Joyful Weddings & Events

Bre and Courtney brought it all together. 2 months before my wedding I decided I really needed a wedding planner. They came in and REALLY helped me out. Courtney and Bre spent an entire day with me at the hotel to map out the rentals, create a rough itinerary and organize the vendors. They are reasonably priced and completely sweet.

We hired Courtney as our "Day-of-Coordinator" and she was fabulous! In the weeks/days leading up to the wedding we had a lot of correspondence and she was always quick to respond to my questions, additions, updates, etc. Anytime I told Courtney a detail I knew that she had taken note of it and would not miss it on the day of the wedding. As a result of her conscientiousness leading up to our wedding day, on the day of the wedding I was completely foot-loose and fancy-free! Not a care in the world! I literally did not think about one logistical detail that day. I simply enjoyed the people and the beautiful day and the awesome occasion! Hiring Courtney is a great decision. She is extremely professional and reliable and at the same time a genuinely nice person who will get things done without being pushy, stressed out or overbearing. Her calm presence is definitely a great attribute of hers and makes her great at what she does.

Courtney is amazing. I probably would not have heard about her if she didn't go to my church! She made my day go as smoothly as possible. Everything was on time. To the T. She set it up beautifully, answered all my questions and then some, had super helpful meetings and is a genuinely beautiful person. I love her.

We would have been completely lost without Courtney. My husband and I wanted to have a destination in Palm Springs at a venue that didn't have its own catering or any recommended vendors. We also wanted a very unique 1960's vintage look and we were on a tight budget. Courtney made everything happen: she found us vendors, designed all the decor, took care of the florals and lighting, she brought our vision to life making it cohesive, stylish and affordable. She helped us with so many things along the way and was great about responding to emails, making appointments and keeping us on track. But most of all we were so grateful for her being there the the day of the wedding. Again, the joyful team took care of everything, setting up to our specifications, laying out all of the decor items, keeping us on schedule. I really don't know how we could have pulled it off without them. It all turned out great and I've gotten so many compliments on how fun and stylish the wedding was. I can't thank her enough for making our wedding so wonderful and helping us with all the planning.

Without Courtney, I think I may have gone crazy! She was so wonderful and really helped me bring my vision for our wedding to life. I really felt like she understood the look I was going for and on top of that had a lot of really creative ideas and suggestions that were amazing additions to the day.

On the day of the wedding, Courtney and her team did such a fantastic job! There were a few small snafus and I never even knew about them until a few days afterwards when friends and family mentioned them to me. That was really wonderful as the last thing you want is to be notified about problems on your wedding day. Courtney took care of all of that and still managed to be there for me at every turn checking to make sure I was doing ok, or asking if I needed anything. On top of that, whenever I had an issue (a rip in my dress, forgetting my garters in the bridal cottage etc.) she fixed everything right away.

In addition, she is an absolute delight as a person, a complete gem! So sweet and fun to work with! We booked her really early on, so I got to work with her for well over a year and she never failed to impress me.

I would highly recommend Courtney to any bride looking for a coordinator. I wouldn't have wanted to work with anyone else!

I absolutely love Courtney Toney! She did an amazing job helping me plan my daughters wedding from 1500 miles away. I could not have done it without her. She helped me find vendors, set them up, and even helped me come up with great ideas for decorations and helped execute them. We didn't need a full wedding planner on help with reception and she totally came through with everything she said she would. She has great ideas and a great personality. Easy to work with and helped us pull off an amazing event.

Courtney is an amazing wedding coordinator. My wedding was absolutely PERFECT!! Everytime we had to do something big, she was right there with anything I may have needed. She was easy to get a hold of prior, and got back to me very quickly. I recommend her because she is thorough, organized, and knows exactly what she is doing. She helped my day be perfect!

Courtney at Joyful Weddings and Events was a delight to work with. My husband and I had a relatively short engagement of six months and we both have really busy schedules. Courtney stepped in and really eased the burden of planning and helped to pull together our vision for the wedding. She worked with the caterer when I got overwhelmed, sat in on meetings with our florist and helped me make tweaks. She provided me with recommendations for other vendors and went on the hunt for the perfect chocolate brown linens. The day of she made sure the ceremony and reception went off without a hitch. When I first saw the reception room it took my breath away. It was just perfect. She helped keep us mostly on time all night long and just allowed me to enjoy myself. We had the perfect wedding. One of my bridesmaids is getting married next year and kept Courtney's schedule for the wedding as an example to use for own! Thanks Courtney!

I contacted Courtney after finding Joyful Weddings and Events online. My wedding was only a few months away and I had done everything myself up to that point. Needless to say I was really stressed out. She came in and took the reigns and made my life so much easier. She handled all the vendors and made sure everything was on track, developed a timeline for my big day etc. My wedding could not have been more perfect and I really have her and her team to thank! They even went to my hotel room during the reception and decorated it with tons of rose petals and candles so I could surprise my new husband after the wedding!Not to sound cheesy but my dreams really came true! On top of that I enjoyed my wedding and didn't stress out at all!!!!Victoria Wilger

I have had the pleasure of working with Courtney of Joyful Weddings and Events several times. She has an excellent sense of style, a work ethic second to none, is extremely organized (which makes my life as a wedding videographer much more efficient) and is a very warm and friendly gal. She always has a bright smile on her face. You can not go wrong by choosing Courtney for your event planning and design.
