Fete and Figs (especially Audrey) is AMAZING. They saved my best friends' wedding from becoming a…read moredisaster (and it really would have been a disaster without them). I was the Maid of Honor for my friends' Cher and Tony's wedding and I was also their unofficial wedding planner. They originally had a day of coordinator provided from another company - this coordinator dropped the ball on so many occasions that we had to fire her and look for a new one TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE WEDDING. I emailed Amanda in a panic and she replied within an hour and hopped on the phone with me to hear my concerns over what didn't work out with the previous person and also let me know that they potentially had someone available. In comes Audrey - organized, professional, and overall a gem of a human being. The difference between her and their old coordinator was night and day! She came in two weeks prior and was able to get a wrangle on all the vendors and organization details. She came to the walkthrough so prepared that even their other vendors were impressed. We were so stressed with our old coordinator but all the stress came right off after Audrey took over. On the day of the wedding, we also had Maeghan onsite (another amazing human being btw) - every last detail was PERFECT. Everything was set up the way the bride had wanted. The wedding went off without a hitch and it wouldn't have happened that way without the team at Fete and Figs.

I booked Marina as my wedding event and design coordinator for my wedding. I had seen many events…read morethat she had executed flawlessly so I knew that I wanted to have her special touch make my vision come true. At our initial meeting I pulled in to her cottage with plenty of parking in the rear and when I walked in, it was like a fairytale inside. She had tables, seating, columns and chandeliers already set up so you could see samples of her work. She also had invitations, faux cakes and photos from her suggested vendors as well. I knew immediately she was the woman for the job. She offered me a drink and we sat down. She noticed I was pregnant and made me feel so comfortable. I told her with being pregnant I didn't want the stress of planning the wedding to affect me or my baby. She assured me that she would make my wedding day the most memorable, beautiful day ever. Marina showed me tons of ideas and she also listened to mine she helped me decide on exactly what I was looking for. She walked me through several decor ideas and helped me find the perfect venue. She said she would get everything started as far as the venue and decor planning right away and we scheduled our next meeting. We only needed to meet very few times throughout the planning process because Marina is a veteran at this game, she knows decor, venues and vendors so she can basically make anything happen if you just let her know your needs. On the days leading up to my wedding I was calm and comfortable that she would be able to execute all of my details. I was able to incorporate all of the ideas I had but in a very beautiful way. The day of my wedding was absolutely magical from the moment I walked in my bridesmaids and I were taken to the bridal suite and given the most beautiful hand made bouquets to walk down the aisle with. She had everything all set up in the bridal suite to make my fiends and family so comfortable. She interacted so well with my family, they loved her. She was very organized on the day of and managed the time line perfectly. The wedding started right on time and my guests didn't have to wait at all. When I walked down the aisle I was absolutely captivated by how magical and beautiful everything looked. I couldn't believe I was actually living out my dream wedding. She did things with my initial vision that I could have only imagined. The ceremony was beautiful but the reception was even more amazing. The place settings, chairs and center pieces were to die for. Everything had so much detail all the way down to the floor. She really knows how to pull it all together. She made sure all the vendors were on time and on point I honestly didn't worry about any of the details on the day of. She made sure to include all of the special moments so mentioned and took good care of my family throughout the night. If you're looking to have your dream wedding no matter the ideas you may have she can make it happen. If you're worried about the planning details like hotel, venue, cake and who will be your officiant or even your caterer, Marina and her team walk you through the entire process without worry. You can be yourself and she doesn't dismiss your vision. She is a pleasure to work with an she loves family. Check out my pictures below and feel free to contact me with any questions about my wedding experience with Marina events and design studio. I won't be getting married again anytime soon but any other events or friends that need a referral will all be sent to Marina. Thanks again Marina you're family now and we love you and your amazing team!

I still cannot believe how beautiful our wedding was. She really did an amazing job and I cannot recommend her enough. Also, she offers floral services and her prices are extremely reasonable which is unlike many other decorators.

After reading positive reviews of EKS Weddings and Events, we scheduled a meeting with owner and…read morelead planner Elizabeth Klespies to talk about our 50th anniversary celebration. Within the first 15 minutes, we knew our event would be in talented, capable hands. She came armed with her color-coded planner and a zipper pouch of pens and pencils. Her attention was riveted on our every response to her probing questions regarding what we wanted our event to be. Clearly she was extremely organized and obviously she cared. We couldn't sign the contract fast enough, so no one else could book her for our date. It was one of the best decisions we've ever made. We cannot say enough about the magic Elizabeth performed to make our celebration, in the words of many of our guests, "the best event I've ever attended." Her monthly reminder lists were invaluable in keeping us on track. She was absolutely unflappable and completely calm, even when we made major changes, like the time of the event and the venue. She just congenially accommodated our requests and "fixed" everything we had disrupted. She truly wanted this to be our dream event. Some of the best elements of the celebration would not have been possible without Elizabeth's guidance and assistance. She has such an extensive knowledge of talent in the Atlanta area that when we asked at a fairly late date to have a caricaturist and a living statue, she simply made it happen. She was also an effective advocate for us in persuading the venue to ease some of their policies to permit one of our special requests. On the day of our main event, Elizabeth and her assistant Kat absolutely transformed the blank slate of the ballroom into an exquisite event space in what seemed a very short time. Then we were able to see how all the choices and decisions she helped us make over the previous months came together with her talent to create exactly the look we had wanted. The entire evening went off flawlessly thanks to Elizabeth's talent and skills. At the end of the event, while we were saying goodbye to our guests, Elizabeth and Kat distributed centerpieces to our delighted guests, rounded up all the items that were rented, and packed up our personal items. By the time we thought to inquire about our things, they had been safely stored in our hotel room. If you would like to hire a planner who will help you bring your vision to life and give you peace of mind to enjoy your special day while she takes care of the details, you cannot make a better choice than Elizabeth Klespies and EKS.
