Eclipse Event Co. - Austin, Texas

Stacy, Kristi, Lauren, Art, Hailey, and everyone else at Eclipse have been absolutely incredible to me and my photography clients over the years. I'm not using hyperbole when I say I have never been a part of an eclipse event that didn't run smoothly - always a joy to work and create with!

As the husband, I wasn’t deep into the wedding planning, but I know my wife has high expectations and a lot of specific requests. Kristi from Eclipse Event Co. did an amazing job keeping everything on track and managing all the details, big and small. She kept the process organized and took a lot of the stress off both of us. If you want someone who can handle anything thrown their way and keep things running smoothly, Kristi is the one you need. She delivered on every level and made sure the day was exactly what we wanted.

There are truly not enough stars in the rating system to express how amazing having Lauren Chumbley as our wedding planner & coordinator has been. After having our venue fall through multiple times - Lauren stepped in and quickly helped stabilize our pathway to a wedding and helped us prepare, problem-solve, and follow-through every step of the way. On the day of our wedding the weather was totally ambiguous but she had layered so many flexible plans that even though we were on the backup of the backup, we said our vows under a tent with exactly the intimate and natural setting that we had wanted as rain gently started falling halfway through the ceremony. Throughout the day Lauren had the most calm, reassuring, and practical attitude - I cannot imagine anyone better at this craft.

Additionally, her recommendations on vendors were focused to our personalities and spot on every time. She never made us feel like we were behind schedule but always kept us focused on the most important thing at the time and would even circle back around when she could see us struggling with a decision.

I can't and don't want to imagine what throwing a wedding without her would have been but our wedding was the most magical I can imagine and she was such a crucial part of that. I recommend working with her without any reservation - hiring Eclipse was the smartest money we spent on our wedding.

Working with the Eclipse Team is always a fantastic experience. Their team brings such a high level of organization, professionalism, and laughter to every event, making wedding days at The Grand Lady flow effortlessly. They take care of every detail so thoughtfully, creating a relaxed and happy atmosphere for everyone. The designs they create are absolutely gorgeous and our clients love working with them! Eclipse is a pleasure to collaborate with, and we’re always thrilled when they’re part of our team here. We can’t say enough good things about them—they make each wedding memorable, flawless, and beautiful!

Tessa from Eclipse helped to plan our wedding on 10/27. We went with the partial planning package, and would absolutely recommend! From the very beginning in setting our initial budget, to reaching out to all vendors, Tessa was super communicative and realistic with what we had in mind and what we could afford. She was a joy to work with, and on the day of the wedding I didn't have a single concern! She handled everything and from what I saw, it all went off without a hitch!

HIRE TESSA! Seriously, there’s not much more that need to be said. Being a Type-A-Control-Freak-Hyper-Organized-Project Manager that I am, I never really thought I needed a wedding planner, but friends kept recommending that I get one, so I decided to give it a try. I wanted someone that matched my detailed oriented crazy self and could understand and execute my vision. My husband and I met with Tessa and instantly clicked with her. We interviewed a few other planners, but none could even come close to her positive energy and clear communication skills.

Tessa made the wedding planning process a total breeze. Based on just a quick chat, she understood what we wanted immediately and put together the perfect mood board. We then collaborated to narrow down vendors that were within budget and matched our styles, and every single one of them were incredible. Unlike some wedding planners that only get involved once you select and sign with vendors, she helped us handle everything from venue site visits to vendor selection and contract signing all within the listed package price. She was so helpful and patient (especially when dealing with my indecisiveness or change of hearts!), and saved us a ton of time and money with her tips and suggestions.

On top of planning, Tessa and Maria (her assistant) also coordinated our wedding day absolutely perfectly. They took away all of the stress of the day by handling vendor setups, guest arrivals, making sure we had food and a drink at all times, and that our schedule stayed on time for every event/game we wanted to do (and we had a lot lol). My parents were so impressed by her, and so many of our guests told us that this was the most beautiful, fun, and on-time wedding ever. It was honestly just the most perfect day, and I have Tessa to thank for all of it!

I've worked with Lauren Chumbley and Eclipse Event Co. on a variety of events for 3+ years, and they are at the top of my list of planners I'd recommend!
The entire team, and especially Lauren, are very communicative throughout the planning process, always making sure all parties are on the same page. You can tell Lauren cares deeply about her client's experience, be it corporate, a wedding, or just a fun party- she's going to go above and beyond to for every single client. She's also one of the most creative planners I've worked with, I'm always excited to see what she's going to come up with next!

We hired Lauren before any other vendor, and she saved our wedding multiple times in our 18 months together. have amazing relationships with the best vendors, she is always game to try something new. Not only does she From dealing with vendors cancelling on us, to working with our craziest "hey what if we did X", she handled everything with grace. She also kept us organized, UNDER budget, and made sure everything at our wedding was true to our love story. If we could hire Lauren to run our lives as smoothly as she ran our wedding, we would do so in a heart beat.
