Events Of A Lifetime has consistently exceeded my expectation in the events they have planned for me. Gillian and her team's attention to detail and professionalism in creating a unique event each time is what keeps me a repeat customer. Highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.

Cannot thank Gillian and Deb enough for what they did for us. First I have to clarify, this was a VERY last minuet, small event in my parents home. They were not my contracted wedding planners.
My review requires some back-story so here we go: My husband and I got engaged and set our wedding date for August 2020 in the Golden Isles. By December, my mother who was at the time battling cancer took a turn for the worse and unexpectedly entered hospice. It was made clear to us that if we wanted her to be a part of our wedding, we would need to do something sooner than our original august date. So I called Gillian (whom is a family friend) for some advice on how to plan a small wedding (this was pre-Covid so “micro” or “mini weddings” weren’t a thing yet) and not only did she give me advice, but she volunteered her services for the entire event. Seriously they refused to take any payment. So about a week and a half goes by and we have things almost all set up for a small wedding in a local ATL restaurant, when we’re told my mother was getting worse not better and we had better move things up to that week. Which was incredibly gut-wrenching and my entire family and I were heartbroken much less able to focus on planning another event in less than a week in our own home (which was completely in disarray from home hospice set up, and the start of a move (pre-cancer diagnosis, which has completely been put on pause). So Gillian and team swooped in, and with just days and a few photos of my parents home in one day transformed out living and dining room into an alter and reception area 100% decorated with family heirlooms, and decor from around my parents home. She created an alter in my parents dining room from vintage candelabra’s and layered empty baroque frames, and arranged glass sculptures, it was all so beautiful. We also still had our Christmas tree up (taking it down was not a priority given the circumstances) so she made that the center point of our receptions spaces (living room) which was perfect because I secretly always wanted a Christmas wedding. In the end the space was transformed to the perfect space for my family an close friends to celebrate.

They set everything up, put everything back, throughout the week made sure everything was completed that needed to be on our end to make it as easy as she could on us so we could focus on spending tie with my mother. On the day I felt like a princess and more importantly so did my mum. I will never be able to repay them for the kindness or beautiful memories she was able to give my family that day and I cannot not thank them enough! I 100% recommend them for any wedding within or outside of the Atlanta area. We will forever be so thankful to them.

Gillian was amazing. She was organized and on top of everything. I had a traditional Pakistani wedding in Atlanta, GA, and Gillian made sure to get up to speed on the cultural traditions, as well as all the logistics of the multi-day, 600 person event. She made sure my vision came to life, found the best vendors, and thought of things I would not have. She was positive, calm, enthusiastic, and kind throughout the whole process. Her team was energetic and also on top of the wedding plans. I highly recommend Events of A Lifetime for other brides.

When you have no clue how to plan the best party of your life, hire someone who does! Gillian is worth every penny for the PEACE of mind and the AMAZING decor and professionalism she provides! And, a wonderful person and personality to boot! She is easy to work with and she will amaze your socks off!

As a serious event professional in the wedding industry I have had the honor of working wth Gillian and her crew multiple times! Each wedding has been well coordinated (of course) but she is EXTREMELY creative and knowledgable. I have no doubt that if your wedding is looking for fun and unique she can deliver! Gillian Marto is DEFINITELY a legitimate wedding planner! When we have clients looking for true wedding planning our referral list is short - and Gillian is a GO TO! Her ability to see things that need to be adjusted live is fantastic. She knows that timelines are guides and she trusts her vendor team to execute with precision. Top Notch.

The greatest wedding planner ever! She really made it so easy for me to just sit back and enjoy my wedding day, without worry and stress. She saw my vision and I showed up to the best day ever! Thank you Gillian it was an event of a lifetime!! I would give her 10 stars if I could.
