She is absolutely the best at organization, communication making sure everything is done. Not a worry in the world that we have on the wedding day.

Kristen is amazing! She was a key part in the planning and day of the wedding. Wedding Day was a Breeze for me because she took care of everything. Simply Sharp Events is definitely a must if you’re thinking about hiring coordinator.

I cannot recommend Emily Sharp enough as a wedding planner! She truly made my dream wedding a reality. From the initial consultation to the big day, Emily was organized, creative, and attentive to every detail. Her professionalism and positive attitude put me at ease throughout the entire planning process. Emily's expertise and vendor connections helped bring my vision to life, and the end result was beyond my wildest dreams. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to make your special day perfect, look no further than Emily Sharp!

I am a wedding venue owner and have worked with Emily several times now. Emily is so thorough and makes sure she knows what the venue expectations are but never compromises what the couple want as well. That can be a hard thing to do but Emily does it with ease and she never gets overwhelmed or off track. She is so great to work with I always look forward to having her at our venue. As a wedding couple you will be getting one of the best wedding planners I've had the pleasure of working with!

Simply Sharp Events has been an absolute heaven-send for us & we couldn’t recommend them more for your wedding planning needs! We worked alongside Kristen the whole time & Emily was also a big help! My husband & I keep reflecting on the day & how smoothly it went thanks to Kristen & her assistant Elijah. (: I felt we had a sufficient number of meet-ups & phone calls to plan together, & she was also so good at just being a text or call away if we had any questions, & trust me… I had a million. But Kristen was always patient & understanding with us & we truly have SSE to thank for creating such a magical day for all of us!

Emily was the perfect match to make our wedding an absolute dream come true! She is energetic, creative, extremely patient, and most of all she loves what she does and makes it a point to surround herself with other vendors that share her same energy. So many of our vendors came from her rolodex. I knew nothing about planning a wedding so without Emily a lot of parts of our day would not have come to life and I constantly relied on her design recommendations that always turned out beautifully! Could not recommend her more. She made the process feel effortless and truly felt like a friend when helping us plan our wedding!!

Our day couldn’t have gone better all because of Emily! Emily goes the extra mile for her clients, answering every question and dealing with any issues that arise with ease. She worked flawlessly with all of our vendors to ensure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend Simply Sharp for all of your event needs.

Absolutely cannot recommend Emily enough. Would give more than 5 stars if we could. We were looking for someone to just simply set up for morning of the wedding and by booking day of coordination with Emily we got so much more. Emily helped review contracts and arrange all vendor arrival times, ensured every person - vendors and wedding party- had all of the details they needed, gave me a checklist, instructions, details for anything I had asked, was incredibly responsive and so much more. Emily is very clearly well connected to other vendors you need in the area and gave us great recommendations when our hair and make up vendor fell through. If any issues arose day of, my now husband and I had no idea. Emily is incredibly resourceful and solved all of the problems without issue or needing to involve us. You will not regret hiring her for her top notch skills and dance moves.

I cannot overstate how vital Emily and her team were to our wedding. She is everything and more you could ever ask for in an event coordinator, well-connected, competent, approachable, commanding, and most of all a great dancer. The peace-of-mind we had going into our wedding and during our event was almost completely due to Emily. She gave us the space we needed to enjoy our big day and spend meaningful time with our loved ones. I'd give her infinite stars if I could.

You ever wish there could be two of you? Well with Emily there kind is! I had peace of mind throughout the whole wedding process because I knew her eyes would catch anything and everything I may have missed. After our first meeting I knew she would help make decisions that aligned with our wedding vision. She went above and beyond to help make our day exactly what we dreamed of. Her industry connections, advice, and constant availability are priceless. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her about her services, it’s was by far the best investment we made for our wedding.

Emily is such an amazing wedding coordinator . She does beautiful work, has amazing vendor connections, knows how to make the process so stress less, and knows how to help a bride who had no vision for a wedding make a vision and bring it to life. I couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator on our big day. Like I said Emily is truly amazing!

Emily was fantastic!! I hired her as a day of coordinator but she went above and beyond helping me not just the day of but leading up months before. She was always easy to reach if I had any questions, and always touched in to remind me of the small details that I would’ve missed if she wouldn’t have been apart of my planning process. If you’re thinking of hiring Emily Sharp as your wedding coordinator, DO IT!!! Trust me you won’t regret it!

Emily was recommended to us by a mutual friend when I started looking for a coordinator 3 months before our wedding. We’d had to reschedule our wedding several times due to Covid, and when we connected with Emily we had our venue (on site catering), photographer and a very specific vision for our centerpieces and decor that was, quite frankly, a lot to ask for on such short notice. Emily made it all happen. Our wedding day was everything we had envisioned and more. In addition to moving mountains to make our vision a reality, she is super organized, has great connections, and will do endless amounts of research to find the best vendors for your needs! I didn’t stress at all the day of knowing she was taking care of everything. We can’t recommend her enough!!!

Emily was so helpful getting everything organized for us. Most importantly, she freed up our headspace to focus on our family in the days leading up to the event. Highly recommended!

My wedding day was beyond spectacular because of this girl! She recommended top notch vendors that exceeded my expectations and had the day running perfectly smooth. I could not have done this without Simply Sharp Events! Not to mention my whole family loved her and her personality! They recognized her passion and knew this wedding was in the right hands. Let’s do this again next weekend okay?

Emily is the best! Our wedding would not have happened if it wasn’t for her hard work and dedication to making everything perfect. She went above and beyond expectations. From keeping us on track during the different phases of planning, to suggesting vendors that we would not have found otherwise, to keeping us within a reasonable budget, she excelled. We love how genuinely happy and loving she is and couldn’t think of a better person to call.

I was hesitant to hire a coordinator at first but I am so relieved I did. Emily handled everything with such ease. She made us feel so special through the entire process and brought us so much peace for our big day. She constantly checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed to make the day perfect. Emily is much more than a wedding coordinator/planner. She wears so many hats and she even wore the hat of a friend 💕 I can’t sing her praises enough. Thank you, Emily.

Booking Emily with Simply Sharp Events to help plan our wedding was the best decision I could have made! Emily exceeded our expectations on this, and she helped execute the most beautiful, fun, and smooth running wedding day that we could have imagined. We had many guests compliment us on the decor and setup within the venue, and to this I give full credit to Emily. While I feel that our wedding turned out as wonderfully as it did because the planning process was a truly collaborative effort, Emily always made it clear that our wants for the wedding were the priority. Emily was extremely organized and skilled at not only the wedding planning process, but in executing a smooth and stress-free wedding day. Emily is personable, timely, creative, budget-conscious, and extremely effective in her role as a wedding planner and coordinator. I had a great experience, and I would absolutely recommend Emily at Simply Sharp Events as a wedding planner for any bride!

If you have no idea where to begin with planning your wedding, I have one word for you: EMILY. Emily took my wedding from being just an idea to executing the backyard wedding of my dreams. I booked the full service package with her, and within 48 hours of our first phone call, she had already scheduled a caterer tasting, obtained quotes from florists, mapped out the venue structure, set up 2 hotel blocks, and connected me with my hair/makeup artist. She set the bar extremely high from the beginning, and it never came down. Emily thought of details I didn't even know needed planning - Who will wash the dishes? Where will the restrooms go? How will parking work? When do I need to send out invites? She helped me every step of the way. THANK YOUUUUU to Simply Sharp Events for making every one of my dreams come true!!!!! I could write so much more!
