Simply Events

eable, and professional! My wedding day was absolutely perfect and Judy was there from start to finish. I learned throughout the night and the next day all of the little hiccups during the day that I knew NOTHING about as Judy took care of it all. I would have never known anything wasn’t going perfectly according to plan. Even my now husband was glad to have her because he was able to focus on the day and if his groomsmen had any questions, he could say ‘go ask Judy’ and she would have the answer. My family was impressed with her skills as well! I was pleased with every single interaction I had with Judy and the Simply Events staff. I don’t think my wedding would have been quite as perfect and stress free her there. Absolutely worth every penny to have such a calming, commanding, joyous, pleasant, experienced, person helping make sure our day went off without a hitch. Other than getting hitched. Thank you so much!

ess leading up to our wedding day. Checking in with us. Asking all the questions we never thought to ask. Guiding us in the right direction. And then, on our big day, making sure that everything went as planned. She's detail-oriented, experienced, she knew our venue, the other vendors, and she took charge so that we didn't have to. The result: On our wedding day, everything went smoothly and we had an unforgettable ceremony and reception.

day because Amanda made me so comfortable. One of my bridesmaids told me it was the smoothest wedding she’d ever been to!

ng planning process. Tori was absolutely incredible. She listened, was never judgmental, and went all in on whatever we wanted for our day. We had more than a handful of hiccups, and incredible doesn’t even start to describe how Tori handled them all. She took such great care of us and dealt with all of the unhappy and issues so we didn’t have to. I heard a rumor we were her last wedding, which is sad if true. Still, I can’t recommend her or Simply Events enough. If you don’t think you need a planner…you do.

worked with Kayla Resh, and would HIGHLY recommend Kayla for any Star Barn wedding. We only worked with Kayla for one month prior to the wedding date, and she truly was a pleasure to work with. She fully understood our vision and wedding day needs in such a short amount of time. She had many great suggestions for our timeline and flow of events based on her experience at the venue, which answered and eased our questions and concerns. I had full trust in Kayla on our wedding day and she handled everything so seamlessly - I didn't have to think about a single thing. Overall, we were extremely pleased to work with Kayla from Simply Events, and would recommend her services to others!

ing process and made me feel like the most important bride in the history of the world. I cannot say enough good things!

the least. Her communication was perfect she helped me make decisions when I was totally sure but never pushed always making sure it was truly what I wanted! Which is so important because I can tend to settle to make things easy and I loved that she made sure it was actually what I wanted! If you are in the fence let me tell you just do it! It was so nice knowing she was keeping everyone organized while I was in hair and makeup and at the end of the night she was there so we could just get on the bus! Thank you simply events and thank you Carolyn!

need it, you will not regret it. It will allow you to be so present on your wedding day, which is something everyone deserves. Furthermore, Simply Events is undoubtedly the way to go, with a company who truly invests in their clients and cares that they have the wedding day that they have dreamed of. We first met directly with Deb who helped obtain an idea of exactly what we were looking for and needed for our wedding day, and excitedly celebrated with us and subsequently paired us with Judy for our day-of-coordination. Judy is an absolute gem of a human being, and we could not have been more grateful she was there for us, and for our families as our day-of wedding coordinator. We did get to meet with her a couple of times via telephone/Zoom prior to wedding day, so she was aware of our preferences and needs. There were several times throughout these meetings where she offered to help with something that was definitely outside of her scope of responsibilities, and suggested ways to take things off our plate. It truly made such a difference in ensuring that she was in the loop and able to best assist us at all times, as well as do everything she could to make everyone's jobs easier on the day of, so that our wedding day was the day of our dreams! I did have a specific vision and a lot of things already organized prior to even meeting with her. She was so receptive and patient with this, while also being so kind and respectful in offering feedback from her own experiences. The day of, our wedding day felt seamless and unproblematic in any way. Interestingly, I found out several weeks later (always a good sign) that our water goblets didn't make it to the venue, and she arranged for her own husband to go to the warehouse and get them picked up without us even realizing the issue. I was still in the loop with decisions made that day, but clearly not stressed about anything. Our vendors also couldn't speak more as to how seamless the day flowed when I checked in with them later on, and I feel that can largely be attributed to Judy checking in with them well before wedding day, and ensuring everyone was on the same page once there that day. Outside of her job responsibilities, she genuinely cares and was excited to celebrate with us. She's thoughtful, kind and demonstrates a Servant's heart. As a bit of a Type A personality and perfectionist, it was a bit hard to relinquish control, but she undoubtedly ensured our visions were achieved, and that my husband and I, as well as our parents in particular had one of the calmest, most relaxing days of our lives on a day that could easily have been one of the most stressful or chaotic.

and work ethic. Detailed review coming soon!

the day we we met Amanda to the day of the wedding she was nothing but patience, understanding, kind, and reliable. Planning a wedding is already stressful - but having Amanda's kindness, suggestions, and input made it less stressful. She had patience and understanding when I had any request to change the seating chart or decor layout/arrangement. Lastly, she was there by our side during our 30 day consultation and wedding rehersal to ensure everything will come together the day of! Amanda kept her word, that the big day will come together! I am glad and happy that I entrusted Amanda to coordinate and make any adjustments she felt was best. Being able to do that allowed me to enjoy the wedding that took so much energy to plan. Many many thanks, Amanda for making our day perfect and smooth - even with a possible storm on the way!

edding coordinator and she took all the stress and worries away. As the Mom of the bride Liz being there allowed me to take in every moment of one of the most important days of my life!

ving pieces and almost 400 guests, but the day truly could not have gone more smoothly. Kayla was our main coordinator and she was a lifesaver in every way possible! We had regular check-ins with her to make sure we weren't missing anything and any time we had a question, Kayla was always so responsive and helpful. There were several times throughout planning where she proactively offered to help with something or suggested ways to take things off our plate and it made such a difference. Weekend of, Kayla made sure all our vendors were coordinated, checked in on us frequently, orchestrated everything without any hiccups. It's hard for a wedding of this size and detail to go off so perfectly, but Kayla and Simply Events made it happen!

ful job at explaining everything to us and filling us in on all different options Simply has to offer. After we booked with Simply we then got paired with our Day of Coordinator Sara. Sara has been absolutely AMAZING and we are so beyond thankful and blessed that she was our coordinator. From saving the day when we almost didn't have plates to picking up food, setting up decor, making sure everything is running smoothly/on time and everything else in between. We can't say enough good things about Sara and I couldn't imagine my wedding without her. ❤️

rything in his power to make our day run smoothly. Dave’s responsiveness, communication, organization, flexibility, attention to detail, professionalism, and positivity are just some of the things that make Dave so good at what he does. I was a nervous bride, but every time I was in Dave’s presence that day I felt calmer and because of this I was able to stay in the moment and enjoy myself. Our wedding was so beautiful, everyone had a wonderful time, and I will never forget everything Simply Events did to help make it happen. 🙏🏼🤍

ed to our needs. We had Judy as our planner and she was so caring on a personal level. We had some very difficult vendors and she was able to coordinate and work with them as best as was possible!

ly Events. My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Deb, Judy, and Heather for our wedding day. We chose the day of package with Simply Events but I must say Deb and her team provided so much more than that. When I originally was looking for a Day of Coordinator, I wanted to work with someone that truly cared about our vision for our wedding and everything that goes into one of the most important days of your life. Deb right away made me feel heard, and showed genuine excitement for us and our day. After interviewing with many event companies, we knew Simply Events hands down was the company we wanted to work with (and we are SO glad we did). Leading up to our wedding and on the day of, Deb and her team were always right by our side, going above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. We couldn't have been happier with our experience with Simply Events.

hat was on the required list of her venue. HOWEVER, I am writing a review anyway because I KNOW Simply Events has fabulous customer service. While I was checking out the venue for the rehearsal dinner I was hosting, a Simply Events wedding planner was setting up for a wedding in the ballroom of the same event space. The planner was very friendly and knowledgeable, gave me her card (though she knew we were not using her company for our wedding), and a few weeks later when I needed some advice about the locale in Lancaster County, vendors, and some assistance, I decided to contact Simply Events. I ended up speaking to Judy Deemer. Wow. The conscientiousness, customer service, and "above and beyond" she displayed was phenomenal... again, knowing she only had a portion of our overall event business. If the service is that good when you are only a "fractional" customer, I can only imagine what "full service" attention would have been like. I highly recommend this company. I love their intimate knowledge of the Lancaster area.

, she was an absolute rockstar at everything she did and both of our families, and numerous guests raved about all the help and assistance she was able to provide to ensure that our day carried out smoothly. Hire them! you will not regret it.

those I didn't think of!) Amanda and Taylor went above and beyond day-of to make our day flow without any hiccups. My husband and I were able to enjoy our day with our family and friends knowing they would do a fantastic job! I HIGHLY recommend Simply Events for your day!

hing perfectly, communicated seamlessly and she just made all the details look perfect. I was in the loop, yet not stressed about anything! She made sure to never worry me and she always had everything under control. Tori is super personable and just the ideal person you want helping you out on your wedding day. I truly don't know what I would have done without her that day. I can assure you my wedding wouldn't have been the dream wedding I had without her. If you're on the fence about hiring this company, just do it!!! I promise you won't regret it!

knowledgeable, responsive and such a joy to work with. She took great pride in helping us achieve our vision for the perfect wedding day. Thank you to the entire Simply Events team!

coordinator, and her team took care of everything. Everything was set up beautifully! And then to come off the dance floor at the end of the night to have all the decor packed and in a car ready to go was amazing! That to me was worth every penny. They helped me think through so many details that you don’t initially think of, and that helps you save time the day of! We were kept on track with our day and got everything done we wanted! IT WAS SO WORTH IT!

re available to help us with planning, offered suggestions throughout, and had a detailed meeting beforehand to make sure everything would go accordingly to plan. On the day of, they were all so friendly and prepared. They handled set up, helped decorate, provided everything that they said they would and the food was DELICIOUS! All of our guests would not stop complimenting the organization, staff, and food. We were worried about having a large wedding with so many moving parts but Festive Board made it look easy. We would highly recommend them.

verything went so smooth and perfect. I would highly recommended Simply Events (and Tori)!

tep of the way and he truly made the day all about us. Having this team was a huge relief and made the big day seamless.

emic) we were planning for the big day. As a bride (with a background in international corporate event planning) I didn’t think I’d need a day-of coordinator because I’d been so meticulous and overly communicative. I was wrong. Tori was nothing short of a life saver. Not just “stand here, walk there, be here at this time” coordination… really understanding who we are (in a short time) and adapting to all the changing needs of the wedding weekend. We truly felt like Tori cared not just about things running smoothly, but in our happiness. And that’s not easy to come by. She was so efficient, so calm, and so fun to be around. As a bride that cared a lot (probably too much) about guests and their experience from start (hotel check in) to finish (after party), I was so very appreciative of Tori taking control of details I wasn’t even aware of. And I really thought I had it all covered! There was one semi-major snafu during my reception that directly involved my photographer, live band, and mother of the bride (aka tensions were high) and Tori handled it exactly as you need as a bride: with the perfect amount of efficiency, clear communication, important (expert) feedback, and willingness to do anything to make you happy. Plus, she made my husband (who doesn’t trust vendors easily and doesn’t like fluff) feel confident, at ease, and very grateful we spent the ‘last minute’ money to hire a day-of coordinator. Thank you, Tori! We feel very grateful that you had a hand in making our day feel perfect for us.

she does. It was a HUGE relief to know that I wouldn't have to worry about anything on the day of my wedding. The few things that did go awry, Tori handled exceptionally and we are truly grateful for that. Thank you Tori and Simply Events!!

ave did an excellent job in all the planning, communication and execution. We were able to enjoy the day while Dave took care of every detail and will forever be grateful to know that he was a part of our day!

went off due to her professionalism and attention to detail and to top it off she was genuinely nice!

lenges called for some quick decision changes. Whether it was helping to fill vases and decorate tables or coordinating an unforgettable first look, Tori was always checking in and making sure that our day was going just the way we dreamed. It was such a burden off of our shoulders to have her help for anything we needed. She was so friendly and helpful, and I am so thankful we had her on our team.

ted planning my wedding I didn't think I wanted to spend money on getting a day-of coordinator, but it was totally worth it! They helped me set up a timeline for the whole day, they finalize every detail from the time I got to the venue until clean up, and they also took care of setting and cleaning up everything. It took the stress off of my husband and I and even our families the day of the wedding so we could enjoy our beautiful day! I would highly recommended using Simply Events for your wedding!

ling you it will be a life savor. Jordyn exceeded our expectations and helped us with everything along the way. Especially during Covid, it was very stressful planning a wedding that we were not sure was even going to be able to happen, but Jordyn made the process so easy. She was so organized, communicative, and so friendly. She did so much like making our day of schedule, contacting all of our vendors to made sure everyone was on the same page, cleaning up and putting all of our items in our cars, and simply making sure the day went perfectly. She even helped rinse my dress of in the sink when it got muddy. I cannot thank her and Simply Events enough for making this entire process easy and for making our day so perfect!!

give up on being a bride but Jordyn provided us support every step of the way and eased all my worries. From taking the time to get to know us & our vision to planning our big city wedding to our backyard micro wedding she is incredibly knowledgeable, organized, friendly & was just so on top of every single little detail. I can’t tell you how many vendors reached out to me to comment on how appreciative they were of her professional communication especially during the final weeks leading up to our big day. Our wedding had multiple moving parts, and it ended up being perfect thanks to her accommodations. She was there to make sure it went smoothly, and came through with many last minute things I had forgotten. I still wonder how she managed to pull some things off! Truly a wonderful person to work with from start to finish and I highly recommend her! P.S. Simply Events is totally reasonably priced for EVERYTHING they offer!

la was our coordinator and I simply cannot say enough about how wonderful she was throughout the whole process. She helped us get all of the details nailed down so come wedding day, everything went smoothly. Both personally and professionally, I cannot figure out one thing she could have done better! Thank you so much Kayla and Simply Events!

ng so I could enjoy the day with my daughter. I will hire her again when my next daughter gets married.

asted money since I am very type A and consider myself fairly organized. I assumed I could handle it myself. Well let me tell you how deeply wrong I was, and how 100% right our venue was to have us add Simply Events. Wow did they prove me wrong. Deb was hired to be our day-of coordinator, but she was much more than that to me. Weeks prior to the wedding she came to the final walk through with me at the venue and was an absolute joy. I could tell she was taking thorough notes and felt no worries in the world. For the next several weeks leading up to the wedding, she was incredibly responsive and always had an answer for me. She handled everything that I threw at her, and did it with grace and a big smile. She took away so much of my stress leading up to the day, including confirming all details with all of my vendors for me and making sure she had each and every detail straight. The day before the wedding she not only came to the rehearsal, but partially lead the rehearsal for me, making sure every person involved in the ceremony knew exactly what they were supposed to be doing. She even offered to keep an array of items in her car overnight for me to bring with her to the venue since I could not drop them off at the venue early (and also picked up food for the bridal party on her way to the venue!). Day of, there were so many last minute things that came up that I certainly didn't anticipate, but that I also didn't even hear. She kept me in a beautiful blissful bubble, and put out every fire without my even knowing. No one in the bridal party was wanting for anything the entire day, and every detail was perfect. At the end of cocktail hour I had red wine spilled on the back of my dress, and she was there in seconds pulling me into a back room and applying cleaning solutions to it that she keeps in her emergency kit. It was simply unbelievable how seamless Deb and her team made that day, and I could not be more grateful. You will NOT regret booking Simply Events!

ur wedding party on time and in the right place at the right time. He organized everything with our vendors the day of. He was so great to work with leading up to our wedding, meeting with us twice which was amazing. When we first started planning our wedding we were in Louisiana and Dave accommodated meeting with me, and after we moved to North Carolina he accommodated meeting with both myself and my husband. Dave was incredible, his assistant was amazing - and our whole day turned out perfect with so much credit to them for coordinated so much!

edule without being overbearing! She definitly made it feel like a team environment! She even picked up our cake and lunch for us on the day of the wedding

e and pushy. That is complete opposite of Nicole. She is kind, knowledgeable, professional and really cares that your day is perfect. She goes above and beyond and your day will be better than you ever expected. We would recommend her to everyone!! Thanks, Nicole. :)

ughout my whole wedding planning (about a year and a half) and she made sure everything was perfect. My husband and I had some unique decorations and she and Liz made sure they were exactly how we wanted them placed! I received many compliments from my other vendors about Kayla and her thoroughness and coordination. I would highly HIGHLY recommend Simply Events!!!!

dors, making sure I was on track time-wise, and reviewing all day-of details. All of that work paid off because our wedding day could not have been more perfect! I am type A and can be controlling, but I did not have to worry about a thing and was just able to enjoy the special day, knowing Kayla had it all under control!

at care of us. The wedding was so smooth thanks to him and Simply Events! I couldn't recommend them more!

e ideas off of. On our wedding day, Kayla and her team were wonderful making sure that we had no worries! We were able to walk into the venue and see all of our dreams set up before our eyes all without lifting a finger! Throughout the night, the team made sure everything went smoothly and that everyone was in the right place at the right time. At the end of the night, Kayla and her team had cleaned up and packed all of our items into our cars before we could even think to. We are so incredibly thankful to Simply Events for all of their hard work and for making our day so special :).

I don't know if there were any problems at the wedding but that's how I know they both did a great job. They were so patient and on top of everything, and really just an awesome team to work with. THANK YOU!!!!
