Wow - cannot say enough about Rebecca and her team at Danzante Events! We planned our wedding on a tight timeline, and Rebecca was able to seamlessly navigate the entire process, we did not make it easy :) The weeks leading up she ensured we were on-track with key milestones, the week of she provided key support throughout our wedding festivities and the day-of her and her team made sure everything was flawless! Her expertise of the industry and area vendors allowed us to find vendors that suited our wedding dreams and were incredible in making our day come to life. read more

Rebecca and her team were AMAZING. They are extremely experienced, organized, thoughtful and kind. Absolute consummate professionals every step of the way: - Rebecca knew many of the vendors in the Bay Area, everyone from catering, to hair & makeup, etc., and she had worked with them before and knew what to expect. - She had a great vision for my wedding that I didn't even have for myself, thinking about all the details, from signage, to silverware, making sure it all looked cohesive and beautiful. - She made our wedding day stress-free, picking up the slack for guests, logistics and I'm sure 100 little road-bumps and making sure my husband and I could focus on ourselves. I could go on and on in all the ways they were fantastic, but bottom line, Rebecca and her team went above-and-beyond in so many ways. We could not have had the beautiful wedding and memories we did without her. I would hire her before you hire anyone else on your wedding planning journey. Please do yourself this favor and go with Rebecca. I cannot speak enough praises. read more

Rebecca is an absolute dream to work with! She made every step of the process super easy and straight forward. I would recommend Danzante Events to any one for their party planning needs. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and could not have gone any smoother. read more

Rebecca was amazing to work with and truly goes above and beyond for her clients!! She worked with our budget and helped make our wedding day go perfectly. On the day of, Mandy, Jennifer, and Annette were on site. They were all attentive yet also blended into the wedding and ensured I did not have to worry about logistics on the day of. Rebecca was able to accompany us on venue visits and was especially helpful in working with a very difficult vendor who was non-responsive to my messages. Rebecca truly cares about all of her clients and I would 100% recommend her to anyone planning a wedding. read more

I worked with Rebecca and her husband while doing a photoshoot. She planned everything perfectly and the resulting photos of my product totally boosted my business! I'm forever grateful and can't wait to use her event planning services. She's also eco-conscious and has the best tips for reducing and repurposing for low carbon footprint. Her and her assistants are the total package and worth every penny spent (or saved!) read more

Rebecca made sure our wedding day went perfectly. We postponed our wedding once due to COVID and had some stressful moments, but Rebecca was always there to offer support and another option. A special thank you to Mandy, who ensured our day went smoothly and decorated the reception room beautifully. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Rebecca is not just amazing, she is an actual Goddess. My younger sister got married on St. Patricks' day and the event could not have gone smoother. The competent staff at Danzante Events brought Dublin to Santa Cruz. I have no idea how they were able to find this local band who specialized in Irish Folk Music but they were terrific. Corned beef was served and they made sure it did not run out. The potatoes were made by a local caterer who knew better than to bungle that critical side dish. Even the cabbage was done to perfection. Professional attitude, helpful staff, and a great time was had by all. Thank you so much for even remembering to bring several dart boards so me and the other fellas could have a go at the dart boards. One last shout out for going to the trouble to actually bring keggers of REAL IRISH beer. Well played. A perfect day for a perfect sister. read more

Rebecca and her team were a pleasure to work with in planning our wedding! She was professional and responsive, and had tons of great tips for the big day. She went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was spectacular. We don't know what we would've done without her! read more

If you need wedding coordination for your big day, look no further! The expertise and experience of not only Rebecca but her full team were greatly appreciated as we got through the planning and selecting vendors. They listened to our needs and wants and kindly directed us on making decisions that made the day perfect. A giant shout out to Jennifer who kept me (the bride) sane during the wedding day and oversaw the set up which was beautiful and went beyond expectations. Extremely recommend them if you want well-organized, experienced, and kind wedding planners/coordinators. read more

My wife and I met Rebecca at a wedding expo and liked her right away. We hired her as a day-of coordinator, but she did so much more than that - we met with her 2 or 3 times in the months leading up to the wedding, kept in regular contact via email, and she ended up spending most of the day before our wedding helping us set up and coordinating with the rental company. Rebecca is really trustworthy, responds super quickly to email, and did a great job setting up our reception/dinner area and making it look even more beautiful than we could have imagined! Wedding planning is stressful and of course a few things went wrong that day (the caterer forgot to bring coffee - yikes!) but Rebecca helped us stay calm and happy through all the wonderful parts and the unexpected parts :) We highly recommend her to help pull off any event you're planning! read more

We had a great experience working with Rebecca and her team. She was more than willing to go above and beyond for us and for our special day. She was quick to reply to emails and willing to answer all of our questions, big and small. Her decoration and table arrangement suggestions turned out perfect! She did a great job making sure the wedding went smoothly. Highly recommend. read more

Rebecca and her team were an absolute joy to work with! We ended up moving across the country during our engagement and had to plan the wedding from thousands of miles away. Rebecca was always available via email and made frequent check in calls to keep things on track. She provided guidance with vendors and was able to troubleshoot potential issues with skill and expertise. In addition, she was vital to the aesthetic design of the wedding and was able to bring our vision to life. We had a two day event and Rebecca was able to organize both events like the pro she is. Everything went perfectly (and if it didn't, we were never aware)! read more

Got engaged a year ago, and still have not thought, or have a clue how to begin planning for our wedding. However, after meeting with Rebecca i felt so much better about everything and just knew she was going to be such a stress reliever for me, and she has been!! Rebecca and her team have been amazing at everything! Very well organized and they have so much information for the different types of venues there is out there, and are willing to go that extra mile just to make you happy for your big day! And if your anything like me, indecisive, just know that their taste in style and food is fabulous! So I know I don't have to worry about weather the venue or food will be a hit or not, because everything they recommend sounded amazing! I also noticed Rebecca and her team like to shop and support local businesses, which I believe is super important today, and makes me happy knowing we are able to help locals while planning for the wedding. Lastly, as is if wedding planning wasn't hard enough, Rebecca mentioned she had started a coffee catering service, which just sounds like an awesome thing to have at a wedding for the coffee addicts in my family! I am just so happy that I came across Danzante Events, and so pleased with all the help they have been giving me and my fiancé through this entire time. I definitely went into thinking that planning for my wedding was going to be stressful, but luckily it has been a fun experience so far! read more

Becca was fantastic to work with. She went above and beyond to make our day stress free, and took care of all of the little details so we didn't have to. She understood our vision for the event, and pulled it off without a hitch. When the day finally arrived, I was confident she had it all under control and only had to worry about my own role. She took care of everything else, and I can't even begin to describe how much better it was for having her there. read more

You can't say enough good things about Rebecca and Danzante Events. She gave 110% to make our wedding perfect. She was available around the clock, kept us on schedule, and found us the best service providers (florist, violin/cello duo, seat rental service, etc.) all within budget. We also threw her plenty of wild cards and she handled them like a pro and made it work. She also has so many great ideas on how to embellish the ceremony. She even hand made decorations. So many people came up to us after the ceremony and said it was the most beautiful wedding they have been to. It was perfect to us. Also, my husband is incredibly meticulous. He researched somewhere around 10 or 12 wedding coordinators. We had calls with four of them, we met personally with two of them and our gut said Rebecca, so we went with her. We go with our guts much more often now :) read more

Rebecca and her team were absolutely perfect. We hired Danzante Events to be our day of coordinator for our wedding in Ben Lomond, and Rebecca went above and beyond from the beginning to ensure our wedding was everything we envisioned it would be and that we were relaxed and able to enjoy it all. Rebecca does not mess around when it comes to getting things done. She is organized and knows the majority of vendors in the Santa Cruz and beyond area, so if you have a question about a vendor or wonder how you can create a vision you have for your wedding day, Rebecca will be able to provide great insight as to the best options. All the vendors who we worked with and previously knew Rebecca raved about her and her team, which I think really helped ensure everything went smoothly leading up to and on our wedding day. I found out from some family after our wedding there were a few minor flukes that no one would be able to predict would happen, but Rebecca and her team not only made sure they were taken care of immediately but also that we had no idea they even happened, so we could just focus on enjoying our day. I cannot stress how amazing this was to have someone on your team that will not only get things done how you want but can also put out any fires (not literally hopefully) that may come up. Definitely give Rebecca a call or email and find out for yourself how amazing her and her team are. They have a passion for this and will make sure you have an amazing event. read more

Starting to plan a wedding, not quit there, just in beginning stages, but happen to bump into rebecca's. What a coincidence, a wedding planner. She was very nice, very friendly, and had some amazing ideas. I was really impressed that she took the time out to give me some great ideas. When the time is right, I will definitely be using her. Thank you read more

By this point I have been to multiple events and weddings that friends have hired Danzante Events for. When it comes to weddings -- each one of them has been tailored to let the couples' personality shine thtough. When it comes to making a couples' dream wedding go from concept to real life -- Rebecca is super creative and wholeheartedly committed. No detail is forgotten, and she does it all gently guiding the couple along, making what can seem like an endlessly overwhelming and complicated process smooth and easy. She is also prepared for a multitude of small "emergencies" that can feel like so much more on the big day, and keeps everything running smoothly, and is always a source of optimistic calm. She's like the meme about the duck -- furiously paddling below, calmly floating above. Danzante is welcoming to *all* couples, doesn't subscribe to the toxic trends of being thin for weddings, and while Rebecca has vendors she prefers, she doesn't set up kickbacks for forcing you to go through a specific vendor. One of Rebecca's deepest joys is creating beautifully crafted events for people to have fun at. If there's a reason to celebrate, she'll make it a party to remember. read more

I'm pleased to announce, that thanks to Rebecca and her crew @ Danzante Events, my wife and I got married without a Single Problem: before, during, or after the ceremony. I'm convinced that Rebecca never sleeps; she's available every hour of existence for the freak-out moments, has a Plan A, B, C, all the way through Z. Preferences were tailed to, last minute requests were well-handled, second guessing was clarified and direction was reinforced. If there was a spot for six stars, she'd get it! With Rebecca in charge, every wheel in the Wedding Machine turned without a single hiccup. Or, if there were hiccups...we never ever knew. That's how it's done! With Rebecca in charge of your wedding event, you get to focus on the meaning of your marriage, and whom you're marrying; Leave the mechanics to Rebecca! read more

Worked an event alongside Rebecca and her team at Danzante at a gorgeous estate in Gilroy. They were very thorough and attentive through out the party. Decorations and coordination of food and beverage/ rentals was on point. My company provided the bar services and it was a very smooth process working with them. Would recommend for individuals looking for help to throw a great party. read more

Danzante Events is a one of a kind wedding and event planning company. I've worked with Rebecca, the Owner, Designer, and Lead Planner, a couple times now, and some of the many things that set her apart from other planners in the industry is her charisma, love for and dedication to her clients, and passion for the industry, What more could you ask for? When someone is passionate about what they do, it shows in their work product. Moreover, she is so wonderful to work with, a great listener, and knows how to bring visions to life with her profound leadership skills and mastery of planning and organizing weddings and events. If you are looking for a planner, I guarantee you will be more than satisfied, and your special day will be all that you dreamed of. Book her, and don't miss out. read more

Rebecca is AMAZING! We booked Rebecca as a Day of Coordinator but she was so much more than that for the months before the wedding and especially during the month of. We wanted to do a most of the planning ourself so there were many DIY components to our day. Our venue also had us bring in all our vendors and wasn't the easiest to get to in the Santa Cruz mountains. To top that off, it was during a "rare spring storm" (aka thunderstorms all weekend) for what we planned initially as an entirely outdoor wedding. Needless to say, the week before was incredibly stressful. Rebecca helped us so much with finding tents, implementing a rain plan, working with the venue to make the plan work, and helping me through my freak outs. Rebecca and her team worked to miraculously bring the day together including putting together all our DIY elements, setting up a ceremony space that was very intimate and personalized, a receptions space in a tent that allowed our guests to befriend one another with ease, and awesome dance party after. Because of the weather, all that I had originally envisioned had to change but Rebecca and her team helped pull it all together. It ended up being an incredibly beautiful and magical day. Our guests had such a wonderful time and we had so much fun! I can't thank Rebecca enough for the work she put in to really make our day something to remember. read more

Choosing Rebecca as our wedding planner was the second best decision we could have made after deciding to get married! We began working with her about a year before our wedding and she quickly became a friend, trusted partner, and sometimes counselor. She kept us on task and made selecting vendors and details such a breeze. We felt supported the whole way through. On our wedding weekend, Rebecca and her team were there directing the whole thing so that we could focus on what was important and be with our families. As the bride I was away getting ready all morning and when it was time for the ceremony and reception it felt like the greatest gift ever to look around and see our dream come true. Without Rebecca, we never would have dreamed as big, been able to afford the wedding of our dreams, or been able to make it all a reality. Rebecca also helped us book and plan our honeymoon in Japan which was the best vacation of our lives and we couldn't have done it without her! We are dreaming of the next opportunity to get to work with Danzante Events because we miss having our regular chats! If I was rich I would offer up a money-back guarantee for anyone that is on the fence about choosing Danzante Events because I promise you, you will not regret it! read more

Our coordinator Rebecca Z. helped our wedding run so smoothly, we were actually relaxed leading up to the wedding. I honestly did not think that was possible, but thanks to Rebecca we felt completely taken care of. I cannot imagine what it would have been like without her. On the wedding day, she and her fabulous assistant kept us calm and cool, rounding up family for pictures and making sure we were all drinking enough water and getting enough to eat, instantly handling problems as they arose, just basically being our heroes for the day! Just a few standout moments - Before the wedding: Rebecca helped us keep track of all our vendors and the contracts and helped us calculate tips for everyone ahead of time and made up a schedule with absolutely everything on it including every delivery window. She made a site map of the venue and shared it with the vendors so setup went smoothly. She helped us focus on the important decisions, and had excellent suggestions for all of them, most of which we used. She was just completely on top of everything. Day of: Rebecca and her assistant helped set up the entire ceremony area. They laid out all our DIY welcome items beautifully and made it look better than we imagined. We arrived and things were just being handled, no need to worry about anything. Things went wonky and were taken care of so quickly I didn't even hear about it until after the event! Our caterer was not comfortable serving outside food or drink, which was a pity because we were hoping to share our favorite brownies (from Meteora Bakery) and some iced tea. We were willing to let it go, but Rebecca and her assistant said they would take care of it for us, and they set it up beautifully. I don't even know when they had time to do it! When the wedding was over, we had nothing to worry about either. I was completely exhausted, but Rebecca had worked with us to prepare a list of exactly who would be taking what home with them, and made sure everything followed the plan, so that when it was time to leave the cars were packed and we could just head out. We left knowing that the vendors all knew exactly what they needed to do to clean up and leave the venue in good condition. No checking to make sure every table and chair was put away, or the compost was taken from the kitchen, or the gifts were secure, or the floors were clear. Just out the door (and then collapsing a bit later). We love Danzante Events! Thank you for everything! read more

I can't say enough good things about Danzante Events. We worked with Rebecca who was organized, responsive, responsible, knowledgeable, and understanding. Originally, we had thought day of and rehearsal coordination would be enough, but then we decided we needed a little bit more help and we were so glad we decided to go with a little more coordination. Rebecca took the time to listen to what we wanted. She made appropriate recommendations and she was understanding even when we didn't necessarily go with her recommendation (this sort of flexibility is more valuable than one might realize). Rebecca had contingency plans in mind for things we would never have thought of and she went the extra mile making sure everything looked perfect and working with other vendors to make things run smoothly. With her help, our wedding was beautiful and went off without a hitch! We can't thank her and everyone at Danzante enough! We highly recommend including Danzante Events in your wedding planning! read more

Rebecca went above and beyond to help my wife and I with planning for our wedding. She kept us on track with contracts and vendors, and even helped my wife make a last minute change in makeup artist. Her attentiveness was key in having our wedding day go smoothly and she was ready to respond to our every need, from setting out our favors at each place setting to taking charge of the cake cutting. She was so good that guests came up to us to tell us they were impressed! read more

I loved working with Rebecca! She is incredibly organized, provides clear directions and is very knowledgeable. If you are looking for a wedding planner that is resourceful, kind, thoughtful, and ON IT- Rebecca is your gal! Definitely recommend- 100% read more

Rebecca was so helpful from the start! She was available at all times and got back to me immediately. Rebecca always went out of her way to make sure i was stress free and making sure things came out how I pictured. The day of wedding Rebecca worked really hard to make sure everything ran smoothly and didn't have to worry about anything! I would definitely hire Rebecca and her team for my next event : ) read more

absolutely professional throughout the entire event. My guests, participants, and ourselves were treated lovingly. Every part of the party was filled with energy and excitement.
