We truly cannot recommend Allie and the Pop the Champagne team more. From the very beginning, they were always right there when we needed them. Allie was constantly answering our questions, thinking ahead, and making sure we felt supported every step of the way. They take their work seriously in all the right ways, but what makes them so special is how fun, funny, and genuinely sweet they are while doing it. Allie has the absolute best energy: calm, capable, and somehow still light and joyful even in high-stress moments. Our family and friends were obsessed with her. On the wedding day itself, Allie and team absolutely crushed it. They did an incredible job wrangling our wild group of family and friends, keeping everything on track without it ever feeling rigid or stressful. We felt so taken care of and if we needed something, she was already there. If something needed handling, it was handled seamlessly. Because of the PTC team, we were able to be fully present and actually enjoy our day without worrying about logistics, timelines, or a single detail. That peace of mind is priceless. If you're looking for a coordinator who is professional, organized, hilarious, kind, and just an all-around joy to be around, this is your team. We're endlessly grateful and would recommend them to anyone, without hesitation. If you're going back and forth or if you think you might not need a coordinator (heads up, you do) well, just book them already!!! You will not regret it. Seriously. Go book them now. read more

Cannot recommend Allie and her team enough! From our first meeting, we knew we were in great hands. Although we received a "day of coordinator," we got so much more than that. Allie was a listening ear and open to questions from the second we booked with her. As we got closer to the wedding day, she consistently checked in and brought a confident yet calm energy to the process. On the day of, everything flowed SO smoothly that we just got to sit back and enjoy our day! 10/10 recommend PTC! read more

Pop the Champagne - Wedding Planning Near Me

Allie and her team at Pop The Champagne went above and beyond to make sure everything went off without a hitch the day of our wedding. Toilet not working? Allie fixed it. Last minute no shows? Allie handled it. Hair starting to fall? Allie and her assistant swooped in like a pit team at NASCAR. I felt beautiful and cared for all night long, and it was a dream to not have to answer ANYONE'S questions. From start to finish working with Pop The Champagne was one of the best decisions I made when planning a wedding, I can't say enough good things! read more

Pop the Champagne, thank you so much!! Melissa was the absolute best coordinator we could have ever dreamed of! From our very first meeting, I knew she was the perfect person for the job--she was so organized, thoughtful, and always ready with answers to all of my questions. Throughout the planning process, she was a calm and steady presence, especially during those stressful moments when I needed reassurance. Her recommendations were spot-on, her attention to detail was flawless, and she truly took care of everything. Our rehearsal was seamless and so well organized, setting the tone for the wedding itself. On the day of, even when unexpected things came up, Melissa handled them with complete grace and positivity. She kept me calm, confident, and focused on what mattered most--enjoying the day with my husband and our loved ones. Because of her, our wedding day felt effortless and perfect. Everything flowed smoothly, and I never once had to worry about logistics. We also loved working with Tiffany as our content coordinator. She brought such fresh, creative ideas for videos and content and was such a joy to be around. She captured our day in such a fun, thoughtful way and added an extra layer of magic to the whole experience. Melissa and Tiffany were the dream team--we truly couldn't imagine our day without them. Both my husband and I absolutely loved working with them, and we're endlessly grateful for all they did to make our wedding seamless and unforgettable. I would recommend Melissa, Tiffany, and Pop the Champagne one million times over.

For 2 consecutive years Allie and Danielle from Pop The Champagne have truly exceeded our expectations for our Company Holiday party. They pulled everything together in a short amount of notice, and their attention to detail, consistent communication, and flawless execution made everything come together perfectly.   On the day of the event, everything came together flawlessly - from the timeline to the beautiful decorations.  This time, we hosted our event on a boat with live musicians, a magician, and even Santa Claus, creating an unforgettable experience. We had an amazing experience and cannot recommend PTC enough for any event type. Allie and Danielle, you are true professionals who genuinely care for their clients. We will absolutely be working with them again! read more

I want to say thank you so much to PTC (Allie & Danielle) for making our wedding go so smoothly. It was the most perfect day of our lives! Allie was amazing from the first moment in helping me plan my wedding with timelines, vendors, and being the official of our ceremony. It's so good to have peace of mind on such an important day. Thank you for handling everything in the best way, and always keeping our glasses full. Cheers!!! read more

Our wedding was the best day ever thanks to Pop The Champagne. Dani was the best day of coordinator and truly made our day so special. Every single detail was reviewed over by her leading up to the big day. Things that we may have missed did not go unnoticed by her, and were so thankful we went with PTC. Every single interaction was met with so much positivity and professionalism in a way that makes you comfortable throughout the entire process. On the day of the wedding, we were not made privy to any situations that went awry, because Dani was there to take care of it all and just wanted us to enjoy our special day. I needed something restitched on my tux and Dani had the sewing kit. I lost another thing and Dani had a replacement ready to go that she brought herself. The attention to detail did not go unnoticed. Also shoutout to Karla for being such an amazing planner as well, all of the helpful tips, advice and for letting us know which vendors to trust because those were literally all of our favorite ones. I cannot recommend this company enough if you're looking for anything wedding planning related. Every single detail will be walked through and explained in as much detail as you want without being overwhelming, and when the big day comes you will be ready to have the most smooth and best night ever!! read more

Pop the Champagne - Wedding Planning Near Me

I don't even know where to start besides that this was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding! If you're trying to decide on whether or not to hire PTC, the answer is absolutely YES!!! From the big things, to the small and everything in between Angelynn took care of it all. There were things that my fiancé and I wouldn't have even thought about and PTC sure had it all covered. The months and weeks leading up to the wedding day, the details meetings and phone calls were so helpful! Allie and Angelynn helped us feel at ease for our big day. As a bride, the last thing you want to do is stress about more on your wedding day and let me tell you, Angelynn took care of it all! From handling our marriage license, to getting us lunch, to finding the boys a damn lint roller no one thought to bring, she was there! Looking back on the day, it truly could not have gone any better and we were so grateful for them. You ladies are amazing and thank you so much for everything you did for us! read more

Pop the Champagne did an absolutely incredible job coordinating our wedding! We're almost a week post-wedding and still so over the moon with how perfectly everything came together. From the very beginning, we clicked with Dani, who was assigned to us. She's thoughtful, bubbly, funny, organized, and incredibly on top of everything--which was exactly what we needed. Every meeting with her was a joy; she always listened to our ideas and offered thoughtful suggestions when we needed guidance. On the wedding day, Dani, Ang, and Bre brought our vision to life flawlessly. The entire day was stunning, seamless, and so well executed. Guests kept complimenting us on how smooth everything felt, and we never had any "awkward" moments because the timeline Dani created was so well thought out and perfectly followed. Overall, we could not be happier with our wedding day and with Pop the Champagne. They exceeded our expectations in every way and gave us the wedding of our dreams. read more

WOW. We had the honor of working with Allie herself and she and her team are the absolute BEST. Not only did she make our actual wedding day (we got married at La Venta Inn in Palos Verdes Estates in November 2024) so seamless and wonderful for us, but leading up to the day was handled so efficiently and calmly and let us feeling like we had nothing to stress over. Vendors love working with her and the PTC team, every time I mentioned her name to our florist, live music vendor, photographer, it was met with a compliment on how organized and on top of it she was. PTC has an excellent reputation in the industry. About a month before our wedding, I distinctly remember Allie talking me off the ledge one day - I was starting to stress over some decor detail I saw on social media (I can't even remember what now!) and she reassured me I already had everything I needed to make our wedding beautiful/according to my vision and that the best thing I could do is stop looking scrolling Etsy, TikTok, Instagram. That's some real pro advice right there. Something I thought of often in those final weeks leading up to the big day. At the rehearsal the night before, friends and family members came up to me commenting on how impressive and lovely Allie was - commanding the room, bringing awesome energy to each moment. I kept hearing "she's so great, I want to be friends with her!" Best compliment ever! On our actual wedding day, we truly got to be present and enjoy every moment of our wedding. We even got to eat! If anything did to wrong on our big day, we were blissfully unaware. She kept a calm, efficient, positive/fun energy about her, made us feel taken care of, and let us soak in every moment. We also had the enormous pleasure of working with Ange on the day of with Allie, and she made sure my dress and veil looked perfect, helped figure out my bustle, and helped make sure everything in the venue look gorgeous, including my welcome sign and table. Thank you, Ange!! You're a star! I could truly go on and on. Thank you team, PTC for making the biggest day of our lives even more special, joyful, and fun. read more

The best thing I did was hire Pop the Champagne. I have experience in the wedding industry, and events are my career. I am highly organized with high expectations and don't easily trust people to do things right. But it only took one call with the founder, Allie, for me to decide. Allie answered all my questions and even helped navigate a few planning aspects a year prior to the wedding. Did you know that some other day-of-coordinators charge additional for that? PTC is authentic and genuinely wants to help you. I was confident that I wouldn't be stressed out because I was on top of planning, but the month leading up to the wedding was no joke. I was juggling emotional stress, my job, RSVP cancellations, self-absorbed people (lol), DIY tasks, etc. Thankfully, I was assigned to Taylor Scott, and OH MY GODDDDDDDDD, she is the absolute queen. Taylor went ABOVE & BEYOND. I didn't have to micromanage her or even check in with her; she was always ten steps ahead of me. We were stressed over a few logistic issues that weren't even within Taylor's scope. We brainstormed, and she found MULTIPLE solutions and executed for us. It lifted so much weight off my shoulders. When I was incredibly stressed, she never added to it - she's supportive, strong, calm, sweet, and so receptive. Her assistant was wonderful too! On the very day of the wedding, there were so many moving parts behind the scenes, but Taylor managed all of it. She coordinated our dream wedding spotlessly. I did not have to handle any of that AT ALL. We were even ahead of schedule, and we had downtime to relax before the ceremony and reception. That was the best part. Go Taylor!! You're the best!! PTC are seasoned veterans, so I highly recommend moving forward. And OH, HIRE Bottle Service too to streamline everything because that was super easy to work with too. read more

We worked with Angelynn at Pop the Champagne for our wedding, and we're so grateful we did. Our planning process came with its fair share of unexpected challenges--including a venue change--but Angelynn handled everything with so much grace, calm, and expertise. She made what could've been a stressful experience feel totally seamless. On the day itself, we were able to fully enjoy every moment knowing she had everything under control. Her support and guidance meant the world to us, and we truly couldn't have done it without her. Highly, highly recommend! read more

Considering I recently had my second wedding anniversary this review may be a little overdue :) But I wanted to give my thanks to Allie, Melissa and the whole Pop the Champagne team. Allie (the founder & owner) and team did an amazing job from start to finish. From our initial phone call Allie was organized, funny and accommodating. Melissa stepped in closer to the wedding as our day of coordinator and was there every step of the way from rehreserahl to the after party. I can't recommended the PTC crew enough! read more

Working with PTC was an incredible experience! My wedding at SmogShoppe ran so smoothly, especially since the team was familiar with the venue. I was so relieved when Melissa was assigned to me about three months before the wedding. We met for a drink to discuss what to expect in the final months, and that conversation truly put my mind at ease. With so many small details to manage, having Melissa involved as the day approached was invaluable. Melissa knew SmogShoppe like the back of her hand and kept things running with a fun, relaxed vibe. She kept us on track on the wedding day, always available when I needed her but never overbearing. As someone who's been a bridesmaid countless times, I've seen coordinators who let their stress affect the wedding party, but Melissa and her assistant were the complete opposite. They were professional and organized and brought such joyful energy to the day. Throughout the day, they made sure I had everything I needed and even helped figure out how to bustle the very tricky train of my dress. A couple of my friends also mentioned how helpful they were--one had a wardrobe malfunction, and they quickly stepped in with fashion tape to fix her dress. Having two coordinators ensured everything was handled flawlessly. If you want a seamless, fun-filled wedding day, I highly recommend PTC! read more

Booking Pop the Champagne was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Even before our 3-month countdown kicked in, I had a small question about the timeline, and Allie herself immediately scheduled a call with us and drafted us a very solid timeline! We later got set up with Angelynn as our month-of coordinator, which was such a blessing. From the very first day, Angelynn was enthusiastic, supportive, and thoughtful. She always made us feel like we were her #1 priority - she advocated for us and supported us in making our day uniquely ours every step of the way. On our wedding day, we kind of just showed up to the venue and everything from there on out was taken care of by Angelynn! She navigated a variety of personalities and cultural traditions gracefully, and our day was so seamless thanks to her amazing work. I don't even know of any of the random things that came up that night that she had to solve for us, which was by her design - she's a true professional! She also took special consideration to build in time into our wedding day for us to soak it all in, which was the most meaningful of all. We never would have imagined that our day could have been so perfect and beautiful and full of love, and it 100% would not have been possible without Angelynn. Thank you, PTC! read more

Our experience with PTC and our coordinator Dani was amazing! She made us feel very special and helped alleviate a lot of stress and worry throughout the process. We're so glad we chose PTC and it was clear from our first call with Allie that we were in very good hands and they knew exactly what they were doing. If we could give a 6 star review we absolutely would! read more

It is no coincidence that the word Angel is within Angelynn's name - she completely elevated our wedding day to perfection. From the first venue walk-through meeting to all the ones in between, both in-person and over the phone, Angelynn was professional and understanding. She made sure to hold my hand through this process and continue to keep me in the loop with any vendor changes or questions. She executed the perfect day of timeline and if there were any hiccups on our big day, I sure didn't know about any of them! Angelynn always greeted us with a huge smile on her face, eager to remind us that this was a happy time and I could leave the stress with her. Hiring Pop the Champagne was easily one of the best decisions we made and I would highly recommend them to everyone. I wish I could get married again just to hire them again. Thank you so very much for making our wedding so magical! read more

Tiffanyyyyyy!!!!!!!!! Loved all our vendors, however PTC stood above them all. Tiffany was the absolute best! From day one, she was attentive and organized. She was courteous and considerate. She made sure all our needs were met and that we enjoyed the process of planning the wedding and most importantly enjoyed the wedding itself. She met up with us and the venue staff at the production meeting and took notes of every detail that we surely would have missed, despite taking notes ourselves. She was on top of our vendors, particularly obtaining their COIs and any signed agreements/documents they themselves had to provide. We just felt completely at ease about the wedding, putting our trust in her that she'd get it done, and she would. She gave us advice on tips, and to make sure that if we're not happy with one of our vendors, that we're not obliged to give the appropriate amount, ie, reflect our satisfaction through the tips (more on this below). Oh, and Dani, Tiffany's assistant, was amazing, backing up Tiffany, filling in for her when she needed to. She was basically a second Tiffany; seamless work between those two. Props to Dani as well, for sure! Three stories -- 1) as much as we liked our photographer, he had a miscommunication on his end (we double-checked the emails), and he didn't show up to the bridal suite to take "getting ready/pre-ceremony" photos and instead showed up to the venue. We weren't terribly upset, but it was disappointing, because we had planned certain photo ops with the bridesmaids and their gifts. When Tiffany caught wind of what had happened, she had stern words for the photographer. It was very much appreciated, like she allowed us to vent vicariously through her so we didn't have to stew about it and have it bother us the rest of the day. Later on after the ceremony, we asked her about tips, and she said (very VERY much paraphrasing), to reflect our satisfaction through the tips. It should be noted that all our vendors received a tip, if you catch my drift; one just got less than we had planned on giving them. 2) We're Dodger fans. The entire wedding party are Dodger fans. TIFFANY is a Dodger fan (sidenote: if you're not a Dodger fan, please still go with Tiffany). Due to scheduling conflicts with everyone involved, including the venue, the only time we were able to schedule the rehearsal was Friday morning. Well, it ended up being Dodgers in 5, and the LA had the parade that Friday. We felt bad for our wedding party and for Tiffany. But Tiffany was a friggin' professional. She was at the venue earlier than anyone else. She was patient, and she allowed us to load her car with much of the decor so that we didn't have to bring them ourselves on the wedding day. Friggin' PRO. 3) Last but not least, our dog loved her. Our dog is very shy, especially around strangers. She loved Tiffany. Our dog's name is Brenda From Accounting (mark it down as probably the best name on the face of the Earth), and Tiffany insisted she calls her by her full name. That meant the world to us. Quick note: the tear down at the end of the night went smoothly and Tiffany made sure of it. From start to finish, Tiffany and PTC made sure everything was taken care of, every detail accounted for, and most importantly, have the day worry-free to allow us to enjoy our big day. We said it several time throughout our time with Tiffany: worth every penny. Epilogue 1: we were sad when we realized we didn't take a photo with her. Tiffany, if you're reading this, I don't know how, but we have to take a photo with you. Brenda From Accounting says hi! Epilogue 2: we're, like, friends now. read more

Overall, my partner and I had a great experience with Pop the Champagne and would recommend them to couples needing help with the final stretch of their wedding. To go into the details a bit more, after our initial phone call with Allie, we happily signed with PTC. We didn't have any interactions with the PTC team until right before the 3 month out mark when Allie assigned us a coordinator. We had a bit of a rocky start with our coordinator. She seemed scattered in our first few interactions with her. After much debate between my partner and I on whether or not to raise our concerns, we decided to speak up and send a note to Allie. Allie was incredible with her response. She totally understood where we were coming from, gave us no grief about the situation, and assigned us Melissa as our new coordinator. Melissa was a wonderful coordinator. We feel very lucky to have worked with her! She was organized and so incredibly kind throughout the entirety of the 3 months we worked with her. She was timely in all her responses, detail oriented, and made herself available to us whenever we needed her. Dani(elle) was our second coordinator who worked with us on just the day of. She was great as well! Between the two of them, they made sure our wedding day went off without a hitch! They helped with everything big and small on the day of our wedding-- from making sure we were staying hydrated and eating to helping me with my veil and bustle. Can't thank either of them enough. We truly did not have to worry about anything on our wedding day. read more

I don't even know how to adequately start this review because I have so many amazing things to say about PTC and Karla. When Allie emailed me to let me know Karla was going to be my DOC for my wedding at Ebell Long Beach, she said "Karla is experienced at your venue, organized and sweet and going to be your new best friend :)" and she was 100% right! She was assertive without being aggressive, which is exactly what you want in a DOC!! From the moment we met, I immediately got such a good vibe from Karla and felt so at ease - she was on top of everything, kind, and funny. After our first meeting, she sent over a full Google drive of resources and spreadsheets/documents to stay organized. I am a bit of a control freak/Type A person, but literally had no issue handing the wedding planning reins to Karla because I trusted her completely. Karla once told me that the couple is the biggest priority during a wedding, and her actions showed that. She always, always, always advocated for what I wanted, what I deserved, and continually checked in with me to see how I was feeling leading up to the big day (and even after!). She communicated the timeline and pertinent details to our vendors well in advance and was such a godsend in making sure everything ran smoothly. Furthermore, she set up all the decor beautifully and packaged everything at the end of the night, including details she thought we would want as a keepsake like our special cocktail napkins and newspaper programs. Kim, Karla's assistant that night, was also so sweet and helpful! My parents, now-husband, and I were so impressed with how she went above and beyond for us. Any bride/groom assigned to Karla is so incredibly lucky to have her as their DOC, advocate, and friend! We adore you, Karla!!! read more

We have been struggling to find the perfect words to thank Pop the Champagne (specifically Allie, Karla, and Dee) for EVERYTHING they did for us to make sure our wedding was perfect, but it's been impossible to find them. So we're gonna ramble about how much we love Pop the Champagne and how they were easily the best decision we made for a Day of Coordinator for our Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Day! Our venues (Valentine DTLA & Flora Chang) recommended Pop the Champagne to us and we immediately fell in love with their website, different offers, and prices. After having the best time over a consultation with Allie, we knew knew she was going to be the right choice! She made something that is usually so stressful sound like so much fun! And thanks to all of her helpful documents to help us prepare for the wedding, we were able to build a timeline in regards to wedding planning and that helped us feel more confident than ever! And if we didn't feel confident, she always checked in with us or was there to answer any question we had over email! She even met with us to do a rough timeline of the Wedding Day which helped us feel A LOT more settled and helped us out when talking with vendors over email! We cannot thank her enough for helping us build such a solid foundation for our special day! She then passed the baton to the most professional, super funny, and always smiling Day of Coordinator that we truly fell in love with... Karla! Karla was AMAZING and we cannot sing her praises high enough! She met us (and our extensive wedding binder) in person and talked with us about our rehearsal dinner, wedding day, and really just got to know us and make us feel so comfortable! With her documents and amazing questions for things we didn't think about (re: Who's taking home perishables?), we went home and took the biggest sigh of relief! She was always quick to respond to an email and/or text with helpful information and her amazing humor that made us feel like we were in good hands. A week or two before the wedding, Karla started coordinating with our vendors and sent them timelines and expectations so they knew what was expected. It was extremely helpful to hand that over as we still had a lot to do on our side (i.e. making welcome bags, buying alcohol for the rehearsal dinner and getting it to the venue, etc.) On the day of the Rehearsal Dinner, we entered the venue to see everything was set up beautifully and Karla was already helping guide our guests! That moment was so important to us because it really made us know things were going to go perfectly the rest of the weekend! She was able to wrangle everyone and help everyone feel confident for the ceremony the next day! She was always looking around to see how she could make things smoother and we were always able to pull her to the side if we needed anything or had any questions! Fast forward to the Wedding Day where Karla and her assistant (Dee) did everything we could have ever asked for and MORE! There was not one moment that day where we felt like anything was going wrong! We remember telling Karla all we wanted to do was not people-please that night and we felt like that was accomplished! We also felt like we could focus on each other the whole night because we knew she had EVERYTHING covered for us! She also was perfect at keeping us on schedule, making sure the vendors knew what to do when throughout the night, and was the absolute best wrangler ever as she physically guarded us from oncoming loved ones (haha!) to try and help us eat food and not get pulled off by random people when we needed to move to the next part of the night! Overall, we cannot thank Pop the Champagne enough for going above and beyond the call of day of coordinating duty and making our dream wedding come true! read more

Huge THANK YOU to the Pop the Champagne team (and especially Allie!) for everything, truly! Allie kept us on track, managed the day-of schedule perfectly, and was an incredible resource throughout the planning process and in particular, the weeks leading up to the big day. Having Allie on our side and just an email away made us confident that everything would go off perfectly and that we didn't need to stress at all. I don't have enough kind words to say about Allie and the immense support she provided throughout the process. Her wealth of experience and knowledge of how to handle all kinds of crazy situations made our wedding day incredibly special, smooth, and low-stress. Pop the Champagne is the best money you will spend on your big day! read more

PSA: Do NOT recommend for larger weddings. Their "Month of Coordination" service is inaccurately described, as they do not provide thorough assistance during the month leading up to your event. Our experience with PTC was less than satisfactory. After reading numerous reviews, we were confident they would do a great job. In hindsight, I wish we had researched coordinators experienced with larger weddings. We had 150 guests and held the wedding at the expansive Paramour Estate. We were assigned Taylor, and initially, everything seemed to be going well. However, after our first meeting and venue visit, her communication significantly declined. We expected PTC to manage vendor communications, but that did not happen. Taylor only collected COIs and inquired about vendor arrival times. She acted as an intermediary with the venue, but we often received quicker responses by contacting the venue directly rather than waiting for her to get back to us. 1.5 weeks before the wedding, we were anxious about finalizing our timeline. We didn't hear from Taylor, and I had to reach out to schedule a meeting. She suggested chatting the following week, days before the wedding. This was unacceptable, as any significant changes needed to be communicated to vendors in advance. On the wedding day, Taylor initially planned to arrive at the venue at 12 pm, despite vendors arriving at 9 am and the venue opening to the bride and groom at 10 am. The purpose of hiring a day-of team is to manage vendor arrivals and address any issues, not to leave the bride and groom handling this on their wedding day. The wedding day was disorganized. We needed 18 tables, but due to miscommunication with the vendors, only 15 were provided. Taylor was supposed to manage the table layout and place the table cards. She knew the layout as we had discussed it prior. She set the place cards, so she should have been able to catch that 3 tables were missing in the morning. Thirty minutes before dinner, she rushed over to inform us that tables were missing. She suggested we do unassigned seating. I said no that will lead to more chaos. My husband suggested she find extra tables around the venue. The coordinator, should have found a solution, and not brought the problem to the bride and groom. Taylor failed to keep track of the previously discussed timeline. Dinner was scheduled to start at 6:15 with toasts at 7:15. By 8 pm, my family was frustrated that toasts hadn't occurred. We agreed to do the cake cutting and the hora before the photographer left. Taylor pulled my sister aside asking what time the cake cutting and hora were supposed to happen. THIS IS THE COORDINATORS JOB - she had to keep track of making sure these events happened before the photographer's leave time. My family and I were drinking, enjoying the night, but Taylor kept asking SO many questions she should have already had the answers to. Inaccurate service descriptions: "Unlimited communication throughout the whole process: We want to be a resource from day one. " After our first meeting, Taylor was barely available. "Venue and vendor confirmations: After that in person meeting we take over as much vendor communication as possible." Taylor only requested COIs and arrival times, failing to manage vendor communication as promised. "Direction of rehearsal" Taylor was absent during the rehearsal. In conclusion, our experience with Pop the Champagne was disappointing, especially given the cost and our expectations based on their service descriptions. For those planning a larger wedding, I recommend seeking coordinators with proven experience in managing such events. Unfortunately, the negative memories from our wedding are all tied to PTC and their lackluster service. While weddings can be inherently stressful and rarely go perfectly, the issues with PTC began a month before our wedding and added unnecessary stress to the entire process. read more

Pop the Champagne - Wedding Planning Near Me

If I could give them 10 stars I would! There is no way in HELL we would have been able to make it down the aisle without the help of Pop the Champagne, and specifically our coordinator Dani! From the second we connected with the company, we felt at ease and ready to tackle the stress of wedding planning, and after getting introduced to Dani it was OFFICIAL!! We had instantly made a new best friend and trusted her with absolutely everything to do with our big day. She went above and beyond to ensure her boys were good and that everything went off without a hitch, and our day was absolutely perfect thanks to PTC and the gang. We already have plans to continue our friendship post-wedding and I can't wait to continue to have the PTC fam apart of our lives forever. Thank you SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING, ladies!! read more

Pop the Champagne - Our INCREDIBLE wedding coordinator, and new best friend, Danielle Dueñas! - Wedding Planning Near Me

We had such a wonderful experience with Pop The Champagne and our assigned lead coordinator, Karla! For anyone early in the planning process, I would 100% encourage you to make room in your budget for a DOC. Even if you are on top of things and feel like you are great at planning, you really don't realize how much work will be required in the weeks leading up to the wedding and on the day of! It is the best gift you could give yourself, your partner, and your friends and family. You will be a much happier person with a PTC DOC supporting you! Before we were assigned to work with Karla, Allie was available and always got back to me super quickly with any questions I had! She also did a call with us to come up with a preliminary timeline. She had great advice and made us feel really supported. After being assigned to work with Karla, we had a wonderful in person meeting. We felt really comfortable voicing our wishes, concerns, and questions with her. She had great questions and advice and helped guide us through the final timeline process. Karla supported us at our final venue walk through, as well. She has a great relationship with the staff at our reception venue, which we feel like we definitely benefited from! Karla also made our rehearsal go so well and helped everyone to feel confident for the big day. She was so lovely, supportive, and helpful and we will feel forever grateful we got to work with her! As a pretty particular/picky person, it was hard to hand off all the decorations and trust someone else to make your vision come to life, but Karla and her assistant, Dani, did the most amazing job! The reception venue looked perfect! They really made it the perfect day and we could not be happier with how everything went! Also, feels important to add that Karla was so great with our families and guests. We also last minute added on the PTC Content Collector package for 6 hours. We are so thankful we did this! Kaiel was so friendly and fun! We have so many amazing videos to look back on now. They were delivered to us in a Google Drive the day after our wedding, which was amazingly prompt! Overall, 100% recommend going with PTC for your coordinating needs. It will make your wedding planning process so much easier! read more

I recently got married on 11.7.25 and had Allie from Pop the Champagne as my coordinator. Deciding on a wedding coordinator is such an overwhelming decision but I can assure you that if you choose this company you will have an amazing experience!!!! Even though I paid for a day of service, Allie was in contact with me months before the wedding day to ensure everything was organized and talked through. She came to walkthroughs and rehearsals with me and brought an element of expertise that was crucial to the planning process. Allie not only is a fun, outgoing, loving human, but she is loyal to you as a bride and as a couple, is exceptionally patient and calm during day of party chaos, and truly orchestrated a seamless and beautiful wedding. We LOVE this company and can guarantee you will too. It is worth every penny to have someone in your corner that you can 100% trust. Thank you Allie and Team! We love you! read more

My daughter used them for her wedding! Best money you will ever spend! Karla was on top of it all! Her organizational skills are top notch. Anything we asked her to do, she was on it! She was professional and so easy to work with! Do NOT hesitate....this is a company that really cares about your special day! Thank you thank you thank you!! read more

If we could give TEN STARS, we would! We went back and forth as to whether we wanted to bring on a wedding planner or day-of coordinator, and believe me when I say - Pop the Champagne was the single best investment we made in our planning process and wedding-day experience. From our very first call to our wedding weekend, Allie went above and beyond. She was communicative, responsive, professional, offered expert advice and guidance, and was SO MUCH FUN to work with! She also crafted our day-of timeline, directed our rehearsal, and took over final vendor communication, so that all we needed to do on our wedding day was show up, relax, and enjoy. She masterfully executed all events on our wedding day, kept us on track and on time, and continually checked in with us, our vendors, and our wedding VIPs to make sure the vibes were immaculate. Our guests could not stop talking about how well everything flowed together at our wedding, and that could not have happened without Allie's expertise and energy. Every engaged couple needs an Allie! Could not recommend Pop the Champagne more! read more

Allie, Taylor and the PTC crew were simply spectacular in every way. My wife and I had only been to one wedding together prior to ours so we were nervous about throwing a "good" wedding - and not only did the day go off without a hitch, but many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever gone to. We found their rates to be comparable to other coordinators we talked to and coming in month-of was the perfect amount of time. We met with Taylor about 6 weeks out to go over details, and from that point on we didn't have to think once about vendors, timelines, contracts, or administrative work. She was incredibly professional and organized throughout the weeks leading up to the wedding, giving us everything from checklists to reassuring hugs as the nerves began setting in. To describe just how much they went above and beyond - Taylor even ran to a bodega down the street as our guests were arriving to buy a beer that we wanted to give my uncle as a gag gift, but had forgotten. Weddings aren't exactly a "do it again" event but if you're looking for a coordinator--I would hire PTC in a heartbeat. Forever thankful for Taylor and her team and everything they did to make our wedding day feel like a fairy tale. read more

Who knew having a wedding could be so stress free and fun?? In January we celebrated the best day of our lives, much in thanks to Allie, our coordinator. This lady is fun. Like the embodiment of pure fun. And also get shit done. Our day was organized, and effortless. I was able to just let go of everything on the day because I trusted I was in good hands. Her communication through the process was quick and diligent. Her follow through was impecable. I honestly cannot say enough about how much she was the backbone of our day. Allie, we will forever be grateful to you. And scout says hi! read more

My wedding would not have happened without pop the champagne and coordinator Dani! Me and my husband had the day of our absolute dreams. Dani was such a boss and made every detail happen. She's an excellent communicator and I was never left with questions or confusion about any of the process. I have some strong personalities and strained dynamics in my family and I can't fully express how amazing Dani was with navigating all of it and making the day feel just so special for me and my husband. If you're on the fence about booking a coordinator, do yourself a favor and book with pop the champagne-- it was such a weight lifted for all those nitty gritty details, vendor communication, and any day of wedding stress. I can't express my gratitude enough!! Thank you Dani!!! read more

We truly don't have enough amazing things to say about PTC and Allie. From the very beginning, I knew Allie was someone we could trust. As we got closer to the big day, whenever I would mention our coordinator, I would say to people "I would trust that woman with my life." And I literally would. Allie truly thinks of everything and makes the entire process of throwing a big event feel easy and seamless. We really wanted a coordinator who understood our vision as a lesbian couple that didn't want a traditional wedding, but still wanted our guests to feel like they were attending a wedding. Allie got it right away and gave us lots of helpful tips to make sure our vision came to life. I felt so confident on the day of knowing that she was there and that she would handle everything that came up. Allie is so talented at handling issues that come up, that we never even knew there was an issue in the first place. Only after the event did we even hear that there had ever been an issue. On top of everything else, PTC is super affordable! Easily the best money we spent on our wedding. Hire PTC! Trust them with your life! read more

Stop what you're doing and just book PTC. Allie and Melissa were such a dream team to work with on our special day. They keep it real with you and that to me was priceless throughout our planning process. If you were like me and had no idea what you were doing just know you can confidently put all your trust in PTC and you'll have the best wedding ever! And also hi they are so fun and truly GSD! Love you gals! Pierre and I are forever grateful xx read more

I am a Wedding Officiant and worked with wedding coordinator Liz @Pop the Champagne for a 4/1/23 wedding. I have been working in this industry for 14 years and let me just say that Liz is a walking breath of fresh air! Her email communication was so professional, accurate, prompt and thorough. I knew early on that she would become one of my favorites. For rehearsal day and wedding day she was early, so warm and friendly, professionally dressed (can't say enough about this) and ready to work...Did I mention thorough?! I do hope we get the opportunity to work together again soon. Thanks Liz-I tip my hat to you! read more

Massive shoutout to the Pop the Champagne team!!! They were incredibly helpful and made the planning and day so wonderful. We worked with Melissa, and she was a life-saver. She was incredibly accommodating, incredibly knowledgeable, and just an overall joy to work with. She never made us feel dumb (even though we definitely asked dumb questions), and she helped keep us on track the entire way through. She was in touch with all of our vendors, which wasn't an easy task at all given what we asked her to help with. And she helped us craft a perfect day-of timeline, along with an absolutely perfect layout (and helped us whenever we were stumped/indecisive on some design/aesthetic choices). I think one of the biggest signs of how great Melissa is at her job is the fact that there was absolutely NOTHING missed in the event. No small detail went unaccounted for, we had no hiccups whatsoever, all of our vendors were on the same page, and nothing even got left behind! Melissa dealt with every curveball we threw her way (regardless of how much advanced notice we gave her), and she made our lives incredibly easy. There were honestly moments where I felt like I forgot something, or we didn't bring it up beforehand, only to realize Melissa had already made sure everything was taken care of. Would absolutely recommend!!! read more

THEY ARE THE BEST! Liz and the team were amazing. My wedding day would have been nothing without them. I had very sporadic and chaotic plans of how I hoped the day would go, and Liz took those plans and turned everything I had in my head into reality. I truly felt like I could relax and just enjoy the day because Liz and the PTC team had everything running so smoothly. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone!!! Do yourself a favor and make the best decision you'll make for your wedding/event and hire them. read more

When we booked our wedding at the Ebell and they provided us with a list of preferred vendors, I knew I wanted to go with a wedding coordinator they preferred, since they would likely be familiar with the Ebell. After some review, I really enjoyed PTC's approach to wedding planning and coordinating, so we reached out. Allie got back to us so quickly and was incredibly responsive and fun to talk to. We decided to go with PTC and I'm so glad we did. We booked PTC in March/April 2021 for our wedding in October 2022, so there was a lot of down time, lol. Despite this, PTC provides cool monthly updates/tips and Allie always let us know that she was around for any interim questions/concerns. Even though we were in chill mode for most of 2021 (more like savings mode), it was comforting to know that PTC was always around for any questions. We got matched up with Taylor about 3 months prior to the big day. Taylor was proactive in wanting to meet up with us beforehand in person to get to know each other, so we went out to dinner and hit it off! It was a nice gesture to get to be able to communicate with Taylor in person, let her know our vision, and gain a better understanding of her role on the big day. After our in person hang, Taylor was always around to answer any questions, provide any suggestions, and communicate with our vendors when needed. The month leading up to the wedding she was ON IT. She kept us in the loop about all her communications, reached out to us for additional information, and made sure that the timeline for the day was perfection. She even went with us to our design planning meeting at the Ebell the month before the event to make sure she was on top of everything. The week of the wedding, she was our best friend lol. She helped lead the rehearsal at our hotel, helped take all our decor, and helped calm us and make sure we were feeling happy and ready. On the day of, Taylor and her assistant Courtney made sure everything ran perfectly. And literally, like it ran perfectly lol. I can't really pinpoint any issues with how the day went! Everything was where it was suppose to be and our vision came to fruition perfectly through Taylor's execution. All of the vendors worked so well with her, and she was available to speak with us if we needed her at any moment, even when she was busy running around making sure the event was going smoothly. Her and Courtney stayed till the end to ensure closing time went smoothly as well. Because of PTC/Taylor's ability to get stuff done right, I genuinely enjoyed my wedding day and felt so filled with love and happiness. We truly wouldn't have been able to experience that much joy had it not been for the way Taylor handled everything, and for that she's now stuck with me as a friend lol. So yes, hire PTC for your wedding! You will not regret it. read more

Dani exceeded our expectations by miles. I don't leave reviews either but I would leave her 10 reviews. We just got married in Newport Beach and she WAS AMAZING AND MADE our wedding AMAZNG. All our guests said it was the best wedding they had been to. She worked closely (and happily) with my wife and executed her dream. She was half the price of others and I think worth double then others. Her personality and energy was also next level. She is a true professional and it shows. Dani, if you're ever in Vegas you have a free house anytime you want it. Forever indebted to you. The Wrights read more

Pop the Champagne - Our wedding - Wedding Planning Near Me

"Great" doesn't even cover it!! If you are looking for planners right now or a DOC this is your sign to hire Allie and Pop the Champagne. First of all, "Day of".. is certainly cutting themselves short. From the time you sign on.. they are available for all your questions. You book the vendors.. they do the rest. Literally that easy. Allie will point you in the right direction with a slew of vendors - and prices- and honest feedback. WE LOVED our check in calls with her over the 8 months *que a bottle of vino*. It felt more fun, than planning... which is why day of.. I couldn't believe what we created!! I thought there was no way THIS wedding, was THAT easy... and that's bc of Allie and her team. Killed it. Nailed it. knocked it out of the park. All we wanted was guests to say this was - The Best Wedding Ever... and we heard it over and over, thanks to Allie. As fun as the team is.. they don't mess around. Our timeline was made a month in advance, our vendors were given the details and contracts and arrival times, our day went off with out a single hiccup. (at least that I know of lol). We did the leg work (minimal, tbh) and Allie gave us the wedding... and DAY of our dreams. We also had a tattoo artist at our reception... what other planner can help you line THAT up! Cheers to all the future brides out there, your search is done. No over priced, stuffy, traditional planners here. They are the best of the best and we cant thank POC enough. read more

Pop the Champagne - tattoos make the best wedding favors 3 - Wedding Planning Near Me

Chef's kiss to Pop the Champagne!! I started planning my wedding and looking for vendors and I KNEW I NEEDED a coordinator, no doubt about it. PTC was recommended by a friend in the industry, so with my search, I found that PTC was the most simple, and straight forward with their 1 package. That's all you really need and also the BEST priced I could find. After I booked with them, the communication was GREAT! Allie would always respond to emails promptly and with lots of great info. When it was time for our day of coordinator decision, DANI came into our lives. What a lovely, kind, on her sh*t lady. We loved it. So organized and helpful. She is the absolute best!! The day of our wedding was so smooth because of Dani and Kim. Went off without a hitch. We couldn't have imagined the day being any better. Thank you so much Dani, Kim, and the PTC team!! read more
