I could not speak more highly of Ellicottville Events. The work that both Sam and Kayla did for the wedding was incredible. They truly went above and beyond and exceeded the expectations I had. I hired Ellicottville Events to do day-of coordination, but they were involved in the process much sooner. Even from the first introduction, Sam was asking all the right questions: how do you handle stress? If xyz were to occur, are you someone who wants to be told or would you rather have someone else take care of it? It was such a relief to talk to vendors who told me “I spoke with your wedding coordinator today- she’s really lovely. She already gave me a timeline for the day-of”. They even contacted my personal friend singing in the wedding to make sure she had everything she needed for set up and knew where she was going the day of. It was a wonderful safety net to make sure I didn’t forget anything for the big day. And they were a wonderful presence the day-of and at the rehearsal. Worth every penny. Please do yourself a favor and hire them to coordinate. The peace of mind they brought gave me the time to focus on what really mattered that day.

Lisa helped me plan the baby shower for my godson. We had coordinating invitations, cupcake toppers, centerpieces, and party favors. She was extremely helpful in making sure every detail was just right! Her experience even helped us to choose some really fun shower games to play that were over-done or cliche. Her presence the day of the event was very welcomed by the guests and I received so many compliments.

I had a to go order and my soup was accidentally forgotten. I called and was given a credit. I picked up the soup today and a very friendly gal behind the bar gave me not only a replacement soup, but a couple of drinks chips too. What a Class Act! So nice after a hard day’s work. Btw, their food is outstanding!! 😀

How do I choose my Event Planner?
Following these steps will ensure that you find the right Event Planner for you:
Objective - Before you start your search, you need to work out the event's objective, the budget you are working with, and your reason for hiring externally. You want to be in a position to communicate the broad outline of the event and its most important goals. You will also want to decide on the budget for your event planner and what they will be expected to do. A party planner can select the venue, recommend food and beverage options, source speakers and entertainment, be on-site on the day and create the invitations.
Find your event planner - You want to hire someone who has expertise in creating your type of event. Word of mouth is one way to find an event planner but it's not always the most effective approach. Look out for a company with experience and a strong reputation and do your online research by reading company reviews on Bark.
Interview applicants - Most event planners will be eager to hear about your event. Give them brief details at first and focus on their expertise in the initial round of interviews. Reduce your list of candidates to the three strongest applicants. You should then ask each finalist about their business, their experience with past events, and how they plan for contingencies.
Decision time - Once you have hired a company, the event planner should be able to share a detailed plan for the event with you.
Budget - Many people who organise an event for the first time want a champagne event on a beer budget. You need to work together to come up with a realistic budget. Plus, do not forget to find out about the fees that will be charged by the event planner and how they will be incorporated into the budget.
Follow up - Make sure you stay on top of the event planning and do not force the event management expert to make major decisions without your input.
You can be confident that any of the Bark local event planners listed will give you a reliable and professional service.
How do I check my Party Planner’s credentials?
There is no formal training required to be an event planner, although they usually have a degree or certificate from a university in event planning or management.
Before you choose an event planner, it's always worth checking out their customer reviews on their website and Bark profile. This ensures that they are trustworthy and reliable.
Can I get an Event and Party Planner online?
Absolutely! Whether it's finding the best DJ or getting your catering sorted, your event and party planner will be able to organise pretty much every aspect of the event online. You can even find the perfect venue through interactive virtual venue tours - pretty neat stuff!
