When my now husband and I started to plan our wedding there was question in my mind who would be helping us plan. It was so clear throughout the whole process that Sam not only loves what she does but loves that couples that she helps. She was so patient with me and every question and meeting that I needed. She not only calmed my nerves but was a blast to work with! It truly felt like we were working with a close friend that had all of our best interests in mind every step of the way. We can't thank her enough for helping our dreams come true and make our wedding dreams come true!

Love you!! thank you again for EVERYTHING!!

“With only a three-month engagement, we were moving rather quickly to assemble a vendor team for our wedding day. I had the unique opportunity to work under Samantha for several other weddings & events and truly see her WORK. I admired her fearlessness to dive in and problem solve quickly and efficiently. She wasn’t just the sweet lady with the clipboard directing traffic and lining up the bridal party, she also was the one lifting the heavy furniture across the reception area or making sure a “little” rain never affected anyone’s day (even if that meant standing in the pouring rain and harsh winds re-setting an entire ceremony space, protecting a display or people! When it came time for OUR day, I knew she was the one for the job. I’m so thankful for her positivity in withstanding the summer heat and taking care of every detail behind the scenes. We had a few unique requests to our evening and Sam and her team were there for us through it all. I continue to witness her VERY fun, loving care in more than my wedding but in other’s too, and she truly impresses me every single time! We LOVE Events by Rizzo!”

Events by Rizzo has completely changed the way I feel about events. She approaches the event with great confidence, is organized, and has amazing connections. Her rate is extremely reasonable and the vendors she works with are as well! The day of the event is smooth, everyone is positive and thanks to Sam, it’s a joyful day rather than one of stress. --
