Niki was a dream to work with! Looking back at our wedding day, I do not know what I would've done without her. 

 She literally ran through the mountains during a 90 degree hot Vegas day to make sure everything went smooth during the ceremony. She also treated everyone like family, it felt like she was one of my bridemaids and my fur babies loved her (they were part of the ceremony). Since day one she made me feel that everything was under control (every bride needs this feeling!). Communication was so smooth, I could text her at any time of the day and she would quickly reply to my needs and concerns. Our wedding day was a dream! Nikki and her team went above and beyond to design and plan this day. No doubt that finding her was a blessing. I would not think twice to hire her, she will make your wedding dreams come true!!

Niki managed to capture exactly what I had envisioned but a million times better. 

If you are *thinking* about booking Niki just stop reading this right now and DO IT! She is so friendly and bubbly and had so many wonderful ideas that I immediately felt at ease and knew that I was making the right choice working with her. Somehow, from a few phone calls/e-mails and maybe 4 inspo pics I sent her, Niki managed to capture exactly what I had envisioned but a million times better. The colors, textures, charcuterie, cake--everything was perfect. I look back at the pictures and videos every day and still can't believe that it was OURS. It feels like a dream. Our wedding was more amazing than I ever could've dreamed up and I truly owe it all to her. Thank you so much again Niki, you're magical! So grateful to have met you.

Nicole made my wedding day
absolutely perfect.

 From day one she was very communicative. Any question or change I wanted done she answered it or did it with no hesitation. She worked with me through out the whole process. She made sure everything was done exactly how I wanted it. Not only is Nicole great but all her vendors she recommends are just as amazing. Very sweet and kind people who want to make ur day very special for you. You can definitely tell she loves what she does and pours her heart and soul into every wedding she plans. I will always cherish my special day and it’s a big thanks to Nicole and her crew. I will forever recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner.

-Samantha U.

Our wedding was better than we imagined. 

We did a last minute elopement to Vegas, and wanted something special in a small amount of time. We were referred to Nicole at Ember & Stone Events and we are so happy with the results. She led us through the whole process, helped us with things we didn't even think about, and made everything so easy on us. Not to mention creative and romantic. Thanks for your help!

-Mark S. 

I don't think many brides can look back on their wedding day and say that everything was truly perfect and stress free.

My husband and I are so beyond thankful that we found Nicole with Ember and Stone Events! I don't think many brides can look back on their wedding day and say that everything was truly perfect and stress free. Nicole and her group stood out to us from the moment we reached out to her. She was responsive, detailed, and super excited from the moment we discussed our vision with her! Throughout our time planning the wedding, she was always available for any questions or changes as well.

The day of our wedding feels truly magical because of her hard work and attention to detail. Our venue was amazing, our desserts were delicious, and it felt as though everyone was involved on our special day! Outside of how amazing the work Nicole does, her and her team are also an amazing addition to have at our wedding! Everyone on her team was there to help when needed, guide me through everything throughout the day, and even talk about our dogs while I waited to walk down to aisle!

I cannot thank Nicole and her team enough for making our special day so effortless, beautiful, and fun! So much love for her and her team. Overall, her services were above and beyond what we could ask for. Her professionalism, kindness, and good jokes made our day that much more amazing! Thank you again!

-Paige M. 

Where do I even start? Niki is amazing! From the first time we hopped on a call, I knew that I wanted to book with her!

She is so bubbly and kind and will do any and everything to make your day perfect! I worked with Niki as our wedding weekend planner to include our happy hour and reception but she did so much more to help me out. As a destination bride, it’s scary trusting someone in an unfamiliar place to take care of your day, but Niki calmed my fears and made sure everything went smoothly even through the curve balls of COVID and my bride anxiety 🙃 She is quick to communicate via Email or text, typically 24 hours or less. She has been my unofficial bridesmaid, my hype girl and friend! Even now, after the wedding she continues to help me and just go above and beyond. My only regret is I found her after we had booked our ceremony. If I could do it again, I would book Niki for everything! If you are thinking about working with her, DO IT!

-Shea W

 Everything was perfect and beautiful and I felt very well taken care of.

Niki and her team made everything easy. First of all, after we set a date, we said we wanted to change it to three months earlier and Niki said, "Give me two days" and called all our vendors and made it happen. I knew she would take care of everything, and create a beautiful setup for our wedding, and not I nor anyone in my family had to worry. Everything was perfect and beautiful and I felt very well taken care of. Def recommend!!

-Arestia R.

Absolutely the best!!!

Absolutely the best!!! We at first thought we didn’t need a wedding designer/planner because we just wanted a simple quick ceremony with a few people but let me tell you how happy I was finding this wedding designer, Nikki and Lexi were so helpful and honestly I was not stressing anymore they did it all . They made that day feel so special even for a small elopement with a few family. Highly recommend!! Thank you again to them and their team ❤️

-Desiree E.

Niki and her team of vendors made our elopement a dream come true. 

After multiple wedding reschedules we were excited when the idea of elopement came into view, but where to even start? We live across the country in Philadelphia but Niki made us feel like we were locals and she was available anytime to walk us through things, talk small and large details, answer any question, everything. I can't believe that she has other clients because she really makes you feel like you are her only event and sole priority, we were amazed. We can't thank her enough for all of her hard work, dedication to us, and her attention to detail, even down to making sure the photographer got shots of things we forgot to mention but were important and thought of them for us! We're glad the wedding is over but sad to part ways with Niki, maybe in a few years a vow renewal will bring us back to her!! Thank you again!

-Heather B

Oh my gosh where do I even begin!!!!
Niki is the absolute BEST!! 

Aside from her being a planner she is just an amazing person overall her personality is sooo great and she just gives the best energy and puts her all into everything. She will not stop until she knows you’re happy with everything! My husband and I decided to elope and came across her instagram! I’ve always loved the idea of eloping and when we cancelled our wedding it was even more of a reason! I honestly don’t know how people go without a planner it is a must, I am the most indecisive person and she helped me along the way! I reached out to her about a month before we wanted to elope and she made it possible! Everything was so PERFECT I cannot get over it Niki designed everything and put it all together! She was always available even we if it was super late at night! Love that she provided a mood board so I was able to have a vision of how everything would look! Niki would spend hours driving around Vegas looking for the perfect location for us like cmon who else would do that! We flew in from Texas and had never been to Vegas so we put all our trust in Niki and she did not disappoint! Honestly my day looked like something I would only see on Pinterest! I’m constantly having people reach out to me about my Elopement and commenting on how beautiful it was! If you’re thinking about eloping or just working with Niki for an event don’t think twice! I cannot wait to renew my vows and work with her again! Thank you sooooo much Niki so blessed to have had you be apart of our special day <3

-Meagan S

First, her personality is SO amazing.

Nikki was amazing to work with!! First, her personality is SO amazing. She's super energetic and it is so genuine. She created an easy process for us and really was there to calm my nerves on my special day. She was able to perfectly incorporate my father who passed into my day as well. BOOK HER.

-Shayla M.

When I was searching for wedding planners there was something about Niki that I felt like I knew her already.

Niki and her team were such a pleasure to work with! When I was searching for wedding planners there was something about Niki that I felt like I knew her already, and after our first interaction I was sold. Her and the team are very great about communicating in a timely fashion and you can tell that they truly care about every couple they take care of!!! Words cannot describe how wonderful our wedding day went, and we are so thankful to have had ember and stone events!!!! If we ever do a vow renewal I know who I’m calling :)

-Chelsea R.

 She is always in communication with you and makes sure you are getting what you want, she has so many different options and ideas that you truly can create your perfect wedding with her!

Nikki is so awesome!  She always has great vibes and is so happy and welcoming, she truly made the process of planning a wedding and the wedding day stress free so we could enjoy our time together and with our guests! I highly recommend booking her for any wedding needs!

-Chris J.

I can’t begin to explain how easy and stress free she made wedding planning

Nicole was extremely professional, always kind and very knowledgeable. I never had to wait to hear back from her and I can’t begin to explain how easy and stress free she made wedding planning. I highly recommend using her as your wedding planner!

-Amanda R.

If you want stress free, ELOPE with EMBER & STONE EVENTS

Let me start by saying if you are looking for a stress free wedding ceremony, ELOPE! & hire Cactus Canyon Events! My husband and I are from Texas and planned our elopement with Nicole without ever meeting face to face or even scouting a location. My anxiety was very high due to planning wedding in a totally different state without knowing any preferred vendors and closing on a home. When I talked to Nicole, I knew I was in the hands of a professional who could make my vision come to life.
She did just that! The floral arrangements were everything, my Husband keeps bragging about the cake and how she kept me ( The Bride) very calm. Although I didn’t have a maid of honor or even a wedding party, I felt like I did. Getting dressed was so awesome. Nicole and her team made me feel like I had a wedding party. I definitely gained a new family friend! Book with her! You won’t be disappointed.

-Yaqar H.

I can’t even begin to explain how amazing Niki is. SHE was so easy to work with, responded quickly, and literally does everything for you.

To be honest, I’m not your typical bride that had everything in detail with what I wanted, just a few. I Trusted Niki and let her do her thing with my set up because her vision and work is just beautiful. We showed up and they told us exactly what to do and everything was so well put together and beautiful. Absolutely amazing! Scenery, bouquet, cake, everything. We are at a lost of words with how happy our intimate ceremony turned out. Super glad I came across her social media and found her. #BestDayEver

-Karina G

She made my dream wedding a reality! 

Nicole is an amazing planner!! She made my dream wedding a reality! Her personality is so upbeat, fun and understanding! No matter what I wanted she made sure it was done without any hesitation! Her entire team was amazing! Professionalism is top tier….she has you feeling like you are her only client! I am still in shock how beautiful my wedding was. We came from Maryland and would have never known everything was planned from miles away! You get so much great service from her! From her welcome package to mood boards everything is top tier. She goes above and beyond! If I could do it all over again she would definitely be my top pick!! Thank you Nicole you exceeded my expectations! I feel like I have gained a friend for a lifetime!! You are beyond talented! Thank you so much! Definitely Book Her..You will not Regret It!!

-Zonya B.

Made the experience so stress-free for my partner and I.

We hired Nicole about a month before our wedding date. We had to cancel twice due to COVID. She was the BEST to work with. Just filled out some questionnaires and told her our vision and she brought it to life beautifully. Made the experience so stress-free for my partner and I. Best day of my life thanks to Nicole :)

-Taylor M.

If you're looking to plan a stress-free micro wedding or elopement in Las Vegas, look no further than Ember & Stone Events! 

Niki is an absolute pro, badass wedding planner that will help you achieve your dream. My fiancé and I could not wait any longer to officially tie the knot so we knew we had our work cut out for us with planning a covid wedding. I came across Niki's Instagram account and fell in LOVE with her style and elopements. It was my dream, boho-chic, Pinterest board heaven all there in one place. I reached out to her in mid-September and by the first week of November, we were blissfully enjoying our mini-moon. The planning process was a breeze, Niki was available to us basically 24/7 and she even took us to breakfast to answer our 5,000 questions and listen to our corny ideas. Niki made our dreams a reality with the perfect location, she seriously nailed it. I think I rejected roughly 12 locations and I'm sure a lesser planner would have given up on me but not Niki! She found the perfect location, florist, makeup & hair team, photographer, and even helped us decide on the groom's ensemble via FaceTime while she was on vacation. I was nervous about how my hair and makeup would hold up to an outdoor wedding and constant mask-wearing and removing so she set up a trail to set my mind at ease. I loved my hair and makeup so much so that I felt like a princess, I would never have known how to pick the right team for the job and the gals she chose for me felt like my friends by the time I was setting off to the ceremony. Our wedding day went perfectly, Niki and her team handled grumpy family members, forgotten (by me) unity sand, and even tore apart her lunch so we could have an impromptu communion. Niki is a ride or die, better than any maid of honor and we could not be happier with the result.

-Sara S.

Cannot speak highly enough of her.

After planning and replanning and rescheduling our wedding just to have the venue cancel our contract for 2021, we decided it was time to plan something small and intimate. I reached out to Nicole to see if she’d be willing to help me put together a wedding on Christmas Day (we are both in healthcare so this was the only day we both were not working) and with less than 3 weeks notice. Her response- absolutely LETS DO THIS. She’s a miracle worker. She made sure every detail was perfect. She even found someone to livestream it in true 2020 fashion so our family could be there in spirit. Cannot speak highly enough of her.

-Jessica W.

The only thing I wish is to relive the day.

What can I say about Nikki! She was wonderful communicate was top notch. I asked for things last minute and she and her team were able to make things happen. My whole wedding party was impressed with her work and how smoothly the wedding came out. Honestly I don’t live in Vegas so I was worried how things would work out with distance but it ran so smoothly. The only thing I wish is to relive the day. We had such a beautiful/ wonderful day. Thank you everything Nikki and team. ♥️

-Diandra M.

We eloped and instead of feeling alone, I legit felt like my best friend was there!

I didn’t give Niki much notice but she ended up running with it and giving me the second most perfect day of my life! Other than the birth of my only child! We eloped and instead of feeling alone, I legit felt like my best friend was there! Impressively shocked and genuinely floored with how amazing my wedding turned out!

-Jessica M.

I’ll never forget that day!

Niki was amazing to work with her enthusiasm and excitement made you feel like she was your biggest cheerleader. Stress free everything was perfect! I’ll never forget that day!

-Kisha S.

Where to start off with Niki! 

She was very supportive with a level head on her shoulders throughout our wedding planning chaos. She made sure there was a solution to all of our challenges. She was very upbeat and positive which put us at ease. Whenever we felt stuck on a task, she guided us to the right path of our vision. She made communicating to other vendors stress free because she did all the leg work. She gave us more than everything we wanted to make our day even more special. Her ideas and inputs meshed very well with what we envisioned throughout the whole process and she was able to make all of those come to life down to every little detail. We appreciated how she considered how we wanted to feel with the planning, which were comfortable, relaxed, and stressed-free, and still made everything happen and more! She claimed to be the best unofficial maid of honor and hype person and she delivered 100%! All of our families and friends could not stop praising her and her work and she very well deserves it!!! We don’t look at her as a planner but a friend for life!
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!!

-Vanessa P.

Originally, we weren't planning on hiring a planner/designer for our wedding elopement at Valley of Fire 

(since it was suppose to be simple...didn't feel like we needed to), but I'm so glad we did! It really did take away the stress of trying to find vendors separately (especially trying to plan everything from out of state very last minute). Nicole customized our elopement so it was perfect for our needs, planned everything out with the officiant and photographer, created a detailed timeline, and approved/chose the most beautiful bouquet and boutonnière that was perfect for us. Plus, she was super friendly!

-Worada L.

Magical as Ever

Niki made this day more perfect than we could have ever imagined. Always available and always creative with ideas! This day was as magical as it was because of her!
