I could go on for days about how grateful I am to have worked with Bon Vivant for my wedding! First off, the team wildly talented and able to make every dream--big, small or even a little crazy--come to life so seamlessly and stress free. Beyond their incredible creative vision, organization and expertise, they're A+ people and an absolute joy to work with! Smart, funny, positive and world class problem solvers--there was not a single time that they weren't able to find a solution! What people always warn to be the most stressful event to plan, planning this wedding was nothing short of fun and stress free, only made possible by Bon Vivant and I hope to be able to work with them for a future event!
I found Bon Vivant through a recommendation and after speaking with them and a few other planners via phone, I knew Bon Vivant was the right choice for me. The conversation was so easy, Alia was very approachable, and best of all got me so excited about planning.
The best way to explain my experience with Bon Vivant is EASY. I never expected I would describe planning a wedding in California while living in Ohio to be easy, but they made every single part of planning our wedding so effortless. Everything from researching and booking vendors, to the day-of timeline, was not only headache free but fun. I remember the day I got our design boards through email and how excited I was because I knew Alia just "got it" and our vision would be brought to life.
There was never a time that Bon Vivant made me feel anxious or nervous and we were never made aware if there were any hiccups along the way. Communication was always on point, they kept me on track with contracts and other deliverables that I had to do, and kept the process moving at a really great pace.
We had a weekend full of events and each one was unique and full of the smallest details that made the best memories. We were completely worry-free, which meant our time was spent enjoying each other and our guests. The team was always around to answer any questions I had and to let me know that all was being taken care of. Words can't describe how happy I was with our wedding weekend. It was absolutely perfect. Thank you Bon Vivant for planning and executing our favorite day so seamlessly!
Shortly after my husband and I got married at an intimate (and super brief!) ceremony at City Hall in New York, we set out to plan a larger celebration for the following summer in Cape Cod. From the very start, the Bon Vivant team made us feel extremely excited about the opportunity to have our creative vision come to life and extremely taken care of. Not only are they incredibly professional and deeply knowledgeable about everything related to weddings (trust their vendor recommendations - they are amazing), but they’re also so kind, warm-hearted, and grounded. Throughout the entire experience, from inception to execution, Bon Vivant kept calm, cool, and collected, which helped us do the same.
If there were any hiccups on the day of, we knew nothing about them and were able to fully immerse ourselves in a beautiful, joyful day. We received endless compliments from guests, not only on the aesthetics of the wedding weekend but the seamlessness of its events that lent itself to everyone having so much fun, which is what we ultimately hoped for!
We absolutely loved working with Bon Vivant and would not have wanted to embark on such a personal and special journey with anyone else. We would wholeheartedly recommend Bon Vivant to anyone and everyone.
If you are considering planning a wedding or event with Bon Vivant, don't hesitate. DO IT! My wife and I worked with Bon Vivant for our wedding in Charleston. After we signed the contract with Bon Vivant, we ended up changing our plans multiple times. In fact, we even changed the country we had originally agreed on. At every step of the process, the team was kind, understanding, helpful, and, most importantly, consummate professionals who navigated obstacles with ease and made the planning process exciting for us, not overwhelming.
Even with all our faith and confidence in Bon Vivant, we couldn't have imagined how beautiful the day would turn out. They anticipated every potential glitch and our every need, and the process ran seamlessly. We were totally unburdened and able to simply enjoy our day. Even our guests remarked that they felt like whenever they had a desire, a member of the Bon Vivant team had anticipated it and delivered whatever it was.
It's unusual to be able to endorse any company without hesitation, but Bon Vivant is special. We will be forever grateful for having met them, and we can't wait for them to plan birthday parties for our kids!
In the words of Vogue, when it comes to throwing a dream wedding, there is hardly enough that can be said about hiring a capable planner. Hiring Bon Vivant was like giving ourselves a gift that kept on giving. A great wedding planner will truly listen to you and then share expertise and advice in a positive, honest way. They'll make the complex simple. They'll embrace challenges. And they'll keep it real. From the beginning, the team always listened thoughtfully to all of our ideas and concerns. I left our meetings feeling happy, grateful, empowered, and inspired. My husband and I both loved working with them and becoming friends. We trusted them implicitly.
Our wedding day only reinforced how wonderful they are. Even in high-pressure last-minute situations, without exception they calmly moved things along beautifully, balancing professional expertise with sensitivity and poise. In the end, our wedding was what we envisioned and hoped for: a beautiful celebration of nature, children, and love. Our guests had a glorious time, and that's what was most important to us. We are so grateful to Bon Vivant and the incredibly talented artists and vendors they helped us find, all of whom worked tirelessly to bring our dream to life.
I picked Bon Vivant to plan our wedding and it was easily one of the best decisions that I could have made. They are tireless hard workers who have an obvious knack for aesthetics, organization, and people skills that make them so well suited for their line of work. Bon Vivant helped make the process of wedding planning truly seamless and were able to work with us to come up with a vision that was both true to personal taste and that worked beautifully with the venue. And not to mention that our wedding day turned out to be absolutely stunning!!! We received an endless stream of compliments from friends and family afterward. My husband and I were extremely pleased with all the vendor recommendations along the way. Don't hesitate to hire them.
