"After over two years of wedding planning during a pandemic,
I am so excited to say that Paula helped us create the perfect wedding weekend of our dreams (rehearsal dinner, wedding day, and farewell brunch)!
Paula seamlessly guided us through the process every step of the way, from introducing us to her incredible network of Hudson Valley vendor contacts to navigating postponement when the pandemic hit. Due to Paula's quick thinking and swift action, we were able to keep the same venue and all but two of
our original vendors, and she immediately helped us find replacements for the two that weren't available for our new wedding date. Paula truly brought
our vision to life with her unparalleled design eye and meticulous attention to detail. My husband and I are very Type A people, but we didn't know anything about creative design. Paula instantly understood the vision we were going for and executed it flawlessly. We also engaged Paula to help us design our save the dates and wedding day signage, which of course turned out exactly how we wanted. Throughout all of the chaos of the pandemic, Paula was our rock. She was always calm, cool, and collected and knew exactly what to do, even during an unprecedented global crisis. She goes above and beyond for her clients and always gives 110% effort to make sure every detail falls into place perfectly. After witnessing Paula in action during our wedding weekend, my friends and family are convinced that Paula is a miracle worker. Throughout the entire wedding weekend, Paula and her fantastic team instantly took care
of every detail and expertly solved any minor issue that came up. My husband and I were able to completely immerse ourselves in the experience of getting married without worrying about a single thing, and that in and of itself is priceless. I originally thought that I didn't need a wedding planner, and now
I couldn't imagine wedding planning without Paula! She has truly become part of our family, and I can't recommend her highly enough to anyone and everyone! It will be the best investment you ever make in your happiness and your sanity!"

"Run, don’t walk, to hire Your Event!
Choosing to work with Paula was by far the best decision we made throughout the entire wedding planning process. We originally thought we didn’t need a wedding planner at all, but we fell in love with a venue that required one. That led us to Paula, which we are SO thankful for. Paula has the kind of personality that makes you love working with her. Wedding planning is something she clearly loves and is passionate about, and her positive energy is contagious. She also has a soothing, calming presence. Even in the most stressful moments, she was calm, cool, and collected and passed that vibe onto us. Paula is selfless and extremely dedicated to her clients. She always goes above and beyond to ensure we have the best experience possible. COVID-19 caused us to reschedule our wedding until 2021 - a couple’s worst nightmare. She calmly helped us think through the right time to make the decision to postpone while the world was in total chaos, and once we did, she made rebooking a breeze. She contacted all of our vendors to figure out a date that would work for everybody, and within a matter of days we had our new wedding date with all but one of our vendors intact. In addition to helping with logistics, she was very in tune with our emotional needs during that incredibly difficult time. She saved us so much heartache and money! We couldn’t imagine going through that devastating, stressful process without Paula’s steadfast, compassionate, and level-headed support. Throughout the entire planning process, she knew when to push us to keep things moving and when to give us a little space to step back from the stress of planning. She understands that there are other things going on in our lives and adjusts her schedule around our needs rather than keeping us on a rigid schedule. Paula also has a fantastic design eye! She instantly understood our vision from our very first phone call and knew how to translate it into an event in ways that we would have been unable to do on our own. She has worked directly with our vendors to ensure we were getting exactly what we wanted without us having to think about all of the minor details, allowing us to focus on just the fun parts of planning our wedding. Paula has a great rolodex of vendor relationships. For each vendor we needed to hire, she presented us with a variety of options at different price points. If none of the options appealed to us, she was happy to go back to the drawing board and find even more options. We cannot recommend Paula and Your Event strongly enough! While we are disappointed that we have to wait another year to get married, we are thrilled that we get to work with Paula for longer than we expected! We know that Paula is going to make our wedding vision come to life in 2021, and we already can’t wait to hire her for future events!"
