Norma Knows Best!

Gardenias Wedding and Event Planning was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Norma's communication style was prompt, proactive, and professional, keeping me informed every step of the way. The quality of her work was exceptional - she provided a detailed, informative, and well-organized timeline and notes for the couples' entire wedding day, not just a list of line items. Norma handled all vendor details in one place and made updates to the couples' timeline as needed, ensuring their special day ran smoothly. On wedding day, she had a calm and controlled demeanor behind the scenes, which was invaluable in the often chaotic wedding industry. By the end of the night, the bride and groom had huge smiles on their faces because of her unseen work. As a wedding DJ, I value high quality planning professionals such as Norma, and I highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.

Gardenias Wedding and Event Planning was fantastic to work with for our wedding. Their communication was excellent - Norma, our planner, was very responsive and made sure we were informed every step of the way. The quality of their work was highly professional, and Norma was great at working with our family, especially as a bilingual coordinator. She helped ensure the day ran smoothly and that all of our guests felt welcomed and taken care of. We were thrilled with how our special day turned out, and we owe a lot of that to the hard work and dedication of the Gardenias team. I would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.
