    Sheila was my day-of-coordinator for my wedding and I am so glad I went with her! She gives zero judgements because she talks to you like an old friend, but she always provides feedback on how to make your plans/suggestions better and she always looked out for my guests. She was able to work with my venue to get an earlier entry time and she was even able to convince them to set up some rows of chairs for our indoor ceremony! There were so many things that didn't go according to plan, but Sheila was very creative in changing up the timeline to ensure we were on time! To top it off, she made sure my husband and I always had a drink in hand LOL Hire Sheila, you won't regret it!!

    Sheila was our wedding planner and we can't say enough good things about her. We had our wedding at the Vineyard at 37 High Holly in North Carolina and it was an absolutely perfect day. Her communication with our vendors was thorough and professional and our vendors said that they loved working with her, too. On the day of we were both very nervous, but Sheila went above and beyond to make sure we were stress free and that we enjoyed the day, which meant so much to us. The whole day flowed so smoothly! We absolutely recommend her services.

    My husband and I got married a few months ago (so this review is slightly overdue!), and Sheila was our wedding planner. Summary: Our wedding day was AMAZING! Sheila was a great planner for the following reasons: 1. Planning Process: I hear other's talk about wedding-planning horror stories, and I have to say our wedding planning process was FAR from a horror! Sheila helped simplify options (because there are SO many!), made the perfect recommendations and handled all negotiations and contracts (not my favorite part at all so this was extremely helpful!). 2. Wedding Day = BEAUTIFUL! Everything looked so pretty. Right before I walked down the aisle, I walked through the reception hall. (This was the most discrete way to get to the ceremony location.) I was so focused on getting to the ceremony that it didn't even occur to me that I would be seeing the reception hall in final form. As soon as I walked in, the set up took my breath away. It was such an awesome feeling to be so caught up in my nerves, but then see how beautiful our kings tables, flowers, centerpieces and sweetheart table all looked! It put a big smile on my face right before walking out to see my groom. :) 3. Stress-Free: Sheila kept reminding me as we got closer to the wedding to not stress or worry about anything because she would take care of it. And so, while not worrying about anything a week or two out is probably almost impossible for any bride, I have to say exactly three days from the wedding I literally stopped worrying about everything, ha! Sheila assured me that she'd handle everything, and she did. Things went smoothly on the day of the wedding! 4. FUN! We had SO much fun. I mean, I shouldn't speak for others, but I know I had so much fun! The venue was beautiful; we stayed on schedule; and the vendors were all organized! Everything just came together so well, and Sheila did such an amazing job with making sure this all happened. Our wedding was so beautiful, fun and stress-free. Sheila/Event Solutions - Thank you again for helping us build amazingly wonderful wedding memories! We appreciate all you did before and on our wedding day! What a magical day! Thank you! Cheers! Daniela (and Josh)

    The cake of my dreams!!! Thanks to Sheila

    There are absolutely no other words to describe Sheila and Event Solutions other than PERFECT. Over the weekend, I got to marry my best friend and everything I envisioned for an intimate destination wedding came alive in front of my eyes. Living in LA and planning to get married in San Francisco was a bit tough. Sheila was highly recommended to me by my wedding venue as an approved vendor. From the day I contacted her until the day of my wedding, there wasn't a single thing she missed. She wasn't just my Wedding Coordinator - she was my Florist, my Caterer, my PERSON every step of the way! From the chairs, the table linens, cake & flowers, colors that I wanted (despite my stress overload) - she calmed me down and made it all happen! No matter how big or small your wedding is, having a coordinator like HER will make you realize how much you need one on such a special day. We were able to RELAX and ENJOY every second of our wedding bliss thanks to Event Solutions and that to me, is what matters most when hiring someone. Sheila - Sherwin and I, and all of our guests loved your work, your personality, your amazing vibes and we know you and your company will make a huge difference in the wedding industry!

    If anyone is considering hiring a wedding or event planner, you should definitely consider hiring Sheila Dizon... In a word, Sheila is AMAZING - and indispensable to helping you organise your perfect event. While the initial cost of a wedding planner may seem high, the benefits you gain from having one are priceless... sanity, peace of mind, and absolute confidence that everything will turn out exactly as you envision. My husband and I hired Sheila to help plan our Vows Renewal celebration in Napa. Having attempted to plan a wedding on my own once before (and suffering a nervous breakdown in the process), I knew the enormity of the task - so 5 years later, with the addition of an active 2 year old to care for, I knew I would need some extra help. I met Sheila randomly at a Wedding Fair, and we clicked instantly - Sheila was friendly, personable, genuine, and I knew right away that I wanted her to help me plan my wedding. At the time of the initial meeting, we hadn't decided on ANYTHING - mainly because my husband and I had such different ideas on everything. That's where Sheila stepped in, as mediator, negotiator, and organizer. Taking into account our taste and budget, she organized all our venue site tours, the tasting, the DJ, the strings, the flowers, my hair and make-up artist, table decorations, tree lanterns, toiletry baskets, wedding favors, the rehearsal, the timeline, AND came with me to all my dress fittings! Sheila was such an invaluable resource during the entire planning process, as she has such a wide network of vendors, and each time I realised I was missing something, Sheila came to my rescue with a list of recommendations. She came to the rehearsal in Napa the night before the wedding, then drove back to San Francisco in order to pick up my flowers early next morning and bring them to Napa. On the day of the wedding, I was so relaxed, as I knew that Sheila and her team would take care of everything, and ensure that all vendors knew where to go, and that everything was in place at the right time. The entire wedding day was perfect, everything ran smoothly, and Sheila was by my side each time I needed her - whether it was to hand me my jacket, re-apply my lipstick, bustle my dress, or change my shoes (I had 3 pairs!). And I forgot to mention that Sheila is GREAT with kids! By around 9:00pm, our 2yr old was tired and cranky, so Sheila took him outside and sang/ rocked him to sleep, so my husband could come back to enjoy the party! I honestly cannot say enough good things about Sheila - she has been our friend, confidant and personal assistant over the last 6 months, and I will certainly miss seeing her so often. As another reviewer stated, she does not set limits on the number of meetings, calls, or emails - she always has time for you, and responds to all messages very promptly. Sheila, it's been such a pleasure working with you - you have my highest recommendations, and I'm so glad I ran into you at that wedding fair back in March! :)

    The most BEAUTIFUL bouquet! Am I right??? Sheila is so incredibly talented! Photography: MKF Photo

    Sheila is the absolute BEST investment I made as a bride for my wedding. Not only is she extremely organized, incredibly creative, unbelievably talented, but she's also VERY passionate about what she does and it, undoubtably, made working with her that much more amazing. My now husband and I spent a weekend with Sheila about 5 months before our wedding day to visit venues after a major fall out with our first destination (we're from Cincinnati) and she went FAR above and beyond to make sure that 1. we found our perfect venue, 2. we stayed within our budget, and 3. that we got to EXPERIENCE San Fran while we were in town. From there, she was constantly checking in, following up and making sure this moment, our wedding day, was absolutely PERFECT (down to every last detail) and so so so memorable. Her vendor suggestions were ON POINT (and truly genuine suggestions to fit our personalities and wedding expectations) and Sheila also did our bouquets and boutonnieres (because, YES, she's THAT amazing), which were breathtaking! Sheila is a visionary within the realm of event planning and I couldn't be more grateful to have had her be such a special part of our big day. Love you so much, Sheila!

    Thank You Sheila!! #murdasgettinmarried

Arrived at 5:30 and was surprised when I saw a small but decent amount of folks here. When I approached the bar and got my first drink, I understood why folks were there so early....the drinks were a buck! Such a steal and great way to get folks in. The concept of battle of the decades is great too! Each hour is a different decade of music,starting with the 60's. I spent a few hours dancing from 60's-80's music until about 8pm (perfect for an old millennial like me) until the place filled up. Totally great night at Monroe. Cheap drink specials, great music, and I was able to get in bed by 8:30pm. I'll definitely be back again.

Located on Broadway in North Beach, it's always high energy and popping, but I've never had any issues getting in. Also love that there's no cover charge for women, so I can just enjoy the night with my friends here without having to pay the equivalent price of a drink before I've even stepped inside. Even with the club frequently packed, especially the later in the night you go, I find the facilities pretty clean compared to many other similar lounges. It's also conveniently located near late night pizza and crêpe eateries that are still open after Monroe closes for the win, which makes it an all-around no brainer to choose going here versus other venues.

When I asked for the rental fee, I was never given a straight answer, instead I was pressured to disclose how much I was charging my vendors. After finally agreeing to a fee and then it was suddenly doubled less than a week before my July 13 event. The excuse? That the downstairs space was being "opened for me," even though I never requested it. The owner also insisted I rewrite a press release to promote their "Broadway Revival" agenda, something that had nothing to do with my event. I ended up doing free promotion for their venue and agenda when they should have been paying me. Out of courtesy, I gave an additional $400, clearly stating in writing that it was only for two extra load-in hours on Saturday night and for Sunday's bartender. Once inside on Saturday to do load in with the vendors, I had to spend two hours cleaning just to make the space usable. I paid them, to clean their space. A total joke. When I arrived at 8 a.m. on July 13, after multiple confirmations with the GM Tom that he would personally be the point of contact, nobody was there to open the doors. Vendors and I were left standing outside, delaying setup for an event I had spent months preparing. Other major issues: -I was told there were plenty of 6ft tables for vendors. There were none. I had to buy my own and then fight for weeks to retrieve them. The GM dodged my requests, only returning them after I threatened to file a police report for theft over a month later. -The owner repeatedly told acquaintances they could vend without checking with me, forcing me to awkwardly deny people tables at my own event. -Minutes before opening, I was told the event had to be 21+ only. Families were turned away at the door, vendors lost sales, and community trust was damaged. -The bartender arrived late, overcharged guests, and pocketed the difference. -The sound system malfunctioned, undermining performances and leaving the space silent at times. Afterward, I still tried to resolve things professionally. I met with the GM, Tom Watson, and we agreed to host again on October 3rd, with promises that things would go smoother. He assured me multiple times it was confirmed, but kept dodging signing the contract. On August 18, he finally admitted he had double-booked and wanted me to move my date, even though he had booked the other promoter after me. After weeks of being strung along, I've had no choice but to cancel using their space because he text me on August 18 to tell me that he had double booked and now I'm left scrambling with the potential of canceling my event altogether. Losing time, money, and most of all trust with the community. An event that would have supported over 40 small local businesses, all because of this venue's lack of transparency and accountability. Booking a venue should be simple: clear terms, reliable communication, and mutual respect. None of that happened here. I cannot recommend this venue to any organizer or business owner looking for professionalism, unless you're looking to lose weight from stress. If you're an event planner, promoter, or any person who values professionalism, RUN. Avoid this new "crew" that is trying to revive the fab mab. They've affected my business, and they will do the same to yours.

Out of 6+ ovens they had. Only 2 were working and NOT working properly. This is a cooking event space, and if there are no functional ovens, I think it defeats the purpose. In addition, most the knives were dull and barely cut well. You get to cook one of the 4 or 5 dishes. I would highly recommend you rotate the stations, and everyone learns a little more hands on. Way too much teaching compared to doing. Some might enjoy the simplicity, but for a high ticket price, I would expect more. I would say if they fixed the oven problem, and became a little more hospitable, then it would be an easy 5 star place.
