As a bride, I am grateful to have Susan as our wedding planner. Working with her for a year became such a fun process especially I am one of those Type-A brides. Susan introduced us to amazing vendors and created the dream wedding for me and my husband. Paying attention even to the smallest details, to bustling my difficult heavy gown, running back and forth to help out with my bridal party, and making sure the wedding weekend is stress-free, I couldn’t express how much I appreciate Susan and her team for their help especially with our fur baby. The wedding is such an amazing day and people cannot even stop talking about it. Thank you so much for making our wedding a memorable one! We appreciate you guys so much!!!
Susan was so helpful and knew exactly what I wanted for my wedding!
I was not in favor of hiring a planer when we started the process of planning my daughter's wedding. My wife did a lot of research and found Susan. In the beginning I didn't know what to think. However, as we started to work together, I understood the value that Susan brought to the table. Her guidance and expertise really paid off. The actual day of the wedding couldn't have gone better. Susan's covered ever little detail. Our venue looked amazing because of her. Our guests were so happy. But the ones that were the happiest were the bride and groom. Susan was a ROCK STAR! If you are thinking about hiring a planer, don't hesitate. Hire Susan!!
Any questions?
Susan was terrific. There were a lot of people involved in the decision-making process for our wedding. Probably more than usual. And Susan handled it all with aplomb! The wedding turned out spectacular and she was the reason!!
If you’re looking for a wedding planner that will go above and beyond to create the wedding of your dreams, you can rest assured Susan is your person. Susan has planned multiple events for my family, so we knew we needed her to plan the biggest party so far, my wedding day. She was always so attentive, communicative, and ensured my husband and I had the best day. She put us in contact with all the vendors, coordinated and attended meetings, venue visits, and was along for the ride at every stage. Susan was always honest with us, and truly made the wedding planning a seamless process. I highly recommend her and her company for all wedding and event planning services. You will be so happy to be in her trusted hands!
Susan helped me put together the most beautiful wedding. I wasn’t one of those people who had a clear vision but she took the images and Pinterest boards I provided and brought them to life. She was so extremely helpful with bouncing off ideas and giving her opinions but not pushing anything on me. She was also amazing day of with organizing everything and making sure it went off without a hitch. I would highly recommend!!
It was a pleasure working with Susan. She implemented the bride's vision and created a spectacular ambiance at the venue. From the beginning to the day of we were able to concentrate on other things and on the wedding day Susan was there to make sure everything went as planned and it did. Everyone had a wonderful time and we continue to receive compliments. I highly recommend Susan and her staff.
Susan Jaffe was the best. Her expertise was invaluable. My wedding was spot on and she made it happen. She listens, she prepares and she delivers, always with a smile and saying "no worries". As an out-of-town bride, not being in the city of my wedding, I was extremely nervous planning an event and not being close. Susan was always available for me any time and made our day the most memorable. Our guests are still raving about our special weekend. She is the one to have on your side for your big event.
Susan was an absolute pleasure to work with. From our first meeting to the wedding day she exhibited absolute poise and professionalism. I knew from the start our special day was in good hands. Susan helped to seamlessly navigate us through making our dream wedding come to life. I have to say she truly brought our vision to the next level. We are both busy professionals and she listened and understood where we needed to go with all our decision making. Susan is able to handle all the planning, last minute details and unexpected curve balls without showing any signs of stress or inducing anxiety in those around her…She is a PRO!!!
Susan was wonderful on every level to deal with. She understood our temperament and our vision...she gave us great options and flexibility...but all of it worked together. We asked for a Town & Country wedding and she delivered.
Susan absolutely and utterly exceeded our expectations of what our wedding weekend would be. The entire weekend was planned to perfection, starting with our Friday rehearsal dinner at Rocco’s Tacos in Town Center to our ceremony, reception and after party at The Addison in Boca. No detail was left out. She is a visionary, a dreamer and an executor. The type of talent she has doesn’t come around so often, and that is worth everything for a milestone like this. Thanks to her, our wedding was a dream come true. It’s no wonder her company name is Pieces of Dreams—fits to absolute perfection, her work is just that.
Susan aka Pieces of Dreams turned my wedding dreams into a reality. She was there for us every step of the way from choosing the correct vendors, designing the chuppah of our dreams, and making sure the day itself ran flawlessly. Being the point of contact between our venue and vendors took the stress off of us in the final days and weeks leading up to the wedding. While I’m sad my wedding planning with Susan is over, I cannot wait to plan my next event with her!
Susan was a pleasure to work with and helped create a dream wedding for my daughter and son in law. She is professional, creative, and knowledgable. She knows all the ins and outs of planning and executing a perfect event!
Susan is an absolute dream! My wedding was everything I dreamed of and more! The process was seamless and she made every step of the journey so fun and easy. She brought our exact vision to life while giving me so many beautiful ideas.
I truly could not have survived wedding planning without Susan! I brought her on after securing my venue, when it became very difficult to work with and get a hold of various members of their team. From the moment Susan came into the picture, everything became significantly less stressful and flowed seamlessly. She was not only able to navigate her way through a busy and hectic hotel, but coordinated perfectly with all of my other vendors. She truly understood everything that was important to me and my family and made sure our day was as smooth and stress free as ever. I really could not recommend Susan more! I am so grateful to have had her as part of this process with me.
Susan is great! She took all of the pressure and stress off of planning a wedding. I told her the visions that I had from venue to decor and she delivered!! I whole heartedly recommend her for your special day!!
SUSAN JAFFE IS A UNICORN!!! Susan came in mid-way through our wedding planning, recommended by a colleague, and literally saved our day. (We had to change décor companies 2 months out, and our venue/catering company changed ownership simultaneously—and of course our contract had not been signed yet—and, because of Susan, the transition was ridiculously painless.) The moment Susan’s glow entered our lives, the weight on my shoulders got lighter—primarily, because Susan not only executes her responsibilities to perfection, she goes the extra ten miles and ensures a seamless experience. Susan does her job and she does it exceptionally well. Not to mention her level of professionalism, articulation, organization, focus, care, and logic. A South Florida anomaly. As someone with a Type-A personality (i.e., if-you-want-something-done-do-it-yourself mindset), I have zero concern or doubt Susan will execute our wedding day to perfection. I have no hesitation handing over the reins to this exceptional human being. Only thing I regret is not choosing her sooner. Worth every penny and more. LADIES/BRIDES: DO NOT SKIMP ON YOUR COORDINATOR. You can cut corners / modify literally anything else. Not this.
Susan Jaffe is the epitome of one of my favorite quotes: “Stars don’t shine because they want to be seen. They shine because they are stars.” Susan Jaffe, thank you for being a star.
Response from the Vendor on 10/26/2020
Wow what can I ever say but Thank You!
When a bride can say this in the challenging times we are living in it only reinforces all the dedication I have to my craft and this industry!! Thank you Emmanuelle for reinforcing my heart and your drea...

I had two weddings last year and Susan Jaffe was my event planner which also included rehearsal dinner and brunch. She was beyond amazing. Wonderful taste creativity organizational skills and attention to every detail. Absolutely could not have done it without her. She is also great to work with and was involved in everything from flowers to music all decorations hotels etc. because of her my events were outstanding.
I could not have had such a successful day without Susan by my side. Her close personal connection to my caterer and vendors meant there was nothing I had to stress over for our big day. Her attention to detail meant that no stone would be left unturned when making our wedding as special as it was. And best of all, Susan truly experienced the joy of our day along with us, because she truly is so passionate about creating a dream wedding for her clients.
Susan is amazing wedding planner. She is very detailed oriented
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Susan! Her
professionalism and experience played a most helpful role in areas of pre-wedding planning. As we looked forward to the night of the wedding, we were very confident that the evening would be in excellent hands and run very smoothly. As the evening unfolded, Susan’s presence and oversight ensured a stress-free, memorable wedding for the Bride and Groom, and for all of us to savor for always!
Susan put together the best wedding I could have ever imagined ! My wife and mother in law worked more closely with her but they both ranted and raved throughout the entire process how much they loved her. I know that my wife now has a new best friend ... we are forever grateful for her beautiful work ... thank you Susan !
Absolutely wonderful all around!
Susan Jaffer was very knowledgeable and helped me m
Being a wedding planner and planning my own wedding was even more challenging than when I did my daughters! It also allowed me to have the complete understanding of every side of the planning process.
I am thrilled with the results, it truly was one of the best days of my life!
Absolutely hands down, Susan makes it happen turning the vision into a reality! Working hand in hand with us, she guided us with expertise that was beyond our expectations. Highest recommendation!
shes awesome!
Susan was a pleasure to work with. Couldn't be happier with our decision to chose her as our day of planner. She made sure everything went smoothly the day of and we did not have to worry about a thing. She was very willing to help us with anything prior to the wedding and provided great recommendations for vendors. I would highly suggest using Susan as a wedding planner.
Susan was great to work with. She helped us organize our vendors once we chose them and helped coordinate everything the day of our wedding. We did not have to concern ourselves the day of our wedding because Susan had everything under control. It went seamlessly! She was always available to answer any questions prior to the wedding as well. I would highly recommend Susan!
Susan was amazing to work with and made our dreams turn into reality. Her ability to tailor your vision to your budget is second to none. Most notably, Susan reassured my wife throughout the entire planning process that everything we wanted or needed was taken care of it and made our wedding day seamless. I would highly recommend Susan to assist you in your future wedding planning!
Susan was a pleasure to work with from start to finish! She truly made our vision come to life! When I thought things were impossible, she made them possible! So happy that we were able to work with her.
Susan was an absolute God Send when it came to my wedding ! She guided my Mother and me every step of the way to create the wedding of my dreams ! I not only consider her my "wedding planner", but I also found a forever friend in Susan, and will always cherish her as both a friend and Mother figure <3
Susan is a great wedding planner and a true professional.
Susan made sure our wedding went off without a hitch!! She was great!
With my daughter in Chicago, and myself running a very hectic business in Miami, the prospect of planning and executing the wedding of my daughter's dreams was daunting to say the least.
Fortunately, a dear friend recommended Pieces of Dreams,and the WOTC became a reality. The wedding was incredible from the pre-cocktail hour to the after party, no detail was too small .
It is without reservation that I recommend Susan Jaffee for wedding planner/consultant.
Susan is the absolute best wedding planner for a plethora of reasons, it is not possible to adequately describe how truly amazing she is. In fact, she was more than just a wedding planner, but also a great support and friend throughout. From the first moment we met, her warm and calm demeanor drew me in and she made me feel like the most important and special bride. I found this to be quite wonderful, as I was of course, not her only client. Furthermore, I was married at the peak of wedding season, and that never once stopped Susan from being on top of every single aspect of my wedding at all times. Her level of professionalism is unmatched, and her strong industry relationships and ability to work will all vendors are just a few of the characteristics that really set her apart. From the beginning of the planning to the end, Susan was by my side, and planning became effortless. We really felt like a team, and that was something that made the process so enjoyable. Susan helped with every single aspect of the planning process without question. While each bride is different, and has different needs, Susan catered directly to mine and was as involved as I wanted and needed her to be. She understands the process fully, and that each bride and couple is unique, which is something that is hard to find and just one of the qualities that makes her so great at what she does.
My wedding was absolutely flawless from beginning to end, and that is only because of Susan. She took my visions/ideas and not only made them a reality, but made them even more perfect than I could have ever imagined. Her meticulous planning exceeded all expectations and her level of perfection was evident throughout. She is incredibly organized, which is something that is of utmost importance not only throughout the planning process, but also for the actual event itself. In sum, I was sad that I would no longer be able to work with Susan on a constant basis, and I think that says the most.
Hiring Susan was the best decision I made!! I live in NY and having my wedding in Florida and I couldn't have done it without her!!I trust her opinion on everything and was never worried that something wouldn't get done. She really made the wedding planning process enjoyable!!
I highly recommend Susan as a wedding planner. I was planning my wedding from out of state and Susan was able to help make the planning process as stress free as possible. She was very focused on what my husband and I wanted as the bride and groom while also considering our families wishes. She really wants what is best for the day and is honest about what will work well or not. She also has a lot of connections in the area which is awesome. She worked well with the other vendors in order to execute the day seamlessly. It really was the BEST DAY EVER :)
Susan and her team exceeded all of my expectations for my wedding! It was a pleasure to work with her and I look back at my planning and day of experience with so much love and joy. My wedding was a dream come true thanks to her and her team!
Susan and her crew were there every step of the way during the planning process of my daughters wedding. She even had to come In midway and made us ALL feel so comfortable and confident. During any moments of true nervousness - Susan was the calming presence. I'd highly recommend Susan and Pieces of Dreams for your upcoming wedding or any special event you may be planning.
Susan was so well prepared and really took initiative with every situation. Although I wasn't around for most of the planning being sister of the bride, during rehearsals, prior to ceremony, ceremony, and party she was constantly on the watch to make sure everything was moving smoothly. I remember needing bobby pins and tape for my dress and she literally had a baggie full of equipment to solve problems! She is honestly so incredible.
Susan Jaffe was the wedding planner for my daughter
8 years ago. Since then, I have referred Susan to all my friends as their own daughters were engaged.
There have been one amazing wedding after another; thanks to the creative vision of Susan .

Susan was so much fun to work with! Planning a wedding can be very stressful and she had everything under control and in the end everything was perfect. Every vendor that she recommended was also amazing to work with. I wish I could go back in time and do it all over again. I recommend Susan 100% and will use her again for my next party!
Susan made our lives so much easier by making sure everything got done. The wedding literally got flipped back outside an hour before the event. She made it possible for us to enjoy the day. And her job wasn't over when the event ended. She had to deal with a vendor who didn't live up to their reputation the day of, and she had them redo our bouquets at the last minute. That is what you need a wedding planner for. She makes sure everyone does their job.
Since my new wife considered herself the "anti-bride" I jokingly became the "bride." I dealt with Susan about basically every aspect of the wedding. She was very accommodating b/c I'm the kind of guy who doesn't take NO for an answer and occasionally wants info/has questions at all hours of the day... Susan might have dealt with my personality better than my wife. She truly made ever aspect of our wedding day perfect and kept the "anti-bride" happy as well.
Words cannot express how grateful I am to have found Susan. She made planning our destination wedding effortless. Living in NYC and planning a destination wedding in Miami (with a full time job and other responsibilities) became a bit overwhelming. Susan’s deep relationships with top vendors allowed my husband and I to have great choices for our special day. She goes above and beyond for her clients and worked around our schedules to maximize our visits. She also stepped in and took a lot off of our plate including finding us the perfect non-traditional band and local rabbi when we had last minute changes. In addition to the key logistical and organizational planning aspects, she was great to bounce ideas off of including developing unique design options for our décor…creating a modern, romantic and chic vibe. We wouldn’t have been able to have such a special day and dream wedding without her and her team!
Susan was amazing to work with! She is well-organized, knowledgeable, and detail oriented. I could never have coordinated all the details involved in planning and executing my daughter and son-in-law's wedding without her support, advice, and guidance. Susan was always responsive, accessible, and available to discuss my concerns and all aspects of the wedding. She was very flexible and more than willing to work around my daughter's very hectic work schedule. Susan's patience, insight, and creativity were instrumental in helping to create a beautiful, personalized, and unique wedding experience for the bride and groom that made their wedding truly unforgetable!! My guests raved about how beautiful the room looked and how amazing the wedding was! Susan is a true professional, passionate about her work, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I would recommend her highly!!
Susan took my dreams and made them a reality. She has exquisite taste and is so patient when it comes to making decisions! She makes you feel at ease with the wedding planning process and is just so much fun to be around! I would recommend Susan a million times over again!
Our daughter and her fiancé decided to have their wedding celebration abroad where they live. Our bride came into town for just one week, in which we had only a few days to find her “dream wedding gown” and to focus on other wedding details. Susan Jaffe said, OK – no problem, let’s go! With her expertise, insight to the bride’s taste, and minding our budget, Susan guided us to a few select bridal salons, where we were treated like royalty due to Susan’s excellent reputation and rapport with her vendors. One day of shopping, 3 fittings later, our daughter was beyond happy and ready to be a beautiful bride! The BEST part was the ease and pleasure of working with Susan, it was a Piece of Cake!
My fiance and I planned a wedding in St Barths in four months time. I cannot explain what a feat this was. Susan accomplished it in the blink of an eye. As the island has only limited choices for decor everything had to be shipped from Miami....EVERYTHING.
Susan handled every detail like the professional that she is. She listened to my vision and made it a reality. No detail was overlooked even when I requested things at the very last hour. She took care of everything. Susan was there for me at every turn, whether it was a veil emergency, family drama, friends coordinating flights, or even painting my nails (she did).
I had a fairy tale wedding and I could not have done it without the support and tireless work of Susan and Pieces of Dreams Weddings and Events.
When I look back at our wedding photos, it takes me back to the most amazing night of my life. Our wedding planner, Susan Jaffe did such an exceptional job in orchestrating our event that months later - our friends are still talking about it! I never realized how important all the little details are, even something as trivial as having the right silverware really does make all the difference in the end. Our wedding was not only picture perfect but it was FUN!
Susan gave me a wonderful magical wedding. Recommend.
Susan helped me search high and low for the perfect wedding venue. I chose a museum as my venue, which was very strict and had many guidelines to follow. Susan made sure that all of the rules were met and was very willing to work with some vendors she had never worked with before. She was able to create my vision while always making sure we were still in budget. Susan is very calming and easy to work with.
I had a very special time planning my wedding with Susan Jaffe as she not only was my planner but she is my mother. I think my review is still valid as Susan did an amazing job at transitioning from mother to planner when needed. From the very first meeting my husband and I knew we were going to be able to pull of the dream wedding we wanted. We both shared with Susan every detail of what we had envisioned our wedding to be from the beautiful escort tree greeting our guests to the electric violinist surprise performance pumping up the party. As cliché as it sounds, the entire night was magical and I really feel that it isn't possible to accomplish what we did without a wedding planner. I now more then ever understand how hard my mom works to make sure each and every one of her brides are as happy as I was on my wedding day.
I highly recommend Susan to any bride who wants to enjoy every minute of her wedding day! Susan brought my vision for my wedding to life and took care of all the day of details so I could be in the moment to celebrate with my husband and our friends and family. Couldn't have asked for more!
We found Susan a terrific member of our wedding team. She knew the ins and outs of the hotel, had a great relationship with the florist, found some special touches for the ballroom tables and best of all kept on eagle eye on every detail/ activity the day of the wedding. She and her team helped us to create a special and beautiful wedding. She never runs out of energy or ideas.
The party was beyond my expectations. Susan was a pleasure to work with. Our guests are still talking about the party. It was absolutely beautiful. I would not have a party without Susan planning it.
Susan Jaffe and her team helped make my wedding the most beautiful and unforgettable day of my life. They made the whole process easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend Susan and her team to plan your next event/wedding! Susan is amazing and has extraordinary taste! Thank you again for making my a dream!

As Father of the Bride, I was resigned to the fact that I would be on the sidelines for much of the planning and preparation as my wife, daughter and son-in-law were in constant communication. Susan, from the very beginning, always included me in everything and ensured that I was part of the decision making (even though I sometimes didnt have a clue or sometimes, even a say,) as much as possible. It was extremely impressive to see that every time we needed to visit and/or negotiate with a vendor, Susan was received warmly, with open arms and with the utmost of respect. It was a pleasure going through the process!
My daughter and son-in-law's wedding was amazing! It was like a fairytale....but a personlized fairytale. At our very first meeting with Susan, you could see that Susan immediately understood the wishes and desires of the bride and groom. And, as time passed, she applied her visions and impeccable taste and creativity to each and every detail of our wedding weekend - from the out-of towners/rehearsal dinner on Friday night, the "main event" on Saturday night and the delicious brunch on Sunday morning.
There are no words to express what an exceptional job she did!
I highly recommend Susan. She is very creative and came up with amazing finishing touches for my wedding I had not considered. She did a great job negotiating with vendors. She was there for me 100% on my wedding day making sure I had everything I needed.
When you work with Susan Jaffe of Pieces of Dreams Weddings and Events, you are working with a true professional. Susan is very creative and has great vision. She has helped us stay on point. I am looking forward to enjoying my daughters wedding!
The wedding was massive, no way we could have pulled it off with pieces of dreams. Susan is the best, took care of every detail down to the last t. Does everything how you want it and provides explanations for everything she may think should be done differently. Susan took away every worry from the planning and execution of the event and my wife and i could not have been happier. MUST USE!
Susan and her assistant did an excellent job helping us plan our wedding and also made sure every thing went according to plan the day of the event.
I would highly recommend her.
Susan Jaffee helped my wedding dream turn to a realty. She was there for me from the moment I arrived at the church until the end of my reception. She made sure all of the details were in place, all of my vendors were on target and she even placed some lip gloss on my lips before I entered the reception! Susan and her staff were there to help my guests with anything they needed. There were some things that I overlooked (due to complete stress and chaos before the wedding) and she was there to fill in the blanks, so it did not feel empty. If it wasn't for Susan, my wedding would not have been the talk of my famly and friends! At all of my friends weddings, people are still comparing my wedding with theirs!
I would recomend every bride to have Susan as their wedding planner! I invested so much money to the actual wedding, that I was so happy to have an experienced and knoweledgable wedidng planner there to make sure everything was actually executed correctly! I am so happy I did not leave everything to chance the day of.
Susan is the best wedding planner, and knew exactly what to do the day of my wedding based on her knoweldge, experience and professionalism!
Thank you Susan, for making my dream come true!!!
Susan's planning of my event left me speechless. From beginning to end, small detail to large detail, I was amazed at the level of professionalism, style and class that was the "Pieces of Dreams" touch. Working with all of our vendors was a joy as opposed to a hassle, and every to do was fun in its own special way. Ashley was an angel and made the process a breeze, which not many brides can say. My groom and I are forever grateful, and we will see you for baby time!
For eighteen months, Susan Jaffe guided us through the process of making our daughter's wedding. She did not leave any stone unturned. From choosing the venues for the "rehearsal" dinner, wedding ceremony and reception, and Sunday brunch, her professionalism and creativity reigned throughout. Susan was always sensitive to the desires and needs ot the bride and groom...their tastes and preferences, to ensure that it was THEIR dream wedding. Welcome baskets, shuttle bus, fabulous decor, incredible music...are just a few things which contributed to an unforgettable weekend. Ashley, Susan's wonderful assistant, Hope and Carey who were present to ensure the events' success (and they did) are all fabulous! We couldn't ever thank Susan and her staff enough!!!
We knew a planner would be essential since we live out of town. We had really high hopes since we wanted to wow guests that would be traveling long distances for a destination wedding. Her online gallery of previous event pictures is amazing and is what initially piqued my interest. I will admit that I had doubts about her ability to maintain that quality on our budget (higher than what Google says is the national average, but lower than her average), but she delivers!
Susan was excellent to work with and made our wedding significantly more beautiful and fun than what we had envisioned ourselves! Her assistant, Ashley, is also wonderful to work with. Their response time is great, they have a fabulous list of contacts, and they just will make your wedding absolutely incredible. One of the best things about her is that if you ask for her opinion, she will give you an honest one. If you still want to do it your way, she will back off. My advice is to go with whatever she suggests 99% of the time. The 1% is for you since it's your wedding. I will admit that the few things I did on my own, I regret. *le sigh*, should've asked her for help with those things!
Anyway, if you have the money, going with her is a NO BRAINER. If you don't, save up until you do and have her plan your wedding. It is worth every penny. You will absolutely not be disappointed, she is amazing.
Choosing Susan to help with our wedding is one of the best decisions I ahve made in my life (the only other one I can think of was choosing the bride). Susan and her associates especially Ashley, at Pieces of Dreams were phenomenal to work with, they just remove stress out of the equation. Everything decision that we made about the big day was just worked out great. It was very easy and fun communicating, exchanging ideas, and planning the whole thing with Susan. She is down to earth, experienced, vibrant and passionate about her job. This made the wedding and the whole line up of activities leading up to it the best experience of my life. Thanks Susan, you the best :)
From the moment we met Susan, we knew that we had met our perfect wedding planner. My wife and I are very much perfectionists and had very high expectations for her to meet. She took the stress out of the planning process. She was extremely responsive at all hours of the day and night to our numerous texts, emails, and phone calls. Not only was she extremely responsive, but she always did it with a huge smile on her face. Susan has to be one of the most sincere people we have ever worked with. She genuinely cared about making us happy and bringing all of our visions to life. No matter what our budget was with each vendor, she worked extremely hard to make sure our money went as far as possible and never made us feel like we need to be spending more. Thanks to Susan we had our dream wedding and were able to enjoy all of it stress free. If we had to do it all again, there would be absolutely no hesitation that we would hire Susan again and for any future event planning, she will be sure to get our business.
Susan Jaffe is a first class, extraordinary wedding planner. Her taste is impeccable and her ideas are limitless. She planned a wedding for my daughter at the Eden Roc Hotel in Miami Beach in May 2012 which was above and beyond our expectations. She understood from the start what my daughter's vision was and added her own excellent input. Susan is professional, well organized, calming, and was involved every step of the way by our sides. She made the hectic process of wedding planning enjoyable. Not only was the wedding a tremendous success but I now have a lifelong friend. I very highly recommend her for all of your party planning needs. Susan is a special person and she stands out significantly in this profession.
Susan has made my whole wedding planning experience more enjoyable than I could have ever imagined and entirely stress free. She has a very creative eye and really knows how to put things together the right way. She has always been honest and would go above and beyond to give any bride the wedding of her dreams. I couldn’t have done it without her. Susan strives for perfection and after working with her for the past year, it’s clear to me that it’s because the only thing she cares about is making her brides happy. I knew the moment I met her that she was the right wedding planner for me. She was calm, very fair and her work just shows what an amazing and beautiful wedding she is capable of producing. She is the BEST! I highly recommend her and I’m so thankful for everything she has done to make my dream wedding become a reality!! Susan will happily do anything anyone asks to make anyone’s special day the best that I can possibly be!! She is AMAZING!
Planning a wedding so overwhelming and as a bride it is hard to trust anyone with your special day.
Susan is the best!! You can trust her to make decisions....she is able to hear what you want and make it into reality.
My wedding was amazing and I couldn't have done it without Susan.
Susan Jaffe was an amazing wedding planner / event planner! I loved working with her and so did my husband! She helped make everything easy and fun! She had great ideas for flowers, invitations, cake, band, makeup, photographer, on and on! She is not only very skilled at what she does, but she is sweet and attentive and loving! She is now my forever friend! I didn't have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding and my wedding was perfect!
Susan went over and beyond anything she promised & became like family to us. We knew it was a good sign that we shared the same last name and boy were we right on the money. She is very organized and is a class act all the way. Our wedding went off without a hitch and stress free because she took care of everything for us. Even when the wedding was over she still handled some issues that occurred at our venue and made sure we were able to enjoy this time in our life without letting any problems upset us.
This is our second party with Susan. With only one week to go before my daughters wedding, I find myself relaxed and looking forward to her big day. Everyone wonders how I can be so relaxed. I tell them, hire the best and leave the details to someone who truly knows their business. With her many years of experience she has established excellent relationships with the other professionals in her field. She is highly respected among the people she deals with; musicians, decorators, photographers. Wherever we go, I'm told how lucky I am to have her planning our event. Susan has such an eye for perfection that I can honestly say "I have no worries"!
Susan was amazing!!! We had amazing chemistry from the beginning, she was able to interpret what I wanted and worked miracles to stick to my budget and making my dream come true (without excluding anything). I love her!!! and plan to use her in future events. The day of the event I had no worries because she took care of everything. That is priceless when it comes to celebrating your big day.
I am in the midst of planning my fifth event with Susan. That says it all! The amazing thing about Susan is that she takes the time to listen and is able to create a design that is unique and fulfills our desires. If you look at her website you will see the diversity in her design-nothing cookie cutter! We are now planning our second wedding with her. She has taken the time to get to know my daughter and future son in law as a couple and has been so patient through this process. She keeps us calm and focused and within our budget. We are just 3 months away from the wedding and I know that she will make sure everything goes smoothly, just as she has done for us in all previous celebrations.
The wedding Susan created for me went beyond my wildest wedding dreams! She did more than just create an aesthetically beautiful wedding, she gave me a warm, intimate, and meaningful event that I will remember and be indebted to her for the rest of my life! She went way way way above and beyond her call of duty and planned my wedding with the love and care as if I were her own daughter walking down the aisle. I would have been LOST during the months of planning if it weren't for Susan and I question the sanity of any bride who doesnt have a Susan, she is AMAZING. The rating limit of five stars is not enough for Susan, she deserves a galaxy of stars in my book!!!
Susan Jaffe is the penultimate wedding planner extraordinaire!! She puts her heart and soul into every aspect of the wedding planning ,no matter how small a detail.Handing over the reins to Susan and her team was an easy decision for us all.My son and daughter in laws wedding, turned out to be over and above all our expectations. Susan worked tirelessly and very professionally to ensure this was a worry free event for us all.
The complements we received from the guests,is a testament to the brilliance of Susan. We could not have pulled off this "Dream" wedding without Susan Jaffe and her Pieces Of Dreams.
Susan knows her stuff. She coordinated my entire bat mitzvah extravaganza 15 years ago, and now I can say she is my wedding planner. Her edge against the rest is her experience, her great sense of style & vision, as well as her determination to get it done RIGHT! She literally has bent over backwards to make the day flawless for the couple & wedding guests. Just the other day, she went with me to look at a potential band, and didn't even mention that she was feeling under the weather-- b/c she sticks to her word and didn't want to disappoint.
If you are questioning whether an event planner is a necessity, I can guarantee you that Susan's creativity, familiarity with local vendors, and hustle is well worth the cost.
Amazing wedding planner! Made my vision and dream come true.
Hands down Susan is the best planner! She is patient, extremely organized, and listened to exactly what I wanted as a bride. She even understood my vision better then I did myself. The day of the wedding is when Susan shines even more. With all the hundreds of things that go into the planning and all the behind the scene chaos, I never one time felt frustrated or anxious- Susan handled it all! She is a pleasure to work with and really became part of our family during the process. Thank you again Susan for making our wedding day the most perfect day we could have imagined!
From our first meeting with Susan, I knew my daughter's special day would be the most wonderful and memorable.
Susan's knowledge of event planning, her wonderful creative ideas and overall enthusiam is trully a gift.
Susan arranged everything from venue, decor, gifts, music, photography etc.
Susan was with us from beginning to end. Susan made sure everything was 100% to her liking and standards. The entire day was wonderful. Myself and my daughter were pampered the entire day. We were told to enjoy and we did. Everything was beautiful, meaningful and alot of fun. Most importantly, the Bride and Groom had the best time. Our guests were in awe of the evening.
We were very lucky to have had Susan plan this wonderful event for us. I highly recommend Susan Jaffe's Pieces of Dreams to make your dreams come true. Becky T
