Reviews of Purple Lilly Events (Event Planner)

Marshelle Slayton

I couldn't recommend Toni Booker with Purple Lilly Events more as a wedding coordinator. She was prompt, professional, fun, easy to work with, creative, and a fantastic project manager. My mom and I could not have pulled off the wedding without her help. It was great to know that come the day of we could relax and trust Toni to take care of anything immediately. The event turned out even better than I expected! My wedding had a TON of moving parts given that a lot of the décor was DIY. Toni helped me stay realistic and on budget while still making sure I got the wedding I was envisioning. It is apparent that Toni is also respected by others in the industry who were happy to hear that they would be working with her. I am so happy that we hired Toni and she was an integral part in making sure our wedding was a total blast!

Toni from Purple Lily Events is THE wedding planner you should ever go with. When she did my brothers wedding, we were so impressed that we hired her too! We hired her for the whole package from planning, working with vendors, and organizing the day of the wedding. WORTH. EVERY. PENNY. She works super hard to keep things stress free, and her super sassy attitude made me feel super at ease, almost like just hanging out with a friend... a very talented friend! Purple Lily Events has worked extensively with many of the local vendors, and always knows who to call, regardless of what you want. Every vendor we chose told us independently that Toni is their favorite wedding planner to work with. If we ever plan another event, this is the ONLY planner we will call.

I can't say enough about Toni Booker and Purple Lilly Events - we had the most spectacular wedding, and we truly owe most of that to Toni and her team. We set out to plan our wedding over a year in advance. It became evident that we really needed a Planner to help us, at the very least on the day of (but ideally, partial planning leading up to the event). We didn’t have a tremendous budget by any means, as we had to fund our own wedding entirely. So we met with 4 different people/companies, and we just weren't happy with what we were hearing. It felt that we would either be getting someone else's vision for our wedding, or we'd be paying an arm and a leg to have almost no contact prior to the day of. We finally met with Toni, and instantly connected - it was clear that Toni would help us realize OUR vision of the wedding day, but with her years of expertise and know-how to actually accomplish it. Not to mention, the flexibility Toni offered with the pricing and consistent access to her was just amazing. Toni was proactive and diligent from the get go; she made herself available and was clearly on a mission to help us figure out everything we wanted. Far exceeding what I would consider to be a "partial planner." She met with us, where convenient on our end, countless times. As often as we needed. She jumped through hoops to help us realize our vision. Whether it was driving to and from Salem to haul wood chargers we wanted for the wedding, or finding vendors that offered unique elements, Toni was always game for the challenge. Things that anyone else would have charged extra for, Toni put her whole heart into making happen. The value for what you get with Toni and Purple Lilly Events is truly off the charts. When it came to the big day, Toni and team made it feel completely seamless. We had zero worries to think about. They handled themselves impeccably - keeping all vendors aligned and on task, working with opinionated guests in a massively respectful way, and making sure we didn’t have an ounce of energy put into work (just simply enjoying our day). In all honesty, we came out of this process feeling like we’d made a new friend. Toni was a laugh a minute, which is so important during what is a very stressful process. We genuinely enjoyed her company and had so much fun working with her. But ultimately, she made it so that we could trust her implicitly – she was always accessible, by phone or email or in person – she stayed on top of even the most difficult vendors, identifying oddities in invoices/estimates and making sure we got the best and the right deals – and she helped us navigate very foreign waters to help us have our dream day. We are so grateful, and with full conviction recommend her to anyone out there looking to bring your wedding day to life via the best in the business. Toni and Purple Lilly is hands down the best value and delivered the most impeccable results. We look back on our wedding day as one of the happiest of our lives – and know with 100% certainty that it would not have been possible on our own or with another partner. Thank you Toni and Purple Lilly Events!
