She was paramount in designing our table decor and tying everything together into a chic and stylish wedding. We were very picky, but she had patience with our process and showed us multiple iterations until we felt comfy, which we SO appreciated. She also helped us find decor vendors that matched the vibe we were going for, as well as helped us fine tune our ambitious color palette. It was so gratifying seeing everything come together. On our big day Heather and her team took care of everything! We didn't need to think about anything except marrying one another (and our coordinated first dance ). Heather is very sweet and reassuring which helped put us at ease. She even won over our 4 yr old nephew who can be difficult, and he did a great job as the ring bearer thanks to her! We highly recommend her for your big day!

WOW - where do I start? I've been waiting to give Lisa my review until I could post my wedding…read morephotos too, but believe me -- I have not stopped thinking about what magic she created for my wedding day! Let me say first that I was such a scrappy DIY bride, so I was really looking for a day-of coordinator I could trust. I did many calls with other coordinators and I was looking out for folx who really pressure you to have a cookie cutter wedding and play into the wedding industry. Lisa was not like that at all, she felt like one of my friends and was totally on board with working with the blank canvas of my venue. She was so easy to work with and made me feel really confident the day-of. She was hands down the best money spent from all my vendors at my wedding. Examples of Lisa's magic: - She was a serious partner in crime! I come from a background of event planning myself, so I recognized that I was a bit of a hyper detailed and logistically obsessed bride. I literally had made my production schedule before I had even met with her! This type of thing would normally irritate the hell out of an event coordinator, but honestly Lisa just felt like someone who was my partner. She saw what I had created and helped me build off of what I got started and she just made me feel like I wasn't in it alone anymore. - She would go above and beyond! We had a mix-up with our cocktail hour where our caterer came in and left some of the food on the side where it wasn't easily found. Lisa and her assistant jumped in immediately once she saw the need. She straight up started serving our hor d'orves to all of our guests so that the food we spent good money on wouldn't be hidden in the corner. - She handled extra coordination with ease! We had a mariachi parade and a shuttle coming in and out of our venue. She was able to coordinate all of this seamlessly with her assistant. I was worried about the coordination of our shuttle in particular- and without a single worry my guests were coming in and speaking so highly of the amazing coordination of the entire day. These are just a few examples of how amazing Lisa is. So do yourself a favor and give her a call for your special day. Thank you so much Lisa for all the ways you helped make my wedding the best weekend of my life.

Words can truly not express my gratitude for Lisa. Naturally, I'm a pretty good planner, but when…read moreit came to the wedding planning process I was pretty clueless. I started out interviewing wedding planners. Out of all of them, Lisa was hands down my favorite. I remember explaining to my husband instantly- she was the one and we needed to book her ASAP. Looking back at all we went through (Covid) Lisa was the best thing that ever happened to me. Below are some reasons why: Organized- Lisa makes it her #1 duty to stay organized. She kept all notes in one folder, sent us cal reminders on deadlines, never missed a beat and was always ready, organized & prepared. Connections- With all of the positive connections she has developed with vendors in the industry she was able to get us great deals on DJ, Photographer & flowers. Vision- Lisa completely understands individual couples visions and her portfolio is an example of this. In planning 3 (yes, 3- Covid) weddings, she adjusted the vision to each setting/time of day/vibe accordingly. Thoughtful- Those little things you see in the movies and never for a second think that's real life? Yeah, she will make it happen. *jLO wedding planner vibes* Kind- With all of the stress & pressure Lisa maintained a nothing but kind attitude. She rolled with the punches and made sure no one was stressed. Can make anything happen- after so many cancellations and doing away with things, 3 days before our wedding I asked Lisa if there was any way we could get a string quartet (yikes, I'm a nightmare) not only did Lisa make it happen, they were playing our songs (walk down the aisle, first dance, etc) that we were no longer having due to simplified Covid wedding. All and all, I can't say enough good things about Lisa as a wedding planner. If you are looking for someone that is a friend in the process, will understand your vision, organized, and just AMAZING- look no further.

I worked with Laura for the last 9 months for my wedding in Rancho Santa Fe Ca. We had about 125 guests. The wedding was flawless.

Brandi and her team created absolute MAGIC on our wedding day! Our ceremony site was already…read moregorgeous on its own, so we wanted to keep decoration light there. Finishing Touch added the perfect amount of flowers along the aisle and at the altar without taking away from the natural beauty. The number one thing (when it came to decor) that I wanted for our wedding was ceiling drapery with fairy lights and Finishing Touch DELIVERED! They are a preferred vendor of our venue (Grand Tradition Estate & Gardens) and the only vendor that the venue allows to hang things from the ceiling. We met with Brandi in the showroom to look at different centerpiece options, candle votives, flower options, and fabric colors. She was attentive and listened to everything - even picking up on things we didn't say but ended up being important. Brandi picked up the tone in the room very quickly when she asked about boutonnieres for the fathers and we said "just father of the groom". She suggested making a memorial boutonniere for my dad (father of the bride) and I loved that idea so much. She made every effort to tie the details together meaningfully and never pushed more expensive options. They had already started setting up when we arrived at the venue on wedding day and I was AMAZED. It was even more beautiful and magical than I had imagined! The centerpieces were fresh flowers and were gorgeous. The stairway and other flower accents were silk and they were a PERFECT match with the fresh flowers. So many people commented on the fairytale feel and how pretty the flowers were. We decided to have our flower girl's flower crown be made of silk flowers instead of fresh so she could keep it. It was beautifully crafted and made my flower girl feel like a princess! I drug my feet on getting my bouquet dried and pressed after the wedding and didn't get to it until about 4 days after. The person I went to said that usually flowers are a total loss at that point, but that she could tell I had an incredible florist because my flowers were still almost perfect! Using Finishing Touch is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! They made my fairytale dreams come true and I felt like a princess!

We went with Finishing Touch for our flowers for our wedding earlier this month, and we are so…read morehappy that we did. Brandi does an amazing, amazing, amazing job! You can tell from all of her experience that she knows what she's doing. We gave her an idea of the colors we wanted, and she was able to help design flowers and decor (e.g., candles, lanterns) that were better than anything we could have imagined. She was able to work within our budget to still make an absolutely stunning arrangement for both our ceremony and our reception. Even better was that she was able to use a mix of largely silk flowers (which looked gorgeous and cost less) as well as as real flowers for the bridal bouquets and groomsmen flowers, and every last detail looked perfect. She is communicative and flexible with you, and she made the daunting task of choosing wedding flowers into a stress free and beautiful experience. Would highly recommend anyone in the area looking for a florist to go with Brandi and Finishing Touch!

Looking back over a year later, I am still incredibly grateful to Ana for helping me through one of…read morethe most important days of my life! Our wedding took place on February 4, 2024, at the Mission Inn Hotel in Riverside. Due to a tight budget, I decided to plan all the pre-wedding details myself (which, while rewarding, was extremely exhausting -- I wouldn't necessarily recommend it!). However, I knew I would need a professional coordinator for the day of the wedding itself. Also, the Mission Inn Hotel has a preferred vendor list, and by choosing vendors from that list, we were able to avoid additional vendor fees. To be honest, I initially chose Ana because she was the most affordable option on their list. But after working with her, I realized she was absolutely essential to the success of our wedding day! Ana has many years of experience in the wedding industry and is incredibly knowledgeable about every step of the process -- she even holds a minister's license. On the day of the wedding, she flawlessly managed the timeline, handled unexpected issues with ease, and allowed us to fully enjoy every precious moment without stress. I can confidently say that without Ana's support, our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was. As first-time bride and groom who had no prior experience with wedding planning, we wholeheartedly recommend Ana as your wedding coordinator. If you are looking for someone reliable and professional, trust me -- you will be so thankful you chose her!

I want to start off by saying the venue itself is nice. The ceremony area is very pretty and was…read morewhat I was looking for. Very quickly after working with Priscilla I realized she would not respond to all of my text messages trying to confirm details to my wedding or questions my vendors wanted to ask. This continued until I confronted her for her to reply and say she just coordinates the day of the wedding and does not do "chores" for guests. She was very unpleasant to deal with from this day moving forward, although I tried to look passed that. Priscilla also let me know she would not be at my wedding the day of abruptly soon after because she was going to Vegas last minute. She has no customer service for someone who's job is exactly that. My husband and I were on a budget and only had 80 guests; we wanted to put 250 towards the bar (which Priscilla advised we can do) and then have guests pay out of pocket because we didn't want to host an open bar. When we proposed this anount to Priscilla she basically told me I wasn't allowed to put 250 because it wasn't enough considering most of my guests did not drink we felt it was fair enough. The day of my wedding, Priscilla (unbeknownst to me at the time) had my florist place the florals where she wanted them and then called the photographer I paid for to go and take pictures of the venue before any guests arrived so that she can post them for her social media account in hopes to "sell" the venue. My wedding was delayed because the florals were not at the ceremony but instead inside where she selfishly wanted them. I also never got to take photos with my bridesmaids and in the bridal room because of Priscilla's selfish requests she made with OUR photographer that we paid for. I was able to also confirm this with my photographer. On top of that, Majority of my guests who were my bridal party did not get appetizers that my husband and I paid for per person and her reasoning is because my guests were not "seated" which was highly disappointing and if that was the case it should've been disclosed in the contracted that she breached. Mind you the plates were 62 per person, you can imagine we spent a pretty good coin on the food alone. The AC was off and it was very hot in the venue that for most of the night my guests had to walk outside to get some air. The power also went out in the middle of the wedding for at least 20-30 mins which made my dj and Photo Booth go out (both things I paid for) Priscilla's excuse was "your dj's amps" made it go out. She knew we had a dj coming and a Photo Booth area, the venue clearly cannot handle the amount of power it takes to have a wedding. Now she is only offering to have a meeting with the Manager. Priscilla is advising I've been more than compensated and will not offer any compensation for any of this. I also advised Priscilla not to contact my photographer because she will not be sending her any photos we paid for. My photographer is advising Priscilla keeps calling her and texting her behind my back trying to disregard what I said. She is trying to obtain photos that she did NOT pay for. Look elsewhere if you can instead of booking this venue, and if you do I hope you have a better experience than I did.
