Love Notes

5 stars is not enough. Marguerite exceeded every single expectation we had for our wedding weekend. Her attention to detail is unparalleled and she had such creative ideas to help elevate our celebration. She has access to incredible vendors and their collaboration was seamless. Marguerite left NO stone unturned and our planning process was truly stress free because of her.

Marguerite was so attentive to our needs before and during the weekend of the wedding, emotionally and logistically.

If you are planning a wedding in Vail and not working with Marguerite, you're doing it all wrong. We wish we had another event to plan JUST to work with her.

We love you Marguerite!

I cannot recommend Marguerite enough!! We live on the east coast, and we planned our wedding in Vail from out of town. It would not have been possible without Marguerite. From the minute I spoke to her on the phone, I knew she was the perfect fit for us. She kept us organized and listened to our vision while also keeping us on budget. She was always easily accessible, and I never felt like I had to chase her down to get a response. In fact, it was probably the opposite, she had to chase us down! She also has amazing vendor contacts in the area, which really saved me time on deciding which one was the right fit for us.

‍
On the wedding day, she perfectly executed our vision. She coordinated all the vendors, and created a comprehensive timeline. Most importantly, she made sure that everyone stuck to the timeline! I wasn’t stressed at all because I knew how organized and on top of everything she was. It allowed me to truly be present and enjoy the whole day with my husband. Marguerite’s pricing is very reasonable, and I truly feel she went above and beyond what was promised in our contract. My husband and I both agreed that our only regret is not having her plan our entire weekend!

‍

If you want a dream wedding day go with Marguerite! Our wedding day and planning went seamlessly because of her hard work and knowledge! She is very fun and easy to work with, she keeps a straight face and gets things done! She is honest and in this industry that is hard to find, she will tell you if you are making a bad decision and then hand you the better option. When I walked into our wedding and saw it all put together I thought to myself, she really did listen to every single thing I said and made it come true. Everything I could have imagined our day to be, it was because of Marguerite and her team!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Marguerite who made my special day an absolute dream come true. One of the many things that truly set Marguerite apart was her unwavering attention to detail. She meticulously coordinated every aspect of my wedding. She listened attentively to my ideas and preferences, and then she brought them to life in ways that exceeded my wildest expectations. Every little detail, from the flowers to the table settings, was flawlessly executed, creating a breathtakingly beautiful atmosphere that left all of our guests in awe. Moreover, Marguerite went above and beyond to make sure that every moment of our wedding day was seamless and stress-free. She expertly managed the timeline, coordinated with vendors, and handled any unexpected challenges that arose with grace and professionalism. As a result, my husband and I were able to fully enjoy our day, knowing everything was taken care of. Aside from her exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail, Marguerite also brought a wealth of creative ideas and innovative solutions to the table. She thoughtfully incorporated personalized touches and unique elements that made our wedding truly one-of-a-kind. Her creativity and vision added an extra layer of magic to our special day, making it an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. I cannot express enough gratitude for Marguerite and her outstanding service. She exceeded all of my expectations and went above and beyond to create the wedding of my dreams. Her professionalism, creativity, attention to detail, and warm personality make her an exceptional wedding planner. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is looking for a truly extraordinary wedding planning experience. Thank you, Marguerite, for making our wedding day an absolute dream come true. We are forever grateful for your hard work and dedication to making our special day unforgettable!

There aren’t enough words to describe the level of service that Marguerite Events provides. I took a lot of time researching a wedding a planner and Marguerite was recommended and highly spoken of by all vendors in the Vail community. If you’re considering a planner, consider no more. This is a MUST. To say that she made our entire wedding would be an understatement. We felt like her only couple. She is a planner, logistical genius, therpaist (lol), family drama navigator and now lifelong friend. Thank you Marguerite Events for the best weekend of our lives!

I have worked with many wedding planners over the years being a vendor myself. However, Marguerite was by far the most organized planner I've worked with to date. Well before the wedding day I had more than enough information to feel prepared to do my job. Everything went smoothly and it resulted in one of the best videos I've filmed because the plan went accordingly and I was able to check off 99% of my shot list! I would definitely recommend Marguerite if you're looking for a planner!

Marguerite was truly amazing! So professional, extremely organized, brought great ideas to the table and helped our vision come to life… not to mention she is so patient! Our day could not have been more perfect all because of this talented gal! She is so creative, talented, organized, fun, and is someone you want in your corner. We had to postpone our wedding and Marguerite is the person that really made me at ease when anything concerning would come our way. Fully trusted her to take care of everything and she over delivered! You must hire her!!!

When my fiancé and I first started planning our wedding, we both did not feel we needed a wedding planner. However, once we booked our venue we found out we had to hire a wedding planner so we began interviewing a few planners. We immediately connected with Marguerite and decided to book her, this is the best money we ever spent. Marguerite was responsive and helpful and was always there to offer advice and guidance as we needed. She worked with us to create a detailed timeline and could always hop on the phone to go over anything we needed. If you don’t think you need a wedding planner, hire Marguerite and you won’t regret it.

Words cannot express how thankful I am to have hired Marguerite for my wedding this summer in Vail. As a bride living in Denver, she was well connected in the region and able to offer reliable, local vendors as well as assist in meetings and check-ins I could not attend. She was professional, organized, responsive, and most importantly easy to work with. I always felt like she had my best interest in mind, and she offered great advice during the planning process with her extensive experience in the wedding planning industry. I am so thankful I hired Marguerite and cannot recommend her services enough for brides out there!

What an excellent experience! Working with Marguerite was a joy and although she was handling many other events/ weddings, we always felt we were her only client. Her warm efficient manner was very steadying and the results for the wedding were fantastic! All of her vendors were perfect for what we wanted. Her professional skills were clear working with the caterer, vendors and knowing the best way to incorporate the overall vibe the wedding couple wanted! I would not hesitate to recommend her! We just loved her and wish we had another bride coming up so we could work together again!

5 stars is not enough for Marguerite. I can't imagine what our wedding day would have been like without her. She went above and beyond anything we expected. It was like having the most organized, kind and professional best friend by my side all day. If you're going back and forth on whether or not you need a coordinator/planner, or if you're undecided on who to go with, trust me… you deserve Marguerite. Thank you for everything, Marguerite!!!! You're amazing!

Marguerite is a rock star!!! She made my special day so amazing. She took my vision and blew it out of the park! Her professional demeanor and incredible organizational skills made the day go off without a hitch. We even ran into a last-minute change of decision, on my part. It required renting heaters for the wedding at 10:00pm the night before. Marguerite made it happen and the heaters were delivered and set up before any guests showed up. Marguerite is so through, no stone was left unturned. She has such a sweet and gregarious personality. I wouldn't hesitate for a minute in hiring her. You will be in great hands!

Five stars isn't enough for Marguerite! Not only was she efficient, organized and effective during our wedding planning process, we had so much fun working with her! As a more laissez faire bride, Marguerite kept me on track early on and made making decisions feel easy. She has so many connections for vendors not just in the Vail Valley, but the central mountains and in the metro-area for couples that live elsewhere. When our big day arrived, it unfolded like a dream - there were no hiccups (and if there were, Marguerite took total control of them so we could enjoy our day). All of the stars!!

There were many professionals to choose from when I went online to look for a wedding planner for my daughter's wedding, and I am sure I pick the right one! Living in Illinois and planning a wedding in Colorado seemed difficult and stressful, but Marguerite made it all happen beautifully. It was the best money we spent for the whole wedding. I loved her demeanor; calm, professional and friendly. It felt like I've known her for a long time!

Planning a wedding can be stressful, and time-consuming. have Marguerite as our planner during the entire process was the reason we were able to pull off the most perfect wedding we always dreamed of having from day one! Marguerite is brilliant, responsive, and her attention to detail is flawless. Words cannot describe how grateful my family and I were to have her every single step of the way. She was the backbone of our big day, and I cannot recommend her enough!

Marguerite was fantastic, professional and the attention to detail was by far amazing! Marguerite was available for every call, question and texts! Marguerite came over to help me with my dress, hair dresser, flowers that arrived, photographer, driver & officiant was in place and ready. I would 100% recommend her! Marguerite made our wedding go on without a flaw.

From the couple: We LOVE Marguerite!! Our wedding went very smoothly and we had no worries on wedding day. Not only did the day of go amazingly well, but she was awesome to work with! She is diligent, organized, fun, and SO nice.

From parents of the bride: We worked with Marguerite in planning our daughter’s wedding. What can I say? Marguerite “has it all” from planning to design to detail to execution. She helped us with colors, flowers, table settings, and so much more. She also helped us identify vendors (photography, musicians, florists, etc.) There were no details missed and the event came off flawlessly. She gave our daughter and her then fiancé and us as parents so much peace of mind! I would without question strongly recommend her!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Marguerite as our wedding planner, and we cannot express how grateful we are for her incredible talent and dedication. Her ability to translate our ideas into reality was nothing short of impressive. On the wedding day, Marguerite's presence was like a calming influence. She orchestrated every aspect of the event flawlessly, leaving us to savor every moment without worry. You are the best!

Five stars doesn't even begin to cover it - we can't recommend Marguerite enough! From our very first phone call to the day of our wedding, Marguerite was there with us every step of the way. She offered a comprehensive planning package tailored to our specific event and needs and was always transparent about both her services and pricing. She is incredibly professional, organized and detail-oriented - she removed all the stress from planning and made the whole process really fun and enjoyable! She has an amazing roster of contacts, and she made super thoughtful vendor recommendations that reflected both our style and budget. She truly helped us with everything start to finish, from big decisions like the venue to little decisions like the way we wanted the napkins folded. Our wedding was more perfect than we could have imagined and Marguerite was absolutely instrumental in making it happen - she was by far the most important and BEST decision we made throughout our wedding planning process. Hire her!

From the moment we began our wedding planning journey, Marguerite went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and her creativity truly transformed our vision into a reality. The entire process was stress-free, thanks to her meticulous planning and organization skills.

One of the standout qualities of Marguerite was her ability to listen and understand our preferences. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and it reflected in the personalized touches throughout the wedding. The result was an event that felt uniquely ours, filled with sentimental details that made the day even more special.

The coordination on the day of the wedding was flawless. Marguerite worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy the moment with our loved ones. From coordinating vendors to managing the timeline, she handled every aspect with professionalism and grace.

If you're looking for a wedding planner who is not only skilled and organized but also passionate about creating unforgettable experiences, look no further.

Marguerite helped to make our dream wedding possible! From our first meeting, Marguerite worked to understand our vision and help us in planning and booking excellent vendors.. She coordinated with our vendors to ensure prompt set up and made sure that we had everything that we would need. She was available to answer any questions that we may have had. On the wedding day, Marguerite and her assistant were professional, kind, and supportive. Most importantly, they helped us stay on schedule and made sure that we had time together to eat, celebrate, and enjoy the day. Because of them, we were also able to maximize our time with our guests and enjoy our time on the dance floor. We truly had the best day of our lives, and are so grateful for Events by Marguerite for making that possible!!!!! We would highly recommend using Marguerite as your wedding planner!

Where do I even begin. I found Marguerite through the Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch vendor list. From the moment we spoke I could tell how organized and detailed she was. I didn’t even know what I was signing her up for. She had a spreadsheet and checklist for everything. I am super type A and she checked every box I was looking for and more. From her thorough and detailed timeline to vendor communication she was thoughtful and communicative. There wasn’t a moment I couldn’t pick up my phone and shoot her a text with an almost immediate response (which is asking for too much as is). I can truly say there wasn’t a single detail that she overlooked. Even more my family has very high standards and they were so thrilled with everything she executed. I don’t know many people who can say their wedding weekend went off without a flaw but she made it happen. Thank you, Marguerite, for your hard work. We can’t recommend her enough!

My wife and I got married at Piney River Ranch, which can be a really difficult place to execute a flawless wedding. With no cell service and a long bumpy mountain road, if anything is overlooked or forgotten, it's not going to be fixed. With that in mind, Marguerite and her team were on top of everything. Nothing was lost or forgotten. Everything was as we had hoped! Marguerite is the perfect combination of organized, assertive, available, and responsive! We got engaged over 18 months before our wedding, and immediately started working with Marguerite. She helped us create a timeline on when to make certain decisions. This information was so helpful because each market is so different. She knew when to book certain vendors before they were booked up, and gave great recommendations on where to look! As our wedding date approached, she made sure to give us as much time as we needed, helping to ease the stress of wedding planning!

She found us vendors for rentals, sending us quotes and saving us tons of time and review reading. She created organized documents that brought all of our information together in one place. Marguerite is extremely responsive, making sure we never went long before getting our hundreds of questions answered. She loves to chat over email, text, and phone calls, whichever is best for her clients! The weekend of the wedding, she came to pick up a lot of our things for the wedding, running through a checklist to make sure we had everything we needed. The day of the wedding was so relaxing. Yes, I mean that! My wife and I were 100% calm because we knew Marguerite and her team had everything covered. She made sure to understand our style and wishes, and everything they set up with the florist looked AMAZING! She herded guests, kept venders on schedule, and made sure all of our requests were taken care of. We have been to a fair amount of weddings, and I don't think we have ever seen such organization, calmness, and execution from a team of vendors. Our friends and family also commented on the same thing! Marguerite is a great leader on the day of your wedding, and a joy to be around! Please consider any or all of her services, because the end result was everything we hoped for!

Marguerite is an absolute GEM and ANYONE would be so lucky to have her plan your wedding!!! We had such an amazing experience with her as our planner, confidant, and by the end of it - FRIEND! She was always so encouraging and fun to be around when it came to planning (as we all know, it isn't always easy!) and as someone who also works in the wedding industry (flowers) we just had THE BEST time working with her through that aspect as well. Detail oriented, thorough, and just so sweet to be around - our families loved her as much as we did. Oh, and did I mention that she was THAT incredible all while she was due with her son ONLY A FEW DAYS BEFORE OUR WEDDING! Nothing but amazing things to say of Marguerite as a person and a planner! Best decision you will make for your wedding!

Words cannot express my gratitude for Marguerite. She did the most amazing job planning our dream 100+ person wedding in Colorado, canceling that wedding once COVID made it impossible/unsafe, and then planning a second micro-wedding in Arizona! While we were devastated COVID canceled the plans for our big day, Marguerite helped us to plan an intimate wedding in Arizona for just our families on our original date. We started from scratch, and in under a month she created the most magical backyard wedding. It turned out absolutely beautiful, and we could not be more happy with our special day! She is thoughtful in her planning, attentive to every detail, and an absolute a joy to be around!! She is also someone who knows how to handle any crisis. I genuinely don’t know what we would have done without her. We are so grateful to have had Marguerite as our wedding planner, and highly recommend her to all!!

There is no way I can put into words how incredible Marguerite and her team were. They were in constant communication, response time was immediate, any issues were solved instantly and the wedding went off without a single problem due to her hard work and strategy for this wedding. My daughter was supposed to be married in Colorado with 125 guests in attendance. Thanks to Covid-19, that was cancelled. Marguerite had already done everything for the Colorado wedding and we told her we had to change to Arizona. From 125 guests to just 15! She said no problem and was off and running with a new plan. She handled the florist, the arch, the chairs, the caterers, the music and coordinated all small things so that my daughter and our family could just concentrate on the day. If you have any concerns or worries about your wedding or large event, I can't recommend her enough. I can't wait to have a reason to use her again!! Our family is very grateful for all she and her team did to make our special day flawless.

Marguerite was absolutely amazing. She was available whenever I wanted to bounce ideas--via text, zoom, phone, or email. But Marguerite also impressed me by her ability to handle all the things I didn't want to! Marguerite is great at being whatever kind of planner you need for your personality--even if that changes from week to week.  Marguerite found every perfect vendor for our day. And she was willing to take on every planning logistic to make our day perfect. When our venue told us they couldn't flip a room between ceremony and reception, Marguerite changed their mind (and pulled it off seamlessly). Our photographers privately told us that Marguerite was the best and most organized planner they'd ever worked with. Marguerite was just absolutely amazing at every step. I would hire her again 100 times out of 100.

I can't imagine a better wedding planner. She was attentive to every detail, thought of things I hadn't even considered and came up with lots of creative ideas. She had wonderful resources and lots of knowledge about options in the area. And on the day of the event, she was there to make sure everything went precisely as planned.

Marguerite is SO FREAKING FANTASTIC. I wasn't sure that I wanted a "wedding planner" from the get-go of planning our wedding because I'm fairly good at planning things myself but as I was going through the process, it became clear to me that having a coordinator would be very stress relieving for me. Marguerite was recommended to me by two other planners (a great sign!) and I am SO GLAD that she was. We had our wedding at my husband's family's ranch so we really benefited from having an expert anticipate the things that we needed/didn't need since this was the first wedding done on the ranch. She also saved us lots of money with the rentals because she helped identify the things that we wouldn't actually need. She coordinated well with all of our other vendors, interacted with our guests, and generally had a very relaxed energy that helped make our day special. I felt like I could completely relax on the day of our wedding because I knew that Marguerite could/would (and did) handle whatever things might come up. If you are thinking that you might like to have a wedding coordinator, JUST BOOK MARGUERITE ALREADY.

My son got married in Vail/Piney River Ranch toward the beginning of the pandemic when rules and venue capacity numbers were changing daily, and I don't know how we would have done it without her. She handled it with grace and I really felt like she had our back! I especially appreciated when she suggested we move our rehearsal dinner to a different venue because the one we had originally chosen was not responding to the changes the way we needed. I trusted her and I was happy I did - and the new venue ended up being better! Marguerite was everything you would want from a wedding planner (organized and inspired, while staying relaxed) but a couple of her qualities really stood out: 1) She understood the stress involved in the process and listened when I needed her to; and 2) She was very respectful of our budget. She had an opinion on where to spend and where to save - and reassured me that the places we spent less wouldn't matter in the end. And they didn't! Most importantly, I had a good time at the wedding, because she was in charge and I knew we were in good hands!
