About

On WeddingWire since 2018

Odyssey Events is a wedding planning business based in Bridgewater Corners, Vermont, that serves a large surrounding area. The owners, event planner Linda and cooking instructor, Ted, have managed restaurants, nightclubs and even a farm in their 30 years in the planning and management industry. Now, at Odyssey Events, Linda and Ted focus on the details and organization of your wedding day while you sit back, relax, and enjoy the celebration from beginning to end.

Services Offered

As the former owners of a nationally acclaimed restaurant, Linda and Ted of Odyssey Events are both seasoned in handling couples’ every want and need as they plan the wedding of their dreams. Their wedding planning services include budget analysis, event design, guest list creation, and vendor referrals. Odyssey Events also offers day-of coordination, partial planning and full planning services for civil unions, destination weddings, and cultural and religious ceremonies.

Hi, I'm Linda, and I've spent most of my life taking care that others have a good time. I love what I do and with years of experience planning events on private estates and in my own restaurant, I know weddings are all about you!

I can take the back seat, listen, and advise if necessary (so you avoid any unaware hazards ahead) or I can take the lead and help you make decisions from all the wonderful choices that lay before you.

Having managed an estate farm, I know something about farm to table and barn affairs--all the rage! Elegant or rustic I can deliver farm to table in spades.

I also can oversee food and wine so even your fussiest of foodies are happy. From choosing musicians, florists, and help with design to overseeing caterers and all the remaining logistics so you need not have a care, I will help make your day—the one you have been dreaming of—a beautiful, and fun reality.

(Until now most of my events have been private affairs, with discretion used for social media or publicity, so you won't find me in publications for my planning capabilities, but I can provide contact information for praise in this regard.)

Super difficult wedding to pull off but did it with ease!

Linda and Ted were the DREAM TEAM! We could not have made our wedding more difficult but they were absolutely instrumental in bringing it all together! Not only did they give great recommendations for vendors since we don't live in Vermont, Linda also had fab taste in design and food choice. The wedding went off without a hitch (seriously not one thing happened out of place). We were living across the country and decided to build out an entire venue across two properties including gas, electric, cook tent etc. to have the wedding feel very special on the family property. That entire weekend will go down in history and all of our friends and family keep telling us it was the best and most fun wedding they've ever been to! Ted and Linda for the win!!

Fantastic wedding planning experience

Linda at Odyssey Events was a joy to work with in planning our recent wedding! I think we would have been lost without her. We wanted to get married at a special place to us, which meant that we needed to rent all of our wedding supplies, as we weren't working with an established wedding venue. Linda ensured that no details were overlooked, and our wedding was so beautiful and special as a result. Linda helped us with all aspects of the wedding planning process from finding vendors to designing gorgeous tablescapes to coordinating with all of our vendors so I could relax and enjoy the wedding day. Linda has a lot of wisdom from her prior event experience, and she was communicative and fun to work with. Linda was so valuable during our planning process, and I highly recommend working with her!

Assistant Planner

Before Chef Ted headed into a kitchen full-time he helped oversee the front-of the house at our restaurant. Other than food his focus was wine-oriented as well as being customer-centric.

When we work a wedding together there are four pairs of eyes to insure everyone's needs are being met, and being naturally gregarious, Ted is warm and welcoming to all guests.

He steps in wherever is needed to help, striving to make your event glitchless!
