Nicki is beyond amazing. I’m so glad our venue required to have a wedding planner because she saved my life from having to contact all the vendors and create a timeline. She is organized, efficient, and flexible. We had a couple of issues during the wedding day and Nicki just took care of them so I didn’t have to worry. She is seriously the best! If you are looking for a talented planner, I highly recommend Nicki! More...

Wedding Planning

This is long over due but Nicki and her team deserves this review.

Let me start off by saying Thank you Nicki!! If you think you don't need an event coordinator, talk to Nicki and she will put you in your place in a nice way haha! If you want someone who listens and executes the way how you want your big day to be and to be stressed free leave it up to Nicki and her team to take care of you. My wife and I appreciates Nicki's upfront answers and honesty when it came down to specific questions and ideas we had for our wedding. She is professional, outgoing, efficient and overall just great vibes to work with. She is there when you needed her to clarify any questions throughout your planning. Leading up to the day of my wife and I's wedding, Nicki and her team seemed like they weren't even there because of how smooth of every transition we went through for the day and in a blink of an eye it was all over. If you're looking for an event coordinator reach out to Nicki:) More...

I had a great experience at my wedding. I got to enjoy every minute of it and really be present. I wasn’t stressed and that was my goal from the very beginning. Nicki made me feel at ease with the remaining planning and execution. She was on top of everything. The rehearsal went well and I appreciated how up front she was with everyone so that it was clear what was expected on the day of. The reception was so beautiful and she executed everything that I had in mind. Everyone was complimenting me on how beautiful it all was. Lauren was amazing, too. She was so friendly and I am so glad they were there to help everything run so smoothly. More...

Let me start off by saying, I didn’t think I needed a wedding coordinator. It was a backyard wedding, and I “could handle it. “ So, I was wrong. I didn’t realize all the little details of a not so simple backyard wedding until my beautiful angels arrived to help me, and plan the most amazing wedding I could have ever wanted. Nicki was amazing, knowledgeable and very detail oriented. She helped me plan my wedding down to the smallest of details. She’s honest, high energy, encouraging, and answered every question I threw at her right away. I couldn’t thank her enough for her help. She unfortunately missed the best wedding of October 2022, but I got to meet two more amazing people, Lauran and Mac. I so loved them. They came to the house and jumped right in. Helping everywhere they could to get this wedding going. They where super hero’s moving at the speed of light. I don’t know how they did it, but things fell into place, and the wedding seemed to move flawless. I am so appreciative and thankful for all of them. I can’t thank them enough! They have a great talent for what they do and I couldn’t express more on how every bride needs them. ❤️ More...

Nicki is AMAZING! Absolutely fabulous! She is efficient and made my wedding so special. We had a very tight timeframe at our venue and had lots of required activities to accomplish. Without Nicki I don't think we would have been able to do everything we wanted.

Thank you Nicki and your crew for helping us run our day!

We are mostly a DIY couple & had many of the details for our big day sorted out & arranged. Nicki & her team ensured we kept to a timeline, helped us fill in any holes in our planning & added special attention to detail in so many areas. I can say our day went perfectly & it was definitely due to the organization & help of Events by Nicki! More...

We chose the most basic package and were very satisfied. Nicki actually turned out to have covid and couldn't come herself, but found us a great replacement, Mac, and things went very smoothly so I don't think there was much if any impact on our experience. It was great to be confident that someone experienced had things covered. More...

Nicki was fabulous to work with! We originally thought we could handle the day of events on our own with help from family. We finally decided to hire a day of planner and landed on Nicki! She was super prompt in getting back to us and was absolutely a delight day of. We heard from multiple people from our wedding that they found Nicki that night and asked her a question that she was able to answer. She clearly established herself as a point of contact for the wedding without much involvement from us! Nicki was overall one of the easiest vendors that we worked with. She was funny, easy going, and definitely worth while. Would recommend her to anyone looking for an event planner or day of coordinator! More...

Nicki was such a joy to work with! My husband and I used the day-of package. We planned our wedding from across the country, and Nicki was in constant contact with us the month of our wedding. When it came to the day-of, my family and guests loved having Nicki there! She is so personable, helpful, and made our day run so smoothly. It would not have been nearly as organized, smooth, or enjoyable without Nicki’s coordination. More...

22 June 2022

Nicki and Lauran are amazing. I hired them for a two month planning package and day of planning/coordination for our back yard wedding.

Our wedding day was PERFECT, there was not one thing I would change about it - It was hands down one of the best days of our lives. My husband and I and all of our guests had so much fun.

They did such a great job coordinating vendors. They can plan, but they can also execute an event that may be in a challenging/unique space.

I absolutely recommend them!!

Boy oh Boy - simply an amazing professional event planner to work with! Nicki and Lauran put their hearts into our daughter's (and now son-in-law) wedding and worked their hiney's off the day of - well worth it! They love their job and know what they are doing - thank you so much!!! Because of you - their wedding was amazing!!!! More...

11 June 2022

Nicki helped us with last-minute planning as well as day-of coordination for our wedding. We hadn't done a lot of prep work, and accordingly didn't expect much - but somehow, the event looked and felt like it was planned for a year, binders and all! I was impressed with how smart and capable she was; she not only kept us on track with vendors and task lists, but also played guide/cheerleader - telling us what to expect while reminding us that it should be fun! She approached us with important decisions and exercised good judgment on small things - which was EXACTLY the right approach for us. We had such a lovely day, and we are so grateful - we could not recommend her enough! :) More...

Nicki and her team helped our wedding night run smoothly and even ahead of schedule despite changes made throughout the night. Would definitely recommend!

Working with Nicki is the best decision you will make for your event. She is organized, communicative and her execution is spot on. She helped me plan a baby shower complete with catering, table and dish rentals, as well as decor. The caterers she picked were perfect and I plan to use her for all my events in the future. More...

We hired Nicki as our day-of coordinator for my daughters wedding. I could not have been happier with her! She is smart, professional and clearly experienced in making events run smoothly. I loved how pro-active she was so that the guests and I could enjoy the wedding without a single worry about set up, timing, vendors. If there were any issues, they were resolved without me, and I simply look back on the day and think how perfect it was. More...

Nicki is a true design wizard, she melted my heart when I saw the absolutely beautiful room she created to celebrate my mom's 80th.

On top of being a great planner/decorator, she is a fun person!

Thank you for making my mom's eyes sparkle! 🥂

Nicki made my wedding day the most seamless day. Her attention to detail and eye for design was crucial to the day. Her dessert bar was a hit and so cute. I couldn’t imagine this day without her. She was the best decision for this wedding. Not a single thing went wrong. Thank you, Nicki! More...

If you are looking to have a person take charge and make your event happen without stressing you out - Nicki is who you want to work with.

We hired Nicki to handle our almost 200 person wedding, trusting her to ensure our ceremony went as we envisioned and our venue to be set up as I dreamed. Nicki and her assistant handled it. I was that bride that had a ton of DIY decorations at an outdoor venue with potential rain - and she still made it happen, stayed on schedule and kept me from worrying about anything. I am grateful I was able to work with her and highly recommend her services.

I cannot say enough positive things about Nicki! I do not know how my day would have happened without her. She took care of (and improved) so many things that I was stressed about, and made the day run SO smooth. Any time I had a question or concern, she had already taken care of it without hesitation. There are truly so many little details that I didn't even know I had to think about! Her expertise truly shines.

We were trying to DIY most of the wedding and were debating having a coordinator in the first place. I am SO GLAD that we found Nicki and had her at our wedding. Hire this woman!!!!

I hired Nicki as a day of coordinator for my wedding. From the first phone call I had with her, I knew I hired the right person for the job.

She is kind, attentive, and extremely professional. You can see that she loves her job and goes the extra mile to provide the best possible quality of service.

She was more than a pleasure to work with and made my day soo much less stressful. No hesitation, I would hire her again.

Nicki was AMAZING!! We had hired her for a day of coordinator but she did much more than that. She took the time to understand what we needed to make our day special, and because of her, our wedding went as smoothly as we hoped for. She was attentive to every detail, communicated regularly, and gave great advice/tips. She helped create a specific timeline of the day to send to all vendors and made sure everything was on track from the rehearsal to the wedding day. Thank you, Nicki, and your team for making us feel so confident and calm on our wedding day! More...

I hired Nicki as my day of coordinator for my wedding. And I am so glad I did! She was FANTASTIC. I am someone who plans and organizes everything. But I knew day of my wedding, I would not have the capacity to put out fires.

As soon as Nicki and I spoke on the phone I knew she would be perfect! We corresponded a few times before my big day, and on the day of I was having anxiety, but as soon as Nicki got there all worries just melted away. She took the reins and was able to make my vision come to life! I honestly can't thank her enough for keeping the day on schedule and just making sure everything was to our liking.

If you are on the fence about getting a wedding planner, DO IT. And I highly recommend hiring Nicki, you can't go wrong!

24 August 2021

Where do I start? I began looking for a wedding coordinator after we had already postponed our wedding from 2020 and my husband (fiancé at the time) discussed how to make the actual wedding day less stressful.
We made this decision about 3 months before the wedding so I was a bit concerned about our chances of finding a great coordinator, given the short time frame before our big day. When I had reached out to Nicki, thankfully, she had availability for our wedding day and she was actually the very first wedding coordinator I consulted with.
From the very first time I had a phone consultation with Nicki, I got a sense of how well organized, professional, accommodating, and experienced she is. All the qualities of what I was in search of. Honestly, after having a conversation with about 3 other coordinators, I told my husband that I knew Nicki was the one we needed for our big day.
As soon as we hired Nicki from day one, she was always so helpful, attentive, and accessible. We instantaneously knew we made a great decision getting to work with her.
Leading up to our wedding day, Nicki made sure everything was ironed out and although I am a control freak, I was able to trust Nicki with my vision completely.
When I tell you our wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect, I am not exaggerating.
The execution of our big day, including the communication with our vendors to all the decor to the pretty much seamless transition of one event on our timeline to the next during what would otherwise be a hectic day, felt so so smooth.
If there was any major hiccup during our wedding day, I wouldn’t have known one bit because Nicki and her assistant had everything under control.
All the things people said leading up to our big day like “you won’t remember it because there’ll be too much going on and you’ll feel like you won’t have time to enjoy it” was completely untrue. My husband and I had the time of our lives and our big day was memorable from start fo finish! We had moments we enjoyed between ourselves and got to interact a good
Amount with our guests. This is all because we thankfully had Nicki and her assistant on our side.
We still say to this day that our wedding day wouldn’t have been the success that it was if weren’t for Nicki.
We are grateful that Nicki was our coordinator and our perfect day was even more perfect thanks to her knowledge, experience, professionalism, organization, and ability to keep things under control.
On top of this, Nicki is fun, personable, understanding and willing to ensure her clients’ vision is executed how they want. She even went above and beyond and far exceeded any expectations I had prior to hiring her. I can truly go on and on about Nicki and how if you’re thinking about booking her, do not hesitate! We are fortunate we had a chance to work with her and highly recommend her to everyone. :)

One word seamless.
The entire experience working with Nikki and her team was friendly and professional. They thought of all the details and make sure everything was done to our expectation and beyond. Nikki was very well organized and dealt with all the purveyors for us. Due to the pandemic we had to work with a very tight timeline. This was no issue whatsoever for Niki. Come the day of there was nothing that Nikki wasn’t doing. From pouring wine to checking on the kids and ourselves she was literally everywhere. Our wedding would’ve not been the amazing experience that it was without the hard work and attention. Highly recommend to anybody who wants an organized, professional, amazing, creative, diligent and on point wedding planner. Thank you! More...

If I could give 10/5 stars I would. Working with Nicki is nothing short of amazing. The thought, timeliness, organization and attention to detail are just a few of the amazing things she will contribute to your event. I initially was going to coordinate my own wedding/not have a day of coordinator (huge mistake). During our wedding planning, my sister in law had a backyard wedding put on by Nicki; we knew in that moment we NEEDED her for our upcoming wedding! She made our wedding everything we could have imagined and more. Through postponements due to COVID, a last minute venue change, and other misc issues that popped up, Nicki kept the ball rolling and had solutions to each problem. Planning a wedding is stressful, and Nicki brings that stress to a manageable level. She will work her tail off from the time you hire her, to the end of your event when the guests are going home. Would recommend her for any event and will be using her for any future events of my own!!! We love you Nicki! More...

I was so lucky to have Nicki plan and execute my 30th birthday party!! I had a defined budget and she made everything work: food (excellent), decorations (everything covered wonderfully), music (great DJ), invites (covered), lighting (inside and out! !), day of oversee, you name it. No stone left unturned. She thought of specifics I hadn't event thought of! It was more than I could have asked for and everyone had such an amazing time. 100/100 would recommend!! More...

Q&As

Creating peoples special day weather that's their wedding, baby shower or business event.

I LOVE planning events! Planning and executing events is what I loved about my corporate job.... what I didn't enjoy was all the paper pushing you have to do in the corporate world. Working for myself has offered me the flexibility in my home and work life. Less paper pushing and more fun!

I am great at commutating. You won't ever feel like I'm not available to you!
