A great decision!

Hiring Maxine to coordinate our wedding day was a great decision! I was able to fully relax and enjoy the day knowing that everything was in great hands with Maxine. She ensured that our day went off without a hitch and everything was seamless from beginning to end. I would definitely recommend Maxine to maximize enjoyment of your special day without worrying about any logistics/coordination - she will handle it all!

We picked Maxine for her wonderful attitude and the confidence she exuted. Always happy, smiling and fun. Her assistant Katrina was also wonderful and very present and available on the wedding day.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Maxine! Planning our wedding seemed like a breeze because Maxine was there through every step of the way. She is very quick to respond to questions, she is very organized and makes sure that you are on track with booking vendors and supplies, etc
 and her personality just makes you feel at ease throughout the whole wedding planning process.

I can’t wait for our 10th year anniversary so we can work with her again. I would highly recommend Maxine to anyone looking for a wedding planner.

Where should we start? We all know... a wedding can be stressful and a big headache. You want it to be the best day of your life and you want it to go as smoothly as possible so you can enjoy every second of it. All of this came true the day we met Maxine. Though we thought we had everything under control, Maxine ended up proving us that a wedding planner is much needed throughout this whole process. She took care of so many details (that we did not think about), was able to plan the whole day from make up appointment to speeches... without forgetting anything. She really made our lives easier. On the day of, Maxine was there to ensure that everything was flowing and that we would not stress about anything. She made sure the decoration at the venue was perfect (from chairs to centerpieces) and that our guests had everything they needed. The night was a success and she has a lot to do with it. Besides being friendly and pleasant to be around, Maxine is a professional and she is always available for you. She gives her full attention and never makes you feel like a burden, even after 100 texts messages about the height of the vases;) Adrian and I are very happy to have met her and we highly recommend her services. Merci Maxine!

Maxine of A Gorgeous Fete was a joy to work with - we found her pleasant from day 1 and a great person to have involved in the wedding planning process. She took the time to understand our vision and helped us with that along the way - we never felt pressured to "live up" to the wedding standards of other people, which we really appreciated. This allowed our day to be a true reflection of who we are, which is exactly what we wanted.

I would definitely recommend Maxine to be a part of your event! Thanks Maxine!

Maxine was nothing short of amazing. I was organising our 'after party' wedding reception from overseas, so I was looking for someone I could trust, the ability to get things done and most importantly to understand what I wanted to achieve for our special day. I arrived in Montreal a few days before the event and after our email exchanges, I met Maxine for the first time at the venue. The first few minutes of our chat, I knew that I had made the right choice and she just seemed to be on the same wavelength as me and understood what I wanted.

On the day, venue looked so amazing, you could really tell the hard work that had gone into our special day and there was great attention to those little details. Even the black cafe tables which I was worried about, looked fantastic. She has a real talent, and I could not have wished for anything more, and to me it was perfect in every single way. I remember walking upstairs and just being blown away about how beautiful and romantic it all looked. It was the perfect continuation of our wedding in Australia and exactly what I was trying to achieve (and more).

I'm quite a hands on person and having coordinated and organised the styling elements myself in Australia and not being able to be there to do things myself in Montreal, I wanted to find someone that I clicked with and understood exactly what I wanted, someone that I could trust t get everything done to how I envisaged it. And she delivered! We've had so many comments about how beautiful everything looked, people commenting about all the little details. It was a truly wonderful night and I have Maxine to thank for creating the perfect setting for so many memorable moments - thanks Maxine, you're a star!!
