I worked with YHD for my wedding on April 2, 2011. We hired Michelle to be our day of planner and…read moreshe was excellent. We live in Modesto, CA and Michelle helped us plan our wedding from 700 miles away. Our first meeting was professional as well as comfortable. My self, fiancé, dad and step-mom met with Michelle at Starbucks and she had a folder of information ready for us, we worked through a preliminary budget, helping all parties to understand exactly what the wedding we wanted will cost. I was very upfront about my budget, $10k, and was given the same courtesy from Michelle about their rates. Her rate quoted to us for day of planning was $2k in 2010, but she gave us a discount because the full $2k was not in our budget. Michelle gave us unlimited email contact from the day we met and was available for deliveries the day before and the day of the event. The email contact was very helpful. Each time I got a finalized contract from a caterer, photographer, party rental facility, etc. I would email it to Michelle for review. She helped me to negotiate services into my contract and reminded me of anything I had forgotten to ask. The service provided the day before and the day of the wedding was fantastic. Michelle came to the venue the day before to meet rental deliveries and set up all tables and chairs. She also ran the rehearsal even though we started about 45 minutes late. The day of Michelle was at the venue about 6 hours before start time, meeting all vendors, making all payments for us, making sure everyone in the wedding party was on time and knew where they were supposed to be. She offered moral support to me was available for anything I needed. My goal for a wedding planner was to have someone help my day be stress free. Michelle of YHD made this possible. I had a hard time with my dad accepting that we wanted/needed a wedding planner, he thought most of the wedding "wasn't necessary". He said we could have done everything without her, I don't think that's true for a second. I was sitting in my bridal suite, sipping on wine and water, waiting for someone to tell me it was time to start. Without Michelle, I probably would have been setting up candles, flowers, checking on the food, is there enough ice at the bar, in a robe, with my hair half done, while my guests were arriving. I would highly recommend Your Heart's Desire for your full wedding planning, or day of services. No matter how much you think you have your wedding under control, you will want to have someone else running the show behind the scenes. With this service, you are able to be a guest at your own wedding.

Having her as…read morea planner has taken a lot of the stress and guesswork out of planning my (wedding) vow renewal. She practically pays for herself! I'm having a themed event and she's been able to keep me within scope AND budget. If you've never planned a wedding, you'll want the Expert aka Laura. She's already been able to find me an excellent photographer with a substantial discount, recommended the best venue, was able to all the questions I wouldn't have known to ask of both the church and reception venue, and thoroughly reviews contracts before you sign. From working with her, it's evident just how experienced she is. You get so much more than a planner: you get to see your dreams become a reality. She's professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and promptly answers texts, phone calls, and emails. She's also honest, which you need when you're spending so much money on a big event. You don't want someone who always says "Yes" to you all of the time. I sincerely appreciate her candor and integrity. I found Laura at one of the bridal shows; she was the only wedding planner there. I came home with an incredibly detailed list of what she offered with her various packages. I still Googled other planners, but she was the only one with 5 star reviews ACROSS the board. Other planners weren't as detailed as she is on their Web sites, which made me hesitant to even contact them. She's not of the cheapest options, and she readily admits that but she's probably the best bang for your buck. You can do your wedding wrong (which I did the first time because we didn't have a planner) or do it with Laura (which is the right way to do it).

My long awaited wedding day was an absolute DREAM come true and from the bottom of our hearts my husband and I couldn't thank Tuby, Meg, Michael, and all her exceptional team members that worked in the background for making this wedding an EXPERIENCE. The moment I hired finer detailz for FULL wedding coordination and design I felt at ease knowing they were going to deliver above my expectations and YES they exceeded every single one. I came to Tuby with a vision (or maybe several visions haha) and she truly made it come to life. She took a BLANK canvas and turned it into the most elegant, luxe, romantic, dark, moody, wedding reception I had ever seen. Everything from the tear drop tables, upside down hanging roses, velvet linens, gold reef chargers, candle galore, and cake swing was an absolute hit. As it came down to the week of the wedding, Tuby always made it a point to check in on me and see how I was doing. She made sure I was as relaxed as possible and always provided me a sense of security. That trust and bond we built really made my wedding week so stress free and I got to enjoy the wedding week with friends and family! Finer detailz really provided exceptional professionalism, elegance, and high end luxury rentals with an experienced team and top tier event designer. We are so thankful for the stress free experience they provided and can not wait to work with them for future events! We love the Finer Detailz Team xo

Tara is excellent, and honestly she was critical in making our wedding so special. We had her for…read more"day-of coordination" and she made it 100% painless. Starting a few weeks before the wedding, we handed over our plans to her and she reviewed everything and asked questions to make sure she know what we wanted. Her years of experience made her an excellent advisor on the last minute details, and there were at least two or three things we wouldn't have thought to plan for, but she knew. Here's an example of why she is great: what if your bartender thought the end time was 10pm, but we thought it was 11pm? And, by the way, it's 9:45 and they want to do last call. Tara is right there - she knew this was about to happen because the bartender had been coordinating with her all night, she knew our plan was 11pm, and so she approached us very calmly and quietly and asked if we meant to close it at 10pm. We said no, we thought it was 11pm and people were still having fun, so could we keep it open until 10:30 or 11 as planned? Off she went off and took care of it without another word or input from us. It took us seconds, not minutes of negotiating with the bartender, so we could get back to partying. All night, she kept track of time, kept track of vendors, set up those final details we didn't have time to setup, and many, many other unseen things we may never know about. At the end of the night, she had everything we were taking with us packed up, including leftover food and cake, so when the driver called her to say he was ready for us, she could let us know. When we were ready, she made sure we got the things we wanted to take and off we went. Throughout the whole day, we had nothing to worry about except enjoying the wedding. It was one of the best decisions we made, and I would do it again no matter our budget!
