I'm a wedding sales manager at a popular local wedding venue and have worked with Emily and her team numerous times. They are very detail oriented and organized. They are extremely easy to work with, flexible but will keep the time line moving. Can't recommend them enough!

Emily is a dream to work with. I’ve worked with Emily for years as a vendor and have also hired her for events of my own. I cannot say enough good things about her company. She is detail oriented, easy to work with and If you’ve worked with her, you’ve probably gotten a hug at one point - she’s southern. There’s no doubt that issues can arise on event days, they just do. Much of the time it’s not the fault of the planner, but it becomes the planner’s problem. She’s definitely the planner I want to handle the problem solving on my event days. I highly recommend Emily Sullivan Events!

Emily is one of the best in the wedding business. She takes care of every little detail from the moment you say " YES" to the moment you say "I DO". When you hire Emily you are not hiring someone that is just doing this as a side job or just because "planning weddings are fun", you are hiring someone that has been in the business for 13 years and has hundreds of weddings under a belt. This is her full time job and is passionate about wedding planning. They say "you get what you pay for" and when you hire Emily you are getting that and soooo much more. Her and her team go above and beyond the call of duty. I highly recommend Emily Sullivan Events.

I have had the pleasure of working with Emily Sullivan Events for years on dozens of events. Her and her staff are always a joy to work with. As professionals in the Wedding and Event industry, they really exhibit all the qualities necessary to help pull off a successful event. The team as a whole is punctual, reasonable, strong, decisive, diplomatic, and fair. And most importantly they problem solve. As with any event there is always the possibility of a problem arising and i have witnessed on several occasions the team working through the problem and often making it seem like there was no problem at all. I would highly recommend them for any event or wedding planning.

Emily Sullivan Events was a life saver for our family while planning our daughter’s wedding. This was a destination wedding for our families and there were many details to be covered. Emily and her team were amazing! So many compliments from family, friends and most important the Bride and Groom. I would recommend them highly.

Lots of talk and little follow through resulting in many unexpected issues, like with my wedding being pushed back and my cake being incorrect. In addition, there was poor communication about budget. Highly regret using Emily Sullivan

Emily has been a God send for me in three weddings of my children. Emily and I were first acquainted seven years ago at my son's New Orleans destination wedding. My son and his fiance lived in NYC, the two moms were in Ohio and Emily was in New Orleans. She helped me orchestrate an incredible rehearsal dinner for 250 people at Mardi Gras World. It was the kick-off to an unforgettable weekend and flawless execution at every event. Fast forward six years and Emily and her team orchestrated another (albeit smaller) rehearsal dinner. She was able to take my vision and expand it beyond what I could have ever dreamed. I tend to like to be in control, but at such a distance it's difficult. I had no trouble deferring to Emily's ideas and aesthetic. She had such a grasp on what I wanted, I never worried about the outcome. So now here I am, one year later, finally the mother of the bride. After learning of my daughter's engagement, my first call was to Emily. This time we added another challenge as my daughter lives overseas. Emily and her team are involved in every aspect of this extravaganza! From the welcome party, to the wedding, to the reception, to the brunch, to the hotel reservations, to the music selection......I am forever grateful. There are some aspects where I'm taking a leap of faith and saying to myself "Emily's got it" - we can't be everywhere all the time, we have to rely on Emily. She keeps tabs on the budget and doesn't add anything without my input. She knows who to call and her network of professionals is top notch. There were/are times when I get a bit exasperated with my daughter, but Emily remains calm and is the perfect bridge between mother and daughter. It's obvious that this isn't her first rodeo. Emily has allowed me to enjoy this planning process with my daughter. I can't wait for the end result - I know it will be fabulous.
