Cincy Event Planning

Lindsey and her crew were absoutely fabulous! Great choice!!!

Julie and her team were a valuable resource for choosing local vendors that I trusted and did a great job. Also, on the day of, she was a great point person to have whenever I needed something. I highly recommend Cincy Event Planning

When I chose Cincy Event Planning I had shopped and met with several planners in the area and found I really clicked with CEP. In my first meeting with Julie she asked me questions about details that I hadn't even thought of. She also reassured me that a few of my non-traditional ceremony processional choices were my own and that they would work well with my style. I felt very confident leaving that meeting that we were going to have a beautiful day! Fast forward to rehearsal night, Julie kept the ball rolling for the evening so we could get to the good part of relaxing, enjoying our friends and family and of course eating! She even helped my fiance(husband) pull off a surprise for me! On the day of the wedding CEP was fantastic they helped keep time for everyone so not one of us felt rushed. My family, friends and guests were amazed at how calm and rested I looked. The bridal party said this was the most stress free wedding they'd been a part of! If anything behind the scenes went wrong I didn't know about it because Julie and CEP took care of it the way they knew they were authorized to do. It really was one of the best days of my life!

I booked CEP a year before my wedding and they were invaluable to me. I couldn't believe how much I needed them and how quick they were to respond to my questions. When the meetings and day of stuff came along they were incredibly helpful, professional, and fun. Lindsey ended up working my day of, as Julie was due with a new baby the week of my wedding, and I never heard boo about any problems for the whole day. The two women had worked together before the day of to make sure that whoever worked the wedding was ready. Lindsey helped decorate the church, get all the guys ready and in place, played "babysitter" to a sobbing niece while the usher/dad walked down the aisle, and she even played bouncer for us so that we could have a few minutes to ourselves after the ceremony. Everything went smoothly and I recommend CEP to every bride I meet. I even asked for some of their business cards to hand out!

I hired Cincy Event Planning to coordinate my ceremony. In retrospect, I wish I had hired them for the whole day. Julie made everything run so smoothly, thought of everything and really made me feel calm. She did everything from bustling my dress, teaching me how to pee in said dress, sneaking in during the ceremony and placing the glass for breaking (that my maid of honor had accidentally forgotten) without anyone noticing and helping me figure out the order and set up for our very untraditional bridal party and ceremony. After she left I commented to my husband that we should have asked her if we could pay her to stay the rest of the night. The peace of mind she provided was HUGE and I so appreciate it. Not to mention that their prices were the most reasonable I found for the services they offer!

Hiring Julie and CEP was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. I was a pretty active bride during the 15 months of planning, but with several big events occurring during the months leading up to the wedding and being an out-of-state bride, I knew I would need help getting the details all together. While I originally only planned on needing Julie day-of, her advice and recommendations in the months leading up to the wedding were invaluable. She completely handled the rentals for me, even going so far as requesting samples and working with our invitation company to ensure we had the right colors. At the end of the night where a taxi failed to show up for my parents, Paige (a superb CEP intern) drove my parents and wedding gifts back to the hotel. My husband and I were truly able to live in the moment and take in every detail of our wedding thanks to Julie. We cannot thank CEP enough for helping to make our wedding dreams a reality.

From start to finish, Lindsey Bayer with CEP was a delight to work with and gave us an incredible four day wedding weekend that exceeded our wildest dreams. Our wedding was in Pinehurst, NC - we live in Atlanta, she is based in Cincinnati - yet everything came into place and was honestly so beautiful and spectacular - our guests have actually been sending thank you cards to us for inviting them to be a part of such a wonderful weekend - all thanks to Lindsey and CEP. Lindsey was involved from the very beginning and helped select the vendor for our save the dates/invitations/programs, planned all of the florals/decor, worked hand in hand with all of our vendors - and really made the entire year of planning stress free and fun for us, we feel so lucky to have worked with her. Our wedding consited of 6 events for 70 - 150 guests and each event was full of surprises and unique personal touches that made us and our guests feel like we couldn't have thought of anything else, wouldn't have done anything differently - it was truly an amazing experience and we owe it all to Lindsey and CEP. I would recommend them to anyone, anytime, for a wedding or event anywhere - they are truly the best!

CEP is absolutely wonderful. Julie and her team are extremely professional. I used CEP for my reception only and they took care of everything from time line logistics at the reception to coordinating with the photographer, band and reception venue. CEP eliminated a lot of stress and I was able to enjoy our reception. I highly recommend CEP to anyone.

CEP is absolutely amazing. Julie and her team are extremely professional. I would recommend CEP to anyone.

Julie and Lindsey are a pleasure to work with. They have wonderful vendor suggestions and are able to help with any size issue during the wedding planning process. Lindsey worked with me day of and I can tell you I always found her when I needed her but she stayed behind the scenes. It was a valuable resource to have and I would hire them again in an instant.

Julie at Cincy Event Planning was wonderful. She was my day of coordinator (but it is actually more like a week of coordinator). She took care of all the final confirmations as well as helping with decoration ideas and timeline. I also used her great stash of glassware for my candles. She was so helpful on the day of the wedding that my husband and I didn't worry about a thing! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!

This was the only problem we had. I had hired a DOC to help make the day stress free but at 1:30pm when Julie was supposed to arrived I got a phone call instead that she was sick and would not be coming but Lindsey would be there at 2. She had assured me that she had filled Lindsey in on everything and there would be no problems. Well all night my mom and dad were being asked were things went and how things should be set up. My mom set up the guest book table because they did not know how it was supposed to be set up and kept asking her all night how things should be and were they should be. They then were not going to pack up all the candles but my mom asked them to do it and just blow them out. They blew them out all at once and set off the fire alarms and the metal shields came down and covered the beautiful stained glass windows. Although it was a funny memory that the CFD showed up at my wedding it wasn’t exactly what I wanted. A couple cards were miss placed it was not stress free. Also during the planning Julie was late to both vendor meeting that she was supposed to attend and I felt rushed. She packed her things up while we were still talking to the vendor and I felt like that she just wanted to leave. Both myself and my parents felt that we were booked for some extra money and that they did not do what we wanted them to and it was not worth the money. I was so upset that Julie canceled and I thought I would have an email apologizing or something when I got home from the honeymoon but I have not heard anything. I do understand that people get sick but I find it fishy that she was fine at the rehearsal the night before and then she goes to a wine tasting the night before (according to facebook) and then she is sick the day of the wedding. I was really disappointed with the day of services and maybe it would have been better had Julie been there like planned, but at this point it was not worth the money that was spent and I would not recommend them.

Cincy Event Planning- in my opinion- are MARVELOUS! Jules was so helpful during the planning stages of my wedding by providing intimate details on each vendor and guidance on the event. The design and vision that I wanted and created was literally brought to life the day of the wedding thanks to this ladies- WOW - it brought tears to my eyes- simply beautiful. Not only are they talented event planners but they are wonderful, loving woman and mothers! They played with the children and danced along with them- with all of us- through out the evening- these ladies are FUN! We cannot express enough how fortunate and thankful we are for everything Jules + Lindsey did for us - they made our dream into a reality that will forever be a treasured memory for all of us.

Cincy Event Planning was a great vendor. While I don't think we had any major crises that weekend, I wouldn't have known because Lindsey took care of everything. It's well worth the money to have the peace of mind and know that everything will look the way you have always dreamed. I really can't imagine spending all the time and money planning a wedding and NOT having at least a DOC to execute all your hard work and plans. There are just too many last minute things that no bride should be worried about when you're trying to enjoy and savor every moment of the big day. Lindsey was very helpful in the last few weeks of planning by keeping me on track with what needed to be done. She took copies of all the contracts and contact info for each of my vendors and confirmed with them the week of the wedding so I didn't have to. I also met with her the week of and gave her several boxes/totes of decorations, programs, candles, candy bar supplies, etc. and it was all out of my hands from that point on. She came to the rehearsal on Fri night and kept things moving and gave orders so that I didn't need to. On the wedding day, she spent a couple hours setting up the reception and then was at the church to decorate church, help all the bridal party and family who had questions, etc. and I am so glad we had her around.

Hiring a Day Of Coordinator was not something my husband and I anticipated during the wedding planning process, but we are so very happy we booked CEP for our wedding! Hiring a coordinator was, by far, the best money we spent on the entire wedding! Not only did CEP set our mind at ease months before the big day, but Julie and Lindsey helped coordinate our entire event into a gorgeous and orderly day. The skills they possess are priceless and we are so glad they were able to be a part of our big day! We will definitely recommend their services to all current and future brides.

Julie at Cincy Event Planning saved our lives! She took care of everything the day of... all we did was show up and get married! She was the best money we spent.

Julie at Cincy Event Plannin was amazing. She was so easy to work with and did everything we needed from her and more. She was prompt, profesional, friendly, fast, and at the wedding you didnt ever know she was there, but everything got done!

Hiring Cincy Event Planning was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding and can't imagine how stressed we would have been if they had not been there for Rehersal and the Wedding.

Julie is amazing. She made my wedding day more than I thought it could be. I booked her "day of" services and the only mistake that I made was not hiring her for the whole process. Book Cincy Event Planning and book them now, you will not regret it.

Lindsey took all of the worry out of our wedding day. We had a ton of "stuff" to do, to take, to set up the day of... and she made it happen. Special note, she made all of this happen just weeks before delivering her first baby! My husband, Steve and I are so grateful. Lindsey's guided our rehearsal with ease and brevity. She managed our vendors with grace and patience. And she allowed a bride to... well, be a very happy bride! Looking back, it simply would not have been the same wonderful day without Cincy Event Planning. With many, many thanks - Steve & Jennifer Millman

Thanks for making our wedding go off without a hitch!

My wedding day-of coordinator was Lindsey Bayer with Cincy Event Planning and she was outstanding. She was flexible, responsive, and extremely professional. She had great recommendations and I valued her input. She has great taste. I didn't have to worry about a thing on my wedding day, and neither did my family. I was recently in a friend's wedding who did not have a coordinator, and her mother and bridesmaids had to do a lot of tasks on the wedding day which stressed everyone out, especially the bride. Take my advice, use a day-of coordinator, it is worth the $500 or so. And moreover, call Lindsey at Cincy Event Planning! She and her husband even brought all my leftover alcohol and presents to my house afterwards. Above and beyond. Plus she is really cool. You won't regret it!

My husband and I were so fortunate to be able to book Julie for day-of-coordination. Despite the fact that we only booked her as a DOC, I felt as though I could always count on her to give me honest feedback and advice throughout the planning process. She was such a valuable resource!Julie and her associate had such great personalities and were able to put us at ease on such a busy and overwhelming day of our lives. As a result of her attention to detail and professionalism, my husband and I were able to enjoy our wedding day : )

Julie did a great job on our wedding. She worked well with the vendors and kept things moving. She was even my stand in groom when he was late for rehearsal. She took all the ideas I had in my head and helped shape them into a beautiful ceremony. I appreciate all of her hard work.

I really can not imagine my wedding day without Julie and Cincy Event Planning. From our first meeting together, she totally put me at ease. I had read many great things about her on the Knot and she definitely lived up to all of my expectations. I wanted someone to handle the rehearsal and day of events so I wouldn't have to worry about anything or lift a finger and she didn't disappoint. She took care of everything for me- handling the marriage certificate, paying vendors, making sure we had bottled water at the church for the wedding party- everything you could imagine. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is considering hiring a Wedding Planner/DOC. Defintely the best decision I made through the whole process! It was money well spent and I would do it again in a second!

Julie was a lifesaver throughout the whole planning process of our wedding. On our wedding day (and for our rehearsal) I don't know what we would have done without her. She created a missing bridesmaid bouquet out of extra hydrangeas so that I didn't know about the problem until after it was fixed, let me use her votives at the reception site, and helped my mother in law plan the rehearsal dinner as well. We chose one of her bigger packages, which was WELL worth the cost! Highly recommend!!!

Lindsey and Julie were wonderful to work with. Everything that they set up and coordinated was great and exactly how I wanted it to be.

We hired Lindsay as our rehearsal and day-of wedding planner. At my sisters' weddings, we were at the reception hall the afternoon of their weddings decorating (and cleaning bathrooms in one instance) and it was so wonderful to be able to turn all of that over to Lindsay. She took care of everything and we could just concentrate on our wedding day while Lindsay took care of all of the details, some of which, I'm sure, we didn't even know about. I recommend that ALL brides hire at least a day-of planner to take care of wedding-day details and I would highly recommend Lindsay. Definitely one of the best things we spent money on for the wedding.

Very on top of things. Quick to respond - great service to have on hand!

I worked with Lindsey from Cincy Event Planning, she was a doll to work with and radiated confidence, which put my mind at ease knowing that last minute/day of details were safe in her hands. Pre wedding Cincy Event Planning was always prompt and helpful, always willing to take the extra step in making my day truly special. It was so nice knowing that myself, my mother, my family & friends wouldn't have to work on my wedding day.

Great to work with. Worth every penny!

Lindsey was amazing! First of all, she came to my house for a pre-wedding consult. It was so nice to be able to meet with her in my home when everything was so crazy before the wedding. I used her for day of wedding coordinating services at The Westin downtown Cincinnati. She showed up on the wedding day and just took over. I didn't have to worry about a thing and when something came up that we hadn't planned, she found a solution. I would recommend her and her company to anyone looking for personalized attention and superb service.

I received a special for booking with Cincy Event Planning on theknot.com early in their work. Their prices are very affordable for all of their packages and they offer quite a variety. Julie really saved me when vendors fell through for the wedding and Lindsey was a huge help on the day of. I recommend them to everyone every chance I get!

Julie with Cincy Event Planning made our day seamless. Everyone kept telling my how calm and laid back I was throughout our wedding day and it was because I knew Julie would take are of anything that went wrong. She provided great insight and organization leading up to the wedding day. She made my husband and I feel so at ease about the entire planning process. By the time the wedding came around she fit in like family. We had six little wedding dudes in our bridal party ranging in age from 3-7. Julie helped coach them down the aisle during the rehearsal and pumped them up when it was time for the ceremony, they were so calm they loved every minute of being involved. The care and attention she gave to them speaks volumes about her demeanor and personality! Julie is a gem. We are grateful to have found her.

Julie and her team made our wedding day run smoothly. I didn't want to have the caterer, florist, DJ, etc., coming to me with questions on my wedding day (or bugging my mom or bridesmaids for answers). In our meetings before the wedding she gathered all the contact info for my vendors and she made all the final verifications with them. She helped set our day-of schedule/timeline and everything ran on schedule. She even carried around vases of water to keep our bouquets hydrated & in the shade when we weren't using them for photos--something I never would have thought of, but it was very helpful for our hydrangeas, which can tend to wilt quickly. Great service all around!

Lindsey was our coordinator and did a fantastic job. She was so on top of every detail and made me feel completely at ease. She helped out with the rehearsal and made sure the next day went smooth. She focused on the details even remembering at the end of the night to get rid of all the center pieces for the guests to enjoy in their homes. Very friendly and personable and willing to do as much or as little as I needed.

I cannot put into words how great Julie and Lindsey are. I used them as day of coordinators for my ceremony. They took care of everything, so I could sit back and be the bride and not have to worry about anything. There are so many details that I never even thought of that they made sure came out perfect for my special day. This is one service that I would leave room for in my wedding budget as their services made my day!

Jules was AMAZING! I called her in as a kind of last-minute quarterback after I'd gotten over-extended and extremely frustrated in the final weeks before the wedding. She finalized arrangements with all my vendors, including negotiating a particularly challenging communication issue with my location and finding me a limo on short notice. She made my wedding fun for me again and re-energized me in the planning process. My actual wedding day was PERFECT!! I couldn't have been happier and my guests are still talking about how amazing it was more than a year later.

Julie was an amazing day-of coordinator! She not only helped us stay on track and on time the day of the wedding, she even helped me out before my big day when I had a last minute dress emergency! There was nothing Julie wouldn't do - she set up and took down everything at the church, she changed the floral wristlets to pin-on corsages and she got us a new limo when our first one arrived without air conditioning on a hot August day! Julie was a huge help from start to finish and I would recommend her to any bride who needs a little extra coordination :)

Jules went above and beyond in providing us with the most seemless wedding rehearsal, ceremony, and reception. It was such a relief to have her their orchestrating our event, as it allowed me to take the day in fully. She also provided ideas regarding decorations and did an excellent job of problem solving when issues popped up. This is a worthwhile investment at any budget!

We had Julie from CEP help us with our rehearsal, wedding ceremony and reception. She was a priceless asset to me. Her attention to detail is unmatched. I have known Julie for years and there is no one else I would have trusted to handle my wedding details. She was always right where I needed her. I told her what I needed her to do and she was able to take care of everything while I was able to enjoy my weekend without worries. She has great suggestions, but does not make you feel compelled to do anything that you don’t want. I can’t imagine my wedding without her!

Lindsey was absolutely fantastic! Our wedding day ran so smoothly - as a matter of fact it was perfect. I recommend anyone planning a wedding to get in contact with Cincy Event Planning IMMEDIATELY - their services are invaluable and allowed for myself, my groom, my family and friends, to relax and enjoy the day.

Always on top of it, ready to put out any fire!

Julie's commitment comes through in the details. Nothing is overlooked, and she is clearly committed to the last thread! I always know that working Julie means happy, carefree brides and no last minute surprises.

We have had several great experiences working with Julie, Lindsay and the entire team at Cincy Events Planning. They keep our team posted from start to finish on the whole day. Highly recommend to any bride who wants less stress on their wedding day.

Julie and her crew always work their tails off to create a beautiful, stress-free wedding day for their couples! Her enthusiasm and attention to detail make working with her a pleasure each time we have the opportunity.

After being in this business for 25 years, I have worked with many vendors. Julie and the ladies at Cincy Event Planning are at the top of the list of people I like to see when I show up at an event. Once I know Cincy Event Planning is there, I know things are going to run smoothly. If you are looking for someone to plan and keep your event organized, I wholeheartedly recommend them. As the MC/DJ of an reception, it is important to have a planner who has answers, and they make sure they are prepared for anything. True professionals. If you want your reception to go off without a hitch, look no further than Cincy Event Planning.

Julie and her team are great to work with. They bring a level of calm and professionalism to the chaos of the wedding day and really do a great job of keeping everything moving efficiently. Cincy Event Planning is an easy referral to make as I trust that they care as much about the client as I do and are always willing to do what is necessary to pull off a great event.

I have worked many events with Julie ans she is a treasure. She thinks of all the little nagging details and is always saving the day!

Cincy Event Planning has a wonderful team of ladies who I just adore. What a professional team to have!

Julie and company are wonderful! We've enjoyed working with them, as they are detailed and great at what they do. Working with a professional like Julie certainly makes our job easier, so I can only imagine how it must benefit her clients! Julie is one of our favorite vendors, and we highly recommend her.
