Tara Nicole Weddings and Events

aig unfortunately had jungle rain on their wedding day unexpectedly. The outdoor reception had already been setup on the veranda at Laurel Hall. As the rain began, her entire team quickly relocated the reception (chairs, tables, linens, decor, etc) indoors for Plan B. The bride and groom were not stressed because they knew Tara had it all under control. >>> https://old.nathanieledmunds.com/amy-craig-wedding-photography/ When Tara met with Leslie and Jeremy on their initial wedding planning meeting, they indicated they wanted a wedding in a Tuscan garden but...did not want to worry at all Indiana weather. Tara and her team created the most magnificent and enchanted garden inside the Indiana Roof Ballroom >>> https://old.nathanieledmunds.com/leslie-jeremy-wedding/ Aradhana and Michael had a stunning Indian wedding that ran between The Conrad and Indianapolis Artsgarden. As with most Indian weddings, there is a lot of activities and events that coincide. Tara and her team made it all seamlessly work. >>> https://old.nathanieledmunds.com/aradhana-michael-wedding/

very detail and invited some of the challenges I threw at her with colors and invitations and new vendors etc. She was always real and pulled us back down to Earth when we needed some grounding. She was great to work with our busy schedules and took so much of the weight off us and kept us focused on what needed done when. I couldn't have asked for a better planner!

by far the best decision we made in our wedding planning! We had the big things worked out when we decided to hire a coordinator, but having someone to help handle all the little things was invaluable. I interviewed several and knew right away that Tara was the person for us. She was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and SO easy to work with. We initially only hired her for day-of coordination but eventually upgraded to design because she had so many wonderful ideas, and boy did she nail it! Her eye for design, her connections to vendors and knowledge of the industry, and her willingness to pursue all options brought together a design that was beautiful, affordable, and EXACTLY what we had in mind. The wedding weekend went off without a hitch thanks to her detailed planning and ability to discreetly handle any issues. The morning of our rehearsal dinner, we woke up to find our flower center pieces wilted and dying. With a packed day ahead we knew we wouldn’t have time to fix them, but Tara stepped in and put together gorgeous new center pieces so quickly and masterfully, they honestly looked better than the originals! There were probably other things that came up that she handled and we still don’t even know about it! If you are on the fence about a coordinator (or if you know you want one), do yourself a favor and hire Tara. She will exceed all of your expectations!

of. I work full time, and did not have family support nearby, and so when I reached out to Tara, it was a complete Godsend that she was available to meet with me and see if she could help. She is an excellent listener, extremely creative, is honest/direct, solution and outcome oriented, and immediately formed a trusting relationship with me that allowed me to confidently delegate the remaining "final vendor meetings" and last minute details to her leadership, that ultimately brought our wedding together. She worked with me on a customized package to meet my needs in that last month, that was worth not only every dollar, but also gave me peace and allowed me and my fiance to be happy and healthy leading up to our big day. I am "type-A" and typically like to be in control of a situation, but I 100% trusted Tara to do that all for me. On the day of, she knew how to handle my very large Middle Eastern family, and be my voice and advocate on that day. She even brought me Starbucks - somehow remembering my order! On the day of my wedding, she was essentially my fairy Godmother, my personal assistant, my best friend, my maid of honor, personal love note deliverer to my husband-to-be, my fire extinguisher, my therapist, and most importantly an amazing event planner and coordinator. I am truly so lucky to have had her as my wedding lifesaver and day-of-coordinator and we will always be grateful to her for giving us a day that we can remember and one that went on without a glitch! Thank you so much, Tara!

walked us through events as we got closer to the day and fixed several problems that had risen.... replacing hair and make up artist that we could count on at the crack of dawn, a florist that we never would have found without her knowledge that made the events so gorgeous. She also worked out some complications with other vendors and made everything run smoothly.

00-person guestlist. All the while, the two of us were living in DC, Nikhil’s parents were in Georgia, and Joie’s parents lived in Indiana. Tara took the time to get to know us, our parents, and our working styles. In doing so, she came to understand our dreams for the day and how to best make the wedding weekend a success. In addition to working with us, Tara managed a large team of other vendors, from designers and musicians to food trucks and caterers. Our wedding would not have been as organized and polished without Tara’s efforts. In fact, some of our engaged guests have already asked for her contact information! Tara became more than a wedding planner, she became a friendly friend. Thank you, Tara, for everything that you have done! You were the perfect addition to our 6-person wedding team. We loved our wedding, and would be glad to go through the entire planning process again as long as we still got to work with you!

dibly detail-orientated, loves her brides passionately, and creates flawless set ups better than any Pinterest dream!!!

ould work with my schedule having meetings to accommodate my work schedule and the time difference. In addition, I was only able to come home during Christmas break and two times during the summer for long weekends. She did an amazing job helping me narrow down vendors, setting up meeting with the vendors and helping me with reviewing and finalizing the contracts. I arrived Thursday for my Saturday wedding. Tara and her team did an amazing setting up for the wedding on Friday (I was able to go play golf with my brother :) ).The wedding day went very smoothly, Tara and her team made the day stress free from set up to clean up. I would highly recommend Tara for as your wedding planner especially for out of town brides. She was very friendly, professional, and always listened to my ideas and helped me implement them to make my day unique and special.

nd helped to problem-solve untimely glitches along the way. It was rewarding to have an experienced professional on our side who knew how to navigate through the wedding industry. During times of need, I could call either Allie or Tara for sound advice. Allie attended many meetings pertaining to our wedding and offered guidance during our rehearsal. Additionally, the team delivered a stress-free bridal kit to our home prior to the wedding week… which my husband could appreciate! Tara has plethora of reception items that are exclusive to her clients. I borrowed candelabras as well as other materials to pinpoint the theme of my wedding during venue meetings. Ultimately, both planners have the heart to serve others! We appreciated their efforts in making our day memorable!

ng with Tara about six months before the big weekend and that’s when she took over all vendor coordination, planning, timelines, etc. Her detailed nature and affectionate attitude allowed for successful coordination with all my vendors. This was extremely helpful as I had really crazy work hours during this time. When it came to the weekend of, Tara and her team were able to successfully manage all the moving pieces of the wedding flawlessly. From the minute we arrived at the hotel, I wasn’t worried about a thing because I knew Tara was taking care of it. If things did go wrong, I had no idea because she has a natural talent at what she does. Most importantly, having Tara and her team allowed my mom and sister to enjoy themselves fully without having to worry about any of logistics of the weekend. Tara and her team have my highest recommendation as they were truly invaluable to me during the most important time in my life!

s a planner. Tara helped us for the last few months before the wedding and was invaluable. She organized weekly to do's that we both had to accomplish, and she truly made the decision making process very simple for us. She was always willing to meet or talk on the phone or communicate via email and was very quick to respond (despite having a newborn!). She served as a friend we could vent to and as a professional who handled all communication with our vendors. When our DJ fell through at the last minute, she immediately started gathering names and contacts for us and helped us work through DJ contracts 2 weeks before our wedding! Our families were SO IMPRESSED with her willingness to learn the Indian culture and help out whenever she could. We received so many compliments from our guests about how smooth the wedding day was and how organized everything was for them. She is patient, professional, and a natural at her job. I would definitely recommend Tara and her team to any bride!

as one of the best decisions we made! I feel the company of our family and friends on the wedding day was the best part of the event. Tara's services allowed us to enjoy the day to it's fullest. During the month before the wedding, everything needed to be done all at once (despite our hard work before hand!). Tara was responsive, professional, and open to taking on all tasks - big and small - that we sent her way. Just when we wondered if we were overloading her, she asked if there was anything else she could do to help. The behind-the-scenes work that Tara and her staff did on the day of the wedding was so valuable. We didn't have to worry about the details -- they were thought out beforehand, included in the day's timeline, and all taken care of. All we had to do that day was show up - literally! I recommend Tara Nicole Weddings without hesitation for a flawless event.

ange, she responded to my texts and emails at all hours. Thank you for helping make our day so special! You came highly recommended and we echo those sentiments whole heartedly!

big question was “are you sure you want to deal with my big, fat, crazy Indian wedding?!” Throughout the planning process, Tara was a huge help… serving as an organizer, confidant (daily venting sessions!), and chauffer (arranging and driving me around to back-to-back vendor meetings since I lived out of town). She became a 2nd daughter to my mom since they spent so much time together from addressing invitations to putting together the seating chart. Then came the wedding week, my Sangeet venue flooded and a bus carrying guests broke down, but she made sure the event still went on without a hitch. Tara made sure out entire weekend was as seamless and stress-free as possible. To future brides… Tara is amazing, went above and beyond the call of duty, and even dressed the part ;)

ent when we started discussing my vision. When I received a proposal from her and saw how she had captured my vision so perfectly, I knew she was the right wedding planner for me. Tara and I stayed in very close contact from day 1 and she was a blessing to me the entire time. We met in person 1-2 times a month and she was always available through phone and/or text and she responded to my emails very promptly. My husband and I both have very busy schedules and Tara did a fantastic job being flexible with us and she saved us so much time and stress by booking consultations and meetings with some wonderful vendors. In the last few months of my planning process, I don’t know what I would have done without her. She immediately took care of any issues we had, created timelines, she was constantly emailing me with updates and asking if I needed anything, she coordinated with the vendors, and she took care of all the little details that I was completely clueless about. She also did a wonderful job running our rehearsal. And on top of all that, she made my reception beautiful; my table designs were absolutely gorgeous thanks to her talents. And most importantly, I did not have to stress on my wedding day because I knew I was in good hands!

really calm the entire time, which really helped with my stress. Most importantly, she met all my requirements - I needed her to keep me on track, so she sent me reminder to do lists. I needed her to be firm with my wedding party and flaky photographer, so she made sure that everybody knew exactly where and when they had to do stuff. Best part - she kept my mother in law on track too. Worth every penny and would recommend to everyone I know.

decide to hire her. I am very organized and had been dreaming up my wedding for quite some time. After talking to her, I couldn't resist! She is incredibly easy to work with. She has such an easy personality to mesh with. She made it so easy to relax and enjoy our day. I had an elaborate vision and she helped me exceed my expectations on that beautiful vision. I never had a reason to stress because the entire day and the months before she was able to say, "Oh don't worry, I already have it taken care of." From sending in our marriage license, to filling up 500 vases with water for flowers, to organizing all of my vendors, making timelines for the months/weeks before and the day of, coordinating 470 guests... Tara and her staff just did it all! I can confidently say I wouldn't change anything about my day. Everything went just as planned! I will definitely continue to recommend Tara Nicole Weddings and Events to all of my friends and family! Such an awesome experience!

on. Tara Nicole Weddings provided value in ways that I couldn't have even imagined when we started working with them. The weeks leading up to the wedding Tara handled all of our vendor meetings and finalized a timeline that made the day flow flawlessly. It was amazing to have her with us on our wedding day and I highly recommend Tara Nicole Weddings and Events for any bride's special day.

king with vendors, brainstorming and assisting with all aspects of wedding planning. She was a huge help for me since I was planning my wedding from out of town. She met with the vendors live when I wasn't able to and did various site visits. Most importantly, the rehearsal dinner and wedding went off without a hitch. Tara had everything under control and was always there if I needed anything. I would highly recommend Tara Nicole Weddings and Events! You will not be disappointed.

but Tara went above and beyond helping us with everything from flower budget to design ideas. If you are thinking about hiring a planner or coordinator, I highly recommend Tara Nicole Weddings! She really made the day stress free and left us with nothing to worry about except having a good time.

y. When they ask me what part of my wedding was most worth the money, I instantly answer "my wedding planner. " Tara was so awesome and easy to work with. She was always going above and beyond. My wedding was at Purdue University in West Lafayette (at least an hour drive from Tara's home) and Tara was always scheduling appointments with my other vendors to meet and discuss my day. This was something I didn't expect of her but something I GREATLY appreciated. I hired Tara 6months prior to my wedding. I had all the big stuff done but was having trouble with the small details. I am a very visual person...Tara understood that and she set up multiple different table linen and decor options in her own home with flowers, candles, chairs, etc. This was soooooo helpful. Tara also does a good job keeping you within your budget, which was my husbands number one requirement :) I will continue to recommend Tara Nicole Weddings and Events :)

I will definitely be using her services for my own wedding! You can tell she puts her heart into the planning from day one and is very detailed and organized.

antastic ideas and she will get the job done! My hat goes off to her for her fine talent and initiative.

ing would not have been nearly as amazing with her incredible attention to detail. She even took care of the little things that many brides forget about, like getting food for the bridal party. I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Tara and I would strongly recommend her to any bride, no matter how much help you think you do or don't need. Having someone that is reliable and experienced was truly invaluable. Plus, her joyful and spunky personality makes her a delight to work with!

r more. Tara was my right (and left) hand lady the whole day of my rehearsal and wedding. She was there every step of the way coordinating vendors, my wedding party, and even guests at our wedding. She even came to all the sites we took pictures at and help direct and keep us on time and looking good! She took almost 100% of the stress out of my day by taking care of things that hadn't even crossed my mind. Most I didn't even know about until later after everything had gone perfectly because she had taken handled it without me even knowing. Everyone told me to be prepared for something to go wrong because it always does but absolutely everything went perfectly without a single issue the whole day. She was incredibly thorough down to having chalk on hand to hide the grass stains in my dress from taking photos beforehand (who thinks of that?!?!). By the end of the day all of my bridesmaids, most of who were recently engaged, were requesting her for their own weddings! I can't say enough wonderful things about Tara Nicole Weddings and how amazing, personal, and stress-free she made my day!

planned weddings ever. The details were perfect, even when the weather was uncooperative. The host site (Hawthorns) did an amazing job of making sure the wedding guests did not feel any effects of the last minute planning changes from this. Tara Nicole did a fantastic plan and every detail could not have been done better.
