"Magnum Opus made my daughter's wedding a true Fairy Tale wedding complete with a horse-drawn carriage and ending in fireworks. The team at Magnum Opus went beyond my wildest dreams. They made everything run like clockwork and I never gave any thought on the day of the wedding of any details. Everything was set up perfectly and they moved everything along on a very tight timeline. They were flexible when needed but kept our crazy family in line. I honestly can't think of one complaint-they worked with me the entire journey and adapted to whatever we might have thrown their way. They kept me calm during a very up and down COVID journey. I was very honored to have worked closely with Patrick Butler. THEY ARE A MUST TO USE."

"I was hesitant to hire a planner for my wedding thinking I could do most of the planning on my own, but I found Patrick and Glenn while attending a wedding they planned. I can honestly say I had no idea just how much was involved in planning a wedding, it's a full-time job! Trevor and I are so grateful to Patrick and Glenn for their expertise and being three steps ahead of us the entire time. Details I didn't even consider, they were on top of, always making great recommendations and coming up with multiple plans for the unexpected. I felt they always had our best interests in mind and coordinated with all our vendors to make our dream day come true. Thank you for a perfect day!"

"My husband and I planned a destination wedding at Beaches Turks and Caicos. While the resort offers a great program and support, we knew we needed a professional looking out for us throughout the planning process and during our resort experience. Hiring Magnum Opus was the BEST decision we could have made. While working with Beaches, you are assigned one contact while preplanning and a completely different team onsite. This stressed me and my husband out to no end, but Patrick and Glenn were there for us through each detail and new development that occurred. When we arrived on site, we connected them with the Beaches team and the guys took it from there. We literally had no worries from that point on. They had an extremely detailed plan which they kept us on at all times and ensured we arrived on time for each event. On the wedding day, they guided our entire wedding party and guests through every point of the ceremony and reception to perfection. I know my guests were impressed with how they worked with the resort staff and my husband and I could not be more grateful to them."
Jason & Robyn
"I wanted to plan a surprise 40th birthday for my husband with a group trip to Las Vegas. I had a few ideas, but thought I needed some help. I found Patrick and Glenn through friends who highly recommended them. Not being a wedding, I wasn't sure they would be interested in helping, but boy was I wrong. Patrick and Glenn provided amazing recommendations to make the surprise truly special. They worked with our hotel staff to plan multiple events for our small group in our suite and also found exciting options that spoke to my husband's preferences. All details worked well with each other and made the entire trip stress free and so enjoyable for me and my husband."

"Having Glenn and Patrick for our wedding was invaluable! They possess great communication skills, professionalism, and organization. Glenn was such a calming presence throughout planning and especially on our wedding day. They worked with all of the vendors leading up to and the day of our wedding, so that it was one less thing for us to worry about. The set up was absolutely gorgeous- Glenn made sure every idea we had came to life. He made sure we had every little thing we needed the day of without being intrusive. I can honestly say our wedding day was completely flawless and exactly what we imagined, all thanks to Glenn and Patrick. Best decision we made!"
"Patrick is an incredible partner to have on your team when planning a wedding and he is there every step of the way to guide, provide advice, work with vendors, and even offer encouragement through the stressful times of planning that are more personal than professional issues. We felt like we were in capable and caring hands throughout the process, and seeing Patrick there as I was about to walk down the aisle with a big smile on his face was something I'll always remember."
-Lindsay, Bride
"The service provided by Patrick was phenomenal. I had very little knowledge of what went into planning a wedding when I started. I had many specific questions throughout the entire process. Patrick responded promptly to every email I sent and gave great advice that made the whole process much easier! The day of went of without a hitch! Patrick was very accommodating and attentive throughout the entire event Friends and Family are still raving about how beautiful our wedding was and how well organized it was! A few even said it was the best wedding they've ever been too."
-Katherine, Bride
"Patrick Butler and the staff always went above and beyond. My father is in a wheelchair and we had a few special requests to make the wedding day go as smoothly for him as possible; Patrick was accommodating and utterly professional at every turn. He was extremely responsive to every email and query anyone involved with our wedding sent."
-Kate, Bride
"As MOB I just wanted to say how grateful I am to Patrick for all his help and support during the wedding planning process. Residing in another state, and unable to personally oversee every detail, I really appreciated his timely responses to my emails. He always had an answer and/or a solution for all and no question or request was too simple or small to warrant his attention."
-Diane, Mother of the Bride
"My fiance and I cannot possibly thank Patrick Butler enough for giving us a perfect day in spite of a 1,000-year storm hitting the area! We were so upset when we realized we were going to have rain for our rehearsal dinner and wedding day, but Patrick and his team went above and beyond to be flexible with us and delivered incredible customer service. For every component of our wedding compromised by the rain, Patrick had a solution and accommodated us far beyond what we had ever imagined."
-Kimberly, Bride
"Patrick and his staff were so helpful, from the first day we toured the venue to the day after my daughter's wedding when we picked up some personal items. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful the wedding was."
-Milissa, Mother of the Bride

"As a photographer who has made a career documenting weddings and events throughout the U.S. and abroad, I am thrilled to work with an event planner that is organized, attentive, and at the same time, allows a couple to enjoy their day without being too obtrusive. In my opinion, this is the number one characteristic a couple should look for on the day of their wedding. Sophisticated clients will find themselves attracted to Patrick and Glenn's subtle and attentive demeanor.
We had the pleasure of being selected to document their own wedding in Charlottesville, Virginia and were immediately attracted to their sense of style and their own personal attention to detail.
We sincerely look forward to weddings where Patrick and Glenn are behind the scenes. My wife and I will always consider their friendship a treasure."
