" I genuinely don’t have enough good things to say. I truly cannot imagine the day without Emily and her team.


From the months leading up to the wedding, she was such a steady, helpful presence. She kept us on track, made sure nothing fell through the cracks, and was always available to answer questions or talk through details.

By the time the wedding day came around, she knew my vision so well that I was able to fully let go. I was able to tell her, “I trust you,” with all the little details- and that is not something I would say lightly. Because of that, I didn’t have to worry about a single thing.


She stepped in seamlessly, handled every detail, and made sure everything ran exactly how it was supposed to without ever making it feel stressful or overwhelming. There were so many moving parts, and she managed all of it calmly and confidently behind the scenes.


What stood out the most was how present I was able to be. I wasn’t worried about timelines, vendors, or what was happening next- I just got to enjoy the day. That is 100% because of her.


She was organized, communicative, and just genuinely cared about making the day special for us. Our wedding went so smoothly, and I know that’s not by accident.


If you’re even considering hiring a planner or coordinator- do it, and hire her. It was one of the best decisions we made. "

Alainna Holder- Bride

"We truly could not have asked for a better wedding coordinator than Emily and her incredible team! From the very beginning, Emily went above and beyond to make the entire planning process smooth, stress-free, and genuinely enjoyable. She helped us find the perfect vendors that matched our vision and personalities so well we felt so confident and cared for every step of the way.


On the wedding day itself, Emily and the Olive branch team were absolute rockstars. Every little detail was handled seamlessly, and they kept everything running perfectly on time without us ever having to worry about a thing. We were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment knowing we were in the best hands.


Emily’s organization, professionalism, and kind personality truly set her apart. She has such a gift for what she does, and we are endlessly grateful for her help in making our day more beautiful than we could’ve ever imagined.


This is absolutely the team you want to help you on your big day!"

-Maleigha & John Thompson

" Emily was such a godsend on our wedding day! She was attentive from the very start of the day and locked into the smallest of details (like making sure my husband ate before the ceremony) that helped make our day awesome. She communicated so well with the vendors day of and made sure that the decorations my bridesmaids and I spent months on were perfectly displayed - helping fine-tune last minute adjustments so they could shine. Nothing prepares you for how many directions you’re pulled in on your wedding day, but Emily kept us on track and our timeline smooth. We’ve heard from so many friends and family members since on how much they loved our wedding! We’re thankful for all the help Olive Branch Events gave us in making our day a great one for both us and our guests! 💕 "

Our wedding was amazing thanks to Emily and her team at Olive Branch Events. At first my wife and I thought that planning a wedding was not going to be that difficult, and wanted to keep our expenses to a minimum. My wife suggested we reached out to Emily for advice and we are so thankful we did! After our conversation with her, it was evident that we couldn’t learn everything we needed to plan for on Pinterest and TikTok. Her packages were a great price for what all she and her team would take care of. We ultimately chose the “Olive Branch Package”. From the time we signed with Olive Branch Events till the day we said our I do’s, it was so smooth and so much less stress. She kept us accountable for staying on task for planning and took care of so many details that it took so much stress off of us. Her entire team was updated on our specific desires, and they worked passionately on every aspect from the planning phases to clean up after our reception. We couldn’t have been more pleased with choosing to go with Olive Branch Events as our wedding coordinator.

We planned our wedding all while living and being in IL and she was always so on top of everything and helped me find the absolute best vendors.
