I've planned weddings and events for A LOT of years now. And, yes, I have to admit there have been many, many times when my feet hurt so much I could barely walk, my eyes were so tired from staring at timelines and spreadsheets until 1am I couldn't focus, and I was stepping off a plane from an event only to be boarding another for an event on the other end of the country...Ah, the life of a professional event planner...And I often asked myself sitting alone in an airport terminal or hotel room "WHY DO I DO THIS?" And then I get a letter like this one. It's the opportunity to work with amazing people and clients I have the privledge to work with. And produce an event or wedding in this case that leaves them with happy memories. Then I know I've done my job. And the sore feet, endless planning and sleepless nights, and tiresome travel have been worth it!



Dear Linda,


Sam and I are finally settled in as husband and wife. We find ourselves still talking about both our perfect wedding day and our exhilarating honeymoon. We just wanted to say a big "thank you" for everything you did for us. Our wedding could not have been as flawless as it was without you. Everything was faultless - from the timing of events to the layout of the hall. We loved every bit of that day and so did our guests and I think a big part of that is because of your diligence, style, commitment and smarts. Thank you for helping me with my dress and overall look - imagine if I added that bolero, the long veil and all the other gnarly suggestions I made. Thanks for your honest feedback, my overall look was timeless and extremely classy while being modern and fun.


Thank you for helping us acquire the best vendor deals. I often wonder what I was thinking trying to do the planning myself at some point. There was no way that I could have pulled off the tricks and turns you maneuvered. You saved us a ton of money with our vendors, some of whom we already had signed contracts with before we even found you. I don't know anyone else that can pull that rabbit from the hat! Thank you for working so politely with Sam and I so well. You balanced my perfectionist ideas out and made them more realistic; and all the while you worked with Sam, a constant optimist, by letting see and know that planning is the key to all things working out well in the end. It was almost like you adapted to the thought process of whoever you were talking to and reconciled any potential differences without us even realizing it. You are truly talented.


Last but certainly not the least, thank you for making our wedding the most memorable day of our lives today. We often talk about the day with a smile on our faces and lightness in our hearts. The arrangements and pictures turned out great. We were never anxious for anything. Everyone ate, drank, and mingled as planned. The vendor arrangements and balances were paid off without a hitch. There was not one single thing that went wrong. You did a great job and you deserve more than you charge for anything. You are a rock star to Sam and I and we truly feel blessed to have found you.



With gratitude,

Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Omolewu
