Billy is FANTASTIC! AMAZING! A beautiful person inside and out! She went above and beyond BEFORE I had officially signed contract and continued throughout the whole process. Very affordable pricing for services (she’s worth way more than what she charges!!!!) Billy truly is the best as what she does. She ran with my vision and created to most beautiful wedding. She secured all of the vendors quickly and walked me through everything. She and her crew are very impressive and work seamlessly together. All of her vendors have great things to say about her and love working with her! I only had about 6 months to plan wedding and she jumped in immediately to figure everything out! Truly the best! HIRE HER as your planner and you will have the dreamiest, seamless, best wedding ever!

Billy and her team with Da Silva events is a one stop shop. She offers a Photo Booth, photography, and wedding planner all in one business! If you’re an out of state bride like me, she also offers pieces that you will not have to buy ie candles, vases, table numbers, etc. She will overperform and give you the wedding of your dreams. From the time reaching out, to the wedding day she has been professional, RESPONSIVE, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Billy if you want your wedding to be stress free. I had an issue with a vendor not responding the week of my wedding and she fixed it within hours! I also changed my reception and rehearsal location the day before the wedding, and she took my change of design for an inside vs outside concept seemlessly and executed this change at a high level that only comes from experience. If there is one thing I could not do without at my wedding, it was Billy. She was my rock and my sanity during a jam packed weekend with non stop entertaining. Highly recommend. Her prices are extremely reasonable, and she is worth way more than what she charges
The BEST Wedding Planner!

I worked with Billy for a little over a year for my wedding. From the first meeting, Billy was absolutely on top of her stuff. She is extremely detail-oriented, proactive, and is a total get-the-job-done kind of person! I can't tell you enough how important it is to have someone who has expertise, the willingness to help and guide you through the way, and also just genuinely cares. I was in school the majority of the wedding planning process, and it was very refreshing to talk to Billy who answered every single one of my questions faster than I could imagine. Also, Billy's pricing is extremely good. I compared her pricing to many other vendors in Pensacola, and I guarantee that you will get way more help, guidance, and execution with Billy than you will with these other wedding vendors that are just extremely highly priced with only the fraction of the execution of Billy. All in all, Billy did above and beyond for my wedding. I sincerely am thankful for her and her team. If you want a reliable wedding planner that you can trust and KNOW things get done, Billy is my absolute highest recommendation.
The missing piece to your wedding!

Wow. Billy Rae is a literal dream. I have been so excited to share my experience about the DaSilva team. This is for all my Type A brides out there! From the start, Billy had me. I live out of town but was having my wedding in Pensacola. The thought of planning my entire wedding on my own and then just handing it off to a complete stranger did NOT sit well with me. I knew I needed a wedding planner, but I wasn’t even sure exactly what I needed from one! I had three Zoom meetings before Billy. All of them were fine and friendly. They “checked all the boxes”. But when I met with Billy, her presence came off the screen. I swear I still can’t explain it…but my stress-shoulders literally came down. Her presence gave me such a calmness. My instinct was to go with her. THANK GOD. From that point forward, I’m telling you everything was smooth sailing because of that woman. Any question, concern, needing her expert opinion or just a dose of her calmness really helped ease everything for me. Our rehearsal got moved to a much smaller location because our venue was having a wedding the day before. My husband and I wanted our wedding song with people coming out on very specific lyrics. Billy’s leadership on conducting the rehearsal was amazing. We also had a lot of moving parts because of a storm and people from out of town. With her amazing communication, everyone was on the same page to have an seamless ceremony. The wedding day was INCREDIBLE. For decor, the DaSilva team did EXACTLY what I imagined. After hair and makeup, I came down to peek and see everything. (that Type A is hard to tame) I was amazed at it coming to life!! AND! I totally forgot about the Mr. & Mrs. Table! Who does that?! Me. And what did Billy do?! She whipped up the cutest table with extra decorations I had along with some back up she had. OMG! She even had all these little adjustments I didn’t even think of! Like tacking down items because of the wind from the ceremony. At this point, I’m not sure I can even claim Type A anymore. Everything during the wedding was INCREDIBLE. She kept up with the timeline to make sure all the things we wanted to do were going in a timely manner. The guests, myself and my husband had the BEST time truly because of the DaSilva team. My key points about this angel are these: She offers expert suggestions but always reminds you it’s your day. Her listening is IMPECCABLE. She pays very close attention to detail and will execute your vision. Her communication is next level—the bridge that makes everything come together seamlessly.She is fun, warm, and supportive, yet knows exactly when to step in and get things done. The perfect balance. I'm telling you....get this woman on your team and let her be the captain of your wedding ship!
