Statuesque Events

ears, lived in Illinois and needed to plan our multicultural Nigerian/Mexican/American wedding in New Jersey. With that being said, we had a lot on our plate! Fey took so much of the stress of wedding planning away. She went above and beyond all our expectations. She is very intuitive, decisive, provides excellent vendors, open to all our wants and needs, professional, and punctual. She has great relationships in the wedding industry and it is very clear why. Statuesque Events is a successful business because it is run by the best in the industry. I’m so glad I found the perfect wedding planner for our big day! We love you Fey!

step of the way to answer our questions or to help get us back on track. Always patient and unflappable, Fey was the ultimate architect of our beautiful day. She was instrumental in helping us to bring together our team of vendors, develop our design aesthetic, and incorporate multicultural themes. Fey easily has a wedding every weekend, yet still manages to provide professional attentive service to all of her clients who absolutely love her and her team. I have no doubt that Statuesque Events will continue to be in high demand. If you have a wedding in the next two years, you need to call Fey and her team ASAP and ensure that you hire the BEST east coast wedding planner there is available!

y guests were raving about how organized and wonderful wedding it was. Couldn’t have done it without her.

trying to decide what planner to go with we knew that Fey was the one. She took the time to get to know us not only individually but as a couple which meant a lot to us. Anytime I or my husband needed her she made sure she was not just accessible via email but also by phone/text and even met up with us in person. Anytime a challenge came our way, from finding a church and then having to move the ceremony due to construction, Fey was able to come up with solutions that not only worked but were better than the original idea. Fey listened to our (my lol) ideas and brought them to life. Our wedding ceremony and reception was intimate and gorgeous just the way we wanted it. On a very personal note I can’t express how caring Fey is. It wasn’t just about the wedding but she cared about me as a person. Less than 10 days out I started stressing about everything making myself physically ill. I wind up sending her this crazy email just freaking out about everything. Not only did she email me back assuring me everything would be fine and beautiful she called me as well to offer additional reassurance and didn’t get off the phone until I was ok. Lastly my dad became very ill during our reception. Fey could tell I was worried and distraught. She just held me which was so needed in that moment. Thank you so much Fey for making Antoine’s and I wedding day beyond memorable. Can’t wait for you to plan our next big celebration.

She doesn't let stress nor drama stop her from being professional. She listens to your needs, demands and wishes - no matter how crazy or good they are!

hich you really need in planning and executing the big day! She provided great feedback and advice but also made sure we incorporated what we wanted (even all last-minute changes). Statuesque helped us with everything including the floorplan, MC script, DJ playlist, and the overall flow. Secondly, Fey is great and easy to work with. She has a personality that is reassuring and calm which I really appreciated since I can be an anxious person (especially planning a wedding). For instance, one my bridesmaids forgot her dress the day of the wedding and was scared to tell me until 20 minutes before the wedding. Fey literally took off the dress she had on (which happened to be the same color as our wedding party) and switched outfits within 5 minutes! Needless to say, Fey really goes above and beyond for her clients and goes the extra mile to make sure you have the perfect day. And she still made sure the wedding started on time!!!! Lastly, Fey is really in tune with different cultures and traditions. My husband’s family is from Sierra Leone and my family is from Mexico. Candidly, it can be tough incorporating and blending traditions and keeping everything balanced. Also, in our case we had a little family drama. Fey was great helping us navigate through the ups and downs and everything ran very smoothly! A lot of guests say our wedding was the best wedding they have attended, but I know we couldn't have executed our vision without Statuesque Events. I cannot thank Fey and Statuesque Events enough. I only wish we could have worked with them sooner and hired them to do more!!

ional and she really listened to my vision and helped to bring it to life. She is experienced, professional and amazing to work with!

orted me when I felt like I was alone in the process. Definitely would recommend her to anyone!

ets everything done with a smile. On top of that she has very good judgement in terms of what needs to be escalated and what doesn't. Both my husband are lawyers and were working in New York City while planning a wedding in DC. She was able to work around our schedule, make time for us when we came to town, and handle several things without us. Working with her and her team was an amazing experience.

, to the wedding day itself, every step was discussed and executed with professionalism. Feyi understands all the customs that come with our culture (Nigerian), and helped us navigate through any setback we encountered. Our wedding was absolutely stunning and we still get countless compliments till this day (our wedding was 5/12/18)! Thank you so much Feyi (and team!). We are incredibly grateful and will continue to recommend you!

flawless. From setting up appointments with vendors, to driving to my house in the evening for a last minute appointment, Fey truly goes above and beyond for her clients. Her level of professionalism and expertise allowed me to really just relax and enjoy my big day, knowing that she had everything under control. Thank you again to Fey and the entire Statuesque Events team!

I questioned her! But everything turned out so perfect and I got what u dreamed of. I love them forever!

s until our wedding Fey and her team at Statuesque Events stepped in to calm our nerves and guided us masterfully to a beautiful day. From our first conversation Fey listened and truly understood our vision. She patiently answered all of our questions, helped us right our way off track budget, and completed our overall design. She created a unique X and O pattern for our reception space and honored our wish to incorporate the bride’s grandmother by including Delphinium blooms in our custom arrangements. In the weeks leading up to our wedding she ensured everyone had a schedule and she left no detail to chance. When the weather did not cooperate day-of she seamlessly adjusted without any issues or stress to us. We had an amazing day and we are 100% sure it would not have been possible without Fey and her team. She was a true partner and her partial planning services saved the day!

fter finding Statuesque on IG and then reading reviews on The Knot, I decided to reach out. I am so glad I did! I was so indecisive with my floral choices I changed them so many times! Fey was so great and didn't make me feel like I was being an annoying bride. After chatting with Fey I also thought about a day of coordinator so we booked her team for that as well! Our wedding went off so perfectly ! Everyone was in place at all times thanks to Fey. The timeline was perfect and man oh man my flowers absolutely gorgeous!!! I am so glad we decided to go with Statuesque. We had the wedding of our dreams. Thank you Fey and team. My family and I are so grateful. I'm recommending to all my newly engaged coworkers!

ing day and she absolutely delightful to work with! We were her first Ethiopian client (must admit we were a bit nervous at first) but her passion and dedication to planning put us at easy. She is well organized, accommodating, professional, and articulated (HUGE PLUS). She was there every step of the way making sure we meet our deadlines, listened to all of our concerns and made suggestions when needed. If you are shopping around for a wedding planner, look no further because you won’t be disappointed.

. The Statuesque team was responsive, professionalism and overall, great people to work with. I received many compliments from my bridal train and guests on how organized and smoothly the wedding went from the beginning to the end. This is an amazing feat especially for a 300+ Nigerian wedding with a 20 person bridal train. Without Statuesque Events on my side, I would not have had the wedding of my dreams!

couldn't be happier!

are we glad we did. Feyi’s easy going calming persona and professionalism shone through our entire experience with her. She made the last month of planning less stressful for us. Vendor management, timeline planning, communication, the works! She was awesome!! She was detail oriented and knowledgeable. She ensured our wedding party had what they needed and kept everyone on schedule. What amazed everyone was how she did this with so much ease while keeping everyone relaxed. I can't imagine how we thought we could do it ourselves! On our wedding, she was our right-hand woman and made sure our day was as special as it could be. Thank you so much, Feyi. You a ray of calming, awesome sunshine!

wedding that was set to take place in the DC area in addition to it being a two-day affair (the first evening being the Nigerian traditional wedding and the second day being our church ceremony and reception). All of these things we had in mind to accomplish under the constraints of a very strict budget and roughly a ~7 month planning window. We signed on to have her do full planning for the “white wedding” day and light planning/setup for the traditional event with the rationale that our families would drive how a lot of that Saturday went. Feyi went ABOVE AND BEYOND in helping us with the selection of the venues and having the feeling of each day be reflective of us and our interests. She was also amazing in sourcing our vendors and keeping us updated on how we tracked to budget and deadlines on when we would need to have different decisions made. Some of these vendor decisions did not come without their bumps in the road, but Feyi was patient with us in accommodating our shifts and preferences.There were very few items that Feyi was pretty forceful about making us choose to do and in those instances I followed her guidance and they yielded beautiful results (e.g., vintage limo and star lighting at our second venue). The weeks leading up the wedding were hectic with regular wedding things (e.g., family, getting outfits updated, etc) and Feyi rolled with all of the last minute guest changes, music changes, etc that we shot her way without batting an eye. I’m not sure how she and her team pulled it off, but we’re forever grateful for it. On the Saturday, although she was only contractually required to be there through the start of the event Feyi was there until the bitter end making sure that the venue was broken down correctly and that she was there to help with any issues that arrived including setup & clean up. She had a detailed schedule out to all of the vendors so at the crack of dawn the following morning hair, makeup, and photography commenced like clockwork with another member of her team checking in with both the bridesmaids and grooms party to make sure things were moving along. The Sunday reception was absolutely lovely and went off without a hitch. Critiques: If I could do it again I would have done her full coordination for both the Traditional Day and the Wedding Day. There ended up being a lot of confusion that day as to which family members were in charge of what on the traditional day and while the event was still very nice it would have saved a lot of headaches had it been Feyi’s to plan. The half coordination thing just doesnt make a ton of sense as a service in general. Feyi was VERY responsive, that said I think my husband and I planning this from farther away made it so that we would have done a lot better with a formal framework for moving things along (e.g., visuals of what we have to have accomplished and hard deadlines). I don’t think this would feel as necessary if we’re in the same state, but one of recurring anxieties was my husband and I wondering if we were on track.

the day i hired her! She is a very professional, articulate, and passionate planner. Any bride would be lucky to have her be a part of the planning for thier special day! You definitely in great hands!!
