Working with Courtney Haynes from One Sweet Day Weddings & Events was one of the best decisions we…read moremade for our wedding. I would hire her again 1000x. From start to finish, Courtney was an absolute delight to work with. She is incredibly organized, kept every detail and every person on track with ease, and did it all with such warmth, kindness, and positivity. She truly is a bright light. I am definitely not someone who was born to plan parties, so having Courtney to bounce ideas off of and guide us through the planning process took an enormous weight off my shoulders. My mom passed away a few years ago and I was afraid to plan a wedding on my own, but Courtney became more than a planner she became my friend. She made every decision feel manageable and always made us feel confident that everything was under control. On our wedding day, I never once felt stressed or overwhelmed. Every detail was executed flawlessly, and I was able to be completely present for every special moment instead of worrying about logistics. Seeing everything come together so beautifully was beyond anything we could have imagined, and that was all thanks to Courtney's incredible work behind the scenes. I also want to mention our DJ Brian (who we were able to hire alongside Courtney in a contract together). He also deserves all the praises - there was not one moment where the dance floor wasn't filled and he was SUCH a talented DJ. The online program he used to help compile our song requests was so easy to use and he was so engaging the entire time with our guests. Thank you Brian! We are so happy we trusted you as our DJ, all our family and friends raved about you.  Not to be confused with our amazing DJ - I also would love to recommend DJ Catering. Doug and Courtney have worked together for years and their teamwork was flawless. I had so many people tell us after the wedding that it was the best wedding food they have ever had, by far. And being able to rent all the tables etc through them made the process so simple.  Anyone looking for a wedding coordinator who is organized, professional, genuinely kind, and truly invested in making your day perfect, I cannot recommend Courtney and One Sweet Day Weddings & Events highly enough. She gave us the gift of being able to fully enjoy one of the best days of our lives, and for that we will always be grateful.    P.S. Courtney thank you for being the most prepared person ever and sewing my button back on my dress mid wedding we love you! You are the best. Thank you so much for being part of our story.

Coming from the mother of the grooms perspective and being a little old school, I didn't initially grasp the hiring of a Wedding Coordinator, however, it was the best decision that they made...... aside from getting married ;) Courtney allowed me to be involved (bride and groom approved) and she was kind, gracious and meticulously organized and kept me in the loop without missing a beat. Everything from start to finish was better than I could have imagined or hoped for. She is truly a special person as well as incredibly professional.

I can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review however Cari is the absolute greatest!!…read moreAny chance I get to tell someone who is getting married in the area, I recommend Cari! Her attention to every detail for my wedding made me feel so special because she does everything you want, just how you want. She provides a custom package of vendors that you get to choose from that fits your style of wedding and personality. Cari made everything seem so effortless and I couldn't believe how perfect everything turned out. I HIGHLY, EXTREMELY, INSISTENTLY recommend using Cari for your wedding. Her assistant was incredibly helpful and has worked with Cari for a long time so she is very knowledgeable of making the day run smooth too. I wish I could go back to do everything again, absolutely stress free and just the way we wanted it to be. Thank you Cari for such a spectacular job and all your help with our day! Love Kaetlyn and Chris

We chose AOE and Cari from a recommendation from a different planner that was unavailable for our…read moredate. Throughout the planning process, Cari was friendly, responsive and seemed genuinely invested in helping everything go smoothly. We felt confident and supported in the few weeks before the event. However, one of the biggest issues was regarding the deposit. I was sent Zelle information from Cari which is where the deposit was sent. I had informed Cari when the deposit was submitted but the next day received many frantic calls and emails from her stating her email was hacked and it was not where the deposit needed to go. She apologized and reassured this had never happened before, but instead of taking accountability it felt that she was blaming me for her information not being secure. I had informed her I would wait until my bank got back to me about the payment refund to submit the remaining balance, but instead I was sent an email that she would need to cancel our date due to the deposit not being paid in time. After reaching out to her she explained because she had not heard back or received payment, that she would need to cancel. I thought it was odd considering the situation, and thought she would give us some grace with the deposit. Regardless, I unfortunately sent an additional payment that same day to keep our scheduled date. We never got the deposit back. Unfortunately, our experience on the wedding day did not meet the expectations that had been set. Several details that we discussed beforehand were either missed or not executed as planned, which resulted in added stress for us and our families. The ceremony walk through was The largest complication for me was that the vendor list did not have the correct address to the venue. This would have been fine, however Cari also went to a different venue making her set up time later than expected. We arrived 30 minutes later than expected to cocktail hour and I was not made aware of the address issue until we arrived at the parking lot of our venue and my sister and photographer were at the wrong venue. When I called Cari her response to me was "Yeah, I also went to the wrong address. But I did send you guys the vendor list to confirm the address". We had many meetings regarding venue and set up and she was in contact with the venue coordinator as well, so I acknowledge that we should have corrected the address on the email, but we assumed it was correct since we discussed drop-off locations and initial conversations being at the correct address. We also thought if she knew it was the wrong address, we would have loved her to reach out to everyone and explain the mistake immediately so that no one else would also be late. She had also recommended we move our cocktail up sooner for the flow of the ceremony to reception dinner, so we moved from 6-7pm to 5-6pm. We also had an additional person available for table set up with the venue reserved, and when asked Cari confirmed we would not need the additional help so we cancelled this option. On the day of, we arrived 30 minutes later than expected to cocktail hour with her still setting up. According to our guests that arrived on time, nothing was ready when they got there. After 15 minutes since arriving, the table set up was incorrect, the seating chart was laid out flat on a table due to wind, people were sitting inside at their tables already, no music playing, the outdoor lay out was incorrect, and our photographer was at a different location. Another thing to note was that there was no conversation on how the cocktail and other tables were to be set up so I had sent photos for reference just in case the week before. I was a little disappointed that these little details were not confirmed in advance. Afterwards, there were also other minor issues that could have been avoided with better planning as well, but these were the bigger issues. It was unfortunate to hear from my friends and family that they noticed these issues as well, and were checking in on how I was feeling throughout the reception, which is not something you want your guests to notice. We found ourselves addressing issues that we expected would have been managed by Cari taking away from our ability to fully enjoy the day. Her start time was not until the afternoon as well, so the morning was open to confirming and finalizing details if needed. While we appreciate the effort and professionalism shown during the planning stages, the day-of coordination itself fell short of what we anticipated. Ultimately we were disappointed that the execution did not match the level of preparation and confidence established beforehand. We also did not hear from her afterwards until one week later after I reached out to confirm our certificate was submitted (she offered to do). A sincere apology would have been appreciated. I hope this feedback is helpful for future couples and provides an opportunity for improvement for Cari and her team.

We hired Tiffany and her team as partial wedding planners where they became our full planners six…read moremonths before the wedding day. Tiffany was still available and helped us so much with booking vendors before the six months though so it did not feel like we just started being their clients at the 6 month mark. During our monthly phone calls, Tiffany was super detail oriented and made sure everything was being done on time. She provided really valuable insight and vision, helping with design, wedding flow, vendor requests, and infinite other items. Although we had our monthly calls, she was always available to us via text, email, and other calls if needed. She communicated with vendors on our behalf as well and made the whole process so much easier for us. On the wedding day, Tiffany and her team SHOWED UP. I cannot stress enough how much Tiffany and her team seamlessly and professionally ran the day. I did not notice anything go wrong, my husband did not notice anything go wrong, our families did not notice anything go wrong. Her team kept everything running so smoothly and went above and beyond making sure me and husband, as well as our families, felt like royalty the whole day. The fact we could turn our brains off and just enjoy the magic of our wedding was so incredible. I was able to relax and I knew that Tiffany had it covered. She was in our corner and we could really feel that the whole time. I could not recommend Tiffany and her team highly enough. Fair and transparent pricing, attention to detail, communicative and highly responsive, goes above and beyond for her clients. Tiffany and her team exceeded our expectations and made our wedding day truly the best day our of lives.

From the moment we began working together, they were on it -- communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly thoughtful. On the wedding day, we felt completely taken care of. They managed everything from getting us food during cocktail hour to fluffing my dress, holding our glasses and hats, coordinating vendors, and getting everyone to where they needed to be. It genuinely felt like having a partner in planning. I didn't have to worry about a single thing -- every detail, every piece of signage, every vision we had was executed perfectly. They even handled all our personal items from the room and made sure everything was in place. The whole experience felt effortless and seamless. No notes. Worth every single penny.

Where do i even start....casi cielo provided the most perfect beautiful wedding for our daughter!…read moreThe venue was the most perfect setting for a spring wedding. We used the vendors the venue recommended . The food was delicious, the dj was great & staff was super nice! Kalen her day of wedding coordinator was absolutely top notch. She was on top of everything & if there was a problem we never knew about it. She made sure the bride & groom had the most perfect day from beginning to end! The bar ran out of Tito's, she made sure someone from the staff went and got more. Kalen is amazing & knows her job well! She took so much stress off of us! I couldn't have asked for a better wedding coordinator for my daughters wedding. Cant thank casi cielo, the vendors , the staff, & kalen for helping make my daughters dreams come true!

Thank you to Jacklyn for being so amazing throughout the entire process. She provided open communication and every meeting we had with her always left us excited and reassured we were on track. It was a pleasure to have her guiding and coordinating us. Anytime we had a concern or question we were able to contact her and have a response promptly. Also, our assigned day of the wedding coordinator Kalen was amazing! A true professional and with a great personality which matched us and our bridal party. We never had to worry about everything because she was on top of it all between managing guests, vendors, the bridal party and the brides everything went of without a hitch and were so grateful Kalen and Jacklyn made our special day unforgettable. To add, they offer many options for rentals for china, furniture and many vendor options that they work with. As for organizing and preparations we ourselves are quite organized. However, the added checklist and openly provided tips and advices via paper documents and pdf helped us a lot to just make the whole easy as I could simply state. So please take advantage of this resource they provide. My wife and I had our black and white minimalist wedding here last July and it was everything we expected and more. The location itself is tucked away in the Conejo Mountains and perfect for a private event. The views at golden hour is perfect and during our July summer the vineyard provides many photo opportunities. The venue itself is gorgeous with a running fountain with floral succulents, a stone fireplace, and hidden vineyard vibe. The grassed ceremony area with the stone stair case was perfect for our wedding. The reception area with the fireplace gave it a great ambiance, especially at night with the lighting. The portable bathrooms are amazing and don't feel portable at all. The bridal suite was perfect for our bridal party and had AC. Overall our experience with Casi Cielo Vineyards was amazing and wish we could just do it all over again. So if you're not already deciding hurry before your date gets booked by someone else. Wishing Casi Cielo Vineyard further success in providing top tier event experiences for others like they did for us. You definitely won't regret it!

Brooke was a lifesaver for us. We found her around 5 months before our wedding when we'd already…read morebooked most of our vendors, and she jumped in and helped guide us the rest of the way. She cleaned up our vendor orders, found errors we wouldn't have found on our own, helped us fix a couple of things that we didn't know how to do ourselves, and asked all of the questions that we wouldn't even know to ask. She is so responsive and supportive and strikes the perfect balance between leading and supporting the couple's vision. She also knows so many people - whenever we were trying to figure out how to do something or where to get something, Brooke had just the person! She was amazing. I felt so at peace knowing that she was our planner. She is the kind of person who isn't afraid to jump in and do what needs to get done to handle it, even if it means getting reaaally resourceful. She is so creative in that way and also the regular ways! She has great taste and a beautiful eye for design and for floral arrangements. By the time we found her we had already booked our florist, but Brooke helped us make sure we asked for the right floral items, and she did the florals for one of our other wedding events and they were BEAUTIFUL!! On the day of our wedding, Brooke took care of everything. Were there problems at the venue? I have no idea! If there were, she handled them. She was a total machine during the event, handling EVERYTHING and walking us through the day. We were in such good hands, and our guests are still complimenting her and telling us how amazing she was!! Brooke helped make our wedding weekend the most magical weekend of our lives, and she will forever be our wedding angel! I miss texting her! Lol. She's the best - hire her!!!!!

Brooke and her team gave me a day more beautiful than anything I could have ever imagined!…read more Literally, my dreams for my wedding were nothing compared to what she gave me. I had spent hundreds of hours down a REAL deep Pinterest rabbit hole (if you know, you know) and gave it to Brooke for inspiration, then let her run with it. I was so looking forward to being surprised on my wedding day and I expected it to look really pretty based upon how much our planner (Tanya Paye of RSVP Weddings & Events) raved about her work. But still, the stuff I found on Pinterest was super beautiful so I wasn't expecting our florals and decor to rival them. I was expecting a toned down version of the Pinterest board. Yet somehow, Brooke was able to extract the essence of my aesthetic from that board and magically create florals and decor for me that were FAR more beautiful than anything on the Pinterest board. What kind of sorcery is this, Brooke? I simply don't understand how she made something BETTER than the inspiration I provided her. I'm a very simple and low key person, I'm not extra in any way, shape, or form, so I told Brooke a small simple bouquet is fine and then maybe a few hot pink centerpieces and we're good to go. She must have laughed when I said that (and probably even muttered "hold my beer" to whoever was standing next to her) because what she created was far more extravagant and luxurious than anything I had anticipated, yet somehow it was EXACTLY what I wanted, but didn't know I wanted. The simple, modest florals I described to her would have been so sad and depressing. She elevated my aesthetic to something breathtakingly beautiful and our guests are STILL commenting on how beautiful the flowers were. The colors popped beautifully against the white of my dress and the navy of my husband's suit. When I think about how much beauty Brooke created for us, because she truly wanted to give us a special day after we tragically lost both our babies, my eyes well up with tears. She went SO FAR above and beyond to give us the stunning day she felt we deserved after all our suffering. She is not only amazingly talented, but one of the sweetest and kindest people I've ever met. In addition to the stunning and huge bouquet she wanted me to have, she made boutonnieres and corsages for all our wedding party and VIPs and bouquets for the bridesmaids, and she decorated our ceremony and reception locations too! She transformed both these venues into wonderlands of hot pink and gold magnificence. The restaurant looked magical and our ceremony venuewas simply stunning, and provided a gorgeous backdrop for our photos. We will cherish those photos forever, and the joy Brooke has helped to bring us, will sustain us for years. She helped give us one perfect day, an oasis of happiness in our desert of suffering, and we will be forever grateful to her for that.

TLDR: We paid thousands to have our day filled with stress and mismanagement at every turn…read more Specific photos were missed, rings were missing, and ZERO coordination was done. We also hired their florist who was overwhelmed, overpromised and underdelivered and needed extra help. Three Sisters was the most disappointing and frustrating vendor in every sense. Would rate 0 stars if could. Stay away. We were assured on every call, "We just want you to relax and not worry about anything on your big day. We got this." It was surprising to hear at the rehearsal that "We aren't allowed on site until noon." The bride and bridesmaids were arriving at 9am. "The photographer is coming at 11am," we said. "Oh, they're the exception." We asked the event site coordinator who said they could've been there at 9am with us. We hired Three Sisters for the primary purpose of making sure the bride's stepmother did not interfere with any of the activities. This was repeated ad nauseum on every pre-planning call and stressed repeatedly. Within minutes of her arriving (and the groom saying, "That's her.") she had already made it into the bridal suite (where there was no coordinator at any time in the day assisting with all the logistics. When asked the coordinators said, "we are overwhelmed." The rings were not present immediately before the ceremony. The groom noticed last minute. Christina shrugged. She had been told where they were in the morning and forgot. They did not exchange contact information or start a group chat with the venue coordinators when one was asked to call our coordinator and ask where they were. A bridesmaid had to run up on a golf cart to get them. There was never any coordinator around when ANY photos were being taken despite them providing all our photo pairings and shot list as asked. Many photos were missed completely. At post-ceremony photos, family members left the ceremony site. We looked at each other and realized we had coordinators to help. Christina was cleaning between chairs. The groom explained to her to arrange the next group of family members the subsequent set behind them. Like a coordinator should be doing. There was no bouquet for the toss nor a coordinator anywhere to be found. The photographer had to take flowers out of a vase on the table. The flowers were sparse and did not match the pictures of inspiration provided. The bridal bouquet was tiny and had roses despite asking and told that ranunculus was available. The groom asked for sage and was given the eucalyptus he did not want. We said "lush." The sweetheart table to be covered, and you could see our legs and if we dropped food or silverware. The five beams cost $1800 to have a single strand of thin ivy wrapped around them. It looked like a string of Xmas lights. Heather helped her florist sister all day rather than focus on events. At one point they drove by on a golf cart and asked the groom, "Have they found the missing bouquet?" That is something he needs to worry about? During the middle of our dinner walked to our table to ask, "Are you mad at me?" Heather sent some staff off to eat off site bc "I forget who on my team has food allergies" despite us asking specifically being told none. Staff left on our dime. Uber Eats also would've been a better option. They asked the father of the bride for his speech (so he could "relax") and then lost it so we had to track it down. When the bridal processional started, the quartet played for 30 seconds before the gates were opened. Christina kept asking the bride if she was ready and she replied "Yes" three times while Christina just stared back but did not open the gates until the father of the bride had to sternly tell her to. This was the most awful and stressful experience and at no point in the day was anything coordinated. It was just made more complicated. We could've handled all the above had we known it was our responsibility. Instead, we TRUSTED them to take care of everything, and they blew it. It should be noted in response to the above they replied in email that not all of it was their fault. They would send us a follow-up email explaining what was not. That has still not been received but should be no surprise.

Writing this review the day after our wedding, on our way to our honeymoon, because I was SO…read moreimpressed by the way Three Sisters planned and ran our wedding day! They are truly a one-stop shop for any wedding needs, which is perfect for a busy bride. From the beginning, they were so helpful - Heather was so responsive in answering any and all of my questions (no matter how small), and later on helped make all our signage, coordinated rentals, and truly designed our entire wedding based on my Pinterest board. I'm unfortunately very indecisive and had trouble deciding what I wanted at times, but she has so much expertise in this area that she somehow read my mind and designed a wedding more beautiful than I could ever imagine! Then on the day of, our lead coordinators Christina and Kendra took the reins and handled any issues that came up expertly. We had three separate ceremonies to honor our cultures and somehow even this was stress-free. We used their in-house florist, who was so easy to communicate with and made really beautiful flower arrangements. I felt like I was really able to enjoy my wedding, hang out with my guests, and soak it all in because I felt confident that they were handling everything behind the scenes. I do not know what I would have done without them! I cannot recommend the Three Sisters team enough!!

Tristan as my banquet captain was a highlight, especially when she made me and my assistant plates of food to take home with us for the evening to make sure we ate. That was a nice touch and her idea. She also checked in at random times throughout the evening when I didn't even realize I needed her - much appreciated! The bartenders were great! They were friendly and made everything to order. My primary planner was Angelica who is an absolute delight! What a gem! She had a great upbeat personality and was incredibly professional throughout the process, as were ALL of the planners on the sales team - truly! I got to meet a couple more of them at our event and they were all wonderful! People from our party are already talking about having our holiday party here again next year, and I certainly wouldn't object since it was made so easy - and the late night suggestion of a tator tot bar didn't hurt. LOL Thank you to the entire team - everyone did a bang up job and should proud of themselves for a job well done!
