Find a Wedding Planner in Copiague

Gabrielle and her team are my personal heroes. My wedding was at serious risk when we had a nightmare scenario with a different planner. We had just under 2 months left to the wedding and we had very little signed up and booked by that point. We came across Gab by chance through a florist we found independently and what a blessing that was. Our first conversation was such a relief – she clearly knew her stuff and more than anything, she had the best attitude towards what we all anticipated would be a grueling 2 months. A couple days later I remember we had a long text conversation just getting to know each other and I knew I was in good hands. Gab is the kind of person who learns and understands her clients. She gets to know what your likes and dislikes are and takes a lot of pride in her work. It’s that kind of approach and attitude that shined and helped us through the remainder of the wedding planning process. And we had fun doing it – we had group messages where we’d share ideas and also just chat all day. Gab worked around the clock, reaching out to countless vendors for us and connecting us with her very best people, helping us design every last detail, and reassuring us that we were in good hands and everything would be okay. I also can’t over emphasize just how much work it was – she basically planned an entire wedding within two months and we’re continuing to get amazing reviews from our friends and family saying it was the best wedding they’ve ever attended. On the day of as well, she and her team (thank you Paige and Ashley!) were all over everything. Our venue had tight guidelines and as part of that there was extremely little time for set up and break down – but they got it done and did it beautifully. The Wedding Connection team was balancing helping the wedding party with steaming, photos, making sure we were hydrated and happy, while sprinting through set up downstairs. To this day I still don’t know how they did it. They’re a fantastic group of extremely talented and driven women and they’re also the kind of people you will not want to let go of once your wedding is over!

I had my wedding here September 2016, everything was great. We booked them in March 2014 and in 2015 they went under new management, remodeling our room upstairs. We met with a new person who was going to be in charge of our wedding, his name was Lou. He was amazing!! He did everything to help us and answered all our questions. If we had any questions he would always call us back if he was in a meeting. About a week before out wedding we had 9 or 10ppl, tell us they weren't coming to the wedding after the responded yes. And some of them weren't going to tell us, we found out from other sources. Needless to say that's a lot of money we were going to lose, we explained the situation to Lou and I didn't know what to do, the wedding was paid in full already...well he calculated the amount of the "seats" we would be paying for and he gave us a credit to use towards anything we wanted-any extra desserts, etc. We were so thrilled that money wouldn't go to waste, we got zeppolis and chocolate fondue. The day of the wedding went smoothly, we had out suite upstairs with food, champagne, drinks, the mait're D kept checking on me and my girls, she was by my side the whole time. Even at the wedding she made sure my husband and I had drinks and everything was going the way we wanted it. I couldn't have asked for a better venue and better people to work with. Still 5months later my guest talk about how amazing the experience was and the food was outstanding. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone.

Mike was a pleasure to work with. He read the crowd perfectly and took our guidelines and put his own creative touch on it, making for an unforgettable time. Several guests asked us for the playlist after the event. We also had a family member sing a song for us and Mike coordinated with him and made everything go seamlessly. We couldn’t recommend Mike enough.
