Dear Clover,

Rob and Katie Bruckner want to thank you from the bottom of our newlywed hearts!

We could not have been more thrilled with your work on our wedding. The amount of effort that goes into planning an event like this is astonishing; however, we never felt overwhelmed with you by our side. You worked tirelessly to guide us through the process and made everything absolutely painless. You even kept us all calm for the duration of the pre-wedding blizzard, which was no easy feat. Astonishingly, you also somehow made everything run like clockwork in over a foot of snow.

From your relationships with established Berkshire vendors to your willingness to work with some unique ideas to help realize our vision, we could not have asked for greater patience, professionalism, or encouragement. The process would not have been as absolutely perfect without you being part of each step. As the bride, I felt that you sincerely and consistently understood what I wanted… even when I wasn’t sure myself. What’s more, you made the actual wedding weekend so seamless that both of us truly enjoyed every moment. I am grateful for all that you are and all that you did for us.

Frankly, you’re fun, you’re fabulous, and a total joy to work with and be around. We could not have asked for a better experience. Every couple should be so lucky as to have a “Clover” of their own.

With warmest thanks,
Katie Daily Bruckner

Dear Clover,

You made us guests at our own event. In reality, nothing more need be said.

Your style, your connections, your ability to listen to what is needed/desired and then to execute and “make it happen”, your skill at making what can be envisioned a reality… the entire package, resulted in an event that exceeded every goal and expectation that we had…

You connected us to the vendors who would match our needs and peculiarities. They exceeded our expectations, as well… You kept us on task so that nothing was forgotten and nothing was left undone.  And you did it all in a way that brought us closer to you, increased our respect for the part you play, and always with a sense of confidence that all would be well in the end. AND all was better than well in the end.

We received numerous comments of commendation for how the entire weekend transpired. There was always enough time to enjoy each event separately. Each event led to the next. Each event complemented the others. The entire weekend flowed from mid-Friday through the Sunday morning brunch. All guests left yearning for more… It was exactly as we wanted and better than we should have expected. So many things that could have gone wrong, that could have been a disappointment, that could have been flat, and nothing except wonderful outcomes were experienced throughout the three-days of events.

We have never been to an event where all the people were happy all the time. The pictures from all the participants, as well as from the official event photographers, are replete with happy faces enjoying the moment. And as stated above and issued as one of your hopes, we were truly guests at the events. There was nothing we had to do except enjoy the moment… and we did.

We cannot thank you enough.

We wish you all the best.

With sincere appreciation,

Dear Clover,

We just got back from our trip and wanted to thank you for all the hard and brilliant work you did for our wedding-you completely captured the vision for it (even though it was a bit different) and helped us have a beautiful, smooth and uneventful event. Thanks to you we were able to enjoy the evening. Again, thanks a million-it was truly a pleasure meeting you and working with you.

Warm regards,

Hi Clover,

John and I are finally home from our honeymoon (unfortunately). I want to thank you again for all of your hard work and assistance over the past few months. Without you, I think October 11 would have been a nightmare for me rather than the truly wonderful and joyous party that  it was. If you ever need a reference, please feel free to use us.

Again thank you so very much. You were an absolute godsend!”

Clover is the best wedding planner ever! I say that in all seriousness. Our wedding was spectacular and the wedding planning process was a breeze. She is professional, responsive, detail oriented, and creative. If you are looking to get married in the Berkshires of MA, no other wedding planner will do!

Clover is cool. She is smart and hip with classic style. She was able to take all of my ideas and incorporate them into a wedding plan that not only took advantage of the local beauty of the Berkshires but also fit my budget. She found out what elements were most important to us and built the rest of the wedding around that. We loved working with her.

Without Clover, our wedding would have been half as beautiful and twice as stressful.  Clover, we can’t possibly thank you enough..

Clover’s first event was just a few weeks after she started here at The Lenox Athenaeum and she immediately made an impact by flawlessly organizing and orchestrating an elegant evening event that ran very smoothly. She took initiative, was creative and followed through on the details to make that night, and many other events at the Lenox Athenaeum, beautiful. In the last year she has successfully helped create and execute numerous receptions, lectures, concerts and dinners.
Throughout, she did so with a great attention to detail so that the events came off without stress to the staff as well as having a great degree of flair which made them memorable.

We wanted a classic Berkshire wedding, casually elegant. Clover has impeccable taste but also really listened to what we wanted. The result was a day that felt totally “us”, but way more organized and streamlined than we are! I wouldn’t have changed a thing, it was perfect!

Clover Bell-Devaney is a skilled event planner who can accomplish more in 20 minutes than most people accomplish in 2 hours.  She has created relationships with a fine roster of vendors that gives her special access to expert help for parties and events.  She is extremely organized and brings this organization to any event; creating order out of a typically chaotic situation.  Her on-site coordination before and during an event can mean the difference between enjoying your own party and being overwhelmed at your own party.
