Gabi was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

She has an incredible ability to take your story, your values, and your relationship and turn it into something that feels authentic and deeply moving... not generic or templated in any way. What really set her apart was how she coached our officiant (who is also a close friend). She made sure he felt confident, prepared, and able to deliver the ceremony in a way that felt natural and heartfelt. It made such a difference in the moment. Our ceremony ended up being one of the most special parts of the entire day, and we owe that to Gabi. If you're looking for something truly personal and beautifully crafted, she's it.

I have been photographing weddings in the Bay Area (and beyond) for 30 years and have the…read moreopportunity to work with some wonderful people in industry. Patty has always impressed! Weddings are an expression of the love and personality of the B&G. Patty works with couples to create events that are uniquely their own. Strategizing, organizing, and working on every last detail. Then she connects her clients with the perfect vendors to make sure their vision comes true. When it counts most (wedding day) with her charming personality yet decisive personality, she executes weddings that flow with grace. As a photographer I have follow up conversations with the B&G after their wedding. The always give Patty the highest praise. Patty makes it happen! Todd Rafalovich

Patty is absolutely amazing and I loved working with her!…read more I'm getting married in October in Carmel and was looking for a wedding planner to help me find wedding vendors, review contracts, and find a location for our rehearsal dinner and welcome party. Every Last Detail was the first company I called. I'm normally the type of person who calls around to explore options and find the best price, but Patty was so personable and made what felt like a daunting task seem fun so I booked her right away. I'm so glad I went with my gut because I couldn't imagine working with anyone else! Patty was very helpful and responsive. She also went above and beyond for multiple tasks. We live a few hours away from Carmel and wanted to plan a trip to visit some rehearsal dinner locations. We ended up planning this with only a few days turnaround time. I expected given the time crunch that Patty would give us a list of venues to check out based on our criteria, but she actually planned the whole trip for us! She introduced us to points of contact at each venue, scheduled each tour, and even mapped them out so we visited places that were in close proximity back to back and we didn't have to keep trekking back and forth between locations. It took all the stress off of planning and coordinating. I also know that finding spots that we would like was not an easy task in and of itself. My fiance, future mother in law, and myself all had some different/ vague ideas for the event. Patty did a great job finding locations that fit what each of us was looking for. We were so impressed, my future mother in law even hired her again after the fact to coordinate the day of the rehearsal dinner. I would highly recommend Patty and Every Last Detail for event planning!

Her communication with us leading up to our wedding was excellent. She is very well organized, accommodating and professional. Ben our photographer (arranged through Sherilyn) captured our day beautifully, including some outdoor shot in the gazebo that turned out adorable. The price was very reasonable and location was not far from Cannery Row where we had a lovely reservation for dinner at The Chart House. See the owner Jimmy! He helped everything go smoothly for our group. An overall absolutely wonderful day. Would highly recommend. A By-The Sea Wedding!! :) Thank you Sherilyn!

Jack truly personalized our ceremony and was very thorough and detail-oriented. He originally met with us over Zoom and had even taken the time to personalize our wedding ceremony ahead of time and went over it. We knew instantly we wanted to hire him! Jack was then available by text and email for any changes to the ceremony or updates about the wedding. Our guests loved that he did not do the "repeat after me" vows and simply stated them for us to say, almost as if we had memorized the vows! Jack is an open-minded and non-judgemental minister who wants your wedding ceremony to reflect your love and does offer bilingual and LGBTQ+ wedding ceremonies as well. Jack is so friendly and completely put us at ease on the day of the wedding. He was hilarious and rolled with the punches, especially when I tried grabbing the mic from him accidentally when saying my vows and then when my husband put my ring on the wrong finger! Jack was very accommodating especially with covid-19, we ended up having a vaccinated-only wedding ceremony and reception. Jack let us know he is fully vaccinated, had received his booster, and continuously gets covid tested every two weeks for the safety of his clients. He was willing to wear a mask as well for the ceremony should we have asked. I would highly recommend Jack for his friendliness and professionalism.
