My husband and I got married earlier this year in July, but we started the process of wedding planning over a year prior. Once we did a virtual introduction call with Stacy, it was a quick decision for us to know we wanted to work with her for our big day. From the start, Stacy's energy has always been both encouraging and affirming. Wedding planning is a time that is commonly stressful, but Stacy felt like our biggest ally the entire time. She respected all of our preferences, elaborated on our ideas so creatively, and protected our budget like it was her own. I can't imagine the amount of vendor correspondence leading up to the day, but her ability to manage everything so seamlessly confirms her level of expertise and professionalism. On top of being a logistical master, Stacy has a great eye and bright imagination when it comes to the decor and experience of a wedding. Once we shared our desired aesthetic, her input only elevated everything while maintaining cohesion and sophistication. As someone who gets decision paralysis, Stacy narrowed down all of our major vendor and decor decisions to a few quality options, and she took care of the rest. We were already impressed with Stacy's planning skills, but her day-of coordination was next-level. As the bride, I felt so at ease throughout our entire wedding weekend. I was especially blown away when she showed me - first thing in the morning - her mini printout of our entire wedding day's timeline that she kept cleverly tucked into her purse. The direction Stacy provided for our wedding party during rehearsal led to a beautiful ceremony, and we were truly able to enjoy being present with our guests while Stacy was overseeing all of the behind-the-scenes operations. Many of our guests later reported that it was the best wedding they have ever attended, and we owe all of that to Stacy's genius. If my husband and I could get married again, we would work with Stacy again in a heartbeat! read more

We had the pleasure of working with Stacy as our partial wedding planner, and we can't say enough wonderful things about her! From the start, Stacy was incredibly detailed and organized, respecting our wish to select our main vendors ourselves and to use much of our venue's existing design. Even though we didn't need the full design package, Stacy remained actively engaged-always quick to respond to emails (before the 3 month mark) and offer thoughtful advice as we navigated the vendor selection process. We faced some unexpected staffing changes with our venue and thanks to Stacy's calm and clear communication these transitions had little impact in our planning process. She helped us absorb so much of the stress that came with lost context and new contacts, ensuring that nothing fell through the cracks. Her ability to step in, get everyone up to speed, and keep the planning process moving forward was truly impressive. As we got closer to the big day, Stacy's expertise became even more apparent. About three months out, she took charge of organizing all our vendors and worked closely with us to ensure every contract was in order and all venue requirements were met. She helped us prioritize decisions to maximize our budget, always providing clear, practical advice about which details were most important and which we could let go of. This guidance made a huge difference in helping us focus on what really mattered and kept us from getting overwhelmed by the small stuff. Throughout the entire process, Stacy's super detailed approach, extreme organization, and calm, clear communication made everything feel manageable and even enjoyable. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was everything we hoped for. On the big day, the execution went so smoothly and we stayed on time with her gently guiding parents, older relatives, a large wedding party, and all of our vendors, which gave us the ultimate gift of a super stress-free wedding day and the time of our lives. We cannot recommend Stacy Lorelle enough! read more

Stacy was on the list of preferred planners for my venue, and of the three I interviewed, I knew right away that she was the right choice. From the flowers, to the color scheme, layout, linens, furniture, and food, everything was so beautifully designed and flawlessly executed. I truly couldn't have imagined a more perfect and stress-free wedding. My only regret is that I didn't hire her sooner! read more

Stacy gave us the *greatest* gift of all: a stress-free wedding day! As soon as we arrived at the venue for photos, we saw Stacy orchestrating all the vendors working on set up and knew that everything was going to go off without a hitch. Thanks to her preparation, everyone knew where they had to be and when, and my wife and I were entirely free to focus on the big night ahead of us. We hired Stacy as a partial planner, which meant that we worked together closely to find the right vendors, take care of contracts, and meet all of the venue's requirements. Stacy took so much stress out of the process by giving us the framework to make decisions, taking small things off our plate when we didn't have strong opinions, and making sure our entire team of vendors was on the same page about every important detail. Stacy's organizational skills and planning expertise are next-level, and it truly felt like there were no problems she couldn't solve for us. Case in point: a few days before the wedding, I heard from one of our vendors that they wouldn't be able to meet one of the venue's insurance requirements and started to worry that things might fall through at the last minute. I immediately called Stacy and she told me exactly what I needed to hear: "don't worry, I'll handle it." I had worked with Stacy long enough at that point to know that when she said she would handle something, it would get done, and that call was all it took to make my worries disappear and allow me to go back to enjoying our wedding week. Stacy was very responsive, thoughtful, and generous with her time during the planning process. If you're looking for a planner, we highly recommend working with Stacy -- we're truly grateful to have found her! read more

I worked with Stacy and Sofia for our wedding at the Berkeley City Club and I couldn't have been more happy with the services they provided. They were organized and on top of everything! The day of the wedding was smooth and most importantly fun! I can't recommend They So Loved Events more! If you are in need of a responsible, professional and thoughtful event planners look no further! read more

Stacy was a godsend! I reached out to her in panic as my original plans fell through completely when our original venue in Maui announced they'd remain close due to COVID 6 weeks out from my scheduled wedding date venue. When I told her what happened, she calmly and confidently assured me everything would be alright. Stacy hit the ground running and was so patient with me as we discussed my inspo boards. She took charge of vendor discussions, but always kept me in the loop and took her time to answer all my questions (i.e. what the heck is a charger and do I need it? :)). On the days leading to my wedding, she kept us organized without micromanaging - truly something I appreciated after the ups and downs of COVID. Stacy's true magic showed through on the day of my wedding. She worked with all vendors (who also had nothing but great things to say about her), managed all our speakers, and stayed on time with everything. Any hiccup that came up seemed to magically work itself out, but we all knew it was Stacy solving everything. She single handedly orchestrated the best wedding I could ever wish for through pandemic circumstances I would never wish a bride to go through. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I can't recommend Stacy and They So Loved Events highly enough. We had a large wedding this Fall season with a fair amount of complex needs, and Stacy was so helpful (and prompt!) in guiding us through every step of the way to achieve our vision. I don't know where we would have been without her connections with florists, event signage, videography and more, all of which were experts. There are so many aspects of a wedding we never even considered, and Stacy had already perfected the science of it all. She is level-headed and organized beyond belief (the schedule of events she created for the day was a work of art!). On the day of the wedding, Stacy took care of any problems without any need to even involve us, be it finding a replacement reader at the ceremony for a sick relative or laying down the law with a vendor who had forgotten to customize a part of the dancefloor. We are so thankful for her and the They So Loved team. If you can work with Stacy, I highly recommend you do so! read more

We booked Stacy for partial planning for our July 2023 wedding at the Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay, and I cannot emphasize enough that it was the best decision we ever made!! Even though I'm a pretty organized person, planning a wedding is so overwhelming. Stacy helped us feel super supported throughout the whole process. She provided a great planning checklist, recommended the best vendors, and was so thoughtful about remembering every little detail so that nothing was overlooked. She was also intentional about asking for any cultural traditions/considerations, which I really appreciated. Throughout the whole process, Stacy was so easy to communicate with, whether through text or email. Check in calls with her always put me at ease when I was feeling overwhelmed, and she helped us make sure nothing was missed since she knew our venue inside out. Even before our wedding, our experience during the planning process was already so great that I recommended her to one of my best friends who is planning a wedding reception in SF! Ultimately, I was able to fully enjoy our wedding day, not needing to worry about anything because I knew that Stacy was going to take care of everything. Our day ran so smoothly because of her (and/or she was so good at addressing any issues that we didn't notice!). For being a generally type A person, I mean it when I say that Stacy can absolutely be trusted with your wedding, and that it will make such a huge difference in your planning experience. I can't thank her enough for the peace of mind she gave us and our families during our wedding. If you're on the fence, please do yourself a huge favor and book Stacy! You will thank yourself later :) read more

Stacy and Sofia were THE BEST team!! We worked with They So Loved for month-of services, and it was the perfect amount of support for us as a couple who had lined up all of our other vendors. They were also helpful in the months leading up to the day, sending timely reminders and suggestions for each part of the planning process. When they sent us the VERY thorough 3-month-out checklist, we knew we would be in good hands. Stacy was incredibly communicative, available, and knew our venue and the run-of-show inside and out. She created an extremely detailed timeline that was tweaked and perfected in the weeks leading up to the big day. We were able to focus 100% on enjoying our wedding day, and it went perfectly from start to finish! THANK YOU Stacy and Sofia! read more

My wife and I were so lucky to have the opportunity to work with Stacy. She gracefully and thoughtfully guided us through the planning process, despite unprecedented circumstances that 2020 created. Our wedding on 5/8/21 surpassed our expectations and was more beautiful and successful than we ever could have imagined. The event was compliant with all CDC guidelines without sacrificing style or experience. One of the main reasons we chose Stacy was her design aesthetic. Our directive was to keep it minimalist, modern and use as little color as possible. She took our vague and ever changing directive and created the most beautiful design concept. It felt super modern, romantic, contemporary and impactful. Stacy is kind, enthusiastic and creative with both design and budget. She was great at finding ways to stay in budget and was incredibly resourceful. Her organization is unparalleled and everything we did was timely and thoughtfully carried out. They So Loved Events helped us to create the best and most beautiful day of our lives and we can't recommend Stacy enough! read more

I highly recommend They So Loved Events - Stacy & Sofia - who were our Day-of-Coordinators for our June 3, 2022 wedding at the Redwood Grove at UC Berkeley Botanical Gardens and reception at Berkeley City Club. I recommend TSLE because my husband and I had THE BEST TIME EVER at our wedding. We were relaxed and giddy with love. We laughed during our photos. Everyone made it to our ceremony on time (via shuttle). We had a fun and special ceremony. We (& our guests) made it back to our cocktail hour and reception (via shuttle). There were incredible toasts, dinner, cake-cutting and dancing all night. Our guests knew where to sit and picked up favors. Our extra cupcakes and cake were packed away safely. Our personal items were in our room when we got back. Our vendors were tipped. ETC. At the end of the night we (and all of our guests) left happy and exhausted. Simply put - we did not need to think about ANYTHING logistical!!! THIS is what you want and need for your own wedding and the only way you can have that is by hiring the best wedding coordinator - ahem - They So Loved Events. Extras: Stacy is just a truly great human. She was the third prospective coordinator I spoke to and I am so glad I did because she blew the competition out of the water. She did not rush our initial consultation (as did the others) but instead was friendly and patient and took a lot of time to get to know me, listen to me, ask questions and give me advice on things that I should think about. Vendors - if I hadn't yet picked out a vendor, Stacy provided me with a list of quality options and a diverse range of pricing (this is how we came by our amazing hair & makeup artists). Questions & the details - Stacy was super responsive to my one-off random questions and extremely organized. Our site visit and rehearsal were seamless and of course, I already mentioned, we had the best time ever at our wedding. read more

We worked with Stacy for just under a year with her full planning services for our 2 day / 2 ceremonies Indian-American weddings. From the beginning we had no idea what we were doing, but after looking through her instagram and a first get-to-you know you call, she put us right at ease. We provided Stacy some general guidance with things like a joint Pinterest board, but very little additional direction. She took the reins so well! For things we weren't interested in deciding on (e.g., what the silverware should be) she made beautiful design choices. And for the things we were more opinionated about, Stacy would do all the work to narrow down to a few options to present to us, along with cost, and her personal experience/recommendations with each vendor. This made it so much easier to make the million decisions that came along with wedding planning. She handled alllllll the vendor & venue appointments and hours of conversations....saving us so much time and effort! The fact that she had lots of experience with doing Indian weddings in the past was a great bonus for us. We trusted Stacy fully, and do not regret the decision to work with her at all! Each wedding event was so beautiful, and we were blissfully unaware of anything that went wrong. Sofia joined us as an extra pair of hands at our weddings, what a sweetheart! Very happy with Stacy's calm demeanor, great eye for design, and connections with trusted vendors. Would highly recommend! read more

Stacy was so helpful as we dealt with the ebbs and flows of the pandemic. Even while dealing with many other couples dealing with scheduling, rescheduling...and rescheduling again....she made us feel like a priority and always got back to us quickly to answer our questions. When our vendor management + caterer changed hands due to COVID-19, she took it all in stride, kept us calm, and made sure we were on track with planning and organization, despite it feeling like a chaotic mess with all the changes! In the end, the day went off without a hitch, in huge part thanks to Stacy's communication with the venue and her detailed schedule. She also had great recommendations and knows an awesome circle of vendors. Thank you Stacy for rolling with the punches and keeping everything so smooth for us! read more

Like many of the 2020 couples we had to push our summer wedding from Aug 2020 to July 2021. One would think that would be the biggest hurdle for us but 2021 threw even more challenges our way as we found ourselves re-planning as new parents amidst closed borders for a good chunk of our guests and a growing Covid variant. I don't think we would have kept as sane as we did without Stacy. She was a true rockstar going above and beyond to guide through those challenging months. Stacy has impeccable style and taste and really helped us bring our wedding vision to life. Even as there were last minute changes the day of Stacy knew how to pivot quickly without sacrificing our vision for the day. But most importantly, Stacy is kind, thoughtful, and the type of person you want in your corner on one of the most important days of your life. Stacy, we never could have done it without you! read more

Working with Stacy and TSLE was a breeze! We didn't have a particular vision for our wedding going into it and Stacy's expertise was so helpful in figuring out what elements were most important to us for our big day. I can't count the number of times during the planning process where a vendor would ask us who our coordinator was, and upon hearing we were working with Stacy, whatever issue or problem they were concerned about seemed to melt away. The reputation and trust Stacy has built in the industry is apparent and made everything so much easier for us. We got to enjoy our wedding day stress-free with how smoothly everything went due to Stacy's careful and thoughtful planning. read more

Stacy was originally planning our November 2020 wedding, we ended up having to postpone to ensure that family could be there. Stacy was so understanding and coordinated the new date with all our venders. Amazingly, she was able to ensure that all our venders were able to make our new date of November 2021. We were grateful that she only required a new contract to move our wedding. Stacy ensured that every detail of our wedding was perfect, even going as far as picking up and returning the rose gold flatware which wasn't available at the company that all our other rentals were from. Stacy was able to ensure that everything ran smoothly and all the details were perfect! read more

Lorelle Events - Wedding set up. - Party & Event Planning Near Me - San Francisco, California

From day 1, Stacy was nothing short of incredible in planning our wedding. Before we met Stacy, we had a date, a venue and the goal of throwing an amazing party for our friends and family. Her organization, planning and attention to detail allowed us to enjoy our wedding AND the planning process, rather than stress over the details of our wedding weekend. She remained incredibly professional, always quick to respond to emails- nudging us as needed, and always available for a last minute call or text if we had a question or concern. In the lead up to our wedding, she took time to understand our vision, our priorities, our budget, and used that to provide us with options that fit our style for each vendor. Before we even spoke to the vendors, we knew they were available and had a quote, because she would check availability and price out each vendor for us. When we were able to narrow down our choices, she took the time to set up interviews with those vendors, helping to facilitate each call. We were planning our wedding during the busiest time of year for both of us at work and having Stacy on our team was truly a lifesaver. During the process, she really made it a priority to align our style and to provide insight into different details of the wedding. Something that sets Stacy apart is that while she is an event planner, she is also a designer. She has an artist's eye along with a keen sense of organization, budget management and follow through. It was so fun working with her to co-design our tablescape, signage, ceremony back drop and florals. Stacy provided input to make sure every last flower was perfect. On our wedding day, Stacy was a calming influence. She was able to guide the wedding seamlessly from the background, without imposing on us or our guests. She kept everything organized, on-time, and made sure all of our vendors were taken care of and in a position to succeed. We were both relaxed the whole night and were able to enjoy every part of our wedding because of Stacy. My mother-in-law throughout the process would say "How does anyone do this without a Stacy?" and I have to say, following our wedding I can't imagine it turning out as well as it did without her. Following our experience working with Stacy, whenever a friend getting married asks for advice on the wedding planning process, my first piece of advice is always "get a wedding planner like ours." read more

Stacy is the calm collected person you want running the show on your big day! After having our wedding I couldn't imagine how the night would've gone with out her and her team. There are so many moving parts to a wedding that you never think of and she really takes on an advisor role during the planning process. She never pushed expensive extras but will highlight items she thinks you should consider and I really appreciated that! I highly recommend working with her she's a total rockstar! read more

I got to work with Stacy for a women's retreat and she killed it. Her design style and ability to stay calm under pressure was exactly what we needed! I can't wait to work with her again for all of my events!!!!! read more

The best day of my life is MY WEDDING DAY! My husband and I decided early on to have a small (25 ppl), intimate, destination wedding in beautiful San Francisco. Let me start by saying planning a wedding is kinda a big deal (no matter how small or large) and then living 500 miles from where you want to get wed, well, yea, kinda an even bigger deal... And that's when we hired Stacy at They So Loved Events to take all our big deal bride & groom ideas and bring them to life as well as be our day of wedding coordinator. Stacy's organization, guidance/suggestions around our vision and ideas, emotional/mental support (to ensure our family members enjoyed our day and didnt fuss with the details), to helping us stick to our budget (negotiating corkage fees days before our wedding), down to the final execution was flawless. From start to finish Stacy kept our day on track and allowed us to sit back relax and see our wedding vision come to life. City Hall ceremony, CableCar drive to iconic sights in SF, Reception in a private personalized decorated event room at Paragon Restaurant....well that's a lot to pack in a few hours and it all happened gorgeously. Our day was a success because Stacy not only did what we hired her to do but she genuinely loves what she does and that shows through her work. If I could figure out how to give more than 5 stars I would. :) Hire Stacy for all your big deal moments! read more

Admittedly, my husband and I knew nothing about wedding planning before we got engaged. So we hired Stacy at They So Loved Events to help us pull together a memorable ceremony and celebration for us, our families, and many of our friends in Berkeley. Stacy did an amazing job in helping us navigate through meetings with vendors, contracts, family dynamics, and helping us brainstorm unique solutions for issues that arose throughout the planning process. She ended up doing a lot of our design work (especially for table landscapes) and really helped set the stage for our ceremony in our local church. Stacy is also always very responsive to suggestions or questions, and really quick to respond. We loved that she maintained a Pinterest Design board specifically for our wedding, so we could all share ideas and comment. From the wedding rehearsal through the clean-up after our reception, Stacy had everything absolutely covered. Thanks to her none of our family or bridal party members had to worry about anything other than getting dressed (especially since she and our photographer made sure we made it to the church on time). Everything was very well organized, and it was wonderful to know that we had someone to watch the clock and work directly with all of our vendors so that we could enjoy our guests, and even eat dinner! Overall, we loved working with Stacy at They So Loved Events through the entire process of planning our wedding! It's impossible to overstate how valuable her expertise was in keeping everyone happy, organized, and sane through such a potentially stressful time. read more

I highly recommend Stacy! If you are looking for a dedicated, thoughtful, supportive and nimble wedding planner with incredible design vision she is the one. She went above and beyond to bring our day to life - especially during the pandemic which meant dealing with many, many changes and ultimately the need to create a whole new version of our day. After working with us seamlessly for over a year to plan our large wedding, we ultimately had to cancel it and she helped us through the transition with all our vendors which was so amazing. Knowing she was there to support us kept the light on at the end of the tunnel during this unprecedented time - I truly couldn't have managed without her. We ended up having a civil ceremony/celebration day and the way she brought everything together in our apartment and around our neighborhood was more than I could have ever imagined! She had ideas that I didn't even know were possible and I'm so thankful for her vision and direction. She coordinated the day seamlessly and I was so happy she was there to ensure everything ran on schedule, but also more than just organization, having her presence there was so calming and reassuring. Even with everything going on in the world we ended up having the most beautiful, joyful and special day that we will cherish forever. With so much gratitude - thank you Stacy!! read more

We are members of the TSLE fan club after having worked through COVID wedding postponements and plenty of stress along the way. Stacy is very calm, organized and thoughtful, and is able to quickly understand and support the vision of an event (even as things change monthly). Even on a phone call the night before the event, she stayed flexible and calm as we talked through an unexpected change. We loved having her and her assistant (Rachel) with us for our big day and felt fully supported every step of the way. Our friends and family also had great things to say about They So Loved Events and their ability to take over the day-of and let us just enjoy every moment. We had a very fun and joy-filled day, and we felt great knowing that things were in Stacy's hands! read more

Ashley Patrick of TSLE was our day-of-wedding coordinator- and we absolutely loved working with her! Ashley is great- she is detail oriented in the best way, so responsive and easy to talk to, and a great listener. In all the craziness that was wedding planning, it was so relieving to have someone with such a calming demeanor guiding us through the process. She was very responsive and such a resource, even months before the wedding. On our wedding day, she took care of anything and everything, it was such a relief not having to worry and to just enjoy the moment! She kept everything on schedule and made it all look super smooth- even when some of the other vendors showed up late.We can't imagine having done this without her! Thank you Ashley! read more

This review is long overdue ! We truly could not have made our day happen without Stacy and her team. Our total head count was about 55 so we were on the fence about needing a wedding coordinator. I'm here to tell you - it does not matter how small your wedding is you will want someone else in charge on your day ! She did not pressure us during the interview process (we interviewed quite a few of planners) . I knew I wanted to hire her once I heard her calming voice- something I knew I would need planning a wedding during a pandemic. Stacy has well developed relationships with every kind of vendor in the Bay Area, which was an immense help! She is very quick to answer emails/texts. Having her handle the delayed responses from other vendors (everyone is crazy busy with the delayed weddings) really put me at ease . Stacy truly thought of every detail and honestly saved us money with her tips and tricks . I was completely oblivious to anything that might have gone awry on our wedding day because Stacy was behind the scenes ensuring all things were taken care of . And let me tell you once I did my first look of our venue set up - I literally almost cried . Her vision is perfection . Stacy and her team were a dream to work with. I would sincerely recommend Stacy and They So Loved Events to my dearest friends. read more

Stacy is an amazing wedding planner and coordinator. We had hired her for a 1 month wedding coordinator and we were so happy we did! There are so many wedding planning logistics and details that couples can get so easily lost in. Stacy kept us grounded and on task throughout the planning process, and was so accommodating, communicative, and understanding throughout the pandemic rescheduling process. On our wedding day, she was detail orientated, calm, and collected, seamlessly orchestrating a beautiful event so that we could really enjoy our wedding day! We would highly recommend her! read more

We felt so lucky that we found THEY SO LOVED and partnered with Stacy and Ashley for our wedding. We were worried about having a destination wedding and being foreigners who were not familiar with the western wedding process. Stacy and Ashely helped us walked through every single planning detail and help us found all the best vendors in CA. We had everything perfectly planned for a May 2020 wedding at the Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay. However, we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic. After reopening, Stacy helped us organized and rescheduled everything to a new date and a format that complied with local health measures. Our guest number dropped to 16 due to international travel restrictions, but it didn't stop us from having the best day of our life. It has to be the best micro wedding ever! Thank you so much for helping us, especially during this challenging time. We wish to work with you again in the future to plan other celebrations! read more

My team and I worked with Stacy for a wedding, and I was honestly really impressed with her level of organization and timeliness. I have been in the industry for several years, and it is rare that an event planner sends out a timeline 3 weeks in advance to all the vendors. I was incredibly impressed by the high level of necessary detail and communication with Stacy. The wedding she planned at the Legion of Honor was flawless and stunning! I look forward to working with Stacy for many future events! My team and I applauds you, Stacy, for your AWESOME work!!! read more

I don't know what we would have done without Stacy! Our wedding planning was not a smooth process to say the least, but Stacy was there to help us out every step of the way. When we first met with Stacy, it only took one meeting to know that we had to hire her. You can tell after only a quick conversation that she is hardworking, efficient, and passionate about her work. We hired her for the "month of" planning, as we as the "style assistance," which was one of the smartest things we did. She was available by phone/text/email during the entire year of planning, and she always had suggestions or recommendations, whether it was for vendors or for table designs. Her collaborative Pinterest board was extremely helpful, and we were able to completely curate our wedding (from scratch) using her board and style ideas as inspiration. As I mentioned before, our wedding planning process was not easy, and our venue contract alone was 17 pages. But never fear, Stacy was the most organized person out of all of us, with every contract labeled and organized in her giant folder. Every contract was picked through, and she present at every important meeting. Her insights and opinions were extremely valuable to me, and I appreciated her guidance throughout the year. 30 days before the wedding she sent us detailed documents regarding the wedding, and conducted a very thorough walk through at the venue with all of the vendors. She handled all communication with vendors and was willing to take on ANY duty or task that I sent her way. She could not have been more reassuring when it came to problems that arose. For example, when our DJ cancelled on us right before the wedding, she had a new DJ lined up in a matter of 24 hours. Our wedding was perfect; it truly was the best day of my life. Even if there were some issues that day, I was completely unaware because kept to our day-of schedule to the MINUTE (no joke, not a single thing ran late that day). All of our vendors constantly praised Stacy's work ethic and how detailed all of her schedules/timelines were. We honesty didn't have to think about a single thing that day. I probably could go on and on about Stacy's incredible work, but hopefully I've made my point clear: she is one of the most hardworking and efficient human beings I've ever met in my life. She was a pleasure to work with, always had a good attitude, and honestly saved our butts when it came down to the final month. We owe her so much for our incredibly perfect wedding! read more

Stacy was truly the MVP of our wedding. She introduced us to amazing vendors, let us know when to and when not to splurge, and helped us create the wedding of our dreams. Throughout our planning process we always felt at ease and confident that Stacy had our back and would guide us through all the decision making to make sure we would have what we wanted. She is so good, my mom who always likes to be in control said, "I trust Stacy, I'll just let her decide." Leading up to the wedding, Stacy knew that my Vera Wang would be complicated to bustle and came to the last fitting to make sure she would know how to bustle after the ceremony (thank goodness she did). For the wedding day she brought 2 assistants (Colleen and Natalie) and everyone at the wedding complimented us on how smooth everything went! She took on all the requests of family and wedding party, so that my husband and I wouldn't have to be stressed about it, all with a smile and sweet attitude. We are so thankful we found They So Loved Events to be a part of our important day. Really our best day ever! There is no one else my husband and I could recommend enough. read more

If there was a possibility for 6 stars, Stacy would deserve it. Stacy and I worked together for practically a year and a half planning my wedding. I'm having trouble figuring out what I want to say because all I really want to do is scream with joy and excitement at how phenomenal she is. Saying that Stacy is patient, kind, professional, and fun to work with is truly an understatement. She is the type of wedding planner that every bride dreams of. Her endless list of ideas, references, planning tips, etc. is something that should be memorialized as "this is how it's done". Our wedding was on July 9th, and I am still in awe of how smoothly everything went. Not a single glitch in sight. Stacy (and her day of assistant Adrienne) were like seamless butterflies floating through the day, putting every little touch into the wedding and putting everyone at complete ease. She is unbelievably organized, the most genuine and kindest person, and will fix your problem immediately, and think of everything that you have forgotten. Example: I bought a ton of white, silver and gold pens to use for our black paged guest book and completely forgot to give them to her. But what did Stacy already have on her?? A gold pen!! Why?? No idea. But the fact that she thought of everything, including the rare need for a gold pen saved the day. (I could go on about all the other magical Mary Poppins style things she had on her for the day of, but it would take me perhaps all of Yelp to write about them.) Stacy is a gift. She will make all your wedding dreams come true, and you will want to be her best friend when it is all over. I cannot say enough things about her, and if you are reading this, as a bride, looking for a potential wedding planner - then please just STOP looking. I promise, Stacy is as good as it gets. read more

We worked with Stacy as our month-of wedding coordinator for our March 2019 wedding. I was immediately impressed with how organized, thorough, and responsive she is. Stacy helped us with vendor recommendations and advice in the year before our wedding, and helpfully checked in with us along the way to make sure we were on track. Her expertise in working with our venue was also invaluable to us, and she worked with our caterers to create the perfect floor plan and event flow. When the time came to hand off my plans in the last month before the wedding, I felt confident that our wedding was in Stacy's capable hands. She ran our rehearsal the day before efficiently. On the day of, she made sure all of the details were in place, skillfully managed the flow of the day, and made our wedding go off without a hitch. I wholeheartedly recommend hiring Stacy for wedding coordination! read more

Stacy exceeded our expectations with her professionalism, ease of communication, and support. Our wedding could not have gone any smoother without her help. She was able to accomplish what we wanted most, which was to make sure we enjoy our special day and not have to worry about a thing. Five stars for perfect coordination and expertise! My fiancee and I hired Stacy to help with the day-of coordination, which included a very very very helpful 30 days of support before the wedding. During our first meeting, we discussed what we were interested in doing for our wedding and what we were hoping she can help us with to accomplish. We already had an idea of what our theme wanted to be but we were not sure of how to exactly put it all together. Stacy listened to all our needs and concerns and answered all our questions. We loved how she was very attentive and genuine during our first interaction. After meeting with several other wedding coordinators, we finally decided to go with Stacy because we loved how responsive she was with her communication, which was a characteristic we truly appreciate! It gave us a lot of confidence that we can count on her because there's nothing worse than not being able to get a hold of a vendor during crunch time. Stacy impressed us with how well she helped with preparing for wedding day. She was very proactive in ensuring that we checked off everything in her pre-wedding checklist. We really liked the fact that she coordinated with the other wedding vendors to make sure that they all received the most up-to-date wedding timeline. For the wedding rehearsal, Stacy was quick and efficient at making sure everyone in the bridal party knew where to be and when. Definitely appreciated that she encouraged everyone to contact her directly if they had any questions by offering her cell phone number. Like an emergency hotline! On the day of the wedding, we were so glad that we did not have to worry about everything being set up on time and making sure vendors were where they needed to be. She had an inventory list set up of all our personal belongings, including things like USB sticks for our slideshow and music, cake cutting utensils, etc. It worked out brilliantly because you quickly realize how hard it'd be to keep track of dozens of personal items without doing something like that. It's the small things you do that really do count!! All this attention to detail and ability to keep the show going allowed us actually ENJOY our wedding day. Which is why we are so glad Stacy was there to help us out. read more

Stacy is an exceptional planner and coordinator! My now wife and I hired her to help coordinate our wedding a year before the wedding. I am a designer myself, and very organized so I wanted to do a lot of the planning myself, but was worried about finding someone who could take my planning and bring our wedding to life. Throughout the time leading up to the wedding whenever I had a question Stacy was there for us and totally understood my need to explain each and ever little detail. When we got closer to the wedding date Stacy was there for everything we needed. I truly had complete faith that everything would go perfectly in her hands. It was hard for me to hand over everything I had planned for our wedding, but with Stacy I knew everything would be wonderful, I trusted any decision she would make. Our wedding venue was new to being a event space and we did have some hiccups with the venue, but Stacy helped, and calmed us no matter how big or small our concerns. When the wedding day arrived we were at total ease knowing Stacy was at the venue taking care of everything, and when we arrived I was thrilled, it looked gorgeous. Stacy took all our ideas and planning and brought them to life plus more. She and her assistant (Colleen) made sure everything went smoothly and that my wife and I had nothing to worry about. We loved having her involved in the process, and having her there on our big day! Our wedding day simply would not have been as amazing without her guidance and coordination. We highly recommend her! read more

We used Stacy and her team for our May 2018 wedding at the Ritz Carlton in San Francisco. Hiring Stacy was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding planning process. We would hire her again in a heartbeat. We originally met Stacy when we were interviewing planners. We could tell immediately that she was kind, calm, and easy to get along with. We ended up hiring Stacy as a month-of coordinator, but to be honest, she helped a ton in the many months leading up to our wedding. Stacy cultivated a list of vendor recommendations and sent us vendor suggestions that she thought fit well for us. Each month, she checked in to see how planning was going and to offer advice. And anytime we got stuck on something or had a question on how to proceed, she would respond quickly and offer to hop on the phone. In the month leading up to our wedding, Stacy became even more involved. She handled all of our vendors, created a detailed timeline, and reminded us of anything we might be missing. There were many places where she went above and beyond. For example, we had ordered linens from a vendor, not realizing that they had a connection to Stacy and we should have ordered through her to get a vendor discount. Without us even asking, Stacy contacted the vendor to see if she could get her discount applied to our order - and she did! Where Stacy completely blew our expectations out of the water was the day of the wedding. She just gets *ish done. She is very detailed oriented, and so everything that we had planned was perfectly set up just as we had envisioned it. We had some issues with other vendors (e.g., our florist), and Stacy and her team jumped in to make sure that they had set up everything how they we supposed to. Our wedding was fairly complicated (a large wedding, with a lot of vendors, and with a Hindu ceremony in the morning, lunch, Western ceremony, reception), and Stacy handled it with ease and expertise. Stacy was completely reliable and on top of things. She knows what she is doing. She responds to emails quickly. She remembers when you tell her things and takes and keeps detailed notes. Another reviewer noted that Stacy is "unbelievably organized" and I could not agree more. After hearing horror story after horror story of our friends' wedding planner issues, we feel so lucky to have found Stacy. HIRE HER. She is simply the best. read more

Stacy was truly an amazing day-of coordinator for our recent wedding, and we could not be happier with our decision to hire her. Our venue required that we have a day-of coordinator, which we might not have done otherwise, but we are VERY glad we did. She is extremely organized and professional and good at her job, but also a genuinely sweet person. Her calm, no-nonsense presence made us feel like we were in good hands throughout the planning process, and on the day of everything ran smoothly and turned out more beautiful than we could have imagined. Stacy first met with us for coffee to talk about plans for the wedding, and outlined what her role would be as a day-of coordinator. We had already booked many of our vendors and done a lot of planning ourselves, but it was great to have her as a sounding board to make sure we weren't forgetting anything. She also made herself available by email to answer questions (Do we really need to do wedding favors? What is a fair price for hair and makeup in the Bay Area? etc.) as well as make suggestions about what vendors to hire. We also did a walkthrough of the venue with her, during which she asked if there was anything we wanted changed and made suggestions about where to place everything, etc. As the day approached, Stacy drew up a timeline for us (a task that would have been extremely daunting on our own), and contacted all our other vendors directly, telling them when to arrive and making sure everyone was on the same page. The day before, she ran our rehearsal for us and had many helpful suggestions about how to do things. On the day of, she and her assistant did tons of things to help set up, like putting place cards on all the tables, setting out the welcome table, putting up miscellaneous decorations, etc., and she was also there to answer any questions vendors had as they arrived. The wedding itself and the reception went off entirely without a hitch, and we were even running ahead of schedule most of the time. Stacy even made sure my husband and I each got a glass of champagne and had some moments to ourselves right after the ceremony, and also made sure we had time to eat during the reception. At the end of the night, Stacy and her assistant made sure that all sorts of random things made it to the right place and did not get lost. Overall, our wedding was executed flawlessly and we received so many compliments about how beautiful and fun it had been. Stacy definitely helped make the event an overwhelming success, and we were remarkably calm and worry-free the day of, confident in the knowledge that if any problem arose Stacy would be on it. Thanks for making our wedding experience truly incredible, Stacy! read more

I could not have been happier with my decision to have Stacy as our month-of coordinator for our wedding. We are still glowing 2 weeks after our big weekend. Stacy put me at ease from the beginning of the planning process by how organized she was. She had great suggestions for vendors and practical questions throughout the whole process. I met with her the month prior to our weekend and she thought through details that I did not even have on my mind. On the weekend of, I was super relaxed as I had complete confidence in Stacy's ability to deal with anything that might come up. She and her assistant, Adrienne, were calm, confidence and kind in navigating through the day. I would highly highly recommend Stacy for your wedding planning needs!!!!! read more

From a groom's perspective, Stacy was incredible! She kept everything organized leading up to the event and was ultra-calm and supportive on our wedding day. At the end of the night, we learned that a couple of little things had gone wrong with other vendors - Stacy improvised and adjusted on the fly, and neither us nor our guests had any idea that anything didn't happen according to plan. Professional, fun, and incredibly knowledgeable - Stacy helped us stay within our budget and pull off a radical day. read more

My husband and I got married at a private home in Portola Valley with about 135 guests. Countless guests told me it was the most fun and seamless wedding they've ever been to, which is thanks in large part to Stacy. There is a lot to coordinate with a wedding at a private home, but Stacy did it all flawlessly. At my wedding in particular, Stacy had to coordinate a room flip during cocktail hour so we could use the ceremony space for dinner as well. Within an hour, the space was transformed! I highly recommend Stacy and They So Loved Events. I got the month-of package, which included so much more than the services she provides during the month of the wedding. I emailed Stacy frequently throughout the year before my wedding for advice about particular details, and she always got back to me right away with a detailed response. Also, I definitely took advantage of her extensive vendor network-- Stacy worked within my style and budget to recommend the best options for me, and everything she suggested was perfect. Stacy is fun, kind, and creative, so it was a pleasure to work with her. She is also very disciplined, so when it comes to ironing out details and keeping things on schedule, she's all business. I had no doubts that she would take care of everything on the day of (and I was right!), so I was able to relax and just enjoy my day. I couldn't have asked for anything more! read more

Stacy is an incredibly classy woman. If you're looking for an event that is gorgeous, flawlessly executed, and particularly elegant, she's you're only choice. This is a world-class party planner, to whom I couldn't give a higher recommendation. read more
