In 2011, City Year Boston hired Rachel as a consultant to help manage and plan our biggest fundraiser of the year. She quickly adapted to our organization and worked well with our entire staff. She guided us through a comprehensive timeline that included all aspects of decor, program, vendors, audio/visual and volunteers. Her attention to detail, creativity and hard work helped us reach our goals in attendance and fundraising. Rachel was a great asset to us.

Rachel has worked on a number of events for me over the past several years. She has coordinated everything from full day large scale, thousands of people to small intimate parlor meetings in homes. I never have to think about the details of an event when Rachel is working behind the scenes. All items, large and small are taken care of, thought about and executed on time and with care. It is always fun to work with Rachel while getting everything accomplished.

In this day and age, it’s hard to find a company you can trust. Rachel G Events was recommended to me and now I know why. The quality of service we received was outstanding. She helped us connect to the Greater Boston Jewish Community and help bring our dream of bringing the first-ever Israel rowing team to the Head of the Charles to reality. Keep up the good work!

I hired Rachel for the first-ever Ruderman Fellows Program that brought Members of the Israeli Knesset to Boston and New York. With her expertise in planning, she helped make the inaugural program the success that it was-all of the coordination of travel, events, speakers, meals, attending to the needs of the participants and always being one step ahead of what needed to happen and doing it all in an efficient and professional manner.

It was truly a pleasure working with Rachel on my son’s Bar Mitzvah. Based on a recommendation from local Jewish organization, I called Rachel just 7 weeks from the event. She helped me pull together all the various elements of our Bar Mitzvah weekend including managing the vendors, creating schedules, negotiating contracts, and setting up the room. With her abundance of energy and professionalism, no detail went unnoticed. The event went off without a hitch in large part due to Rachel. She made sure everything and everyone was put in place and we knew Rachel was in charge so we could relax as guests at our own party. Hiring Rachel was a great decision and I highly recommend her services.

Rachel was recommended to me by the local Jewish federation to help plan the Boston component of the ground-breaking MAOZ-SEAL Fellows Leadership Program. The recommendation was spot-on as Rachel was the perfect event planner for my program. Her professionalism, attention to detail, enthusiasm and respect for our mission, and strong relationships within the Boston and Israeli communities was top-notch and it was her skills and organization that made our Boston program a success for 3 years.

We were fortunate to retain Rachel G Events to assist us in the preparations for our major dinner event as well as joining us on the day of the event to assist in the implementation. The attendance for the dinner exceeded 1,000 guests, and the event also included two separate catered receptions prior to the Dinner, one for VIP’s and a general reception. Rachel was instrumental in enabling our event to be the most successful in our history. She recommended a specific registration process which worked seamlessly, and afforded us the opportunity to register over 800 general reception guests in about 45 minutes time. In addition, she was instrumental in producing the credentials for the guests and was invaluable at both the VIP reception and throughout entire event. I highly recommend her services!
