Every wedding I plan is approached with the same care, consideration, and attention I would give if it belonged to someone I love. That philosophy shapes every recommendation I make from the biggest decisions to the smallest details. My background is in hospitality, so creating experiences where people feel welcomed and cared for has always been at the heart of what I do. I bring that same mindset to every wedding, helping couples navigate the planning process with guidance they can trust and creating celebrations that feel genuine, meaningful, and entirely their own.

“THANK YOU DANIELLE! We could not have pulled off the most perfect day without her. I have been recommending her to all of my friends in the wedding planning stage because she so beyond worth it. Me and my husband think so highly of Danielle because she made planning easy, relaxing, and fun, which is not the experience many of my friends have had. Most importantly, she made sure the wedding ran so smoothly that my husband and I could be fully in the moment and enjoy every second of our wedding. We did not have to lift a finger! For the type A people debating if they could relinquish planning to someone else...let this be your sign that you can and should! I typically plan everything (trips into PowerPoints with rain plans, alternate forms of transportation, etc) so I was worried having a planner would be hard for me. I could not have been more wrong. Danielle does so much work behind the scenes and is so proactive that I knew I could fully relax. I am so grateful we hired her. I had complete confidence she had every detail and its plan b planned. She is a great communicator and you can tell she loves what she does. All the vendors at my wedding (photographer, makeup artists, venue coordinator, etc) had commented about how Danielle was so on top of everything, communicated well & early, went above and beyond compared to any other planner they had ever worked with. So this review is both from very happy customers and very happy wedding vendors. Danielle was very easy to connect with and kept it real. If she thought something wasn’t a good idea, not worth it, etc she would tell you and that’s how she quickly built trust and made sure we stayed within budget. On the day of the wedding we had two big issues come up (not her fault) and I did not even bat an eye because I knew Danielle was on it. First issue was the hotel had given one of our suites up for getting ready in. In less than an hour, we had keys to both of the suites we had booked. Our shuttle for the wedding also did not show up. Luckily, guests were able to get to the venue. In the background, Danielle was finding alternative options for transportation. At the end of the night the shuttle showed up and she ensured they not only brought people back to the hotel and after party, but also back from the after party when the bar closed. After the wedding, we was able to get us a refund after HOURS of calling the shuttle company. Danielle is someone who will go to bat for you, has years of experience, and is so good she even had a Type A bride feel totally relaxed on the wedding day. Thank you for everything!”

Hey there! My name is Victoria and what I love the most is helping people plan their special events and taking on the heavy organizational burden, so they can focus on enjoying their day. Whether it's a wedding, a birthday, or a holiday party, I'm passionate about creating an experience that is tailored to each client's unique needs and preferences. In my free time, I love practicing yoga, reading books, rewatching Harry Potter, and snuggling my Corgi (if he lets me). Let's work together to create an unforgettable experience that will leave you and your guests with lasting memories!

“Victoria has a real talent - she is professional, thorough, has a sharp eye for detail, and above all, she is empathetic and kind. It was such a relief for me to put my trust in her on my wedding day - it made me more present and able to live in the moment because I knew whatever happened, she’d be there! From setting up the reception area to making sure I always had a drink in my hand, she was there for me. It was great to bounce ideas off of her in the wedding planning process, and everything came together flawlessly. I truly couldn’t have done it without her.”

“I had a lovely experience working with Rhonda this fall at a wedding in Rockport. As the wedding photographer for the event, I was thankful for Rhonda's coordination and assistance with the family during our group shots. She was also very prompt in transforming the ceremony space into the reception area, and was a great resource when it came to asking questions about the evening's schedule. I highly recommend Rhonda to anyone looking for a coordinator to ensure their event comes together as planned!”

Without A Hitch 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Offers 1 service
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Essex, MA

Sarah has been planning events of all sizes for nearly 20 years. Her background in planning events started in the nonprofit industry in 2004, when she was responsible for coordinating the annual Shake it for Shelter fundraising event at COMPASS for Kids for several years. At Cradles to Crayons, Sarah oversaw all of the organization's signature events, including the 700-person annual Backpack-a-thon and the largest fundraiser of the year, the "Un-Gala". Sarah also worked at Facing History and Ourselves, where she planned their annual 900-person benefit dinner and advised their ten company offices on event strategy and execution.

“When we started wedding planning, the only thing I knew for sure was that I wanted day-of coordination support. After we toured Olio and met Sarah, booking with her team at Without A Hitch was a no brainer and truly worth every penny. Our coordinator, Allison, supported us all along the way; no question was too big or too small. Her responses were timely, infinitely useful, and a massive weight off of our shoulders throughout the entire process. We leaned on many of her recommendations for vendors, including some of our very favorite wedding components like the arcade games we set up for guests and our awesome DJ. As we got closer to the event, it became clear just how great our choice was to work with Allison and Without a Hitch, they kept us (and our many, many vendors!) organized and I felt confident our day would go to plan. Allison was encouraging, kind, and even helped up coordinate an epic visit from Santa Claus to surprise our guests on the dance floor. The Without a Hitch team was so professional and couple-oriented, I could really tell they wanted us to have the experience we were looking for, and put us first throughout the process. We couldn't have done it without them!”

Hi there! I'm Victoria and I am the Owner and Event Planner at Juniper Lane Design. I've loved creating experiences and hosting events since I was young and that inspired me to start wedding planning full time. I enjoy creating unforgettable experiences for guests and I'm excited to come up with an event design that is as unique as your love story!

“Victoria was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the moment we started working with her, my husband and I felt like we were in incredibly capable hands. She took a huge weight off our shoulders by helping us think through, organize, and refine all of the small details that can easily get overlooked during wedding planning. One of the most helpful parts of the process was the detailed Google Sheet she provided. It guided us through important decisions and logistics we hadn't even considered yet, and looking back, we're so grateful those details were addressed ahead of time. By the wedding weekend, we had a clear understanding of what to expect and exactly what we could rely on Victoria to handle. She also proactively coordinated with our venue manager to clarify responsibilities and ensure everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. That level of organization and communication gave us so much confidence going into the day. One thing that especially impressed us was her eye for design and attention to detail. We weren't able to provide detailed instructions for exactly how we wanted every décor item arranged, but Victoria took what we had envisioned and executed it beautifully. Everything felt thoughtful, intentional, and cohesive. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful everything looked, and we truly credit her for bringing all of those pieces together so seamlessly. Beyond her professionalism, Victoria is genuinely warm, positive, and a joy to be around. She made everyone feel welcome and navigated family dynamics thoughtfully and gracefully during both the rehearsal and wedding day. Her calm presence and infectious positivity helped keep everyone at ease. It's hard to feel overwhelmed when Victoria is by your side because you know she's taking care of things. We were able to be fully present and enjoy our wedding day knowing she had everything under control, and our guests had an amazing time as a result. We can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you for everything!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Ayden! I hired her later in the planning process, and my only regret is not hiring her sooner. She truly kept me sane on my wedding day. From quickly bustling my dress so I could get back to the party, to even helping my dad fix the hem of his pants—she went above and beyond in every way. My venue went through three different coordinators in the span of a year (something I never thought would happen, especially at such a nice hotel in Maine). The communication was a nightmare, and I honestly don’t know what I would have done without Ayden. She was relentless in trying to get in contact with someone when I simply didn’t have the time—I work a full-time, demanding job—and I didn’t even hear from the venue until about three weeks before my wedding. We still had timeline issues that needed immediate attention, and Ayden took charge. She finally got me in touch with the general manager, and things smoothed out from there. By the time the wedding arrived, I was so burnt out that I gave Ayden very little direction on how to set up some of my decorative pieces—and she absolutely nailed it. Everything looked wonderful and exactly how I had envisioned it (if not better). She kept me on schedule, executed every detail perfectly, and made the day feel effortless. I know wedding planning is expensive, but the stress and anxiety are just not worth the hassle. Having Ayden there was truly priceless. She is calm, collected, and incredibly detail-oriented—exactly the person you want by your side on your wedding day. If you’re on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator, let this be your sign—Ayden is absolutely incredible!”

“If you want a wedding planner that feels more like a best friend helping you plan a wedding rather than a stranger coordinating the big day then you’re going to want to hire Brittany. From the very first meeting all the way up until our wedding, Brittany was there helping me with every detail. Honestly, I’m sad the wedding is over because I wish I still had a reason to keep meeting with her. Brittany S. Events was our Day Of Wedding Coordinator, but that doesn’t even begin to cover the role she played in our wedding. She took what could be a stressful experience and helped make it one that I actually enjoyed the process of planning. She listened to my ideas, answered any and all questions, and truly brought the vision I didn’t even know I had to life. She worked seamlessly with all of our vendors, handled every detail of the wedding day and made it all look easy in the process. Honestly I don’t have enough words to explain how much I enjoyed working with Brittany and her team, I’d go through the wedding planning process all over again just to work with her.

“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!!”

House of Elleon is a luxury white-glove wedding and event planning & design studio founded by Noelle Cappuzzo, specializing in refined, editorial celebrations with an emotional core. Each event is a carefully curated experience where the client’s vision is executed with precision, elevated through thoughtful design, and brought to life with seamless flow. With a focus on enhancing the overall experience—not just the aesthetic—Noelle blends creative direction with logistical mastery so every moment feels effortless, intentional, and distinctly personal. Events are expertly produced, emotionally resonant, and elevated from start to finish.

“I genuinely do not even know where to begin when it comes to Noelle because there are not enough words to explain how incredible she is. From the VERY beginning of my wedding planning process over a year ago, she handled absolutely everything and more. Any thought, question, idea, concern, crash out, or micromanaging moment I had (and trust me… there were MANY), I could text or call her at literally any time, and she was always there. Not once did she ever make me feel annoying, dramatic, or “too much.” Instead, she made me feel heard, understood, supported, and excited every single step of the way. What makes Noelle so special is that she doesn’t just “plan weddings.” She genuinely takes your vision and transforms it into something bigger and more beautiful than you could have even imagined for yourself. The ideas I had in my head for my wedding somehow came to life TIMES TEN. Every tiny detail was perfected. She thought of things before I even had to ask. She guided me through every decision while still making me feel like the wedding truly reflected me and my husband. And the professionalism? Insane. The organization? Insane. The patience? Saint level. She worked with my budget and constantly gave me options to still achieve the luxury, elegant look I wanted without making me feel pressured to spend beyond my means. She found almost all of my vendors, and every single one of them was phenomenal. The amount of compliments I still receive from guests weeks and months later about how beautiful, organized, and seamless my wedding was honestly speaks for itself. But what REALLY blew me away was wedding day itself. When I tell you I did not have a single worry in the world, I mean it. Noelle and her team handled EVERYTHING. She was genuinely a rockstar from beginning to end. At one point she literally did my late night McDonald’s run herself while her assistants stayed behind making sure me, my bridal party, and my family had everything we needed. Who does that?! That level of care is so rare. She treated my wedding like it was just as important to her as it was to me. Not only did she become my wedding planner, but over this past year she truly became someone so special to me and my family. My family and friends could not stop complimenting her professionalism, kindness, work ethic, and calming presence. I literally had my mom’s friends texting me asking for her information because they were so blown away by her. Noelle made wedding planning FUN. She made it exciting instead of stressful. Honestly, she makes me want to plan another wedding tomorrow just to work with her again. I’m truly going to miss our hours-long meetings spent perfecting every little detail because it all paid off in the most unbelievable way. I can confidently say my wedding would NOT have been what it was without her. She gave me the wedding of my dreams and more, and I will forever be grateful that I trusted her to guide me through one of the biggest moments of my life. I truly believe one day I’ll see her planning celebrity weddings because her talent is genuinely on that level. Thank you for everything, Noelle. I would choose you over and over and over again.”

“Where do I even begin? Some people plan weddings. Abibi Bridal created an experience I will treasure for the rest of my life. From the very beginning, they poured their hearts into making sure every detail was perfect. The months leading up to my wedding were filled with organized vendor meetings, detailed planning, personal check-ins, and countless phone calls. Through it all, Abiola became so much more than my wedding planner: she became family. She embraced me like her little sister, celebrated every milestone with me, calmed every anxious moment, and carried my heart as if it were her own. That kind of love cannot be taught; it comes from someone who is truly passionate about what they do. In the days leading up to the wedding, while I was trying to soak in every moment, Abiola and Gloria were already working tirelessly behind the scenes. They contacted every vendor, confirmed timelines, ensured paperwork was completed, and handled every detail before I even had to think about it. Because of them, I had the greatest gift a bride could ask for - peace of mind. Then came July 12. I have never felt so loved, so cared for, and so celebrated. From the moment I woke up, I wasn’t just another bride, I was treated like a queen. Something as simple as having an iced matcha bought for me to calm my nerves spoke volumes. It reminded me that they weren’t just checking off tasks; they were taking care of me. The energy that Abiola, Vanessa, Comfort, Dorcas, and Silvia brought into the room was absolutely contagious. They were full of joy, encouragement, laughter, professionalism, and excellence. They anticipated needs before anyone asked, handled every behind-the-scenes detail with grace, and made sure everything flowed effortlessly. Most importantly, they didn’t just care for me, they made every one of my bridesmaids feel seen, valued, and treated like queens as well. People often say your wedding day flies by because of all the moving parts. Mine didn’t feel stressful because Abibi Bridal carried the weight so my husband and I could simply be present. We laughed, we cried, we worshipped, we celebrated, and we created memories that will last a lifetime because they made sure everything else was taken care of. Their professionalism is unmatched. Their attention to detail is extraordinary. Their kindness is genuine. Their teamwork is beautiful. And the love they have for their couples is something you can feel in every interaction. To Abiola and the entire Abibi Bridal team: thank you for loving us so intentionally. Thank you for serving with excellence. Thank you for making me feel like family. Thank you for giving my husband and me the wedding day we prayed for and dreamed about. If it’s not Abibi Bridal, I don’t want it. July 12 will forever be one of the most beautiful days of my life, not only because I married the love of my life, but because of the incredible women who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make every single moment unforgettable. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We love you, and we will never stop singing your praises.”

“We had a great experience working with Jamie and would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding. Throughout the entire planning process, she was incredibly organized, communicative, and on top of every detail. She kept us on track, coordinated with vendors, answered questions quickly, and helped make what could have been a stressful process feel manageable. We always felt like we knew what was coming next and what we needed to be focused on. One of the things we appreciated most was her ability to understand the vision we had for our wedding and help bring it to life. She had great ideas, provided helpful guidance when decisions needed to be made, and kept everything moving forward. Our wedding day itself came with some major challenges thanks to hurricane-force winds and constantly changing conditions. While it certainly wasn’t the day anyone had planned for, Jamie worked hard to adapt and coordinate all of the moving pieces as plans changed throughout the day. Looking back, we’re especially grateful for all of the work she put in during the months leading up to the wedding. Her organization, communication, vendor coordination, and attention to detail made a huge difference, and we couldn’t have pulled off the wedding we envisioned without her help.”

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. In October 2021, I took a leap of faith and opened my own business! I'll never take for granted being able to work with clients I love, doing what I love. Let’s make your dream wedding a reality!

“Liv was amazing and I cannot recommend her enough! She was so on top of things, and that's coming from my extreme type-A self. If you are looking for someone with a "don't worry, I got this" approach and who delivers, BOOK LIV! Even if you think you have everything accounted for, you don't, but Liv does! Liv truly stepped up for the ceremony to make sure all of our requests happened, even with changes happening the day before. The reception was perfect and Liv made sure our vision became a reality. I brought a lot of extra decor so I'm sure it was not easy to set everything up, but Liv made it happen! I was able to enjoy the day and not fret about details. From venue changes to outfit changes to specifically timed songs to props - everything was coordinated perfectly. We cannot thank Liv enough for our wedding weekend :)”

“Shweta and her team at Allure Affair helped us put on a big, beautiful wedding on a budget (for Boston standards)!

“Valerie planned the most incredible elopement for us in Iceland. And she did it all in under a month! This woman is fabulous and kind and an all around amazing human. She was organized and had back up plans to back up plans. Seriously, if we had any questions, she found time to listen and talk through everything with us. She was even able to procure an entire picnic for us, that was vegan friendly too! She made all of our florals, and got them to the location we were at. I think she's a magician. She certainly made our elopement magical! I highly recommend Valerie for the elopement of your dreams!”
