Lustre Events

If you choose Melissa & Morgan of Lustre Events as your wedding planners you will get a creative dream team that comes with a portfolio of incredible vendors. Your day will be more amazing than what you dreamed it could be. They came highly recommended by others in the industry and when we first met them all we had was a date and venue. We knew we wanted to create something magical and what we co-created with them was a wedding that is still talked about by our guests as the best wedding they have EVER been to! We especially love that they are such a combination of passionate enthusiasm and out-of-the-box thinkers. They have what it takes to handle your day with ease and grace and keep you sane and relaxed through it all. They are beyond lovely!

I could have not asked for a better duo to make our special day come true. They were there for every step of the way from start until the end. We signed up for the full package, which included the design of the wedding day. As someone who only a vague idea of what they wanted for their wedding, this was an amazing service. M+M was there to listen to what we liked and do not like when designing our wedding. The planning process was just amazing. Although responses may be a bit slow it is because they will try to get everything sorted out with the vendors before they get back to you. So do not fret. They handled all communication with vendors, which lifted the stress from our busy schedule. Never once did I felt the pressure to pick some design ideas that they proposed. I absolutely love our final meeting where we go over the rundown of the day of the wedding. They took into our request to change some items or events. I’ve been to several weddings where the morning of the wedding is usually chaos and stressful. However, on the morning of my wedding, I was so relaxed because I knew M+M had handled everything so well. I was able to enjoy the process of getting ready with my girls while munching on scones and sandwiches. Our wedding was truly a dream come true from the décor to layout. I had family and friends come up to me after the wedding praising the work of art that M+M has done. Not to mention, they raved on how sweet M+M were. To anyone planning their wedding, this duo is the fairy godparents to wedding planning and you will not regret having them by your side.

We knew we needed a wedding planner because (1) I wanted a barn wedding and had no clue where to begin; and (2) we had no time whatsoever to plan our own wedding! Enter Mel and Morgan. We had met with a few different planners prior to meeting with them but as soon as they whipped out photos of previous barn weddings they had done, we knew we had to go with them! Lustre Events took care of every single aspect that I dreaded (decor, flowers, prop rental etc.). I had a rough idea in my mind and they would take it away and refine it until it became an exquisite detail. THAT takes talent as well as a strong commitment and dedication to a job well done! Mel came with me to every vendor meeting that I needed help with and took over when she knew I was exhausted and/or just needed her to step in and make the decisions on my behalf. Everyone came up to me after the wedding saying how beautiful the venue, the decor and the design was and honestly the vision came together only because I had Mel behind me the whole time. Get a wedding planner like Lustre Events and you honestly don't have to stress about a single thing on the day of your wedding. Most brides look back and say that their wedding day was probably one of the most stressful days of their lives, running around, ensuring things are moving according to plan. For me, my wedding day was one of the most fun days of my life. It was completely stress-free and not once did I ever cared about the schedule or even glanced at it. That's really the crux of hiring an awesome wedding planner. Lustre Events moved seamlessly and effortlessly behind the scenes the whole day and made my wedding day such a dream!

After a two-year engagement we had a great wedding planned for 120 guests, then COVID hit. My fiancée and I were committed to our original October wedding date, but understood we couldn't host the party we originally planned. We procrastinated planning and considered eloping until the end of August until our photographer recommended we reached out to Morgan and Melissa. From the first meeting until our wedding five weeks later, they were everything you could dream of in a planner. They listened to our hopes and dreams, then in the ever-changing COVID restrictions, they produced a vision and executed flawlessly. In a compressed planning period they avoided 'decision-exhaustion' by asking the right questions and doing all of the legwork to present great options. What is usually a stressful planning excised in the best of condition, they made a fun and easy under the most challenging conditions. Their combination of foresight, organization, and a great support team (caterers, staffing, rentals, etc). This served us especially well when the neighbours called in a COVID complaint and M+M were able to quickly demonstrate compliance with all COVID-restrictions to the police officer who attended the scene. What could have been a massive disruption to our special day was dealt with before any of the guests even realized it was a possibility. My wife and I are eternally grateful to M+M for every second of the best day of our lives.

While we actually haven't had our wedding yet, I feel compelled to leave a review now because our experience with Lustre has been SO great. In the midst of the pandemic that has thrown all our plans awry, Melissa and Morgan have been relentlessly positive, helpful and accommodating. We've had very little stress about all this due to the simple assurance we have that Lustre is going to take care of things. If there's a litmus test for wedding planners, it's doing so during a worldwide pandemic. Lustre has passed with flying colours, and we couldn't be happier that we went with them. Recommend 100%

When we decided to have our wedding this year, we knew it would be extra challenging due to the pandemic, so we decided to hire a wedding planner. Melissa and Morgan immediately resonated with us, and by the end of our initial call we already felt like we would be in excellent hands! Initially, all we had was a venue and a date, but they helped us navigate through vendors with their guidance and expertise. When issues arose - which is bound to happen, especially during a pandemic! - they kept calm and reassured us that all would be well. Their experience in all sorts of scenarios pre- and post-pandemic was apparent as they kept a steady eye on our special day. Even when our anxiety levels rose, and obstacles came up - even on the wedding day! - Melissa and Morgan kept calm and ensured we had the most beautiful wedding. Their specialty is also making sure wedding dreams come true, and they delivered on that! In the beginning, it was hard for us to picture what our wedding would be like. After filling out their detailed questionnaire, Melissa and Morgan put together a design plan for us that immediately blew us away. They had figured out our perfect wedding before we even knew it ourselves! They created a colourful, garden wedding that reflected our personalities, complete with a DeLorean cocktail hour surprise for all our guests (BTFF is the bride's favourite movie!)! They pride themselves for making memorable experiences for the bride, groom and all wedding guests. It's now been over 2 months and we are still getting compliments from everyone about how wonderful and memorable our wedding was! We owe it all to Melissa and Morgan at Lustre Events! We'd highly recommend them to anyone!

As a wedding photographer who has worked with Lustre Events multiple times, I cannot recommend them enough! Melissa and Morgan are not only two of the kindest people in the wedding industry, but they have a genuine gift for creating event designs that are a true reflection of each couples personality. Every wedding that I have had the pleasure to work with them on has been flawlessly executed down to the smallest detail. They are truly at the forefront of their field! I'd strongly recommend any couple who is looking to host a unique, fun, and personalized wedding day to hire Lustre Events! They will bring your vision to life in such a meaningful way!

We truly cannot say enough good things about Melissa & Morgan of Lustre Events. Firstly, if you're on the fence about hiring planners, it is 100% worth the investment. I cannot stress this enough. We had interviewed several planners and ended up landing on Lustre Events for full services. Melissa and Morgan were the most patient, understanding, excited, creative, and so much more. They brought our vision to life, while staying within our budget (their services included!). We had originally booked our wedding in 2018 for 2019, and it got pushed twice due to COVID. Melissa and Morgan helped us coordinate the new dates with all of our vendors, and still stayed as excited about our wedding as when we first spoke to them. The number of questions you end up having and details that go into a wedding our endless. I don't know where we'd be or how our wedding could have been pulled off without Lustre Events. It was absolutely flawless, despite severe weather thunderstorms, thanks to this dream team. Thank you Melissa & Morgan!!!
