful wedding on Sanibel and I was so so happy with how everything turned out! Thank you Michelle and Nelson for helping make our day run so smoothly! Michelle helped everyone stay on schedule throughout the day and I can’t even imagine not having them there to help coordinate! :) Highly recommend Precious Moments and would absolutely use them again!

any help or guidance. I thought I had it all planned out until I ran into multiple issues with the venue I chose, multiple issues with the ceremony company I had booked. Things just kept falling apart I became overwhelmed. I was trying to plan a destination wedding with a unresponsive resort team all while being a new mom. I was on the urge with giving up after having to reschedule my wedding so many times due to the pandemic. I stumbled across Michelle on a Florida Facebook group where I reached out asking for wedding planning services. We introduced ourselves and from their I knew right away I could trust her. We chatted and I of course signed the contract bc I knew I needed her. A few weeks later I made a trip to FL and Michelle made sure to be there at my cake tasting to meet me etc. after meeting her in person I also then knew I made a good choice hiring her to fix the mess I had from the poor service from my resort. Although I did warn her of everything I had been through she agreed I deserved better and constantly reminded me she wouldn’t let me down. 5 months before my scheduled wedding my ceremony fell through completely. The company bailed-long story. Michelle from there took everything into her own hands and within 48 hours reached out to her close venders and she was able to put together a full ceremony. I eventually asked her to just do whatever she thinks will work and “surprise me”. Lol which I’m glad bc it took stress off of me and I was very impressed with every detail she put together . I got married on 10/16/2021 and everything went absolutely perfect. Michelle and her husband and her employee were on top of things. Constantly working but also helped me with my one year old so I could enjoy myself. Michelle also surprised me and my husband with a wonderful wall lighting that labeled mine and my husbands name with our date during our reception on the outside wall. Coolest thing I ever seen. I truly appreciate Michelle and as much as I’m glad the wedding part is over it also makes me sad I don’t have to plan with Michelle anymore. At first she was just a wedding planner who gave me a contract but in the end I gained a friend. Even though I’m hundreds of miles away I will support Michelle and her wedding planning services because she deserves it.

edding was held on June 20, 2021. I found Michelle from a New York Times article. No small task planning a wedding for a former NJ Special Event Exec, but Michelle exceeded my expectations. Everything I Wanted, even the smallest detail, all of the elements came together as planed and professionally executed. I was living in TN planning a FL wedding. We were in consistent contact through multiple emails, texts, and phone calls. Michelle organized all vendors, including lighting, décor, rentals (linens, chairs, tables, place settings) florist (amazing florist) photographers, waitstaff, bartenders, photo booth, and finally, a 3' Heart, that was shaped with candles on the beach! With her help, we took a beach front cement block building and transformed it into a Gorgeous, Elegant Beach Themed Wedding. For your Beautiful once-in-a Lifetime wedding hire Michelle.

ams were going to come true. I wasn't the traditional bride that gives themselves a year or two to plan I literally decided on a date that was only 6 months away and Michelle said it would be no problem and she could do "everything" and stick to the strict timeline. She put together so many options and worked within our budget and I never felt any pressure or stress. She honestly helped me with every little detail. She has so many relationships with so many different vendors I never had to search for anyone! She took care of florist, cake tasking, catering tasting, photographer, hair, makeup, hotel accomodations, bridal shop (where I found my perfect gown), DJ, Photo Booth, Bartender, Antique Car Rental, Centerpieces, Sunset Cruise...absolutely everything!!! Aside from her excellent organizational skills and attention to detail she genuinely cared and wanted to make sure I could truly have my "Fairy Tale" Wedding! I have to thank her and her Team for all they did for my husband and I. They treated us so special and made sure we were taking care of during the entire celebration! If you are looking for someone to handle the most important day of your life I highly recommend Michelle and the Precious moments team! With Gratitude, Mr. and Mrs. Angello

e way to keep me sane. She assisted in re-contracting all our vendors, and even with finding a new venue with only 3 months til the wedding. Michelle kept it real during the entire process and kindly let me know when things were or were not going to happen so there were no surprises. She also anticipated our needs without me even having to say it. During one of our planning meetings just 3 months before the wedding she recognized I was unhappy with our current venue and jumped in to help us secure our top choice venue. (It was not available for our first date, but when we had to postpone due to covid, she found out their availability and helped us move our contract!) She has great connections & relationships with vendors around Sarasota and was amazing to work with. At the rehearsal the night before the wedding my father suggested he walk me down the aisle from a different entry than they typically do at this venue and Michelle and her husband swooped in to make it happen! I am thankful to have found Michelle and you will be too!

ething small, intimate and familiar and Michelle made sure that she got the wedding of her dreams. 

From the moment we first spoke on the phone, I knew she was the right person. Michelle was very accommodating to our budget, her husband (who speaks Spanish) was able to communicate with my mother and the rest of my Spanish-speaking family.

 Even for very last minute details, Michelle was able to accommodate us. 

 Michelle organized an officiant in Spanish and this was the highlight of the wedding. The officiant had the most beautiful energy and surrounded the space with her grace and love. My parent’s wedding is, by far, the most special wedding I have attended. 

 We will forever be grateful to Precious Moments for their love. The day of the wedding, my aunt needed assistance to walk on the beach, Michelle and her husband quite literally carried her and showed her kindness and respect. 

 Michelle does this out of passion and it really shows. When they are around, it feels like it is another family member. 

If you are looking for someone to support you in your wedding planning, you have found the right person.

Thank you. It look beautiful.

y planned to be the ‘point person’ for my own wedding! So glad we had them there to coordinate everything. Our wedding day was smooth and flawless in my eyes. We actually even received a lot of compliments from our friends and family who thought Michelle & Nelson were fun and friendly. One person even told me that coordinators are usually snappy and stressed and pointed out that Michelle & Nelson were level-headed, nice, and had everything under control!

was able to help me with everything from flowers, music, beach permit and all of the other things needed for a beach wedding that I would not have thought of. Her and her husband did an amazing job picking the perfect location on Sand Key Beach and setting up in the heat! The entire experience was so helpful and my now husband and I could not have had the most perfect day ever without their amazing help!!! #grahamputaringonit #loveisnotcancelled #covidbrideandgroom #covidhusbandandwife

ed it would be. She was very easy to communicate with and more than willing to meet up or chat on the phone with any questions or ideas I had. Overall I would absolutely hire her again for the amazing work she did for us on our wedding day. I would recommend her services to anyone in a heartbeat!!!

ould imagine. If your looking for a team and someone who will go above and beyond hire them.

knowledgeable and has many connections in town to help facilitate the creation of your dream wedding. Thanks Michelle and Precious Moment Events!
