Simply Events

wonderful she was throughout the whole process. She helped us get all of the details nailed down so come wedding day, everything went smoothly. Both personally and professionally, I cannot figure out one thing she could have done better! Thank you so much Kayla and Simply Events!

ain when my next daughter gets married.

ganized. I assumed I could handle it myself. Well let me tell you how deeply wrong I was, and how 100% right our venue was to have us add Simply Events. Wow did they prove me wrong. Deb was hired to be our day-of coordinator, but she was much more than that to me. Weeks prior to the wedding she came to the final walk through with me at the venue and was an absolute joy. I could tell she was taking thorough notes and felt no worries in the world. For the next several weeks leading up to the wedding, she was incredibly responsive and always had an answer for me. She handled everything that I threw at her, and did it with grace and a big smile. She took away so much of my stress leading up to the day, including confirming all details with all of my vendors for me and making sure she had each and every detail straight. The day before the wedding she not only came to the rehearsal, but partially lead the rehearsal for me, making sure every person involved in the ceremony knew exactly what they were supposed to be doing. She even offered to keep an array of items in her car overnight for me to bring with her to the venue since I could not drop them off at the venue early (and also picked up food for the bridal party on her way to the venue!). Day of, there were so many last minute things that came up that I certainly didn't anticipate, but that I also didn't even hear. She kept me in a beautiful blissful bubble, and put out every fire without my even knowing. No one in the bridal party was wanting for anything the entire day, and every detail was perfect. At the end of cocktail hour I had red wine spilled on the back of my dress, and she was there in seconds pulling me into a back room and applying cleaning solutions to it that she keeps in her emergency kit. It was simply unbelievable how seamless Deb and her team made that day, and I could not be more grateful. You will NOT regret booking Simply Events!

e. He organized everything with our vendors the day of. He was so great to work with leading up to our wedding, meeting with us twice which was amazing. When we first started planning our wedding we were in Louisiana and Dave accommodated meeting with me, and after we moved to North Carolina he accommodated meeting with both myself and my husband. Dave was incredible, his assistant was amazing - and our whole day turned out perfect with so much credit to them for coordinated so much!

a team environment! She even picked up our cake and lunch for us on the day of the wedding

nowledgeable, professional and really cares that your day is perfect. She goes above and beyond and your day will be better than you ever expected. We would recommend her to everyone!! Thanks, Nicole. :)

he made sure everything was perfect. My husband and I had some unique decorations and she and Liz made sure they were exactly how we wanted them placed! I received many compliments from my other vendors about Kayla and her thoroughness and coordination. I would highly HIGHLY recommend Simply Events!!!!

y-of details. All of that work paid off because our wedding day could not have been more perfect! I am type A and can be controlling, but I did not have to worry about a thing and was just able to enjoy the special day, knowing Kayla had it all under control!

y Events! I couldn't recommend them more!

erful making sure that we had no worries! We were able to walk into the venue and see all of our dreams set up before our eyes all without lifting a finger! Throughout the night, the team made sure everything went smoothly and that everyone was in the right place at the right time. At the end of the night, Kayla and her team had cleaned up and packed all of our items into our cars before we could even think to. We are so incredibly thankful to Simply Events for all of their hard work and for making our day so special :).

s how I know they both did a great job. They were so patient and on top of everything, and really just an awesome team to work with. THANK YOU!!!!

she provided super helpful vendor tips that helped my husband and I stay in budget on our wedding day. As the wedding got closer, we did our venue walk through and I can’t say enough wonderful things about how creative, patient, and fun she is! We had some last minute changes with our guest book and Amy saved the day with her creativity and kindness. During our last walk through she went over everything with us and we could feel that she was excited for us. We were sooo glad to have her as our coordinator. She even helped us come up with a cake- cutting song last minute (we forgot)! She created a timeline and communicated with our other vendors. Her help leading up to the big day was above and beyond what we could have imagined. The day of the wedding, Amy and Tori helped everything go smoothly. There was a slight difficulty with one of our other vendors and Amy handled it beautifully. We were amazed at her ability to work with the vendors. Amy and Tori were so much fun and we loved spending time with them on our wedding day. We really felt like we’d gotten to know them and felt like we had known them for years after working with them. I feel so so lucky to have had Amy help us with our planning and coordinating. I would recommend her and Tori to anybody!

a coordinator for their special day.

onal but also easy to build a relationship with! It was a really great time and everything about our wedding was perfect thanks to this team!

start! Where I couldn't have asked for more was the weekend of, and day of my wedding. Nicole is professional, patient, caring, thoughtful, and was cool, calm, and collected on my day. She kept me informed when necessary, and took control of things that didn't need my attention (thank God, 1 less thing to think about!). She went above and beyond her job description, and really showed that she cared about me as a bride and our day. I appreciated her attention to detail and can-do attitude. My mother commented that Nicole took care of my wedding as if it was her own, and I couldn't agree more! I would recommend Nicole anyday to anyone... and I have! As I'm writing this I caught a view of the comment below (8/16/19 by Cristina A) and it's so similar to my experience (even the cool, calm, and collected!! haha!) Nicole you are fantastic! Your brides love you!

, she clearly understood our vision for the day, she sent us vendor suggestions, followed up carefully, and met with us in person early on to make sure we were all on the same page. During the months and weeks leading up to our wedding, Nicole kept us organized and contacted vendors, organized the day perfectly, sent detailed timelines, and thought about all the details. She communicated with our family members, offered help during the wedding rehearsal, and stayed to help with set up and clean up both the day before and the day of the wedding. I truly cannot recommend her highly enough (and her assistant Amanda), and I hope I get to work with Nicole on other big events in the future. She was calm, cool, and collected, and allowed for us to enjoy our day without thinking about anything other than having a good time. Thank you, Nicole, for being so personable and welcoming! You made us feel like family, and you crushed it!

vents team! We can’t thank you guys enough! Simply Events is a must hire!

wedding. Nicole was a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend her.

and we are eternally grateful for all of her hard work. There is no other wedding planner in the area that we could recommend with such confidence and would not change a thing if given the chance. Simply Events is amazing! Nicole nailed it.

f every step we needed to do in order to ensure our day was perfect. We highly recommend Simply Events :)

g. I did get a bit nervous the week of my wedding as I got my day of timeline only a day or two before the wedding and there were changes that needed to be made but it all worked out. They had a final checklist to fill in which was immensely helpful in answering questions that I never thought of.

ntly, even as the wedding stress started really setting in! She answered every email speedily, and always went above and beyond to help me, even if she didn't immediately have answers for me. Nicole kept me on track and asked me all of the right questions. She made sure I considered things well ahead of time that I would have never thought of on my own! Nicole was patient with me as I took my time making up my mind on things, and didn't bat an eye when I changed my mind again. On my wedding day she handled everything with Grace and never let me see her sweat. I'd hire Nicole and Simply Events again in a heart beat!

ek, and ensuring that our day was executed flawlessly, just as we wanted it to be. She was the sweetest person and went with the flow of exactly what we wanted, even if it was a bit offbeat! From the first meeting about a year before the wedding, I knew she would be great. She worked with my busy work schedule and was super flexible in planning calls. Essentially, she went above and beyond in every way. I'll never forget that the day of the wedding as I was rushing to get things done, she completed a DIY thing that I'd saved until the last minute and couldn't get done. Anyway, she and her assistant saved the day in so many ways. They answered questions big and small and assuaged my nerves. I can't thank them enough and would hire them again in a heartbeat! Totally worth every penny.

the wedding day because Amy and Lizz made sure everything was taken care of and ran smoothly. We were extremely grateful to have them on our team of vendors.

me and we are going to miss working with her! She seemed to have the answer and solution to everything. She took a lot of pressure and responsibility off of my mom and my aunt and she totally knew what she was doing every step of the way. I'm so glad we partnered with her to help execute the perfect wedding day. If you want a kind, patient, knowledgeable wedding planner, Amy of Simply Events is your woman!

r from Simply Events. They are amazing!!

as possible. Amy and her assistant, Laura, were incredibly organized and detail-oriented, which allowed us to feel very relaxed and confident in the days leading up to our wedding and even during our wedding. From the moment our wedding rehearsal ended, we truly felt like we were “off-duty”. Amy and Laura provided on-the-spot problem solving when needed and kept everyone on-task throughout the day. Everyone knew exactly where they needed to be and when. At the end of the night, the Simply Events crew even helped our family load all of our gifts and decor into their cars. We highly recommend using Simply Events for wedding coordination and could not be more grateful for their presence on our wedding day.

le, their coordinator, went above and beyond to troubleshoot problems and work with the vendors. It was not only everything we needed, but they made sure our day was everything WE wanted. They are a cut above the rest for sure! Highly recommend this top quality service.

She really made our day special and made sure that we had enough time to enjoy the little details.She took so much pressure of my husband and I and I couldn't recommend her enough!!

ecommend!

talking about him, and some of the vendors told me he was the best wedding planner they have ever worked with. Whenever any one asks me what is what like having an "a la cart" wedding - I tell them I couldn't have done it without David!

o check in and always encourage me. She is truly the sweetest, so selfless, and so giving. She left our reception a little early because of doctors orders and left us in THE BEST HANDS. This showed us that every individual working for Simply Events is amazing. I am so grateful for Nicole and her team! I highly highly recommend Simply Events!!

needed. She was so quick to respond to emails and any questions I may have had. She went above and beyond to make sure that my wedding day was everything I could have ever wanted. Everything they did was exactly how I had pictured it, I can't even begin to explain how blown away I am by their service. I will absolutely recommend them for years to come.

only our wedding ideas/thoughts but he also wanted to learn about our relationship as a couple. It was evident from our first meeting that Dave is passionate about what he does and goes above and beyond to ensure his clients have the most perfect day. And we certainly did! Dave was able to wrangle our large bridal party, families, and guests and effectively communicated with all of our vendors leading up to the wedding. He is amazing! He answered any/all questions we had and worked with us to think about the overall flow of the day. On our wedding day, his assistant Kayla was with him and she was equally as wonderful! We would highly recommend Dave, Kayla, and Simply Events to anyone looking for incredible coordinating services.

answering our questions, problem-solving, working diligently to make sure everything was running on time and smoothly, smiling, carefully checking the lists, etc. What my husband and I did was have fun with our guests, focus on our daughter, relax, smile, dance, and enjoy every moment of that special day without worrying about those many details that Deb was overseeing. It was a stress-free and fun-filled day for us, and we are so very thankful that we hired her to be our wedding coordinator. What a great service Simply Events provide! I highly recommend them.

nd moving them onto hers. She attended our final wedding planning meeting at the venue, coordinated with all of our vendors, provided a lot of helpful advice, helped execute the details of our day flawlessly, and made sure that everything we needed went home with us at the end of the night. Her team worked seamlessly with the venue coordinators and our other vendors to make everything happen even better than we planned! Having the support of Deb and her team was a huge weight off our shoulders - I highly recommend working with Simply Events!

we all were able to enjoy every moment wth confidence and relaxation. From vendor reviews, to last minute requests, to day of assistance and organization, they made Emily and Mike's event seamless and stress free for us! We can't thank them enough from the bottom of our hearts for all they provided along the way and especially on that day!! I highly, highly recommend their services!! Thanks Deb and Lizz..... Job well done!!

emselves available to help leading up to our wedding, and seamlessly executed day-of. They made our day perfect.

d to keep my calm on my wedding day. She quickly picked up on what was causing me stress and ran interference when necessary. Even afterwards, when we had some follow up questions, she happily helped us out. As my husband said, Amy saved our wedding, because I'm pretty sure without her I would have ended up curled up in a ball the whole weekend. If you're on the fence about if you need a DoC, get off of it and hire Simply Events and Amy IMMEDIATELY.

or weddings (it was an old water filtration building, no longer in use). We had to hire several vendors, bring absolutely everything in, and transform the space entirely. With that said, it was a very involved process, requiring a lot of detail, and I would not have been able to do it, without Deb's help. She took it upon herself to work directly with all of our vendors, coordinated vendor schedules/itineraries for days leading up to the wedding, as well as, the day of the wedding. She was at the venue helping to set up the day before the wedding, the morning of the wedding, throughout the day, and even stayed after we left, to help clean up. She took care of everything to ensure that my husband and I could enjoy our day. Her dedication and hard work blew me away. Throughout the entire process, she comforted me when I needed to be comforted and understood me when I needed to be understood. I can not encourage all brides to use her and her team at Simply Events, enough!!!

Again thank you ladies for everything! :)

t off right away. Nicole is kind, patient, professional, knowledgeable and attentive to details. She is excellent with communication, always gets back right away, and is so patient with all of a bride’s million questions. Nicole took time to attend a venue walk though and was SO attentive to all of the details, suggesting great ideas and doing everything she could to make the plan for the day seamless. She attended our rehearsal dinner and kindly wrangled all of our friends and family into a quick and easy ceremony rehearsal. Then on the day of!! Nicole is the FAIRY GODMOTHER of Wedding planners. I did not stress once or worry about anything. She was there throughout the day, working insanely hard to make everything beyond perfect. We were expecting 100% rain for the full week and night before the wedding, but Nicole knew our dream was for an outdoor cocktail hour and ceremony. We had set up for the rain locations the night before but only a few hours before our wedding Nicole coordinated moving EVERYTHING to the outdoor location. The amount of work she quietly and generously did were outstanding. I didn’t raise a finger to clean up after the reception, which in itself was amazing, but it was mostly the feeling of knowing that she was in my corner, wanting only the best and most beautiful for us that put me so at ease. Everyone in my wedding party and family loved her and I consider her a friend. If you are getting married, choose Simply Events and the package that is right for you, and Nicole if you can!, but I am sure all of the planners there are amazing. You will not regret it!

ened throughout the day, got done! I can't thank her enough!!

wedding. Our wedding day went off without a hitch and they even stayed late to help us pack. If you are on the fence about hiring Amy, ask for my email address and I will gladly answer any questions (Joe @ 5/5/18).

process - we booked them almost a year in advanced and she was always available to answer any questions. When it came down to the timeline the couple weeks before she had everything organized and the day off Weng’s off without a hitch! Even more perfect of a day than I could have imagined!

g right as our ceremony ended. There were a lot of hurdles throughout the day but Deb and her team handled them all flawlessly to make sure our day was absolutely perfect. I would recommend Simply Events without hesitation.

on the wedding day!

t). Amy was always checking in on us, calming my nerves down. She is seriously an ANGEL. I was worried about everything "coming together" on the day of the wedding. When I arrived at venue to get ready, Amy was there to greet me with a smile. She put the whole thing together that day, without me having to worry about anything. Numerous guests of ours stated that we had the best wedding planner ever, and they saw her running all around the day of, making sure nothing fell to the wayside. Kevin and I are forever grateful for Simply Events & Amy. I do not know what we would've done without them!!

uld highly recommend hiring this vendor for your wedding!! Thank you!!

n the sense of my major indecisiveness, last minute choices and my lack of being on time for anything but Deb was wonderful! They were great to get along with and went above and beyond my expectations the day of! We brought a lot of our own rentals and did not have wait staff and they just really kept on top of everything from decor to dinner to working with our officiant and helping organize our ceremony right beforehand since we did not have a rehearsal and I had a particular order and fashion I wanted things to happen in and Deb got everyone together and gave them the run down and got everyone in order and it went off without a hitch! I HIGHLY recommend Simply Events and their team! They really pulled through, blew us away, I only wish I had more time during the day to let them know how much I appreciated all they did for us!

ays heard how stressful planning a wedding was and I waited for the shoe to drop, with Amy it never did. I can’t imagine our day without Amy. Anything I said I had to do, she said no that’s my job! The day of came and she moved the entire day. from keeping track of the vendors, to her emergency supply kit, from rearranging the venue, she even got our guests drinks from the bar! Many of our guests complimented how hard she worked. I absolutely can’t imagine our day without Amy and team. We are a little sad we don’t have to work with her on anything. Thanks to Amy and Simply Events, your service is worth so much more than the cost!

y wedding would have been so perfect without the attention to detail and organized planning that Simply Events helped with.

g the entire day. I highly recommend Simply Events to everyone!!!

ing! She never failed to encourage me and make my job ten times easier. She was always willing to go the extra mile to make our big day perfect. Simply Events runs a great business, and I would reccomend them to anyone! Everyone involved in our wedding was in awe of Nicole and how awesome she was. Oh, and Ginger, her day of assisstant, was just as sweet! These two made the day run so smoothly and had everything exactly as we wanted it.

ce was very reasonable given what you get in return. I would recommend them if you're looking for an affordable wedding planner!

re of. None of my family or myself had to worry or stress about anything. She went out of her way and spent extra time making sure everything was in order. I'm pretty sure she almost melted away running around on our hot wedding day:) She literally has everything you could think of in an emergency with her, including super glue which I never would have thought of needing. Amy and her team were always in communication with each other and the vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page. They are worth every penny and more. Everyone starts out wedding planning thinking they can do it without a wedding planner, but trust me, I had SO much fun on my wedding day, and that wouldn't have happened without Amy. She will also find you awesome vendors within your budget. Our families continue to talk about how thankful they were for the team being there. Ask for Amy Thomas if you decide to go with Simply Events.

anning my sister's wedding as well, as she was so fantastic with planning mine. We have the highest praise for her and her work - she's the best! Definitely recommend.

my daughter.

and the team at Simply Events did an INCREDIBLE job. I am still smiling thinking about how incredible everything was!

someone who would add the most value while not costing more than my wedding dress! I was very happy to meet Amy and Ginger from Simply Events. They were down-to-earth, extremely kind and understanding, and very professional. Not only that, but they worked with integrity, honesty, and sincerity. When I handed over my wedding vendors and plans to Amy, I felt like I could trust her, which is huge for me. Planning most of the wedding by myself was like choosing the exact pieces that I wanted at the best rate I could get them for; hiring Simply Events to be my day of coordinators was letting them glue all those pieces I had chosen into a smooth, cohesive wedding day. In retrospect, I think day-of wedding coordinators are essential for a stress-free day, and Amy Thomas did not disappoint. She was there at every point of the day, helping, directing, and readjusting things behind the scenes so that my family, friends, and myself did not have to. At the end of the day, you want to enjoy every moment of your wedding day, and Amy and her team were key in helping me do just that. The day went perfectly! Being someone who regularly plans large events and conferences, it was such a delight not to have to take charge on my wedding day. Thank you Amy and Ginger!

in answering questions and recommending vendors. After we were lucky enough to be paired with Lexi, she sat down with my husband and I about a month before our wedding to get a feel for our hopes for the wedding, details and to make a list of what was left to do. She was honest, organized, professional and assured us that our day would be all that we wanted. We left our meeting with all the confidence in the world and boy did Lexi live up to her promise!On our wedding day, she showed up early and was ready to work. She only had 2 answers to any of our requests throughout the day - "it's already taken care of" or "absolutely we can do that for you." Lexi was so pleasant, easy to work with and energetic; her enthusiasm was so contagious and exactly what any bride could hope for. I did not have to worry about anything the day of my wedding (including timelines!). Since our wedding, we have been singing Lexi's praises for giving us exactly what we wanted and helping us create a beautiful and memorable day. We were so impressed by Lexi and would wholeheartedly recommend her and Simply Events to any (and every) bride!

o go over all of our vendors and ideas/plans for our wedding weekend. She was extremely organized and reassured that our day would be nothing short of amazing. She was right! Lexi and her team put me at ease and I was able to relax and enjoy every second of our wedding weekend. She also took the pressure off my mom, mother in law, and sisters so they could enjoy the wonderful weekend as well! Lexi worked with all of our vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page. She was amazing, friendly, organized, and fun! I am so extremely grateful I hired Lexi and Simply Events. One of the best decisions I made during the whole wedding planning process! Thank you for helping make Andy and my wedding weekend an unforgettable blast!

ays, she did anything and everything she could to be make me a stress free happy bride. Lexi actually drove to my hotel to pick something up for me the day of my wedding. From organizing rehearsal to packing up the last of the décor the night of my wedding, this team was fabulous. Thank you so much for the best day of my life.

jority of the leg work to set-up and tear down the venue decorations! We were very impressed with her and her friendly demeanor made it a delight to work with her!

Pastor Les.

was always there for moral support. They set things up and tore things down. This team is warm-hearted and so down to earth that you feel so comfortable around them. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Simply Events for a day of coordinator.

rtunate to have them.
