Dear Leslie,
Troy & I want to extend our thanks & appreciation for helping create a memorable wedding day! From the planning stages to the LED candles in the trees, the beautiful beach ceremony, table setting & ice cream sundaes – Everything exceeded our expectations. It was a day we will always remember and one our family & friends won’t soon forget.
All the Best,
Robyne & Troy
Leslie,
Words can’t begin to be enough to thank you for all that you did for our wedding. You made our wedding weekend absolutely PERFECT. Not only did you make sure that the weekend ran completely seamlessly & flawlessly, but you did it with a smile & a genuine love of your job. I never had a worry that weekend because I had complete trust in you. You allowed me to truly live in the moment of my wedding weekend. It was the best weekend of my life thanks to you. You took my vision of my Sandy Island wedding & made it more beautiful & perfect than I had ever dreamed it could be. I am forever grateful for your organization, creativity & friendship. I hope this is only the start of a long friendship. I am so grateful to have you in my life and a part of my wedding day.
Love,
Laura (+ Mike)
To the heroes of our wedding day,
Our day wouldn’t have been a fraction of what it was because of you. All of you truly are the most hard working, patient, kind and calming women on this planet.
We had the time of our lives (as the Dirty Dancing song says) and were truly blown away by how perfect and FUN our wedding was, and we are forever in debt to you for that.
Marisa, you handled a tough situation with grace, patience and gentleness that not many, if any, people could. You are outstanding! I will continue to sing your praises to anyone who will listen! A million thank yous!!
Love,
Heather & Matt
Thank you for all that you did for us! Our day was truly amazing and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you!
Love,
Nicole & Andrew Elwell
A HUGE THANK YOU for everything you and your team helped to deliver and execute on our special day. We realize now we absolutely could not have done it without you guys. In fact we don’t know how others do it without the help of a team on the ground the day of!
The day and evening flowed so smoothly and we were blown away that all our vendors were able to work directly with you without a glitch! We LOVED the linens and the nautical rope on the napkins and around the flower centerpieces. We also loved the homemade monkey fists for the table numbers.
The jams looked great! Thank you for making the labels and I loved the different nautical themed figures for each table. Thank you for individually tying each ribbon on the jams. A detail we certainly noticed and appreciated!
Huge thanks for helping us put together our program on such short notice!! In the end I think it worked out well with the three-piece program, which is originally what we were inspired by for an outside wedding program!
We’re sure it must have been a long day and evening for you and your team and hope you enjoyed the fruits of your labor as much as we did!
Group Hug,
Richard and Lisa
Hello Leslie!
Still dreaming about our magical wedding. One of my co-workers thinks a new Disney Prince and Princess were made on Saturday đ Everything was PERFECT if that is at all possible.
Thank you SO MUCH for making the event the best wedding ever and so incredible for us. We really felt like it was a fairy tale and we enjoyed ourselves so much. It did not fly by like everyone said it would; that is all because of you. I could slow down and enjoy it because I was not worried. Loved every minute of it!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
Love,
Alexis
Hi Marisa,
Just wanted to thank you and Leslie and all your colleagues for your help planning the rehearsal dinner — it went very well — we were delighted with Morton’s. The food was excellent, and the service was also. Many thanks again to all the Belles!
-Susan Helm (Mother of the Groom)
Leslie, Molly, Marisa, and Corinne,
Thank you all immensely for all the hard work over the past year to make our wedding day so amazing. Erika was very well taken care of; what a difference it made having you helping out. It really was an amazing day, above and beyond. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
With Love,
Adam and Erika
Leslie,
I couldn’t have done this without you! Thank you for all of your support and wisdom! You made this a truly unforgettable experience and I am forever grateful. Thank you for helping to make our wedding dreams come true!
Becca & Matt
Just wanted to say THANK YOU again, for everything. You guys were amazing! I really wanted to tell you just how much I (and Jerry) appreciate all of your hard work. Your whole team was amazing, from beginning to end – so organized, so enthusiastic. I loved the emails and text messages with little updates too. The day of went so smoothly, thanks in very large part to your work. Leslie, all of my bridesmaids commented that they had never seen a more orderly, organized, and calm wedding rehearsal than the one you did for us. And we finished early! Fabulous. And that afternoon, Marisa was an angel, coming all the way to the park with us and helping us with everything, in the freezing cold, I was so nervous at that point and Marisa was so helpful in keeping everything going and with such an upbeat attitude. Thank you! And then Leslie, Marisa, Corinne and Molly, you were so awesome at the reception – it was so helpful to get a heads up when the dances and toasts and everything was coming, even Rollin’s singing with the band. Everything looked perfect and went so smoothly. Thank you also for all the work behind the scenes which I didn’t see, but I’m sure it was a lot. You guys are so good at what you do, and I honestly don’t know how we would have done this without you. Thank you SO much!
Thank you!
Patty
Dear Leslie,
We really appreciate all that you did to make Jolene and Nick’s wedding so special! We know that you poured your heart and soul into this wedding! Everyone that attended had a fabulous time and told us that it was the Best wedding that they had ever been to. Thank you!
Hugs,
JoAnn + David
Dear Rachael,
I don’t know what we would have done without you on our wedding day! I knew having a day of coordinator would be helpful, but I could have never imagined how comforting it would be to know you had it all under control.
Thanks again for all your help.
Love,
Lauren & Dan
Dear Rachael,
I did want to let you know how grateful I am for the help you offered over the last few months. You were so incredibly professional and easy to work with. You gave me comfort in knowing that you would be able to take care of all the details and make decisions. You were a calm presence when I especially needed it. Things were crazy the morning of, and you rose to the occasion without adding to the stress. My mother especially found comfort in that you would tend to all the details that she would normally take care of and that was just as important to me as the other things were.
I had great feedback from all my guests who met you. Everyone commented on how friendly and helpful you were. I loved that you also took care of all the vendors- I saw you steal everyone away to eat on the deck and that was so nice because I knew that I didn’t have to worry about anyone.
Rachael, you exude professionalism and calmness which is the exact mix I needed for things to go smoothly at my wedding. I am so fortunate that you were the ‘Belle’ that was assigned to me because I could not have imagined working with anyone else.
I cannot thank you enough for all your help.
Lauren
Leslie,
Ariana and I would like to thank you so much for helping us throw one of the most memorable events of our lives! You truly have a gift and we could certainly not have had the day we did without you and your belles! You and your business have undoubtedly left a lasting impression and we can only hope that you will plan more parties for us in the future, but in the meantime we must catch up soon!!
Thank you again,
Ariana, Travis + Madison
Dear Leslie,
Between you and Trish, I did not have to worry about a thing. The whole day was absolutely perfect; we wouldnât change a thing. It just went by way too fast like everyone said it would.
Thank you again,
Katie + Mike
Leslie, Rachael & “Belles,”
You guys are the best! Thank you for all your hard work and long hours putting Stephanieâs bridal shower together. Everything was AMAZING!!!
Love you,
Melissa & “Mom”
Leslie and Rachael,
I cannot thank you enough for making my ceremony absolutely perfect! I know you have probably heard that a million times before but words just arenât enough. Planning a wedding (especially from a distance!) is one task that most certainly could not have been pulled off without your expertise. From making sure the entire flow went smoothly, to the dĂ©cor and making sure I spit my gum out before walking down the aisle, (my photographer would NOT have liked me chomping on gum!) you were both incredible to work with. Thank you again for everything!
All my love,
Leah
Dear Leslie and Rachael and Wedding Belle,
Wow! Thank you for giving us the wedding of our dreams. Your expertise, creativity and design were outstanding. You made everything so easy and took the worry out of our wedding weekend so we were able to enjoy it. Great job to all of you.
Best Wishes,
Ana and Gerard
Hi Leslie, Rachael and Staff,
Before I send you a “written formal thank you” we just want you to know everything from rehearsal to the final minutes of the reception was absolutely spot on and perfect!! Everything was exceptional – what a day! Can’t wait to see the video and all the images. I can’t even begin to count the number of people who said over and over what a wonderful wedding it was from start to finish.
Christina has repeatedly said that it was the best day of her life – all worth it for sure! She was stunning all though I am a bit prejudice. All your time and efforts were great and it showed.
Many thanks,
Tina and Matt
Dear Leslie,
I just had to put pen to paper to thank you again for all you did for me regarding Kate & Jeffâs wedding. Your efforts, attention to detail, solid judgment, willingness to listen to all our concerns and experienced coordination and execution made the day fabulous. Kate and Jeff have great memories, all their friends & our friends & our family had a great time, and we just could not be happier that we enlisted you to help us!
Thanks so much Leslie, especially taking us on during your recovery â You were great!Fondly,
Marcia
Dear Leslie,
Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Our wedding day would not have been the success it was. We really appreciate how you managed all of the details so that we were able to relax completely. Thanks again to your staff who were wonderful and thorough! Have a great rest of your wedding season.Love,
Maggie & Matt
Leslie,
Thank you for whipping Jacqueline & me into shape⊠And for allowing us to get some sleep these last couple of weeks.Cheers,
Arlene
Dear Leslie,
Well it is basically one year since I have been married & I am just sending my thank you notes out now. We would like to thank you & Danielle for all of your help before & at our wedding.
Everything at that point was such a blur it was great to have you both there to steer us in the right direction. Best,
Ara and Chris Pickford
Leslie,
I have to begin by apologizing for not even talking to you since the wedding. It is awful and we have been so busy, but no excuse. Anyways more importantly we cannot even begin to thank you enough for all that you did for us. It would not be better said any other way than telling you that our wedding day was the most awesome day ever! It is all and more than we could have ever dreamed of. Our awesome adventure began with the planning and preparing that you made easy and stress free. Your creative geniuses added so much uniqueness, which is exactly what we wished for.
The wedding day itself was unbelievable. You truly were everywhereâŠand Frank never had an empty mug! You and your vendors made it truly unforgettable. You were an awesome person to work with and we are truly going to miss the get-togethers and emails! When you have a free weekendâŠkids, pond punch, and bathing suits!
Love Always,
Amy, Frank, Mark, and Donna
Dear Leslie and the other “Wedding Belles”,
After getting engaged, finding a great coordinator was my first and highest priority. I definitely made the right choice – asking you all to play a very integral role in my big day. I cannot thank you enough for taking charge and bearing most of the burden and stress associated with a looming wedding – especially during the hectic holiday season. Thank you for bringing everything and everyone together seamlessly so that I could actually enjoy the whole thing. Without you, I would have definitely eloped! Thank You!!!Emily
Posted on the Knot NH Boards by Emily:
***Hiring a coordinator for the month before. She arranged all the vendors, made sure I didn’t forget about anything, & insured that the day ran smoothly. My mom & I were able to be guests rather than “go to” people. The best money we spent.
Dear Leslie,
Thank you so much for all of your help with the wedding – you were such a wonderful support throughout the process! We’ve just gotten back from an amazing honeymoon and now off to enjoy life as Mr & Mrs PotterâŠBest of luck to you with all your upcoming weddings! Much Love,
Katherine & Colin
Dear Leslie, Danielle and Emily,
We had a wonderful time at our wedding and couldn’t have asked for anything more! Everything went so smoothly and looked beautiful – and we have you all to thank. Your planning, decorating, and friendly personalities were greatly appreciated. We’ve been singing your praises to all our friends.
I loved the entire experience and weekend and loved that I didn’t have to worry about anything. Although I am a worrier, so I only worried a little bit. I think you guys did a fabulous job and any thing that I mentioned that day, like different music to walk out to and dance to, was taken care of as if I had asked a week earlier. Having the professional assistance of the Wedding Belle was a fantastic blessing for our wedding. We could not have asked for better service than what we received from you all. Thank you!Thank You,
Kat and Jeff
Leslie,
The only sad thing about my wedding is that my special time with you is over! Thank you for everything – you’ve done an amazing job! I’ll be sure to refer you to every person I meet! Love,
Lisa
Leslie,
We cannot begin to thank you enough for our wonderful wedding experience. It has been so much fun planning the past year. The best part about this is that we gained a great friend out of all of this. Here is to many more years of fun!Love,
Katrina & Matt
Dear Leslie,
The greatest day of our lives could not have been possible without you! From the moment we started working with you, you were able to somehow make all of the stress of planning fun. Your ideas and creativity helped make our wedding so enjoyable to our guest. For me, you were a true blessing. I feel like you were a friend to David and I , and we will never be able to thank you and your assistant enough. Truly, we have received unending compliments about what a wonderful wedding it was and a huge factor in that was you. And, thank goodness the sun came out too! You are one of the most professional, organized, people I have met with a wonderful spirit. Words canât say enough. Fondly,
Nora & David
Hello Leslie,
Now that things have settled down for us and we have had time to reflect back on our entire wedding experience, we cannot help but be reminded of all the help you provided us. When we first met with you we were behind in our planning. You had the best attitude of anyone we met with right from the beginning and it was a simple decision to choose you to help us make our wedding everything we dreamed of. That was a decision we never regretted! We met often in the beginning to get us on track with less than nine months to the big day. Once we had all of our vendors booked, something very surprising happened. Even though we started behind schedule, after about two months of focused meetings, we found ourselves with down time in the planning. We were caught up and had about two months to just daydream of how great everything would turn out.
I cannot begin to tell you how much of a help you were to us. The biggest help would have to be the timelines that you were constantly updating and providing us to make sure that nothing was left to the last minute to stress us out. We originally decided to hire a wedding planner because we were having an outdoor wedding at a private residence and the thought of possibly neglecting something important in regards to the weather was a bit frightening. This is New England after all and we know enough to try our best to be prepared for anything. That being said, I would recommend your services to anyone regardless of where and when it will happen. Your services were absolutely priceless to us. You made every single decision easier because of your experience and knowledge. You really kept us focused on what would be important to us on our Big Day.
Speaking of the Big Day, I never would have expected the calm that came over me before the rehearsal dinner. I was actually able to go to lunch with my wedding party and get ready for the rehearsal with no stress. That means so much to me! I showed up and saw the tent set up and everything we had planned taking shape, and I was overwhelmed with joy, but no stress in sight. Everything went so unbelievably smoothly that I am still surprised by it almost 3 months after the fact. I did not come out to the wedding site until just before the ceremony even though I was only 10 feet away, because I KNEW that everything was under control. Once I saw how everything came together I was overwhelmed with emotion. Everything looked better that I could have hoped. It was exactly as we had envisioned and the entire day went off without any sort of problems at all. I heard friends say several times that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. I can absolutely say that it was the best wedding John and I could hope for. It was everything we wanted; bright and colorful and yet relaxed and fun, very Caribbean. Thank you for all of your help and all of your hard work. You went above and beyond what we could have hoped for every step of the way. You were a blessing that we never could have expected. You are forever entwined with our memories of our wedding and we cherish all of those memories. Thank you for everything!
Melissa
Hi Leslie,
I just wanted to tell you how happy we are that we chose you as our coordinator. You were so very helpful but also professional and very personable. You really have a gift for what you are doing and I am so glad that we met each other. Like I said to you many times, when we spoke I felt like I was speaking to a friend not just my coordinator. You really put a lot of time and effort into our wedding being sure that no detail was left behind. You always kept your cook even when I am sure that I was annoying you with all of âchecks and double checksâ! You were definitely worth every penny and then some. I am sure that our wedding day would not have been nearly as perfect as it was without you and your staff there to assist. Thank you again for everything!!Talk to you soon,
Bonnie
Dear Leslie,
Thank you very much for your tremendous effort to make Ashleyâs wedding a fabulous event for all of us. To name a few:
- Your knowledge of vendors;
- Your detailed approach to all details and aspects of projects
- Your many, many hours;
- Your management skills â including the managing of the groomsmen and patience with the wedding planners
You did a grande job and I would recommend your services anytime! Sincerely,
Carolyn (Mother of the Bride)
Dear Leslie,
We really appreciate the time and effort you spent making sure all of the details were taken care of on our wedding day. You really did a terrific job which enabled us to relax and enjoy the day. As we found out through this process, itâs the details that require the most attention and we were so happy that you were there for us! Best wishes on your continued success as the wedding belle!Sincerely,
Allison and Tom
Dear Leslie,
Thank you again for all of your work to Carl and Amyâs wedding so beautiful. I think they were thrilled with the tent layout, the flowers and the flow of the entire day. Thank you for keeping us all on schedule. It was truly a remarkable day.All the best in the future,
Patty (Mother of the Bride)
Dear Leslie,
I can not find the words to adequately express the depth of my gratitude to you and Melissa for making my wedding day the happiest day of my life. You know, I âm not one of those girls who has spent years dreaming of her wedding day. I really only started imagining my wedding about a year ago. As my vision of how I wanted the day to go developed I did start to fantasize about what a happy day it would be for me and Anthony and our guest. In my wildest dreams I could not have imagined a day like we experienced on Saturday. It was SO fun, SO romantic, SO amazing, SO incredible! I donât think weâve stopped smiling yet. Iâm still on cloud 9âŠso is Anthony. It would not have been the fantastic day that it was without you and all that you did for us. I didnât worry about a thing that day, not ONE thing! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You worked so hard. Iâm amazed at your staminaâŠnot to mention your attention to detail and your grace under pressure. You are surely in the right profession.Again, thank you, thank you, thank you⊠from me, from Anthony and from all of our guests,
Kathrin
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter shall serve as a reference for Leslie Barbini and The Wedding Belle. I engaged Leslieâs services this past summer to help coordinate my daughterâs wedding.
Leslie went above and beyond, patient with my daughter who tended not to return phone calls or make decisions.
Leslie coordinated all of the arrangements with us seeking our thoughts and providing advice when needed. She handled all of the hassles with the resort, always going the extra mile with a smile.
She was easy to work with and always available when an issue surfaced that required resolution. No problem or concern was too small. She even arranged doggy day care and worked us to ensure that the dogâs role in the wedding went smoothly.
I cannot emphasize how much I appreciated her knowledge and expertise and I highly recommend her services to anyone wanting to make their wedding plans stress free and as perfect as possible.
Leslie was an integral part of making my daughterâs day truly one to remember. Sincerely,
Shirley (Mother of the Bride)
To all Brides:
Leslie was our wedding coordinator in July of 2006. First of all, when Leslie is there you finally feel, amongst all the chaos of planning the biggest day of your life, that everything is going to be all right (sheâll keep telling you that until you believe her). Leslie has an impeccable eye for detail, she will think of things you didnât even know existed, or would normally take for granted. She is fantastic at flawlessly pulling everything together from behind the scenes, but when you need her sheâs right there, whether itsâ to help you to the ladies room or rub grass stains out of your dress. I honestly donât know now how we could have pulled off such an amazing day without her. I can sincerely say Leslie is the best there is!Anne-Marie
Dear Leslie,
Don and I can’t thank you enough for all you did to make Jodi and Shawn’s wedding such a success. Everything ran so smoothly. Quite a few of my friends remarked about how calm I was and I had to point to you each time.
Where do I begin? From the very beginning you took charge and made life so much easier for me and especially for Jodi.. You had such a calming effect on her! The appointment schedules with the various inns and restaurants were great. Same with the florists and the photographers. You covered all the bases with ease and a smile on your face. The most helpful was the spread sheet with the price comparisons. Don especially liked that!
On the day of the wedding you organized, directed and took care of the details in a subtle way and always with a smile! The reception was the best. Don and I enjoyed the time as did all our guests. You were there for all the details and everything ran smoothly. Just think, I have 2 more wedding to plan!!
Again, thank you for your professionalism and ability to deal with the bride! Our special event was one we all enjoyed due to your hard work.
Thank you,
Arlene (Mother of the Bride)
Leslie and Rachael,
We all very much enjoyed your creation and presence at Madeleineâs Daughter this past Saturday. There was a great vibe in the store and I hope that it comes back in your favor. Thank you for participating.
Kindly,
Elizabeth
Leslie,
Thank you for everything! Iâm so glad that I met you and really appreciate everything that youâve done for Sean and I. Thank you for making our dream wedding become a reality.
Erin and Sean
The Wedding Belles: Leslie, Emma, Corinne, Molly, and Rachael,
Thank you so much for all you did. You were amazing. We could not have had this wedding without you! Every detail was taken care of. We are so greatful!
Xoxo,
Gwen and Mike
Dear Leslie,
I want to thank you again for the exceptional job you did helping us plan Jolene and Nick’s wedding. We had a vision of what we wanted and You made that vision become a reality. The room looked spectacular!! We have gotten so many wonderful comments from friends and family that were there. In fact, when I stopped into the Wentworth Sunday afternoon to get some of the flowers, I saw one of the servers (Jo-Ann) that helped at the wedding and she told me that she has been at the Wentworth for six years and our wedding was the best by far of any wedding that she has been a part of!
I know that you poured your heart and soul into this wedding and I want you to know that we really appreciate it!
I still have company, but will touch base with you at the end of the week and stop by with your containers. I have to pick up some makeup from Joanne at Joya Beauty at the same time.
Hope you had fun picking apples on Monday and got some much-needed rest.
All the Best,
Jo Ann
