Erica is very professional, patient, easy to work with and always ready to help. She really cares about her clients and it’s obvious in the time she spent with us. She tried everything she could to make our dreams come true on our big day.

Erica was absolutely amazing, we had such a great experience with her! She is very professional, patient, easy to work with and always ready to help. We had some very stressful moments at the final planning stage because of an overseas shipment delay however, Erica was super friendly and supportive, she worked hard with us and strived to get us what we really wanted. Erica really cares about her clients and it’s obvious in the time she spent with us. She tried everything she could to make our dreams come true on our big day. We were amazed by the final results as well as our family and friends.

Erica was not only helpful during our planning journey, she also showed her true value on our wedding day. She created a stress-free and fun wedding day for us. She always had a backup plan for urgent matters, tolerated last minute changes from our end and took action immediately. She was very kind and handled our family and friends perfectly while managing a large vendor team and at the same time guiding the entire wedding party!

In addition, she has all kinds of stuff in her little purse, just like Doraemon the Japanese cartoon. After all, Erica is more like a friend to us now. We highly recommend her!

Intimate white and blush summer wedding at Le Belvedere, Wakefield Quebec with cliffside ceremony

José and I highly recommend this wedding planner as she will be able to tackle anything that comes her way. She prioritizes her clients and allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding day as she took care of all the logistics.

José and I asked for Erica’s aid once we realized that our wedding of 150 would turn into 50 with many restrictions in place due to COVID.

We felt overwhelmed with all the changes and did not know how to make our special day a memorable one.

Little did we know, COVID restriction would continue to sabotage our plans. Thankfully, Erica was able to secure two other venues on short notice to make sure we can keep our wedding date and prevent us from loosing even more money.

In fact, with her help we were able to plan our wedding within 10 days at Le Belvedere and it was magical.

José and I highly recommend this wedding planner as she will be able to tackle anything that comes her way. She prioritizes her clients and allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding day as she took care of all the logistics.

“It was such a delight to work with Erica. Words cannot express how grateful we were to have had Erica’s help! We were so glad we found her! You are the best of the best Erica and we will miss you!”

Bride and Groom | TwentyTwo Westin Ottawa | Kelly Margaret Photography

From beginning to end Erica was always there to help! She is simply an amazing wedding planner. Her organizational skills are impeccable which helped us stay on track planning wise and budget wise. She co-ordinated all the wedding vendors and they were all outstanding.
When COVID-19 happened the wedding was postponed till the summer of 2021. But then, about 1 month before the original date, we decided to go ahead with a smaller, more intimate wedding and Erica had to quickly finalize all the wedding plans…..and she did it! It was beyond perfect! Our vision came to life…..the wedding of our dreams! What a beautiful day it was and the whole process was stress free!
It was such a delight to work with Erica. Words cannot express how grateful we were to have had Erica’s help! We were so glad we found her! You are the best of the best Erica and we will miss you!
