From the moment we spoke with Kaci, we knew we were in good hands for our wedding!! We hired them as ‘day of coordinators’ and they did a fabulous job. Sydney was our lead, and Michaela was her assistant. They never batted an eye as to our vis...
ion. Sydney met us at the venue prior to our wedding in order to make sure that all of the details were handled. She reached out to the vendors to assist them with anything that was needed and to coordinate a timeline. She even ran our rehearsal. She handled a lot of the setup of both our ceremony and reception sites. We highly recommend them.
Kaci and Amy were the best and made sure our wedding day was absolutely perfect. We could text Kaci at any time leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day, and she always answered very quickly. We feel like we’ve known her and have been f...
riends with her our whole lives! Kaci and Amy came with an emergency kit that had everything you could ever need and kept everyone in line and on schedule. If anything went wrong, we had no idea because they took care of it before we noticed or realized. We loved working with them and would 100% recommend Simple Soirée.
Kaci and her team were an absolute dream to work with. Her advice leading up to the big day was an absolute necessity. For every question and worry, there was an answer and reassurance. Kaci assured us that she would be our behind the scenes ey...
es, ears, and hands on representative on the day of the wedding. Wow, was she ever! Kaci and her assistant Amy were everywhere, solving all the little glitches that are bound to pop up. I can honestly say that we were able to truly enjoy our daughter's wedding without a care in the world.

Rosann, it was an absolute honor assisting you all! You were a dream to work with! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us and our future couples.
Kaci was such a crucial part of our wonderful wedding and we are so grateful to her. She was the glue that held it all together through our many Covid postponements and she kept us calm all while handling stressful details for us. She was alway...
s genuine and helpful and so easy to work with - everything you want in a planner! Amy and Lisa helped on our wedding day and they were wonderful and sweet as well. Kaci is the best and will guide you to your perfect day.

Emme, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us and our future couples. You certainly went through a lot planning your wedding during covid and we are honored to have been by your side. Thank you for trusting us!
Going into the wedding process as a frugal/ financially responsible (cheap) groom there were a lot of things I wanted to cut. Thankfully the venue where we got married required us to hire a Day of Coordinator and thankfully my wife hired Simple...
Soiree.
Leading up to the big day they helped us coordinate the timeline that WE wanted and made sure to help us accommodate any needs big or small. They were also extremely prompt on returning emails. (You will learn quickly that other vendors are not) Then as you get closer they begin to coordinate with all of your vendors and get them on the same page so the day of there are no issues.
Now for the big day. I cannot put into words how stress free our day was with them running the show. Every single penny spent on them was worth it before my wife even walked down the aisle. They just took care of shit that came up, and as I'm sure you were warned, shit comes up. With their help we were able to really enjoy the day.
At the end of the day we spent a lot of money to have a wedding, but nothing returned higher dividends than having Simple Soiree as our Coordinator. The next morning people really liked the food, the entertainment was great as well, but I kid you not people talked about how smoothly the day went and even random aunts and uncles mentioned how great Kaci was....Like how does that happen!!!
PS- On the drive home my cheap ass told my wife that I wanted to give them more money because they were worth so much more for helping us have the greatest weekend of our lives.

Tom, thank you so much for taking the time to share this with us and our future couples! We had a blast with you and Danielle! We wish you two a lifetime of happiness and look forward to our paths crossing again!
I wish I could give Kaci and her team more than 5 stars. They are simply AMAZING! We had a long engagement, and we booked Simple Soiree pretty early on, but Kaci was there every step of the way. Even my family raved about her after the wedding!...
And although Kaci was my "day of coordinator", she was really there for me throughout the entire process - from the major decisions and moments, to the smallest questions. When I had concerns about COVID, she was there. When I had questions about how to address invites, she was there. When I needed to get out of a contract with an unresponsive vendor, she was there. She also took care of coordinating and talking with all of my vendors, and attended all meetings and walkthroughs with the venue. On the day of the wedding, a server spilled red wine on my wedding dress, but Kaci immediately jumped in (with Tide stick in hand) and saved the day. I could never thank her enough for giving my fiance and I the most wonderful wedding day, and I would recommend her in a heartbeat to ANYONE! Thank you SO much, Kaci and Simple Soiree!!!

lifetime of happiness! Thank you for choosing Simple Soiree!
We were lucky enough to work with Kaci as our wedding planner for our microwedding at Lauxmont Farms. I reached out to Simple Soiree because of our venue location and I was hoping to find someone familiar with the area as well as other vendors ...
in the area- I could not have found someone more perfect for that role than Kaci. From the beginning she was always available to answer any of my questions and also help give us direction in areas where we were unsure of how the wedding should flow or what would be best for our guests.
Kaci was so attentive to our needs and after we had our "one month to go" meeting, I had full faith and trust in her for our big day (not that I didn't already!)
When it came time for the big day, Kaci even showed up early to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible for us and went above and beyond our expectations.
Our wedding went off without a hitch and I fully attribute that to Kaci and her professionalism, as well as our other vendors. I cannot thank her enough for everything she did for us and for helping give us the most perfect wedding day.

Thank you so much for making our dream wedding/celebration happen!!

ht for me. My planner was Amy and she was amazing. She was supportive, helpful, and super nice. She listened to me, was a friend to me, and helped me finalize my wedding day. I don't know what I would've done the day of the wedding without her! She took my vision and made it come to life. I'm so thankful for Amy and her team for making my wedding day dream come true.

Shannon, thank you so much for your feedback! It was an absolute honor to be a part of your special day!
My daughter's wedding could not have gone more perfect thanks to Simple Soiree and our planner, Amy. There are so many compliments I would like to share but there is only so much room. I will highlight a few of them. Simple Soiree and Amy were...
very organized from my initial contact all the way to the wedding day. They followed through on all their promises, appointments and phone calls. When we needed a last minute bartending service or our caterer was being unacceptable, Amy made great recommendations and handled all of our problems. My only regret was that we did not call them before we searched and hired most of our vendors. The recommendations they made were top notch and it would have saved us a lot of time. Most importantly Amy and Courtney handled every single detail perfectly the day of the wedding. I did not have one thing to worry about or do that day other than have a great time celebrating with family and friends. Thank you AMY you are ONE IN A MILLION!

Aurora, thank you so much for your feedback! We are honored that you chose Simple Soiree and put your trust in us!
Look no farther than Kaci and the Simple Soiree team for the perfect wedding planner for your big day!
Kaci at Simple Soiree was the first vendor we booked after we selected our venue and we could not have been more grateful to have her throu...
ghout our entire planning process, than we were. We immediately clicked with her and she loved our vision. We knew we would be in great hands with her and her company. She even was right on board with all of our unique ideas. The wedding planning software she lets all of her couples use, was a breeze to use and honestly helped keep all of our planning incredibly organized. We were one of the first weddings to happen in the shutdown due to covid. Kaci went above and beyond to make sure all of our vendors were contacted and that we didn’t have to stress more than we already were. She was so comforting about it too. Not only did she do all of that once, but she did it all three times we had to postpone. When our big day finally rolled around, Kaci and her team worked like a well oiled machine. They were so organized and kept us ahead of schedule the entire day so that we had more time to dance and socialize at our reception. All of our family and friends adored her just as much as we did. In a way, we were happy to have to wait another year for our wedding because it gave us even more time to get to know her. We could not recommend her or her company enough. They all pay so much attention to every little detail and go above and beyond to give you the day of your dreams without having to stress about anything. Trust you will be in the best hands and will fully get to enjoy your wedding day for all that it is. We would recommend her to everyone we know getting married because we know she will give them the same incredible treatment that she gave us. We were not only happy to have our wedding day go so smoothly, but to have made an amazing friend in the process. Thank you so much Kaci for all that you did for us the past three years and for making our wedding day feel like a dream come true!

Hiring Kaci and the Simple Soiree team was legitimately the best decision we made with our wedding planning - they are amazing, do yourself a favor and hire them. From leading our rehearsal, to making adjustments on our incredibly windy wedding...
day, to rescuing us when we ran out of beer - they made everything flawless and they did it with the most warm and friendly hearts. I felt like we were close friends. They tackled all of our set up and tear down and helped our entire party stay on time. They made sure Ben and I had time and space to ourselves, that we were fed and that we had absolutely nothing to worry about - and I truly didn't worry about anything. I got to be fully present and soak up every moment, and I wouldn't have been able to without their team. Kaci, Amy... you guys are truly the best and we love you!

xpertise, compassion, and superior service that Kaci provided to us throughout the entire process!
So many things kept throwing us two steps back but Kaci there to catch us and take us three steps forward! When our original reception venue fell through, she found us options right away! When our original ceremony venue fell through, she also made arrangements / amendments as well!
Courteous, kind, and reassuring through it all!
The wedding day (ceremony/reception) was absolutley PERFECT.
Thanks also to Kaci's assistant that day Sydney! It was an honor to both have you a part of our wedding day!
If a wedding this amazing can happen in 2020, imagine what Simple Soiree can do for YOU in 2021.
Sincerely and with Infinite Gratitude,

our day to be exactly what you envisioned, and makes sure to always have a plan in place when there is even the slightest chance that something might not end up working out. Planning our original wedding for June of 2020 and then replanning the wedding for August of 2020 there were many obstacles along the way. Kaci contacted all of our vendors during the rescheduling process so that we didn't have so much on our plate. The process in no way phased Kaci and she always had the most positive attitude through all situations. The week before the wedding our alcohol vendor was unresponsive and she found an entirely different company to supply the alcohol, another one to supply the glassware and 3 individual bartenders for our wedding. We will forever be grateful for everything Kaci did to make our day PERFECT. It was literally the BEST DAY EVER and we couldn't have done it without Kaci or her assistant Amy on our special day.

My initial thought of a wedding planner was, "you only need that if you are super into your dream wedding and want an over-the-top wedding." I was proven wrong by a long shot!! My husband and I did the day of package, and let me tell you, IT WA...
S THE BEST DECISION IN THE WEDDING PROCESS WE MADE. We worked primarily with Amy Lukens--who is literally God's greatest gift in planning. The things Amy thought of and helped with were unreal. No wedding is perfect, and we definitely had a few hiccups we couldn't change like it being much colder on our day compared to in years prior, etc., but it was literally the BEST DAY even with the few hiccups! I am so grateful for Amy's dedication and love for her job. She did so many things that I could write a novel about--she was a coordinator, a floral designer (she took flowers hanging from a tree and made the prettiest mantel inside behind our sweetheart table), a dress helper, a drink provider, an encouraging personality, a goal maker and goalkeeper, the list goes on. Do yourself one favor and hire Simple Soiree for your coordinating! It will save you many headaches!

single part of my day went accordingly. My wedding was everything I ever dreamed of and more. Every detail was exactly how I imagined it would be--and thank GOD for their emergency kit for wardrobe malfunctions, lol. If you are considering using a planner, I HIGHLY recommend Simple Soiree. My wedding went off without a hitch, my vendors were all on the same page, and I never felt lost/abandoned/overwhelmed at all (plus I actually got to eat my dinner!). You will not be disappointed in the least if you work with these ladies--they're nothing short of incredible.
Kaci and Simple Soiree are the absolute best when it comes to wedding/event planning. I had them as my day of coordinator. She started working with me about 2 months before the big day and immediately was such a joy to work with. She was org...
anized and super responsive. She took care of everything with my vendors so that when it came close to the wedding day, I could just relax. The day of the wedding went so smoothly. I was able to eat, drink, and really enjoy the day!! I didn't have to think about anything other than marrying the love of my life. Thank you Kaci for being so wonderful and giving me the best day of my life!

Morgan,
It was an absolute honor assisting you on your unforgettable weddding day. Every detail was so beautiful and you were stunning! We wish you and John a life time of happiness. Thank you for taking the time to write a review and for placi...
ng your trust in Simple Soiree!
Simple Soiree gave us the peace of mind that I had hoped for on our wedding day! In conjunction with our venue's resources, Jodi helped us through the minutiae of planning our wedding. We only booked her for day of support, but she was also ava...
ilable to help us through email for the weeks prior and was present at the rehearsal. She was incredibly organized and detail oriented, and that helped me keep my stress levels in check. I would recommend Simple Soiree for your event!
As the mother of the bride, I can say that Jodi is the best thing that we ever did for our daughter's wedding. She save us more money than we spent on her services. She coordinated this wedding for months in advance even though we expected ju...
st day of service and some prelim meetings. She is an angel who really made us feel like family-her compliments about our selections, guidance, finding vendors that met our budget and parameters, and EVERYTHING that she did on the day of the wedding were soooooo beyond our expectations---setting up the decor, keeping everyone healthy hydrated happy!, sharing stories and listening so attentively. She made us all feel loved.
We contacted Simple Soiree for a candle aisle and festoon lights. They worked with our venue often (Cork Factory Hotel) and were highly recommended. It was clear why they came so recommended from the start; Jodi kept in communication, the costs...
were extremely fair and the end result was BEAUTIFUL! We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Simple Soiree did an amazing job on the decor for our weddding. They were extremely flexible working with our venue to make sure that everything was perfect well before our event began. We had hanging string lights, and beautiful white tapes...
try covers, and it looked AMAZING!! Highly recommend Jodi and her team. You will not be disappointed!
I wish I could give more stars for how great Jodi and her team were to work with. They are a class act for sure. Every single detail was covered, and the day-of prep was awesome. There wasn't one thing I had to worry about because I knew Jodi w...
ould have it covered. I highly recommend Simple Soiree for any event, especially weddings! Thank you so much Jodi for making our wedding perfect!
I'll admit I wasn't convinced I needed a day of coordinator but my fiancé convinced me to hire someone so I didn't have to stress on our wedding day. All I can say is thank goodness for Jodi! After seeing her in action I realize we would never ...
have pulled our wedding off without her. From keeping us on time, to moving guests efficiently from cocktails to dinner she was the hardest working vendor we had!! Worth every penny and more. Thank you Jodi and team for making our wedding everything we dreamed of.
Jodi and the Simple Soiree team were a delight to work with. They were very professional and organized, and helped us plan all aspects of our wedding day, including many details that I never would have thought of! The flow of our wedding could ...
not have been any better, and a lot of the credit has to be given to the behind-the-scenes work done by them. They were even able to coordinate an amazing sparkler send off after our wedding was over!
Jodi did an absolutely amazing job. From my first time meeting with her to my wedding day, Jodi was there for my husband and I. She was able to capture our vision for the day and made sure the things that mattered to us were her top priority. J...
odi communicated with us weeks prior to our wedding day to organize our contract and help us see any important things that we may have overlooked. If there were any issues on our wedding day, we did not know. Jodi helped keep the day moving seamlessly and made sure not only my husband and I, but our family and friends were taken care of. She continually checked in on me during the day and made me feel special. I recommend Jodi 100%! When I began the wedding process I didn't know if I would need a planner, but now I can't imagine my day without her.
I handled the majority of our planning but knew I needed someone in the home stretch to help pull everything together and oversee all day-of aspects. Jodi was a great fit and kept me sane in the month leading up to our wedding! Having someone t...
o confirm, coordinate and finalize details with all your vendors is a huge weight off your shoulders when you have many other details to worry about - once she had the necessary contact info, she took the lead! Jodi was very accommodating in meeting and talking with me based on my schedule since I lived out of state. When the weather report showed it would be unseasonably hot (95 degrees in September), she helped rework details with my venue, had my back when they tried to push back:) and assured me everything would be great. She and her assistant made sure all ran smoothly, got everyone where they needed to be, and paid attention to all the many details that were important to me. Thank you Simple Soirée for keeping up with my crazy and being a great support in pulling off our big day!!
Originally when planning a wedding with ALL the expenses, we decided that we could cut corners and plan our wedding ourselves. Butttt a month into planning and realizing ALL the work we needed to do, we hired simple Soiree and thank goodness we...
did!!! Jodi did an AMAZING job planning our wedding of our dreams! There are sooo many details that go into a wedding and there would have been no way we would've been able to enjoy our day without the help of simple Soiree. Their organization , timelines, communication are just a few of simple Soiree's amazing qualities. Jodi even ran to a rental place to pick up our sweetheart table my husband forgot to bring to the venue!! Jodi and her assistant went above and beyond our expectations
We would've been lost without a wedding planner and highly would recommend them to anyone! Affordable and well worth EVERY penny!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Our wedding was executed absolutely flawlessly thanks to Jodi's expertise, judgement, professionalism, patience, and hard work!! We couldn’t have asked for a better day with better vendors and are grateful that she was able ...
to smoothly coordinate all of them…and us :)
Specifically, Jodi went above and beyond to work with the venue, florist and caterer to make our wedding cake (which was damaged while in route to the venue) look like nothing went wrong! She also perfectly displayed all of our decor and packed everything up nicely at the end of the night. It was as if we had a fairy godmother looking after us all day!
We received countless compliments on how well organized the event turned out and are very grateful to Jodi for coordinating the wedding of our dreams!
As a pretty involved Groom I was extremely happy with the level of service Jodi provided! She is a true professional that is passionate about what she does! She was able to put my wife and I at ease the weeks and months leading up to our weddin...
g and you simply can't put a price on that 😀 The day of our wedding she was on the ball and had a great handle on the itinerary and a true command of the day! If something didn't go as planned on our wedding day my wife and I had no clue and still don't and that's fine by us 😀 Jodi - if you see this thank you again for all your help!!
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Jodi and Simple Soiree!!! I knew I wanted a day-of coordinator, and I spoke with a few different people, but even in my initial conversation with Jodi I could tell that she would be clear, organized, and...
highly supportive. I do not know how we would have gotten through the last few weeks of planning and the wedding day without her!
She was very communicative with me, as well as with our vendors, and kept everything running smoothly. I was especially happy with the way that she quickly understood what I was looking for and could communicate it to our vendors. She came with me to visit my venue, she made really helpful suggestions, and made the process fun! Her calm and focused demeanor not only made me feel confident that she could handle whatever happened during the event, but also that I could let go of feeling like I needed to control everything.
I highly recommend Jodi and Simple Soiree's services - they are stellar!
Jodi's coordination, eye for detail and calmness were so key in making the day run so smoothly. She was very patient and jumped in and took everything off my plate (even when I tried to still do it on my own!) and just let us enjoy the day and ...
take it all in. Jodi was very helpful in day-of coordination and managing the different vendors and process throughout the day!
Jodi and her team made my wedding day stress free! Although she was technically my "day of planner." She was always available to chat and give advice leading up to the big day. She is very reliable, professional, and will make your day fly wi...
th ease.
Jodi with Simple Soiree could not have been more perfect for our November wedding. I found Jodi online and sent her an email asking some questions. Jodi not only had very prompt responses throughout our entire working relationship, but went a...
bove and beyond her "contractual obligations." Jodi helped me figure out wedding etiquette, how to make both families happy and feel involved, as well as recommended vendors for what we had still outstanding closer to the wedding day. Jodi also helped me to keep myself organized and encouraged very clear, well planned communication. As a result, Jodi and her team at Simple Soiree executed our plan effortlessly and expertly. We truly had the smoothest wedding day with SO many moving pieces that Jodi and her team were able to keep in perfect harmony on our special day. Jodi kept calm, cool and collected, kept the ENTIRE bridal party (families included)as well as all vendors on time and added the perfect touches to our day. Jodi is not only one of the best event coordinators that I have ever worked with, but she is someone I would consider a friend after having worked with her. She is remarkable and I would recommend her for any event you are planning, especially a wedding.
We hired Simple Soirée to be our day of wedding coordinator and it was one of the best decisions I made! We wanted to have a rustic, outdoor DIY wedding and I became overwhelmed with all the final details especially in the last couple of mont...
hs leading up to it thinking about how I was going to pull it all off. That's where Jodi came in. She met me on site about six weeks out from my wedding date and helped to see my vision, made phone calls to all the vendors to finalize arrangements, helped lead and facilitate our rehearsal and ultimately helped to orchestrate the entire wedding! I didn't worry about one detail on my wedding day, I knew everything would come together beautifully with Jodi and her assistant there. I would highly recommend Simple Soiree to any engaged couple , but especially to someone who is trying to pull off a DIY wedding! Thank you to Jodi for her professionalism, attention to detail, thoroughness and vision! Working with you was AWESOME. My day could not have been more perfect and I am so incredibly thankful for everything you did!
Simple Soiree planned our wedding while we were living in an entirely different state (we got married in PA). Jodi provided so much guidance and had a vision for the wedding that lined up with mine perfectly. The ceremony and reception were pur...
ely magical to walk in to. With it being so hard to communicate over the phone and email, I didn't know how well my ideas would be explained, but Jodi and her team made our wedding more beautiful than my husband and I could have imagined. She also was able to get us an amazing photographer that was booked up for the rest of year, and we are so grateful for that. Simple Soiree is incredible!
Jodi Bukowski and Simple Soiree did an absolutely fantastic job for our wedding. My wife and I got married at a venue that was a couple hours away from where I lived. We required day-of coordination, but a bit more as well in terms of logistica...
l advice and planning. We had some communication issues with our venue, and Jodi helped us work through them and strategize around them. In moments of stress, the conversations we had with her reduced it and allowed us to come up with good contingency plans. She went above and beyond in those services, and made many trips to the venue to meet with us.
When it came to day-of coordination, Jodi and her team kept everything running smoothly, made sure the ceremony was timed correctly, and coordinated the vendors so we didn't have to think about much. One hiccup occurred before right before cocktail hour: we had tasked a friend to deliver mixers but there was some confusion about it, and the cocktail hour started before they could be delivered. Jodi and her team were on it, and were just about to make a last minute run to a local store to purchase backup mixers when our friend arrived with them. The care and attention to detail, as well as the absolute focus on making sure our wedding went smoothly, was fantastic. We highly recommend Jodi and her team for your wedding.
I would highly recommend Simple Soiree to any bride. Simple Soiree did an excellent job helping to organize and plan my wedding. Jodi and her staff were exceptional under extreme circumstances (pouring rain all day) to keep everything under c...
ontrol to create a beautiful memorable day. Her team adapted the layout and timeline on the spot to create an event that moved forward as if that was the original plan.
Her recommendations for vendors were perfect. We had so many compliments on the food, flowers and layout. Her coordinating services the week before and on that day helped immensely to relieve my stress and allow things to run smoothly.
Jodi and her team went above and beyond to make our special day extraordinary!!
They were very professional, easy to work with, and very kind in all communications. I was pleased with the look of the fabric wall and lighting for the wedding.
Jodi Bukowski thank you so much for making our wedding day the most amazing day of our lives. You took all of our dreams and made it a reality! I was able to take in the whole day without any stress because I had you and your team. You are a gr...
eat person, not just wedding planner and I can't thank you enough!
Jodi was phenomenal to work with. She was very friendly and had great communication skills. Simple Soiree added the perfect touch to our romantic themed wedding. I would definitely recommend Simple Soiree. Thank you!

Jodi from Simple Soiree was amazing to work with! She saw the vision and made it come to life above and beyond expectations! She was very open with her communication and ideas. Definitely worth every penny spent!
My fiance and I were lucky enough to hear about Simple Soiree through our videographer and to see some of the work in his video footage. What we saw was beautiful and after viewing the website, we were very eager to get in touch with Jodi.
T...
hroughout the entire process, Jodi was extremely helpful, fun, innovative, budget-conscious, and responsive. All of her ideas were great and in my opinion, it was clear that she really wanted the best for our special day.
There were certain things we wanted to bring to the ceremony and reception that fell under the services that Simple Soiree provides, but Jodi could not have been more accommodating and understanding as to why they were important that we take care of those items.
On the day of the wedding, I was able to watch Jodi and her team as they decorated the chuppah. The attention to every detail was impressive and shows how much they care about their work product. Jodi even stopped by right before the ceremony, to give the chuppah another once-over and make sure it looked great. The ballroom looked incredible - the canopy above the dance floor got so many compliments, the sweetheart table and drapery looked amazing, and the uplighting really made the room look so special and elegant.
Jodi also helped coordinate our floral arrangements: The flowers could not have been more beautiful and we really could not have asked for anything more. We thought the tables looked amazing and were blown away at how a vision could become such a beautiful reality in such a short amount of time.
I would recommend Simple Soiree to anyone – Jodi takes the time to get to know her client and is amazing at what she does. We were so thrilled that they were available to help us create a beautiful night.
I don't know how I would have pulled off my wedding day without Jodi and her team! My venue required a day-of coordinator and I did not realize until I started working with Jodi how much I needed her! She offered such great advice and was ver...
y flexible and accommodating with my schedule and needs. In the weeks and days leading up to the wedding she took care of contacting all of the vendors and coordinating arrivals, etc., it took so much off my plate. My day would not have been nearly as perfect as it was without Jodi making things happen that day!
Simple Soiree was a pleasure from the beginning. The room looked amazing thanks to the linens and the room decor we rented and the service was top notch. All emails and phone calls were returned right away. The pricing was very fair.
Than...
ks so much for all your help with our awesome day!!
We chose Simple Soiree as a recommendation through our venue at The Inn at Leola Village. It is a venue where you have the ceremony & reception in the same room so we needed a 'curtain' to be in place to hide the tables. This company did an I...
NCREDIBLE job. Quite honestly, I never saw them or came in contact with them on the wedding day - which I consider an amazing thing! They came in, did their job (and the curtain looked fantastic - we used white as recommended by our photographer) and when the doors opened for the reception the curtain was gone! They did exactly as was asked. I definitely recommend this company!
Response from the Vendor on 12/16/2014
Thank you for your kind words Mrs. Coupe! It was our pleasure to work with you. We love what we do for amazing clients like you.
Recently we used Simple Soiree to enhance the lighting at our sons wedding. We loved how Jodi and her team transformed the terrace area into a magical room for our guests!
Thank you for being so incredible to work with!

If you're using a professional decorator or even hiring a wedding planner Simple Soirée is a must have for your wedding.
Simple Soiree is amazing! We used them for décor on a day when our wedding venue was double booked so there was very little wiggle room in our timeline. Everything had to be set up quickly between the first wedding and ours and on top of that o...

Jodi and Simple Soiree came to my rescue even before our wedding. I was feeling generally stressed and remember getting particularly overwhelmed about our invitation language... Whose name goes first, mom or dad's? We aren't children, how else ...
can we word that? What does convention dictate?
Jodi took gentle command, set us straight, and the stress started disappearing after that.
She's got an eye for detail and really knows her stuff. Her experience is evident and her demeanor was just perfect for this stressed bride.
