Anita's Events is a Newmarket wedding-planning company whose official website also uses the name Dreams to Reality. Couples searching for an Anita's Events wedding planner Newmarket profile can consider several levels of support, from full and partial planning to month-of and day-of coordination. The live official site establishes the current identity much more clearly than the unrelated website previously attached to this listing.

The company says Anita has more than 10 years of event-planning and design experience and is a certified WPIC wedding planner. This profile was last reviewed on August 8, 2026 (2026-08-08). Package inclusions, prices and availability can change, so couples should obtain a dated written proposal before booking.

Services and specialization

The principal services documented on the official site are full-service wedding planning, partial planning, month-of planning and day-of coordination. Anita's Events also lists destination-wedding assistance, vow-renewal planning, event set-up and take-down, and butler service.

Its homepage says planning can include budget and timeline support as well as connections with local vendors. A separate resources page lists contacts across categories such as catering, entertainment, décor, florals, officiants, photography, attire and venues. Inclusion on that list is not an independent endorsement, so couples should still assess and contract each vendor directly.

Full-service planning for couples wanting involvement from start to finish
Customized partial planning for selected tasks and decisions
Month-of support beginning approximately eight to ten weeks before the wedding
Day-of support beginning approximately four to six weeks before the wedding

How the planning packages differ

The official package descriptions provide useful starting points. Full-service planning is framed around an approximately one- to one-and-a-half-year planning period. Partial planning is presented for weddings roughly six to eight months away, while month-of service starts earlier than the package name might suggest.

The detailed partial-planning page documents budget tracking, vendor communication, contract collection, theme and colour guidance, venue-meeting attendance, seating-chart assistance, timelines and wedding-day coordination. It says the wedding-day component can cover up to 12 hours and includes at least one planner and an assistant, with an additional assistant for weddings exceeding 175 guests.

Service area and who it may suit

Anita's Events is based in Newmarket. The official partial-planning page says its starting price includes travel up to one hour away, but it does not define that radius by municipality. Couples elsewhere in York Region or the Greater Toronto Area should provide the venue address and ask whether travel, parking or accommodation charges apply.

Full planning may suit couples who want early, ongoing involvement. Partial planning may fit couples who want to retain some decisions while delegating others. Month-of or day-of coordination is intended for couples who have completed most planning but want professional help bringing the plans together and managing the celebration.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

Documented features include four WPIC-certified planners on staff, several planning levels and a detailed partial-package scope. The partial package also states that planners carry an emergency kit and distribute the final agenda to vendors. These are confirmed operational features, not guarantees of a particular outcome.

The site does not identify the planner assigned to every booking, publish current availability or explain whether every listed inclusion applies to customized packages. Its main packages page also contains the outdated statement “Now booking for 2025.” Couples planning a 2026 or later wedding should therefore confirm that all dates, staffing terms and inclusions remain current.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published for full-service, month-of or day-of planning. The detailed partial-planning page lists a starting price of $2,500, including travel up to one hour, with accommodation charged separately. Because the page does not show an effective date, request a current written quote.

The main packages page lists destination-wedding packages from $2,500 plus flights and accommodation, and set-up/take-down from $250. Butler service is listed at $40 per hour for the first server with a three-hour minimum; additional servers are listed at $30 per hour. Holiday supplements and flat rates may apply. Confirm taxes, travel, staffing, hours and any third-party costs.

Contact and booking

Use anitasevents.ca as the official website. Its navigation includes a contact page, package information, examples of work and wedding resources. The verified official pages available for this review did not expose a phone number clearly enough to reproduce here, so the phone field has been left blank.

When enquiring, include the wedding date, venue or municipality, approximate guest count, preferred package and the planning work already completed. Ask for a consultation and a proposal identifying the assigned planner, service period, wedding-day hours, assistant staffing, payment schedule and cancellation terms.

What couples should confirm

Before signing, compare the proposal with the website description and clarify any customized terms. Month-of and day-of labels vary among planners, making the actual start date and task list more important than the package name.

Couples should also confirm who communicates with vendors, whether rehearsal coverage is included, what décor the team will set up, when take-down ends and how unexpected overtime is billed. For destination or out-of-area weddings, obtain a complete estimate for travel and accommodation.
