Denise and I started planning my wedding in early 2020 before the Pandemic but
it was postponed in May 2020. I contacted her during the Christmas Holiday 2020
and asked if she could make it happen on short notice, January 2, 2021. She
immediately began to work her magic and started contacting her vendors. We
were thoroughly pleased with the outcome. Windermere Elegant Weddings is a
Premiere Wedding company providing invaluable guidance with a
spiritual touch. I would definitely recommend Denise because of her cool
demeanor and razor focus execution skills. Thank you, Denise.

I recently went on a vacation overseas planned out by Denise Bonds of Windermere Weddings & Special Events and I was so glad she planned it. Everything was beautiful and simply PERFECT!! Family and friends reunited and had fun with the day to day activities and excursions that were planned. Food was wonderful and tried local cuisine. Denise planned an awesome Olympics game that drove healthy competition amongst us all and even other games related to our trip prior to our arrival. It was great working with her from the beginning to the end and can’t wait to call her again next year for the next

Being in wedding photography, we have worked with Denise at a number of events. What always amazes me is the creativity that she can pull off on a budget. I will never forget the impact we had on the one wedding we worked with her. From the moment we walked in, we thought "Wow, they must have had a huge budget." Every where you looked there was a touch of class and elegance from the centerpieces, to the gift table etc. And when we told her how amazing it looked I was amazed to hear she did it all for just a FRACTION of the cost I would have imagined. I remember that one of the bridesmaids had forgotten

Denise and Patty at Windermere Elegant Weddings were an ease to work with for day of services at our wedding. My fiancé and I were able to meet with Denise and Patty face to face and share our needs. I then provided Patty with images and instructions for our wedding decorations and place settings. Patty was able to execute my vision with ease. Our reception space was beautiful. I would recommend Windermere Elegant Weddings for anyone in need of day of services for their event. They were well priced and a pleasure to work with.

I met Denise more than five years ago and had the pleasure to work with her on several fundraising events including a ladies luncheon, The Power of the Purse and on a black tie gala, Canvases and Corks. She is an amazing lady! Her creative talents are only outshined by her organizational ability. I found her able to find solutions to the “stickiest” of situations. She brings out the best in the people she works with, inspirational you might say. She can bring any dull space to life with her imaginative and ingenious ideas. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding or event planner

Windermere Elegant Weddings & Special Events helped my family host a murder mystery party at our home for about 30 people. Their expertise and guidance ensured that it was the most successful event we have ever hosted. Denise's thoughtful approach, experience, and grace was essential to our guests' enjoyment of the event, and allowed the host and hostess to truly enjoy ourselves as well (instead of worrying over every little thing, we were able to trust Windermere's talented servers to keep things running smoothly).
