Grand Engagements

I could not have asked for a better wedding planner! Gloria definitely exceeded our expectations, and we knew we were in great hands! From the moment we hired Gloria (over a year before our wedding), I felt more at ease with planning my wedding. I knew I could trust her and look to her to help me make important, huge decisions. My planning process was stress free because of Gloria. I emailed Gloria quite often with questions, and she was always super quick to respond! If I'd text or call her, I'd immediately hear back. I always knew she was there for me, and that was a huge comfort. She had such great recommendations for everything from the vendors to the decorations. When I mentioned her name to vendors we were considering, they had nothing but wonderful things to say about her and reassured me that we were in great hands! On our wedding day, she was just as awesome...and so was her team! She made sure that everything ran smoothly and that we were always comfortable and happy. At one point in the evening she had to rearrange the timeline because of a guest passing out, and Gloria handled it so calmly and had the new timeline worked out within minutes. She never let off the feeling of being stressed or made us feel like there was any sort of problem. Her number one priority was US, making sure that we were enjoying our day and that everything panned out perfectly for us! Our wedding day (and planning experience) would not have been the same without Gloria. She gave us such piece of mind, and that meant the world to the both of us. She and her team are so awesome, I really can't say it enough. I don't know what I would have done without her!

Gloria and her team at Grand Engagements define what it means to flawlessly design and execute an extremely detailed occasion with every appearance of ease and grace.
Through suggesting vendors and negotiating contracts, sharing her experiences and exquisite taste, and managing the day of, Gloria and her team constantly showed the utmost professionalism yet still fit perfectly into our family environment. It was such a blessing and relief to have Gloria and her team orchestrate our special day in order to allow myself and my family to enjoy and soak up every breathtaking moment. With her sincere joy and excitement for the brides that she works with, it is easy to see why Gloria is so talented at what she does.

On our honeymoon we couldn't stop talking about all of our favorite details and relive our favorite moments. When we returned we were happily overwhelmed to find the same feelings from all of our guests! For months all our family could talk about is how romantic, elegant, intimate and comfortable the wedding felt and how effortless and smooth the entire evening went. What a special thing that have everyone look back at your wedding with such love and fondness. Thank you Gloria for making our dream wedding come true!

I was referred to Gloria by one of my friends and I can honestly say that hiring Gloria was THE BEST decision we made for our wedding.

I booked Grand Engagement’s “Classic” package and from the moment I hired Gloria, I felt like she was beside me every step of the way – providing us with vendor recommendations, answering all our questions (and we had tons!) and giving us valuable feedback, providing us with creative input for our venue design/layout and asking all the necessary questions to make sure no detail (big or small) was overlooked.

Even though Gloria has many clients, she has this ability to make you feel like you’re her top priority and only client. Her prompt response times were impressive. Throughout the 9 months of wedding planning, Gloria was always a pleasure to work with – she is so sweet and personable, incredibly patient, very organized and displays the utmost professionalism.

In the final weeks leading up to the wedding, I started to feel the pressure, but Gloria was such a calming force. She created a detailed timeline, contacted all my vendors and took care of all the set-up details. On our wedding day, Gloria and her team made sure everything flowed seamlessly and looked beautiful. My husband and I were able to really just enjoy our wedding day, have fun and just soak it up and take it all in. It really was, the best day of our lives, and I know it’s because we had Gloria there to manage everything! I found out after the wedding that there were some issues with one of our vendors, but Gloria completely shielded us from the drama so that we could enjoy our special day.

To all you brides-to-be out there, if there is any advice I could give you, it would be to hire Gloria! It was honestly the best money spent on our wedding – and you will get SO much more than what you pay, I promise. Also, Gloria is one of the nicest and kindest people I know and will put so much care and effort into your special day.

Gloria, thank you so much for making our wedding day so perfect. You are truly the best at what you do! Our wedding day was even better than we could have hoped and we thank you for making it so special and...

Hiring Grand Engagements was one of the best decisions I ever made, period. I hired her within five minutes of meeting her and never looked back. Gloria is one of the most amazing people I have ever met and feel honored that we were able to work with her and her team. Our wedding went like clockwork thanks to her; I don't even want to think about what it would have been like without her! She made the day feel like a dream, you know...the kind where everything goes right, you feel and look beautiful and everything falls into place. Her team is organized, on top of everything, and she always is watching out for you. Really, what more could you ask for?

Her style is gorgeous but she is flexible too and really good at seeing different visions of different people; and then helping to execute them. She is wonderful at managing crazy families, their needs, and making sure that everyone stays on track! Definitely needed for any wedding.

I cannot reommend Grand Engagements enough!!

Gloria from Grand Engagements is not only a distinguished wedding planner and master organizer, she also becomes a trusted friend and honest confidant through the wedding planning process. I always felt like I was her only bride, even though she had many more. Her focus on me and my wedding eased my tension and she always found a way to solve any little bump in the road that came our way. She always gave me her sound opinion and helped me explore what I really wanted to see on my wedding day. Then, she helped make it come true. I can't say enough about her. From the second she stepped in, wedding planning became a breeze. Thank you, Gloria!

Gloria at Grand Engagements truly is amazing at what she does. I know I would not have the wedding I did if it weren't for her. She is so helpful and extremely organized, which is so important when I was looking for a planner. Not only was her service outstanding, she is so much fun to work with. Gloria, thank you for everything!

I love how much having a wedding planner ended up being better than I could have imagined! Being busy with work and deadlines, a lot of planning process was made easy for me. Gloria did so much in helping me find the right vendors and having the wedding I have always wanted. Thank you so much for giving me such a perfect day!

I have to admit I was at first hesitant about getting a wedding coordinator, I thought I could plan my wedding on my own, with the help of friends and family. Once I started, however, I realized there's was more to it than I expected. I was so relieved when I found Gloria, from Grand Engagements. She quickly took over and handled everything. She set up all the appointments with the florist, the catering company, the venue for both the ceremony and reception, etc. The day of the wedding she was there every step of the way, always very attentive and responsive to all my needs and must haves for the wedding. I not only felt that I had a wedding coordinator by my side, but also a friend. I have to say her services were irreplaceable, I was able to just enjoy my wedding knowing everything had or was being taken care of. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, better than I could have ever imagined.
