Reviews of Reverie
Rebekka Veith
Tori/Reverie planned the wedding I didn't even know I always dreamed of having! There are seriously not words adequate to describe in an internet review how thankful I am for all that Tori did for my wedding. From the very beginning stages of planning I felt like she understood my taste (which is saying a lot because I never really dreamed of a wedding and often spoke in vague terms of things I'd seen that I did not want) and throughout the entire year-ish that we worked together I was always confident that she had everything under control. She was especially helpful in navigating one or two tricky situations with vendors/potential vendors that I did not want to address on my own.
But all of that pales in comparison to how amazing she was the week and day of my wedding. It started a few days before when she calmly and quickly helped me secure what ended up being a very necessary additional tent for a rain plan, continued when she listened to me freak out about the impacts of an unexpected Covid spike perfectly timed with my wedding, and culminated in her spearheading a lightning fast set up of the venue (thanks in part to that rain) that perfectly executed the vision that again, I didn't even know I had. I think it is impossible not to have a good amount of stress the week of your own wedding, but every time I talked to Tori, I felt like things were going to work out. I also have to mention that she makes these intricate flowcharts for the day-of plan that everyone in my wedding party was amazed by.
Tori is calm, kind, and fully free of any judgment or pretenses -- just a consummate professional. I could go on for pages but I will end with saying that she is worth every penny you will pay for her (and more, honestly), and I highly, highly recommend her.

Reverie achieved their goals by fulfilling all of my dreams. Tori, the owner/operator/CEO/girlboss is a refreshing, organized, down to earth, and sweet go-getter.
I’m a project manager for a construction company, but wedding planning was NOT a project I would have dared to manage. I never dreamt about my wedding as a little girl, I didn’t care about flowers or color pallets, and I certainly didn’t have a “vision” for my wedding. I don’t know traditions and my family is as chaotic as they come. Tori took it all in stride, her calm demeanor and pointed questions reassured me that everything was under control. She helped create the best party I have ever attended from scratch.
Selfishly, Tori was the ying to my yang (other than my husband) as far as planning goes. The most important part of this review is this: Tori will be your ying or your yang too. She does not have a mold that you will have to fit into, Tori is a chameleon that customizes a mold for YOU by modifying her planning, decorating, and coordination styles to fit the needs of her bride (of each bride – but never once did I feel there were other brides in Tori’s life).
Whether it was family drama or relatives receiving cancer diagnoses, Tori was right there through all the major life events my husband and I experienced over the last year and a half. If I didn’t hear from Tori for 2 weeks, it just meant she was planning and coordinating without needing my input. When we would have our next phone call it was as if we spoke the day before, never skipping a beat and somehow keeping me on track despite the chaos. “What are you stressing about right now?” was her favorite question, and no matter where it was in the timeline she would help me tackle it to relieve that stress. From the beginning, Tori creates a safe space where honest opinions are rewarded, not just encouraged, because she’s planning YOUR wedding and making a mold to fit YOUR day. She is going to make all those vendors, suppliers, bartenders, band members, overbearing family members, and rogue guests follow in line with YOUR dream. But when you truly don’t know or have zero opinion, she finds one that falls in line with your style and all your Pinterest “goalz”. Her timeline sheets are INCREDIBLE work (art) of a true professional.
Did you forget to come up with a guest book and its wedding day? No problem. Tori to the rescue!
Did you cry at your rehearsal because of family drama? Tori had you cry it out for a minute, but get back out there and be present for these big moments.
Did your wedding dress get ruined in alterations 16 days before your wedding? Yes, and Tori was the #1 supporter asking for play-by-play updates and ready to spring into action or pull any string she could to fix that debacle.
While her work leading up to the big day was amazing, Tori truly thrived the day of and throughout the event that evening. The Reverie team managed all of our gifts, wedding favors, personal belongings, and challenging venue mishaps without the wedding party being bothered. I had absolutely no idea how stressful it was planning a wedding, juggling so many opinions and other people’s feelings weighed on me heavily. At the end of the day, Tori held it all on her shoulders and walked with grace. I don’t know what more a bride could ask for than to work with Reverie.
To summarize my lengthy review in 3 words: Authenticity. Organization. Peace of Mind.

Tori is absolutely AMAZING! I had her as my month of wedding planner and she was worth every penny and more! I have told all my friends who are brides to be or soon to be to book her asap! I was confident and calm leading up to the wedding because I knew she would flag me if anything needed to be addressed. I had no idea how much was thrown at you and decisions to be made the month of the wedding!! The day of the wedding, she was the rockstar. Everyone was on time because of her detailed and easy to read itinerary!! The best part is that I could relax, soak in the day and enjoy myself because she had it covered. No task was too much for her…little or big she was there (Even sweeping up confetti)!! Thank you Tori for everything!! Everyone who met you was so impressed by you and thankful you were our Drew Brees of the day!! If I could rate you 10 stars I would!! 💫

As a wedding photographer, I am always so excited to work with Tori! I have seen her navigate stressful situations (like a last minute rainstorm), be up to any task (seen pictured here sewing up a bridesmaid's ripped dress just an hour before they walked down the aisle), and keep a completely cool head through it all. Tori is someone who serves her clients and their best interests with ease and an extremely down-to-earth attitude - you will absolutely want to share a drink with her! Very few wedding planners have the delicate balance of detail-oriented PLUS laidback - Tori has all this and so much more. Tori, I love working with you and any couple that hires you is sooo lucky!

Brides, do yourselves a favor and book Tori as your coordinator. I booked Tori's elopement package and she made my wedding day run smoother than I could have ever imagined. She was in contact from the moment I booked her and took over communication with all my vendors the month of the wedding to ensure I had nothing to worry about. She was always available for recommendations or to calm my nerves planning a wedding from 1,000 miles away. I am now 2 months out from my wedding and my family is still talking about what a great day it was thanks to Tori's help. You 100% will not regret booking with Reverie!

If you are reading this review then you can be rest assured that you have found the best wedding coordinator out there. Tori was an absolute joy to work with. Tori is extremly thorough in all aspects of her work in wedding planning. She has a fantastic eye for the necessary touches you are looking for to make your day the dream you always wished for. Tori also has such a way with people, especially the bride. She knew exactly what to say and made sure all my bridal needs were met the day of my wedding. I met with a few other coordinators and none compared to Tori. Do yourself a favor and look no further, you are in the best hands with this one. Thank you so much Tori !!

Reverie is a Godsend, plain and simple. Tori took the notes and goals of what we wanted our wedding to be and created a beautiful ceremony and reception that was the event of our dreams. She was exceptional in her organization and planning, and she executed the event to perfection, despite our crazy families.
As a high anxiety person, this was the calmest I have ever felt at any event, despite it being my own wedding and having an insane desire to have everything be perfect. Tori communicates perfectly on every item and things that we never even considered! Her staff were amazing and they made sure to make the event run smoothly, even down to making sure that we (the bride and groom) had a steady supply of drinks. They even ran interference for us with family members who were being a bit obnoxious.
I absolutely cannot give enough praise to Reverie NOLA and Tori. If you're looking for a planner who will take care of you like you are her family, look no further.

Tori is an amazing wedding planner. We hired her right after we got engaged, so she helped us book and coordinate every aspect of our wedding. She helped us lock down some of our dream vendors and she had useful suggestions for ways we could save money throughout the process. She was always responsive to my texts and never made me feel like I was a bother. Since I was planning my wedding from afar, she even let me ship miscellaneous wedding items to her house to hold them for me until the big day! And on the day of the wedding, she was an extremely helpful and calming presence for everyone involved. The wedding went off without a hitch and we couldn't have been happier with it. Hiring Tori was one of our best decisions. She was an *extremely* good investment.

Tori was absolutely AMAZING! I planned our New Orleans wedding from Northern Virginia so I knew I needed to hire someone to handle all of the day of wedding details and I am so thankful that we chose Tori! She did an amazing job at answering all of my questions throughout the wedding planning process, providing recommendations for vendors, and calming my anxiety in the last few weeks of wedding planning. Tori's attention to detail, organization, and calm nature put me and my husband at ease. I seriously do not know what I would have done without Tori. I could not recommend Tori enough!
Ash Redd
Tori went above and beyond to create a night that was so much more than what we could have ever imagined for ourselves. It was truly perfect in every possible way- and it definitely would not have felt so effortlessly perfect without Tori!
From the beginning, she took the time to get to really get to know our vision for a perfect wedding, and was incredibly receptive to our ideas despite us not having any idea of how they would all fit together. She was there every step of the way checking in and staying in constant communication with us. She was especially great through uncertainties that arose with COVID regulations as well as some tricky family dynamics that came into play on the wedding day. There wasn't a thing we asked of her that she couldn't do, including last minute double sided tape for my dress and picking up the cake topper we forgot in the venue freezer while we were on our honeymoon!
To put it simply- Tori is the absolute BEST and I could not recommend her enough! If you're looking for someone who can both ease your wedding anxieties and put together the wedding of your dreams- look no further!

I cannot say enough great things about Tori. We had quite the adventure with wedding planning due to COVID and the hurricanes. Our original wedding planner fell through during COVID and we were frantic to find someone else. Tori is a friend of my uncles, and he recommended her right away. She was a literal Godsend! She came on board and we felt immediate relief. She was SO incredibly organized and top of it. Not to mention super flexible and kind. You could tell she cared. My mom and I were last minute on a few things and she literally prepared for the next day like she had all the information months before. She was present for all the walk throughs, which was particularly important to me since I live out of town. We went through 4 venue changes, and so I was convinced something was not going to be in place the for the day of, but Tori was SO good about making contact with all of the vendors and making sure they had all the right information and knew what to do the day of. I forgot my comfortable shoes the day of and she offered to go back to the hotel to pick them up after all the events!! (I said no thanks, but the fact that she would have!!) One of the most pronounced thing that Tori did was her ability to digitize everything. She created a draw to scale graph of the reception venue in order to figure out placement of tables, cake, food, chairs, etc. It was quite impressive. The other digitization that she did was our day of timeline. It was incredible and honestly, everyone who got a copy or saw a copy was SO impressed. My husband carried his around all night. LOL. It had a very detailed timeline for the wedding party, vendors, and even guests. It had a list of all the vendors including herself with her contact information. Again, I cannot say enough great things about Tori. You cannot go wrong with her. Thanks so much Tori!! -The Morgan's

Tori/Reverie was amazing. Thorough, organized, always there (even when the hurricane knocked out her power!) I never would have dreamed that my own wedding could run smoothly and on time but Tori and her team made it happen, and everything was perfect!

Our cakes were beautiful and delicious. The cakes were exactly the flavors we wanted and we could not have been happier with the entire experience.

Tori with Reverie was an absolute blessing. She goes above and beyond, always communicates and reassures you constantly. Wouldn’t have been able to do it with her!
Casey Carden
Reverie helped me plan my daughter’s first birthday— we had a band, catering, craft station for kids, and bartending services. Every detail was PERFECT!!!
I will definitely use Reverie again, and can’t recommend them enough for any event you may have!
