The entire team is the most uncommunicative people we've encountered in planning our wedding. They don't care to take notes when you have calls with them nor do they care about responding to texts to confirm info in writing. They also could care less about future military spouses which is sad because some of their staff are married to veterans. If you are planning your wedding avoid at all costs unless you want to be treated disrespectfully by this team.

Working with Becky Lampp and her incredible team at Spanish Oak Events was truly one of the highlights of planning our December 2025 wedding at Brennan’s! From our very first call, Becky made us feel seen, supported, and genuinely excited — like we were planning not just a wedding, but our wedding. As a couple planning from out of state, we relied heavily on her expertise, design creativity, calm guidance, and connections — and she delivered beyond what we imagined. Becky helped us discover vendors who fit our style, managed every detail with grace, and kept us organized through her helpful planning portal, thoughtful and personalized emails, and phone calls and text check-ins. We never felt overwhelmed. On our wedding day, the Spanish Oak Events crew — Becky, Thom, Zoomz, and the whole team — guided us seamlessly from the quiet excitement of getting ready through our incredible First Look and all the way to the final moments of our ceremony and reception at Brennan’s, helping create special, intentional moments we’ll never forget. They ensured everything ran flawlessly in the background so we could simply be present and enjoy the day. We even received compliments from guests about how much they enjoyed meeting Becky and her team — she didn’t feel like a vendor, but a meaningful part of the celebration. We truly cannot imagine our wedding without them and are so grateful for the partnership, the peace of mind, and the genuine friendship we gained along the way. If you're looking for a planner who is professional, warm, organized, and truly cares, contact Becky Lamp with Spanish Oak Events. We’re so grateful and couldn’t recommend them more!

Becky and her team did an incredible job with the planning and day-of coordination of our wedding in New Orleans. They gave us honest opinions about the essentials, kept us to a timeline, and recommended the most incredible vendors. We had such a unique beautiful wedding that reflected our style because of them! The day-of coordination was also perfect. Zoomz was amazing, and not a minute went by that I didn’t have a drink or food. She literally got under my wedding dress and bustled it with my friends - really went above and beyond! Everyone on the team was incredibly kind and so appreciated by my friends and family alike. And my guests said that the day couldn’t have gone more smoothly!

I HIGHLY recommend a wedding planner. Becky and Julia helped us to plan and execute our vision of our wedding day. They helped us sort through our ideas and also helped us not waste time out things that wouldn't work out well. For example, using real candles instead of tea lights is a waste of time because the candles just blow out. That saved us so much money and our reception still looked so romantic. Becky made sure I didn't have to do any problem solving on our wedding day and I could just enjoy the day. If something went wrong--then I had no idea. They work with reputable vendors so you can trust your vendors which is so HUGE. I cannot recommend Spanish Oaks enough.

Becky from Spanish Oak Events is the BEST planner in New Orleans, full stop. She’s organized, calm under pressure, and genuinely cares about her couples. Planning from out of state, we needed someone we could fully trust and Becky exceeded every expectation. She worked seamlessly with all our vendors, handled last-minute issues (including a transportation hiccup that she somehow turned into an upgrade!), and kept our day running perfectly. She’s both detail-oriented and flexible, giving us structure while letting the day unfold naturally. If you want a planner who’s professional, warm, and deeply experienced, Becky is your person. We’d choose her again a thousand times over.

It's been one week since our wedding at Brennan's with Spanish Oak Events at the helm of the most important day of our lives. You can read my entire review if you like, but you could also stop here and just book them. I mean it - your search is over. Just do it. ...Still reading? Fine. You're like me then. A bit type A -- but not enough hours in the day to commit to blowing up your entire life to plan a wedding. I can confidently say now that I'm on the other side of it: It IS possible to plan a wedding without completely losing your mind. But you do need help. Spanish Oak Events (Becky) is the real deal from start to finish. They were the first to respond to my request for a proposal & first to schedule an interview with us - I took my time and shopped around briefly for other planners, but I knew in my heart that Becky was the right fit for us. Becky is warm, organized, process-oriented, well-connected, hilarious, and deeply serious about what she does. In an industry that has turned personal emotional moments into Instagram captions, Becky shines as an authentic human being with an iron-clad event production process. She understands how to read people (yes - including difficult guests & vendors) and will smooth even the finest wrinkles in a plan to ensure you get the outcome you desire. Oftentimes, Becky knew what we wanted before we even did. As a couple planning our wedding from afar (NYC) - it was always important to us to have someone local helping us along. There are so many nuances to planning a New Orleans wedding that you’d never know about - from special French Quarter taxes, to second line permitting, to filling out a Louisiana marriage license - Becky confidently ushered us through it all. Of course, there are the basics of planning any wedding that can also feel overwhelming. Budgeting? Becky has a template for that. Vendor contracts? Becky will read every single one before you sign to ensure you’re covered. Payment deadlines? Becky knows when every deposit is due & has it all organized seamlessly in her online portal. I literally work in event/production finance - and Becky was still always, ALWAYS a step ahead of me. Our wedding guests cannot stop gushing over how "well-run" and "comfortable" the event itself was. We all felt like we were floating all weekend - and have yet to come down from the high of it all. I keep thinking back to the way Becky orchestrated the entire end of our ceremony. She was somewhere between a director and a performer herself. The way she moves through an event is remarkable - present and focused, but fluid and jovial at the same time. It was like watching a professional dancer - you know that it takes years of training to get to that level of "effortlessness." Best money I've ever spent in my entire life. Hands down. I would do the wedding all over again if it meant I could have Becky plan it.
