She listened to everything I wanted, took details notes which was huge for me, dealt with my bossiness, and made sure everything was exactly what I wanted. I didn't even know some of the issues we had at the venue until days later! She also saved the day when 3 uninvited people showed up and made sure they had seats and were comfortable. I loved everything Emilee did so much we hired her again for our upcoming reception (we had a small wedding first, now moving onto the party). I know she will make my visions and dreams come true once again! Jake and I thank you so much!!!

To their dismay, I have been able to confidentially respond, "Actually, everything went exactly according to plan and it felt like a pretty chill day!" This is because of Lynette Palacios. My mom and I planned my wedding together for 9 months and brought on Lynette at the 6-weeks-out-mark to be our coordinator. From the moment she joined the team, Lynette was prompt, organized, enthusiastic, and detail oriented. She graciously offloaded our work in the weeks leading up to the wedding so that my family and I could truly enjoy the celebrations without worrying about any logistics. On wedding day, Lynette handled it all: vendor arrival and setup, timeline management, table settings, chair arrangement, guest greeting-- all while constantly ensuring that the groom and I had a cocktail in our hands and all other needs met. She knew our grandparents' names and even held our grand entrance 5 minutes when she noticed that the groom's grandmother was in the restroom. She had eyes on it all. I cannot recommend Lynette's services enough. Because of her, I was able to be 100% present at my wedding, a gift which I consider to be priceless. Thanks so much for all your work, Lynette! You rock!

Cassie worked with us to customize our full planning package to be within our budget (meaning we didn't get all of the full planning services but most--and definitely the most critical). She met with us in person to work on mapping out our ideas and overall objectives, came with us on venue visits, joined us when we met our florist, found us the right photographer, and helped review all contracts. She even came along (her schedule and location allowed) to my hair and makeup trial since I'm her former life she did that too). She may have had some points where responses could've been quicker or we were a little late on receiving certain things, but I also knew that was likely since I couldn't be the only bride she'd be working with and would juggle priorities as needed. At the end of the day though, she really came through and went above and beyond. She was clutch! All of our vendors were so kind and fun--and amazing, and such great people. She was also able to negotiate rates with all of them too so we could stay within our budget. We all had a great time and I know it was because of a Cassie and Golden Dot Events.

I interviewed 4 of them and Cassie had such a beautiful and welcoming personality that when we were on the phone, I knew we had found the right person. Her prices were in line with others and she knew so much about vendors in South County that we felt we would be in the right hands. We were right! She organized everything and got so many personal touches just right, and we hardly did a thing. Thanks to Cassie and Golden Dot, my Mom had the perfect wedding at the Casino San Clemente. Thanks Cassie!

My husband…read moreand I were planning our wedding from out-of-state, so having someone local and familiar with the venue was a priority. Miya came highly recommended from our venue (Agape 1928), and picking her was one of the best decisions we made! She has a great network of people and vendors, and she had worked closely with many of our other vendors which was great to hear! During the initial planning we weren't sure about having videography, but Miya suggested an amazing videographer within our budget and we are so glad we went with her suggestion! Miya is incredibly organized and communicative. Any little question we had, she would know the answer to! She helped guide us through a lot of decisions and created a detailed timeline for the day and managed all the final details leading up. A few days before the wedding I had to change our rental order with some last minute changes and Miya had the update ready to go in a heartbeat! During the wedding we had a couple changes/hiccups to the timeline (as expected with any event), but she was super flexible and had the best suggestions to keep the day flowing perfectly. She is super sweet and helped us feel so grounded and present throughout the entire wedding day. A great coordinator really is the foundation for your wedding, and we are so grateful for Miya!

Throughout the planning process, she was always available with thoughtful recommendations, kept us organized and on track, and brought a great eye for wedding design. On the wedding day, she was calm, proactive, and completely in control--handling every detail and any hiccup that came up without us ever feeling it. She truly has a solution for everything. Because of Miya, we were able to fully relax and have the best day of our lives. We genuinely couldn't have done it without her. I would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding--especially in Orange County. Her familiarity with local vendors and resources makes the entire process seamless.

Working in luxury events myself at the Waldorf Astoria, I know firsthand how much happens behind the scenes to create a beautiful and seamless event. I knew I wanted to be the client for once and actually enjoy the celebration instead of managing every detail and Michelle allowed me to do exactly that. I shared a few ideas and the overall vision with her, and she completely understood what I wanted while still bringing her own creativity and expertise to it. She took my ideas, elevated them, and the final result was even better than I imagined. Every detail felt thoughtful, beautiful, and intentional. Beyond her talent, Michelle is organized, professional, calm, and genuinely cares about the people she works with. Being able to trust your planner enough to be present and enjoy your own event is priceless. I'm so grateful for everything she did to make such an important celebration for our family feel so special. I would hire Michelle again and again. Whether for an event in California or internationally. I just trust her. Because she genuinely cares and in luxury events or even weddings that goes a long way. Thank you again Michelle for the best night!!

I try to observe how they work with their employees and other vendors rather than watch the reaction from clients. I always think happy employees lead to very happy customers. In this case every team member worked well together even in the stress of the event as their was a definite time crunch because of strict venue rules. Everyone was supportive of each other and the results were supreme attention to detail and ecstatic customer/guest reaction. These guys worked very closely with us to ensure a smooth event and I could see that translated into how well the client was treated. Excellent service from beginning to end.

Being that our company name is called Gatsby Chocolate, I thought it would be perfect to have a Gatsby-themed party, and Unforgettable Events completely delivered. Every single detail from our logo being projected onto the floor, to our logo on the bar, to our personalized name plates, was absolutely exquisite. Tashianna and her team are SO detail-oriented, and that's something I truly appreciate. They thought of everything. The entire event looked so gorgeous. The color palette was exactly what I was imagining, and everything exceeded my expectations. Working with Tashianna was SO easy. She was super communicative, and if a problem arose, she handled it gracefully. She kept me calm/sane during the whole process. Originally, I was supposed to plan this holiday party by myself, but a couple weeks into it, I realized I needed professional party-planning help, so that's when we hired Unforgettable Events. Tashianna picked up right where I left off, and alleviated so much stress. She communicated with all the vendors, had a schedule for the day of, and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We truly couldn't have pulled this off without her and her team. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would hire her again in a heartbeat. She worked with our budget and found budget-friendly solutions that still looked high-end and luxurious. If you're thinking about hiring Unforgettable Events for a special event, just DO IT. You won't regret it. They're truly amazing, and your event really will be unforgettable.

From being cheery and upbeat to organized and managing all of the little details - I give Kristin an A+! One of the things that was most helpful about ReUp Design & Events was the connections to other vendors she has. Because of her knowledge, expertise, and negotiating skills, I was able to get amazing services within our budget. Literally, she introduced us to our florist and the ice-cream cart we used plus, she looked over every contract for the other vendors. Another priceless skill Kristin brought to our wedding was her ability to mind the details. I was at a venue (a family members house) that required an impossible breakdown of the two head tables that turned into the dance floor. Kristin handled it so well, that I didn't even see the transition happen! She also trouble shot every issue that may have come up so that in the end - my groom, mother and mother-in-law (and myself!) could just enjoy the day. Lastly, Kristin was so great about just checking in with me to see how I was doing and managing the stress that comes with planning a wedding. She would do it in a way that felt thoughtful and authentic and I really appreciated that. I have several friends that are recently engaged and Kristin's phone number is the first thing I pass them. She is amazing - and such a steal for her rates. I would 100% recommend her for planning any event that you have coming up.
