3 stars for the business. 5 stars for Sierra and Robin! Overall, I was very happy with how my…read morewedding turned out. There were some hiccups along the way, but overall, a pretty smooth event. Initially, I was not planning to have a day-of planner because my wedding was at Round Hill Pines, and staff does about 90% of set up. The only thing I really needed help with was decorations. I had enough family and friends willing to help; however, I was going to be 7 months pregnant during the wedding, and I didn't want the added stress of assigning duties to my family and friends and making sure they knew what time to be where, and what to do. Anyway, I hired Plan Your Day, and I was paired up with Sierra. Sierra is awesome. Super approachable, friendly, easy to communicate with, and great to work with. Unfortunately, I had to postpone my wedding due to the Caldor Fire. Sierra said they would roll over my payment to a future date, which was great. Then I am informed in early December 2021 that I'd need to provide a date for my rescheduled wedding by December 31, 2021, or I'd be charged $1,000, or my agreement would be terminated. This was not how the contract is worded. I was rescheduling my wedding, and the Event Rescheduling provision says, "If Client(s) reschedules the Event Date, written notice must be given to the Planner of Client(s)' intention to reschedule the Event Date and if known, identify the new date for the Event ("Rescheduled Event Date")." The contract says, "if known" and I didn't know what the new dates would be when we rescheduled because there was a huge fire in the area. Sharae informed me that she gave me a courtesy of 4 months to provide a new date for my wedding, but the Rescheduling provision does not say when I needed to provide the "rescheduled event date." The contract says, "If Planner is unavailable to perform the Services for the Rescheduled Event Date, then it will be deemed a Termination by Client(s) as outlined below." Either way, Sharae gave me 2 options: A.) Since you have asked for an extension through January or February to provide dates for a rescheduled 2023 wedding. Without a signed written agreement or modified agreement containing 1-2 dates that the wedding will be postponed to, on January 1, 2022, your contract will be considered terminated. But, a new contract will be introduced, signed, and an additional $1000 retainer fee will be applied towards your new event date. This new contract will be signed and due by January 1st to allow for the extended time frame to provide 1-2 rescheduled dates. B.) Without a signed written agreement or modified agreement containing 1-2 dates that the wedding will be postponed to, on January 1, 2022, your contract will be considered terminated and no additional services will be provided. OOOK....with my newly acquired mommy brain, basically, if I didn't have a signed agreement by New Years, I'd either lose my $2,200 that I had already paid or need to pay an additional $1,000. No thank you! I rescheduled my wedding before Sharae's New Years deadline. Fast-forward to 2023 and I'm working with Sierra again, which I was happy about. She was great to work with again, but she seemed to have a lot on her plate. I wasn't too concerned because I had been in close contact with all my vendors already, so I was mainly relying on Sierra for decorations and the ceremony. Unfortunately, Sierra informed me that she would not be there for my wedding, but she did provide me with an amazing replacement - Robin. I was a bit nervous because I never met Robin until the wedding rehearsal, and I didn't know what her background was in event coordination. Robin is superwoman! She handled the flow of the ceremony and kept the wedding events on schedule. A few of the place settings got mixed up, but it wasn't a huge deal. I was also supposed to have 2 people staff my wedding from Plan Your Day, but Sierra said the other person was not available and they could not find a replacement. The issue with that is I paid for 2 vendor meals for Plan Your Day, at $90 per head, and it was too late to deduct a meal. Would I recommend Plan Your Day to others? Unfortunately, I can't say I'd highly recommend Plan Your Day to others, as a business, but I would mention them as a worthwhile company to consider. Did Robin do a fantastic job? Absolutely! I'm not sure if she is a regular employee of Plan Your Day, but I'm glad she was there for my big day!

With 3 locations in one day, the setup and breakdown was feeling daunting. We found Plan Your Day here on Yelp and hired them for day-of coordination.

We didn't have to stress or think about a single thing when it came to the music because we fully trusted him, and he delivered beyond our expectations. Erik was always available for us, making time for check-in meetings, texts, and calls. He answered all of our questions and made sure to ask us the important questions so nothing was missed. That extra level of communication gave us so much peace of mind leading up to the big day. On the wedding night, he had an incredible ability to read the room, get the party started, and keep the energy going all night long. Our dance floor was packed from beginning to end, and our guests are still raving about how fun the night was. His professionalism, talent, and personality made him such a joy to work with, and we're so grateful he was part of our big day!

Even before our wedding, Erik was easy to communicate with and had a meeting with us to go over everything to ensure our wedding day went perfectly. Erik kept the energy up all through the night. Everyone said our music was great and the lighting added such a fun vibe to the dancing. Erik's attention to detail is amazing. Before we did our grand entrance into our first dance, he came up to us to ask how long we wanted to do our dance for. My husband and I knew we didn't want to do a long first dance, so Erik suggested a specific dance move to indicate that we're done. It was perfect! We are so glad we went with Erik and Epik Entertainment for our wedding. He was the best DJ and emcee! 1000000/10 recommend Epik Entertainment for all of their entertainment needs!!

When my now-HUSBAND and I first started to plan, we knew we didn't have the financial or mental…read morefortitude for a large, traditional wedding. We originally opted for a courthouse wedding, but quickly realized we wanted to do more to honor our beautiful seven-year relationship and include the people who mean most to us. THIS is where The Hytch came in and created a PERFECT day for us, our daughters (one human, one canine), and 19 of our closest loved ones. From the start, Gina was a warm and knowledgeable coordinator. She covered every detail I hadn't thought of and provided creative options at every turn. She enthusiastically accommodated every unique idea I threw at her, as long as it was anything short of impossible! Leading up to the wedding, I spent most of my time pinning down the details of our music playlist, outfits, and vows. Any other stressor was out of mind and covered by Gina; at most, it just required a quick answer on what would work best for my husband and me. Day-of, though?! Oh my god. Beyond! This team KNOWS what they're doing. I showed up a little later than I had hoped (typical), and they supported me in regaining time to prepare like the true pros they are. Gina and Mackenzie handled EVERYTHING--most of it being invisible to me, I'm sure. They totally GOT my vision and created an event that I still can't believe was real. I honestly think they could become professional cat herders if they wanted to--they're that amazing! As our officiant, Darren helped ease our nerves with humor and liveliness. He took every note we gave him to heart and delivered a service that our guests said was THEIR FAVORITE CEREMONY EVER!!! Of course I'm biased, but our family and friends have a history of being brutally honest. I can tell you it was definitely our favorite wedding ever, though. And then there is the GLORY that is Ashleigh, our photographer. She took the art (I'm calling my wedding art!) we created with the help of Gina, Mackenzie, and Darren and turned it into something we can keep and share forever. You know how sometimes you wish you could SHOW your dreams to other people? If anyone can work magic like that, it's Ashleigh. On a slightly more grounded note, this was our first time doing a couples' shoot. I don't think I've had professional photos done since school, and of course I spent a lot of time fretting over how I would look. I went into this feeling a little anxious, a little insecure, and a lot clueless. If that's you: do NOT worry! Ashleigh has your back and will turn you into a supermodel. Like I said... magic. My final shout-out goes to the venue itself. For us, it being local was a huge plus. Reno is home, and Sierra Water Gardens is very close to our actual house! I'm usually very expressive, but there's just no point in trying to describe the beauty of the SWG spot. It's breath-taking. Thank you to the whole team for your incredible work and the shining personalities you shared with us. Thank you for allowing us to celebrate in what has become my favorite spot in Reno (and maybe the world?). There is a reason The Hytch has such good reviews. If I hear the words "wedding planning" ever again, I'm going to MAKE SURE The Hytch enters the conversation. They will give you the wedding you want, and deserve! Kylie and Ryan -- Married 4.18.26

We celebrated our wedding at The Hytch at Sierra Water Gardens, and I truly cannot say enough good…read morethings about our experience. From the very beginning, I was completely blown away. Yeliz and our coordinator, Gina, were absolutely incredible. They are some of the kindest, most thoughtful, and genuinely caring people I've ever worked with. Throughout the entire process, they made my husband and me feel so comfortable and supported. They were always flexible with scheduling meetings, understanding with payments, and incredibly attentive whenever I had questions (or wedding-planning anxieties!). I always felt heard, reassured, and taken care of. Gina absolutely nailed my vision. I showed her a Pinterest board, and she brought it to life beyond anything I could have imagined. The florals were stunning -- and the team even made me smaller bouquets to take home afterward, which was such a thoughtful touch. The entire staff was professional, sweet, and so accommodating to both us and our families. The venue itself is pure magic. The Hytch spans the breathtaking Sierra Water Gardens and backs up to the Truckee River, which makes for the most gorgeous and unique setting. The moment I walked in, I was speechless. It was everything I had dreamed of and more. One of the biggest gifts they gave us was peace of mind. For an incredible value, you get the entire venue AND their team fully handles setup and breakdown of décor. That level of support allowed me to actually be present on my wedding day instead of worrying about logistics. I cannot overstate how much that meant to me. We did experience one small hiccup the day of (our officiant was double booked and arrived late), but The Hytch team handled it with such grace. They pivoted quickly and generously allowed our celebration to run later so we didn't lose any time. It meant so much that they cared about making our day whole. Overall, the entire process was smooth, joyful, and truly breathtaking. I'm beyond grateful for the care, creativity, and hard work that went into making our wedding so beautiful and perfect. I would recommend The Hytch a thousand times over -- and I will absolutely be finding another reason to celebrate there again.

The Kate Stapleton Experience elevated our entire wedding planning process. Every time we met with…read moreKate, we left more and more confident that we chose the right person for our special day. Kate took the time to get to know us. She had us walk through what was important to us to have captured on our wedding day. It was not really something that we had thought to articulate ourselves, but Kate made it easy by showing us example photos and having us describe what we liked about each one. Kate worked with us to create a very detailed and easy to follow timeline for our wedding day. Family and wedding party photos were a breeze, because she had organized the order in which each member would be added and removed from the photos. We had a 20 person bridal party plus a lot of extended family getting ready with us. Come the morning of the wedding when Kate arrives to the bridal suite, she circles all of my bridesmaids and family members up and goes around the room to learn every persons name. Incredibly, she memorized them all and used them throughout the entire day to help give directions. She truly became part of our family that day. She was great at being able to round up our big, crazy families. Everyone loved her. Being the center of attention can be intimidating. Kate helped relieve some of that pressure by being so stealthy and out of the way when photographing the day. I often forgot I was being photographed, which helped me be able to be myself and not feel like I was being watched by a camera. She and her second shooter, Kat, caught the most memorable candid moments because of that. I must also add that Kate dove herself into the dance floor to capture my brother and husband dancing together. We are so grateful to have had her on our wedding day. When our photos were finally ready to be revealed, Kate didn't just send us an email; she had us come to her office to relive the day together. We got to go through every photo together up on her large TV screen and create our wedding album. She gave us over 1,200 photos and had them all carefully organized in albums. She had also drafted 50 pages for us for our wedding album-- something that would have been quite daunting to try to put together on our own. Together, we created the wedding album of our dreams. Our experience with Kate Stapleton was priceless. We could not have been in better hands. She captured our special day so beautifully and our family will cherish these photos for generations. We are so very grateful to have met Kate and have gotten to work with her.
