Events By Abel

e this day absolutely perfect, more perfect than we could have ever imagined. We had a very very specific vision for our intimate celestial backyard celebration, she set up, and executed our design, and ideas so well. Having Andrea as our coordinator was a complete seamless and stress-free experience. She completely goes above and beyond ( not only for our wedding, but weddings we have worked together ) and allowed us to enjoy our wedding without the added stress. Having her was amazing. We knew we would be in good hands, everything big and small from communicating with vendors, to making sure the music we loved was playing the whole time was taken care of. Our calls leading up to the day went over every detail and scenario, so that of course was great. From start to finish we felt very taken care of! We can’t thank Andrea enough for everything she did for us! We are so thankful that we get to work in such a beautiful community where we meet all these amazing people, Andrea being one of the absolutely biggest blessings EVER ! We love her, HIRE HER, you wont regret it !

another vendor" eye roll. I know, I feel you... but hear me out. Fast forward to now, 60-ish days post wedding day, and I can confidently say that I didn't just need a coordinator, I WANTED a coordinator. More specifically, I wanted Andrea and her team at Events by Abel. Despite the fact that we hired her for day of coordination, this woman went above and beyond, and made sure I was on track and comfortable with my planning progress for OVER A YEAR. During each check-in meeting, and more importantly on the big day itself, Andrea was kind, thoughtful, professional, funny, prepared, and ready to tackle whatever was thrown at her -- and then some. Despite the flaws, our wedding was flawless in my mind, and the bulk of the credit goes to Andrea. I recommend her without reservation.

r family is from out of town, the last thing I wanted was to be organizing vendors, decorating the space, and taking out the trash on my wedding day. After our first meeting with Andrea, I knew that we would be in good hands. She was attentive, asked questions, and offered vendor suggestions to help make the planning process easier. Her genuine enthusiasum for our marriage made us feel valued and we are so happy we worked with her. Her team does EVERYTHING! They transported our decorations to the venue, made sure we stayed on track with the timeline, took care of the clean up, AND brought all of our decorations back to us after our event. At one point during the event, we ran out of Jameson. One of her team members went out to buy more supplies, no questions asked! Andrea and her staff were super polite to our family members and made sure that everyone was having a good time. Andrea and her staff are great team players and meshed well with our other vendors. Our family is STILL talking about how our wedding was the best they had even been to, and we could not have pulled it off without Events By Abel. I HIGHLY recommend Andrea and her team for your event.

they just roll on the scene with a vendor list and a few instructions and act as the point of contact and timekeeper for the day. I couldn't have been more wrong. Andrea was recommended to me by a mutual acquaintance. Even though we hired her as a "day-of" coordinator, she was helping us for months and months before the wedding. We had at least two or three 1-hour phone calls, and she came to our venue with us for a walk-through. She created our entire timeline, including what each vendor is doing by the hour. She helped answer any dumb questions we had and never seemed impatient or like she was too busy. She also offered to draft up the floor plan for our entire reception. Closer to the wedding day, she became the main point of contact for all the vendors and shielded us from getting bogged down in our inbox during a very busy time. She and her team also did a large portion of the set-up for our reception. We just left sticky notes on items or boxes with what we wanted them used for and they executed everything beautifully. They also used their design eyes to make things even cuter or prettier than we had planned. At the end of the night, I was looking around at what a huge mess we'd made and how much stuff needed to be boxed up and was so grateful that we didn't have to worry about it. Andrea and her team boxed up everything for us, including all the flameless candles, votives, picture frames, games, leftover food, etc. During the reception, Andrea and her team helped make sure things ran smoothly, helped us bus tables and fill water stations, and so much more. They seriously went above and beyond, and with a smile and such great attitudes. They were working for over 11 hours that day. You may be naive like I was and think "I don't want to spend money on a day-of coordinator. My [insert friend or family member] said they'd help us." Give your friends and family a break so they can enjoy the day and celebrate with you instead of having them run around all day stressed and sweaty trying to do everything themselves and being left at the end of the night with a huge mess to clean up when all anyone wants to do is go home and crawl into bed. If you really calculate all the hours Andrea and her team put into your special day (both leading up to it and on the day-of), it's really incredibly affordable.... almost to the point where you'll feel kind of guilty about what a good deal you're getting. I'm about as "frugal" as they come, so please just listen to me and treat yourself to Andrea's services.
