Devin Murphy: I cannot even imagine my wedding day without Saundra's help. I live out of town (like it takes me over 5 hours to travel by plane) and had ONE week of actual time in Evansville to plan. Saundra orchestrated everything from setting up the food/cake trial to finding a florist to execute my vision to perfection. She took every single stress that comes with wedding planning and made it disappear. From vendor recommendations to literally telling me when I needed to do what, she made the whole process enjoyable and easy. If you are even slightly overwhelmed with were to begin after getting engaged (or planning on being engaged as I was when I hired her haha) I can make it easy for you: HIRE SAUNDRA AND PLANNING FOREVER EVENTS! There is absolutely no way you will regret it. Being able to show up the day of your wedding and not worry about a single thing is priceless, especially when it is the wedding of your dreams.

Janet Dauby: Our family had the pleasure of first meeting Saundra when she planned our daughters wedding five years ago. We were so impressed in how she handled every little detail leading up to the wedding as well as the day of. We would not have been able to enjoy our daughters wedding as much as we did, if not for Saundra. She went above and beyond our expectations of what a wedding planner is and does. We basically showed up, enjoyed the wedding and Saundra took care of all other matters (vendors, decorations, food, music, pictures, scheduling, etc.). So, when our son announced that he would be getting married in May, we immediately called Saundra. Once again, Saundra went above and beyond and the wedding was absolutely perfect! Our family truly believes in wedding planners and her name is Saundra Hadley of Planning… Forever Events!! Thank you for two great weddings!

Collin Jones: Saundra is a fantastic event planner! All of the vendors that we used for our daughter's wedding absolutely love working with her, and that speaks volumes. Saundra is professional, personable, has fabulous taste, and offers creative suggestions. She knows what will work at an event and is able to execute her detailed plans to perfection. She is honest with her opinions and tactful in her delivery, always working to make the customer's wishes come true. We are so glad that we chose her for our daughter's wedding! We were able to enjoy the day and knew that she had it all under control. There is really no other choice for an event planner - she's the best there is!Edit: I used my Mother-in-laws computer briefly over Thanksgiving and it looks like she wrote this review under my account. I'm going to let it stand, because I agree with her, but I just want to clarify. Our wedding was fantastic.

Susan Dunn: Saundra and her staff did a fabulous job! Allowed us to enjoy the week leading up to and the wedding day knowing that all details were covered. Very easy to work with, open to new suggestions and offers wonderful input.Does an awesome job coordinating and communicating with vendors. Couldn't have been happier!

Mackenzie Black: Saundra was great to work with and made the day of our wedding run so smoothly! Her and her team have a lot of experience, and it is clear to see that they know what they are doing. I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding because I knew they had it under control. It was so nice to be able to enjoy the day and not have to stress out about small details. I would highly recommend her and her team for any event!

Khristian Hart-Choate: Saundra is absolutely amazing! From start to finish, she made my life and my families lives easier through the wedding planning process. Various planning meetings and bouncing ideas off each other, Saundra does a great job of bringing your vision to light! I was actually sad when my wedding day was over because Saundra and I truly bonded over the past 9+ months! If you're on the fence about bringing a wedding planner on board, I will always say go for it! It is sooo worth it in the end. There were many things that my mom and mother in law didn't think about until Saundra mentioned them. In short, planning forever events is the BEST! I had such a great experience, and Saundra allowed me to truly enjoy the best day of my life!

Jennifer Barron: Dear Saundra, words cannot express my gratitude for your experience and expertise throughout the planning for my daughters wedding. You guided us throughout every process and step and without your expertise the wedding of my daughter's dreams could never have happened the way it did. You respected our input and with your talent helped us to create exactly what we wanted. When my stress level seemed like it could go through the roof you gave me legitimate reasons as to why everything really was under control and for that I am so very thankful. The décor, oh the décor! What an absolutely beautiful job you did. With the input of what we wanted and your special designer talent it was beyond our expectation. The day of the wedding, well how do you do it? It ran so smoothly. Everything, every person, and every moment. Thank you, you are a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with you again some day. Outstanding! Love and thank you from the Mother of the Bride.

Average Joe Reviews: Planning Forever Events team did a fantastic job. We used them for all of the logistics part of our wedding. They made a plan and executed it flawlessly. Anyone in the Evansville, IN that is planning a wedding and needs a planner should definitely talk to Saundra and her team.

Becky Kasha: My daughter said it was the wedding of her dreams. I never could have done it without Saundra. She saved us money, time and a lot of hassles.

Merrill Bradford: I have worked with Saundra on corporate events for the past three years! She takes a huge weight off my shoulders by handling all of the event day details, vendor communications, decoration, and much more. Our events have gotten better and better each year and I attribute that to our partnership with her!

Christina Bennett: What can we say! Saundra made our wedding day seamless and oh so wonderful. We did a web search for wedding planners in the Evansville area and PFE popped up. We contacted Saundra and we were off and running with planning shortly after that. We worked with Saundra for more than a year to plan our special day. She is amazing and does take the time to get to know her clients well. She knew what was important to us and made sure to highlight those must-haves in the wedding. the wedding was perfect, and every detail covered. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. We highly recommend Saundra and her team and we hope to be using her services for future events.

Samantha Taffer: As soon as we got engaged I knew better than to try and plan my wedding alone. My family is all spread out and we had "special circumstances" in which a planner was extremely helpful. After turning to social media I got refered to PFE. I got in contact with Saundra & expressed to her my wants, desires & special circumstances. We instantly clicked, to say the least. She knew what I was thinking before I even said anything. If it weren't for her my day could have been an absolute mess. (It literally hailed and we had an outdoor ceremony & we're still able to pull it off!!) Saundra suggested credible vendors who she knew would fit our personalities. (They were all beyond amazing.) When I told her my wedding day requests, that were next to impossible in our area, she came up with the most amazing plan. We planned with Saundra for 18 months to ask the city of Evansville to close down a public street for us to be able to have our ceremony on. 4 months before D-day we were granted that request! Never in a million years would I have thought of this. Apparently, no one else had either. We were the first in Evansville to do this. I highly suggest Saundra & the PFE team. Every single part of my day and the process leading up to it was perfect, hail included! Biggest thanks to Saundra & the rest of her amazing team for the best day ever!

Abby: Jane and her team are amazing!! They brought my vision to life and assured every detail was perfect. Highly recommend!!

Ellason Freeman Norton (Ella Freeman): Jane is truly the best around. She and her OBJ team are extremely detail oriented, creative, and diligent. OBJ Design was professional, considerate of our time, and made everything we wanted come to life. We would work with them 1000x over.

Jennifer Swedenburg: We could not have hired a better DJ, entertainment coordinator, sound artist, etc. for our wedding. I loved how organized Larry was from day one. I didn't have to think of our whole playlist ahead of time either! He got an idea of what we loved and wanted to hear by using his own creativity from the short list of songs we gave him. Also, if you're contemplating the photo booth this company offers, DO IT. It was worth every penny and other than his music, it was our guest favorite part of the night!! Feel free to reach out to me anytime if you want more info on how Larry helped to make our day perfect! I will definitely be using these services the next time I need entertainment!

Zoe Maxberry: Helped make my night the best day ever!

He met with us beforehand to ensure that all the music went smoothly, and he took such great care to honor our song and style preferences. He got us back on track with timing during the reception and made the whole night a blast! The special lights of our wedding color added the perfect touch for ambiance. We all danced and had a fun time that we’ll never forget!!! It was so affordable and fit our budget as well! I highly recommend Watts Entertainment for your next event. Book ‘em today!!!

William Edoziem: Most definitely top recommendation! He DJed for my wife and I's wedding reception and he not only kept the party poppin, he made everyone feel welcome!

Best DJ around!!

Unique: I hired Watts Entertainment for my wedding and this company blew me away!! I didn’t have a songlist together for the ceremony, nor did I have very many songs for the reception, so Watts asked us a few questions and crafted a perfect song list for our day! It was a huge blessing because we could focus on other things and not stress about the music. Watts was very professional and awesome to work with! He truly has a gift to turn up any event! Everyone at the reception had a BLAST and he knew what songs to play to keep everyone having a good time on the dance floor!! It was awesome, and he is AWESOME at what he does!! I have been to some of his other events and he consistently knows how to make any event a memorable and fun one you’ll never forget!! Book Watts Entertainment, I promise you will not be disappointed!!

Travis Johnson: WOW! WHAT A NIGHT!DJ Watts really helped set the atmosphere for the day that changed my life. Lots of people can play songs, but this brother took the time to get a feel for the vibe we wanted and taylored a soundtrack to our wedding day.Not only did he set the reception on fire, but I appreciate that he was available to oversee the songs during our ceremony too. This was Clutch because the church didn't have a person to do it for us.Since then I've also seen him light up several other events and he never disappoints.Professional, courteous, and constantly honing his craft. If you want your night to remember to be a night you remember, book Watts Ent!

Bre Wright: We recently hired Larry Watts for our wedding. Best DJ I’ve probably ever heard! He played a great variety of music and had everyone up and moving! We had tons of wonderful comments on the crowd engagement and music selection. Larry was personable, professional, and was always quick to respond to questions and requests. We would 100% hire him again for other events! He’s the best!
