We hired Diana as a full-service wedding planner for our wedding at The Meritage Resort in…read moreSeptember 2025. Diana was an AMAZING wedding planner!! I'll break my review up into two components (plannings vs. day of), but our day could not have been more perfect or run more smoothly thanks to her and her team. Planning: From the start, we were impressed by Diana's organization and pragmatism. She has a great sense of what is "worth it" in terms of budget, and how to maximize impact for things like décor and flowers. This was extremely helpful, as we felt as though we were making good use of our budget, and were not pressured to overspend in any way. Choosing individual vendors was something that really overwhelmed me (there are so many great options!). Diana made this process seamless! At the start of our planning journey, we had a long discussion about what we were looking for in each vendor (e.g., photography style, entertainment type, floral colors, etc.) and our budget. She would send us 3-5 recommendations for each vendor and we would review and discuss. Obviously, if we wanted to see more options she would send them, but this really cut down on our stress and made this part of planning very straightforward. She also went through the entire design process with us, and put together a very detailed and helpful "mood board" that she shared with our florist, making that process super easy as well. Additionally, she was also extremely helpful in managing our vendors without letting us feel any stress. Our venue created some difficulties and could be frustrating to work with at times, and Diana did a TON of work in the background / back channeled with them to resolve any issues and keep things running smoothly. As we got closer to the day of, we had additional calls with her and all of our vendors to discuss the timeline. Diana created a VERY detailed, easy-to-follow timeline for the day before and day of. She also made a version for our families and bridal party that we could circulate. It was extremely helpful to have all of the timeline information in one place, and have the assurance that all of our vendors were on board with the timeline and could execute it easily. Day Of: Our day of could not have been better thanks to Diana and her team! They arrived early to the venue and ensured that everything was moving along with set up at the ceremony site and in the ballroom. My husband and I truly felt no stress the day of because we knew that all of the vendors were prepared and Diana was on it. We had a few timeline-related hiccups later in the day when our ceremony ran long (not Diana's fault!!) and she was quick to step in and make on-the-fly changes for the rest of the evening to make sure that things kept running smoothly. And the whole day was totally seamless as a result! All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend Diana for any wedding or event planning. She was warm, kind, organized, and pragmatic, and my husband, both of our families, and I loved working with her. Could not recommend more!!

We worked with Diana for the past year and a half to plan our wedding, and our experience with her…read moreand her team was unmatched. I was overwhelmed with the wedding planning process and knew I needed help to pull off our ideas for the day. She understood my vision immediately and worked with us to find the perfect vendors, give us ideas, and keep us reassured throughout the entire process. Our wedding was based in San Francisco, with a church ceremony in the city and our reception on Treasure Island. When I mentioned an idea to Diana that we could ferry the guests across the Bay instead of using shuttles, she didn't bat an eye. She reached out to all sorts of boat companies and we landed on the perfect transportation solution for our goals and our budget. The day, though logistically challenging, felt seamless. As a very organized person myself, I often find it difficult to relax when we're on a tight schedule; but that day, I felt so much at ease and incredibly supported the entire day knowing that Diana and her team had the details covered. When we arrived at the reception, the venue had been transformed by her team and our vendors. It was well beyond my expectations and even my original vision. Our decorations, food, DJ/Band hybrid, gelato and coffee bars were amazing; but just as equally amazing were the small details - the guests' table settings, photo and welcome tables were set up perfectly. Diana and her team made sure we got a chance to try all our appetizers and stuck to our timeline without it feeling too structured or like we were pulled in too many directions. Overall, this was truly the best day, and I'm so grateful for Diana and her team that made it so. Our guests are still telling us that this was the best wedding they had ever been to, complimenting every single aspect of it - and we owe that all to Diana. We couldn't have done it without her! I highly recommend her as a planner who is willing to take on every challenge and execute perfectly.

While planning our wedding, I put a lot of time and effort into finding the perfect (and affordable) vendor for all aspects. I was pretty devastated to learn how expensive lighting could cost and had eventually decided to go to Costco to buy our own lights and wing it! Upon searching Craigslist for used lights, I came across A-Tough Lighting. Can't tell you how happy I am that I sent that e-mail. Tank was very quick to respond and we set up a time in the next few days for a consultation. We discussed ideas and he was extremely helpful in working with our budget. We immediately were happy with our decision Here were a few decided on that were delivered wonderfully: -Zigzagged Italian lights for our reception room -String lights outside over ceremony -Wall of lights that were roughly 24 ft wide by 30 ft high (turned out AMAZING) -Draped curtain of lights to the entrance of huge barn like door -Tons of uplighting creating pathways and great detail Tank was awesome. His personality was very energetic and so enthusiastic!. He was open to all ideas and gave us great feedback as well. His partner, Vanessa, was also very helpful and as a team they got things done! If you're looking someone who will be excited for your event, who's open to all of your ideas, someone who is professional, and someone who will create an overall great experience -- Tank is your guy!

So, are you telling me you are going to do all my stressful dirty work?! Hell yeaaaa....where do I sign lol?! I hired her to decorate the dessert table, and the sweetheart table with the matching backdrop that also included the letter of our last name, and ordered two throne chairs to really set the tone. Our wedding colors were silver, and purple, with bling accents. She did a really good job. She also delivered and set up everything before the wedding, and came back to pick up everything once the reception was over. She's a brides angel.
