If I could give over 5 stars I would! I met Heather through our photographer Alyssa, and recommend her and a group she works close with to all my friends who are planning weddings. I don't even know how to put into words how we feel about them. Heather went above and beyond my expectations in helping plan an our elopement. She delivered our vision, and more! Planning an elopement/wedding can be stressful, and working with Heather and her team made it so so smooth. She is organized and quick to work, not to mention compassionate, caring and overall the best. Thank you Heather and Willow Tree Weddings in executing our dream wedding!

Due to COVID-19, we had to cancel our original wedding. I was having a very difficult time trying to figure out what to do next.. and then I found Heather! From our first phone call, I felt comfortable and confident with Heather. She listened to me and encouraged me to keep moving forward. She found us our dream venue and helped bring my vision to life! She helped with every question I had no matter how large or small. She is very organized and loves what she does. The wedding day this past weekend (7*25*2020) was PERFECT! My husband & I felt so at peace the entire day and a huge part of that was heather and her team. The day could not have gone better. I would highly recommend Willow Tree Events if you are looking to host a successful event!

We hired Heather as our Day of Ccordinator/month of coordinator for our wedding up in Big Bear. She was AMAZING! Just as things started to get stressful as the wedding came closer, Heather stepped in and reached out to all our vendors to make sure everything was on track. We could tell immediately how great her attention to detail was. After our wedding rehearsal, I wasn't nervous at all about how the day would run because I could tell she had everything under control. I gave her a lot of different instructions on how I wanted things set up & she pulled everything off perfectly!! On top of her being great at what she does, she's also the nicest person & made everyone feel so comfortable! 10/10 would recommend!

Love you Heather!

Heather and her team are amazing! I found Willow Tree Weddings through my venue, Shay Meadows Ranch and Resort, in Big Bear, California. We immediately booked Heather after booking the venue and booked an initial phone conversation with her. I am a pretty type A gal, so I utilized the preferred vendor list and had booked most vendors within a couple weeks of booking the venue. Because of this, we did the "Month-of" package. This included the initial planning call and a call to finalize everything the month of the wedding. She however answered all my calls, texts, and emails during the entire process and always made sure to get back to me in a professional manner. She was delightful and calm, as we were nervous and excited. She walked us through the process and was a pillar of peace throughout the entire planning process. Heather and her team were incredibly responsive and assuring. Leading up to our wedding day, we thought there was going to be a historic hurricane... in Big Bear... and Heather went above and beyond to secure tenting and reassure us. We honestly could not have had the same experience without Heather and her team. I never ever want to plan a wedding again, but if I had to, I would immediately hire her and her lovely team. All the best, The Pauls!

Here she is putting back all the decor that was rescued during the storm!

A quick summary of our wedding day. It was beautiful! Weather was great that morning. Girls present, makeup and hair great, boys present! We have a wonderful ceremony, and then our vows started. And so did the mini tropical storm!!! It was so unexpected and scary! Everything was outdoor, Heather and her assistant literally saved my wedding from disaster. They rushed and moved all the decorations before anything was ruined saved everything! I would have been so ruined without her help and quick thinking, only something an experienced planner would jump in on. She turned my day around and left me so at ease, me and my husband had the best day ever because of her! Extra shower blessings and all! Heather was also amazing at being together our complicated connections. We had a cultural wedding, Mexican and Zambian! Coordinating cultures and families wasn't an issue with heather being on top of all the differences and different ceremonies we had. Like our outfit changes! Going back, I first got connected with Heather a little over a year before our wedding. Right off the bat she was so welcoming to the stressful wedding planning world! Without even signing a contract she gave me advice and even venues she recommended. She helped with my venue booking, finding an amazing photographer, delicious and great to work with cater, well known makeup artist and our florist. She was understanding with my style as well as my budget, I never felt pressured to spend more money or choose her preferred vendors. Heather went out of her way to acquire wedding games and different decor for us. She was so easy to get in contact with and always responded to text or email same day. Her step by step planning was also on point! Appointments were scheduled with appropriate timing, she had thorough to do lists encompassing things I would have never though of! She handed me a break down of every literal minute from 10am-10pm over a month before the wedding. I mean I had nothing to stress about at that point. Hiring her was the best wedding investment I made, love you Heather!

From the first phone call with Heather I was so thankful to have found her! She is so kind and sweet and put my mind at ease. I was truly overwhelmed with planning my daughters wedding and she helped me in every way from finding the perfect vendors to taking charge for a flawless wedding day! It was the best wedding I have ever been too! I am forever grateful

See all

Although we had a big blooper, Heather and her team pivoted, stayed later, and helped through the process.

I'm a marketing producer by trade, so I felt confident in much of the planning, but the coordination in the lead-up and on the day was where we knew we needed a big assist. We found Your Day Your Way through WeddingWire and after a quick video call with Shanee, we felt like we'd be taken care of. We were assigned Peggy as our coordinator and we had a blast working with her. We opted into the partial coordinator package; which was perfect for our needs. Peggy was available for random questions via text from the minute we signed our agreement. She asked all the questions I'd never know to ask at our venue site visit. Communication was seamless and easy. Peggy and team made our day a massive success, would absolutely recommend!

She always answered our questions quickly, showed up on time, and made communication easy and stress-free. She even attended our venue walkthrough and helped us with our layout ideas and placement of items. She and her team did an incredible job decorating our venue! Everything was placed perfectly, down to the smallest details. Our ceremony and entire day flowed so smoothly, and we know it wouldn't have happened without her guidance and support. Your day your way is a one stop shop ! We booked our service team, and Bartendar through her! (Best bartending service EVER) all of our guest talked about how interactive the Bartendar was! At one point he was passing out shots on a tray, our guest loved that they didn't have to leave the dance floor to grab a drink! We truly couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. Thank you for helping make our day absolutely perfect!

She made us feel so taken care of during what can be such a stressful and chaotic time. I truly can't thank her enough for how on top of everything she was and how much she handled for us behind the scenes. On the wedding day, she completely blew us away--arriving early, staying on top of every detail, and making sure both we and all of our vendors had everything we needed at all times. Honestly, I don't know what we would have done without her. If anything didn't go according to plan, I would have never known because Katie had everything handled which is exactly what you want in a coordinator. Not to mention, she is so easy to talk to and brings such a fun, positive energy while still keeping everything running smoothly and on schedule. I'm beyond grateful we found her and would 100% recommend her to anyone. Thank you again for making our day (and entire weekend) so special, we appreciate you so much!!! - Amanda + Zachary

I reached out to Cross + Swan Events to help me plan my wedding. Before choosing them, I had a…read moremeeting with the owners Jacqui and Sydney who took the time to listen to what I needed in a planning company & planners and tailored a quote to fit my needs. I hired them about 8 months prior to my wedding and they were there every step of the way, with monthly meetings to keep me on track of what I needed to do, up until the month prior where the girls took over and ran with it all. I had the utmost confidence in them and was able to relax and enjoy the last month before my wedding, which can be a stressful time. My wedding consisted of a beautiful venue in Joshua Tree that was minimal with amenities/services included, so I had to hire just about everyone - food, cake, rentals, dj, servers, bartenders, flowers, etc! Cross + Swan did an excellent job of coordinating all of the vendors and keeping them on schedule. I had numerous guests at my wedding come up to me and tell me that my planners were the stars that day, nailing every detail and keeping the wedding going at a good pace with the timeline and also keeping everyone happy & worry free. Jacqui was amazing with my vendors the day of the wedding & also made the most beautiful signage for an extra fee for me (welcome signs, seating chart, bar & cake menus). Sydney was great with going the extra mile and driving me, my husband and photographer out into Joshua Tree National Park to capture some amazing photos after our ceremony. When you meet with wedding planners and they stress the importance of the investment in a planner, believe them - it's SO TRUE. They made my wedding day one to remember - and one that was truly stress-free and the best days of my life. HIGHLY recommend Cross + Swan.

I already miss our planning calls but will look for any excuse to hire her in the future.

THANK YOU BONNIE & TEAM FOR THE BEST WEDDING VENUE EVER!! I will start this review off by saying…read morethat I photograph weddings, so having a gorgeous scenic spot to marry my boyfriend/fiancé of 11 years was the #1 on our list and The Pond (+ the overcast weather haha) DELIVERED. And the #2 thing on the list was having a variety of backdrops to photograph against which we also found here no question. We first toured The Pond and met with Bonnie (the owner) back in September 2022. We had already toured 5 other venues and this ended up being our second to last tour and last day of touring. The second I stepped on the premise I knew we had found our place. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, breathtaking, and well taken care of. The pond is also full of bright koi fish and other cute little friends like ducks walk around. I felt like we were already late in booking a 2023 date, but to our luck they had May 5, 2023 open which was also 11th anniversary! Easy and done. This hidden gem venue has charm and is the most unique and scenic venue I've ever been to. The main selling points for us in addition to the views were: 1. Full Bridal and Groom houses to relax and get ready in. We each had 8 bridesmaids and groomsmen + our family so it was very important to us that we could find a place that could accommodate our large party to get ready in. They also have separate parking for the wedding party right next to the Bridal/Groom houses and another larger parking lot for guests which is also free for them 2. Fun and unique areas for all of our guests to spread out and explore. Including the gazebo overlooking the pond, fire pit (for s'mores), and cove underneath the gazebo to experience a waterfall. There was also a ton of space for all our vendors to set up including a Boba Table and Photobooth 3. Affordable price that included 1 hour rehearsal the day before, 10 hours on the premise for the wedding, and our package also included the DJ and Bartender team. This was great because those vendors are already used to working with Bonnie's team and DJ Richie killed our lighting throughout the venue as well! They also set up heat lamps for us when it got colder at night 4. DIY everything! I have been looking forward to planning my wedding my whole life and had a lot of decoration and vendor ideas. Bonnie and our Coordinator team (YourDayYourWay) helped make all our ideas and plans come to life and were gracious about accommodating everything we asked for including keeping the sails down in the ceremony space for our photos, letting us do special cups for boba, and letting us choose our catering (5 Elementos Food Truck). The whole event was 100% customized by us and this was so cool since I know a lot of venues have strict rules they never bend. And for anyone who may be deterred reading this because they don't want to DIY everything, I promise the venue still looks great just as it is even without all the extra stuff. Seriously! 5. They allow sparkler exits! Not many venues in CA allow this and I was stoked they had the perfect spot for it If you happen to stumble upon my review and are wondering if you should book The Pond for your next event/wedding, just do it! :D

The venue is a gorgeous, beautifully kept "hidden gem" with incredible attention to detail.

The staff's expertise was truly top-notch--they were accommodating, professional, and made the entire night run seamlessly.
