Weddings

You have a vision of how your wedding day will be. Maybe it’s been crystal clear since childhood down to the details of your dress and the flavor of the intermezzo sorbet. Maybe all the possibilities for the special day are unclear and, at the moment, intangible but filled with dear friends, family and the love of your life. You know how you want your day to feel and it likely doesn’t include the stress of making sure the ladies room has hairspray for your guests or remembering to tip the caterer.

Events by Renee provides a team of experienced, energetic, fast-thinking coordinators who will ensure a flawless, stress-free event. We specialize in being your trusted partner who will expertly help you sort through your options from the moment you say “yes” to the moment you both say “I do”. Or, we can manage the small and large details for the day of and the week of the wedding so that you can relax on the days leading up to your big day and enjoy your guests, your new spouse – and live the wedding of your dreams!

Impeccably planned strategic events are valuable tools for any business but few businesses have the resources to research vendors and venues and manage the details involved. Your focus should be on your business goals and vision for the event. Expertly managing event details is our business. Events by Renee will help translate your marketing and communications objectives into an event that will impress your target audience and move your priorities forward. Your business objectives and vision stay paramount so that when the event is over, people are still talking about your business, not just the party.

Our experienced, energetic, fast-thinking coordinators will be your trusted partners; they will expertly manage the event down to the smallest detail.
