Strange Events

mony and reception in different locations, we were so lost on how to come up with a schedule of events. Renee visited our reception venue with us and helped us come up with a detailed schedule for our wedding day. She served as the primary point of contact with vendors in the 2 weeks leading up to the wedding, which helped reduce the pre-wedding stress for us and our families. Ali was our event manager and she was amazing! She kept the reception moving on schedule and she thought of all the little details (especially making sure we didn't miss out on the food and drinks), so we were able to fully "check-out" and enjoy the moments with our guests and each other. Highly recommend Strange Events! Their level of support and involvement was exactly what we needed for our wedding!

its full potential. Our day-of coordinator Wendy and her staff were pleasant and professional, and the wedding went off without so much as a hitch. It was the proudest day of our lives, thanks in no small part to Strange Events!

y and all expectations. She did monthly check-ins with us and supported us through the planning and preparation process, gave us incredible recommendations for other vendors and services, eased our worries when we weren’t sure how everything was going to align, and was so flexible and ready with a perfect solution to any issue! Our original plan was to get married outside, but unfortunately the weather would not allow it. Renee jumped into action and created the most beautiful spot inside our venue for our ceremony using what she had on hand. You would never have known it was put together the day of! Thanks to Renee and her team, my husband and I were truly able to just enjoy our day without having to worry about a single thing; we are going to be able to look back on this day with only positive memories and no “but then this happened…” thanks to Renee being so amazing at what she does! We will be forever thankful we hired her!

also had contact with Renee (the owner). To start this process I found neither Renee or Melissa were understanding my vision for the day and also kept pushing different vendors that I previously mentioned I wouldn’t be hiring (DJ, Cake Baker, etc). After the 5th time between the two of then my point was finally taken. Beyond this one kink, this was such a worthwhile investment for our wedding day. Melissa made herself available for literally MONTHS to answer any questions we had and ease all our worries. She checked in monthly and then the month of/a couple weeks before the wedding she took over all major vendor contact and reached out almost daily to confirm details as needed. I had hired most of our vendors almost a year before our wedding, so to have that responsibility taken off my plate was a life savor. Beyond Melissa’s incredible work for the day of we also had two workers and a second coordinator that took over when Melissa had to step away. The workers, Chris and Wendy, were such a huge help! Again, this was something I originally thought I wouldn’t need, but they really made the day flow sooo smoothly. Since this was in our backyard, having the extra hands keeping people out of the house, pouring drinks, cleaning up and resetting for dessert, along with checking in with me and my Husband to make sure we were all set was THE BEST. Long story long, Melissa, Chris, Wendy, and Lori (second coordinator) were such a great team. 10/10 recommend even if you’re having a 40 guest wedding ion your backyard like we did.

Dahneshia. We had our plans to decorate the day before the wedding and they jumped right in and helped wherever needed. Their knowledge and sensible suggestions were awesome. You might think you had everything figured out and they’d come up with great suggestions. If you forgot about something they offered up to bring it the next day “like water pitchers”. The staff and coordinator All worked so well together and we loved them right off. It was so nice not to have to worry about anything because we had such a great team to take care of everything from the wedding coordination to setting up and braking down. It truly was the BEST choice for us to go this route with all the staff including the bar tenders and our great coordinator for the last couple weeks before and during the wedding worth every penny not to worry. All went as smoothly as possible there always seems to be bumps but Dahneshia kept things rolling along. Thank you All from The Hosmer’s and the Beesley’s

helped bring my stress level down as a bride to a minimum with doing all the things I would have forgotten and making sure things were on task, or fixing things for me. Even when things didn’t go as planned, she kept a smile and went with it and made everything work perfectly! She was super fun to work with, got along with everyone, and always kept us laughing. I got many comments on how awesome she was. We also used them for our bartenders, who were AMAZING and so fun to work with!! 10/10 recommend anyone at Strange Events 🥰 - Caitlin & Justin Kaufmann

, or great ideas. Her connections and recommendations saved us money. Our wedding day was stress free and everything went as planned without one issue. This may sound not real or over the top, but Renee truly thinks of everything and will handle things without asking so you can enjoy your day. I'd give her 6 stars if I could! Lastly, we used SE bartenders for our cocktail hour and reception and multiple guests commented on how great they all were. Hire Renee or her team! You won't be disappointed!

we unfortunately had to postpone. Our day of coordinator Nicole was amazing! I am so type A and she kept me in line and kept me at ease. She even brought us treats for our 3 dogs that were in the wedding! By the end of the rehearsal dinner, I felt like we were old friends. She was the best and I look forward to keeping in touch. Thank you Renee and Nicole for all that you did to make our day wonderful! We could never thank you enough! Nikki & Brendan

d this grand dream (delusion?) of a camp wedding weekend in Maine (where neither of us are from), and Strange Events made it the smoothest, easiest planning process it could've been. They were attentive, communicative, and eager to help; any question we had about a vendor or a location, Renee was quick to offer advice and guidance. She has solid relationships with vendors in the area, which made coordinating a lot of moving parts so easy because not only could she recommend companies, she could get in touch with them if we were having issues. We felt we were in safe hands the entire time and can't express how grateful we were/are because of it. So many people talk about how planning a wedding is so stressful, and we're constantly saying, "Oh really? We're having a blast! Find yourself a Strange Events!!" And their staff!!! Dahneshia, our month-of coordinator, was the absolute BEST. Lovely, funny, engaging, warm, but also incredibly organized and diligent. We felt like we were hanging out with a friend, one who wanted our weekend to be exactly what we imagined. She kept everything calm and fun, and did a great job of allowing us to be in the moment throughout the day. We also hired event staff through Strange Events and they were brilliant. They knew where to be, how to help, and any questions or concerns we had, they addressed with smiles. They made the dreaded clean up go so quickly, and helped handle any of the residual *stuff* so we didn't have to worry in our post-wedding bliss. The bartenders were just as great!! Organized and professional, but also friendly and fit right into the vibe of the night. We can't gush enough about this special group of people. If you're debating whether to get a coordinator, DO IT. If you're debating whether they should be through Strange Events, DO IT. Thank you to Renee, Dahneshia, and co for everything!!!

gined…Melissa is the very best. The servers and bartenders were amazing and worked so hard to make sure everyone was cared for … i especially loved meeting Nicole who is just the sweetest! I am so grateful to have worked with such professional and kind people and have my daughter's wedding be something she’s always wanted. You all are top notch and I'm eternally grateful!

ogether with Renee’s guidance we learned things we would not have thought of! Great work ladies!

perfect for our day- they were so kind and patient with this nervous bride. I am so grateful they were there to make our day come off without a hitch. I highly recommend Strange Events !! Thanks Again Renee and team!! Denise and Darren

onths leading up to the wedding was above and beyond. Renee did have to find a substitute for the day of coordination when our new wedding day conflicted with a previous engagement, but the substitute was fantastic. Thank you again for everything.

mpt – even during peak wedding season – and they consistently exceeded expectations, going far above and beyond everything agreed upon in our contract. Multiple people commented on how calm and relaxed I was on the big day and that was because I knew Strange Events was handling all the details that I would otherwise be worried about, and I completely trusted their decision-making. When it started raining a few hours before our outdoor ceremony and reception, Wendy worked with the other vendors to come up with a plan B which was executed so flawlessly, guests didn’t realize it wasn’t plan A! I strongly recommend Strange Events for brides and families looking for superstar, reliable teammates and peace of mind.

age everything from my rehearsal, vendors, timing and everything in between while trying to also get married and live in that moment. After signing up with Strange Events I was told Renee would be our planner, a few months in she asked me if it would be alright to be in a wedding of her friends that was rescheduled for the same day, of course I said yes and we started working with a new coordinator through the company, Kayla. We had zoom meetings and emails and everything was as great until less than two week before the day I received an email saying I would be having a new day of planner, out of the blue. I tried to give the benefit of the doubt but it was a disaster. She had no idea what she was doing, was nowhere to be found most of the time and when she was she was on her phone. She was not assertive nor organize. Myself and the owner of the venue were doing everything. It was awful. She even asked if I wanted to walk down the aisle…what? We also used Strange Events for bar tending and were reassured they knew what exactly to do for everything we wanted when in fact they did not. They used glass and plastic together-when plastic was supposed to be rolled out late night-they even told me they ran out of glasses (we found 12 slates of unopened glassware the next day!) I was horrified when I saw a guest with a solo cup! I understand things happen and I have tried to give grace but the fact that no one has reached out to me after my email weeks ago shows the lack of professionalism. I am disappointed and really hope this happens to no one else of their big day. Thank god for all my other vendors for saving the day!

erything was flawless as far as we knew. If anything needed "tweaking" the coordinator took care of it without anyone in the bridal party knowing there was an issue. We had already done a lot prior to finding out about the full services of Strange Events. The only thing I would have done differently would have been to hire them from the very beginning to plan the whole thing. Very professional, friendly, and caring.

eading up to our wedding and on the day of! We had to postpone our wedding twice and she was so great at helping me navigate what to do next in this crazy covid world! Not to mention I felt absolutely stress free the day of my wedding thanks to her and her staff! If you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding planner just do it! It will be the best decision you make!

BEST INVESTMENT I MADE FOR MY WEDDING DAY. The whole day I wasn't worried about a single thing because I knew Carrie & Dahneshia were on it and taking care of everything. Renee booked with us back in 2019 and she was the main point person for the planning. She sent us monthly emails checking in with us and following up on everything. This was great because it kept me on track. When it got closer to the day, Carrie became our main point of contact. Not only did they handle day of coordination, but Carrie began reaching out to our vendors a month before the wedding to make sure everyone would be on time, and knew where/what was needed from them. This saved me SO much stress in the month before the wedding. Seriously - I felt like they went above and beyond here as I was not expecting them to do this for me and it was AMAZINGLY helpful. The day of, Carrie and Dahneshia showed up and set up all our tables, and coordinated the entire day for us. All of our vendors commented on how seamless our day ran and how well it was all organized. They seriously made my vision and dream come true. Dahneshia sat with me while I was hiding from my fiancé in the barn and talked to me to help keep me calm before the ceremony. I just felt like both Carrie and Dahneshia were genuinely happy to be part of the day, and not just "working" the event. I'd happily book them for any other event in the future! BFFS for life!

ul, including going above and beyond to help clean up dishes after the night had ended. We highly highly recommend Strange Events for any of your needs and hope we have an opportunity to book them again.

ngs run smoothly too. Thank you so much for making our day unforgettable!

any questions throughout the process. I'd highly recommend Strange Events!
