Event’s With Jules 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Hollister, CA

Jules has an affinity for nostalgia, Design and a good party. with a background in art and design, she loves lots of color and loves a design challenge. She’s an instinctive connector who loves to bring people together in and out of her professional life, and that led her to event planning. When she’s not planning an epic event you can find her on an Adventure with her husband and daughter or at an estate sale in the Bay Area. she loves hunting for treasures, jumping into water and is a dancing queen

We had an intimate wedding of only 34 people and figured a coordinator wasn't necessary. That is until our venue-provided coordinator left the company and we realized just how much stuff we'd be juggling the day of the wedding if we didn't have someone on our side helping us out. That's exactly what Jules was for us. We hired her as our month-of/day-of coordinator. Leading up the wedding, she gave us a thorough questionnaire that helped us figure out a lot of details we hadn't even thought of. She was quick to respond to all email and questions. Then the day of the wedding came around and I can say I felt fully at ease knowing Jules was there to work her magic in the background. At the end of the night, she packed up all of our decor and personal items from the venue and loaded it up in our car which was a logistical detail we were stressing about until we hired Jules. She was even kind enough to drop the keys off at our hotel. I can't recommend her enough to future couples in the Monterey, Santa Cruz, or surrounding area!

Working with Ivory Noir was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication style was incredibly responsive, respectful, and knowledgeable throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of their work and overall value was truly professional, open-minded, and reliable. Ivory Noir guided me through this whole wedding journey with compassion and enthusiasm, listening intently to my vision and executing it flawlessly.

Ivory Noir was a gem of a person towards us, our family, guests, and all the vendors.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Love & Laughter Weddings for our destination wedding was hands down the best decision we made during the entire planning process! They were the first vendor we hired as soon as we got engaged because we knew it was going to be an insane undertaking with our busy schedules and planning from afar. Evelyn and the team made it feel so easy and genuinely enjoyable. They helped us organize everything from the rehearsal dinner & welcome event the night before to the ceremony, reception, after party and farewell brunch, and always guided us through the smaller details that made the weekend feel cohesive for our guests who traveled in. I always felt like they were one step ahead of anything that could come up, which gave me so much peace of mind throughout the process. What I appreciated most was how supportive, kind, and calm they were. Whenever I had questions or started to feel overwhelmed, they responded quickly and always had solutions ready. It never felt transactional, it really felt like we had a really experienced team of friends in our corner. When the wedding weekend arrived, everything flowed beautifully. Our guests kept telling us how smoothly everything ran and how much they enjoyed the entire experience. The best part for me was being able to stay present and enjoy the moments with my people instead of worrying about any type of logistics. If you’re planning a destination wedding or a multi-day celebration, I truly can’t recommend Evelyn and Love & Laughter Weddings enough. The ladies truly made the entire experience feel seamless and so memorable. I’m eternally grateful for their care and expertise during such an exciting season of life.

Relic Events is an exceptional wedding planning company. Their communication style is prompt and personal, and they excel at clearly exchanging ideas and information. Lindsey, the lead planner/owner, has an eye for design and is incredibly supportive of both her couples and vendors. She remains calm and collected with a genuine smile. A venue was VERY late in unlocking the property and she quickly found a solution to ensure the wedding went off without a hitch. Lindsey's hands-on approach and dedication to making each couple her top priority is truly admirable. She goes above and beyond to provide amazing support throughout the planning process.

Event By Dawn

  • Serves Hollister, CA

At Event by Dawn, I’ve spent over 10 years helping couples bring their wedding dreams to life. I’m here to guide you through the planning process, making it as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I love working closely with you to create a day that reflects your unique vision, and I’m happy to tailor my packages to fit your budget and needs. From start to finish, I’ll ensure your wedding day is seamless, personal, and unforgettable.

Dawn was so incredibly wonderful for our 10-23-2025 wedding at Waterfall Lodge! We booked her a year and a half in advance and from the moment we booked with her, she was available and responsive. She worked with our schedules and took some of the wedding planning stress off of us. She even helped with recommendations on ways to save some money and utilize all vendors to our full potential. That’s just the planning part of it. Let’s get to the wedding day. From the very start of the rehearsal to the very end of the wedding day, Dawn was incredible. We had a crazy amount of extra people show up to the rehearsal itself who were not needed, but she guided everyone on where they needed to be despite all the extra commotion of extra family members wanting to be involved. The night before the wedding I went through all of my decorations and things that I had spent a lot of time crafting and creating with her and I just kind of spouted everything out all at once. Was I a little worried that she was just committing it all to memory and that my vision might not come to life? Yep. Should I have been worried? Not at all. She executed the vision I had with every little detail included to a tee. Seriously, she kept everything going smoothly. It all looked better than I had pictured it and I was in awe of her ability to keep things running so smoothly with so many different vendors. If there were things that went wrong, I have no idea because she not once gave me an inkling of any stress or anything. We even had a guest comment on how seamlessly she worked into the event. My favorite part of the day with Dawn comes to when we finally made it into dinner. We had ordered Chilis chips and salsa for cocktail hour as that’s where we met. At one point, Dawn came over with one whole bowl of chips and salsa (and sour cream because that’s my favorite) and plopped it onto our sweethearts table. It’s just all the small details that she took care of. It was one of my favorite parts of the day because it was so us. She was absolutely crucial in the best day of our lives and I cannot recommend her more. Thanks again for everything Dawn!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re looking for a wedding planner - your search is over. Hiring Paige was one of the best decisions of our entire wedding, and I promise you’ll be impressed by her work too. We hired Paige about a year and a half before our wedding date, and we had absolutely no idea where to start. Throughout the entire process, Paige was patient with our questions, enthusiastic to help us achieve our goals and our outlandish ideas (whilst also helping us keep realistic on what was possible) and always went the extra mile to ensure the process was as smooth as possible for us. Paige managed all of the vendor communications for us, which was a massive help whilst we juggled our full-time jobs and other commitments. Reflecting on the experience now, there is no way we could have found our vendors (who were absolutely phenomenal and largely sourced and recommended by Paige’s expertise) and managed the communication with them half as well as she did for us. She kept the entire wedding planning progressing, helped us work through difficult challenges as they arose, and became our number one confidant and trusted friend throughout the process. On the wedding day itself, Paige was incredible. She was like a blur being everywhere at once, making sure guests, vendors and ourselves were properly cared for throughout the day (she brought us food and drinks, learned how to weave our table decorations (literally because I saw it on Pinterest), fluffed my train… she literally did it all!!). There was absolutely nothing we had to worry about or “sort” on the day as her team had everything completely in hand. She was incredibly professional and continued to go above and beyond for us, and we never once saw her without a beaming smile. It’s clear that Paige loves her job, and she invests every ounce of passion into ensuring her clients weddings are world class. Paige is the most down-to-earth, bubbly and supportive wedding planners we could have ever have hoped for. I am SO grateful for all of the wisdom, time and passion and patience she shared with us. I’m sure there’s hundreds of more testimonies just like ours, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. If we ever planned our wedding again, she would be a non-negotiable part of our day.

How to tell you about me in a short paragraph? Ok, here we go - born & raised in Australia, recently American. Currently Aus-Merican. Wife to Spencer (2016), Mum/Mom to Reed (2020), and Milo (2023).  Big fan of a latte in the morning and a French75 on special occasions. An avid listener of audiobooks, podcasts, Taylor Swift, my 'Theatre Mix' playlist on Spotify, and early 2000's pop and, occasionally, 2010's emo. A repeat watcher of Bridgerton, New Girl, The Good Place, The Righteous Gemstones, VEEP, & Ted Lasso.

Awarded Best of Zola
Claire played such a big role in our perfect wedding day. We planned a simple DIY wedding with minimal decor. She was so helpful from our first consultation call. There were things we didn't know to consider or how to find, and she was so willing to offer recommendations and suggestions. Closer to the wedding, she managed our vendor communications and big day timeline. She is honest, organized, innovative, and so thorough. One of the letters on our Mr & Mrs sign broke and she glued a cute tiny bow over the letter with eyelash glue! We appreciated Claire so much. On top of managing our timeline, wedding party, family, hired staff, last minute changes, and very drunk people, she truly prioritized what we (the bride and groom) valued. Also, she protected our peace during the whole day and kept us safe throughout the night. We could not have done our wedding without Claire and truly recommend her to everyone!

Andrina and her team at Confetti and Cocktails are the greatest wedding planners ever ever ever. We wanted an intimate wedding and I was worried that a planner would not be as invested as they would for a larger wedding - that could not have father from the truth. From the initial call, all the way through the wedding day and beyond, she has been our designer, therapist, and dream maker. Her professionalism, quick response times to my million questions, and advice on all things wedding related were so helpful during the planning process. She knows the best venues and has great relationships with vendors near and far. The design creation was so fun. She sent a personalized mood board of things we had discussed on the phone and I got to go through and choose the ideas that spoke to me. Then we got to meet at the showroom and put all the pieces together. The day of, Andrina came prepared with EVERYTHING you could possibly ever need. She managed all the vendors and helped everyone stick to the timeline. All I had to do the day of was enjoy getting married. Everything went so smoothly and the day was exactly what we had hoped and planned for. I literally cannot put into words just how wonderful of a person Andrina is and how talented she is. You can tell it is not just her job, but also her passion. If you are looking for a planner, I recommend her a million times over.

Kate Ford Events 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $9,995
  • Serves Hollister, CA

Kate Ford Events (formerly Pocketful Of Plans) is a full service wedding and event planning company based in Monterey and Carmel California. We plan events in and around Carmel, Carmel Valley, Pebble Beach, Big Sur, and Monterey. We focus on your priorities and vision for the day or weekend to ensure your guests have a magical and immersive experience.

From our very first interview with Kate, we knew she was the one. She came to the table with an incredible balance of confidence, deep experience, and a completely down-to-earth demeanor. Our initial impression was that she possessed a "Type A" personality in the absolute best way possible—highly structured, incredibly organized, and fiercely detailed. We walked away from that first conversation knowing our wedding was in the best possible hands. The Planning Process: Kate’s organization is elite. She maps out a clear, macro-level timeline so you always know what’s coming next, scheduling deep-dive meetings that perfectly correspond to each phase of the process. Her communication is seamless; she was accessible whenever we needed her, and on the rare occasion she wasn’t, she managed expectations upfront about when she’d get back to us. What we appreciated most was her curated approach. She didn’t rely on cookie-cutter themes from past weddings; instead, she used targeted questionnaires to truly understand our specific vision and brought it to life as a unique, personalized experience. Her vendor network is massive, and she provided exceptional, tailored options for everything—photography, videography, florals, catering, stationery, and bespoke branded details. Kate never simply said "no" to an idea. If there was a logistical or timing constraint, she immediately pivoted to creative alternatives that achieved the same look and feel. She spent over eight hours with us on a single weekend grinding through our food tasting, venue layout, furniture selection, and floral details without missing a beat. Throughout a process that can easily become overwhelming, Kate’s patience was unmatched. She was an absolute advocate for us, always had our back when negotiating with venues and vendors, and made the entire months-long process feel completely stress-free and adaptive to our demanding daily schedules. The Execution & Hospitality: On the wedding day, Kate and her team executed a complex, highly coordinated itinerary flawlessly. Her team operated like a finely tuned orchestra—everyone knew their exact role and maintained a highly professional, cohesive presence. She had dedicated assistants tracking the bride and groom simultaneously, meaning she had her finger on the pulse of the entire event from sunrise to midnight. Kate checked in with us constantly, ensuring we were updated and completely taken care of. Beyond looking after us, her level of hospitality was incredible. She treated every guest like a VIP, but paid exceptional, personalized attention to our families to ensure all of their specific accommodations were perfectly handled. She also seamlessly managed the logistics for our hotel welcome bags and custom wedding swag. It felt like Kate was viewing the entire day through our eyes, bringing our exact vision to life in real time. Everything we imagined our wedding would be was that and so much more. If you want a flawless, high-end execution, Kate is unmatched.

oso events began with our own wedding, and as a husband-and-wife team, we know firsthand how important it is to have a day that feels effortless, personal, and entirely yours. We’ve been in your shoes, and that’s why we approach planning with both expertise and empathy.​ But we don’t do it alone. Behind every wedding is team oso—a group of experienced planners who share our passion for seamless events and thoughtful execution. We bring a calm presence, deep expertise, and an obsession with making sure things run smoothly—so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with the Oso team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! We actually hired them about 2 years in advance, so we got to work with them for a super long time! One of the biggest reasons that we wanted to hire Oso specifically was because of their decor inventory, which was 100% available to use at no additional cost with their full wedding planning package. Weddings can be extremely wasteful in terms of decor, so it was nice to be able to consciously be a bit more sustainable! We honestly ended up hiring Oso for so many other services as well — Michelle did an amazing job with our signage, they also have a great photobooth package, and Michelle’s sister owns Bobaholics so we were able to get a discounted rate for a boba bar! It really felt like a one-stop shop :) Michelle, Gen, Raymundo, and Gennie were all so helpful in coordinating with vendors and giving us wedding advice/guidance - working with them also gave us confidence that we weren’t missing any important steps or details of wedding planning. They were also available by text/email anytime, and they always responded extremely quickly, which I so appreciated! Talking to them felt more like talking to friends who were super passionate about wedding planning! On the actual day of the wedding, my husband and I felt so stress-free because of Oso - they seamlessly guided everyone to stay on schedule, had walkie talkies to communicate with each other, and constantly asked us if we needed any food/water/etc. They took care of passing out our vendor tips, and set up all of our decor with time to spare! When people ask us for wedding planning advice, we always say that hiring a planner was the best decision we made - specifically Oso Events! They are truly the best at what they do :) We could not be more grateful to them!

I’ve always been inspired by the strong, ambitious women in my life who built successful small businesses in the hospitality industry — from restaurant owners and bakers to caterers and florists. Growing up surrounded by their entrepreneurial spirit, I was motivated to follow my own path and create something meaningful in the world of events. ​ After spending two years working as a Wedding Coordinator at the Westin, the pandemic hit and forced a pause on hotel weddings. That unexpected turn of events only fueled my determination to turn my passion into a full-time business. And so, Kaci Danae Events was born.

Her calm, graceful presence made even the most complex logistics feel effortless, and she handled every challenge with poise and a positive attitude. She communicated clearly and proactively with all vendors, ensuring everyone was on the same page and that the event ran seamlessly from start to finish. Beyond her exceptional organizational skills, Kaci brought a warm, reassuring energy that put both the couple and the entire vendor team at ease. She anticipated needs before they arose, offered creative solutions, and always went the extra mile to make sure every aspect of the day was perfect. It’s rare to encounter someone so dedicated, resourceful, and genuinely passionate about their work. Any couple would be lucky to have her guiding them through their wedding journey, and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I’m not even sure where to begin to describe how amazing Events by McKenna is at what they do!! McKenna is the most kind, helpful, and enthusiastic person to assist you during such an important time in your life. She made sure everything went perfectly on our wedding day and every day leading up to it! When we first started our wedding planning journey, we only knew where we wanted to have it, and due to the venue location not regularly being used for weddings, we needed to outsource vendors for everything. That's where McKenna came in and helped us out by hand-picking every vendor that she knew would provide the exact things we were looking for. From catering, florals, furniture rentals, DJ, and all the little details, she knew who would be perfect for the job and she was right about every single one! Every time we had a question or a crazy idea, she had an answer right away and she would do everything she could to make it happen. One thing that we were really hoping for was getting a disco ball above our dance floor, but since we were outdoors, it wasn’t looking promising. McKenna was the one who made sure that we got our disco ball, and it was absolutely perfect! That’s just one example of the many ways McKenna ensured our dream wedding would become a reality. On the day of, McKenna and her team were so efficient and handled everything so that my husband and I could relax and focus on ourselves. We got to our venue and everything was already done and ready to start the day! McKenna was amazing at time management throughout the day, and she was so helpful to not only us, but our families, wedding party and guests as well. Everything went perfectly on schedule and all the crazy ideas that we had came to life with no issues! It was truly the best day of our lives and it wouldn’t have been possible without McKenna’s help! I could write so much more on how incredible Events by McKenna is, but to sum it all up, they are the best choice for your wedding planning and coordinating needs and you will not regret choosing them for your big day!!

After 3 years of long distance relationship, I finally married the love of my life. A little bit about The Perfect Pair Wedding... it is a San Diego based Wedding planning company, we plan & design weddings all over Southern California to bring to life our Perfect Pair's dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we first connected with Clemence, we were feeling overwhelmed and anxious. With our wedding less than six months away and having recently parted ways with our original planner, we were in urgent need of someone who could bring our dream wedding to life. Clemence stepped in with infectious enthusiasm, and from the outset, it was clear she genuinely cared about realizing the vision we held for our special day. An early experience that solidified our confidence in Clemence, and one we will always cherish, was our engagement photoshoot. Just a week after our initial meeting, Clemence learned of our upcoming anniversary trip to the Loire Valley, where we planned to stay at a Chateau and have our engagement photos taken. The photographer we had initially found was unresponsive, creating a stressful situation. Clemence immediately took charge, connecting us with an amazing Parisian photographer she had collaborated with previously, Lea Everin. Within a couple of days, she had arranged a two-hour photoshoot for us at the Chateau. This swift action and dedication left us speechless and demonstrated a level of commitment that truly made the entire experience unforgettable. Clemence excelled in understanding and aligning with our expectations, particularly regarding organization. She effectively utilized a shared spreadsheet to keep us synchronized on tasks and, crucially, the budget. Her proficiency with Canva was also a great asset, allowing her to create clear visual representations for elements like table settings and decor, which was immensely helpful. During our meetings, Clemence had a remarkable ability to make us feel as though our wedding was her sole focus. She also introduced us to an outstanding team of vendors, including the talented photographer Renata Amazonas and Katlyn Jernigan from Toast Catering, all of whom contributed significantly to our day. What truly set Clemence apart was her receptiveness to feedback and her proactive approach. We had several productive meetings at the venue, which fostered a sense of calm and shared understanding, ensuring our wedding would be everything we envisioned. She also skillfully managed the planning process itself, making it feel like a unique and enjoyable experience in its own right. We'll never forget how she coordinated with cake vendors; after we expressed our desire for a fun and memorable tasting, she arranged a delightful experience at the venue with Connor’s Cakes, complete with delicious samples and champagne. Given the exceptional service leading up to the wedding, it's hard to imagine Clemence could have surpassed our expectations on the actual day – yet she did. Our wedding day proceeded flawlessly. Despite concerns about potential rain leading into the weekend, Clemence had worked diligently with us to prepare for all scenarios. Thankfully, the weather was beautiful, and we had the most perfect wedding we could have ever asked for. Throughout the entire day, we were completely free of worry, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in and savor every precious moment. Thank you, Clemence, for truly making our entire wedding journey and the day itself absolutely perfect. We will cherish these memories forever.

We worked with Yoko from Two Perfect Events, and her team was on top of it every step of the way. Yoko made sure to get to know us and took every step possible over the year we worked together to make sure that we were prepared for the big day. She was in touch with our vendors, and our families and made sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible. We never felt behind schedule or rushed because Yoko and team were so organized and on top of it. They really took care of us throughout the entire process. Something we appreciate is that they anticipated we'd need breaks during the day and scheduled those for us as well, they also made sure we were fed and hydrated throughout! Our families could not stop talking about how efficiently the entire day was managed. 11/10 want to plan another wedding just to hire them again.

I've been navigating the WI wedding industry since starting Redwoods in 2023. Before that, my love for events came from working at a winery in Napa, California. I'm here to help you with the chaotic parts of planning; navigating your budget, choosing the right vendors, staying on track with planning progress, and of course, managing the entire event day of (and everything in between). When I'm not in office, you can find me walking my dogs, reading a book, finding a fun craft class or restaurant to visit with my husband Alex (yes we have the same name) or traveling.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alex and Katie at Redwood were incredible for day-of-coordination. They made planning less stressful by answering our questions, providing useful resources, and giving great feedback on timeline. On the day-of, Katie managed set up/clean up, kept us on track, and gave us a general sense of peace. I’m usually a little Type A, but as a bride I felt I could fully chill and enjoy the day with Katie there - we were in good hands. She worked seamlessly with our vendors, venue, and officiant (a friend who officiated for the first time) and checked the little details. We loved her so much, we recommended her to some friends and we’ll see her in a month at their wedding!

Zuzu Collective is a bespoke wedding planning studio specializing in immersive, story-driven weddings in San Diego and throughout California and worldwide. We start with your story — your taste, your vision, what you want people to feel — and build a world from there.

I hired Zoe for day of coordination but she was instrumental to an amazing wedding day. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, I would highly recommend!! On a day when you give your vendors complete trust, she made me feel super assured that everything would go smoothly and she would create a beautiful setting. She was such a calming presence on the day. I had help from my family in the wedding planning process but for day of coordination she helped in creating the timeline, ensuring it went smoothly, decor set up and breakdown, and much more. She’s involved heavily about a month before the wedding but she was very proactive in her duties even before then. On the wedding day when we strayed away from the timeline she was there coordinate with vendors and guests to make the transition so seamless our guests didn’t even notice. She had set up all of the decor and even went above and beyond to create a romantic setting. Her creative touch truly added a little magic. As a perfectionist sometimes she exceeded my expectations! She made everyone feel welcomed and relaxed on the day. She even picked up our florals the morning of to alleviate some of my stress, I’m so glad I went with Zoe and know anyone who works with her will leave with an amazing experience.

I could not recommend Glennie and her team more! They worked behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly during our wedding and leading up to the event! From creating group chats with our entourage for open communication to creating a minute by minute schedule of the event. She was PERFECT!

My wife and I were able to find the most perfect venue to celebrate our special day at Black Oak Mountain vineyards. This is where we were introduced to Sandra and we couldn’t have hit more of a home run with her as our wedding planner. We didn’t fully understand what it took to plan a wedding and I can confidently say we would’ve been completely lost without Sandra. She is detail oriented, creative, proactive, and was able to give us our dream wedding through a collaborative year long planning. Sandra was always available and alleviated all of the stress that goes into planing a wedding. My wife and I had bits and pieces of a vision we had for our big day which Sandra was able to bring to life. Sandra coordinated with our vendors, created a schedule, and made our big day stress free. We loved that we were able to enjoy the day and spend time with our guests because of how well planned and timely everything was. Our guests raved about the little details, food, and amazing night of partying. Truly a night that we will never forget and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without Sandra and her team. Pairing the most perfect venue with the most amazing planner made for a dream wedding. We would highly recommend utilizing LWTD for your big day. Thank you Sandra, we will never forget how truly amazing our day was thanks to you!

From the moment we first met with AnnaMarie and the team at AR Weddings N Events, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was attentive, positive, and enthusiastic throughout the entire planning process. The attention-to-detail, big picture perspective, and warm approach they brought to executing our vision was truly impressive. AnnaMarie executed our vision for the table settings and flowers perfectly while I was away getting ready, and they were around monitoring the entire wedding to make sure it was perfect and we didn't hear of any problems.

I am a lifetime Central Coast resident, born and raised in Templeton. I have spent most of my career in the hospitality industry. It wasn't until I started a job in catering management that I realized I had a passion for weddings. I continued doing catering management for 2 years, and then I started assisting all of my favorite wedding planners for 2 years. Most recently I landed a job in Venue Management and that is when I knew I wanted my own wedding planning business. In my free time I love to go hiking, lift weights and spend time with my family, including our 4 rescue pups. I look forward to meeting you!

She is incredibly personable, so easy to work with, and always quick to respond to any questions. She's organized, attentive, and absolutely on top of her game from start to finish. So seriously, stop your search and hire her. You can thank me later! Your wedding is in the best hands with Sara! -Burlap & Oak Wedding Photography

Welcome and congratulations on your engagement! You’re here because you already have a good handle on the planning process and just need a calm, organized and fun person to ensure everything comes together seamlessly. That’s me! Hi, I’m Patricia. As a former Executive Assistant it was easy to transition to becoming a Wedding Coordinator. I traded managing CEOs and their schedules for managing couples and theirs! I’ve been in the wedding industry since 2006, starting with designing invitations and full planning to where I am now.

Honestly. Patricia was fabulous. As the Mother of the Bride, I watched her handle vendors, last minute surprises, and all of our guests with Grace and Professionalism. I never experienced any anxiety and knew that she had absolutely everything under control. My husband and I arrived before anyone else and watched as she seamlessly made sure that everything was done as planned. Her presence was barely noticeable except when needed and then she would almost magically appear anticipating the need. I am so impressed with her skills and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to my closest friends and family.
