Julie was such a pleasure to work with as our Custom Design Blueprint Designer, funny story actually we were about to be paired up with someone else and Julie sent a message explaining her background and how it fit PERFECTLY with what we were looking for for our wedding! Julie was super attentive and completely understood exactly our vision for our wedding day and I feel like we were only 5 minutes into our meeting! She is super responsive and has a great eye for detail, we wouldn't have had a complete wedding vision without her. She had a quick turn around with a pinterest board and when we went through it together I was gasping the whole time!! I couldn't breathe!!! hehehe 10/10 and i can't wait to get married, thank you Mostest! For reference photos, we told Julie our theme was LARP/ren faire-esque but we didn't want to go TOO overboard with on-the nose theming, and she absolutely delivered.

  • Serves Dorchester, MA

Hi there! My name is Liv and I am a New England born event planner. Being the youngest of 12 cousins, I went to my fair share of weddings growing up. I naturally fell in love with seeing the first chapter of my friends and families life begin. I’ve worked with some of the best vendors in the Seacoast, learning and growing as much as possible. In October 2021, I took a leap of faith and opened my own business! I'll never take for granted being able to work with clients I love, doing what I love. Let’s make your dream wedding a reality!

Awarded Best of Zola
It is not unusual for wedding planning to begin more than a year in advance of your big day. Venue, flowers, decor, churches (bring your own priest which is a thing), engagement photos, DJ, wedding party, save the dates, invitations. The list DOES. NOT. STOP. With all of these moving parts it really makes you wonder how such a complex event can happen without the slightest issue and seemingly end before you know it. Well, Liv is our reason. After months of planning, and picking, and choosing, and changing, and scrapping ideas our bandwidth for creativity and follow-through was wearing thin. Liv saved the day. She seamlessly coordinated communications between all parties and vendors to ensure that everyone was on the same page. I will honestly say that without her our day would not have come together like it did. Everyone tells you that something will inevitably go wrong regardless of how thorough your planning. Liv didn’t let that happen. The groomsmen forgot tie clips. Liv ran 5 blocks to pick up tie clips for the boys and was back before the girls even arrived at the church. Her foresight and planning were impressive but her ability to think and adjust on the fly is what made our day go off with zero issues. We cannot thank Liv enough for her help. Do yourself a favor and let Liv take it from here. Thank you again!!!

Here at MB Events, our number one goal has always been to have happy clients. From helping them plan at a pace that works for them, to keeping everything organized and stress free. We truly value the friendships that are made throughout the process.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not have asked for a smoother wedding day. When we first decided to have our ceremony and reception at two separate locations, and eventually realized we would be working with around ten different vendors, I didn’t fully understand how essential an experienced day-of coordinator would be until late in the planning process. Looking back, I’m so grateful I had the foresight to book with MB Events. I worked with Caroline, and she was truly my rock on our wedding day. She communicated clearly and consistently and brought such a calm, genuine presence that immediately put me at ease. We had a few last-minute changes with some guests who were unable to attend while another one was added at the last minute. Caroline handled everything by coordinated directly with the venue to remove chairs and add name cards without needing any prompting from me. I was extremely stressed leading up to the wedding, but in hindsight, I really didn’t need to be. Caroline had everything completely under control! We met four times before the wedding: an initial Zoom meeting, another Zoom call about three months out to review the timeline and vendors, a venue walkthrough, and the rehearsal. She was incredibly detail-oriented and always thoughtful in her approach. It was so helpful to have a professional to bounce ideas off of, and she often raised considerations I hadn’t even thought of. I truly felt like she was my safety net throughout the process. Caroline planned everything down to the minute while remaining flexible and when changes came up. I never once felt rushed, and I appreciated how down-to-earth and approachable she was. Our wedding day came together so well, and I genuinely believe MB Events was the cornerstone that made it all happen.

MK Your Dream Day began when founder and CEO, Mary Kate, was asked to be an extra set of hands at her co-worker's wedding. Having had a strong passion for events, she jumped at the opportunity and coordinated her first wedding in August 2019. Her love for wedding planning has only continued to grow over the years, helping dozens of brides have the wedding they have always dreamed of while growing a team of wedding professionals to help her do so.

Hiring MK Your Dream Day was, without question, the best investment we made for our wedding. From our very first meeting 15 months out, MK Morrissey and her team made us feel supported, heard, and genuinely excited about the planning process. MK is incredibly professional, warm, and grounded, and she set the tone for what turned out to be a completely seamless and (almost) stress-free experience. One of the biggest highlights of working with them was how easy and natural communication was throughout the entire planning process. Whether it was jumping on a call, trading emails, or collaborating on ideas, everything felt effortless. The team was always responsive, thoughtful, and truly listened to what was important for our wedding day. While they represent the epitome of professionalism in the industry, it never felt transactional, but like we were working with friends who cared deeply about making our day perfect. As our big day approached, Samantha took over as our day-of coordinator, and she was absolutely incredible. She was calm, completely organized, and handled every little detail with confidence and precision. At our rehearsal, even our wedding party couldn’t stop commenting on how impressive and in control she was—calling her a total “boss”. It was so clear that everything was under control and that gave us the freedom to truly relax and enjoy our day. We also had the pleasure of working with Kelly during the design phase and she was such a joy to collaborate with. She helped bring our vision to life in the most beautiful way and was also on-site on the day of to ensure everything was set up just as we had discussed. Knowing she was there gave us so much peace of mind! The entire MK Your Dream Day team was a dream to work with from start to finish. They made what could have been a stressful experience feel joyful, easy, and genuinely fun. If you’re looking for planners who are not only talented and professional but also kind, approachable, and a true pleasure to be around, this is the team you want by your side. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

We couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner than Sarah. Our wedding was nothing short of perfect, thanks to her exceptional work. She managed everything from vendor coordination and collecting Certificates of Insurance to handling all the little extras we didn’t even know we needed—extra white shirts, a bottle of champagne for photos, a steamer, and more. Her extreme attention to detail went above and beyond. As an anxious bride, one thing I hadn’t anticipated was how nerve-wracking the day would be, but Sarah's calming presence was a true blessing, especially before walking down the aisle. She kept in constant contact via text, call, and attended all the Zoom meetings with vendors, ensuring nothing was overlooked.

I thought I (ALL CAPS THERE!) was a perfectionist until I met Allie LeBon. If you're thinking "is this worth it?" or "do I really need a planner?" or even, "I can do this all myself." ...you maaaybe can, but if you want your day to be utterly spectacular - hire Allie. I can't stress enough the importance of hiring someone like her. Our entire day was magic because of her and her CityLux team. We started out our journey with a clear goal, but it all felt a bit daunting. Allie was with us from start to finish (top to bottom planning and day-of!) and made every step along the way incredible. She was prompt, professional, honest, and kind. It's hard to find vendors that are as "on their game." There were times that we were completely at a loss for what was next and she always communicated with clarity so we felt comfortable and prepared to make decisions. There were sooooo many details only she could have thought of. Just when you think you have it figured out, there are 3 more things Allie was thinking of. I constantly said, "oh wow.. I didnt even think of that." Like coordinating bus routes and timing that out... no thank you! We felt like it was all under control because of her meticulous documentation, flawless communication with our other vendors, and emergency plans she put in motion behind the scenes. MOST importantly, she makes sure you can focus on your day and nothing else. From the napkins, to the placecards, to our grass wall, to our place settings, to the drink signs, and everything else in between, it was all so complete and I wouldn't have changed a thing. Not to mention, she professionally vetoed some of our ideas, and finding someone who knows what's realistic and what's not is hard to find. I've recommended her to ALL my friends and every time I get rave reviews. Don't go it alone throughout this process. Go with Allie and go with CityLux! PS: The picture you see with our reaction was exactly the moment we saw our vision come to life at the reception. Speechless.

In 2004, after planning several events and weddings, she combined her professionalism and experience in business and her passion for wedding consulting to create Tangorra Wedding Planning. Linnea has been professionally trained through the Association of Bridal Consultants and has worked with some of the finest providers and vendors in the industry.

To put it simply, Linnea and her team are the best. Growing up in Massachusetts, I knew this is where we wanted to get married, however we were planning from out of state and needed someone with feet on the ground. From our first introductory phone call, we were confident Linnea not only had years of wedding planning experience, but she knew everything (and everyone) there was to know about weddings in Boston. Linnea answered all our emails, calls, messages promptly and she anticipated things before I could even ask. She easily and quickly set up meetings for us with our vendors. Even when I questioned some of our own choices of having a small wedding, she constantly reassured us that this was our day to enjoy! We valued her opinion on venues and vendors, and trusted who she had worked with. If Linnea said a vendor was great, we knew she meant it. In fact, she helped us choose one of the most beautiful venues (Boston Harbor Hotel) for our small, intimate, summer wedding. I had always expected the wedding planning process to be chaotic, stressful, and anxiety provoking, but with Linnea on our team I literally could not have been more calm. On the day of, I was able to enjoy myself and savor the moments, I did not have to worry about a single thing! The day was beyond perfection. We still have guests commenting that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! I am forever grateful for Linnea, and if you are considering a wedding planner - hurry up and get her on your team!

I believe in the magic of a well-planned event; the way a seamless timeline and thoughtful touches can turn a day into an unforgettable experience. Whether it’s a romantic wedding, a high-intensity corporate event, or an intimate celebration I welcome the opportunity to bring the idea of an event to life.

Molly was the event planner for our son's outdoor wedding at a rural location. It came off without any snags. She brought in wonderful, reliable vendors -- the caterer set up an outdoor kitchen; the tents were put up and taken down smoothly; there were all kinds of outdoor games; there were golf carts to help folks get around, and she had an excellent day-of person. Everything was so well coordinated. She even had contingency supplies arranged in case of rain, but luckily the day was dry. We were impressed, and we got to have a worry-free day.

Every bride's secret weapon! Partial & full wedding planning & coordination, tailored to your needs because you're unique. Servicing all of Massachusetts and Rhode Island, specializing in Cape Cod and Newport weddings, with availability for destination weddings! My services are different because its not a one-size-fits-all “must select a package” – you only pay for what you need, and nothing more!

We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing job Madi did as our day-of wedding coordinator! From the moment we met, she made us feel completely at ease and confident that our day was in the best hands. On the wedding day, Madi was calm, professional, and incredibly organized. Every detail ran smoothly—from the timeline and vendor coordination to last-minute hiccups we didn’t even know about until later (because she handled them without us even knowing anything was wrong). She truly allowed us to be present and enjoy the day without stress or distractions. Our family and friends also noticed and complimented how seamless everything was, which is a true testament to the care and dedication Madi brings to every moment. We honestly can’t imagine how the day would’ve gone without her. If you’re on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator—don’t hesitate. Hiring Madi was the best thing I did in my wedding planning process. Thank you again for making our wedding day so special and stress-free!

Taysia Alves found her passion for event planning when she took on her Senior Prom in high school. It started as a fun project which turned into a love and passion for seeing her visions come to life and seeing the smiles on all of her fellow classmates' faces. She started her career working at a luxury wedding dress shop then moving to planning events for several upscale hotels. The passion that she puts into her work speaks for itself. She takes every event personally, creating strong relationships with her clients in the process.

I would recommend K.A.E Events and Productions to anyone looking for a planner who knows the industry and is easy to work with.

Where your love story meets intentional design. I’m so glad you’re here. At The Planning Haus, we believe every wedding should feel like a true reflection of you- stylish, seamless and deeply personal. Whether you’re dreaming of an intimate elopement, a full-scale celebration or something in between, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

We cannot recommend Brittany enough! From the very beginning, she brought a perfect blend of professionalism, creativity, and warmth to our wedding planning process. We had a fusion wedding bringing Pakistani and Irish traditions together. We even booked our wedding ON St. Patrick’s Day! No detail was too small, and no request was too big. Brittany took the time to understand our vision and transformed it into a stunning, flawlessly executed reality. She even helped my parents coordinate a special surprise during our reception. On our wedding day, she was a calm, organized presence, ensuring everything ran smoothly without us having to worry about a thing. Our guests were impressed by how seamlessly the day flowed, how every detail was so beautifully crafted, and we were able to fully enjoy each moment without any stress. Beyond her incredible organizational skills, Brittany genuinely cared about making our day special. She was extremely respectful of the cultural aspects and embraced the uniqueness of the day. It was clear that this wasn’t just a job for her; it is her passion. We feel so lucky to have had her by our side and would enthusiastically recommend her services to any couple looking for an unforgettable, stress-free wedding experience.

New England Wedding Planner and Designer A Christian, Wife, and Mom of three - Lover of all things love. My journey to wedding planning began when I planned my wedding. I was immersed in the world of Planning and Design, and a passion grew. I know what it is like to walk in the shoes of a bride who desires an unforgettable day. With an eye for beauty, attention to detail, and a Master's Degree in Business Administration, I have found my place in the world of Planning! I help modern romantics create the wedding of their dreams.

We reached out to Sabrina once we realized how overwhelming the wedding planning process was and after one call we knew we needed to book her! At that point we hired her after we booked our venue, DJ and photographers so she picked up right where we left off. She offered a partial wedding planner package that was perfect for where we were at that stage of planning. Our only regret was not booking her from the beginning!! Sabrina's services kept us organized and on track with everything we needed to do. She checked in with us every month leading up to the wedding and was always available for any calls or emails. Extremely responsive. She had so much knowledge and first hand experience with different vendors in the area that she made our lives sooo much easier in booking the remaining vendors we needed. She also put together our decor Inspo and she was SPOT ON! And she brought it to life the day of the wedding! Sabrina also handled our timelines which we would not have had the bandwidth to put together that last 1-2 months before the wedding as we were already stressed enough. Our biggest ask to Sabrina was not to have to worry about anything the day of the wedding and Sabrina team delivered on that request! Moral of the story, BOOK DEFINED LUXE EVENTS!
