Initially I intended to plan all of my wedding on my own - and in many ways I did. We were married at the Customs House in Portland, a venue that is a blankslate venue. As I neared the day however, I began to worry that there were aspects of the planning that I overlooked. I hired The Cosmos at their Month-of package level taking all of that worry out of the process. They took care of all of the things I did miss - called out that there was no plan for trash receptacles, revised the number of glasses rented, added bathroom attendants, adjusted the number of staff etc, but an unexpected element (and maybe the most important) is that they helped me to manage difficult family members. They figured out that this is where a lot of my stress was coming from. I was so grateful to their team for minimizing overall stress. I highly recommend!

We want you to enjoy each moment of your wedding day with your favorite people by your side! You'll trust us taking the lead. We are a Portland, Maine based planning company with 3 different packages.

I cannot recommend Cassie highly enough. She is a great communicator, and so on top of timelines/coordination that I really did not feel like the wedding planning process was stressful (which I feel is a rarity). She also was as able to translate my ascetic into reality so well, even when I had a hard time articulating it myself. For example, I told her “lighting” was important to me and she worked with a vendor to create the most stunning centerpiece, everyone complimented it (picture attached). I also deeply appreciated that she worked to understand our budget, respect it, and work to achieve our goals within it. We had several calls to discuss budget, check progress, and plan accordingly. Lastly, as a day of coordinator, she made the day run seamlessly. I feel like I was able to really enjoy myself the day of, because I trusted Cassie, and she anticipated issues before they even arose. My sister and I both used Cassie to plan our Maine weddings and were so incredibly pleased with how our days turned out. If you’re looking for a wedding planner, I HIGHLY recommend olive and co!

Hi there! My name is Liv and I am a New England born event planner. Being the youngest of 12 cousins, I went to my fair share of weddings growing up. I naturally fell in love with seeing the first chapter of my friends and families life begin. I’ve worked with some of the best vendors in the Seacoast, learning and growing as much as possible.

Her calm demeanor and problem-solving abilities were truly invaluable on our big day.

We booked Teyanna in 2022 for our August 2024 wedding and did not regret it one bit. It was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Teyanna was beyond accommodating and informative throughout the entire process. Her precise, creative, and professional "client-first" mentality shone through. From countless Zoom calls to meeting up in person to select flowers, it was more than we could have asked for and were expecting. Her professionalism and creativity showed through when we had to improvise our outdoor ceremony to an indoor one thanks to a horrific tropical storm. She called us on the morning of our wedding to ensure we were doing okay and went over every detail with both my husband and me to make sure she and her team didn't miss anything. We cannot wait to work with Teyanna again in the future.

My husband and I hired Madison as our day of coordinator. We did not hire a florist and ended up doing a lot of DIY projects for our wedding decor. We really wanted a professional to help us with setup and take-down of decor on the wedding day, so as not to burden our family/friends and take them away from the event to help. Madison was so friendly in the months leading up to the wedding and offered us lots of helpful advice on things we didn't even think to prepare for, like arranging seating charts and timing of processional songs. Our original venue coordinator ended up having to move away just a couple weeks before our wedding day, and Madison took the lead in syncing with the new venue coordinator on all the things we'd talked about. This really helped us out and took a load off our plate in those last few weeks before the wedding! The day of, she came early to the venue and, like a fairy godmother, had incorporated all of our decorations beautifully before we even arrived, so we were able to take lots of photos beforehand! Throughout the event, she cleverly found ways to repurpose some of our decor items to give them a second life, like setting reception flower arrangements along the room's bookshelves to dress them up for the ceremony, making a beautiful display with our ceremony roses and boutonnieres on our memory table, and using me and my bridesmaids' bouquets to create a beautiful sweetheart table arrangement! We were so incredibly thrilled with how well Madison and her team were able to follow our vision and exceed our expectations. A final sweet memory I have from near the end of the night - my hair was getting very tangled with my dress buttons on my back from dancing, and I was overheating and sweaty. Madison and her team arranged my hair into a beautiful low bun style so I could go back and have fun dancing again without worrying about it tangling further or looking bad. :) I'm so thankful we hired Madison as our day of coordinator, and we can't recommend her enough!!

Then they continued to provide clear and open communication throughout the planning process and were able to make suggestions as needed to advance my vision. The week of the wedding I was in contact with Morgan who would be our official day of coordinator. Morgan ended up saving the day when our bartender cancelled on us last minute; she stepped in and bartended on top of coordinating. Then she was able to work with me to donate our flowers to a women’s shelter; a cause that hits close to home for me. I cannot recommend Avenue Design Studio enough!!

Booking Cassie to be my wedding coordinator three months out to my wedding day was the best decision I made in the wedding planning process! I really thought I did not want or need a planner/coordinator, but having Cassie there really allowed me to enjoy my wedding. Cassie was diligent, organized, responsive, and patient. Cassie was so on top of every detail and knew all my vendors’ contracts inside and out! I had done lots of research online to make sure I knew every detail going into the wedding planning process, but there were some things I would not have known and Cassie was able to guide me through. For example, one of my vendors insisted an additional hour of rental time needed to be added to the wedding day (that would have cost me hundreds of dollars) and Cassie advocated for me, citing their contract, that it was not necessary. Cassie was also available to help make decisions regarding decor, helping me decide on pieces that best suited and enhanced the venue. I explained my vision of romantic candles everywhere throughout the event. Cassie and I worked together to shape where everything would go to create the seamless look. Cassie (and her assistant Cammie) made everything look stunning on the wedding day - and expertly packed up everything at the end of the night for us. I thought I could have my sister or family friend be in charge of so many of these tasks, but it was *so nice* delegating this out to a professional so that everyone could enjoy the day. Thank you Cassie for an amazing wedding day! Photo credit of venue photos: Created Coastal Photography

I believe your wedding should reflect your relationship, not social media trends or anyone else’s expectations. Through thoughtful support, smart planning, and honest guidance, I help you focus on what really matters so you can enjoy your engagement and start your marriage feeling confident and grounded.

Danielle Made Our Wedding Absolutely Perfect! I don’t even know where to begin in expressing how amazing Danielle was as our wedding coordinator. From the very first conversation, she brought a sense of calm, organization, and genuine care that made the entire planning process feel not so overwhelming. Danielle truly went above and beyond every step of the way. She listened to our ideas, helped create our vision, and made sure every single detail was executed flawlessly. Her communication was always clear, timely, and reassuring—and on the big day, she was nothing short of a miracle worker. Everything ran so smoothly, and we can’t thank her enough for that. Danielle has a special gift—not only for logistics and coordination but for creating a day that feels personal, magical, and completely stress-free. Our guests noticed it too—so many people told us how seamless and beautiful the day felt. We are so grateful to have had Danielle by our side. She gave us the peace of mind to fully enjoy one of the most important days of our lives. If you’re looking for someone who is personalable, reliable, creative, and incredibly skilled at what she does, Danielle is the one. Thank you, Danielle, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable!

I had the honor of working with Marissa last year at a wedding where I was the photographer. Her communication prior to the wedding day was fantastic and we worked together to finalize the timeline. On the day of, we had such a symbiotic relationship! We were a TEAM and that's what its all about! Her attention to detail is impeccable. Everything was so beautifully thought out and executed from decor to orchestrating the flow of the day. She was and is by far, my favorite vendor I worked with that season! Whether you're planning a backyard wedding or an elegant wedding on the Cape, Marissa is your girl! She has my HIGHEST recommendation!

I hired Emily B. ( Coast 2 Coast) as my event Planner for my wedding last fall. She and her team were fantastic! They were incredibly professional and helped me brainstorm creative ideas that stayed within my budget starting a year before my wedding. She was responsive and addressed any concerns I had promptly. She also helped plan and execute the destination bachelorette weekend and the weekend wedding events including the rehearsal. The wedding itself ran smoothly and flawlessly, and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome. I highly recommend Coast 2 Coast to anyone looking for an stress-free and unforgettable wedding experience!

I thought I (ALL CAPS THERE!) was a perfectionist until I met Allie LeBon. If you're thinking "is this worth it?" or "do I really need a planner?" or even, "I can do this all myself." ...you maaaybe can, but if you want your day to be utterly spectacular - hire Allie. I can't stress enough the importance of hiring someone like her. Our entire day was magic because of her and her CityLux team. We started out our journey with a clear goal, but it all felt a bit daunting. Allie was with us from start to finish (top to bottom planning and day-of!) and made every step along the way incredible. She was prompt, professional, honest, and kind. It's hard to find vendors that are as "on their game." There were times that we were completely at a loss for what was next and she always communicated with clarity so we felt comfortable and prepared to make decisions. There were sooooo many details only she could have thought of. Just when you think you have it figured out, there are 3 more things Allie was thinking of. I constantly said, "oh wow.. I didnt even think of that." Like coordinating bus routes and timing that out... no thank you! We felt like it was all under control because of her meticulous documentation, flawless communication with our other vendors, and emergency plans she put in motion behind the scenes. MOST importantly, she makes sure you can focus on your day and nothing else. From the napkins, to the placecards, to our grass wall, to our place settings, to the drink signs, and everything else in between, it was all so complete and I wouldn't have changed a thing. Not to mention, she professionally vetoed some of our ideas, and finding someone who knows what's realistic and what's not is hard to find. I've recommended her to ALL my friends and every time I get rave reviews. Don't go it alone throughout this process. Go with Allie and go with CityLux! PS: The picture you see with our reaction was exactly the moment we saw our vision come to life at the reception. Speechless.

The stars aligned when I became a wedding planner and coordinator. Through my professional skills, I ensure that my couple's dream day comes to life. I have a knack for remaining calm, cool, and collected during the height of potentially stressful situations. My favorite moment of a couple's day is when they hit the dance floor to let loose and celebrate with their friends and family.

From the moment we booked Lauren with LfG Co Weddings & Events New England, the experience was easy, stress-free, and highly communicative. Lauren was incredibly responsive, quickly addressing any questions or concerns we had. Her professionalism and attention to detail were truly outstanding, ensuring our special day went off without a hitch. Lauren was by my side every step of the way, making the entire process feel worry-free. I cannot recommend LfG Co Weddings & Events New England highly enough - our day wouldn’t have been the same!
