Con Carino Event Planning

From the very beginning, Vanessa made the entire planning process feel effortless. With less than a…read moreyear to plan our wedding, I was feeling overwhelmed, but Vanessa immediately stepped in and connected us with incredible vendors, including our DJ, mariachi, photographer, makeup artist, and more. Having trusted recommendations right from the start lifted a huge weight off my shoulders. She only recommends vendors she truly believes in and who will be the perfect fit for your vision. Throughout the planning process, we appreciated her professionalism, organization, and consistent communication. As the wedding day approached, her check-ins and attention to detail gave us so much peace of mind. We shared our vision for a fusion wedding, and Vanessa brought it to life beautifully. I cannot say enough about how amazing she was during our rehearsal and on the wedding day itself. I genuinely don't remember having to lift a finger on my wedding day. She thinks of every detail, anticipates potential issues before they arise, and always has a backup plan ready. Weddings can be chaotic, but I was able to fully enjoy every moment because I knew everything was in great hands. The number of compliments we received from our guests about how smoothly and seamlessly everything flowed was incredible. All thanks to Vanessa's hard work behind the scenes! Coming from a Hispanic family, it's common for relatives to step in and help coordinate different aspects of the wedding day. After experiencing what it was like to have Vanessa coordinate everything, our friends and family could not stop raving about how valuable it was to have a professional managing everything. Instead of worrying about timelines, vendors, or logistics, they were able to fully relax, be present, and enjoy the celebration to the fullest. That peace of mind was truly priceless. I am beyond grateful for everything Vanessa did for us. If I were planning another wedding tomorrow, she would be my very first call. I truly could not have done it without her, and I wholeheartedly recommend Con Cariño to anyone looking for an event coordinator who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond.

If you're looking for the perfect event coordinator, look no further! Vanessa has years of…read moreexperience and her expertise will ensure for a flawless event. I contacted Vanessa to help me plan my wedding. She immediately responded and set up an online wedding consultation to meet with me & my fiancée, hear all about our vision, our love story, and answer any of our questions. She even offered to stay and chat longer to make sure she had everything down. She immediately got to work and started looking for vendors and sent recommendations. Truly amazing to work with. Her dedication and work ethic are key contributors to making your dream event become a reality! I look forward to planning my next party with Con Cariño.

Even 6 months after our big day, we are still SO thankful for all the hard work Meg & her team went…read moreinto making our wedding perfect. Since my husband and I both have very demanding jobs and live in the Bay Area (while trying to plan a wedding at Saddlerock in Malibu), and we had a ton of family & friends which blossomed into a 250 guest wedding, we ended up booking the full service planning/design package, and we are so happy we did! Meg was able to magically coordinate all our vendor meetings into 2 consolidated trips to LA, and whatever wasn't figured out then, was discussed in our infinite (and infinitely helpful) chain of emails & Skype/phone chats during the year before the wedding! She pointed us toward amazing vendors who we wouldn't have otherwise found (we were especially thrilled with our DJ, florist, and videographer), and made sure to offer a variety of price points for each option. Meg took care of setting up all our spreadsheets and keeping us on track for those little details we wouldn't have otherwise thought about, but were more important than we realized. All the while, she worked closely with us to make sure each piece matched our vision and made our crazy ideas come to life -- including a flash mob & a bar trivia style game! During the rehearsal and on the day of, Meg & her team's positive attitude and attention to detail continued...even down to Meg pinning the veil on my head before the ceremony (when I had almost forgotten to put it on!) She made sure to keep the evening on time and organized, which with our guest count was like herding cats -- so we were extremely grateful. Our guests continue to talk about how great of a time they had and how much they enjoyed our wedding (and we agree!) Thanks to Meg & Events by M&M for truly making it all happen.

Meg was absolutely phenomenal. She pulled together a beautiful, seamless event in just a few…read moremonths--handling everything from vendor selection to execution with calm, confidence, and incredible attention to detail. She worked closely with us to stay within budget while maximizing impact in all the right places. Her eye for design and ability to prioritize what truly mattered made the decor feel thoughtful, elevated, and completely aligned with our vision. Even when unexpected issues arose (as they always do with events), Meg navigated them with grace and professionalism. Everything within her control was flawlessly executed, and we were able to fully enjoy the day knowing she had everything handled. We've had countless guests tell us it was the best wedding they've ever been to--and we couldn't agree more. So much of that is thanks to Meg's talent, dedication, and steady hand.

I contacted several event rental companies to provide chairs, tables and linens for a baby shower…read moreto be held in a park just down the street from us in Ventura. Cheers Event Rentals was very responsive to my inquiry and their prices were very competitive. The shower was only going to have about 35 people so it was a pretty small party and yet Cheers was very accommodating to our needs. Talking to Jessica on the phone was reassuring that all of the items were going to be delivered without any problems. Cheers came up with a great idea of delivering everything to the park in their trailer on Saturday morning so we could unload and then leaving the trailer so that we could load the chairs, tables and linens back into the trailer for them to pick up later. Since our event was small, all the other vendors were going to delivery the items to my house on Friday and pick up on Monday. This really saved us the trouble and time to move everything to and from our house on the day of the shower. We met Jessica at the park in the morning and everything worked out great with the convenience of having their trailer right there when we were done. Working with Jessica and Cheers Events was a very good experience and I would suggest contacting them if you are in need to rent items for your event. Our experience with Cheers was great and I'm sure yours will be too!!

Very responsive, easy to work with. Showed up when they said they would. They were also had…read morehelpful recommendations. We will use them again for our next event.

Wow -- we cannot recommend Time of Your Life Entertainment highly enough! We loved working with…read morethem so much for our son's bar mitzvah two years ago that hiring them again for our daughter's bat mitzvah was the easiest vendor decision we made. My daughter's party was absolutely LIT with DJ Snuppi at the helm. He brings such incredible, unique energy and truly knows how to make a party feel like the time of your life. Our family and friends packed the dance floor, and my daughter's friends had an absolute blast with the high-energy games and interactions DJ Snuppi led throughout the evening. Our phenomenal dancer, Sara, was back by special request for our second mitzvah, and she was amazing once again. Also, Lisa was an absolute dream to work with during the planning process -- professional, organized, responsive, and genuinely kind every step of the way. Everything ran seamlessly, from the LED dance floor to the montage presentation. We especially loved having my daughter's logo displayed on the screen throughout the event -- such a special touch that made the night feel so personalized. This team is truly the dream team. They know exactly how to create an unforgettable celebration, and we are so grateful to them for helping make my daughter's bat mitzvah such an incredible night. Highly, highly recommend!

We hired Joe and Time of Your Life for our annual Opening Day Parade for the Westlake Agoura Girls…read moreSoftball league. We needed to coordinate 47 teams, each having their own custom music for the parade. Joe made sure we were all set up and organized ahead of time. He met me a couple weeks beforehand at the location to make sure he understood our needs and the problems we had in the past so we didn't repeat them. On the day of the event, Joe was there plenty early to make sure everything was set up perfectly. During the event, he made sure everything was perfect and made adjustments on the fly. Would absolutely hire Joe and Time of Your Life again for this event and hope he will be available for us next year!

We just had our wedding this past weekend and wow our candy table was gorgeous. I don't have the…read moreprofessional pictures yet but I included one that one of our guests took. I told Raquel we wanted a rustic theme and sure enough, the candy table fit perfectly with our wedding decor. From beginning to end, Raquel was very easy to work with. She worked with me on my budget and was quick to respond to emails. The price is very reasonable for what you get. I would HIGHLY recommend Sweetest Touch Candy Buffet and will definitely consider hiring them for baby showers, bridal showers, etc in the future!

I hired Raquel to do the dessert table & backdrop for my sister's Nightmare Before Christmas themed…read moregender reveal party. I expressed to her that the reveal would be from the cupcakes and agreed on a deep blue icing to match the theme. Day of the event she was extremely late for the set up, showing up only 20 mins before the party and was still setting up when the guests arrived. After they finish setting up, she tells me that she didn't do the blue icing filling for the cupcakes so now I have nothing to reveal! I was furious! She didn't bother to use her table linen and left the existing one already on the table. We had to scramble and buy another prop to use for the reveal. I expressed my disappointment and that I wanted at least a partial refund but of course never heard from her again. She was also late picking up her equipment when we accommodated her to pick up the next day. For the amount paid, the service was truly lacking. If you're planning an event, go with a real professional instead.
