She does baby showers, and other events, too! This summer, my best friend's co-ed baby shower was put together by Hannah, and it was beautiful! Dealing with a hormonal soon-to-be mom isn't easy, and I have to say that Hannah definitely made my friend and her family feel so comfortable and stress-free throughout the entire process of planning and execution. Hannah went so far above and beyond for my friend, and for that, we are all thankful! By request, Hannah was present the day of, and she made sure everything went seamlessly. My friend wanted her baby shower to have a country vibe, and the location itself was just that! It was in a beautiful park-like setting that had the cutest garden with a farm of baby goats in the background. I just melt when I think back to it! The centerpieces on the tables were floral arrangements that were so beautiful and had some of the most fragrant roses I've ever smelled. Hannah's attention to detail is second to none. The photo area had balloons that spelled out "OH BABY" and they were attached to rustic watering cans that were filled with flowers that matched the centerpiece arrangements, and the refreshment area had drinks in matching rustic buckets and troughs. As for food, my friend decided to have a food and desert truck present, and Hannah coordinated their arrival and menu options. There were several games set up to keep the guests entertained, as well. There's so much more that I could add about the baby shower, but I'll just say that it was so great and such an amazing experience that I hired her to help me with the annual Christmas party I host in my home. Let me start by saying that I didn't expect for her to take on such a big task of helping me with a holiday, when I know she probably had her own holiday events going on, but she did! I gave her an idea of what I was looking to do, and she made it happen! She even took care of invitations for me! I don't have ample seating, so she made sure that we got enough tables in to accommodate the large number of guests that were attending. I mentioned to her that I absolutely loved the centerpieces from my friend's baby shower, and I was so excited when she told me that she'd make sure I would get centerpieces just as beautiful, and they were. Dark roses, green pines, burgundy lilies, and some smaller green and white flowers adorned the tables along with scattered ornaments. The place cards were the guests' names in script, die-cut from wood that the guests could take with them to use as home decor or a tree ornament. I thought it was such a great idea. Being that I was still behind on decorating for the holiday, she made sure that the house had fresh decorations. Garland adored the stair balusters and railing, a fresh wreath hung on the door, and giant red bows hung from each lantern at the garage. Also can't forget the mistletoe hanging from an archway inside! The house smelled like a winter cabin and felt like one, too! The only thing I told Hannah that I absolutely wanted was a Christmas ham, bundt cakes, and Christmas cookies. If it wasn't for her, that's probably all I would have had, but she made sure that I had full appetizer, dinner, and dessert options for the guests. I wish I could give a better visual of both events, but I'm one of those people who pays no mind to the phone when I'm with others. One day, I'll get better at remembering to take at least one photo for my reviews. All in all, as a guest to a Red Letter Event and as a client of Hannah's, I've had wonderful experiences. I will most certainly be using her services in the future.

They spent so much time coming up with different ideas for me and paid so much attention to all the little details and gave me amazing options.

Event Date: 01/15/2023 Time: 1-4pm…read more Love this venue. Over a month ago, I was looking for a venue to host my son's 1st Birthday. Ultimately, I selected Wee Gather because of the services they offered and the excellent reviews on Yelp. I originally requested January 8th as the party date, but Sierra (my party coordinator) said this date was no longer available and suggested January 15th, which I booked. I had the Custom Gathering which included venue rental for two hours (I paid $125 for an extra hour, for a total of three hours), setup + clean up, tables + chairs, themed event design + styling + decorating of event space, coordinator for the planning process, themed decor + serve water, balloon garland w/custom colors, flowers, coffee bar, fully stocked mini fridge, use of projector and patio area, and access to additional furnishings (which will have extra fees depending on what you rent). This info is from the from Wee Gather website. I booked the space on 12/2/22, a little over a month before the event (01/15/23). At the time of booking, the Custom Gathering w/extra hour + rental of cooler cost me $1,150 ($975 for the Custom Gathering, $125 the extra hour, and $50 for the cooler rental). On the website, the Custom Gathering now starts at $1,299. My party coordinator, Sierra Mathews, was excellent in executing the Super Mario theme of my son's 1st Birthday Party and was super responsive whenever I had inspiration pictures or any small changes to the proposal. I even toured the venue a couple of weeks before the event. Sierra, Oceana, and Amber decorated the space so beautifully and was so gracious to help my family and I bring in the food we had catered from various restaurants of my choosing (you can also request catering from Wee Gather, who most likely have connections to caterers). The projector came in handy because I made a PowerPoint with transitions to show the growth of my son over the year and also the speaker for the music. If you are looking for an awesome space to host a kid's birthday or baby shower, this is the place. The cost is totally worth it because I am a busy mom and Sierra and her team literally did everything, I just provided the inspiration photos for the them. All the guests had a good time and loved the theme. Although my son was a little fussy throughout the party (not used to so many people), I think he secretly enjoyed the party. Thank you again Sierra, Oceana, and Amber! :-) Most Photos were taken by Sierra, only one was taken by me.

Here's the revised version:…read more The owner contacted me and offered a free event, which I declined, requesting a refund instead. She then offered a 20% refund and asked me to change my review, which I again declined. She claimed that despite paying for full event planning services, the event was subpar because I hadn't been involved in planning it. They didn't call. They didn't ask me to go their warehouse. They didn't do anything until the week of the event, when they tried to fit me into their random available times to walk them through my space via FaceTime. To clarify, I paid $2,000 for someone to plan and orchestrate an event. What I received was maybe a $200-$300 setup, and it's apparently my fault for not planning the event I paid someone to plan. She argued that I should have requested changes during the setup. However, I wasn't home at the time. The whole point of hiring this service was to arrive at a fully set-up event with my guests. When I arrived, they were still setting up as my guests were arriving (even though they were supposed to have been gone by then). So, there wasn't time to make changes, and it would have been an awkward conversation anyway. Instead of blaming me, they should have done the job they were paid to do or not sold the package in the first place. To add insult to injury, she compared this situation to eating a pizza and then requesting a refund. This was over $2k. It's not even close to ordering a pizza and asking for a refund. She ripped me off. I stand by my request for a full refund. She should have offered that refund on her own. This event was pitiful. I will never use their services again or recommend them to anyone.

It was truly a pleasure working with such a sweet and positive person, it made planning our wedding fun and much less stressful. Doris was so organized and kept us on track throughout the entire planning process. She accompanied us to vendor appointments, helped negotiate contracts and even came to my dress fittings. She worked with us endlessly to ensure every detail of the planning was complete. Her and her team arrived early day-of and worked with all the vendors and staff on site to ensure a seamless event. Doris was smiling, relaxed and professional the entire day. The space was designed beautifully, everything I envisioned it to be. She handled all set-up, timing, clean-up and vendor payments and left us to party all night long. We did not have to worry about a thing! We are thrilled to have had Doris throughout every step of the wedding to make our big day so enjoyable. Thanks San Diego Events Company! Highly recommended!

Wedding planning is exhausting and stressful and the wedding planner becomes a vital and intimate part of the process especially over a long planning period. It's extremely important to find someone who cares, advises, listens, is experienced and most importantly is available, and Nahid is just that. Nahid was excellent, caring and well organized and helped us with every detail from securing our venues till the moment we left the day after our wedding. She communicated with us frequently throughout the process understanding our vision, helping coordinate and advise, and at times keeping us calm! She is well versed in multicultural weddings and is patient with managing the expectations of family members as well. It felt like we had her on speed dial closer to the wedding! During the wedding planning stages, Nahid provided valuable insight negotiating, securing and reviewing venue contracts. With so many moving parts in our wedding, it was extremely helpful that she would find suitable and reliable vendors for us to pick from. Closer to the wedding, she came for site visits and was not afraid to provide her insight while respecting our vision. During the actual wedding festivities, her team worked incredibly hard to keep everything coordinated and running smoothly so we could enjoy our wedding weekend. She was able to manage any issues that came up with vendors or sites directly and smoothly so we wouldn't have to worry. We couldn't have been happier with the experience we had with Nahid and her team and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great wedding planner!

Nahid provided such a calming presence at all times, ensuring me that she was always one step ahead of me. Before I could even express concern about something that I was not sure that we had started, she would let me know that she had already begun the process and not to worry. Communication is key when it comes to planning any event, and Nahid made it a priority to answer my calls, my texts, and if she couldn't in that moment, she made sure to make arrangements to follow up with me at her earliest convenience. On the day of the wedding, Nahid and her team were on the floor before the first vendors arrived and until the last vendor left. I couldn't be more grateful for Nahid and her team, and hopefully we will be working on future events together!

Laura was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process--from answering every one of my questions to handling all the booth logistics. I don't think I ever waited more than an hour for a reply, and she was always so friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I designed my own template in Canva and sent it to Laura, and she placed the photos exactly where I asked (with no extra fees), which I really appreciated. On the wedding day, our attendant Angie was AMAZING. She didn't just set up and print photos--she was actively adjusting the booth for every group. Whether it was a big group, a smaller group, taller guests, or anything in between, she kept adjusting the frame to make sure everyone was captured perfectly. That level of attention made such a difference. The photo quality was great too. For the cost and everything we received, it was absolutely worth it.

From our very first exchange, she was incredibly professional, quick to respond, and so collaborative. We tossed ideas back and forth, and she generously offered her honest feedback and creative opinions. She even accommodated a few design changes before we landed on the final look, always with a great attitude. On the day of the event, she arrived exactly on time and set everything up incredibly fast. As you can see in the photos, the balloon garland was stunning and positioned absolutely perfectly with the banner I hung--it became our official photo area and a massive hit! Her pricing is highly competitive and totally comparable to other vendors in the area (both on and off Yelp), but her lightening fast communication and execution, Plus the fact that being I'm at Poway resident she's located in Poway, We are both small business owners. I love to support local small business owners so it was a no-brainer. Two thumbs up and my absolute highest recommendation!
