Planning a wedding from out of town in Paso Robles could've been overwhelming, but she made the entire process feel manageable. She was always quick to respond to our texts, happy to jump on calls, and incredibly patient with our questions. Her strong relationships with local vendors were so helpful and she handled little things that could've easily sent us over the edge. The biggest testament to Amanda's professionalism and calm-under-pressure attitude came during our actual wedding weekend. PG&E had to shut off the power at our venue the day before and the day of our wedding due to the strong winds and fire safety protocols. It could've been a total disaster but Amanda stepped in and worked hand in hand with our band and the venue coordinator to problem-solve on the fly. She kept everything moving and made sure our day still felt special, despite the chaos behind the scenes. If you're planning a wedding in Paso, we can't recommend Amanda enough. She's organized, thoughtful, resourceful, and genuinely invested in making your day as perfect as possible.

She frequently met with us throughout the year and a half leading up to the wedding, answering our many questions and calming our worries.

In the month leading up to the wedding, she would respond to texts almost immediately and was there to help organize all the last minute things that came up. On the day of, she was anticipating every need we would have before we even realized it.

Kristiana was the BEST DECISION we made for our wedding! If we could rate her 10 out of 5 stars, we…read morewould! Not only was she our Day of Coordinator, she was the captain that kept the ENTIRE wedding ship afloat during an EMERGENCY POWER OUTAGE caused by a FIRE! She knew exactly how to ensure everyone's safety and comfort in a pitch black venue. From our first call, Kristiana's compassion and organization were evident. I knew when she talked about having a bathroom and emergency kit, having a toy prepared for any upset child, and having a full blown software to help design the wedding layouts - that she was the best. Her excitement and encouragement made planning stress-free, and she consistently reassured me that we would find solutions to any challenges AND bring any vision to life. On the wedding day, Kristiana excelled and was the best person to have by my side. She managed the vendors, kept the timeline on track, and was always there when I needed her. Whether it was safety pinning the entire inner layer of my wedding gown to prevent tripping, finishing petal toss cups last minute because the caterers forgot to do it, or comforting me before the ceremony because everyone else was too excited, she was a hero. AND THEN THERE WAS THE POWER OUTAGE! A nearby fire shut down all the power in the entire area - and the venue was completely dark. I was so afraid the wedding was over an hour early after all the money and time invested into the big day. Kristiana made sure everyone was safe, communicated effectively, and kept things moving. She even moved my card box to a safe location just because there were no more lights. She truly thought of every detail. Not only that, a week and a half after the wedding, she has been proactively seeking a partial refund from my venue for me because they did not have any back up lighting for an emergency situation that put all of the guests (especially elderly) at risk. And when I found out catering did not bring GF food for my GF guests, she took it upon herself to call them to get compensation for such a costly mistake. THINGS THAT SHE DID NOT HAVE TO DO AT ALL! All this to say, Kristiana is truly an ANGEL! She is the most caring and compassionate soul and without her, I truly don't know what would have happened during the wedding. The wedding was a fairytale and I truly believe the majority of that credit goes to her. Her proactive and caring nature left a lasting impression on everyone. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Kristiana for EVERYTHING!

I was struggling with how to plan something special for a group of 6 without busting the bank and still getting a great experience. I heard about Kathy & Jim's "The Bus Stop Pismo Beach" tour through a niece. I will tell you this was perfect! First, Kathy & Jim are two of the sincerest people you will meet. They both are members at wineries throughout the Edna Valley, so they know their stuff and they love (almost passionate about... ) wines from this valley. One of the sisters is a a wine lover and shared that every winery that Kathy took them too was some of the best ones to visit. Every stop we had a reserved area so Kathy put in the time and catered the tour to us. But it didn't stop there! They included an afternoon snack time at one of the wineries and they shared local products from the valley too. Again, they are passionate about their valley and it extends beyond the wine. The best part of for me was the ride. It is a working, vintage VW Bus!!! This experience took the sister-in-laws back to their glory days; lol... Kathy was the perfect host. She related to the girls and still hosted a professional and memorable guided tour. If you are looking for a fun, memorable experience...do not pass up this one!!!
