— Priyah Gatherings
I cannot say enough wonderful things about In The Nick Of Time Events! She planned both my 50th birthday celebration and my daughter's Sweet Sixteen, and both events exceeded our expectations.
She has an incredible ability to take your ideas and inspiration photos and turn them into something even better than you imagined. She didn't just recreate our vision—she elevated it. Her creativity and attention to detail are amazing, and she thought of so many little touches that we never would have considered ourselves.
What I especially loved was that the two celebrations were completely different, yet she captured the vision and personality of each one perfectly. Everything was beautiful, thoughtful, and flawlessly put together.
It's an amazing feeling to walk into your event and see everything you envisioned brought to life—and somehow made even better. We trusted In The Nick Of Time Events with two very special milestones for our family, and she delivered both times. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an event planner who is creative, professional, detail-oriented, and truly invested in making your celebration special.

I had the pleasure of working with Tarnesha Nickens of In The Nick Of Time Events to refresh my living space, and I couldn't be happier with the results!
My space was in need of a refresh, and I wanted to create an environment that felt warm, inviting, and beautiful while still being functional for everyday living. Tarnesha brought that vision to life with such creativity and attention to detail.
From start to finish, she was professional, personable, and truly listened to what I wanted. Her eye for design, ability to incorporate my style, and creative approach made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. She transformed my living space into a warm, welcoming area that feels like home while still being functional and stylish.
