EFD Creative - Event Planning & Design - Boston, Massachusetts

Tina Miljevic

I had the pleasure of meeting Edna and being introduced to EFD Creative almost 13 years ago when I entered the hospitality industry. Over my decade long career I have worked side by side with various planners and designers. I have seen all there is to see with almost 500 weddings under my belt. When it came time for my very own Big Day there was absolutely no question who my husband and I wanted to work with. Edna and Kasie simply understood us. They listened, created and designed based on who we are as a couple and our story. What we couldn't put in words they designed flawlessly through images. Edna and Kasie were a sounding board for our ideas, our challenges and the inevitable family drama that comes with planning a wedding. Their recommendations were spot on. All aspects of our wedding were personal to our journey as a couple and this team understood that. Day-of was 100% spot on. To say our wedding was exactly how I imagined it would be an understatement. It was more. As an event professional myself, I am a stickler for timeline and details. However, I woke up the morning of my wedding knowing I was in the best of hands. I didn't look at a clock. I didn't ask questions. I didn't have to come up with Plan B or C, even when my brother-in-law lost our wedding bands...Kasie was the one who tracked them down! She saved our vows (and my brother-in-law's life ? ) When I think back on the details of our wedding day, these two ladies stand out amongst it all. I am honored to call them friends and blessed to have been able to work with such a tremendously skilled team for over a year!"

When we first started wedding planning in January 2020, I started looking into wedding planners and magically found Kasie at EFD. She was just so refreshing to talk to and so helpful in sharing thoughts and ideas, even before we decided to hire her. Then COVID hit and planning came to a halt, so we lost touch for a few months but would check in every so often and she was so happy to just chat and give advice. So when we decided to just go for it with our fall wedding, even though it was going to be a mini-one per all the guidelines, I knew I had to hire Kasie! Fortunately she had some great mini-packages that ended up being invaluable to us (ceremony & logistics planning) and I can't recommend her highly enough. She helped with SO many things I didn't even think of and was creative with ideas to make a pandemic wedding work. She even helped guide us on how to write our own vows and gave us tips for my brother who was our JOP. She was always just a phone call or text away (and still is!). Our wedding was perfect and couldn't have done it you Kasie, thank you!

I researched and researched and researched, and I can safely say that I hit the jackpot finding Kasie. Our wedding would not have gone as smoothly without her expertise and leadership. She helped us prep a timeline over the course of a few months. Kasie was there for the rehearsal as well as our wedding day and was such a huge help. She has such an incredible personality and you could tell she truly cares about her clients. She is amazing with taking leadership (especially for ceremony planning) & has a ton of experience, I would always lean on her for her opinion. You will not regret working with Kasie, she is THE BEST.

I can't say enough about how helpful and wonderful EFD Creative was as I was planning my wedding! Right from the beginning Kasie helped develop an ideal plan for my husband and I. We had a January wedding and the little details to make our day special and intimate were very important to us. She helped with every piece to make sure that we knew all of our options. Our ceremony was beautiful and we can't thank EFD Creative enough for the support!

We absolutely loved working with Edna and Kasie to create the wedding of our dreams! From the beginning, everything was laid out clearly so we could not go wrong in terms of our budget. Thanks to Edna, we were successful in finding the perfect venue that had everything we wanted and that fit into our budget. From there, everything took off seamlessly! From the flowers, the rentals for the tables, the invitations, and the cake, all vendors were selected to match the exact vision we desired. Edna was essential for the helping to select the key elements of the design that made everything coordinate and match perfectly. When it was time for the practicalities of the wedding, Kasie jumped in to make the entire process stress free. Her amazing communication with myself and all the vendors made my life so much easier! She was extremely specific and punctual in all of the details regarding the timeline and the organization of the entire event. Her positive attitude throughout the process made this all helped to make this a relaxed and enjoyable process. We feel so lucky to have worked with both EFD Creative and we truly could have not have had the wedding of our dreams without the amazing team of Edna and Kasie!

Wedding of the Year!

That was what I told Edna I was looking for during our first conversation & boy did she deliver! Being busy professionals who are traveling often, we didn’t have the time or energy to plan a great wedding. Edna & her team were consultative, creative & helped us more than we even knew we needed. Edna was genuinely excited about our recent engagement & took the time to get to know our story. However, it was her honesty that ultimately made us love her. She was very direct about our ideas, budget & made sure that we had a realistic perspective on weddings in Boston. She understood our priorities & gave us her honest opinions & suggestions on where she thought she & her team could help.

Ultimately, we contracted EFD Creative for their full suite of services; helping us with the vendor selection, creative design & branding, & day of services. BEST CHOICE OF OUR LIVES. I am convinced we would have never gotten married if we didn’t pick the full package. We contracted with Edna in just a few days we had a venue & a tight timeline – our wedding was in less than 8 months! Edna wasn’t worried - she worked her magic, presenting us with top vendors in the area & within a week we had all of our vendors selected!

Kasie was our day of coordinator & she was equally as amazing as Enda. Kasie carefully planned every detail of the day, from when vendors would arrive, to how my bridesmaids were getting lunch! She was key to making sure the entire day moved seamlessly without a hitch. When something did go wrong, Kasie handled it well & found a great resolution. When my wedding dress showed up wrinkled, Kasie called the boutique & insisted they send someone over to steam it in my room to ensure that it was perfect!

When all was said & done, Edna & Kasie helped us in so many ways & always went above & beyond to help make our day even more special. Justin & I know that we wouldn’t have been able to do it without them, & honestly, we wouldn’t want to!

Immediately after my engagement I knew I needed a professional wedding planner to combine my unique style and my mom's very specific taste into one wedding that both of us would love. After meeting Edna and Kasie, we knew between their impressive portfolio and positive energy that they were the team to make it happen.

We decided the wedding would have a majestic garden feel. Edna helped us infuse that look into everything from our invitations to our incredibly detailed castle wedding cake... I have NEVER seen so many people take pictures of the cake at a wedding! On the night of my wedding I just kept looking around admiring how gorgeous everything was and feeling so grateful to have had her in my corner.

As a busy business owner, I have a tight schedule and little time to organize an event of this magnitude. Kasie took care of it all! I would mention just once what it was that I wanted and poof Kasie would make it happen. She was super on the ball and unbelievably organized. She was always available to take a call from my mother and I and she even rush ordered a fan (the day before my wedding) for my mom to take to the ceremony after realizing it was going to be an unusually hot autumn day.

On the day of my wedding I did not worry about a thing! I knew Edna was at the venue making sure the space looked just as we imagined while Kasie was keeping track of the timeline and overseeing all of the vendors as they loaded in. My wedding day was the absolute best day of my life and a huge part of that was due to the EFD Creative team. I could have never done it without them!

Edna of EFD Creative is truly one of the greatest people you’ll ever meet! From the moment I first spoke with her on the phone, I thought that we would possibly use her services for day-of coordination. However, after my husband and I met her in person – we immediately knew that we wanted her expertise and eye for design all the way through! She was able to help shape our initial thoughts into a spectacular wedding that we and our guests couldn't believe. From vendor suggestion and selection (and working her magic to save us money where she could) to finding just the right item to be displayed on the gift table to having her team (and terrific husband) with her on the final day so that nothing was even an inch out of place– she lent her discerning and tasteful eye for design to the planning process – and we couldn't have been more thrilled. Being a gay couple, we wanted our overall wedding look and feel to be more masculine than a typical wedding - and she was able to deliver on that premise and more! Our friends, family and guests are still commenting about the day several months later. I think the best thing about working with Edna, was that we gained a friend!
