Something Bleu Wedding & Event Planning - Dedham, Massachusetts

We cannot recommend Julie/Something Bleu Weddings enough! We did the Event Management Package for our Labor Day 2024 wedding in Duxbury, MA. From 3 months out, Julie was a huge help in finalizing all of our logistics and coordinating our vendors so that everything went off without a hitch. In particular, we were worried about the logistics of our transportation as we were working across several locations about 15 minutes apart and Julie helped alleviate any concerns by being so organizing and getting the timeline down to a T! Everything ran so smoothly the day of and our parents and wedding party were very complimentary of Julie’s support. Something Bleu was always professional and highly responsive in communications with us and our vendors. Julie and her assistant Tina also made the decor we picked out look amazing and totally executed the vision we were going for! In addition, I had a million questions because I tend to get stuck in details and Julie was beyond patient and always willing to help us figure out the best decision. It was a perfect day and it wouldn’t have been what it was without Julie and Tina!

I would like to thank my amazing wedding planner, Julie Riley, @somethingbleuweddings. Julie was professional and incredibly flexible with my time schedule which helped since I lived overseas. I have never planned a wedding before or helped in planning a wedding so I was not sure what to expect. She created a timeline as well as set an expectation of when everything needed to be executed, e.g. when the save the date should be sent, invitations sent, menus set, everything. Julie designed the seating plan, the ceremony as well as a back-up plan in case it rained, which it did. She was incredibly creative and made me feel confident with my choices. I can't really say enough how much attention to detail Julie gave, down to the timeline of events on the day of the wedding. She made sure that I was comfortable and taken care of on the day of the wedding, as well as my guests. Thank you, Julie! I strongly recommend her.

Julie at Something Bleu Events was an absolute joy to work with and made our wedding truly unforgettable! From the start, her positivity, helpfulness, and deep knowledge of wedding planning shone through. She kept us impeccably organized, ensuring we didn’t miss a single detail, and was always patient with our many questions.

Julie took the time to get to know us as a couple, and it was clear throughout the process that she was designing a wedding that truly reflected who we are. Her calm and helpful attitude during stressful moments was incredibly reassuring, and her warmth towards our families did not go unnoticed—it was so appreciated.

She made the entire process fun and easy, introducing us to amazing vendors from her portfolio while remaining open-minded to new vendors we were interested in. Her creativity and ability to think outside the box brought fresh ideas to life, especially with colors and design. She understood our priority of celebrating our guests and ensured every detail—from the pacing to the ambiance—was perfect.

Julie’s expertise, care, and creativity helped us create a wedding that felt authentic and meaningful. We’re so grateful for her guidance and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone planning their special day!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Julie of Something Bleu Weddings for our September wedding at the Fairmont Copley in Boston, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very first meeting, Julie’s attention to detail and calming demeaner stood out. She took the time to truly understand our vision and helped bring it to life in a way that exceeded all expectations.

Julie’s calming approach was invaluable throughout the planning process. As anyone who has planned a wedding knows, it can get stressful at times, but Julie was always there with a reassuring smile and practical solutions (including some homework assignments for us between meetings) to ensure we were staying on track throughout the planning process. She kept what would have been an overwhelming experience for young professionals light and fun while checking off the relevant action items during the planning process.

Another thing that really impressed us was her extensive network of vendors. Thanks to Julie’s recommendations and coordination, we worked with top-notch professionals who understood our style and needs and Julie coordinated all interactions with these vendors to ensure the wedding day went perfectly.

On the wedding day itself, Julie was a calm, efficient force behind the scenes, ensuring that everything went smoothly. She handled all the logistics so we (and our parents) could focus on enjoying the most important day of our lives. Thanks to her, our wedding was flawless, and we couldn't be more grateful for all her hard work and dedication.

We wholeheartedly recommend Julie and Something Bleu to any couple looking for a seamless, beautiful, and stress-free wedding experience!

We had the pleasure of working with Julie for our wedding this November. She was absolutely outstanding. We had the Full Service Planning + Design Services. She helped from the very beginning with everything, even when we weren’t sure where to start. From understanding us as a couple and what we’re looking for from our wedding, to helping us further define a vision for the dream wedding we wanted, Julie made us feel calm.

She took charge in finding various venues and vendors to consider to get us started in crafting a team that could make our special day possible. She worked closely with us to schedule calls with various vendors, preparing us for what to expect, and joining us to discuss details with them as well which was very helpful. Julie was diligent about taking and sharing notes to capture progress with various vendors as well. The vendors and venue Julie helped us find were amazing, and great to work with.

She also guided us through overall reception design and possible ideas to fit our fall theme. She helped us come up with a design that was better than we could have originally imagined alone.

We planned for about a year and a half and Julie was not only extremely organized but extremely detailed oriented. She helped us create a schedule and timeline that kept us on track. Julie was always available and there for us for anything we needed. She created out dream design and vision with the little ideas we started with. She created an amazing timeline for the day of that helped keep us all on track. Day of the wedding, all the vendors were commenting on how calm I was as a bride and it was all because I know Julie had everything under control. She made us feel so at easy and comfortable and I did not have a single worry. If you are looking for a wedding planner, Julie is exactly who you need. Thank you for everything, truly the best person to work with.

THE BEST!! We recently had the pleasure to work with Julie for our July 2024 wedding in Boston and I have to say it was one of the best decisions we could have made. We hired Julie about 7 months out from our wedding and she provided us with Partial Planning and Design services and was absolutely amazing to work with! From our first initial meetings, I was not only impressed at how knowledgeable and organized Julie is, but also how invested in her couples she gets- she truly wants the best for them and she makes your feel like you are her only couple, which is not easy to do! Julie's wide network of vendors helped us put together an incredible team and she suggested vendor services that we didn't know existed that helped make our day so magical. When it came to design, Julie was able to take our random thoughts and create the exact vision that we were going for. As we were getting closer to the wedding, I found myself feeling so lucky that we had Julie on our side. She is proactive in her approach, and sets deadlines for decision making which made us feel at ease. She was able to be our calm center when things got crazy and answered any of our questions, no matter how trivial they were. Julie is not only a top professional, but she is a genuine and caring person and I miss our zoom calls and getting to chat all the time already! If you are getting married and considering a wedding planner, hiring Julie will be the best decision you can make.
