My wedding day was beautiful and so much fun. You would have never known there was a blizzard outside!! The day of my wedding there was over 2 feet of snow but Deniesha and her staff did not flinch or panic and that help set the tone for the day. I was calm, cool and collective and my guest followed suite and embraced the beauty of the snow instead of letting it ruin our day. She even suggested we take a picture in the snow and it’s now my favorite. She was there to orchestrate a safe and timely move from my home, the ceremony and to the reception. She also helped me put all the details of my wedding day together in the final months of planning. I couldn’t have gotten through the day without her help, attentiveness and pleasant personality.

I contacted Deniesha from the very start of the planning process. She was there every step of the way. She helped make the planning process as easy as possible and it was so much fun! She helped me pick all my wonderful vendors, the venue and all the décor for the day. It was a beautiful day. There was no detail she didn't cover. I couldn’t have done it without her help.

I’m terrible at planning the smallest events and when it came to planning my wedding I knew I would need some help. I reached out to Deniesha and from our first meeting I felt so at ease. She helped me set a budget, stick to my timeline and when my reception venue had to cancel, she was right there to help me find a new one in no time. My guest loved the centerpieces so much they all wanted to take one home. I had a great time and it wouldn’t have been the same without her. I can’t thank her enough.

I was especially nervous in that I was a bride from out of town having her wedding in New York. I am so glad we hired you. When I stepped out of the limo in front of the church, I didn't wait for anything, I got out and in minutes my dad was walking me down the isle. (Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like that.) I truly can not express how stress free that day was. Every thing went off with out a hitch. My vendors were taken care of and on time. From my make up artist, to the DJ to the band members. You took care of everything! The song that played was Kelly Clarkson's "A moment like this" when my husband and I walked into the reception hall as Mr. and Mrs. Reid for the first time, it truly was a dream come true. The hall was decorated beautifully and the centerpieces that you designed were fabulous. At that point, I relaxed and enjoyed the rest of the event since everything else was flawless. For all your future customers I hope they know how lucky they are to have a wedding coordinator/florist as talented as you.

A friend, whose friend used Couture Events by D to plan her wedding, referred me to Deniesha. After my first meeting with Deniesha I was sold, not just because her prices were reasonable but because she was warm, honest and accommodating. She reassured me that she could do all that I was asking for and even did some prelim work to ease my worries. Her portfolio was great and I was able to rest easy the months before my wedding knowing she would take care of the things I could not. Come the month of the wedding Deniesha was handling all outstanding tasks. There were some bumps in the road and costs cut at the last minute. She was very helpful in cutting the costs but maintaining the overall look and scheme we had chosen for the wedding. She also helped me to see the value in paying for services I would have otherwise skimped on like make up and high quality real flowers. Those things made all the difference the day of the wedding. I was glad I didn’t do them myself or go with fake flowers to save money. On the wedding day, the ceremony & reception rooms were transformed from flat to fab! Everyone was so impressed especially the wedding party who had seen the room three nights before. The details were magnificent, the flowers, centerpieces, seating arrangement display, everything was just beautiful. The bridal bouquets were jazzed up with matching stones on the ribbon that wrapped the flowers; the broom was dressed lovely in ribbon, roses and stones. Deniesha did an outstanding job with the wedding décor. I would recommend her to anyone who needs that help. At first, I thought it unnecessary to have a wedding planner. However, in the end I appreciated having her there so I could just relax and be a bride. Deniesha thanks for helping to make my wedding day wonderful and stress free!

Deniesha was warm, welcoming, professional and understanding from the very beginning. She was open to work with us in our unique situation of having a wedding in New York while living in Tennessee. I called her worried that I couldn't pull it all off but by the time my day rolled around, everything went off flawlessly! It was an amazing experience and I have her to thank for it. My groom, our parents and I were all able to sit back and enjoy our day thanks to her willingness to take the reins and handle the entire behind the scenes things throughout the planning process and on the day. We had 15 people in our wedding party (not including us) and 9 of them were females. Needless to say with that many women trying to get glammed up for a wedding, things are going to come up. Thankfully, every hiccup was handled with care and professionalism and went virtually unnoticed by me or my husband.
During the planning process, it was clear that she had experience and knew what she was doing. Deniesha made sure that every base was covered when dealing with the vendors and took care of things that we just would have never thought of because it was our first time planning a wedding. Also, she was more than willing to do things for us that we just either didn't have the time to do or were just unable to do because we were in TN. Every meeting, task or project that we entrusted her with, she came through for us. I am certain that it was because of her thoroughness and preparation that wedding day turned out so well.
I would HIGHLY recommend Deniesha to anyone looking for someone to plan their wedding. After having a wedding, I realize that having a planner for AT LEAST the day of the wedding is a MUST if you want to enjoy the day fully. And if you're interested, Deniesha is the Event Planner for you!
