Emily and her girls are simply AMAZING! They are flawless in everything they do and they never missed a single detail. from helping me find fabulous vendors leading up to my big day (and trust me, they have the inside scoop on the BEST vendors!!)...to taking control on my wedding day...everything went so smoothly. I was able to relax and not worry about a thing on my wedding day and I owe it all to this wonderful group of ladies. They worked incredibly hard all night long behind the scenes and made my wedding day completely stress-free. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them. If you are looking for a wedding planner, don't look anywhere else but to them!!! they are PERFECT! :-)

From day one of meeting with Emily I knew I was in good hands!!!! Every question or concern I ever had she was always a phone call away! I had scheduled a wedding singer for our ceremony and a week before the wedding she back out on me...when I called Emily frantic she stepped right in with no hesitation and said she would sing (and her voice is beautiful)! Em's team took such good care of us....I didnt have a worry in the world. During my father/daughter dance my dad stepped on my dress and ripped it...one of Emily's girls took me aside and fixed it in the matter of minutes....I was a sceptical bride who thought i didnt need a wedding planner...my mom talked me into it, and I am so HAPPY she did!!!! Emily and her team are the most amazing bunch of people and I am soooo blessed to have had them with me each step of the way!!!!!

Emily Weddings, Inc.- WOW, I cannot possibly state all of the tremendous qualities of Emily Weddings, Inc. Emily Petersen (and her team) are incredible, awesome, truly outstanding. Our journey with Emily started early (about 12 months prior to the wedding) and from the moment we met her, we knew she was sent to us from God above. A true angel. Emily was with us through every detail, every vendor, even there to dry the tears of joy! She and her team are amazing and we never dreamed we would meet such an incredible person that we are now proud to call our friend! At just a few days notice, the soloist for the wedding cancelled, but our hero Emily stepped in and performed the most beautiful version of "Mama's Song" we have ever heard. How do you say "Thank You" to someone that has touched your heart in so many meaningful ways? Words do not express our gratitude to Emily and her team. What a Blessing to have them with us during such a tender and special time in our lives!

We worked with Emily Weddings for our wedding. We chose the partial package, which worked out to be one of the smartest things we did for our wedding. Being new to the area and a first time wedding planner, Emily was very helpful when selecting vendors and helping us make decisions when it came to planning our wedding. All the vendors we used had worked with Emily before and were all very happy to hear we were working with her - stating they knew that the wedding would be well run and run smoothly. Emily is always smiling and helps you maintain a positive outlook as you are going through the stressful times of wedding planning. On the actual day of our wedding my husband, family, guests and I, were all able to relax and enjoy the day, knowing that Emily and her marvelous team had everything under control. Definitely worth every penny.

Emily Weddings did a fabulous job helping to plan and coordinate our wedding. After months of planning for an outdoor wedding, the skies opened up and it was pouring rain all day. The Emily Weddings Team did an amazing job of changing up the ceremony and cocktail hour locations and setup and worked with all of our other wedding vendors to make it a seamless event. My husband and I had the time of our lives dancing the night away because we knew the Emily Weddings Team had everything taken care of for us. We would definitely recommend them to future brides and grooms! =)

Choosing to work with a wedding planner was the best decision I made. There were a few unexpected snags during the planning period and I would not have been able to get through them without Emily. On the day of the wedding, Emily and her team were amazing. They catered to my every need and I didn't have to stress about anything. My wedding would not have been so awesome without the EmilyWeddings team. I am convinced they are the best in the business.

An awesome wedding planner
Emily and her assistants recently helped plan and coordinate my daughter's wedding on 6/11/11. What an amazing job they did. They are true professionals and are so efficient, kind, and took care of every little detail. My daughter and I were able to totally relax and enjoy the wedding. I would highly recommend Emily to everyone. They are the best!!!

Emily and her team worked tirelessly in the weeks leading up to our wedding to understand every facet of our wedding day vision. Their execution was ABSOLUTELY flawless. In my eyes, the day was perfect in every way. Her team was professional and courteous. They were right there every time handling the needs of the wedding party and guests alike. My Matron of Honor even commented, "I wish I would have had Emily Weddings when I got married." Thank you Emily Weddings for your attention to even the smallest of details. There isn't one thing I would've changed about my day! You made it truly a magical experience for me!

From my first conversation with Emily, I was struck by how warm and personable she is as well as how much she enjoys what she does. We decided we wanted a fun destination beach wedding and I knew that as a mother with 2 children I would need someone familiar with the area to help me plan. I absolutely loved the vendors that Emily recommended for us. She gave me a short list of people whom she thought would fit with our personalities and she was right on target each time. Emily was always easily available to answer questions and give opinions to help keep things moving smoothly. The weekend of our wedding was kicked off with severe weather warnings. Emily was on top of the back-up plan before we could even start thinking one through. We had a beautiful indoor ceremony with Emily handling every detail of moving our vision indoors and transforming the house magically between for both that and then back for the reception. It was amazing for me to know that I really could enjoy every moment of my day because Emily and her great team had everything handled. They were always ready to finesse every detail or request with flair. The little touches count for so much and they covered them all. I am sure we would never have even tasted our appetizers as we were doing pictures and Emily made sure we had plates and drinks brought to us right away. I really was the pampered bride thanks to Emily. After our reception, my Dad who had been skeptical about the need for a planner raved about how Emily and her team had ensured our day flowed seamlessly and was perfect. You are guaranteed to enjoy a magical day when working with Emily Weddings.

With a three month engagement and all of my family out of the area I planned most of the wedding myself. Emily was an enormous help guiding me in the right direction in choosing vendors and helping me stay within my budget. As the wedding day drew closer, the details kept piling up and it was such a beautiful relief to wake up on my wedding day and know that I did not have to worry about anything or make another decision. The best gift you can give yourself on your wedding day is to have Emily Weddings there to handle the event so you can relax and enjoy your family and friends and run down the aisle to the man of your dreams! Thank you Emily. You kept me sane and your staff made my wedding run seamlessly!

Emily is one of the most personable people I have ever met and she truly cares about making your big day everything you've ever dreamed of, all the while, helping you plan the details during the months leading up to it. Her experience shows tremendously with her knowledge of "who's who" when it comes to FABULOUS vendors (I loved every single one of our vendors; from the stationery to the DJ, my husband and I were extremely happy with all of them) and her ability to respond quickly to any changes (my officiant decided to call me about 4 hours before the ceremony to let me know that he was likely going to be about an hour late, but Emily saved the day!) makes her truly one-of-a-kind.
From all the help throughout the planning process, including, but certainly not limited to, hours of phone conversations discussing ideas and suggestions, to her going to floral appointments with me, to putting together the entire dress rehearsal, to getting me to my "first look" photo session on time, to making sure we got those sparklers!!!! Emily, you are amazing, and I know our big day would not have been the same without you and your staff!
I would 100% without a doubt recommend Emily Weddings to any bride, she'll be your new BFF!

My husband and I got married on July 24, 2010 at the Chrysler Museum. We hired Emily shortly after our engagement last year. Emily immediately stood out through her prompt responsiveness and upbeat and positive personality. I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator to work with. She was a wealth of information and invaluable help. She was especially great at anticipating those freak, yet obligatory pre-wedding bumps that might arise and nipping them in the bud quickly. In my case, that meant going through every effort to make sure we had the flowers we wanted and navigating a variety of completely different personality types in our wedding party with complete ease. Thanks to Emily, our day was exactly what we hoped it would be. She totally allowed us to have peace of mind during what could have been an unbelievably stressful process.

Emily and her assistants are more than wedding planners; they become true friends who are with you every step of the way to ensure the most special celebration of your life.

Emily is the best. Her attention to detail is amazing and like others have said she takes care of everything. From over all day of planning to the tiny details, she takes care of everything. Other planners that I spoke to seemed a bit to full of themselves that I got intimidated quickly. Emily calmed my nerves about my big day details and was always willing to jump in along the way. Her excitement about our wedding was needed especially towards the end of the planning process. I could go on and on about how amazing she was at the event.
I had always wanted to plan my wedding and loved getting to do it with Emily's help. Her ideas helped saved time and money. My dad said it best " Instead of running around on the day of my daughter's wedding day, I got to sit back and enjoy".
Emily is worth her weight in gold.

I had the joy of having Emily and her assistants help me plan and coordinate my dream wedding! She is an absolute pleasure to work with and will do ANYTHING you need! I could not have asked for a more perfect wedding coordinator for my special day! She was there for me and my wedding party through absolutely every unexpected encounter and handled it flawlessly. Any bride would be incredibly lucky to have Emily Weddings, Inc as their wedding coordinator. I feel so lucky to have had such a special woman be such a big part of my day -not to mention she made it the most wonderful experience EVER

Emily is most amazing!!!!!! She pulled off our Change of Command party for the USS Enterprise and our surprise wedding (which was in the middle of the party) together in 6 weeks and the entire affairs was planned over email (since I live out of town). Emily was the perfect mix between knowing what to suggest, when to let me figure things out and then being the fairy princess to make it all come together while we were attending the Change of Command. Even though when I walked in the door 15 minutes before the party was to start and it was only the second time Emily and I had met in person, I was 100% confident that she had everything under control. The house looked AMAZING. The flowers were AMAZING. The food was AMAZING and the band was AMAZING! When it came time for the surprise wedding (which was fairly unscripted) it went off perfectly. The very best part was when my now husband and I met in front of the Chaplin , we joined hands and looked out at the crowd....he looked at me and said "This is the coolest thing I've ever seen." Pretty high praise from a Navy captain who just hours before had taken command of a nuclear aircraft carrier in front of an audience of approx 1500 people..... Emily is the best...we are so lucky to have found her and you will be too!!!!
