    LIBBY is a wedding planning/directing virtuoso! Our day wouldn't have been the same without her! She is THE BEST!

    Ricky & Ivan – November 25th, 2023 at the Boulevard Private Event Space

    Our deepest gratitude for the extraordinary job Libby did as our wedding director. From the first meeting to the final send-off, she demonstrated an unparalleled commitment to perfection and an exceptional attention to detail that made our special day absolutely magical.

    The decor was nothing short of amazing—every element thoughtfully curated to create a breathtaking atmosphere that perfectly captured our vision. Her ability to transform our ideas into reality surpassed our expectations, and the result was a wedding that felt like a dream.

    One of the aspects we truly appreciate is how Libby managed to keep costs lower than we anticipated. Her resourcefulness and creative solutions not only saved us money but also ensured that we didn't compromise on the elegance and beauty of the event. Her financial acumen is truly commendable.

    Throughout the night, Libby’s guidance was invaluable, especially as the celebrations unfolded and we found ourselves, admittedly, a little more spirited than planned. Her calm and composed demeanor, coupled with your expert navigation, allowed us to enjoy every moment without worry. Her presence was like a guiding light, and we are genuinely grateful for her unwavering support.

    Libby’s input and advice were not only helpful but also showcased her deep understanding of the intricacies of wedding planning. Her design ideas were awesome, and her ability to bring them to life left us in awe. It's evident that she has a true passion for what she does, and it reflects in the excellence of her work.

    What sets her apart is not just your professional expertise but also the way she treats her clients. She didn't just feel like a wedding planner/director; she felt like a friend. Her cool, fun, and friendly approach made the planning process enjoyable, and her organizational skills kept everything on track and stress-free.

    Ivan and I are truly grateful for the positive energy she brought to every meeting. Her readiness and attention to detail reassured us that we were in capable hands. Libby’s dedication to making our day special did not go unnoticed, and we can't thank her enough.

    In short, LIBBY is a wedding planning/directing virtuoso! Our day wouldn't have been the same without her, and we will forever cherish the memories she helped create. Thank you, Libby, for making our wedding day the incredible, joyous occasion it was. Big hugs from Ivan and Ricky!!!

    Amazing Wedding Planner!

    We wish we could give more than 5 stars because Upon Occasion deserves it!

    We just got married this past June and worked with Libby. Libby with us from the start! She was absolutely amazing to work with and our wedding wouldn’t have been as amazing as it was without her! Aside from being the absolute best and so much fun to work with, Libby had incredible attention to detail throughout the whole planning process and especially on the day of the wedding! She helped us select all our vendors, offered consultation for colors pallets and designs, negotiated with our vendors, made sure all our scheduling was perfect for the day off, juggled all vendors we were working with, and managed all our families different personalities and needs!

    We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and truly couldn’t have done it with her! If you’re considering a wedding planner, she’s the best!

    Thank you Libby!! ❤️❤️

    Thank you Shelly and Mert for your most kind words and for trusting Upon Occasion with your big day!

    Amazing, Incredible, 10/10! Thank you!

    Libby was our month of coordinator for our wedding. When we started planning our wedding I never realized how many little details there were to planning the big day, when Libby and I first spoke, I thought to myself... "it can't be that hard!"; boy was I wrong! After meeting a couple of times with Libby I realized the devil is truly in the details and had it not been for Libby I don't think we would have been able to have the amazing stress-free wedding that we did. Even with month of coordination we started working with Libby a few months before the big day; in every appointment she was patient, understanding and explained exactly what we needed to set us up for success. She always went above and beyond for us and I knew that with Libby in the drivers seat, everything would be perfect!! She isn't just a wedding planner, but she is truly an amazing person; she cares about each and every single one of her clients. On the day of, everyone kept telling me how surprised they were at how calm I was, and Libby was the reason for that! If you are ever doubting whether you need a wedding planner or month of coordinator... the answer is that you need Libby; you will have a much more enjoyable day.

    Libby, we are so grateful for all that you do and thank you for making our day so special!

    Dear Yana and Mark,
    Thank you so much for your kind words and for trusting Upon Occasion with your most special day!

    Best in the Industry!!!

    Libby is the best in the industry!!! We can not speak any higher about her!!! She made our day perfect and so smooth. We are of different backgrounds and Libby did a great job of making sure there was a perfect balance of all our cultures and being a peace marker when needed. From the first meeting it felt like she was part of the family and made us super comfortable. Libby knows all the best vendors that worked for our budget and made our day super beautiful. Also, her assistant is amazing; she got on her hands and knees to clean the bottom of my dress before the ceremony. Anyone that is getting married should hire Upon Occasion if you want to have the most pleasant and fun experience planning and the smoothest lovely day. 10 out of 10 suggest!!!

    Upon Occasion's reply:

    Thank you Gayana and Juliano for your most kind words.
    It was an absolute pleasure to work with your beautiful families on this wedding! I am so incredibly happy that your day turned out exactly how we wanted it to be.
    Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness in your life journey ! ❤️

    100/10 Superstar Planner!!

    I don’t have enough words to describe how great of a wedding planner Libby was. From when we first met to discuss my wedding vision, I had told her how important it was for me to have everything planned in a way where I could take in every moment of the entire day without having to worry about the little things that needed to get done. This is exactly the type of experience I had on my wedding day and I wouldn’t have chosen anyone else to go through the planning process with. We got amazing compliments from our guests on how seamless the night went! If you are questioning whether you need a wedding planner of not for your big day, trust me you not only need one, but you need Libby. She is an absolute superstar!!

    Upon Occasion's reply:

    Thank you Amie and Daniel for trusting Upon Occasion with your big day.
    It was absolutely magical!
    Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness ❤️

    Our Wedding July 9th

    We started planning our wedding 1.5 years before the big day. Libby is a very professional and organized planner who clearly shows many years of experience in the event business. Libby was always on top of things and made sure everything was ready for our wedding. Although it was a stressful ordeal, she was able to prepare us perfectly. No wedding is perfect, but Libby made it very close to that. We are very thankful for her expertise, care, and professionalism. Thank you so much Libby!

    Thank you Yana and Rob for your kind words and for trusting me with your big day! It was a privilege to be a part of your most amazing wedding !

    Best wedding planner ever!

    It's impossible to fully express how genuinely grateful we are for Upon Occasion's dedication and support throughout our wedding planning process - but we'll try!

    Libby Eydelman is one of the greatest event planners and designers. From the moment we got engaged in March of 2021, we knew it would be essential to work with a trusted professional to help bring our wedding's vision to life. We dreamt of a modern, black/white hotel wedding with incredible food, music, and décor; that aesthetic is exactly what Libby helped us achieve. The photos of our wedding day speak for themselves!

    A true social butterfly with years of wedding industry experience, Libby has connections with all of the top vendors across Canada. From our venue (Four Seasons Hotel Toronto) to the band (Sole Power Live), photographer (Purple Tree), videographer (Hidden Light Films), stationery (So Pretty In Print), décor/flowers (R5 Event Design), and more, Libby helped us secure it all! She worked hard to negotiate our contracts to ensure we kept within our budget. She also helped us build an incredible event day itinerary, oversaw all logistics, and reassured us that everything would run as smoothly as possible and be perfect on the wedding day.

    Best of all, Upon Occasion offered hands-on support and guidance throughout the entire planning process. She was there whenever we needed her and was always more than happy to answer any questions. She was with us from start to finish, ensuring an elevated and seamless event planning experience. We had so much fun working with Libby. If we could do it again, we would choose Upon Occasion EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

    Thank you once again to Libby and Upon Occasion for making our wedding a celebration we will cherish and always remember! We can't wait for future mitzvahs and celebrations together.

    Love and gratitude,
    Zack & Ariella Glazer

    Upon Occasion's reply:

    Thank you Zack and Ariella for your most kind words and for trusting Upon Occasion team with your big day!
    It was a pleasure and a privilege to help you bring your vision to life.
    Libby ❤️

    Couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner!

    Libby from Upon Occasion is a phenomenal event planner! Our guests were raving about how fabulous our wedding was, and I want to do it again!

    We envisioned an elegant Russian-Egyptian fusion wedding, and Libby made it a BETTER reality in just 3 months from start to finish. She made it so easy, and we loved working with her! Libby is fundamentally a project manager and she did everything everywhere from the big picture down to the little details and wouldn’t rest until it was perfect. She’s extremely diligent and organized, professional, straightforward, and on top of her game leading the event, not to mention- hilarious; we just had the best time.

    Libby went above and beyond at every step. She even negotiated custom packages and services that were unconventional and in some instances, not permissible, but she made it happen, truly having our best interest at heart.

    She understood exactly what we needed and found the perfect vendors for us. Libby and the team made our day precious and unforgettable. It was such a happy wedding day for everyone, and I couldn't have asked for a better wedding planner than Libby!
