Awarded Best of Zola
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.

KW Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Palo Alto, CA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $500

I’m a Bay Area photographer drawn to honest, unscripted moments. My background in journalism shapes how I approach weddings and events — paying attention to the small details, the quiet interactions, and the in-between moments that tell the real story of a day. I aim to photograph celebrations in a way that feels natural, thoughtful and true to the people in them.

KW Photography was an absolute joy to work with . From our first interaction, Kathryn was kind, welcoming, and easy-going, making us feel comfortable and at ease. Their high-quality, crisp photography captured all the special moments, from the candid shots of us giggling during our engagement session. Kathryn has an incredible eye for detail and a true talent for bringing out the natural beauty in every photo. We are thrilled with the final results and couldn't recommend KW Photography highly enough for any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Audey Shen Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Palo Alto, CA
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $10,500

Hi, I’m Audey, pronounced like Audrey but without the R! Inspired by heart, those closest to us, and always chasing the spirit of adventure, I believe your love story is one-of-a-kind, and the way it’s remembered should be too. My approach blends candid Photojournalism with a Fine Art approach. I aim to capture the moments that you share with your loved ones, all while capturing the beautiful surroundings that will become part of your family's visual legacy. Whether it's an intimate ceremony under the redwoods or a celebration across the world, I would love to document the beauty, joy, and quiet magic of it all.

Audey did a FANTASTIC job with both our engagement photos and our city hall wedding ceremony photos. When I got in contact with her, we chatted about any ideas I had in terms of locations and poses, but she was also incredibly helpful in prompting us to think about what we wanted out of our shoots. She's able to scout locations super quickly once at the destination and is a true pro at being able to get the shot. We took our engagement photos at Lands End and Golden Gate Park on an absolutely freezing day (another normal day in SF haha) and Audey helped us get through the shoot quickly and successfully! She directed us through all of the poses and made us feel super comfortable and relaxed with her. We were even able to squeeze in some last minute unplanned shots that actually turned out so beautiful. For SF city hall, she truly is a miracle worker because nobody had guessed that there were several other couples also milling around the rotunda based on the outstanding shots she was able to take. I had no idea it was her first time shooting SF city hall since she navigated it like a pro! Overall, I truly love Audey's photography style and her professionalism and I'm so grateful she was able to help us capture these memories. If you're looking for someone who can really bring out the best in you through photography, Audey is your gal!

Kaci Danae Events 
Rating: 5.0 (44 reviews)
  • Planner
  • Offers 3 services
  • Serves Palo Alto, CA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kaci was the perfect day-of-coordinator and we highly, highly recommend her. She shepherded us through the month- and day-of calmly and confidently and made the wedding day run smoothly. About a month before, we met with her to discuss our priorities for our wedding, establish a timeline, and make sure we were on top of all the details. She came to this meeting very organized, and prompted us to think about things that weren't even on our radar - as an example, whether we wanted a grand entrance and what song we'd like for that. As we got closer to the wedding day, she took over communicating with our vendors and provided all of them with detailed itineraries and instructions. A few of our vendors told us that Kaci was one of the more organized coordinators they've worked with. She was very responsive if we had questions or wanted clarifications and was always open to more communication. On the day of, she was perfect - we felt totally at ease knowing that all of the vendors knew the plan and that Kaci would tell us where to be and when. She had a calming tone and checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed, and was instantly responsive if we needed anything or wanted to make last-minute changes. We were able to focus entirely on enjoying the party. We are so glad we chose Kaci!!

The Mountain Terrace was the perfect venue for our wedding ceremony. From the beginning, their communication was efficient, helpful, and showed their experience in hosting weddings. The planning process for our morning ceremony was very easy and straightforward, thanks to our coordinator, Caren, who was extremely communicative and a big help on the day. All of the event staff were also amazing and contributed to making our special day beautiful. We could tell how dedicated the staff was to making sure everything went smoothly for us. The location is stunning and the venue is exactly what we had hoped for - our photos turned out amazing and we're so grateful we chose The Mountain Terrace! We struggled to find a venue that would allow us to do just a morning ceremony there since we were having our reception somewhere else. The Mountain Terrace was just what we needed! I would highly recommend this venue.

I didn’t expect to love the pictures of myself as much as I do!! Usually I look awkward in wedding photos but these came out amazing. They somehow knew how to catch me laughing with the bride, hugging her, and dancing like crazy. Every picture makes me smile. The group shots are stunning, like everyone actually looks happy and not fake. The video caught the speeches and I swear I could watch it over and over. My makeup and dress looked so good on camera, better than I thought in real life lol. I also loved how they managed to get so many candid shots without us even noticing. The bride cried when she saw everything, and I totally understood why. I’ll keep these memories forever too, not just her.

Hello! I’m so excited for the chance to work with you. I’m a former teacher who has always had a passion for photography. I started working freelance in 2015 and did a lot of my first jobs in the music industry. I shot Warped Tour a few times and even had one of my promos featured by AP magazine. I quickly realized I loved working with couples the most, and now focus on couple and family portraits and weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
Thalia saved our wedding. We had to change photographers very last minute and were super worried about hiring someone new. Then we found Thalia and from the moment we had our first intro call with her we had a feeling that everything was going to work out. She was so professional, during our first call she was very well organized and clear about what she would need from us. She took her time to make sure we were a great match and to understand our vision. She was personable and kind, speaking with her felt like talking to a friend right away. She was considerate, during all parts of the wedding she made sure to give us time alone together and we never felt rushed. Even still she constantly captured the most breath taking photos. Lastly she was so much fun! Our guests loved her and thought she had the most wonderful energy. She directed us very well. Looking over the pictures I’ve never felt so beautiful. She even brought her own props to go with our theme for the pictures. A vintage camera and tray. Everything she did was so thoughtful. I wish we could have another wedding just to have her photograph it. You will not regret working with Thalia. We feel so incredibly lucky to have gotten the opportunity.

She was incredibly responsive, attentive to every detail, and made the whole process seamless. Her talent for decorating cakes is unparalleled—she not only captured our vision but brought it to life in a way that was even more stunning than we imagined. We chose her unique Russian-style vegan cake, and it was truly a showstopper. It was unlike any other wedding cake we’ve seen, both in flavor and design. The layers were rich and flavorful, and we were blown away by how Natasha managed to make it both vegan and so delicious—every single guest, whether vegan or not, was raving about it! It was the perfect blend of elegance and originality, and it made our wedding day feel even more special. On the day of the wedding, Natasha went above and beyond. She worked so well with our coordinator and the culinary team, ensuring everything went smoothly and the cake was set up exactly as planned. Her professionalism and attention to detail were much appreciated, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about making our celebration perfect.

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.

We had such an amazing experience with our catering team for our wedding! Carla, the owner, was incredibly kind, patient, and so easy to talk to. From day one, she was communicative and very flexible with all the requests I had, which made the entire planning process so much less stressful. One thing we truly appreciated was that they even delivered food to our home during our tastings--it made everything so convenient. The food was already amazing during the tastings, but it was even more incredible on our wedding day. All of our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious everything was! Carla and her team provided exceptional service from start to finish. They were also the only catering team we found who packed up all the leftovers for us, which meant so much since our family stayed at the venue--we got to continue enjoying the food even after the wedding. They also created our wedding cake, which was absolutely beautiful and delicious. We also ordered the raspberry no-bake cheesecake (which I sadly didn't get to try!), but based on how quickly everything disappeared, it was clearly a hit. We only had a few slices of cake left, which says a lot about how much our guests loved everything. We are beyond grateful for Carla and her team for making our wedding day so special. We will definitely be booking them again for future events--highly recommend!

From start to finish, our wedding experience at this venue was absolutely amazing. The staff was so helpful throughout the planning process, always responsive and truly invested in making our vision come to life. Our day of coordinator Jennifer was outstanding! She was literally running around to make sure everything went smoothly. Her energy and attention to detail made the day so much less stressful for me I couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator. The space was clean, beautifully maintained, and they did an amazing job setting up all of my decorations exactly how I imagined. The food was delicious, and we received so many compliments from our guests. We’re so thankful for the entire team who helped make our day unforgettable. Highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful space with a dedicated staff! – Nakiya & Robert Valdez

Fan was a true delight to work with for our wedding. From the initial consultation, owner Fan was incredibly supportive, patient, and understanding as we discussed our vision and budget. She provided her expertise to co-design the perfect floral arrangements that were both aesthetically wonderful and completely reliable in delivering the look we wanted. Fan truly cares about her customers and went above and beyond to assist us with design questions beyond just the flowers.
