All of our guests were blown away with them, and how they handled everything with a smile. The beauty of our day was framed perfectly, choreographed with precision, and bubbling with laughter, fun, and more memories then we could ever list! Thank you, a 1000 times for taking the reins, and helping us create the most beautiful 3 days for us, and all our guests!

My wife and I had already done a lot of the planning for our wedding and in accordance with our…read morevenues requirements, we hired Nam as our wedding coordinator for a 30 day out and day of service. We were initially very impressed with his initiative to get started ahead of that timeline and to offer to take over many responsibilities that we did not ask or expect him to do. With less than 6 weeks to the wedding he started missing his own self imposed deadlines to get back to us with various tasks which started making us uneasy as we would have already have taken care of them if it was still left to us. My wife had a conversation with him 3 weeks prior to the wedding regarding that issue and his general unresponsiveness, he accepted responsibility and put us at ease. While we really like his calm demeanor both leading up to and during the day of the wedding, he was not on top of the itinerary from the beginning to the end and we both felt like he was simply in over his head. Others stepped in numerous times to do his job (notably our photographer/videographer) and help keep the wedding on track with the timeline we had created. Certain things were asked of him several times and yet neither he nor his two helpers (who we were mostly impressed with) delivered. For a smaller wedding (ours had over 200 people) it is very possible that he would do a good job, we however regretted our decision to hire him. Also, we contacted him a couple times regarding items he/his team did not retrieve from our ceremony and he neglected to follow up.

Every bride thinks that they can manage to plan their wedding on their own, but when you have…read morepeople like the fine folks at Tuscandream, you realize how much more streamlined everything can be with true professionals. I got married in late November of 2015, and Carolina and her partner helped me navigate my wedding that took place in two parts, the comune in Florence (otherwise known as the Palazzo Vecchio) and the reception/second ceremony/etc at Villa Montalto, our venue. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, they were extremely organized which meant that my husband and I were a lot less stressed out. You have NO idea how complicated things can be planning a wedding with 100 guests in a country where neither of you was born. I could not thank them enough because we truly had a beautiful day that was very much part to their help. I also recommend using them for villa rentals in Tuscany, I live here and it can be difficult to find a reputable agent and they are awesome at finding the perfect villa for you (including one that was the legit 'bramasole' in 'Under The Tuscan Sun' in Cortona.

She made sure my wedding went off without a hitch. When I accidentally got red on my dress from my bouquet, she even knew how to erase it just as the ceremony was starting! Early on in the planning process, she created an extremely detailed timeline to make sure everything ran smoothly from getting ready, to cake cutting. Kimery was involved with all of the vendors, and even ordered and picked up my place cards a few days before the wedding. All the while making me feel like I was her only client. On the day of the wedding, Kimery and her assistant had everything in place and ready to go in plenty of time for the ceremony to start. She stayed through the reception to make sure everything ran smoothly, and was a go-between between myself and the vendors. Many of our guests complimented us on the ceremony and reception, and said they had a wonderful time. I definitely recommend Kimery!

Beyond being kind and professional, she was incredibly organized and we benefitted so much from her expertise in developing our timeline, coordinating final details with vendors, and just bringing everything together. My biggest hope when working with a wedding coordinator was that I wouldn't have to be worrying about details and logistics during the day, and Annette and Mandy truly allowed my husband and I to be "guests" at our own wedding. She took care of so much that I hadn't even thought of or explicitly asked/talked to her about, and if there were problems or wrinkles in the plan I never heard about them!

She is the perfect event coordinator; on point, coordinated, proactive and incredibly organized. As well, she anticipated what areas of concern we needed to address before they became issues and her calm demeanor led in the coordination of the bridal party, all the vendors, the venue and the staff. Though I know she probably was managing several other client's needs at the same time since was wedding season, we always felt that we were her first priority...that's a plus! If you are in need of an event planner for wedding or a swanky party in the Southern CA area, reach out to her...you won't regret it!

You want to be in capable hands and just enjoy yourself on your big day, and Orange Blossom was absolutely that for us. I'm prone to overthinking, so I was amazed at how smoothly everything went and how little I thought about logistics on the wedding day, because they were all handled to perfection. We got married at King Gillette Ranch which is basically a completely empty space you have to build out from scratch with your vendors. Janna kept things going with a smile. All the vendors knew what to do and set things up impeccably. During the event, Janna safeguarded us when needed, moved us along when needed, and let us enjoy ourselves without interruption when we could. She and her team thought of so many touches big and small that really made our day, even something like having a drink and apps ready just for us after the ceremony. And the items they set up were done beautifully. Janna even came to help me with a wardrobe malfunction that I couldn't figure out how to fix. It was a real-life fairy godmother moment! All this to say that you can trust this team, and I am so grateful that I did. We went with the Lantana package (coordination), which obviously meant we had to do some of the heavy lifting and research in preparation for the wedding, but it was invaluable to have the guidance of Janna the whole way. I would say it was very worth it for the amount of involvement she had a whole year in advance. She sent us vendor recommendations, a planning calendar, looked at contracts, and we had monthly calls. We kept track of our budget, would call and book vendors, picked rentals and flowers (design), handled stationary, RSVPs, DIYs, and a million other things that go into planning a wedding. I liked being able to make decisions, and stayed on top of things with spreadsheets and lists, but I wouldn't have felt comfortable doing it without an expert like Janna who could keep me on track so nothing important fell through the cracks. It was also incredibly useful to be able to ask her anything throughout the process if I had any questions. And Janna eventually took over vendor communications about 1 month out, which allowed us to focus on final prep all couples go through, and guests trickling into town. It was the perfect amount of involvement for us.

We had already done all the footwork, booked vendors, had the timeline done and sent to vendors, planned, etc.... EVERYTHING was done! We were trying so hard to find a place that understood the situation and that we didn't need an over all planner/coordinator but a day-of coordinator. Lily from Orange Blossom stepped up to the plate and did a phenomenal job!! She understood that we just needed someone there the day of and she never once overstepped or made us feel stressed. She followed our wishes perfectly and made sure our timeline was fulfilled to a T! Lily is extremely professional, patient and kind. She goes above and beyond on the day and made sure nothing went wrong!! We greatly appreciate Lily for taking us on as clients and being so easygoing, organized and kind! I also want to stress that Orange Blossom and Lily were kind enough to give us a discount since we had already done all the footwork! They didn't feel it was morally right to charge us for an overall planner/coordinator. It's rare (especially in the wedding industry) to find people with such great morals, integrity and kindness. But Lily and Orange Blossom are full of that! Thank you so much for all of your help, Lily! We appreciate you so much!! She deserves a raise and all the flowers. She's truly the best!

They handled absolutely everything for me, from helping me find my perfect wedding dress to surprising us with a kick ass Firework show on our very last day in Greece. They made it possible to truly enjoy the entire wedding planning process, so that I would not have to stress at all. Not only were they the easiest people to work with, but they absolutely NAILED everything I threw at them and SO much more! Their attention to detail, creativity, vision, organization and professionalism is definitely what I loved about them the most! They curated an entire weekend for my wedding party to the tee, from our magical rehearsal dinner on the edge of a cliff in Oia, Santorini. To sailing through the Mediterranean on the most epic catamaran, and obviously making our special day a day that we will never forget! The list goes on and on!
