Hope and Charity played piano, cello, violin, and harp at my wedding 2 years ago. They are…read moreunbelievably talented musicians. I asked them to play some songs specifically (canon in D, dream by Priscilla ahn, etc.), but I also had them play whatever songs because I figured they'd fit the mood accordingly (as they have been playing at weddings for years). They did an amaaaazing job, and people kept going up to compliment them after they stopped playing. It was so nice to have 2 people who can play any instrument to fit the song, instead of hiring 4 separate musicians. They are ridiculously sweet and patient. I would be surprised to find anyone sweeter and more talented. If I ever need live musicians again, I'm 100% calling these girls again. Would recommend 20/10! Thank you guys so much for being the perfect background music to my wedding!!!

We were initially bummed because our previous harpist was so sweet, but we quickly learned that we were in excellent hands with Naomi as well. She was incredibly responsive and had lots of musical experience. She performed during our cocktail hour, so unfortunately we didn't get to hear most of it ourselves. However, all of our guests told us the music was lovely and the snippets we did hear were amazing. She also dressed formally and was sure to ask what colors would compliment our wedding scheme, which we really appreciated. That was such a nice touch for her to do. We are so grateful that she was willing to jump in and were thrilled to have someone so talented as part of our special day! Thank you!

How can we begin to say enough about our wedding planner, now turned lifelong friend, Susanne…read moreDuffy? Susanne and the Crown Weddings & Events team created the most wondrous and spectacular wedding we could imagine. EVERYONE we talk to tells us it was unlike anything else they have ever seen. Susanne is not only incredibly artistic and visionary, but she also knows how to bring a team together to get even the most complicated job done. She cares so much about people, and it shows! She works until the middle of the night, never stops thinking about the events she plans and how she can make them as special as possible for her couples, and goes far above and beyond what others would. She is generous with her time and talents. One of the most special times in our wedding-planning process was when the dress I ordered 5 months beforehand did not show up and I had just 2 weeks to find a new one. Susanne sprung into action, accompanied me to one of her favorite bridal shops, (The White Flower - Bridal Boutique), and found my new dress for me! I felt so loved and cared for. Susanne's positivity is contagious, and the team she brings in to support the event are just like her! Every single one of them was a JOY to be around. She lends enthusiasm and humor to all of her interactions. This woman is FUN to work with! One of the best parts of this event was the opportunity to have Susanne enter our lives. She is unmatched in her professional skills, and an absolute treasure as a human. She is a visionary who not only understands how to create unbelievable environments with every detail made perfect, but she is also expert at figuring out the practical requirements and at orchestrating the complicated logistical dance that is requires behind the scenes to make it all work. We l love Susanne and her team and are FOREVER grateful to them!

She was able to take our vision and make it a reality. I literally cried walking into our reception it took by breathe away. Our guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended and again this was all during a time when we weren't even sure we could have a wedding. If you want someone who will make your day everything you've ever hoped for, then you will want to work with Susanne!

From the very first meeting, she understood our vision perfectly and brought it to life in the most beautiful way. Every arrangement, from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony arrangements to the reception centerpieces, was stunning and thoughtfully designed. She has such an incredible eye for color, texture, and detail, and you could truly see how much care and love went into her work. She was also so respectful of our budget, finding creative ways to make everything look full and lush without ever compromising on quality or style. On top of that, she was kind, communicative, and a total joy to work with. We had so many guests comment on how gorgeous the flowers were, and we couldn't have been happier. We would 100/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a florist who's talented, genuine, and truly passionate about what she does!

She was incredibly responsive during the entire process, was always willing to hop on the phone or text about some new bridal idea I had, and was just generally such a joy to plan our wedding with. She kept us organized and feeling so good about everything leading up to wedding day, and she just GETS it with decor. she had such good ideas and was such a big help in pulling the wedding weekend together! On the actual wedding weekend and day she was a godsend. We were so organized and on time, she made the whole day feel so stress free and it was the best happiest day ever. It was so smooth and painless and I literally to this day wouldn't know if anything went wrong, she had everything handled! She's also just a joy to work with. hire Lindsay!!

Lindsay brought up things I didn't even know I needed to think about. She truly had our and our guests' experience in mind the entire time. On the wedding night, Lindsay handled everything so well, I didn't have to think about literally anything. She always seemed to appear just when you needed her. It felt like she could anticipate things before they happened. Lindsay is a magician. And she was doing things behind the scenes that I wasn't even aware of; I had family members tell me how great she was, and I was confused they even interacted with her but she was really out there looking out for everyone's needs. And she expertly coordinated with all our vendors and was assertive with them when she needed to be. Lindsay runs a tight ship. And if you're having your wedding at Lomas Santa Fe Country Club, you definitely need Lindsay. She knows the venue inside and out, along with the staff and all the vendors who work there. If we'd had the budget for a full wedding planner, we would've hired her to plan the entire event from start to finish.
