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!!

Her experience, professionalism, and creative impulses spelled success for our Whimsical Springtime Wedding Showcase! Several members of our leadership team at Live Oak UU Congregation attended the event and came away inspired by the memorable event she planned, staged, and implemented. The colors and activities she imagined and presented - including a sound bath, bouquet making, painting, plus a wide array of classy wedding industry professionals - made for an elegant, festive evening event at Live Oak UU Congregation. I hope we get to work together again on an event.

We worked with Madeline for partial planning of our wedding and she went above and beyond our…read moreexpectations to help make our dream wedding a reality! Madeline was dedicated, detailed and confident. She offered great solutions to our problems, helped keep us on track and met with us regularly to make sure that we were all set. Madeline's use of Aisle Planner truly kept us organized. When we had issues (as every wedding does) with vendors or availability or venue restraints, Madeline was supportive and offered great alternatives. Madeline truly has her finger on the pulse of event planning, she recommended two vendors to us (rentals and makeup) and they were honestly just the absolute best referrals, we ended up engaging both of them and were so happy she introduced us to them. When the time came, Madeline and Thomas were on site for multiple days helping us get set up and organized. When our day called for thunderstorms during the ceremony, Madeline helped brainstorm contingency plans. She even made us a champagne tower when the venue refused to stack the glasses. All in all, Madeline is a fantastic asset to any couple planning a wedding. She is supportive in all the right ways and offers thoughtful and helpful guidance while allowing the couple to lead the way. Madeline was a key component in making the wedding of our dreams and we could not have done it without her! We'd absolutely recommend her to anyone and hope to find a way to engage her in the future. We consider her more than just a planner, throughout our time working together she became a friend!

I strongly recommend giving Sincerely Jessie Events a try. I met with Jessie twice and was VERY…read moreimpressed by her warmth and professionalism. She is a kind, calm, consistent, creative person. A steady rock in the storm type, someone who makes complex problems simple and not the reverse. She has a beautiful aesthetic, and shockingly her rates are literally the best out there because she recently launched solo after years in events. I opted to go with a family friend with 25 years in the industry and a warehouse, who was a lot more, but knows half of my guest list - however, it was a difficult decision and I have no doubt I will work with Jessie in the future. I met or spoke with about 8 planners and Jessie was the most gracious, thoughtful and consistent, not to mention those wonderful rates and her sweet, calm way. I will miss her at my wedding, but I am sure to hire her for other events. I feel very comfortable giving her a very strong recommendation.

Brittany with Studio 11 Eleven helped me during the most difficult time of my life, planning my…read morehusband's Celebration of Life ceremony. From the very beginning, she brought calm, clarity, and compassion to something that felt impossible to face. I had a vision in my heart for how I wanted the ceremony to feel and look but I didn't know how to bring it all together. Brittany not only made it happen, she brought it to life even more beautifully than I could have imagined. But what truly set her apart was the way she cared for me. I felt like she was holding my hand through every step, not just as an event planner, but as a deeply kind and empathetic person. She understood what I was going through, and she showed up with such grace and support that it carried me through. One moment I will never forget: right before the ceremony began, I was standing in the back behind all the seats filled with emotion, everyone waiting on me. Brittany looked me in the eye and gently said, "You got this." And somehow, in that instant, I found the strength to walk forward to the front row and sit down to begin the service -- to say goodbye to my husband. Later, during the reception, I wasn't eating or drinking anything. She came over and softly asked, "Red or white?" She brought me a glass of wine with such care, and I realized she had also asked the waiters to keep circling back to me with food. She noticed I was fading and made sure I was looked after. She didn't have to -- but she did. That's who she is. I could go on and on about how beautiful the ceremony was--and it truly was--or about how Brittany's talent as a graphic designer leveled up the event signage and the keepsake , or how she skillfully negotiated the best deals with every vendor. But what Brittany gave me was something far more profound: strength, kindness, a steady presence, and genuine human empathy. That's rare. And I feel deeply grateful to have met her and even more grateful to have been guided by her through such a tender and difficult time. Thank you Brittany.

Everything you need to throw a safe and fun party is delivered right to your door. The box was completely custom with amazing personal touches and so much attention to detail. His cake topper was so cute and makes a great keepsake for memories. It was easy to set up and the convenience of having everything right at your doorstep cannot be beat. Balloons, cake, candle, decorations, party favors, plates, cups etc! Being a full time mom I appreciated having everything taken care of so I could just focus on the day and enjoy his party. Would absolutely recommend this service to anyone looking to celebrate a birthday.

I have hosted many events at clubs and venues-and a tasting is always included-in fact they WANT you to do tastings so you chose exactly what you want for your event. However-when they are the only option at a venue, Command Performance will not offer you that trial/complimentary tasting-in fact they charge $300 for the couple and $150 per person added to that. BUT-if they are one of several caterers offered at a venue-THEN they will offer free tastings to those couples. We know this, as our friends son was married at the Gerry, and Command Performance gave them a lovely complimentary tasting. And because we did not want to risk upsetting the caterer before my daughter's wedding, I did not voice how outraged I was/am by this, and waited until after the wedding. When we have another event, Command Performance will not be a vendor we will consider.

The team was incredibly helpful, the food was truly impeccable, and the staff were so kind and attentive throughout the entire event. We received endless compliments from our guests, the catering was genuinely one of the highlights of the night. KB, the catering manager, was on another level! She took such amazing care of us as a couple, constantly checking in, bringing us food, and making sure we had everything we needed at all times. We never once had to look for her, she was always right there, anticipating everything before we even had to ask. She was like a hawk in the best possible way, completely on top of every detail while still being warm and calm. Because of her, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our wedding! A true gem! They went above and beyond, and it showed in every detail. We are so grateful and will be talking about them for a long time!

We went to a school family camp weekend at El Capitan Canyon this month and got a bountiful…read moreHawaiian luau-themed dinner through DJ's California Catering. My friend Kelly M. did the hard work of booking, but I was part of the host crew and thought this dinner was quite successful. We ordered a buffet for 30 adults and 35 children, which ended up feeding 41 adults and 39 children, with leftovers to spare. The total cost, including tip, was a little over $2,900. Not cheap or anything, but definitely worth it for the food and service. DJ's came and set everything up, and there was a guy on site to handle everything for a period of like five hours. I didn't get his name, but he was nice, even helping me open a can I needed desperately to open, without the use of a can opener. The service came with sugarcane plates, forks, knives, and paper napkins, and a luau-themed table covering to put under the buffet. All things we didn't have to think about. We grilled the other night of camp and this was more cost effective, but proportionately more laborious. The food was good and covered a lot of bases, so everyone had something to eat. There were dinner rolls with one thousand pats of butter, many of which I now have in my fridge, and a giant catering tray of three cheese macaroni and cheese. My children were covered with these two offerings, as were, I suspect, many others. We got two meat entrées, which were both very satisfying: traditional Hawaiian kalua pork and grilled teriyaki chicken breast with grilled Maui pineapple. An island garden salad made for a nice side, with mandarin oranges, toasted almonds, crispy wonton strips, and ginger soy vinaigrette. Kind of like Chinese chicken salad without the chicken, and therefore well matched to the chicken teriyaki. There was steamed jasmine rice too, and a tropical fruit salad. Everyone had a great time at the family luau, even if most of the kids were too excited to sit down and eat proper dinner. DJ's California Catering took care of everything (well, except childcare) so we parents could just sit back and enjoy.
