neu events

We had such an amazing experience with Neu Events! Deni who was our planner, made our wedding a day we'll never forget! From the very beginning, Deni made us feel so comfortable--like she was an old friend who completely understood what we wanted. Her warm, approachable personality immediately put us at ease, and her expertise made the entire process smooth and enjoyable.Deni's attention to detail and creativity brought our vision to life in ways we couldn't have imagined. She handled every aspect of the planning with care and professionalism, ensuring everything was perfect. On the day of the event, she managed everything so seamlessly that we were able to fully enjoy every moment without a worry.Our guests couldn't stop raving about how beautiful and well-coordinated everything was. Deni and her team truly went above and beyond, and we're so grateful for her hard work and personal touch. If you're looking for a planner who feels like family and delivers nothing but excellence, Neu Events are the absolute best!

Absolutely fantastic!We had a big summit filled with CEOs, big investors, investment banks - ie a high maintenance and very discerning crowdNeu Events was the coordinator of multiple dinners, tons of activities, breakfasts, etc over four days. Everything was seamless and run flawlessly. We also had number of last minute issues - eg dinner didn't have the right AV and Neu Events was able to find fast alternatives that worked wellLastly we had a big storm completely messing up one day and Neu was able to scramble wellOverall truly exceptional service and delivered a very high quality several days that all the participants universally lovedSo truly phenomenal. We will absolutely be using Neu Events for our conference next year!

Choosing NEU Events was hands down one of the best decisions my now husband and I ever made for our wedding day. My college counselor referred me to NEU Events, specifically Mona and her team. We did a Zoom meeting with her and we instantly knew she was the one we wanted to work with. She was so kind and so helpful with our questions during the meeting and we felt super comfortable while speaking with her, which were all the things that were important to us. We then met Deni at our next meeting and let me tell you, Mona and Deni, literally THE BEST DUO to work with. They both were so sweet, responsive and kept us on track during the entire planning process. They asked questions we didn't even think of and even helped us brainstorm some ideas that we couldn't quite figure out. Every time our meetings ended I would feel a sense of relief because I knew Mona and Deni were on top of things. And that's something huge coming from someone who tends to stress about every little thing! Deni then took over majority of the coordinating/planning as we got closer to our wedding day and she was amazing. Super sweet, super helpful, super organized and she really paid close attention to all the details of our wedding. The day of the wedding came and we got to meet the additional team members Karin and Aileen. Who were just as awesome as well! My husband and I got to enjoy every second of our wedding. No stress, no worries. That in itself is the biggest gift we could've ever gotten. And that's all thanks to Mona, Deni, Karin and Aileen. They handled everything, literally everything, so perfectly and executed everything so well. They went above and beyond what we envisioned and imagined for our wedding day. We will forever be grateful to Mona, Deni and the entire NEU Events team. HIRE THEM. You won't regret it!

Mona and the whole crew were phenomenal coordinators from the beginning to the end of our wedding planning and wedding day. Mona was very patient, experienced, compassionate, and enthusiastic at what she does for couples. No matter what I threw at her, she handled it with grace and professionalism, and left us with results that my husband and I were extremely happy with. Aileen was also very helpful, making sure that we were all up to speed and had efficient and effective communication throughout the process. On the day of the wedding, her entire coordinating crew ensured that our wedding went smoothly and fun! They improvised and adapted to what was happening, especially since my family was prepping a lot of things that they kept a surprise from my husband and I. Thank you to all the wonderful ladies who all handled the stress, problems, and labor for us-- you were all so sweet and amazing to work with.The whole experience collaborating with neu events felt like we were working with a team who we knew for a long time. They put our needs and wants first, and showed us their passion to make it happen. We are extremely grateful for Mona and all the wonderful ladies who helped us for our special day. We could not have enjoyed our night if it had not been for you guys!

As much as this review is long over due (Mona planned and coordinated our wedding in Oct 2015) I couldn't let another day pass without sharing with everyone what an amazing wedding planner she is. Simply said, she will change the entire wedding planning process for you with her organized, caring, creative and dedicated approach.Mona has every detail organized and takes every bit of care to ensure you are 100% satisfied with the outcome and the experience. She creates memories for everyone involved, and makes you feel as though you're her only client. Getting Mona to assist us with full planning and coordination was the best decision we made - you will not have a single regret if you hire her for your special day. note: Mona currently operates under Neu Events.

I met Mona 51 days before my wedding and in those 51 days, my view on wedding planning totally changed. Thanks to Weddings by Grace and Mona I can say I think we had an awesome wedding and that our guests enjoyed themselves.I originally thought I just wanted the ON-SITE COORDINATION which is where you would meet with them once before the wedding and do a brain dump of your planning and they would be your go-to person on the day of the wedding. After I realized my wedding was becoming quite a bit more of a production, I realized I wanted the WEDDING WRAP-UP PACKAGE. It is a little more but it gives you unlimited access to them to help you with ideas, and coordination. I don't know how I would have done it with just the day-of coordination. I'm so glad I went for the wrap-up package.One thing is that I don't think I realized there was a difference between a wedding COORDINATOR and a wedding PLANNER. The latter is where they just take over for you; I'm sure Mona has a package for that too but the former is where they really help you plan. I somehow thought that maybe once I brought Mona on board, my life would be easy. Well it's not but that's because I still was the main contact with all the vendors, working out the contracts and had to do all the stupid things like folding invitations, cranes, finding frames, easels and all that. I think if you do the full enchilada of a package, they may take over more of that. But just a warning that hiring a COORDINATOR doesn't mean you get to rest.So to be fair, not everything went perfectly but so is life. But what really mattered was that the major things were all in place and what wasn't going perfectly, Mona, Melanie and Jaymie took care of it so it would be just fine. I didn't have to worry on the day-of because I had 3 of them there with me the whole day! One small example of how they just swooped in to help was that the night before the wedding, I realized I didn't have a contract in place, but that I think I paid but I had no idea where I stood with the vendor--how do I confirm when it's a Sunday and I don't have a contact number! I texted Mona while she was at a wedding the night before mine (she let me know it's ok to text her if something came up and that was the best way to get in touch with her that day) to let her know I was worried and I didn't know how to get in touch with the vendor. Well, never fear, Mona and Melanie reassured me they would follow up and they did. I don't think they are cheap. But I don't think they are out of line with what there is here. But maybe you get what you pay for. But at least WGM takes credit cards! She tends to meet either at Wedding Cafe (Ward Warehouse) or Satura Cakes (Ward Centre) and is open to meeting in the evenings (thank goodness!)If you are wondering how it is to work with Mona and her staff or anything else, feel free to message me. My wedding was so much better and more enjoyable because of Mona. I loved working with Mona and I can only hope you would be able to experience the same thing!

My wife and I booked the wrap-up service (last 3 months leading up to the wedding) from NEU events and we're so glad we did. Mona Hirata was our main coordinator and we would have been so lost without her. We cannot emphasize that enough!Mona is incredibly diligent and prompt with everything and knew just exactly what we had to get done. At every meeting, we were given tasks to complete. It honestly felt like neverending, but there is a reason why and when she assigns the tasks--to gradually alleviate the stress counting down to the big day. We had an amazing night and it would not have happened without her expertise and zeal for this profession. Her line of communication is clear and very accessible via text or email. Besides her outstanding professionalism, we got to know Mona on a personal level during the planning process---she's got a bubbly personality and a big heart!!We highly recommend NEU Events, you won't regret Mona and her team!

Heidi from Neu Events was such a pleasure to work with, and I couldn't have imagined a better planner to help turn our wedding dreams into a reality! My husband and I decided to use the wedding coordination package which included 6 months worth of services from coordination of vendors, regular meetings with Heidi, budget planning, program and wedding day timeline planning, and day of coordination services. From the very first call, we could already tell that we would be in good hands. Heidi helped us narrow down what we were looking for by giving us plenty of options to choose from when it came to picking out vendors without ever pressuring us to make a decision. Without Heidi, we would not be able to plan a Hawai'i wedding all the way from California. She is very responsive to all forms of communication via email and phone. Our phone calls never felt like work because of how personable she is, and it felt like we were planning with a great friend. When it came to our wedding day, Heidi and her team ensured that our day turned out perfectly. They were very meticulous and made sure each vendor knew what to do and when. My husband and I were able to focus on our special day without needing to worry about any of the logistics. Our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception room set up turned out absolutely beautiful! See attached pictures as proof :). Thank you, Heidi, for making our day one that we and our guests will never forget!

Mona was recommended to us by a friend and we are SO happy that we found her!! She is so professional and knowledgeable and is also SO nice and compassionate. She really cares about her clients and I even feel like she was our mini therapist and would listen to our complaints and try to help us rectify certain situations. Initially we booked her for her day-of coordination services. But 6 months prior to our wedding date, my stress, fears, and anxiety started to kick in and I emailed her asking if we could do the wedding "wrap up" which starts at 3 months before the big day. She was luckily able to add that service on and I quickly realized I should have done that from the start. We had meetings (over zoom) with her to go over what was done and what needed to be done. After every meeting, we got a checklist of things to do which was PERFECT for me. I had all the big things booked, but its the small details and little things that we definitely needed help with. The checklist was great because I knew exactly what needed to be done and when it needed to be done. On the day of, her team was beyond amazing and everything went super smoothly. We had comments from our guests how everything transitioned so nicely and that's all thanks to Mona and her amazing team. Special shout-out to Aileen, who was also super helpful with emails and answering questions and making timelines! Thank you Mona and everyone at neu events for making our day stress free!! She is a LIFESAVER, save yourself the stress and book her for your big day!!

Mona was an absolute pleasure to work with. She ensured all small details were taken care of before and on our wedding day, which we really appreciated since we are an out-of-state couple. She is extremely professional, punctual, and is a very warm-hearted person. We had all of our weekly meetings via Skype and she was always free to answer any questions offline promptly. Mona even attended our catering finalization meeting for us. She has a great depth of knowledge and is dedicated to what she does. Our wedding day was the best day of our lives and it would not have been possible without Mona and her team. There was a horrible storm on the day of the rehearsal and Mona made sure that it was moved to an alternate indoor location. While we were discouraged about the unexpected weather, Mona never lost her composure or optimism. The weather cleared up beautifully the morning of our wedding and our dreams of having an outdoor ceremony came true. The entire day, from getting ready early in the morning to cleaning up at the reception, went according to Mona's schedule that she created for us. We hardly even remember any of the logistics since they were all taken care of by her. We were able to enjoy our special day instead of worrying about the details. We don't know what we would have done without her. We cannot thank or recommend Mona enough!
