Eh, I think not. Anyway, it was about 11pm on a Thursday evening and I needed to have some flowers delivered to a sick relative the very next day. So I left an email message asking that they please call me at work as soon as they receive the message. Around 10ish a nice lady from the shop called me, took my order and told me the flowers would be delivered that day at the time I wanted them delivered all for about $25 less than 1-800-flowers. My relative received the flowers on time and told me that the arrangement was absolutely beautiful!!!

In my case it was the flowers. I know, but what can I say? Not a girly girl into those kind of details. So exactly one month out from our wedding date (eek!) I started researching florists local to our wedding venue. Having left the flowers so late in the planning, we were very limited on our budget, and after several phone calls and email inquiries resulted in "sorry, we only do a weddings with a minimum budget of $1,500" and so on, that familiar bridal panic started to clutch at my chest. Oh God! What will we do? Our planner recommended Sarah Hinton at Rincon Floral. After sending an email inquiry, I heard back the very same day. Our budget was no issue and we arranged a meeting for the following weekend. I arrived with NO CLUE what I wanted other than orchids for our cake. Sarah had a lovely slideshow presentation for us to peruse while she took care of the business end. I ended up going with white anemones for the bridesmaids, and a beautiful mix of white orchids and cream roses for my own bouquet (each choice matched the dresses in question impeccably!). Compliments abounded the day of, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

I'll admit, our vision wasn't the easiest to understand but Suzie and Denise seemingly read our minds and made our thoughts turn out beautiful. The desired look was a summer wedding full of colorful wild flowers with pinks and greens as the base colors. If you're looking for a florist for weddings or any other type of event, PacWest Blooms will surely go above and beyond for you too.

PacWest Blooms did the most spectacular job with our wedding florals (personal flowers, ceremony…read moreand reception, and some hanging greens around disco balls). I have not seen more beautiful, unique designs. Suzie and her team worked with us over multiple virtual and in-person meetings to discuss our style and vision, create a lookbook, and design something that was really unique to us. The florals were definitely well worth the cost (and less than what other florists had quoted us) and really made our wedding design vision and aesthetic come to life. The PacWest Blooms team are real artists, just give them a general sense of what you'd like and the creative freedom to work their magic! The florals were 5/5, beyond our wildest dream! We also did month and day of coordination with PacWest Blooms. Suzie is really warm and kind and really takes the time to get to know clients, which made us feel very comfortable and at ease. Some parts or our experience felt somewhat disorganized and stressful, however, such as no or very late responses to emails, missed or late meetings, and the day-before rehearsal coordination. Ultimately, though, we had a pretty complicated wedding with many vendors, and Suzie and her team made sure the whole day came together beautifully and that we were able to enjoy it with little to no stress. For that, we are very grateful.

We cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Sophie, Xochilt, and the Amazing Day…read moreEvents team for our May 2024 Ojai wedding! We were referred to Sophie from a family friend in the Ventura wedding business community and we are so glad we decided to work with her and her team. From initial meetings to the big day, the ADE team showed up in all the ways we needed them through both the fun and stressful moments of wedding planning. Our wedding day was more wonderful than we ever could have imagined and it would not have been possible without Sophie and the ADE team! A few things that stood out. Sophie coached us through some challenges with a venue we had contracted with before we started working with ADE that fell through. It was perhaps the most stressful part of all our planning and we were so appreciative of all the guidance and suggestions. Sophie recommended some wonderful vendors to us - many of which we ended up hiring and being so pleased with! We got married at Taft Gardens which is an incredibly beautiful venue but doesn't have parking, bathrooms, a kitchen, lighting, tables, chairs, ... anything really :) . Sophie and team embraced the challenge of working at a remote/new venue! How Sophie, Xochilt and team showed up on our wedding weekend was the best part of all. From our rehearsal on Friday, Sophie so clearly established that any questions, issues, concerns would be handled by her and encouraged everyone to let my husband and I just enjoy ourselves and soak it all in. The ADE team made the wedding day feel so effortless and so stress-free for me and my husband, even though there were little things that came up that they had to pivot to accommodate. Our family and friends all loved Sophie and the ADE team and how they showed up for us on our biggest weekend. 10/10 recommend working with Sophie and ADE! Some pics by @wearemattandjess

This review is long overdue!

The whole thing was beautiful and went seamlessly, even my family and wedding party agreed! Everything was so organized, and I appreciated their responsiveness and diligence throughout the process. I loved working with them so much, I recommended Sophie to my cousin who is getting married this year and am so exited to attend her wedding because I know it will also be Amazing!

Cheers Event Rentals was very responsive to my inquiry and their prices were very competitive. The shower was only going to have about 35 people so it was a pretty small party and yet Cheers was very accommodating to our needs. Talking to Jessica on the phone was reassuring that all of the items were going to be delivered without any problems. Cheers came up with a great idea of delivering everything to the park in their trailer on Saturday morning so we could unload and then leaving the trailer so that we could load the chairs, tables and linens back into the trailer for them to pick up later. Since our event was small, all the other vendors were going to delivery the items to my house on Friday and pick up on Monday. This really saved us the trouble and time to move everything to and from our house on the day of the shower. We met Jessica at the park in the morning and everything worked out great with the convenience of having their trailer right there when we were done. Working with Jessica and Cheers Events was a very good experience and I would suggest contacting them if you are in need to rent items for your event. Our experience with Cheers was great and I'm sure yours will be too!!

I hired Heather for my destination wedding out in Ventura California. BEST DECISION I HAVE MADE FOR…read moreMY WEDDING. She got all my vendors lined up (all I had to do was pay), she gave me more than what I could ask for esthetically, she is not only an amazing planner, but an amazing human being. If you're wanting a wedding planner that knows her thing, its her. She helped me all the way from Oklahoma. Thank you Heather, Three Sisters Team, and her in-house florist Courtney. You made my wedding everything I wanted and more.

Disappointing experience with full-service wedding planning:…read more We hired Heather at Three Sisters Events for the "Whole Shebang" full-service wedding planning package and terminated our agreement after over seven months. It was nowhere near what we expected or what was advertised. I was the bride and Heather's primary point of contact, so most communication went through me. My husband was involved behind the scenes. I kept him updated, we discussed concerns together, and both agreed to move on. To be fair, Heather was responsive when we reached out, especially by text. But that was also the problem. We were almost always initiating conversations, asking for updates, and following up. At one point, I intentionally stopped initiating contact for over a month to see if she would take the lead. Nothing changed. Our package advertised monthly meetings, design assistance, budgeting, vendor coordination, guest accommodations, and stationery support. In seven months, we had only TWO planning meetings. Other services never happened or required repeated prompting. We raised our concerns multiple times. Heather would say things like "trust the professional," "enjoy the process," or explain that she adapted her approach to each couple. We wanted to trust her and enjoy being engaged, but kept wondering what was being handled. Things might improve briefly, but we'd end up right back where we started. The budgeting was especially frustrating. Instead of helping us understand what was realistic for our guest count, rentals, and vision, Heather put together numbers that seemed to fit on paper. Once actual vendor quotes came in, we realized how far off they were. Our new planner finally gave us a realistic picture of the costs. We weren't expecting someone to magically make everything cheaper. We needed experienced guidance to make informed decisions. Design was another huge disappointment. The mockups were basic, and our new planner discovered that the table sizes and quantities in Heather's reception layout didn't actually fit the venue space. That's the kind of thing I expected a professional wedding planner to know. We researched rentals and layouts without the guidance we paid for. Looking back, those seven months were incredibly stressful. We hired a full-service planner to help manage things we didn't know how to handle ourselves. We wanted to be involved in planning our wedding, not responsible for managing the person we'd hired to plan it. That wasn't what we expected from the highest-tier package. Eventually, we hired another planner just months before our wedding. Yes, it meant losing our deposit and paying someone else, but the difference was night and day. Our new planner took ownership, used structured planning tools to keep us organized and involved, communicated proactively, helped us make realistic decisions, and brought our design vision together. For the first time, we actually felt like we could enjoy the process. After switching, we requested a partial refund of $900 from the $1,836 deposit we paid, considering the services we felt we hadn't received. Heather never responded. I hesitated to write this and waited until after our wedding so I could reflect rather than react out of frustration. There's more I could share, but Google reviews have limits! I wish we'd understood what to expect before hiring Three Sisters Events. Heather may be a better fit for coordinating a wedding you've mostly planned yourself. But if you need true full-service planning, I'd strongly encourage you to ask exactly what that support includes. We genuinely wish we'd switched sooner. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of, but that success came after the difficult and costly decision to replace a planner who wasn't delivering the support we needed. We found someone who actually delivered on the promises of full-service planning. Based on our experience, we would not recommend Heather or Three Sisters Events for full-service wedding planning.

Our review is long overdue, and now that things have settled down, we wanted to share our AMAZING…read moreexperience with Tiana and her team! We found Tiana through an IG ad, where she promoted Exotic Green Garden along with an all-inclusive wedding package at Lake Lindero Golf Course. The Exotic Green Garden IG page looked beautiful, and the package was within our budget, so we decided to reach out to learn more. Upon meeting Tiana, she was super friendly and honest about the costs, what can be personalized, and was patient in answering our many questions. We left the meeting feeling like we made a new friend, but still wanted to explore other options as she was the very first vendor we met in our wedding planning journey. After a week or so of reaching out to other florists, we decided that nobody could beat what Tiana offered, and her lovely personality was a huge plus. It was an easy decision to book Tiana as our florist, coordinator, and the wedding package for our wedding on October 4th, 2025 at Lake Lindero Golf Course. Leading up to our wedding, Tiana was very communicative with us every step of the way. It was so easy to reach her and hear back in a timely manner, whether it was through email, text, or a phone call. She was always ready to address our questions and concerns, and put our mind at ease. She even gave us suggestions on how to save money with our florals, which we truly appreciated. In addition to Tiana, we also worked with Adena (her sister) and Lance (her father and our officiant). We met Lance via FaceTime a few months before so he could learn about us, and he was so kind and funny that we knew he'd do a wonderful job making our ceremony go smoothly. He even had an additional call with us and sent reminder texts to make sure we were aware of what's needed for the day. We met Adena at our wedding rehearsal, where we learned she would be our day of coordinator instead. We were a little surprised since we thought Tiana would do this. But Adena re-assured us that she was familiar with the schedule and during the rehearsal, we were relieved to see how personable she was, and her professionalism matched that of Tiana and Lance, and we knew we were in good hands. On our wedding day, we received so many compliments from our guests on how much they loved the florals. We didn't see Tiana on our wedding day, but definitely felt how much love and care she put into them as they turned out beautiful, like exact replicas of our Pinterest photos. Several of our guests even snuck some away, which we didn't know till the end of the night lol! Our guests also praised Lance on how he conducted our ceremony and made it feel personable to us. Throughout the wedding, Adena constantly checked in on us to make sure we were hydrated, feeling ok, and keeping us informed about the schedule. She even jumped in to help cut a roast pig, which we did not expect her to do as we were expecting a specific guest to do it (who ended up not attending). We loved that Adena was so on top of everything the whole evening, while having a smile the whole time. We still reminisce about our wedding day, and how wonderful it was thanks to Tiana, Adena, and Lance. Even though it's been a few months, our guests still mention how lovely our wedding was, which makes us so happy to know that we chose a fantastic team. We highly recommend Tiana and her family/team for your wedding or special event. Thank you Tiana, Adena, and Lance for making our day feel extra special!!!

My wife and I hired Lindsey and her team to provide full-service event design and planning for our…read moreLong Island, New York wedding. From our initial phone consultation a year and a half prior to our wedding, Lindsey put us at complete ease with her professionalism, attention to detail, motivation, excitement and genuine desire to truly understand our wedding vision and bring it to life. Lindsey and her team were everything we could have asked for and everything we didn't know we would need. To say Lindsey was "on top of things" is a gross understatement. Lindsey is a visionary, a designer, an organizer, a planner, an advocate, a friend. She is beyond talented, skilled, professional, direct, responsive, creative, tolerant, and extremely patient. She is the person you want and need to have in your corner. She is the person who will transform your vision into a reality beyond what you could ever imagine. She is the person who WILL find a way to execute every detail perfectly despite any obstacles that arise. Lindsey has a perfect balance of professionalism and a down to earth supportive nature that makes you feel like your best friend is by your side the entire way through but is also willing to pounce the second something needs to be addressed or confronted. We were NOT always the easiest brides to work with, as we had a difficult time articulating our vision and went back and forth often with our concept ideas. But despite our indecisiveness, Lindsey was able to reign us in and really found a way to help us identify exactly what we wanted. As someone who always needs to be in control and micromanage every detail, it was challenging for me to accept the idea of handing over the reigns and trusting that someone else could execute accordingly .... but I could not be happier that I trusted Lindsey and handed those reins over. It not only made my life SO much easier, but also resulted in an absolute PERFECT event that I would have NEVER been able to pull off half as well on my own! The planning, coordination and design aspects of the process were absolutely effortless on our end. Once our vision was cemented, Lindsey and her team were able to magically bring everything to life beyond our expectations by handling all the tedious backend details that we honestly had no time or patience for! In the very beginning of the planning phase I found myself "checking in" frequently to ensure certain things were going to be handled; however, I quickly realized that my need to "check in" was completely unnecessary as Lindsey was always 10 steps ahead. People warned us about how stressful the actual wedding day can be, so we had mentally prepared ourselves to feel emotionally drained, anxious, overwhelmed, etc. Let me tell you, this could not be farther from the reality of our experience on our day; it could NOT have gone any smoother. The entire day was effortless on our ends, our only responsibility was to show up. My wife and I felt completely and utterly at ease and relaxed. As a direct result of Lindsey and her team's attentiveness, we never had to ask for a thing; they knew exactly what we needed before we even realized we needed it! We also entrusted Lindsey with the responsibility of selecting our photography and videography teams, which both ended up being INCREDIBLE and huge contributors to the success of our event! Having these teams collaborate on our event together felt more like having life-long friends surrounding us as opposed to having a group of strangers in our space who were being compensated to get a job done. In the days following, many people reached out to enthusiastically tell us how "perfect" the event was; many insisted this was the best wedding they had ever attended; many commented on the impeccable timing and spacing from one activity to the next. We even had more than one of our friend's husbands say, "this is how a wedding should be done". My wife and I made an additional vow on our wedding night to NEVER again hold an event WITHOUT the involvement of Lindsey and her team!

From our first talk I knew Lindsey really knew what she was doing and knew I needed to ditch the other wedding planner to work with her. Best decision I made! From the very start Lindsey jumped right in and went to work on making my dream a reality. She was friendly, easy to communicate, and most importantly she got stuff done! 2 months in to working together we had almost all my vendors booked and a big weight was lifted off my shoulders knowing that everything was at last coming together. Magnolia Event Design also uses the Aisle Planner Software which is a brides dream come true! I loved being able to login and see/ manage every wedding detail from being able to pull in images of design I liked to seeing where I was at on our budget. The day of our wedding I was able to relax because I knew Lindsey was going to put it all together perfectly and I can happily say not only did nothing go wrong but our wedding exceeded all of my expectations thanks to MEG. From start to finish Lindsey and her team took care of us and made the planning process easy and fun. I can't say enough how grateful I am that we got work with her and would highly recommend her services to any bride looking for an amazing wedding planner

While we hadn't originally budgeted for a planner, we are so happy we used White Sage! After numerous conversations with overpriced planners, we began to get really nervous that a planner wouldn't fit in our budget. Luckily, I received Brooke's name from our florist, Ojai Blooms. They mentioned they worked with her often and that she and her team were "incredible". From the moment we spoke with Brooke, we knew she was the perfect fit for our big day. She was professional, yet relaxed, extremely knowledgeable and from the start, very helpful with all of our questions. We hired her as our 30-day coordinator after our first conference call, but after it was all said and done, our only regret is not hiring her to help with the whole planning process. She's THAT GOOD! We loved that Brooke and her team were available and willing to help at any time. You can tell she and her team know what they are doing and Brooke always made us feel comfortable with our planning decisions. My husband and I loved that Brooke was direct, yet kind and enthusiastic. She always had our best interest at heart and genuinely cared that we had the "best day ever" which we definitely did! Overall, our experience with White Sage was fantastic. On our wedding day, we both kept commenting on how Brooke and her team were always a step ahead. If anything came up, which is bound to happen, one of her team members was on it immediately. We were able to sit back and enjoy our day completely!

As the wedding weekend approached, we were blown away by how seamlessly everything came together. Jen, Brooke, and Megan were an absolute dream team. They took care of every detail--from large vendor coordination and rental setup to the smallest personal touches that made the weekend feel uniquely ours. We were especially impressed when unexpected weather forced a last-minute dinner location change. The White Sage team handled it flawlessly, and the transition was so smooth that our guests had no idea it hadn't been part of the original plan. Jen's attention to detail, calm presence, and ability to stay composed under pressure truly set her apart. We not only felt supported by her expertise but genuinely enjoyed every conversation we had with her. We'll actually miss our planning calls--she made the process feel collaborative, grounded, and even fun. Thanks to White Sage, we were able to fully relax and be present the entire weekend, knowing that everything was being expertly handled. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they'd ever attended--and we agree! We cannot recommend White Sage highly enough. If you're looking for a team that will not only bring your vision to life but make the experience enjoyable and stress-free, this is it.
