Hiring Liz to be our day of coordinator was the best decision we could have ever made! Sometimes I think about how things would have gone if we hadn’t hired her and it scares me! She is so detail-oriented and thinks of EVERY thing. The entire day went so smoothly! Despite a few hiccups (which always happen), Liz stayed calm and collected. She handled everything while constantly telling us to enjoy our day. I didn’t even know about ANYTHING going wrong until the day after. Not only is Liz talented and one of the best professionals in the wedding industry that I have had the pleasure of working with, but her attitude and demeanor is something every couple NEEDS on their wedding day. She could sense when I was getting stressed and would always tell me to smile and remind me that this was our day and we needed to enjoy EVERY second of it. She was so encouraging and amazing, not to mention she kept us fed even when we didn’t ask for anything. I highly encourage every couple to hire Liz if you have the chance. You won’t regret it. She is an amazing coordinator, planner, and all around an amazing person🙂 I’m pretty sure my family wants to adopt her 🙂

Both our décor and DJ vendors recommended Liz from Cherished Events by Liz as our Day of Coordinator. We are so glad they did – she’s amazing! My husband and I would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a day of coordinator who is professional, sharp, sweet, has a sense of humor (because you really do need one during a wedding), incredibly organized and a great communicator. Liz handled all our major events and everything ran smoothly. She is very talented at what she does and will be an asset to any wedding. Not a single complaint, Liz! Keep up the great work!

My husband and I heard of Liz through several happy couples and hired Cherished Events by Liz for day of coordination. Since the first day of hiring her a month out from our wedding until our big day, Liz has been amazing! My husband and I are in agreement that hiring Liz was one of our best decisions we made regarding our wedding.
She has been consistently available via text/call/email, accompanied us to our vendor meetings and was a great sounding board through the struggles of wedding planning. We haven’t been married even a month yet and we have already highly recommended her to 2 other couples. Often times i would tell Liz she was like my second brain. She would remember things I would say in passing or ideas I would mention. When meeting with the appropriate vendor, she would bring up those topics and make sure all of our concerns were addressed. I am sure she did plenty behind the scenes that I’m not even aware of! We are so grateful for her help and support on our big day. Having Liz for the day of our wedding really alleviated a great amount of stress for my husband and I and I think that is a wonderful gift that we can’t thank her enough for!

Liz was our Day of Coordinator and she was amazing! She started a month out from the day of and was very active in our meetings and planning. She let us to do our thing but had great input and stayed on top of things as the day got closer. She made our lives easier because we were so busy with other events and work. She made sure all of our vendors knew what was happening on the big day and made sure everyone got to where they needed to be. She didn’t just embrace us as her clients but as a friend. She made sure we, the Bride and Groom, as well as our immediate families were not troubled with anything that day. We had two ceremonies on the same day and if something went wrong, I still don’t know. We are so very thankful for helping us. She’s amazing and I highly recommend her.

Liz was an absolute pleasure to work with!! She planned one of my closest friends’ weddings and did a fabulous job all while being incredibly friendly and smiling the whole time. That is when I knew she would be perfect to work with. She is somehow professional at the same time as being able to make you feel like she has known you forever. Liz was always available to answer questions or meet as needed and was always very prompt in her responses. One thing I really liked about her was that she was always very respectful of everyone she worked with (including our families and vendors) even under stressful situations. She easily handled a few last minute issues that came up the week of the wedding and kept telling me to not worry about it so I am really glad she was there. She did a wonderful job making sure our wedding went smoothly and made sure all of our vendors knew their parts as well. She is incredibly detail-oriented and organized and just very on top of things! We would recommend Liz for anyone’s wedding planning needs without hesitation!

Reflecting back on the wedding planning process,we have NO idea how we would have done this without Liz! From the very beginning,Liz was there to schedule meetings,negotiate for us,voice our opinions to vendors and just to vent to when wedding planning got a little stressful…but honestly there wasn’t too much venting because Liz pretty much handled everything which kept the stress level to a minimum. Even our families loved Liz and thought she was great choice! Her genuine and bubbly personality made us feel like we were talking and hanging out with one of our best friends,not just our wedding planner! We are beyond greatful for the role she played in making our big day happen and think she was the best decision we made while planning this wedding.Liz,thanks for making #822aDreamComeTrue:)

One of the best decisions Lejoe and I made for our wedding was hiring Liz. Lejoe and I had less than a year to plan a wedding. Since I used to be a wedding coordinator myself, I thought surely we wouldn’t need a wedding planner. Boy was a I WRONG!

While trying to plan for our wedding, there were so many questions and dilemmas that Lejoe and I just couldn’t deal with ourselves. Finally,with one month until our wedding, we hired Liz. She was FABULOUS! Anytime we had a question, concern, or random idea, she was just a phone call away. During the final month, she attended every single final meeting with us and made sure everything was set to be perfect. She asked questions that I didn’t even think to ask. She was so on top of our wedding that in the end I was asking her what I had confirmed months ago. She even called my makeup artists and hairstylists at 6 AM to make sure they were awake and on their way to my house. She arrived at our wedding venue in the wee hours of morning to make sure the set up was correct. When little things went wrong on the wedding day, she quickly diffused the situations and handled it professionally. My husband Lejoe and I actually ate and drank our signature drinks on our wedding day—something that almost everyone tells me they never got to do on their wedding day! (Actually Liz even brought Lejoe seconds….my husband loves to eat.)

I cannot say this enough: even if you think you know what your doing when it comes to wedding planning, you need a planner like Liz. If you want to enjoy your wedding day, be stress free, and everything to run smoothly and professionally, hire Liz! She is so attentive, reliable, down to earth, and organized. She truly believes every client should experience the best day of their lives with their wedding and you can see this in her work.

Lejoe and I were fortunate enough to have an amazing wedding planner. We received so many compliments on our wedding, especially on how organized it was. We have Liz to thank for that. Liz, thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication, our wedding day was a dream come true!

There are so many decisions that a bride, groom, and their families have to make when planning a wedding. I think one of the best decisions we made, if not the best, was choosing Cherished Events by Liz for our planning needs. Liz was referred to me by a good friend, and once Liz and I chatted over Skype I felt incredibly comfortable with her and confident in her abilities.

My husband and I wanted to have a fun, well-organized, and beautiful series of events for our wedding which reflected us and our families coming together, while also incorporating his family, and with plenty of explanations for our friends and families who were attending either a South Asian or South Asian Fusion wedding for the first time. My Husband is American, and I’m Indian American. We wanted to cater to my huge Indian family yet keep it open and inviting to our other guests from all over the place. We knew this would be no easy task, but Liz was more than up to this challenge.

Liz was all over this from day one. She was always accessible via email, phone, and text, understood the need for things to run timely, and helped with the details that would make our families more comfortable with the mix of traditions. She made sure that we had final meetings not only with major vendors, but with our officiants, an incredibly detailed timeline, and touch points with everyone involved. At our final vendor meetings, Liz was an advocate for us, ensuring that we were putting things in place with, as she says, a WOW FACTOR! She also made sure we had a walkthrough of the wedding ceremony with our families and wedding party so that everyone knew where to go and what to do during the baraat and entry into the ballroom, which was a key factor in making sure the morning of our wedding ceremony flowed smoothly.

Furthermore, Liz went the extra mile and came to my house the day of the Puja and pithi to meet my in-laws and my extended family to make sure they knew who she was and to feel comfortable asking her any questions. This is already beyond the scope of her duties. On top of this, Liz happily took things off my plate when things got hectic – this included proofreading the final seating chart, printing out my vows for the civil ceremony, and making sure my bridesmaid created “Reserved” sign in with the color, fonts and design we had incorporated everywhere else.
During the actual events, it felt like Liz was an extension of our family. She was completely running the show and making sure everything was moving forward, but always with a smile on her face. I think she has some secret superpower because there were a few times I thought she must have been three places at once!
Above all, the events were all perfect. We continue to receive loads of compliments on the décor, the food, and just well everything flowed. Some of our guests even said that our wedding was one of the best organized weddings they have been to! Additionally, many of our vendors, even those who have worked with her previously, complimented us on what a pleasure she is to work with. These are the synergies that truly make an event come together: when all folks involved are able to be happy and do the best they can do. Liz made sure to harness this energy from everyone involved.

Above all, Liz singlehandedly tied together all the different pieces: our different cultures, our mixed ceremony, our families, along with our vendors , and made sure it was the best weekend of our lives. Working with Liz is like working with a super detail-oriented cousin or a sister whose sole job it is to make sure you have the best wedding possible. I adore her, and would recommend her to anyone needing a wedding planner!

Joe and I had the most perfect wedding day and we couldn’t have had it without Liz. She was very organized, calm and attentive. Prior to the wedding day, she was reliable, responsive and patient throughout the process. Liz was extremely helpful in meetings and asked questions that we wouldn’t know to ask. We really appreciated her expertise. She provided her knowledge of the industry and was a great consultant. We also appreciated her timeliness when it came to meetings and always ensured we were the ones making the decisions, not the vendors. Additionally, she is very detailed oriented and available at any time of the day.
Our wedding day was literally the best day of our lives – it wouldn’t have happened so perfectly without Liz.

Me and Jason got married on 10/25th of this year and I wanted to share a little bit about my experience with Liz by Cherished Events. Since I’ve been living in Chicago for a very long time I didn’t know much about Houston. Since Jason and I were living far apart from one another it was hard planning the wedding on our own. Thats were Liz from Cherished Events came into play.

She gave helped me with phone numbers, getting better quotes, and giving me many options. She was always available by a text or a phone call. She talked to all my vendors, went venue hunting with us, and also put up with our tardiness and made sure we were on time with everything.

She has been a great help throughout the process. Me and Jason would suggest getting Liz as your wedding planner to any couple for a stress free wedding day. She made our day a special one and Thank you Liz for that.

She is a great person with a very bubbly personality and passion for her work. Way to go Liz. Thank you again for making our wedding special.

We want to take a moment to thank Liz for all the hard work she put in to make our wedding a great success! She handled everything for us in the weeks leading up to the wedding and made sure all of the vendors were on the same page as us. With her help, the vision we had for our wedding came true! Liz is very professional, punctual, organized and good at what she does. With her help, we were able to enjoy our wedding knowing that all of the details were taken care of by her. It was a pleasure working with her and we definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!

I first got a feel of how hard-working Liz was when I saw her run the show for one of my best friend’s weddings. So it was only natural for me to shoot an email to Liz to check her availability as soon as my (now) husband proposed. We hired Liz for the full planning package and got exactly what we expected, if not more. Liz was showed up to every vendor meeting, promptly responded to emails, and was organized, dependable and dedicated throughout the entire process (not to mention, she would always show up full of energy and with a bright smile on her face). For a Type A, detail oriented bride like myself, this made all the difference in the world. Even when Liz was in India for her own wedding, she was easily accessible through email. (I think this says it all as far as how passionate she is about what she does and her commitment to her clients.)

As could be expected for a large Indian wedding, there were a number of unexpected hitches that came up especially in the couple of days preceding our wedding and I could go on and on about the fires that Liz helped put out. So if you are questioning whether you need a wedding planner (especially for the day of), you most definitely do! Liz handled all of the chaos, changes and last minute requests calmly and decisively. Even more importantly she kept me calm and put my mind at ease because I knew that I could trust her to handle things.

Overall, Liz is an extremely talented individual and having her as our planner felt like one of our closest friends was helping us plan the wedding. On the big day, she took care of everything so that we could just sit back and enjoy our moment. I would highly recommend Liz to anyone planning a wedding in the Houston area. I could not be happier that we chose Cherished Events!!
