    Dramatically Simple Events was a dream to work with for our daughter's wedding. From our very first interaction, Vicki was thorough, prompt, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the planning process. She is detail-oriented, amazing at bringing our vision to life, and maintaining a calm, professional demeanor throughout the day. Vicki attended to every detail, allowing me to truly enjoy our daughter's special day without worrying about a thing. She and her assistant carried out every aspect flawlessly, ensuring the wedding day was exactly as we had envisioned. I cannot recommend Dramatically Simple Events highly enough - they are true professionals who made the day unforgettable.

    As a wedding DJ I work with a lot of planners and coordinators. It was clear Vicki was committed to the couple the entire planning process. She joined the consultation call and asked the right questions to make sure all their basis were covered. The day of was so great and so elegant with ease. The couple's personality was bale to shine in their personalized way DJ Darius Groove on Hyde Street DJs

    Vicky was truly the MVP of our wedding day! From start to finish, she was an incredible communicator — organized, calm, and always one step ahead. She kept me on track with tasks in the months leading up to the wedding without ever making it feel stressful. I always felt at ease knowing she had everything under control. She handled a particularly difficult venue owner with total professionalism and grace, protecting our experience and making sure we never had to worry. On the day of the wedding, she struck the perfect balance — checking in at just the right moments but never pulling me away from the joy of the day. Vicky made everything run smoothly behind the scenes so we could be fully present. I can honestly say she was the most valuable part of our wedding, and I can’t recommend her enough!

My mission was to protect your peace no matter the challenge. ;) Going to miss planning and please say hi anytime. Can't wait to get updates on your journey together. Lots of hugs and positive vibes, Vicki
