With every detail designed and executed by the genius that is Stellina Events,
this is definitely one wedding that I’ll be revisiting time and time again.

Style Me Pretty

Founded by native New Yorker Amanda Diamondstein-Cieplinska ten years ago, Stellina Events plans local and destination weddings, as well as corporate and charity events (she’s done work for Microsoft and UNICEF, among others). For a high-profile couple married in Montreux, Switzerland, she arranged a ceremony at a cathedral overlooking Lake Geneva. Guests were then transported to the Fairmont Le Montreux Palace for cocktails and canapés under a tent in the gardens, followed by a reception in a grand ballroom.

I am in love with Amanda Diamondstein-Cieplinska at Stellina Events' work and can't recommend her enough. She treats every client with care and gives equal attention to the couple, no matter the size of the event.

Amanda has a keen eye for style and is sensitive to the couples' needs and aesthetics.  She creates beautiful tableaus and seamlessly executes every step of the process from consultation to wedding day with the same amount of energy and careful attention.

Amanda was available whenever we needed her input and always gave us the time we required. She is trustworthy and kind, friendly and professional. After months of searching for a photographer with no avail, she was able to find and introduce us to the perfect photographer whose style and aesthetics blended with ours. Without Amanda, I wouldn't have had the wedding of my dreams and the gorgeous photographs that I will always cherish. Thank you Amanda!

Amanda Diamondstein-Cieplinska of Stellina Events was an absolute pleasure to work with and a critical part of making my wedding a huge success and a day I’ll never forget! When I first met Amanda, I had many random ideas for my wedding but I was having issues piecing everything together. Amanda was able to guide me through the planning process to help me identify an overall vision and feel for my wedding from concept to execution. She was extremely professional, resourceful and patient in the planning process.

On the day of my wedding, Amanda was my eyes and ears. She worked directly with my vendors to ensure that my vision was executed and managed the flow of the day with ease and flexibility (despite what may have been going on behind the scenes with my venue/vendors). In the end, I was able to enjoy my wedding day with my husband and my guests, without thinking of any of the logistics/details that we worked so hard on to plan.

I would highly recommend amazing Amanda at Stellina Events for both day-of services and for the planning process leading up to the event. I can’t begin to rave enough about Amanda and how helpful and ESSENTIAL she was for this special time in my life!

I recently got married and I can't brag and thank Amanda enough.  It was like "Love at First Sight"; Amanda is very energetic, stylish, cultured, and sweet. She was so relatable that I figured hiring her would be like having a friend plan my wedding without all the risks of actually hiring a friend.

She understood our vision, and was supportive through our whole planning. So many people were impressed with her; some mentioned they wanted to do their weddings over again and hire her as their planner, whereas my bridesmaids simply wanted to take her home and have her as their new best friend!

As my husband always says: "What would we have done without Amanda." So, Ermir and I would like to thank you for making our dream wedding into reality, you were there for us through our hardest and most exciting moments too.

We are forever grateful to you for putting your energy and heart into our weekend!!!

Amanda is simply amazing! Every girl dreams of her perfect wedding day, and Amanda's professionalism, expertise, and genuine love of executing the fairy tale you've always imagined, brought my wedding daydreams to reality...and it was better than I could have imagined!

Thank you Amanda & Stellina Events!

Amanda was VERY professional through and through and made the entire experience very easy and pleasurable!!! I would recommend her to my best friends and family. On top of it she made you feel like you were not just working with a planner but a friend who really cares. She is really sensitive to what you want and will go the extra mile to make things work out. In the end she saved my sanity AND my wallet and I was able to have the wedding of my dreams. She rocks!!!!

Nate and I are more than impressed with Amanda. After meeting for the first time and having a brief conversation, she was able to pull together a detailed presentation providing a number of venue possibilities that reflected our desires and unique aspects of our personalities. We were blown away by how instinctively Amanda picked up on our styles. Most importantly, she is so genuinely excited to help us that anytime we were feeling stressed, Amanda’s calm and collected demeanor immediately put us at ease. She always has a creative idea or recommendation for any concern we raise. We are so lucky to be working with Amanda.

Amanda was a huge help! She helped me plan the honeymoon that everyone dreams of. My wife was blown away. Amanda was very thorough and insightful. What I liked the most about working with Amanda were all of the options that she gives you. She does the majority of the research, but still allowed me to make my own choices and feel a part of the process.

Her presentations on the destinations were so great. I went from being nervous about trying to plan the perfect honeymoon, to enjoying the process. The honeymoon was the trip of a lifetime, and my wife and I hade more fun than imaginable. Thank you so much Amanda. I will always recommend your services to anyone I know with the highest regard!

Dear Amanda,
Thank you for helping us plan our destination wedding in Denmark! As a couple from two different countries getting married in a third, it was a challenge to determine not just the location, but our agreed vision for the wedding. You helped us so much in this process and I cannot thank you enough for all that you have done.

You helped us map and locate wedding location possibilities, determine costs, negotiate with vendors and most importantly translate our wedding ideas into a workable action plan. I don't know how we would have gotten so far without you!

Amanda, you continuously exceeded our expectations by anticipating our needs and going above and beyond and by masterfully designing our event with a style that reflected our personalities and wishes.

Thank you so much!

Dear Amanda,
Words cannot even begin to express my gratitude to you for the incredible assistance you have rendered me in planning my promotion party for making Major in the US Army. I have never planned such an event, and I was quite intimidated at the thought of taking on such an undertaking. When it comes to finding a location, working with caterers, and contemplating how to turn the party into that incredible setting, well, I'm quite ignorant. I knew I needed help and I'm so grateful you came to the rescue.

My job requires much attention and involvement; I simply did not have the time to interface with so many different individuals to make this event come together. It was so refreshing to be able to turn to you for help. I appreciate how you strived to anticipate my questions and even provided answers to inquiries I did not even contemplate. The party is on track to be an amazing success and the credit for bringing it all together belongs to you. I do not even want to consider how things would have turned out if you had not been part of the process.

Thanks so much once again. The highest compliment we pay our colleagues in the military is when we say we would go into battle with them. Well, when it comes to event planning, I would go into battle with you anytime.

Sincerely,
Bill Putnam, Major, MI, US Army, Washington, D.C.

Although we are at the early stages of planning our wedding, Stellina Events, and in particular Amanda Diamondstein-Cieplinska, have been instrumental in helping craft the overall design for our wedding, and in particular in identifying venues in the south of France. We have been very impressed with her resourcefulness and knowledge, which has helped us determine the perfect location for our wedding.

Amanda brings a great perspective to event planning: creativity and elegance infused with pragmatism – and ability to reduce our stress. We wholeheartedly recommend Stellina Events for planning any event!

Amanda,
Thank you so much for all your help both leading up to and on the big day. It was truly an amazing help to have your advice, guidance and calm demeanor take over all the last minute tasks that would've had a type A person like myself stressing out! I think after the point where the processional started for me I completely let go for the evening and really had the time to focus on the event, our friends and just generally having a great time. Mike and I both reflected that we had a fantastic day and really got the most out of the whole event with no cares or worries about details.
