The best wedding planner in the Berkshires!! Between postponing our wedding due to covid and transforming our backyard into a functioning and fabulous wedding venue—Magdalena and her team are absolute pros who can handle anything that comes up. She worked with us to create a unique and special event that felt anything but cookie-cutter, and was always game to try out new ideas or see what was possible. Madga's patient and calm presence was incredibly reassuring throughout the entire planning process because we knew we were in such good hands. I truly can't say enough positive things about the

5 stars isn't enough for Magdalena and her team. When I was looking for a wedding planner, my top two criteria were (1) someone with creative, design-focused ideas, and (2) someone who is organized but with a relaxed, easy-going attitude. I only interviewed one wedding planner, because after meeting with Magdalena, I knew she was the one!! You can glean from her website and instagram that her design aesthetic and weddings are BEAUTIFUL, but I also want people to know that she is exceptionally kind and an absolute pleasure to work with. She is incredibly focused, organized, and detail-oriented as

I connected with Magdalena after coming across our dream caterers. We were in the process of re-planning our wedding due to COVID and were on a very tight timeline- 2-3 months! To say that Magdalena and Arielle helped us pull off our dream wedding is an understatement. They quickly became our rocks. Magdalena's calm, professional, friendly, and caring demeanor became one of the highlights of our planning process and our wedding day. She took what I thought was my nebulous vision of an elegant yet rustic affair and made it come to life in a way I could have never imagined. I had full trust in her

Magdalena actually planned two weddings for us: our original June 2020 celebration with 130 guests and, ultimately, our intimate COVID wedding on the same date at a new venue with 99% of guests on Zoom. In a nutshell, Magdalena made our Plan B feel like the wedding of our dreams. She connected us at the outset with a fabulous team of vendors who, like her, were amazing, flexible and supportive as partners through it all, plus a joy to work with. We can't recommend Magda highly enough, especially if you're looking for someone with experience thoughtfully planning socially distant weddings and/or

Would recommend whole-heartedly. A hands on dynamo with a wealth of practical wisdom about weddings. Extremely knowledgeable about vendor standards and costs (what should be expected, what’s nonsense), and when and how to get things done. Very reassuring to have involved at the event - always a step ahead and in the know.

Magdalena was the planner for our wedding in the Hudson Valley in May 2019, and -- thanks to her -- the event was incredibly memorable, special, and executed perfectly. We went back and forth at the beginning of our process as to whether we needed a wedding planner, and are so unbelievably happy that we not only decided to go with one -- but specifically that we went with Magdalena.
Here's why: Magdalena conducted numerous site visits to understand the venue (a private home where she'd never worked), and to map out exactly how the day and night would flow; she recommended almost every outside

Magdalena was absolutely the best we could wish for in a wedding planner. Not only did she come with great ideas for our wedding weekend but executed everything flawlessly. She always was on top of things and never ever seemed to get tired of our endless questions (and changes). She took a real honest interest in making our wedding weekend a very special event for us and for our guests. Even when she was working on other events we always had the feeling that we were the only ones she would care for. Selection and coordination with vendors, taking care of all the "little" things along the way, coordinating

Magdalena is a superwoman! Her talent, creative eye, passion for her clients and her craft, and her attention to detail are unparalleled. Working with her and pushing the creative limits on our very unique and atypical wedding was the most enjoyable experience of my whole wedding planning process. Magdalena was the breath of fresh air in the Upstate / Hudson Valley Wedding vendor circuit and we look forward to keeping in touch with her and her future events with Heirloom Fire.

Magdalena was our wedding planner for our mid September weddiing and we were so happy with her services! She was calm, professional and extremely knowledgeable. On the weekend of the wedding, she went above and beyond with everything. She was there to help me with anything before I even asked. I'd highly recommend her to any bride to be!
