Cincy Event Planning

I booked CEP a year before my wedding and they were invaluable to me. I couldn't believe how much I needed them and how quick they were to respond to my questions. When the meetings and day of stuff came along they were incredibly helpful, professional, and fun. Lindsey ended up working my day of, as Julie was due with a new baby the week of my wedding, and I never heard boo about any problems for the whole day. The two women had worked together before the day of to make sure that whoever worked the wedding was ready. Lindsey helped decorate the church, get all the guys ready and in place, played "babysitter" to a sobbing niece while the usher/dad walked down the aisle, and she even played bouncer for us so that we could have a few minutes to ourselves after the ceremony. Everything went smoothly and I recommend CEP to every bride I meet. I even asked for some of their business cards to hand out!

From start to finish, Lindsey Bayer with CEP was a delight to work with and gave us an incredible four day wedding weekend that exceeded our wildest dreams. Our wedding was in Pinehurst, NC - we live in Atlanta, she is based in Cincinnati - yet everything came into place and was honestly so beautiful and spectacular - our guests have actually been sending thank you cards to us for inviting them to be a part of such a wonderful weekend - all thanks to Lindsey and CEP. Lindsey was involved from the very beginning and helped select the vendor for our save the dates/invitations/programs, planned all of the florals/decor, worked hand in hand with all of our vendors - and really made the entire year of planning stress free and fun for us, we feel so lucky to have worked with her. Our wedding consited of 6 events for 70 - 150 guests and each event was full of surprises and unique personal touches that made us and our guests feel like we couldn't have thought of anything else, wouldn't have done anything differently - it was truly an amazing experience and we owe it all to Lindsey and CEP. I would recommend them to anyone, anytime, for a wedding or event anywhere - they are truly the best!

CEP is absolutely wonderful. Julie and her team are extremely professional. I used CEP for my reception only and they took care of everything from time line logistics at the reception to coordinating with the photographer, band and reception venue. CEP eliminated a lot of stress and I was able to enjoy our reception. I highly recommend CEP to anyone.

Julie at Cincy Event Planning was wonderful. She was my day of coordinator (but it is actually more like a week of coordinator). She took care of all the final confirmations as well as helping with decoration ideas and timeline. I also used her great stash of glassware for my candles. She was so helpful on the day of the wedding that my husband and I didn't worry about a thing! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner!

Cincy Event Planning- in my opinion- are MARVELOUS! Jules was so helpful during the planning stages of my wedding by providing intimate details on each vendor and guidance on the event. The design and vision that I wanted and created was literally brought to life the day of the wedding thanks to this ladies- WOW - it brought tears to my eyes- simply beautiful. Not only are they talented event planners but they are wonderful, loving woman and mothers! They played with the children and danced along with them- with all of us- through out the evening- these ladies are FUN! We cannot express enough how fortunate and thankful we are for everything Jules + Lindsey did for us - they made our dream into a reality that will forever be a treasured memory for all of us.

Hiring a Day Of Coordinator was not something my husband and I anticipated during the wedding planning process, but we are so very happy we booked CEP for our wedding! Hiring a coordinator was, by far, the best money we spent on the entire wedding! Not only did CEP set our mind at ease months before the big day, but Julie and Lindsey helped coordinate our entire event into a gorgeous and orderly day. The skills they possess are priceless and we are so glad they were able to be a part of our big day! We will definitely recommend their services to all current and future brides.

Julie is amazing. She made my wedding day more than I thought it could be. I booked her "day of" services and the only mistake that I made was not hiring her for the whole process. Book Cincy Event Planning and book them now, you will not regret it.

Lindsey took all of the worry out of our wedding day. We had a ton of "stuff" to do, to take, to set up the day of... and she made it happen. Special note, she made all of this happen just weeks before delivering her first baby! My husband, Steve and I are so grateful. Lindsey's guided our rehearsal with ease and brevity. She managed our vendors with grace and patience. And she allowed a bride to... well, be a very happy bride! Looking back, it simply would not have been the same wonderful day without Cincy Event Planning. With many, many thanks - Steve & Jennifer Millman

My wedding day-of coordinator was Lindsey Bayer with Cincy Event Planning and she was outstanding. She was flexible, responsive, and extremely professional. She had great recommendations and I valued her input. She has great taste. I didn't have to worry about a thing on my wedding day, and neither did my family. I was recently in a friend's wedding who did not have a coordinator, and her mother and bridesmaids had to do a lot of tasks on the wedding day which stressed everyone out, especially the bride. Take my advice, use a day-of coordinator, it is worth the $500 or so. And moreover, call Lindsey at Cincy Event Planning! She and her husband even brought all my leftover alcohol and presents to my house afterwards. Above and beyond. Plus she is really cool. You won't regret it!

My husband and I were so fortunate to be able to book Julie for day-of-coordination. Despite the fact that we only booked her as a DOC, I felt as though I could always count on her to give me honest feedback and advice throughout the planning process. She was such a valuable resource!Julie and her associate had such great personalities and were able to put us at ease on such a busy and overwhelming day of our lives. As a result of her attention to detail and professionalism, my husband and I were able to enjoy our wedding day : )

I really can not imagine my wedding day without Julie and Cincy Event Planning. From our first meeting together, she totally put me at ease. I had read many great things about her on the Knot and she definitely lived up to all of my expectations. I wanted someone to handle the rehearsal and day of events so I wouldn't have to worry about anything or lift a finger and she didn't disappoint. She took care of everything for me- handling the marriage certificate, paying vendors, making sure we had bottled water at the church for the wedding party- everything you could imagine. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is considering hiring a Wedding Planner/DOC. Defintely the best decision I made through the whole process! It was money well spent and I would do it again in a second!

Lindsey and Julie were wonderful to work with. Everything that they set up and coordinated was great and exactly how I wanted it to be.

Great to work with. Worth every penny!

Lindsey was amazing! First of all, she came to my house for a pre-wedding consult. It was so nice to be able to meet with her in my home when everything was so crazy before the wedding. I used her for day of wedding coordinating services at The Westin downtown Cincinnati. She showed up on the wedding day and just took over. I didn't have to worry about a thing and when something came up that we hadn't planned, she found a solution. I would recommend her and her company to anyone looking for personalized attention and superb service.

Julie with Cincy Event Planning made our day seamless. Everyone kept telling my how calm and laid back I was throughout our wedding day and it was because I knew Julie would take are of anything that went wrong. She provided great insight and organization leading up to the wedding day. She made my husband and I feel so at ease about the entire planning process. By the time the wedding came around she fit in like family. We had six little wedding dudes in our bridal party ranging in age from 3-7. Julie helped coach them down the aisle during the rehearsal and pumped them up when it was time for the ceremony, they were so calm they loved every minute of being involved. The care and attention she gave to them speaks volumes about her demeanor and personality! Julie is a gem. We are grateful to have found her.

Julie and her team made our wedding day run smoothly. I didn't want to have the caterer, florist, DJ, etc., coming to me with questions on my wedding day (or bugging my mom or bridesmaids for answers). In our meetings before the wedding she gathered all the contact info for my vendors and she made all the final verifications with them. She helped set our day-of schedule/timeline and everything ran on schedule. She even carried around vases of water to keep our bouquets hydrated & in the shade when we weren't using them for photos--something I never would have thought of, but it was very helpful for our hydrangeas, which can tend to wilt quickly. Great service all around!

Lindsey was our coordinator and did a fantastic job. She was so on top of every detail and made me feel completely at ease. She helped out with the rehearsal and made sure the next day went smooth. She focused on the details even remembering at the end of the night to get rid of all the center pieces for the guests to enjoy in their homes. Very friendly and personable and willing to do as much or as little as I needed.

I cannot put into words how great Julie and Lindsey are. I used them as day of coordinators for my ceremony. They took care of everything, so I could sit back and be the bride and not have to worry about anything. There are so many details that I never even thought of that they made sure came out perfect for my special day. This is one service that I would leave room for in my wedding budget as their services made my day!

Jules was AMAZING! I called her in as a kind of last-minute quarterback after I'd gotten over-extended and extremely frustrated in the final weeks before the wedding. She finalized arrangements with all my vendors, including negotiating a particularly challenging communication issue with my location and finding me a limo on short notice. She made my wedding fun for me again and re-energized me in the planning process. My actual wedding day was PERFECT!! I couldn't have been happier and my guests are still talking about how amazing it was more than a year later.

Julie was an amazing day-of coordinator! She not only helped us stay on track and on time the day of the wedding, she even helped me out before my big day when I had a last minute dress emergency! There was nothing Julie wouldn't do - she set up and took down everything at the church, she changed the floral wristlets to pin-on corsages and she got us a new limo when our first one arrived without air conditioning on a hot August day! Julie was a huge help from start to finish and I would recommend her to any bride who needs a little extra coordination :)
