At Dear September Events, we make you a guest at your own wedding—fully present, stress-free, and focused on the reason that you're celebrating: each other. From keeping your favorite drink (and some water) within arm’s reach to making sure your comfy shoes are already under your chair at dinner, we anticipate your every need so you never have to lift a finger. Our peace-of-mind approach means we handle everything: organizing, sourcing, designing, managing, and coordinating all the details before, during, and even after your wedding.
For each wedding we curate a luxurious and personalized experience that allows your planning to fit into your life rather than overtake it. From in-depth ceremony guidance to receiving and delivering items to your venue, we handle it all with care. Every step of the way, we prioritize what matters most to you—ensuring your celebration is as unforgettable and seamless as it is meaningful.
After your date is officially secured, we take the time to learn more about who you are—both as a couple and individually—what you value, what makes your heart sing in a celebration, and what gives you the ick. We dive deep into the details that make your love story uniquely yours and explore how to allocate your investment, prioritizing what matters most to you.
Next, we piece together your unique vision with personalized venue and vendor recommendations that align with your style, expectations, and budget. We spend countless hours researching while you sit back, view a few options, and choose! We’ll create your customized design booklet and guide your vendors in bringing the wedding of your dreams to life, infusing your aesthetic and story throughout the details.

"I stumbled upon Dear September in the midst of my wedding entertainment search, as they had worked with the band I had my eye on, and when I found out that they offered design and management packages - I knew I had to book them. Not only did it comfort me to know that they had worked with one of our vendors already, but having planned the majority of our wedding myself, I really just wanted a team to take over venue and vendor communications so that I could be stress-free in the final weeks leading up to the wedding. Well, the Dear September team did just that and more. From checking in to keep our to-do list on track, to meeting with our Officiant to review the ceremony timeline, and even attending our final walk-through at our venue - DeAnne went above and beyond in ensuring that every detail was covered and all of the moving parts came together seamlessly; her colleague, Sarah, was a huge help day-of in coordinating with the family/the Wedding party, and ended up even sewing a Bridesmaid's dress back together! Looking back at our wedding, we are so thankful to have had the Dear September team there to support us."

"Dear September Events is a full package company and are completely responsible for the success of our wedding on 1/1/23. They planned our wedding from top to bottom in under 3 months time, everything from design, personalized touches, venue and day of coordination. Their phenomenal wedding planner Deanne even found my dream wedding dress. We were blown away by their services and the ease that came along with having someone who is clearly professional and enjoys their job plan one of the biggest days of our lives. I NEVER write reviews but I felt compelled to because the Virgo in me knows how difficult and anxious I can be but they kept me calm and assured us that everything would be beautiful and they did not disappoint. I will DEFINITELY be calling on them to plan any and every major event of our lives. Dear September Events YOU ARE STUCK WITH US! Thank you thank you thank you. What a way to start off the year! TRULY HAPPY AND GRATEFUL!"

"Deanne and her team at Dear September worked thoroughly with me and my husband to create our perfect wedding. She listened to what we wanted and added so much magic and things we never would have thought of. The whole day ran so smoothly with so many special details that would have never happened without Dear September. Deanne kept me sane though what would have been a stressful time and kept us on track with her handy website and checklists. Couldn’t recommend enough! Everyone is still talking about how special the day was!"

"A million thanks to DeAnne & Sarah for making our wedding a fun and relatively seamless experience. DeAnne swooped into our planning with less than 6 months to our wedding date. We thought we just needed a day of planner, but DeAnne helped us see the light! She provided us with the structure we desperately needed to make our day special, cohesive and intentional. DeAnne worked with our vision and the folks we had already hired, while bringing in the best of her contacts. Plus, Sarah was the most amazing, energetic and peppy day of coordinator. Thank you both!!! I would 100% with no reservations recommend working with Dear September for your wedding!"

"Dear September, was absolutely phenomenal in planning our micro-wedding with only 2 months notice. They didn't even balk at the timeline. They planned the whole day perfectly, I didn't even have to stress about everyone else. They truly just let me enjoy the day and it went by so perfectly. From the beautiful location in Prospect Park complete with a champagne toast to the stunning floral and event design when we arrived to our private dinner space. They even thought of favors to give to our guests as a nod to the day and the significance of it for us. I cannot say enough wonderful things about both Deanne and Leandra - they both tag teamed the day and truly conquered it. I'm trying to think of more events I can have just so I can hire them - they can do it all! Do not hesitate in booking them for your next event!"
