Christina I.

I love Satra! She did the most tremendous job planning my wedding from start to finish. Not only was the wedding itself dreamy and a total blast, but the work she did leading up to the big day made the process of planning a wedding absolutely pleasurable and worry free! She had a calm and meticulous demeanor that made her easy to trust with all of the details. She was also great to collaborate with because she responded quickly and thoroughly to my many, many emails. She has great design taste, and makes sure to highlight the bride and groom's tastes and personalities. For instance, my groom requested a "gansta" wedding cake, so Satra set us up with the most "gansta" bakery in SF! She was consistently spot on with her recommendations of vendors. I didn't feel the need to shop around. I almost always went with Satra's first pick for our taste and budget. I highly recommend enlisting Satra's help if you are planning a wedding in the bay area! I, for one, plan to hit Satra up for my next wedding...just kidding ;)

Dinner on the front veranda

We had our wedding at Villa Montalvo in June 2021. When we booked the venue the venue's first and strongest vendor recommendation was to hire Events by Satra for planning. It was by far the best decision we made! Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives, everything went so smoothly and turned out so beautifully! From our first call, I felt calmer! Satra helped us pick out all of our other vendors and every recommendation she gave was perfect. Particularly on things we didn't have strong opinions about like flowers and the DJ and those were some of the best parts of the day! We booked our date and started planning before the pandemic hit and were able to keep the original date with the original guest count for which we were incredibly lucky. We still had a lot of stress with the uncertainty with the pandemic. Satra was so calming and went above and beyond. She researched on-site Covid testing vendors and coordinated with the DJ to do virtual streaming of our ceremony. I also didn't have a ton of opinions about the details and I knew I could trust her opinions like the linens (she matched my bridesmaids perfectly!). She also had a great eye for the things that are worth doing like the lounge furniture (which looked amazing and the guests loved!) versus the things that no one notices (like a photo gallery in the library that most people wouldn't see). If you are on the fence at all, I'm telling you it's worth it!

Satra helped execute our beautiful wedding on July 6, 2013

See all

Picnic n Chill

For my 1K review milestone, I wanted to review a very memorable vendor that I had the pleasure of…read moreworking with for a very special moment in my life. I first discovered Events n Chill (formerly Picnic n Chill) on a CNBC segment and thought it would be a great idea for some sort of special event. When it came time to thinking of a way to propose to my then-girlfriend, Events n Chill was still bouncing around in my head so I looked into more details about their Proposal package. Although the cost is pretty steep, Events n Chill were very quick to respond with options, as well as addressing any additional questions I had. Appointments are booked and paid for through their website, and additional follow-ups and requests are quickly addressed through email. In addition to the package itself, they offer a variety of additional add-ons for additional costs. But even without any addition items, the "basic" setup that comes with your selected package is still gorgeous and personalized to your request. On the day of, you'll receive a text with a drop-pin with the GPS location of your picnic setup. Since it was a proposal and I obviously wanted it to be a surprised, they did an amazing job getting all the details of my request down including having a photographer that popped out of nowhere (she was very well hidden) right as I got down on one knee to propose. Queuing up the music as we approached the carpet. As well as personalized signage displayed and ready to go. Oh, and she said YES! Jocelyn did a really great jobs with the pictures, and was professional and engaging throughout. She was great in suggesting different poses, selecting areas and angles with better lighting, and making us feel at ease while she snapped away. The only complaint we had about the entire process was how long it took to eventually get all of our photos. While Jocelyn was quick to send a selection of photos she took that day, we noted there were several key shots that were omitted from the album provided. Follow-up emails and texts asking if she could release a few more pictures sadly went completely unanswered for over 2 weeks before thankfully, she responded and shared the entire portfolio of pictures taken that day.

Jocelyn and Coco were amazing people to work with! They definitely made the planning process super…read moreeasy with the vision I had for the baby shower I was throwing. Everyone was totally raving about it and can't wait to work with them again!

She makes you feel like you have known her for years. Clear and concise with what she wants, prompt responses, and a whole lot of fun. But after seeing her the event come to life, it was like we were transported into another universe. She has vision and drive. Hopefully this will not be the last time we work together!

If you're looking for a planner who brings not only a vision to life but infuses it with soul,…read moreheart, precision, and grace--look no further than Andrea of Mia Emma Love Events. I recently had the absolute pleasure of working alongside Andrea for an extravagant, Wicked-themed birthday celebration at the Grand Bay Hotel in San Francisco. As a DJ, I've been part of my fair share of complex productions--but this event? This one had layers. We're talking immersive design, multiple performances, theatrical moments, choreographed timing, lighting cues, and the kind of attention to detail that would make Broadway stage managers sweat. And yet--through every twist, change, last-minute curveball, and behind-the-scenes chaos--Andrea stayed calm, composed, and genuinely joyful. That smile never left her face. It wasn't just impressive; it was inspiring. What struck me most was Andrea's emotional intelligence and natural leadership. She wasn't just checking off a list--she was reading the room, checking in on vendors, comforting the family, and still had the foresight to ensure every beat of the evening landed with intention. For us as DJs, a successful event relies heavily on the planner's clarity, timing, and communication. Andrea excelled at all three. Her cues were crystal clear, her flexibility never compromised the bigger picture, and her collaboration felt seamless. It's rare to find someone who can hold both the creative and logistical sides of event production in perfect harmony. Andrea is that rare gem. And beyond the work, there's a real human connection there--a warmth that draws people in, makes vendors want to go above and beyond, and creates the kind of synergy that guests can feel, even if they don't see it. After this event, I'm not only grateful--I'm inspired. I genuinely hope to work with Andrea and Mia Emma Love Events more in the future. I believe that if we continue to collaborate, we could create experiences that are unforgettable, meaningful, and consistently next-level. Andrea, thank you for the trust, the kindness, the professionalism, and for being exactly the kind of event partner every creative hopes for. I'm honored to have been a part of this one--and I'm already looking forward to the next. With deep appreciation, DJ Brandon Beach
