Rachel Behar Events

I don't even know where to start - but what I'll say is that our dream wedding would not have been possible without the RBE team. I'm a pretty type A person, and initially doubted whether I even needed a planner. But looking back on everything that went into planning my wedding, I know I could not have done it without Lizzie and Rachel. Lizzie was by our side since the beginning, helping me (not a creative person) bring my creative vision to life, and taking all the work - that really started to pile up at the end - off my plate. Wedding planning is an incredibly stressful process, but the organization, industry knowledge, and most of all, calm/friendly/positive demeanor that Lizzie always had allowed me to push past the stress and enjoy the time for what it was. She was always accessible when we had questions and gave us the honest advice we often needed. I always felt like her priority was making our wedding as amazing as possible. Meanwhile, Rachel supported us on our actual wedding day, and I can't express how helpful and calming her presence was. My only regret is not having her there at my rehearsal dinner! I was able to fully focus on being present for my special day because I was confident I could trust her to get everything done on time and extremely well, and she delivered! My friends were truly astounded at how smoothly and timely the whole day went. Rach, you made sure everything went off without a hitch, with a positive attitude the entire time. Simply put, the RBE team are kind, supportive, organized, understanding, talented, and really, truly there for you. They feel more like friends than vendors, but manage to balance that with hard work that you can see the results of. You can trust that they will do everything in their power to make your day perfect. I couldn't recommend them enough!!

Lizzie jumped in as our wedding planner midway through the planning process and didn’t miss a beat! She made every part of the process so seamless. She really took the time to get to know us and our style/preferences and recommended vendors that fit our needs perfectly. Every request was met with a positive attitude and a willingness to make anything work. It was so nice to have a roadmap and to be able to focus on the big picture, knowing that all of the little details were being taken care of. The day of our wedding was totally stress-free and executed perfectly so that we were able to enjoy our time with loved ones. We didn’t even find out until after the event that our pizza order for the after-party had been cancelled! Lizzie somehow made sure it still showed up as expected. We can’t recommend RBE’s team enough to anyone planning a wedding in NYC or beyond. The level of care and thoughtfulness truly exceeded expectations and didn’t go unnoticed by our guests. Thank you, RBE, for bringing our vision to life!

We cannot express enough how grateful we are for Lizzie and Rachel for making our destination wedding in Mykonos the most magical experience of our lives. From the moment we started planning from NYC, Lizzie was incredibly thoughtful, organized, and responsive, ensuring every detail was perfectly executed. Lizzie’s energy and enthusiasm were infectious, and she made every aspect of the three-day event feel seamless, even when we encountered a few surprises along the way. Her attention to detail and ability to handle everything with such grace and positivity amazed not only us but also our guests, who continuously complimented how perfectly organized and timed everything was. Lizzie’s thoughtfulness extended beyond the event itself. Returning to our room after our wedding night to find our wedding stuff so perfectly organized was the warmest touch. She truly made us feel taken care of from start to finish. If you’re looking for wedding planners who are professional, personable, and go above and beyond, Lizzie and Rachel are the only right choice. We are beyond grateful for their help and wouldn’t have made it without them!

Working with Lizzie at RBE was the best decision we made when planning our daughter’s wedding. She brought a level of expertise to the process which was more than we ever expected. She used a worksheet which was a part of an extremely well organized and streamlined RBE tracking system for everything from vendors, budgeting and payments, guests, timeline, photos, seating, stationery and more! The quality of the vendors they work with is beyond par and she was able to match us with vendors that suited our vision for the wedding. They have established great relationships with vendors and are able to handle any challenges that arise. On wedding day Lizzie and her team worked their magic, calmly getting everything done behind the scenes and with a polished presence throughout the event. Her previous experience at our venue and her expertise contributed to everything being perfect. The compliments we have received are amazing. People noticed every lovely detail, including how perfectly everything went. We’re very happy to have chosen Rachel Behar Events to guide us through the process. We couldn’t have asked for anything better.

It's hard to put into words is how absolutely wonderful my daughter's entire wedding weekend was and how much I appreciate everything Rachel did to make it exactly what both my daughter and her fiance and my husband and I wanted. She even made sure the weather cooperated. :)! There was not one detail that was overlooked. Rachel worked seamlessly running interference between all of us and somehow made it look easy. Every vendor she recommended and the kids chose turned out to be great. The number of complementary emails, texts and phone calls that I received saying how beautiful and warm and fun the weekend was is overwhelming and almost everyone I’ve spoken to mentioned how great they thought Rachel was too. I could go on and on, but suffice it to say Rachel did an amazing job and we so appreciate her and Lizzie and the entire RBE team!!

We are still in awe of the magical experience Rachel created for us! From the moment we started working with her, we knew we were in the hands of an absolute genius. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care transformed our entire wedding journey into a joyous adventure we'll cherish forever. Rachel didn't just understand our vision - she elevated it beyond our wildest dreams! Her attention to detail was simply mind-blowing, and the way she anticipated our every need made us feel like royalty. The personal touches she added throughout the process left us speechless - it was clear that she poured her heart and soul into making our day perfect. We were blown away by the incredible vendors Rachel introduced us to. Each one was an absolute star, perfectly aligned with our style and wishes. It's obvious that Rachel has cultivated relationships with the best of the wedding industry, and we felt so lucky to benefit from her amazing network. Thanks to Rachel's superhuman organizational skills, we were able to relax and soak in every moment of our special day. She handled every single detail with such grace and professionalism that we didn't have a care in the world except enjoying our time with each other and our loved ones. Words can't express how grateful we are to have had Rachel as our wedding planner. She didn't just make our day unforgettable - she filled the entire experience with so much love, care, and joy that we're still floating on cloud nine. Rachel is more than a wedding planner; she's a miracle worker, a mind reader, and now, a dear friend.

From the very beginning, Rachel was an absolute gem in making our wedding dreams come true. My husband and I had a vision for our special day, but Rachel took that vision and transformed it into a breathtaking reality that exceeded all of our expectations. Rachel’s impeccable organization, eye for detail, and genuine passion for what she does were evident in every aspect of the planning process. She listened intently to our ideas, offered thoughtful suggestions, and managed every detail with such grace and efficiency that we felt completely at ease throughout the entire journey. Her calm demeanor and problem-solving skills were invaluable, especially when unexpected challenges arose, but Rachel handled them with such poise that it was as if nothing ever went awry. Our wedding was a seamless blend of elegance and personal touches, all thanks to Rachel’s dedication and creativity. From the stunning decor to the perfectly timed events, every element was beautifully orchestrated. Our guests are still raving about the day, and we owe so much of that joy to Rachel’s hard work and expertise. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who is not only professional but also incredibly kind and intuitive, look no further than Rachel. She is truly a master of her craft and made our wedding day an unforgettable celebration of love and happiness. Thank you, Rachel, for everything – you helped us create memories we will cherish forever!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Lizzie & Rachel Behar Events to plan our wedding. From the very beginning, Lizzie helped us navigate the planning process with professional precision, while also maintaining a commitment to our vision for the wedding weekend. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Lizzie went above and beyond to make sure we were on task & ahead of schedule on every detail, with as few logistical obstacles as possible. She made herself available to us as often as we needed, and even generously offered to pick up our day-of items the week before the wedding to ensure our check-in process would be smooth and easy. On our wedding day, we had total confidence in Lizzie and the RBE team to handle all the logistics and coordination, allowing us to be completely in the moment with each other and all of our loved ones. The team was organized, detail-oriented and attentive, and executed a flawless day-of timeline. Every detail was exactly as we imagined and if there were any hiccups at all, we weren't made aware of them - truly the best gift we could ask for!

Rachel and her team went above and beyond to make sure there were no surprises, hiccups, or errors on our wedding day! Rachel is very organized (lots of spreadsheets and checklists!) which allowed for a stress free planning experience. Rachel made a day of timeline, down to five minute intervals, and she made sure we followed it perfectly. She is creative, an amazing listener, and has such a calming presence. She handles everything with a smile and doesn’t sweat the small stuff. Not only did she make sure everything was perfect leading up to and on the the big day, she made sure all of our special items (from ceremony, sleeves from dress, change of shoes, etc.) were organized and we got everything back! Lizzie was a huge help with organizing the room blocks. Rachel and her team genuinely cared about us and our families. She made sure there was reserved seating in the first few rows for our loved ones to have a close up view of our ceremony. Rachel and her team allowed myself, my husband, and our families to genuinely enjoy our wedding day and not have to worry about anything!

We had the pleasure of working with Rachel Behar as our wedding planner, and we could not be more thrilled with the experience she provided. From the onset, Rachel demonstrated exceptional organization and communication skills. She is a spreadsheet queen, which helped us stay organized and keep track of everything from guest lists, to the day of timeline, and our budget. She was not only attentive to our needs but showed incredible thoughtfulness towards our loved ones. For example, she made sure my grandmother's wheelchair was positioned perfectly so she could fully enjoy and participate in my father's speech and then made sure to pack her a goodie bag of desserts when she needed to retire early in the night. Rachel's dedication truly shone; she took all the potential stress upon herself, ensuring that we could focus on enjoying our special day. She made sure that every detail of the wedding was gorgeous and exactly what we envisioned. Her commitment didn't stop with the wedding day; she went above and beyond by offering fantastic recommendations for our Friday rehearsal dinner and Sunday brunch, making the entire weekend seamless and memorable. Thanks to Rachel Behar Events, we had the wedding weekend of our dreams. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will support you, manage every detail with grace, and make your wedding experience as joyful and stress-free as possible, Rachel is, without a doubt, the perfect choice.

Rachel and her associates took the stress out of wedding planning and helped make our special day exactly what we were hoping for. From the start, Rachel understood our vision for the day and was cognizant that we were on a budget. We were going for something fun, colorful and funky. We knew the venue we wanted and Rachel was there to ask the right questions and to make sure it was the perfect spot for us. She quickly found outstanding DJs and photographers to choose from. In a matter of just a few weeks we had all the major vendors secured (venue, flowers, DJ, photographer). Not to mention, Rachel is based in NYC but was able to source all of our Michigan vendors with her research and ability to connect with EVERYONE. While all the big items were outstanding, where Rachel really shined was on the details. Rachel kept us organized and timely in all aspects of planning utilizing a variety of tools including an amazing spread sheet. Putting together guest lists, sending invitations, finalizing seating charts, etc. She also thought of so many little touches to make the wedding special like having the perfect escort cards, place cards, ideas for the guest book menus, etc. So many people in our lives warned us that on the day of your wedding some things will go wrong and that the wedding is for the guests to have fun rather than yourself. We can honestly say that wasn’t our experience at all. When things came up like a likelihood of rain for a partially outdoor wedding, we never felt stressed knowing we were in Rachel’s hands. We can’t think of a single thing that went wrong on the day of the wedding and we had a complete blast. The day of support from RBE associates was outstanding. We didn’t assume the wedding would be one of the best days of our lives, but that ended up being the case in large part due to Rachel’s vision, talent, work ethic and support. WE LOVE RBE!!!! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!! Z+D

We can’t recommend Rachel and her team enough!!! We worked with RBE for about a year to plan our wedding and from start to finish, they were a dream to work with. When our friends and family asked us why we weren’t stressed at ANY phase of the process, we pointed to Rachel (and her spreadsheets/checklists :)). This was true for big details - when our after party venue closed down just a couple of weeks before our wedding date, within a day Rachel had sent us multiple amazing options. Or for small details - on the wedding day I thought we had misplaced my mom’s comfy shoes but Rachel’s team had already put them under her chair. This captures what working with Rachel is like - she has solved the problem before you even realize there was one. Her relationships and communication with vendors was also integral to putting together a team that we were so excited to work with and seemed equally excited to work with us, in no small part due to their existing relationship with Rachel. She also quickly created relationships with new vendors that we introduced into the planning process. It is clear that whoever she engages with, she is professional, respectful, and a joy to work with. Most of all, we felt listened to and that Rachel was advocating for what we really wanted every step of the way, from initial planning through every moment of the wedding weekend - and this was true for every single member of the RBE team we worked with. We weren’t a couple that came in with very distinct ideas about what we wanted our wedding to look like. Rachel took our vague ideas and incorporated them into an overall cohesive design and plan for the weekend that was SO us, integrating our cultures and personalities into every detail. She was available, super responsive, and flexible. Overall, the RBE team are a dream to work with and because of them, our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined!!

Rachel, Lizzie and the team are rockstars and were truly a joy to work with. We didn’t know what to expect going into the wedding planning experience since we’d never planned a wedding or seen the party format/experience we hoped for, but were at ease with and impressed by RBE’s guidance. From our first conversation RBE were open to our ideas, reassuring, unflappable, yes people, and didn’t try to box us in. RBE delivered on their word, managed expectations/timelines/personalities, were detail oriented, brought our visions to life, exceeded expectations and became friends in the process. Additionally, they helped curate the vendors we worked with, and surrounded us with a team that was similarly enjoyable, detail-oriented, and got things done. We couldn’t have left working together with a more positive experience or sing their praises enough. They’re the best.

Where do I begin with Rachel and her team? We hired Rachel after meeting with 6-7 other event planners, and knew immediately she was for us because of her "yes" attitude. The wedding planning process is daunting - she was truly our compass, and never made us feel anything was out of reach (even though we had a budget and short engagement of 6 months). Working with Rachel is like working with the world's best project manager with incredible connections and relationships and great taste. She managed timelines, budgets, expectations, and familial dynamics with such professionalism and tact. We LOVED working with her, and could not recommend her and her team more highly.

Rachel is a superstar! I cannot recommend Rachel and her team more highly. Throughout the planning process, Rachel was professional, inventive, and efficient. She kept everything perfectly on track while somehow keeping me calm, stress-free, and assured that nothing would slip through the cracks. On the wedding day, there was a moment when I was surrounded by Rachel and her team, plus my wonderful makeup artist, florist, and photographer, and I was overwhelmed with joy and gratitude for this absolute dream team of women bringing my dreams to life. Rachel is truly capable of making magic happen. 

There are no words to describe how truly unreal Rachel and Lizzie are as a planning team. From day one, I felt completely supported and as if I was the only bride/wedding that they were handling (even though I knew there were a lot!) From suggesting vendors, to project managing, to giving advice on decor, and SO much more, I couldn't recommend a better team. Not to mention, they are incredibly calm and really help to make you feel like they have everything under control, which they 100% do! I really cant thank you two enough for making my day literally perfect. There was not ONE hiccup that I had to deal with and you both truly allowed me to just enjoy my day and focus on my family and friends. BEST TEAM EVER!!!!!

Working with Rachel Behar Events was, without a doubt, the best decision we made when it came to wedding planning. In terms of the actual planning and logistics of the big day, I LOVED how she organized and tracked all of the details, from the budget, to guest list, to vendors, to schedules, etc. Her system made everything clear and manageable for us. As one might imagine, there are an insurmountable number of tasks and decisions that need to be made for a wedding but her organizational system and timetables kept everything approachable and even fun. She is also incredibly quick to respond to emails/texts - no matter how small the question. On top of that, she has excellent relationships with the best vendors in the NYC-area and as such, we were able to have the most magical, unique and personalized wedding. That is a testament to how much she cares for each of her clients and how she goes above and beyond to ensure that the wedding is a true reflection of the couples’ wishes and personalities. Aside from her process, Rachel is truly one of the warmest, most patient and kindest people. She listens with openness and is an amazing problem-solver. I left all of our calls and meetings with her feeling calm and free of stress -- she has an unique ability to quell those anxious feelings. The larger RBE team is equally fantastic and attentive, and I was especially thankful of their positive energy and quick actions on the day of which minimized the chaos. My husband and I are so appreciative that we could enjoy our day with minimal stress, as the entire RBE team managed every single detail of the day, especially those unexpected moments. Truly, I cannot say enough good things about Rachel and her team. I already want to work with her again for our 10-year anniversary (joking, but only kind of).

I cannot begin to explain how wonderful Rachel Behar and her team are. I came to Rachel after my first planner ghosted me. I had my venue and caterer booked, both of which Rachel knew well, which was helpful. Rachel's network of quality vendors is impressive. My now husband and I got engaged six months before our wedding date, and at no point did I ever feel that I was settling with a vendor due to lack of options. In addition, she and her team took on a lot of communication with my vendors on my behalf, lightening my load of things I needed to figure out for our wedding. In addition to her amazing resources, Rachel and her team are extremely organized and provided a lot of structure (Google docs, 'one month to do's', etc) in the planning process. She and her team were also always available to answer any questions I had throughout the planning process, and were very helpful with their recommendations on items I needed to source for the wedding (via Etsy, Amazon, etc). There wasn't a question I had that Rachel didn't have an answer for. Sadly, I lost my father to cancer two months before my wedding. Rachel and her team were the first ones to send flowers with their condolences, and Rachel reached out saying she was there for anything I needed- a break from planning, a 'to do' list to work on to serve as a welcomed distraction, anything. Words cannot express how much my family and I appreciated her support during such a trying time. Lastly, Rachel and her team excel at taking on a challenge. In addition to our short timeline to plan, I wanted to have a Persian wedding- with it's own unique ceremony & traditions. Even though she had never planned a Persian wedding before, she and her team rose to the challenge, and she helped source wonderful vendors (even finding a Persian officiant all the was from Paris, France!) for our big day. I can wholeheartedly say that our wedding day was as wonderful as it was because of Rachel Behar Events <3

Rachel Behar Events was the BEST decision we could have ever made for our wedding, hands down. We sincerely could not have done any of it without Rachel and her team. She helped with every single decision, from big to small, during the process by clearly laying out various options based on our budget and interests. We fully trusted her expertise in vendors and planning our special day based on her expertise in the industry. She also was so responsive to every little question that we had and was always there to help whenever we needed. Rachel is the kindest. It truly was so enjoyable and easy to work with her, plus she’s unbelievably organized and will always keep you on track. Our wedding was beyond what we could’ve ever imagined, from the flow of the day to the smaller details like stationery, lighting, and timeline of the night, and that is all thanks to Rachel and her team!!

We can not recommend Rachel and her team enough! Our best decision was hiring Rachel to plan our wedding!! We worked with Rachel for about a year in planning our wedding, and not only did she make the planning process fun and easy, but from beginning to end, our wedding day was absolutely perfect! Everything came together flawlessly; our entire wedding day was so seamless! Upon walking into our venue, the vision we had worked on for a year had just come to life! With Rachel's guidance, she helped us pick all of our vendors, and they exceeded ALL our expectations! Rachel is SO sweet and was such a calm and steady presence throughout our wedding day! She makes the process of planning a wedding enjoyable and relaxed and has some of the fastest email response times! Rachel is always all ears when wanting or needing anything throughout the planning process! Her guidance and knowledge on every aspect of the day provided such relief when making any significant decisions. We went into our wedding day with low stress, knowing she would take care of everything! Every single thing on the night of our wedding was exemplary, thanks to the coordination, communication, planning, and knowledge from Rachel! We truly could not have done it without Rachel and her team - they are the best in the game!! I can not emphasize enough how grateful we are to Rachel for creating the most special day of our lives and something we will talk about for many years to come! We would do it all over again with RBE!!

Rachel and her team are a dream to work with. From sourcing the best vendors to making sure the day went seamlessly, we couldn't have asked for better partners on our big day. They stayed calm throughout the entire event and made sure we could stay present in celebration instead of having to deal with event logistics. If you're lucky enough to get Rachel and her team for your wedding, you will be in good hands!

We used the Rachel Behar Events team for our day-of-coordination services and are sooo thrilled we did!! From start to finish they were incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we understood each task that needed to be done as well as making sure each deadline was met. Lizzie and the team provided great guidance and suggestions, while simultaneously executing my vision. Most importantly, everything on the wedding day itself was executed perfectly and Lizzie and her team were a very calming presence. My husband and I felt so special, and simply couldn't have done it without Lizzie and the whole RBE team by our sides. We highly recommend and will be sure to use them for any future event planning needs!

Each and every moment of working with Rachel during our two year engagement was perfect. There was nothing about the planning process that was even remotely stressful and we are still amazed by Rachel's ability to tackle so many moving pieces with such calm and grace. It was incredibly relieving to feel like Rachel was always one step ahead of us, 100% reliable, and always responsive. She also helped us source the best of the best in the industry and we loved having a mostly Brooklyn based team of vendors - everyone was so easy to work with and made the day so special. Besides Rachel's calm disposition, kick ass organization, and unreal industry knowledge, what we appreciated the most was her advice giving/withholding. She completely let us do our thing unless we needed to be redirected and the moment we asked for advice she gave it firmly, which made us feel that much more confident in everything we were doing. Can't recommend Rachel and her team enough!

Rachel & her team truly are a dream team for anyone planning a big event. Our wedding weekend was everything we and our families wanted and more thanks to them. They make planning a wedding seem easy (my friends regularly asked me how I was so calm about wedding planning and my answer consistently was Rachel). From our first conversation, I knew Rachel understood us and what we wanted most out of our weekend. Her team was well organized, communicative, clear, detail-oriented, but most importantly cool, calm and collected under pressure. We will DEFINITELY be working with RBE in the future and will not stop singing their praises to anyone who asks about wedding planning. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for helping us bring to life the wedding of our dreams and making the entire process feel easy.

Rachel made our entire wedding experience unbelievably special, easy, stress free, and absolutely beautiful. There are not enough words to describe how fantastic Rachel, and the entire RBE team are to work with. From the first day we started working with RBE everything was well organized, and all communication was clear and well detailed. I will definitely be working with RBE in the future, and cannot stop singing the praises of Rachel and her team whenever someone asks if I was stressed planning the wedding. Thank you so much for an incredible weekend, and overall wedding planning experience!!

How can I begin to talk about how incredible Rachel is?? From the minute we hired RBE, my husband and I (and our families) felt like we were in the best hands. The vendors she connected us with were all fantastic, and she was on board to help us realize our big, bold, colorful vision. We never felt stressed or anxious about ANYTHING, and I was able to fully enjoy my wedding day (8/26/23). Also - Rachel did a great job of managing all the big personalities in my family, and we're already trying to think of what our next big event will be so we can hire her and her team again.

I literally don’t know how anyone gets married without Rachel!!! From the very start of our planning process, she made everything feel so natural, fun, and seamless. Rachel was always available to answer questions, provide an expert opinion when asked, and quell concerns, no matter how silly my questions felt sometimes! I trusted her implicitly from the beginning because of how honest, responsive, and genuine she always was. On our wedding day, Rachel and her team were unbelievable. They had the best energy that was both calm and fun - and they had TRULY any item you could ever ask for in a pinch (breath mint, scissors to cut a rogue string on a bridesmaids dress, etc). Everyone in our family and wedding party was beyond impressed and we had multiple comments about how amazing our planner was - Nick and I of course already knew how incredible Rachel was by then :) We absolutely LOVED working with Rachel and I am truly going to miss chatting with her all the time now that our wedding is over!! We could not recommend RBE more!

I can’t say enough good things about Rachel and her team - they made our dream wedding come to life and it was better than we could have even imagined!!! From the very beginning, Rachel asked all the right questions to get to know us and our style and she helped us pick vendors that fit exactly what we wanted. She was always so patient with us and never pressured us into making any decisions that we didn’t want, always reminding us that it was our wedding and we could pretty much do it however we wanted! I asked for her opinion many times along the way, for everything from style to logistics, and she always gave us honest answers to help us make the best decisions for our wedding. Rachel and her team really shined when it was finally time for our wedding weekend - all of our guests stayed on site for the weekend and Rachel and her team were there the whole time. When I say that everything went perfectly… WOW!! It was true magic. She made sure that we didn’t need to lift a finger or worry about anything so that we could enjoy every moment of it. It was the best weekend of our lives and if I did it all over, I would 100000% work with Rachel again.

My husband and I couldn't recommend Rachel and her team more!! Not only is Rachel an absolute expert in wedding planning, she is also kind, warm, and a delight to work with. A true "calm in the chaos" energy. Rachel takes all the stress and guess work out of planning your wedding (my favorite part was the monthly to-do lists!) and you can feel confident that you're in the best hands right through the day of your wedding. Rachel's teammate Lizzie was our day-of coordinator and she was on top of things from the moment we got to the hotel the afternoon before our wedding. We were able to sit back and enjoy the festivities all weekend without a second thought. A MASSIVE thank you to Rachel, Lizzie, and the rest of the RBE team for making sure our wedding day was an absolute dream!

Run do not walk to hire Rachel and her team to plan your wedding. They are the sought after planning team and we know why. Professional, courteous, very responsive and lovely. It was a pleasure doing business with her. When we have the opportunity we will definitely work with them again!

We started working with Rachel and her team just over a year before our wedding and it was the best decisions we made. Not only did she help us pick incredible vendors, but her organization, communication and planning leading up the big day helped relieve SO much of the wedding planning stress. Her "to-do" lists were clear and organized and Rachel was super responsive and thorough with ALL of our questions. And that was just leading up to the wedding. The wedding itself ran as smoothly as we could have imagined and we attribute that to our amazing wedding planner. On the day of, Rachel was there to make sure everything was perfect and fully had the whole day under control. We were able to enjoy, dance and just have fun on the most perfect day of our lives. Working with Rachel and her team is an absolute no brainer and we couldn't recommend her enough!

My wife and I are beyond happy we worked with Rachel & her team on our wedding. The day went PERFECTLY but beyond that we didn’t stress about anything at all because we knew we were in such good hands. Rachel & her team are so calm & whenever we threw anything new at them they always managed to figure out a solution (even when it was at the last second). We love Rachel as a person & a wedding planner. Couldn’t have better things to say about our experience. The day was perfect & no stress — but so was the process! 11/10 experience.

Rachel was an absolute dream to work with. She is super organized, has great communication and follow up, and is truly a pleasure to work with. She has a very high quality vendor list to suggest for every piece of the wedding planning process. I truly loved every single vendor and it was so easy to trust the vendors to make the best call. She made what could be an overwhelming planning process feel seamless and manageable. I really appreciated how she gave checklists for each month and an organized google doc to really ensure nothing was missed. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to get married in New York. Our wedding at Blue Hill Stone Barns was so perfect thanks to Rachel! Can't thank you enough XOXOXO

We highly recommend Rachel as a wedding planner - her and her team were phenomenal to work with from start to finish! She exceeded our expectations and made our wedding day unforgettable. From the initial consultation to the wedding day, Rachel was professional, organized, and attentive to our needs. She went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect. She helped us choose the perfect venue, vendors, and provided thoughtful advice when we were indecisive (which was often). Rachel was always available to answer our questions and concerns, and she made us feel at ease throughout the planning process. On the wedding day itself, we couldn’t believe how everything came together - it truly exceeded our expectations. All of our guests couldn’t stop raving about everything, especially the decor, food, and the band. Rachel and her team were efficient and coordinated throughout the night and ensured that everything ran seamlessly. In general, we cannot recommend Rachel enough! She is passionate about her work, and it shows in the exceptional service she provides. We are forever grateful for all the hard work and dedication she put into our wedding. Thank you so much, Rachel!

Rachel and her team are the gold standard. They helped us plan our wedding in under a year and not a thing was missed. We can't wait to use RBE for future events for our family and businesses!

Rachel did an absolutely AMAZING job planning our wedding! We worked with her for over a year and she was detail oriented and well organized the entire year. She sent out monthly to do lists and was always available to answer any and all questions (and trust me, with me being a type A personality, there were MANY, MANY questions). The wedding came together absolutely perfectly and we could not have asked for a more amazing group of vendors (all of whom Rachel helped us find). When I got stressed out throughout the course of the wedding day, Rachel was always there to calm my nerves and remind me she had everything under control. She had the most detailed timeline of the day of events and made sure everything went exactly as planned. From the design of the wedding to the food to the party, dancing, organization. None of it would have been possible without Rachel and her team. Thank you, Rachel. Anyone who is looking to plan an event, please consider working with Rachel. Trust me, you will be happy you did!

Rachel was absolutely incredible! I’ve recommended her to everyone I know — she truly made all of our dreams come true. Her calm demeanor helped get me through the planning stress, she introduced us to the best vendors, and she made everything happen on the day of so I could enjoy without worry. I could not recommend Rachel more!

The wedding of our dreams was everything and more and we couldn't have done it without Rachel and RBE! After initially being hesitant about hiring a wedding planner, I know now that it was needed and the perfect decision for us! Rachel is amazing and was so helpful throughout the day from just chatting like it was a normal day (which I needed) to helping us remember to eat, hydrate, and reapply lipstick! We couldn't have done it without her!! Throughout the day and leading up to the day, we knew everything was taken care of because we had Rachel on our team. Our parents felt as calm as possible because they knew Rachel was there. Rachel worked with our venue and all of our vendors effortlessly to create a beautiful and intimate wedding. From day 1 of planning to day 365, Rachel recommended amazing vendors and coordinated so many details behind the scenes that EVERYTHING was thought and taken care of. My husband, who's a strong introvert and homebody, said so many wonderful things about the day, planning, Rachel, Brette, RBE, and our vendors! We both felt comfortable and confident in Rachel so that we could be present and enjoy the day. Everyone helped make what can be so overwhelming and stressful, comfortable and incredible!! Rachel's attention to detail, caring nature, style, and energy was exactly what we needed and were so grateful. On high emotion days like a wedding, having someone fully dedicated to the success of your event is necessary and Rachel/RBE are perfect for that! Regardless of your budget, hiring RBE in some capacity to support/plan your wedding/event will be 100% worth it!

Hiring RBE was one of the best decisions we made throughout the planning process. Our wedding would not have been possible without the creativity, attention to detail, and calm positivity that Rachel and her team brought to every step of the process. Our wedding was full of complexities given the 200+ headcount, our desire to blend religious traditions, and an unconventional venue with multiple different spaces, but Rachel approached everything with an open mind and helped us work through countless details to ensure it would be the perfect day. From the beginning, she was highly responsive and incredibly organized - it was hard to believe she was planning multiple other weddings at the same time! On the morning of our wedding, we had to completely change the layout of the wedding due to rain, and Rachel and her team coordinated with all of our vendors to make sure that every detail was taken care of. Despite the stress of having to switch to our rain plan, Rachel was such a calming presence throughout the whole day. Once the wedding started, it was clear that she had everything under control, which allowed us to really live in the moment and know that we were in the best hands. We would wholeheartedly recommend Rachel and the entire RBE team to anyone looking for a wedding planner.

I still cannot get over how absolutely magnificent of a day it was that Rachel & her team were able to create. Rachel has cultivated such an amazing team and affiliates, was such a wonderful person to work with. We feel so blessed to have worked with her and her team!! Rachel is extremely organized and kind; and especially in New York, it was a pleasure to work so closely with someone who you can tell truly enjoys their work and has so much integrity- it showed throughout our entire day and the process of planning. I don’t think we could have even imagined how perfect of a day it could be, all thanks to RBE!

The best decision we made in planning our wedding hands down was hiring Rachel and RBE. My husband and I both agree that our absolute dream wedding would never have been possible without Rachel’s care, expertise, organization, network of vendors, and professionalism. People cannot stop raving about how special our wedding was and the first thing we say is, “Thanks, we had the BEST planner, Rachel.” We had a very atypical wedding that required a lot of thought, sensitivity, logistics, and creativity. Plus, as a Type-A, creative person, I had a lot of ideas that Rachel totally embraced and made happen. Two different bands playing harmoniously together? Not only was it not a problem, Rachel knew the most talented team to make it a seamless musical experience that had the dance floor(s) going all night. My amateur sketch of wild flowers hanging from the ceiling turned into the most enchanting wedding decor? She knew the best people to execute it (and beyond!) that literally had us and our guests feel like we were living in a dream. A USPS mailbox brought in for our guestbook activation? She not only sourced it, she literally went and picked it up herself. It is also worth mentioning that Rachel is probably one of the nicest, loveliest people you will ever meet. She is so responsive and so on top of things I often told her I couldn’t believe she was also planning other weddings at the same time—that is how attentive and cared for she makes you feel. And it isn’t just “feel”—she genuinely cares about the couples she works with, creating a bespoke wedding for them, and making sure their days go perfectly. Throughout the wedding planning process and day of, we felt so at ease because Rachel was always one step ahead of us and on top of every last detail. Rachel is the best of the best of the BEST and we are immensely grateful for all her expertise, support, creativity, compassion, talent, and hard work. We would 1000000% recommend hiring Rachel, a gem of a human and the ultimate wedding planning pro!!!

One word: INCREDIBLE. We are so unbelievably thankful for Rachel and her team. She was the best decision my husband and I made when planning for our wedding day, and looking back, I wish we had hired her for full planning because WOW is she actually the best. Because of Rachel and her team, we felt so incredibly prepared and at ease when our wedding week came rolling around. People kept asking us if we were stressed about the wedding and we honestly had to say no because Rachel had literally everything under control and organized down to the last detail. She made us so at ease and relaxed that we felt we were able to enjoy and absorb every single moment of our day—it was absolutely priceless. Rachel, thank you for all you do… you are so special and talented, we are so grateful and appreciative to have had you!!!!

There aren't enough words to explain a) how incredible Rachel is at her job, and b) how immensely grateful we are to have worked with her and RBE on our wedding!!! Simply put: Our wedding would not have been possible (nor would it have been the same) without Rachel. From the first time Rachel and I spoke, I got such a good feeling from her, and also a clear sense for just how much care and effort RBE puts into each and every one their events. We knew the planning of our wedding was going to be a bit more involved and complex than most - we wanted to put on an 150-person, multi-tented wedding in the backyard of my childhood home. Rachel never once shied away from the many steps and hurdles that had to happen between the initial ideation and final execution. If it's not already obvious from, well, every other review: Rachel is the ULTIMATE event planner. Smart, thoughtful, caring, detail-oriented, organized (this was key for me), super creative, a much-needed calming presence when things got crazy... all of it applies! And her team members who were with us day-of - Brette and Anabel - were so lovely and helpful in their own right. Rachel's industry connections are a huge asset, made even better by her ability to really get at and understand precisely what we were looking for. We felt like all of the vendors she sourced for us were both the best at what they do AND the right people/companies to help realize our vision cohesively and expertly. The only negative is that we don't get to keep working with her!! Rachel, from both of us and our families who now also adore you: thank you for everything you sweet event planner angel!

Rachel Behar is, without a doubt, the VERY BEST wedding planner on the New York wedding scene today. I planned my daughter’s Brooklyn, NY wedding from Miami, and with Rachel on the ground in NY, the entire process was seamless and ultimately resulted in the most extraordinary night of our families’ lives. Rachel has amazing relationships with outstanding vendors, and she helped us assemble a team that delivered an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the creative menu (Marcey Brownstein Caterer) to the magnificent florals (Ivie Joy), to site visits and venue suggestions for the entire weekend of events and right down to the Mr. Softee ice cream truck that showed up at the end of the wedding, Rachel always knew what to do and who to call and when. Throughout the planning process, and even more importantly, on the day of the actual wedding , Rachel anticipated every need and instantly filled any need (which were few) that we did not expect to have. The entire weekend and week before went smoothly and was stress-free. Her warmth, efficiency and expert skill in making our wedding vision a reality truly allowed us all to experience every magical moment to the fullest, and we will always be grateful to Rachel for this. Working with Rachel Behar was truly a gift 💝 !

There are several qualities to look for in a wedding planner that extend beyond their ability to get the job done, and Rachel checks the box on every single one. She is extremely personable and charismatic, which makes the experience of working with her feel like you're working with a friend. This also means that she has amazing relationships with vendors in the industry that she can tap into to meet your every need (and the vendors adore her!). Rachel is detail oriented and and is able to meet you on your level, whether you want to get into the weeds or focus on the big picture. She will support and enrich whatever ideas you have for your big day and will work tirelessly on the execution. She took the stress out of wedding planning with her calm demeanor and breadth of experience. On a more personal level, Rachel is kind hearted and genuinely cares about making your wedding one of the most special days in your life and will plan it with as much care as she would her own. We could not recommend anyone better for your big day!
