Simply put: Gina is phenomenal!
We found lucid events through our venue's list of recommended vendors. Right off the bat, our consultation phone call with Gina was nothing but goo...
d vibes. She was upfront about what she felt like we needed and didn't need from her and it was refreshing to have someone give it to us straight and honest. We ended up choosing her month-of-coordination package.
They advertise themselves as your wedding day bestie and they are exactly that. Gina was super responsive to our calls and texts leading up to the wedding and gave us great recommendations for our vendors as well. Everyone complimented us on being so calm the week of the wedding but it is really because we knew that Gina could solve any disaster that could come our way.
Day of our wedding, Gina and her assistant were there bright and early to help manage set up. She also took some really fun behind the scenes videos for us! At our church ceremony, my veil fell out of my head and Gina was right there with pins to help me discreetly reattach it. Everything went off without a hitch thanks to Lucid Events. I will be recommending them to everyone I know! Thank you Gina and team for an unforgettable experience! Love yall <3

our corner when planning your wedding. She has an excellent list of venues and vendors that we used for our own wedding and getting everything set up with them was a breeze thanks to her! We worked with her for about a year and a half, and she was there to answer every question about every tiny detail I had. Whether I sent a quick thought through a text or a long rambling email about my anxieties around planning the wedding at 3 AM, she was always there to lend an ear with a quick response and kind reassurance. My husband and I have opposite work schedules, and Gina was so accommodating when it came to scheduling meetings and appointments that we could all attend. She will make your day so special and stress-free, and she truly felt like a friend by the end of the whole planning process! Thank you so much, Gina!

ctly how I imagined, and somehow even better. Every detail I asked for was executed beautifully, and she never made me feel like any request was too much.
Planning a wedding always comes with a few bumps along the way, but Gina handled every single one with calmness, professionalism, and genuine care. Anytime something needed adjusting, she stepped in immediately with solutions and reassurance. I always felt supported, heard, and completely taken care of.
Beyond being incredibly organized and talented, Gina is just an amazing human. She is kind, patient, and truly invested in her couples. She made the entire process feel smooth and enjoyable, and on the wedding day I was able to be fully present because I trusted her completely.
If you are looking for a planner who will advocate for you, execute your vision flawlessly, and make you feel so cared for throughout the entire journey… Gina is the absolute best. I cannot recommend her enough! 💛

of the way. Gina walked me through the entire process, made sure I understood all my options, and was always willing to answer my questions (no matter how small). Anytime I felt stressed or unsure, she put my mind completely at ease. On top of all that, she was a blast to work with. She was super fun, upbeat, and someone who made the entire planning process feel exciting instead of overwhelming. Her professionalism, organization, and calm presence were unmatched. I honestly don’t know how I would’ve done this without her, and I would recommend Gina a thousand times over to any couple planning their wedding.

eyond to bring my vision to life.
She worked one-on-one with all of my previously booked vendors to ensure contracts were delivered to the venue on time and that everyone had clear instructions for load-in, timing, and setup—everything a bride doesn’t want to worry about on her big day.
I had a few ideas I wanted executed but wasn’t exactly sure how they would come together, and Gina found the staffing and solutions to make it all happen seamlessly.
She was kind, fun to be around, and a calming presence on my wedding day. Gina stayed from early morning through the end of the night and was always nearby to address any concerns.
The timeline ran exactly as planned, and everything flowed perfectly. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone planning a wedding.

e her top 3 choices for each vendor based on the vibe and budget, she was the one to set up the contact and initial meetings with everyone, and was my advocate throughout the entire planning process. She was always available to text and really never made my 1000x questions feel like a burden. 2 weeks before my wedding our venue sent us an email showing pictures of extensive construction and Gina immediately called me with solutions. She went to the venue to see the extent of the construction, told the venue it was unacceptable, and found us another beautiful venue all within 18 hours. I truly couldn't have asked for someone better in our corner, she made everything leading up to the event perfect and day of was just as amazing. I had no stress throughout my entire wedding process and think that Gina played a crucial role in that. We recommend Gina 10000% and are both so grateful she was there for our big day!

ganized and all the vendors knew what they needed to do. She was so helpful especially since I've never planned a wedding before 🤣. She brought up things I never even thought about. Alexis was our "day of" coordinator and she was so kind and organized and made sure everything from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception ran so smoothly. She was also there for our rehearsal to go over how everything would go. I also provided all the decor and sent table mock ups for her and everything was PERFECT! Seriously, everything was exactly how I wanted it and she was there for anything we needed at all times. I am so grateful for Lucid Events for being there for me, especially when wedding planning can get pretty stressful towards the end. Thank you again so much Alexis & Gina!

Hiring Gina to be our planner was the first wedding decision we made and the best one! I cannot recommend working with her enough! Gina helped us put together a dream team of vendo...
rs, she was there for every question, every step of the way and most importantly helped us put on the MOST INCREDIBLE WEDDING EVERRRRR! We worked with Gina for a little over a year in our planning process and she was consistently on her game and just a pleasure to have in our lives. Gina made sure we were staying on task getting things done so we never felt overwhelmed. She took the pressure off by helping to narrow down vendors, setting up appointments, giving recs and just cut down on the hundreds of hours of research this would've taken on our own to do. She was clearly known and trusted by other vendors in the community and they all raved about working with her.
When it came time for the wedding itself, Gina knocked it out of the park. She also brought Alexis as a day of coordinator to help who was fantastic to work with. Alexis made sure our rehearsal went off so smoothly and efficiently and was a reliable second set of hands on the wedding day. Throughout our time together, Gina made sure to get to know us as a couple, what made us comfortable, what our vibe was and that was so clear on our big day. Rain caused us to have a last minute change of our ceremony from outside to inside and she helped all the vendors to flip the space in record time. She decided what questions needed to come to me and which ones I didn't need to be bothered with because it would unnecessarily stress me out. As a bride, this was so important.
We told Gina we wanted our wedding to be a giant dance party start to finish and her creative ideas and timeline helped us deliver just that. Gina went above and beyond, helping one of my bridesmaid's fix her hair at the last minute, finding us the most unique props for our dance floor (hello robot dinosaurs!) and even helped us to quietly remove a guest from the party who had had too much.
Gina is THAT GIRL that every couple should have by their side at the wedding. She is so versatile, working with couples with a variety of tastes and styles and can fit in with any group. Our friends and family were all raving about her and we want to have another wedding, just to work with her again!

If there were any issues, we never knew about them! From helping me slip on my shoes to making sure I always had a drink in hand, Gina was there every step of the way. Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful, and there’s not one thing I would change. We couldn’t have done it without her, and we are forever thankful for her amazing work. If you think you don’t need a wedding planner, trust me — you do. And you need Gina!

There truly are not enough words to express how grateful I am for everything Gina did to make our day so magical. From the very beginning of the planning process (which spanned nea...
rly three years!), she was there for me every single step of the way. No detail was ever too small, no question ever too silly—she was always one step ahead, calm, thoughtful, and ready with a solution before I even realized I needed one.
She coordinated seamlessly with every single vendor, kept everything organized and on track, and made what could have been a stressful process feel completely manageable—and even fun. Her communication was constant and reassuring, and I always felt like I had someone in my corner who genuinely cared about making our day perfect.
On the wedding weekend itself, she was an absolute rock star. From early morning until the last guest left, she handled every behind-the-scenes detail with grace and precision so that I could be fully present and just enjoy the day. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing—and that peace of mind is something I’ll never forget.
Not only is she an exceptional planner, but she became a true friend throughout the process. Her kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail are unmatched. If you are lucky enough to work with her, know you’re in the best possible hands. She made our dream wedding a reality, and I’ll be forever thankful.

d I oftentimes forgot she had clients other than us because she was so attentive. Any time there was a problem with a vendor, Gina was swooping in to save the day. She got us upgrades with our hotel and truly had our best interest in mind throughout this entire process. I cannot imagine planning a wedding without her, she was such a huge help. I remember as I was arm and arm with my father, about to walk down the aisle I heard a baby start screaming (despite instructing guests that this was a child-free wedding). It was my turn to walk and I said, "Gina wait! there's a baby crying" and I'll never forget, she said "Don't worry, I put it in the elevator! You're good!" (with it's parent of course lol) One of the best decisions I made for my wedding was choosing Lucid events.

We met Gina about 2 years prior to our wedding date (May 2, 2025). This came after an endless search to find someone who would look to understand our inspiration. She was intent on...
bringing our vision to life and ensured that she stayed connected to our wedding journey.
We were very apprehensive about what to expect with a destination wedding, in not knowing how it would turn out or how much trust we would have to put in others. This was a time of uncertainty for us, but one where we were hoping for perfection.
Gina made those worries go away; she reassured us constantly and always valued our concerns. Thanking you Gina, for keeping our spirits up and maintaining our positivity throughout the process. The journey was worth it, for what eventually became, “The Perfect Wedding”!!!

I knew I wanted to be very involved in the planning process and making my vision come to life, and Gina was helpful in supporting where we needed her, helping us make sure we weren’t forgetting any key elements, and putting out last minute fires. I trusted her to give me her true opinion and provide feedback on my ideas throughout the planning process. The day off, she was really the most calming presence and was a joy to have working as part of the vendor team.

mpressed us with her expertise, enthusiasm, and efficiency. She provided invaluable guidance and had a venue selected and contracted within just a few weeks of our engagement.
Throughout the entire planning process, Gina's industry connections proved invaluable. Her excellent relationships with vendors saved us countless hours of research and negotiations, while her thoughtful advice helped us navigate decisions with confidence. We always felt like her top priority, with every question answered promptly and every concern addressed thoroughly.
We must give special recognition to Alexis Furness, our day-of Coordinator. Alexis was truly exceptional—poised, attentive, and prepared for any situation. Her calm demeanor and meticulous attention to detail ensured our wedding day flowed seamlessly. She anticipated needs before they arose and handled everything behind the scenes so masterfully that we were able to remain fully present and enjoy every moment of our celebration without a hint of stress.
Thanks to Gina, Alexis, and the entire Lucid Events team, our wedding exceeded our highest expectations. We couldn't recommend them more enthusiastically to any couple seeking not just a wedding planner, but a true partner in creating the perfect wedding day.

Gina was always available to talk and was so good at handling the most ridiculous situations that came up during my wedding planning. Her calm demeanor but also able to take care of any situation ( like getting us out of an awful vendor contract 30 days prior to our wedding) makes her amazing . She has personal relationships with all the vendors down here which helped us so much aka having to then find a new florist a month before our wedding day. All in all I would use Gina again 100 times over! It’s so important to have a planner who not only is good at their job BUT is also easy to have a relationship. Gina was that and more!

where to even begin...literally the best day of our lives and so much of what made it absolutely PERFECT goes out to Gina Damato and her crew at LUCID EVENTS.
Gina gave above and...
beyond service, is so likeable and cool and fun, and there is 0 reason you should even consider anywhere else.
Let me give you a quick example why Gina is so dope and how much value you get for your money (beyond fair pricing if you ask me); Gina scheduled month out meetings with all of our vendors so we could fine tune everything with them. She went over all of our contracts with the vendors and insured that nothing was out of place (there were like 7 contracts to go over just to give you an idea).
She'll be your best friend for the day and ensure you've got everything you need, and she knows how to read a room/crowd perfectly. Getting you a drink when you need one, grabbing those random wedding items you need from your room. She make sure you stick to the timeline that she created for you months in advance.
Gina, thank you so much for making our day the best it could've possibly been. You are amazing and I hope we can stay in touch!

Once I saw Gina work that wedding I knew she was the one for our wedding so we hired her right away. Throughout the whole time leading up to the wedding Gina was always just a phone call away. I do admit it was hard at first letting Gina make phone calls and schedule meetings since I am so used to being in control but once I have her 100% of the control she made it easier for me and my wife to plan the small details. On the wedding day she was there right next to us throughout the whole night asking us if we needed anything and making sure the wedding went off without a hitch. Thank you Gina for everything. 10/10 recommend

Hey there! Just had my wedding a couple days ago & I got to say, Gina has been absolutely incredible throughout the whole process. The moment we hired her she had been so present a...
nd was able to guide us through it all! I couldn’t have asked for a better day of coordinator, she absolutely went above and beyond for us! Wedding day went so smoothly, she dealt with all the vendors, guests, helped calm my nerves as a bride, helped set up decorations ( which by the way she didn’t need to do that at all) she even went above and beyond to take content behind the scenes throughout the day so that we would have something to leave with! As a bride I didn’t have to worry about anything at all during my wedding day, which was such a relief! Definitely would recommend her 1000x to anyone! Gina thank you so much for everything you have done for us! We really appreciate it!

r/planner, it can’t be that hard, is it really necessary? I’m telling you now Gina literally became the best and most valuable vendor I hired for the whole wedding. She made the whole process so smooth and went above and beyond what she needed to do. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need. 10/10!

I’ve worked with a lot of wedding planners, but Gina from Lucid Events is truly one of a kind. From the moment I arrived, it was obvious she had everything planned out perfectly. S...
he’s so organized, calm, and great at keeping things on track, which made my job so much easier. The whole day flowed so smoothly, and Gina made sure everyone – vendors and guests – felt taken care of.
I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for a planner who’s not only amazing at what she does but also super kind and fun to work with, Gina is the one! I’m looking forward to working together again soon.

As a wedding photographer, I’ve had the privilege of working with many wedding planners, and I must say, Lucid Events is truly outstanding. From start to finish, the level of organ...
ization and attention to detail was nothing short of remarkable. Every aspect of the day was seamlessly planned, which made capturing the couple’s special moments effortless and enjoyable.
Gina has an incredible ability to anticipate every need, ensuring that the timeline flowed smoothly without any hiccups. From the perfectly arranged details to the well-coordinated transitions between events, it was clear that every element was thoughtfully prepared with both the couple and their vendors in mind.
What stood out most to me was Gina's calm demeanor and professionalism throughout the day. Even in moments of unpredictability (as weddings often bring), she handled everything with grace and efficiency, allowing the couple and their loved ones to stay fully present in the celebration.
Thanks to Gina, I was able to focus on my craft without worrying about logistical challenges. It’s so refreshing to work with a planner who understands the needs of every vendor and ensures we can all work together seamlessly.
I can’t recommend Lucid Events enough to any couple looking for a wedding planner who is not only talented and organized but also a true joy to work with. I look forward to collaborating again in the future!

MY WEDDING PLANNING FAIRY GOD MOTHER. Gina was always on top of everything for me from setting up meetings to making sure everyone was on time and scheduled properly, confirming my...
vendors, and just over all being an absolute boss. She was responsive at any day or time that I needed her, and was so quick to get things done. She is not afraid to go after what you envision on your wedding day. Obviously everything was new to me and you can research prices and the best vendors but she really takes no sh*t when getting you the best of the best. In times where I was nervous to speak up she was on top of it fighting for me and getting me what was best and I am so appreciative of her. She brought so much energy and fun into planning and executing our wedding and I truly could not have asked for a better person to help me on my most important day. Bottom line, if you don’t book Gina, you are missing out.

I booked Gina as a partial wedding planner and day of coordinator at my Wedding at the DoubleTree Grand Miami. She delivered as promised and was always fun but professional. She ...
was always available to answer questions I had and she recommended great vendors. The day of my wedding went perfect and I didn't have to worry about vendors, clean up, or the event timeline because she handled everything. I highly recommend Gina and Lucid Events.

15/10 would recommend. Gina and her staff at Lucid Events were a dream to work with. I booked Gina for full-service wedding planning and worked for with her for over a year to plan...
my dream wedding. Gina was always available to answer questions and/or help in anyway. She has a great rapport with vendors and works hard to get exactly what you want. She is also very budget conscious and never tried to sell us anything. Our wedding day went perfectly, if there were issues I had no idea because Gina and her staff handled everything! You will not be disappointed with them.
