I don’t even know where to begin….This was the most amazing experience I’ve ever had planning for a party. This was our first time working with an event planner and Alkmini was everything I hoped she would be and so much more! Taking our vision for our daughter’s sweet 16, bringing it to life, as well as managing all of the details in between, was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Communication was on point from beginning to end and the day of the party was pure perfection! I don’t think I’ll ever be able to host another party without “For the love of details”. Thank you so much for an unforgettable night!!! xoxo 5 stars all the way!!!

Alkmini is an absolute genius. She made my darkest Halloween surprise birthday party dreams come to life. She was such a pleasure to work with. Every detail was perfect, and incorporated all of the ideas I would not have been able to bring to life on my own. She created a vibe that was spooky chic and every guest raved about the decor, centerpieces, favors and additional treats. I could not have had a better planning experience and recommend that you hire her for literally everything.

For the Love of Details is a top notch event planning and design company. Alkmini & Whitney are absolutely incredible. They made planning my son’s first birthday an exciting and stress-free experience. We had over 100 guests and multiple vendors – and my family just had to show up! Alkmini was able to take my ideas and execute them beyond what I could ever dream of. She is incredibly organized, efficient, and creative. One thing I really admire about and appreciate Alkmini for is her ability to discern my individual taste and style, and then apply that to the overall event design (as well as every single detail). Alkmini and Whitney were with me every step of the way. They are excellent communicators (not only with me but the outside vendors, venue staff, etc.) and always respond quickly. Alkmini is able to think outside of the box and really bring any idea to life. It is the attention to and love for every single detail that Alkmini and her team possess that made my event such an incredible, out of this world experience!

100% RECOMMEND!! I hired For The Love of Details to help plan, decorate and organize my engagement party. Alkmini was super easy to work with, and made my vision come to life! She is organized, professional, a hardworker and ton of fun! Thank you Alkmini….until the next party!! xo
– Christina Cuomo
Hiring a wedding planner was the best decision we made! Alkmini and Whitney together made the process of planning our wedding so relaxing, collaborative, and FUN! With the numerous vendor connections/ relationships they had, it made it so easy to find exactly what we wanted from custom hotel toiletries, delicious cookie favors, decor, stationary and everything in between. They have an incredible wealth of knowledge on how to throw an epic party in NJ/NY and it shows.
When it came to the wedding itself they are exactly who we needed to ensure we were able to enjoy an absolutely perfect, stress free, and memorable day. The design enhancements Alkmini recommended blew us away it was more beautiful than anything we could’ve designed! She listened to our every request and found creative ways to tie personal elements throughout the entire weekend.
On top of their INCREDIBLE work product, Alkmini and Whitney are a joy to work with. They are patient, flexible, incredibly organized and detail oriented. They kept us on track which we really needed. I could not recommend them enough. They will plan definitely be planning all of our future parties!

My husband and I are so grateful to have had Alkmini and her team help us create the wedding of our DREAMS! We chose a venue in upstate New York that only provided chairs and folding tables-the rest was up to us. There is absolutely NO WAY we could have pulled off our festival-themed wedding without Alkmini’s help. She was there from the start and guided us through each step of the process-from creating vision boards, searching through possible vendors, staying on schedule and answering the endless amount of questions I had for her. She is extremely creative too and thought of some great and fun ideas to go with our theme that we would not have thought of. Oh, did I mention this wedding happened during the pandemic? When I said Alkmini was there every step of the way, I meant it! Alkmini provided us ease during our postponement and helped us find new Vendors who couldn’t commit to our new date. Alkmini and Whitney were also AMAZING on our wedding day and rehearsal dinner. They were fun, professional and made sure everything went smoothly. If there was a problem, I didn’t know about it! Eric and I really feel so lucky we had For the Love of Details on our team. I will definitely be working with these ladies again when we throw another theme party!

Can’t say enough great things about For the Love of Details! Alkmini & Whitney were wonderful to work with. From the first day we met they made me feel like I was the only client they had, very attentive & responsive. They took our ideas for the party & put their special touches on to make it fabulous! They transformed the restaurant into a beautiful black & white cocktail brunch, we were blown away when we walked in! Alkmini & Whitney were there personally, before, during, after the event making sure everything was perfect & ran smoothly. The decor, center pieces& dessert table were 10/10, but the flower table/favors were the hit of the party. Their spin on this new shower trend is out of this world! We have gotten so much positive feedback about the party & gorgeous flower favors that our guests got to enjoy all week. Would highly recommend For the Love of Details & we will absolutely be using them for future events! Thank you ladies for everything, we adore you & truly enjoyed working with you for this shower! – Elaine & Jenna Ferlise

Thanks to Alkmini and For the Love of Details I had the most perfect baby shower; my guests are still raving about it!
From the moment I met Alkmini, I felt like she just got me — my vision and my goals for the event. I trusted her with every detail of the day and have absolutely ZERO regrets.
She is a true professional and powerhouse, managing multiple vendors and fielding calls and emails from venue management and family members who wanted to part of the planning. It’s tough work but she makes it look so easy.
Alkmini made my baby shower so beautiful and stress-free I was sad when it was over. Working with her was truly a pleasure… so much so that I’m looking forward to planning my next event!
– Danielle Rondinone
My Wife and I had the wedding we were hoping to have thanks to Alkmini and her team. Everything went so smoothly, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We had our wedding a few days after New York officially fully opened up after covid and with that came a lot of last minute changes that were taken in stride and executed perfectly. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator! She was the best!
– Daniel Altchech
I cannot recommend For the Love of Details Enough! I hired them as my coordinators for my 150 person wedding in Manhattan and they went above and beyond to make sure my day was seamless! Alkmini and Whitney were incredibly organized and made sure that every i was dotted and t was crossed before my wedding day so I could totally just enjoy the day and didn’t have to think about a thing! They made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free! They were incredible with my vendors and everyone enjoyed working with them!
– Nora Minno
Alkmini and her team were exceptional in producing our vision for our bridal shower. Throughout the whole process, and what a challenging time it was during Covid, she was very professional and understanding. She exceeded our expectations and was there for us every step of the way. Alkmini always responded to our questions in a timely manner and accommodated all of our needs. It was such a pleasure to work with her, and I would highly recommend her and plan to use her again for all of my future celebrations.
– Maria Jaramillo
For the Love of Details is a must have on your wedding day! I could not have made it through the day without them! They truly made the experience so much less stressful! They were my brain for the day! From the moments of getting ready, to keeping us on schedule, to getting us down the aisle, to finally making sure we were fed and had a drink in hand at all times! They were there for every single moment. They even made sure I had all my things together and in place to go home with me before they left for the night. I really couldn’t have imagined the day without them! Do yourself a favor and hire them for the best wedding experience!
– Ariana Sylvestro
For the Love of Details planned the most amazing bridal shower for my daughter! Alkmini was wonderful to work with!

Alkmini and Whitney put up our interior Christmas decorations this year. They were extremely professional and respectful of the protocols due to the current restrictions. They completed everything in a timely matter. In a year that has been so depressing for many they have made our home look beautiful and uplifted our holiday spirits. We love all the decorations and are so thankful to them. We highly recommend For the Love of Details.
– Stella Buffalano
Alkmini and Whitney were wonderful!!! I called them 4 weeks before my event and they helped me give my daughter the most beautiful Bridal shower in my backyard! Words can’t express my gratitude for everything they did in a short amount of time. Thank you for your creativity and your spirit in the creation of my daughters special day. Love from the bottom of our hearts – Diane and Alyssa

I go all out for my children’s birthday parties, and I’ve found no one that is as creative, organized and efficient as Alkmini! Everything she does is perfection personified. From the grand details all the way to the minute ones, everything is always so expertly executed. She takes ideas and turns them into a beautiful reality. I couldn’t imagine having a party without For the Love of Details!

Alkmini helped make my daughter’s bridal shower beautiful! She worked with me in putting together an event that was exactly as I imagined but could never do on my own. I highly recommend. Check out her website and you won’t be disappointed.
– Annemarie Gulino
Alkmini made sure every detail ran smoothly and perfectly to our liking leading up to and the day of our wedding. She thought of everything before we did and seemed to see everything before we did. We had the most perfect day BC we didn’t have to deal with ANYTHING besides bask in the happiest day ever. What a blast-she’s the best investment we made for the day … do not try to do it all yourself-just hire her!
– Christopher Mula
Alkmini was the day of coordinator for my wedding on 9.7.19 at The Great Lawn in Long Branch, NJ as well as the reception that followed at the Sheraton of Eatontown. Alkmini was a complete professional the entire day. She was my right hand lady. She helped with every emergency, every thing that may have happened that was unexpected and honestly helped me fully enjoy the day. I’d highly recommend her for anyone getting married looking for a coordinator who will take care of anything life throws at you! She is excellent at being diplomatic, corralling people, being an assistant, you name it, there’s nothing truly she cannot do! Now only if I had a person like this in my day to day 🙂
– Stephanie Bowers
Just wanted to thank you again!! Everything was exactly what I envisioned! I was literally getting compliments all day how everything was set up. Really so beautiful! Thank you for making everything so easy!
– Megan Tweer
Alkmini is amazing! She made the vision of our perfect wedding a reality. Her attention to detail and ability to listen to our wants and needs was incredible. Alkmini’s custom pieces added a personal touch to our special day that had wedding guests talking for weeks. Every item that Alkmini provided to us, from the rented sign to the photo booth props were customized to make our wedding one of a kind. She matched flowers from our centerpieces to the signs we rented and the stationary from our invitations to our our escort cards perfectly! I can’t wait to work with Alkmini again for future parties and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to pull off the perfect party!
– Kelsey Anne Sullivan
Alkmini did an amazing job with COA’s Dancing in the Moonlight! She went above and beyond to make this a special event, while keeping on our low budget, short time frame, and environmentally friendly, sustainable requests. Not only did she design beautiful decor but made the night one to remember by all guests. COA and I would highly recommend For the Love of Details for your upcoming events! Thank you, Alkmini!
– Tory Woods
I worked with Alkmini and her team as a model for both fashion shows to benefits the small businesses in Red Bank and it was such a pleasure working with her.

I highly recommend using her services!!

Loved working with her!!

– Maria Elizabeth
Alkmini is an absolute dream come true when it comes to planning and especially day of coordination. She made everything flow so smoothly … she was with me every minute and knew what I needed before I did! We had an issue with shuttles at the end of the night, and I didn’t even know it was an issue because she just handled it! Absolutely love her and her energy … she is calming, yet on schedule, efficient, organized, friendly … couldn’t have done it without her! My entire bridal party and family RAVED about her because she not only helped me–she was everyone’s support! Don’t think–just hire her. Best investment EVER.

– Liz Maranitz
We truly could not have had such a perfect day without Alkmini. Alkmini came on board about a month before our wedding, when we realized there were a lot more little details and logistics to handle than we had anticipated! Alkmini was amazing at communicating and checking in with us in the weeks leading up to the wedding. On the day of, Alkmini was somehow everywhere at once! We weren’t disturbed by a single issue the entire night – Alkmini took care of every organizational aspect and then some! Our day would not have been as smooth and stress-free if it were not for Alkmini. She’s the best!!
– Jamie Costello
Talk about a one stop shop! Thanks to Alkmini and her team our wedding was everything we hoped it would be and more! Truly could not have done it without them. Everyone on the team was extremely helpful, professional and genuinely fun to be around. I honestly could not imagine planning our wedding without their help. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GIVE THEM A CALL!! Love you guys, thank you so much!!
– Billy Mooney
To say Alkmini has found her calling is an understatement! I have known Alkmini for over 20 years and she has never been more in her element in this career path than any other job I have seen her in. It was a no-brainer having her plan my daughters 2nd birthday party. All I had to tell her is the theme (Alice in Wonderland) and that I wanted her to take over from A to Z and then the magic happened. Her professionalism is evident from the first minute you speak with her up to the moment she steps out of your event. We are long time friends and so of course she was at the party, but she put her duties first and foremost in order to be able to enjoy the party once set up. There was a snafu with the catering, that was out of her control, but she jumped right on top of it and took care of the issue without a hiccup. I look forward to having another event for her to plan.
– Maria Panagiotidis Toubroukji
