Looking for a wedding coordinator? Go DIRECTLY to Dreams on a Dime without any hesitation. Brenda…read morewas our Month of Coordinator and she went ABOVE AND BEYOND.First of all, they did not oversell themselves...I told them what I had already accomplished before even calling them and they said, "you only need month of coordination. you've got this." However, a few months before the wedding I was so overwhelmed with all the detail that Brenda offered to meet and she just helped me organized my priorities and made me feel really good about the progress I had made. She did the same 6 weeks later. OMG, so helpful to keep me going and manage the overwhelm. As the date grew nearer, she started leading more to ensure we took care of those horrible details (seating charts, signage, communication with vendors, table set ups, and the timeline, etc). At every moment she was calm, lovely, relatable, fun, reassuring, and extremely competent. The week before the wedding she came over and took ownership of all the "stuff" (candles, ceremony items, decorations, etc). That felt sooo good. She was great at the rehearsal and made sure "all the cats were herded"so we got through the rehearsal and worked out all the details. The day of the wedding? We were so relaxed and didn't think about a single thing. The tables were set exactly as we had discussed, the ambiance was amazing, every little detail she had taken care of. and then she cleaned up and stored everything for us and then brought it back to us a couple of days later. During the wedding, Brenda was a total ninja....I barely saw her at the wedding as she was in the background making it all happen so we could enjoy our guests. A guest even took a picture of her that makes her look like the super hero she is, LOL! You will LOVE working with Brenda. I cannot recommend her more vigorously. She is amazing.

I am here to give a HUMONGOUS shoutout to Cierra, who was the absolute MVP of what was thee…read morefavorite day of our lives!! From the first call, she put our anxious brains at ease and listened carefully to what weirdo vision we had in mind + what things we were most afraid of turning awry. Having never planned such a fete before, I had hella dumbass questions to lob at her, but that did not faze her at all. Not only is Cierra hypercompetent at her job and super solutions-oriented and knowledgeable, she is a plain joy to talk to and bounce ideas off of and joke around with. Just an all-round cool human that added to the overall atmosphere of love and appreciation we wanted to foster at our wedding (while also running an impeccably tight ship without breaking a sweat). ANYWAY needless to say we are major Cierra fans here and want you all to know that she is a dream collaborator for your big day, may you be so lucky!

Mr SHAP was an incredible addition to a recent family birthday, engaging easily with a crowd of…read moreadults and children from 3 to 11 years old. The party started a little later than normal, with friends rolling in, and Mr SHAP took everything in stride. Without any prompting or interruptions to the hosts, he quickly adjusted to balloon twisting first and then doing his magic show towards the end of his time with us (vs. the original plan of doing the magic show first). I really appreciated that he read the room, took initiative, and still delivered exactly what we had agreed to. Friends came up to say how great he was! He also was incredibly efficient with setting up and breaking down, and everyone loved his energy and his magic!

We hired Mr. Shap for our twins' 6th birthday party, and he was absolutely fantastic. From the…read moremoment he arrived, he had the kids completely engaged and, just as impressively, the parents too! He managed a large, energetic group of kindergarteners with ease, keeping everyone laughing, focused, and excited throughout the entire show. His magic was age-appropriate, interactive and surprising, with lots of opportunities for kids to participate. The energy in the room never dipped, and the smiles were constant. Several parents came up to us afterward to comment on how great he was, which says a lot. Mr. Shap is professional and clearly very experienced with young children. We couldn't have asked for a better entertainer and would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone planning a kids' party.

John and Mandi are both incredibly professional, easy to communicate with, and clearly take pride in what they do. Everything from their responsiveness to their attention to detail stands out right away. It's rare to find a team that's both organized and genuinely pleasant to work around. They seem to have a strong system in place and really know how to deliver a smooth experience. You can tell they care about maintaining a high standard across the board. Definitely a company that leaves a positive impression.

I…read moreplanned a 30th bday party for my son in our backyard and wanted some kind of entertainment for guests and decided to have a casino night. A friend of mine recommended 21 Fun Casino Party and they did not disappoint. From the planning to the very last minute everyone I dealt with was friendly and accommodating. We had blackjack, roulette and craps. I would say craps was a hit and people took turns to play it. The dealers were friendly and entertaining. They were very professional, showed up on time and set up quickly. Overall everyone had an amazing time and I'm happy I booked them.

As a wedding photographer, coordinators really help make things happen for our clients, therefore…read morereally help us do our job. Having someone to organize the day, as well as help make it beautiful to look at is a huge part of a couple's wedding day. Duncan does all that and more. I had the pleasure of working as a photographer at a wedding Duncan was coordinating at the Boulder Ridge Golf course in San Jose. There was a lot of chaos going on that day due to the Jazz festival happening... and like the rockstar he is he remained calm and made sure things that had to get done got done. In the end our clients were happy, and I was given enough time to take the beautiful photographs that they have to remember their day by. And that's besides the beautiful decor of the wedding that was incredible to photograph. So not only did the bride and groom's day go wonderful, but it looked stellar as well. Duncan is a rock star!

5 stars all around for Duncan, who lived up to his legendary reputation. Duncan was actually the…read morefirst vendor we hired. My husband had experienced Duncan's talent at his older brother's wedding and kept saying how smooth everything was. We were lucky that Duncan was available on our date and hired him without hesitation. Starting the month before the wedding, Duncan was the main point of contact for every vendor we had hired. A wedding is such a production with so many people involved, so it was super helpful to have a coordinator handle major communications and follow up. Duncan came up with a detailed, 6-page timeline and ensured everyone knew where they needed to be at all times. He has great ideas and is always accessible, quick to respond, and detail-oriented. One example that impressed me was how Duncan caught an error on my seating chart. To organize our guests, we had three different spreadsheets in Google Docs. One spreadsheet indicated everyone's entree selections. Another spreadsheet listed everyone by table. A third spreadsheet organized everyone alphabetically. Without my asking, Duncan cross-referenced the three spreadsheets and asked me if one guest was still coming, because her name with missing from the alphabetical order spreadsheet. Good thing Duncan caught that, because I was using the alphabetical order spreadsheet to lay out my seating chart! His timing couldn't have been better because he caught the error before I printed the chart. Whenever anyone asks me how my wedding went, I tell them it was everything I hoped it would be and more. The day really was about as perfect as it could have been! I give a huge chunk of the credit to Duncan for making sure everything went off without a hitch. A relaxed bride is a happy bride. I absolutely recommend Duncan as someone you can trust to make your day happen. Hire him so that you can kick back and enjoy every moment!

My husband and I had a fantastic experience with Vittorio and his team catering our wedding at the…read moreHibernia Bank! Vittorio did a personal tasting with us and helped us figure out a delicious menu without any red meat or pork. Leading up to the event, he promptly communicated updates as planning progressed. His team arrived to the event on time and took care of setting the tables and pouring water, and then helped rearrange the venue during cocktail hour in preparation for dinner. Throughout it all, they were friendly and accommodating as we made a few changes on the fly. Our family and friends loved the food and dessert, and the team helped clean up once the night was done. I only plan on having one wedding in my life, but I'm hopeful I'll have another big event where I can work with Vittorio again! For anyone looking to work with Vittorio or another caterer in the future, my one piece of advice: figure out if your venue will require a fire permit for Sterno burners and alert your caterer well ahead of time so they can work that out!

Vittorio and his wonderful team members Valeria, Ani, Johnatan and Jerson made our wedding a truly…read moreunforgettable day. Their attention to detail, kindness, seamless collaboration with our other vendors and accommodation to our guests was everything we could have hoped for and more. They were our first vendors to arrive at our wedding and the last to leave, taking the extra step to ensure my wife and I had a full plate for dinner. They warmly welcomed our guests, were so respectful to our parents and made the entire party feel personal and professional. The food was phenomenal. Our guests devoured the fiocchetti pasta, the sauce in the rigatoni calabrese was delicious and the caesar salad was fresh and crisp. Once everyone was served, my husband and I watched at our sweetheart table as the entire party quieted down while people enjoyed their dinner. We still receive compliments on it days later, with many agreeing with us that it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Throughout our planning process Vittorio was ready and available for a call, allowing us to reach out whenever we had something to run by him. He allowed us to completely customize our menu, even making a special eggplant parmigiana for a small contingent of our guests. He was clear and transparent about pricing and helped us rent our tables and chairs. We could not recommend Trattoria Da Vittorio enough to any couples who are passionate about food and are eager to share that love with their wedding guests. Vittorio and his team were incredibly kind to work with and were a highlight of our wedding. Their delicious food and amazing work made our wedding all we could have dreamed of and we would book them again for any other occasion. If you are looking for an incredible caterer who is passionate about food and will make your planning process a breeze, Vittorio is who you need to go with.

Becca and her team are a huge reason why my wedding went so smoothly…read more I booked Becca for a 2020 wedding, but she was super accommodating when we had to move our date to late 2021 due to COVID. Becca's communication, organization, and calm demeanor gave me peace of mind throughout the whole planning process and on the wedding day. We touched base via phone every weekly starting a month out from the event, and Becca was always very prompt in responding to my texts and emails. There were quite a few adjustments that happened the week before the wedding but she stayed on top of it. She communicated all details to our vendors starting a few weeks prior to the event and all my vendors raved about how organized and communicative she was. Becca's team helped set up the decor for my gift table + small items on the banquet tables. Everything looked exactly as I requested. The entire day was on schedule and stress-free so we were able to really enjoy the entire event. At the end of the night, her team packed up all the decor for us. The caterer ended up leaving without completing some responsibilities and her team took care of it so that we'd get 100% of our deposit back. I'm so grateful that Becca really took care of us throughout the day. I highly recommend Becca to coordinate your special day!

She helped us one month before our wedding and that was a crucial time for us because we were planning our wedding from out of state. She was really responsive to our emails, calls and text. I don't think I could've kept it together if it weren't for Becca. Our wedding day was smooth and flawless and we were ahead of schedule! We knew that our venue was really strict and had to end on the dot. Becca and her assistant was really professional and kept us on schedule. People say that your wedding day goes by fast, and it does. Becca and her assistant did everything behind the scenes so my husband and I could enjoy our day. We can't thank Becca enough, she's truly the best!
