I don't know that I could've survived my wedding weekend without Debbie. I was anxious and easily overwhelmed, and she made the process as painless as possible. Everyone from my drunk best friend to my 80+ year old grandmother had nothing but wonderful things to say about her. We couldn't have done it without you, Debbie!

Debbie and her team are incredible! We used Sunshine Events by Debbie as our day of coordinator for our wedding in September and I couldn't be happier with how our special day went! She communicated with us through every step of the process and I really appreciated her expertise and insight on key details. She was very helpful in recommending a setup and timeline that fit our vision for the day as well as getting our other vendors organized. Again, we are so pleased with how our wedding went all thanks to Debbie!

We really appreciated having Sunshine Events handle our wedding! The venue coordinator was awful, so handing over the reins to Sunshine Events took a load off our mind and they answered questions we didn't even know we had, and choreographed our day well. There were small hiccups, like the DJ announcements being so quiet our guests could barely hear them, and a few of our items not being set up even though we prompted them multiple times during setup. One table didn't even get any favors. But overall the peace of mind they gave us, and the time they freed up for us was absolutely worth it!

I was originally skeptical of Debbie, given that she does not come across as bubbly as some of the other planners in the area did, but I am SO GLAD that we decided to work with her. She is to-the-point, reassuring, and very calming in the midst of all the planning— I'd take that any day over fake-bubbly! Her experience is without a doubt one of the best things about working with Debbie; you don't doubt for a second that she knows what she's talking about and knows the ins-and-outs of working with certain vendors in the area.
She truly means it when she says you have full access to her (I emailed her a lot when coordinating with some of our vendors) and our wedding day went off without a hitch! We had no idea that there had been any issues with some of our vendors until we were saying goodnight to everyone.
She made us feel comfortable and confident in the day every step of the way, and if you're getting married at Linden Row she is basically their #1 recommended planner. She conducts a LOT of weddings there.
Debbie made our wedding day a piece of cake— there was no question unanswered, no issue left unmitigated (and without it coming back to us), no moment unaccounted for. She is superb at her job, and a joy to work with.
I can't recommend Debbie enough for any event and wedding coordinating need!

Have worked with Debbie for years and recently got to set up lighting for a wedding at The Science Museum. Despite a venue shift and the quick turnover in the Rotunda, Debbie was professional as always!Great working with you again!

We have been married almost 5 months as of this Friday! Debbie was wonderful and made everything so easy. It was one of the prettiest days ever, and our Valentine's Wedding will forever be in our hearts. She went above and beyond to ensure the Historical Hanover Courthouse was reserved, and made our ceremony so very special. Thank you Debbie!!!

Debbie was one of the best decisions we made when it came to planning our wedding at Linden Row Inn. My husband and I live out of state and we truly could not done it without her. On our wedding day, we were able to sit back and truly enjoy ourselves while Debbie ran the show perfectly. She understood our vision and I couldn't believe it when I got to see the reception space - truly a work of art.In the month leading up to the wedding, she did an exceptional job of keeping us cool and advising us on all things. My family and friends RAVED about her to us after the fact and she held the perfect Rehearsal. Do yourself a favor and hire her as soon as you start planning as she has fantastic connections and it will make the whole planning process a breeze. Debbie, thank you doesn't begin to explain our gratitude, you are beyond talented! xoxo Jill & Matt

Debbie was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our entire wedding planning process! She is extremely organized and communicative about what needs to happen when, and she was 100% trustworthy and reliable when it came to pulling through for us for our wedding. She did an absolutely incredible job, and I can honestly say that our wedding was perfect, many thanks to her for helping with some last minute details that she saved the day on. Beyond this, she has an extremely warm personality, and me and my husband got along with her super well!! Debbie is amazing, you should definitely hire her!! <3

Debbie at Sunshine Events is an amazing wedding coordinator! From our first meeting to her final follow-up after the wedding (providing name change paperwork), she was on point. Her attention to detail is impeccable, she was always available when I needed her and she handled my type A personality really well! :-) Our wedding went off without a hitch and turned out to be the best day of our lives. Thanks, Debbie, for being so awesome!!

We hired Debbie at Sunshine Events as our Month of Coordinator. Terrific decision and we couldn’t be happier. Debbie was a great “go to” in the weeks before the wedding and really kept things on track on the big day.

Debbie hands down is the BEST! There is no way our wedding day October 9th would have been that amazing without her! We selected the ‘day of coordination’- but its really like 2 months before the big day coordination. Debbie was available to answer any and all questions leading up to our day (all year!) She followed through with all vendors and if there were any hiccups- I was not aware of them! Which is what I wanted! She accompanied us on our final venue visit and had our best interest in mind with every question and point that arrived. She orchestrated the rehearsal and took charge the day of! I want to be her new assistant now! LOL I am so intrigued how she does everything; I just want to see it all from her perspective. We are truly thankful to have had found her. I knew from our phone consultation she would be our life saver- and she was. PLEASE add DJ TONY to your package as well!! There is NO other DJ to review! DJ Tony handled our ceremony playlist to a ‘T’; our introduction music, cocktail hour, dinner music, reception playlist- EVERYTHING. We even had purple up lighting throughout our event. If none of that has swayed you- what other DJ dances with the 4 year olds on the dance floor?! He made their night!! We absolutely LOVE this team!! Please set up a consult- you won’t be disappointed!!

As a wedding photographer, I get so excited when I get the privilege to photograph a wedding with Sunshine Events by Debbie. The owners and staff at Sunshine Events go above and beyond to ensure the couple has the best wedding experience possible. Being able to work with a experienced team is so important to make the most of your wedding day. For me, it results in better photos because I'm not wasting time running around wrangling the wedding party as well as we stay on the timeline to keep the party as stress free as possible. Debbie's service is well worth the investment!

Debbie and Tony were the DJ duo of our dreams! My husband (!!!) and I both come from families that share a love of singing, dancing, and music through the generations. Debbie and Tony shared an excellent variety of songs to choose from, and did not hesitate to add to them when we requested many selections of our own. They met our needs with love, understanding, and a personal connection you just don't see with every DJ. One of my favorite compliments of the night, from another wedding vendor no less - "Greatest wedding playlist of all time - I feel like I'm right at home listening to my record collection with my closest friends and family." It was the exact feeling of comfort and happiness that Justin and I were hoping to create, all in thanks to these two!

I cannot express how grateful I am to Debbie during the times of the COVID pandemic. She reached out early to provide advice, and when the wedding had to be cancelled, she immediately granted us a deposit refund with no questions asked. She even sent us a sweet card. This speaks to her professionalism and selfless dedication to the brides and grooms! I can’t wait to use her in the future.

Debbie is the best around. If you are looking to have a stress free wedding day, you need her.
