I don't know how it is possible that I didn't review Jill immediately, in fact I am pretty sure I did. . . That said, holy crap, Jill is the best thing that has ever happened to day of wedding planning. As an event/meeting planner, not only did she tolerate my over the top google docs, but she kept me blissfully unaware of any issues that came up day of. We laughed about the issues later, but in the midst of things? I was too busy enjoying the best day ever to worry about anything. As a planner, the idea of getting involved in an event six weeks out gives me hives, but Jill rolls in like a bolt of silk - coordinating all the things, troubleshooting the holes you hadn't considered, and generally lending a hand however needed. She is a Godsend and worth every amount of money. Hire her, immediately. read more

Planning a wedding was really not my idea of fun at all. After feeling horribly overwhelmed and frustrated, my (now) husband gently suggested we hire someone. After communicating with a few, we met with Jill and couldn't have been happier. It was absolutely the best use of our money - she was a great advocate for us. I would hire her again for any event. Her presence made the day of our wedding so easy - we just showed up and got to be guests! read more

Jill Guiomar of Eventful Days is a fantastic wedding coordinator. We did all of the planning but were looking for someone to be in charge the day of the wedding and I am SO GLAD we hired Jill. It was so nice to have a point person for the day and I know there were so many details Jill took care of behind the scenes. My husband and I were able to be in the moment and enjoy our special day without having to worry about what was happening when. Jill's prices are also very reasonable and for the service she provides, she is really priceless. I appreciated how calm, knowledgeable, confident, clear, organized, and genuinely pleasant Jill was at every step of the process, including the big day. We are so thankful for the great work she did! read more

Words seriously cannot express how phenomenal Jill is!! She was without a doubt the best decision we made in terms of wedding vendors. From the moment we met, I knew Jill was going to be amazing. I could tell she was extremely organized, professional, and I loved that she had a business degree background. She was one of the few people who did not scoff at the idea that we did not really have wedding "colors" but had more of an overall "feel". We did the 6 week package with Jill, and she took care of making our timeline (which we even ran early on at the reception and allowed us to play a super fun game with the DJ) and communicating and coordinating everything with all of our vendors. We had our reception at the Oakland Zoo Snow Building, which essentially included only the building and banquet tables - everything else was from outside vendors which we had to find on our own. Jill did an absolutely amazing job handling all of the vendors we'd chosen. We had our DJ, caterer, photographer, videographer, and photo booth guy come up to us on separate occasions throughout the night at the reception to tell us Jill was the BEST coordinator they had ever worked with before, which is saying a lot considering how many weddings they do! Communicating with Jill was a breeze. We exchanged emails and had phone meetings throughout the last few weeks before our wedding. Two days before the wedding, Jill drove to our house and loaded up her van with all of our reception decorations. I'd left instructions for many of the items to show where they should go in the room, but many of the decorations I'd just told her to put wherever she felt they looked best. Our reception turned out to be more beautiful and even more perfect than I ever could have imagined!! Jill executed our vision flawlessly and seemingly effortlessly. I never once got a sense of stress from her throughout the entire process. Even when I had concerns with our BevMo order, Jill calmed me down and assured me she would take care of everything. She did. If there were any issues at all that happened at the reception, my husband and I were never aware. We were able to have the most amazing night celebrating with our family and friends, and we owe that to Jill. You absolutely will not be disappointed with Jill! Unless of course she is not available on your wedding day, then you should be disappointed...so just make sure to lock her down early! read more

Jill is absolutely amazing!!!! To say she made our big day smooth and stress-free would be a big understatement!! I picked the "day of" package and Jill started to work on the timeline 6 weeks prior to the wedding. I knew I would need a day of coordinator since day one because I'm not the most organized person and details stress me out. I talked to a few coordinators before I decided on Jill. I felt Jill had the most to offer given the price of the service and I did like her business background. I'm so glad I chose Jill, she's professional, organized, detail-oriented and pleasant. We met two times in person to discuss details and she came to my place to pick everything for the wedding. She was there for our rehearsal and all day on the wedding day. Everything went perfect on the wedding day. To be honest I had no idea how many details she handled on that day, but I felt like being a guest at my own wedding and didn't have to worry about a thing. I highly recommend Jill, she's worth every penny! Thank you so much Jill! read more

Jill was definitely the BEST investment we made for our wedding. We could not have survived the stress and hectic-ness of the wedding without her! Jill really went above and beyond her job to take the stress out of our wedding weekend (and weeks leading up to it) and we could not be more thankful! The days leading up to the wedding were among the most stressful a bride and groom go through, especially if you have to deal with vendors who dropped the ball. Jill was able to jump right in and take care of everything so that my husband and I could enjoy our time with friends and family instead of stressing out about the little things, especially before the big day. As for the actual wedding day, my husband and I did not have to worry about a thing! As soon as we got to the wedding site, Jill was already there directing the vendors and helping set up. She even had time to get us lunch and make last minute changes. Jill was essential in directing our vendors and guests and making sure everything went smoothly and on time. My husband seriously could not believe how easy and perfect the day went and could not have imagined getting through it all without her! read more

Wedding May 14, 2016 in Walnut Creek. Jill was great throughout the entire process. She offered guidance and kept in touch via email, which as a bride planning and planning it's much appreciated. She offered a detailed timeline that all of my vendors used. Of course, there will be mishaps, but we worked together to resolve anything that came up. I won't go through all the details, but having a coordinator like Jill to take care of the little things and the big things on your wedding day is well worth it. We were able to enjoy our guests, and with a day that you put so much time, effort, and money into, she made sure we were able to truly celebrate - even if the day does FLY by. Don't expect a perfect day, as our food ended up being a MESS (extremely disappointed with Small Thyme Catering), but she reminded me that the rest of the day was amazing and practically perfect. Can't thank her enough for just making sure we got to enjoy it all. read more

This review is LONG overdue. I had Jill do my wedding on 08/04/2012 at the Gardens at Heather Farms. She was my day of coordinator and omg, she did such an amazing job. I have an type A personality and to say she figured everything out for me is an understatement. She began introducing herself to vendors a week prior and handled everything else so smoothly during the last final stretch of the wedding. And now, here it is 6 years later and I am so happy to see her business thriving. What made me think of her was the fact that she's now a preferred vendor at the Gardens at Heather Farms and I realized I hadn't written a review on her. She's absolutely amazing and you definitely need to hire her ASAP for your wedding! She made my day as perfect as it could possibly be! read more

Jill is awesome. It was such a pleasure having her on board for our wedding; I don't know what I would have done without her. She is very knowledgeable and resourceful and allows you to share your vision and make it happen. She offers direction without being overbearing and was on top of everything. As the days were winding down, the more stressed I became. Jill was there to keep me focused and assure me she had it all covered. She is very professional and personable, which made the planning come together beautifully. My day was perfect! My bridal party, including the groomsmen were really impressed with her, it was great. read more

Jill did a truly exceptional job coordinating my wedding about a month ago. While we were technically paying for her "day-of" services, she provided so much more than that. We met about 6 weeks before the wedding, and she was highly organized. She helped us think through every detail of the wedding to ensure the actual day would run smoothly. In many cases, she raised questions about important details we hadn't even considered. Whenever we were unsure of what to do, she helped us come to resolutions by asking good questions and offering helpful, creative ideas. She coordinated with all our vendors beforehand to make sure that all the details were completely ironed out. On my actual wedding day, Jill was incredible at making sure everything ran smoothly. Her being there was a true gift to me and my family, because we were able to focus on enjoying every moment of the wedding, and were not stressed at all in how things were going. I knew that even if something did go wrong, she would stay calm and find a solution. After the wedding, a good friend of mine told me that my wedding had been one of, if not the best, he'd ever been to. One of the reasons, he said, was that every part of the evening seemed to run seamlessly together, and the timing of everything just felt perfect. That is because of Jill! I would highly recommend Jill to anyone considering a wedding coordinator. She is SO worth it. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Jill is absolutely amazing to work with! My mom really wanted a day-of wedding planner so that she wouldn't have to be stressed during my wedding. Our church and reception venue each had their own on-site planner. At the reception venue, the planner always leaves once dinner is served, and that worried my mom. We decided to hire Jill for the day-of wedding package based on a recommendation from a friend and also a positive recommendation from our photographer. Jill's "day-of" package is actually a 6-week package. She explained that in order to best do her job on the wedding day, her policy was that she meets with her client 6 weeks before the wedding and then helps with last minute details, confirms with vendors, makes timelines, etc. She also corresponded with me throughout the process via email and phone to offer vendor suggestions and was there for me to bounce ideas off of. Jill is a very timeline-driven, business-oriented planner, which is exactly what I wanted. Because there was an on-site planner, Jill did not have to do as much set-up as she regularly would. She was upfront about this but ensured us that she would still be worth our money, and she certainly was! She was very professional, calm, and cheery. She created an incredibly detailed (flexible) timeline to ensure that nothing was left out that day. At our rehearsal, the on-site planner was not pleasant to work with. She might have just been having a bad day, but she was clearly making life difficult for everyone in the room. After the first run through of our wedding, Jill stepped in and courteously yet firmly explained to the woman that we were going to make some changes. I was so impressed by her ability to be professional in such a touchy situation. My parents, my husband, and I were able to enjoy ourselves throughout the entire wedding evening. After we left, my parents went to leave and found their car was already packed with all the gifts, toasting flutes, cake-cutting knife, and all the other supplies and decorations that we had. I absolutely recommend Jill - she was a great investment for our important day! read more

Jill is amazing! I hired her to be our day-of coordinator for our wedding on March 10, 2018. She was recommended by the woman baking our cake. Six weeks before our wedding, Jill hit the ground running. She gave us some suggestions for how the day should run, and provided a detailed timeline that she sent out to all of our vendors. We had planned to have our wedding outside, but had a backup rain plan just in case. It looked like it wasn't going to rain that day, so we decided to have it outdoors. 45 minutes before the ceremony was set to begin, it started sprinkling. I was a little stressed because guests had already started arriving and everything was already set up. Jill was very calm when she told me about the situation, and recommended that we bring the ceremony indoors. Everything went so smoothly after that. I don't know what I would have done if she wasn't there. At one point, our best man turned to us and said, "What ever you're paying Jill, it's not enough." That's how hard she worked for us. If I hadn't hired Jill, I don't know if I would have been able to enjoy the day as much as I did. It was so nice to not have to worry about the little details and to just enjoy myself. Hire Jill! She is incredible. read more

Jill is freaking FANTASTIC! She is an absolute professional and gives her 110% to our wedding. She is a great value compared to all the event organizers/ coordinators out there. She was there from giving advice about invitations, talking with all our vendors beforehand, arranging the timeline and ensured all our details on the day of were done. She is extremely organized, friendly and easy to work with. My guests were gushing on how smooth and organized our wedding went. We couldn't have asked for more perfect day thanks to the hard work of 1 woman - Jill Guiomar - SUPER WOMAN. I was a worry-free bride. Tell your future husband she's worth it! read more

Jill is amazing. We could not have planned our backyard wedding with 75 guests without her. We needed someone to help us with the logistics of having our ceremony and reception in our yard and she was so knowledgeable and experienced. She helped us figure out where everything would be set up and when things would be moved around, which was challenging since we have multiple levels in our hilly backyard. Planning a wedding is stressful but having her available to answer our questions and be a a source of knowledge was very comforting. We had four meetings with her leading up to the wedding and she was very responsive even between meetings. She got back to us in a timely manner when we emailed her questions and when we sent her our vendor contracts to look over. Jill is very detail-oriented and organized and we didn't have to worry about a thing on our wedding day. She coordinated with all of the vendors so that we could just focus on getting married. We were both completely able to enjoy our wedding day because Jill took care of everything and made sure everything ran smoothly. We are so glad we found her! read more

Jill planned our wedding in 2007 for 100 guests. She had her job cut out for her- we had our wedding at a venue that does not normally host weddings, so we went out and found our own caterer, DJ, photographer, florist... the works. Jill was extremely helpful at coordinating the various vendors, helping us with our budget and contracts, and making sure the event went smoothly. Like other reviewers have said, she was the first person there and the last to leave. She was also unbelievably organized. She really went above and beyond on this job. I would recommend her without a doubt to anyone needing a wedding planner (or a planner for any type of event, I'm sure!). read more

As caterers we appreciate working with wonderful event planners . . . and Jill is one of the best. She works with us hand-in-hand for our mutual client, with an organized, calm presence and at the same time is helpful, friendly and approachable. She is great to work with and we look forward to many more events together. Dawn & Martin Deardorf, Aurora Catering read more

Jill was one of the best investments we made for our wedding. Even though she is a "day-of" coordinator, she worked with us for a month leading up to the wedding. In the two weeks before the wedding, we exchanged emails just about every day. She updated our "timeline" every time we changed a detail and was happy to incorporate all of our ideas and opinions. On the actual day, I felt completely at ease and relaxed. In fact, people commented on how calm I seemed in the weeks prior to the wedding - it must have been due in part to Jill's help. She's the best and I am so glad we found her. read more

Jill was great in coordinating our wedding. We met with Jill two times before the wedding, then the rehearsal, and of course the wedding. She was the first person there and the last person to leave. She was really organized and easy to work with. Would not hesitate to hire her again! read more

Where do I begin to sing the well deserved praises of Jill Guiomar with, Eventful Days. Jill was a huge part of planning our son's college grad party. We hit a couple of snags along the way with our venue but Jill took them on her shoulders and made sure every one of them were worked out and we were able to move forward. From her careful attention to every detail, to setting up for us, the day of, and working with with the venue coordinator and lastly to running the show so we can enjoy our evening. Jill's suggestions and advice proved to be very helpful. I highly recommend Jill's services for your party planning needs. She very professional and very fun to work with. You will not be disappointed. read more

Wow! Jill did suuuch a great job coordinating our wedding. We were so impressed with her skill, knowledge and leadership. In the weeks leading up to the event Jill was very helpful and met me at the venue to go over details. She provided advice and insight on many details I hadn't thought of. Leading up to the wedding I dropped off all of my wedding items with Jill and inundated her with spreadsheets and instructions. I am pretty type-A and Jill literally captured everything I asked and then went above and beyond and added her own personal, skilled touches. Jill is also not just a coordinator- she has great taste and is able to take the lead on decor. I gave her all of my decor items and they were laid out beautifully- she really has an eye for it and did a much better job that I would have. Jill executed our rehearsal professionally, efficiently and quickly. She really showed her leadership skills as she herded around and coordinated so many people. Jill's personality was also just so pleasant- I never felt guilty or weird asking her for things, and she was able to get things done and boss people around without them even knowing they were being bossed around :) Jill was responsive, executed everything perfectly and truly went above and beyond. She even drove our little dog home form our venue so we could have him at the ceremony. Jill is such a professional and I actually think she should probably charge more- she is that good. read more

Jill was just fabulous at our recent wedding. I can't imagine how we would have managed without her. She worked with us in the last 6 weeks leading up to the wedding helping us make a timeline, coordinate with other vendors, and took all the stuff we needed to bring to the wedding at the rehearsal so we didn't need to deal with it. She handled the details on the day of, and I just didn't have to think about it. She handled making sure that everything got set up properly (whether by the caterer, the florist, friends or her, I don't know, because she handled it), and packed everything into our friends cars at the end. When people started asking me logistical questions, she redirected them, so I didn't have to deal with them at my wedding. She made a very detailed timeline, and then was flexible based on the flow of the party to adapt on the fly. I honestly don't know everything she did, because on the day of the wedding, I did not have to handle a thing, and my partner and I and our parents were able to relax and be present and not focused on the logistics. She just worked magic, and the wedding we planned happened around us in the most beautiful way. I highly recommend Jill. read more

Plain and simple no one does it better than Jill. Our day was smooth and Jill ran everything with pure perfection. All I had to do was show up for hair and make up and Jill did everything else. I consider her part of the family- she is beyond organized, handles every single detail, vendor, you name it and Jill does it. Our venue had a very unfortunately unorganized coordinator and Jill saved the day and dealt with her so I didn't have one worry. She has amazing ideas to make the day run perfectly and she takes care of it all. If you are getting married in the bay area or even surrounding areas, you absolutely must hire Jill!! read more

Jill is an amazing Wedding Planner . She helped us with our wedding- which alleviated a lot of the stress that comes with wedding planning. She even introduced us to our Officiant. Jill made our wedding (Feb. 25, 2017) flow perfectly- her timeline was structured really well and very detailed. She coordinated with all of the vendors. She also interacted very well with our guests- they knew where to go and what was happening next. We were surprisingly calm on our wedding day- knowing Jill would take care of us. We Highly recommend her for any event planning. Thank you Jill !! read more

Hiring Jill as our wedding coordinator was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning. I don't think I could ever thank her enough for making our celebration run so smoothly. It truly was a perfect day for me because Jill was there. Not only is she extremely organized, responsive, and diligent, but she is an absolute joy to work with and was such a calming presence during our wedding. I was originally hesitant about hiring a coordinator. We got married at a country club that provided its own wedding coordinator. About three months away from our wedding, I started getting very nervous about all of the many details and parts coming together. It also was pretty clear that I needed more help than the club's coordinator. I hired Jill for a six week organizing package. She was so incredibly helpful in putting together all of the details of the event. She created an incredibly detailed timeline and made some great suggestions regarding the sequence of events. She also had fantastic ideas about more customized and unique wedding programs. She came to our house a few days before the wedding to pick up all the stuff that you don't want to be thinking about the day of your wedding (escort cards, party favors, bridesmaid gifts, guest books, etc.). Everything was set up perfectly for the wedding, and she packed up the cars during the event so that there was nothing to do after the event ended. She also handled any potential issues with such ease. For example, one of the shuttles sent our guests to the wrong place. Jill fixed the problem, got the stranded guests to the venue, and our wedding started right on time. Even better, I had no idea that anything was wrong. Her services are incredibly reasonable. I know that it may seem like hiring a coordinator is something that you can do without, but trust me, her services far exceed the cost. read more

I could not have had the wedding I had if not for Jil. Her knowledge, and expertice guided us through every step of our wedding. She created a perfect timeline that helped us and our vendors stay on track. She was personally there for our rehearsel, wedding and reception to insure that everything went smoothly..and it did! I would highly recommend using Jill if you are planning a wedding. Tara C. Walnut Creek read more

Jill came referred to me by a coworker and I couldn't have been more happy! I used her "day of" wedding coordinator package. Jill welcomed any questions or vendor referrals I asked for during the year leading up to my wedding. It was very helpful! She was kind, professional, organized, and very detail oriented. For the entire planning process, I knew I was in good hands. Jill handled everything on the day of my wedding, and expertly handled a couple of issues that came up. I would recommend Jill in a heartbeat to any bride and groom! My friends and family all raved about her as well :) thank you Jill!! read more

There are literally no words I can offer to do justice for job that Jill performed as our San Francisco Presidio wedding coordinator. Without a shadow of a doubt, my decision to hire Jill three months before he wedding was THE best decision I could have made. I discovered Jill through our outstanding catering company, Aurora catering, and their referral to Jill was just another home run for them. Jill is THE person you want to lean on on the last weeks leading up to the event. I was able to meet with Jen multiple times to get details worked out prior to the event. Jill coordinated both the pick up and drop off of items that needed transported to from our Pacifica home to the SF Presidio. Her efforts were above and beyond what I expected, and flawlessly executed to the T. Jill coordinated the rehearsal dinner which was its own crazy party, that required serious leadership and take charge initiative. Moms, aunts, ladies and gentlemen alike respected her command in taking the lead to orchestrate the events/s, issuing direction and instruction to all parties. She was firm, clear, patient ....*exceptionally patient* with wedding parties and family members, beyond organized and friendly, while remaining calm and consistent along the way. I genuinely cannot recommend Jill enough - please do yourself an favor and do not labor over this decision. Hire Jill, and don't think twice about it. It will take 9000 lbs off your shoulders the second you meet her and *know* no one else can be trusted to do the job as flawlessly as Jill. read more

I am not sure I can sum up into words our appreciation for Jill. She did a wonderful job as our Day of Coordinator for our wedding last month. She has an amazing can do attitude. Instead of advising against, she helps creates a plan to make it work. She handled any shenanigans that occurred so that we were not worried with anything. She directed us the whole day, including to remember to eat and greet guests. She is amazingly organized, brings many years of experience to her work and was a joy to work with. I would highly recommend her to help coordinate a special day in which you will not be bogged down by details or worry. read more

Wedding in Oakland on October 1, 2016 We hired Jill for my wedding after enjoying working with her at my sister's wedding a few years ago. As an event planner by profession, I knew I wanted a day-of planner so I wouldn't obsess over every detail, but also knew I needed someone even better than me that I could trust. Jill was exactly this. As everyone else states, she is extremely professional, and personable. She has the unique ability to quickly come up with a solution during challenges and doesn't miss a beat. If there were conflicting vendors or other 3rd parties, she spoke to them with graceful authority, guiding them in her (our) direction. I was able to truly enjoy my wedding day, and didn't worry about a thing. She checked in with all the vendors for delivery, set-up, load out, etc, checked the room set up, set out our table numbers and favors, helped move items between rooms after the cocktail hour, and packed the car before the evening was over so my family didn't have to stay late to gather everything. Most importantly, throughout the evening she would grab my attention to update me on my role ("we should cut the cake in 10 minutes, so whenever you feel ready meet me by the table") so I didn't have to check the time or worry about anything except having fun and socializing with my guests. There was one problem at the church (church's fault) which she immediately handled, and the guests likely didn't notice. If there were any others, I didn't even know because she took care of it, and that's fine with me! read more

I had the pleasure of doing florals for an event that Jill had in Los Angekes and working with her was a breeze! I would absolutely work with Jill again! She is patient and most of all easy to work with! Jennifer read more

I can't even begin to explain what an amazing help Jill was to my husband and I at our 8/13/11 wedding. We booked her to do our "day-of" planning, but in preparation for that, Jill gave us tons of her personal time. She sat down with my mom and I for a long meeting, she contacted all of our vendors, she made the most amazing time-line, and even updated it a half dozen times or so (because things on my end kept changing!) She did it all with such a positive and professional attitude. There are just some people in the world who make you feel at ease when they enter the room-- and Jill is certainly one of them. She is the very definition of cool and collected. She's also peaceful, productive, concise, friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Honestly, I can't fathom what my wedding day would have been like if it weren't for Jill. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. And, if you're like me, and you aren't totally sure whether or not a day-of planner is actually necessary, I have to tell you- do it! Being able to enjoy your day without stress because Jill has it all under control is PRICELESS! 5 stars plus several more for Jill at Eventful Days! Thank you Jill! read more

Wedding May 28, 2016 Jill is a super star! Her calm demeanor and professionalism will calm any bride. She was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. She handled everything day-of, as the bride I literally didn't worry about one single thing! She directed all of our vendors, had everything set up, and kept us updated and moving along as the evening progressed. I also observed her working SO hard the whole night. From set up to clean up, I knew she was giving 110%, which was obviously so appreciated. I also felt like she had our best interest at heart when working with the vendors, making sure we got what we had agreed on with all vendors. There were a lot of moving pieces to our wedding, I could have never done it without her, and again I know she worked so very hard to make our event magical. If you are on the fence about hiring a coordinator, my advice is to do it -- and to hire Jill! Thank you, Jill :) read more

Jill exceeded my (high) expectations for day-of-coordinator services for my daughter's wedding. She's a great communicator, a meticulous planner, astonishingly helpful and pleasant, and was able to help the busy bride and groom make good decisions so their wedding day turned out just as they hoped. I recommend Jill of Eventful Day without reservation. She's efficient without being a machine, calm, pleasant, knowledgeable, and helps ensure that her client's wishes come true. Gold star. read more

Just had my wedding two weeks ago and was introduced to Jill through family and what a relief. She helped me out so much! Planning on a short amount of time, and also through the busy holiday season. She's very reliable and is great at communicating. We had more than a couple things spring up and she worked through them perfectly. The timeline she set up for the wedding worked so well that we never had to worry about what was next on our special day. We were left to have a good time because we put our full trust in her and it ended up being perfect like what we expected. I fully recommend Jill for any party planning you have coming up, she's incredibly friendly and will do an awesome job. Thank you Jill! read more

A wedding planner is one of those "perks" a lot of brides think they don't need, but in reality is such a vital necessity. I knew I needed the help of a day-of planner, (which in reality was a month-of planner) so I met with Jill, instantly clicked with her and trusted her with the responsibility of my wedding day. She really shone by taking the reins, finalizing details with vendors, leading the rehearsal, organizing the set up, and helping break down at the end of the night. She was a real life saver and after months and months of stress and planning on my part, it was so nice to hand it all off to Jill's capable hands and just sit back and enjoy my wedding. There was one small fire, but she handled it calmly and got us involved discreetly and it was handled without a hitch. Highly recommended! read more

Jill recently coordinated our wedding at Preservation Park in Oakland and did an amazing job. We felt so relieved that we found her right after our first meeting. All our stress about the wedding vanished right away! She is highly reliable and on top of everything. We were even running low on vodka during our reception and she managed to run to the store to pick some up while still keeping things running smoothly. We certainly couldn't have planned and executed our wedding plans without her. Jill is the best investment you can make for your wedding. Don't think twice about hiring her! read more

JILL IS THE BEST!!!! I started planning my wedding almost 2 years in advance. With this being said I did a lot of research for my vendors. Jill was the most reasonably priced for all she does. She met with me about once a month giving me list of things to get done. This was very helpful. She also refered me to vendors and created the timeline for the wedding. Very thorough! The month of the wedding she handled all vendors. The day of the wedding she handled everything. I was freaking out because we were short one bouquet. She said no problem and literally 3 minutes later came back with a bouquet she had made out of some of the flowers from the memorial vase. FANTASTIC! My level of freak out subsided and the rest of the wedding was great. Anyone who wants to just enjoy their day and not have to worry about a thing please book Jill. She is so organized and brought a calm to the wedding that neither me or my fiance could have had. Thank you Jill. read more

We got married on Sept. 17 and could not have asked for a better day. Jill was a HUGE part of that. Everything went smoothly and as planned. Since we live out of state, Jill was flexible in coordinating meeting times with us. She was extremely organized and professional and made a very detailed timeline for us to follow leading up to the wedding. Jill also coordinated with all the vendors, which alleviated a lot of stress for me. I can honestly say she allowed my husband and I to fully enjoy the big day and not worry about anything. I highly highly recommend Jill for wedding and/or event planning--you won't regret it! read more

Jill is an amazing professional and a lovely and energetic person. She was so organized and thoughtful - always one step ahead of any problem or our worries. Since we were planning long-distance for a rehearsal dinner in Sonoma, Jill was a life-saver. The dinner was catered outdoors in a redwood grove, so you can imagine the challenge we gave her. The evening was lovely and elegant. Just one example of her above and beyond? She stepped in when the florist was a no-show and at the last minute she designed and created little notes to attach to the pashmina favors - just perfect. read more

I have worked with Jill on multiple events, including my own wedding and several corporate events. She is incredibly easy to work with, really creative and full of ideas (both fanciful and practical), and helped us stick to our budget. I had her help me on the "day of" my wedding -- she knew exactly what I needed and was incredibly helpful during my little backyard wedding. She helped me figure out a few logistics before the big day, and then she was there with us all day for the actual wedding, making sure everything went smoothly. A couple of the corporate events were a bit hairy and she was incredible -- focused and calm, and helped us get the job done. She was incredibly professional and calm, and the events were perfect. Everyone was thrilled with the results. I would absolutely recommend her in any event situation! read more
