(Full disclaimer: This was before Jill’s prices went up.) I originally was looking for a day-of-coordinator for my wedding because my budget at the time was under 1k for one, but Jill gave me a great deal at the time to be a full on wedding planner as she was just starting her business. And I’m glad I went with that option because I didn’t realize how much goes into the type of wedding I wanted. If you’re having a wedding that has over 110 guests and has a lot of moving parts- you need to hire a wedding planner (with an assistant ideally). In hindsight, I think I would have paid a little extra for an assistant as well because there were some details in the reception that were overlooked-through no one’s fault- just a lot was going on that day. Thankfully, none of the guests noticed these missing details (Like the customized dessert bags that were never used, or candy that were still in boxes, the heaters not being put up on time -This was a November wedding, and the wedding cake missing its decorative flowers). But this was a learning experience, and overall, I’m thankful to have had Jill by my side, because I think things would have been much worse if I didn’t have her help. At one point, a second mariachi band showed up announced, but that was taken care of lol. I’m not sure what other wedding planners do, but I was happy that Jill allowed me the freedom to come up with the vision and design for my wedding, while she took care of the logistics and planning- like arranging video call meetups w/ the vendors and venue which helped a lot. It also helped that her schedule was flexible despite some personal family emergencies that happened during the process. I’m sure once her business grows more she will be able to get the extra help needed to plan much bigger, more fantastical weddings! Overall, I would recommend Jill as a wedding planner: She’s very down-to-earth, punctual (thank you for getting to the courthouse on time while I was running late) , professional, compassionate- took well to my notes, and concerns, and jumped to the occasion. Thanks again, Jill!

Desiree from Serenity Weddings made our entire wedding experience feel effortless and truly enjoyable. From our very first call, she made us feel comfortable and supported. Her communication was quick, clear, and reassuring. I could tell right away that she genuinely cared about making our day everything we hoped for. She was incredibly organized and kept all of our vendors perfectly in sync, making sure every detail was handled and nothing fell through the cracks. Thanks to her, the entire planning process felt smooth and stress-free. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond, driving all the way from Los Angeles to Winters just to be there for us. She stayed calm, kept us calm, and somehow thought of every little thing (including having cough drops in her pocket right when I needed them!). We’re endlessly grateful for her dedication, kindness, and professionalism. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and we truly couldn’t have done it without Desiree and Serenity Weddings.

We believe that beautiful weddings are built on a foundation of absolute trust and transparency. To give our couples complete peace of mind, we utilize an upfront, all-inclusive pricing structure. Alongside our curated custom packages, our baseline includes a Premium Execution Fee (our comprehensive "Puff Fee"). What does this mean for you? It means we don't surprise you with hidden upcharges for things that should be standard. This flat fee covers the heavy lifting behind the scenes—unlimited vendor communication hours, meticulous logistics scouting, emergency backup plans, and the full physical setup and teardown

We hired Popfizz Event Planners to handle our wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice. From our first meeting, the team was responsive and easy to work with—they answered our questions quickly and made sure we felt heard throughout the entire planning process. Their attention to detail was clear in every aspect of our wedding day, from the florals to the timeline to the overall flow of events. What impressed us most was how they managed to create something truly special while staying within our budget. Our guests are still talking about how seamless everything felt, and we credit that to Popfizz's professionalism and dedication. We'd absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for a planner who actually listens and delivers.

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!!

Hi! Thanks so much for your interest in working together. I’m Jackie, a Wedding & Event Planner based in Southern California (and beyond, always) I’ve been in the event world for what feels like my entire life. I spent a decade as a professional DJ, years producing corporate events, owned a catering business for a while, and even stepped into private cheffing during COVID. The common thread through it all? I genuinely love throwing a great party.

Awarded Best of Zola
This review is overdue! Jackie went above and beyond as our day-of-coordinator. We threw a backyard wedding in Oct 2025 and did the majority of the planning ourselves, but needed someone to guide us in the final stretch and to be the logistics point-person for day-of. She was that and way more. She met with us in person and via zoom multiple times in the months leading up to the wedding, and was available by text and email when we needed some extra guidance. She always had a fantastic attitude, great advice for our planning, and was well-organized. On the day-of, she was critical to the smooth operation of our wedding, doing everything from managing our entire timeline and all our vendors, to receiving our cake that was delivered during cocktail hour, to releasing our guests to the buffet in a very specific order I wanted (vegetarians first, so they got the limited veg meals!). I love this shot of her in our photo booth! Would definitely recommend Jackie for day-of coordinating, although with the level of engagement and organization she has, I'm sure her full planning services are excellent too.

Planning a destination wedding in Cairo, Egypt came with its fair share of complexities. We had guests traveling from all over the world and were trying to blend three cultures - Lebanese, Egyptian, and American. In Egypt, most wedding planners focus only on décor and receptions, so I found myself struggling with the schedule and flow of logistics beyond that. There were so many moving parts - the ceremony, the bridal party, the reception - and I didn’t have a planner or a day-of coordinator to help me execute the day smoothly. Alex stepped in and became my anchor. She gathered every detail and built an hour-by-hour plan that carried us through the day, from getting ready to the end of the night. That included the procession of the church ceremony, the musical cues, the reception entrance order, the dj song list order, etc. She helped me create breakout schedules to give to each vendor so they all knew what part of the day mattered for them to take part in. Alex brought so much understanding and cultural awareness to our wedding. She respected the way that weddings are done in Egypt, Lebanon, and America, and helped me blend certain moments from each tradition into our wedding. Every special moment flowed. I truly couldn’t imagine how the day would have went without her. She gave me peace of mind, comfort, and support that made me feel extremely take care of on the most important day of my life.

I was almost not going to choose Ingrid as a wedding coordinator and that would have been one of my biggest regrets as a bride for my wedding. I actually had already put a small deposit down for another wedding coordinator, but once I met Ingrid, she stole my heart. She was my calm to my storm, my ying to my yang, my Robin to my Batman…etc Ingrid is not only an amazing wedding coordinator, but she is also an amazing wedding officiant. She took our love story and crazy ceremony ideas (such as taking a shot with us along with our guests before we sealed the deal or taping our ring box underneath one of the chairs for a surprise ring bearer) and created the ceremony of our dreams. To hear from multiple guests that it was the best ceremony they attended was the best compliment we could receive because the ceremony is the most important part of a wedding. It was my favorite part of my wedding. Then she can amazingly switch gears from officiant to wedding coordinator and rock that too. She can do it all (literally). I always have other couples tell us that their wedding day goes by very fast and they didn’t really get to enjoy all the little things. However, my husband and I felt like our special day did not go by so fast and we most definitely got to enjoy the little things mainly because Ingrid took care of everything behind the scenes that no one sees. She created an amazing timeline for us, took charge of our vendors, made sure we were right on schedule with everything, was super communicative along the way… the list goes on and on. She is everything you would want in a wedding coordinator. I am very sad I won’t get to work with her anymore unless I get married again lol, but I would recommend her to anyone I know and hopefully get to see her in action again.

Hiring Tavi was easily the best thing we could have done for ourselves when we started wedding planning. We really had no idea what we were doing, I was super anxious about everything, and Tavi guided us through it all with grace, expertise, and humor. She helped us figure out what we actually wanted our wedding to look like (a rainbow fruit and vegetable disco party), what was important to us, our budget, our vendors, and most importantly, she kept me from losing my mind (which, let's be honest, is probably the biggest reason you hire a wedding planner, right?). She put together an amazing vendor team that brought our vision to life even more than we could have hoped for. After the wedding, we got so many compliments about how great it was, and how it was the best wedding they'd been to, no exaggeration. You can see it in our photos--everyone had a blast, and we loved every second of it. Our parents were so impressed by how Tavi and her assistant handled everything on the day of--and she'd also had a wedding the day before, so that's saying something. She was always on her A-game, always responsive, and we would hire her again in a heartbeat. And you should hire her too!

I met Christina at a Bridal Expo and was amazed with the offered Day Of Coordination package. I was able to easily communicate my priorities on the special day and even share my wedding pet peeves to avoid. Christina was excellent at brainstorming ideas and suggested plenty of ways to approach a situation. When we worked on building the timeline together, she was very thorough and insightful. I sent her so many timeline revisions (as timing means EVERYTHING and it definitely matters), but Christina took them and made it look seamless. On the wedding day, Christina and her team (thank you Heather and Leanna!) made sure we were happy and stress-free. Our morning started with Heather running the errands of the busy morning and was the go-to person for myself and the wedding entourage. Heather was also able to help us create a floral bouquet we used for our ceremony offering. It turned out so beautiful! She did a terrific job. I was always reminded to take a bite of food and to stay hydrated while we were getting ready. Christina helped us execute the ribbon wand exit after our church ceremony. It turned out to be one of the highlights of the day. Everyone had so much fun doing it. As for the reception, Ingobo was able to help set the table decorations- centerpieces, candles, name cards, order of guests, etc. Leanna was at our side making sure we were well-fed and no one pulled us away from the sweetheart table. She was able to give us reminders of the timeline and was very sweet. Overall, Christina and her team orchestrated our wedding day perfectly. We received many compliments from our guests stating they noticed how smooth the day went. Ingobo's Day of Coordination services made a huge impact on how we were able to enjoy our special day.

My name is Samantha Grande. My business is called Grande Events. I have always had a passion for helping couples making their wedding dreams/visions come true on their big day. I have an eye for detail and I am a very hard worker. I understand all the wedding stress and I am here for you.

We were thrilled with Grande Events as our wedding planner. Their communication throughout the entire planning process was thorough, concise, courteous, and always prompt. They responded to emails within 24 hours and made sure all our vendors were looped in on important details. The quality of their work was fantastic - every document, timeline, layout, etc. was neat, detailed, and beautiful. On our big day, they went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, coordinating seamlessly with all our vendors and wedding party. The ceremony flowed perfectly in the order we desired thanks to their attention to detail. We truly appreciated their dedication to understanding our vision and bringing it to life. If you're looking for a planner who will listen and turn your dream wedding into a reality, we highly recommend Grande Events.

My wife and I just had a beautiful wedding ceremony and reception and owe a tremendous amount of the outcome to our wedding coordinator Joy. We were attempting to plan a fairly large wedding in a span of less than three months. After getting a venue and recommendations for vendors I set out trying to put this together. After a couple weeks I realized there was just too many things to do, and reached out and hired Joy. From that moment she took control and eased all my worries. She contacted all the vendors, put together the wedding and reception timelines all while keeping us informed and modifying things based on changes we wanted. She was most amazing on the day of the event, my wife is Filipina and a few of her bridesmaids were going on “Philippino Time”, Joy never got flustered she adjusted on the fly, worked seamlessly with our photographer who need “20 more minutes “ for some some additional photos. She adjusted everything and we completed all the things we wanted done before the reception ended. I cannot recommend her services more and can guarantee she will meet all your needs for your event. Thank you Joy!

Our experience with Sabina was nothing short of exceptional.

Her communication skills were top-notch, ensuring that we were always kept in the loop and that no detail was overlooked. Not only were we impressed by Sabina's professionalism, but our wedding guests and vendors also couldn't stop raving about how nice she was.

Jessica is an angel sent down from heaven. Seriously, not even kidding. She saved multiple mishaps at my wedding without breaking a sweat or batting an eye. For example my cake fell the morning of my wedding (a screw up on our bakers end). She found a different baker to send us a fake cake that looked so real none of our guests knew it was fake. She also helped me get a huge stain out of my dress within seconds before having our first dance. Jessica helped ease all of my anxiety and I felt so comfortable around her from the moment I met her. It felt like having a friend around with me all day. Her assistants were also so sweet and absolutely killed it the day of my wedding. They made everything so easy to where I could just relax and enjoy my day. Jessica and team I seriously love you guys and feel so incredibly blessed that I got to have you guys by our side on our big day.

Our wedding day felt absolutely effortless thanks to Sarah. From the very beginning, she was perfectly organized, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making sure our vision came to life exactly the way we imagined it. She puts so much care into what she does, and it truly shows in every detail. She listened to all of our wishes and executed them flawlessly, allowing us to relax and actually feel like guests at our own wedding — something every couple hopes for but rarely gets to experience. She may be small, but she packs a big punch! Her energy, professionalism, and dedication made such a huge impact on our day.

We’re so grateful we chose Courtney and the Enchanted Events team to help plan my son’s wedding. From the moment she stepped in, every detail came together seamlessly, and she gave us the confidence to actually enjoy the celebration. Her idea for a Polaroid scrapbook was a huge hit—guests had so much fun with it, and it’s now a keepsake the newlyweds will cherish forever. Because of Courtney, the entire weekend was smooth, joyful, and everything we hoped it would be.

Natalie is the sweetest, most detail oriented wedding planner I’ve ever met!!! Her and her husband Daniel make such a great team. Along with Lead Production Designer Brendan, Assistant Luke, Production Assistant Caterina, and her whole Production team, they all contributed significantly to my big wedding day! From the moment we started working with Natalie at our first initial call, we felt an instant sigh of relief that we were able to work with someone who understood our vision. Natalie was able to build mood boards and decks of beautiful inspiration photos after describing to her how we wanted our wedding to look and feel. She worked with us as a partial wedding planner, although we truly wished we found her from the start to book her as a full wedding planner! With every decision that needed to be made along the process (whether it was deciding to spend more on an item or cut back on other items) she always made sure to lay out ALL the options, which helped us make an informed decision. Natalie even took a day out of her time to go shopping with me for welcome table decor the week of my wedding to ensure that we had something ready and set up for the big day! We are so impressed with her kindness, patience, and professionalism in the wedding planning industry! I truly recommend her to any couple that is looking for someone who is responsive, extremely detail oriented, and knows how to work within your budget! Our dream wedding was not possible with you!!!!

Working with Michelle has been an absolute pleasure. We selected Michelle because of her long successful track record and also because we have close friends who admitted that Michelle was to be trusted. Selecting a planner can be difficult but thankfully we were blessed with the best one! My wife expects nothing but perfection so the communication between her and Michelle was constant. Everytime my wife had a question or some reassurance; Michelle was there to assist immediately. As a husband, what I appreciated the most was her attention to detail and her calmness. She would always jot down all of our wishes and requests in her notebook in which I respected because there were a lot of asks on our end. Such a professional, responsible, trustworthy person. Thank you Michelle and to the team for allowing my wife and I to enjoy our special day. I would trust your work with my family and friends.
