We had multiple goals during the planning process - to make sure the wedding at our expansive venue still felt like us, to make sure our guests had a good time, and to have everything planned to the point where we'd just show up and be present. During the planning process: They worked around our schedules. We would sometimes have to meet after work hours but in between, we would respond via text or email for any quick decisions. They were very receptive to feedback and guided us through decisions that aligned with our budget and design goals. They also attempted to curate and present choices that reflected our personalities - they made consistent efforts to get to know us each step of the way, which helped make our wedding truly feel like ours. They crafted presentations (even these were beautiful!) with options for each vendor, including the costs and their portfolio so that we would be able to make informed decisions They helped us handle all communication and negotiations of pricing with our vendors In the end, we definitely had an A+ team to have the wedding beyond our dreams. I am in awe and filled with immense appreciation and gratitude for what they do. The week of our wedding, my coworkers were surprised that I was so calm. It was an odd feeling as there were no worries to be had and we were just able to focus on making sure our families were getting into town okay. On the day of the wedding, Jenn made sure our tea ceremony was set up and ready to go while Morgan handled set up at the venue. They made sure we were fed and hydrated throughout the day. There were some family issues/hiccups that they took care of for us so gracefully that no one noticed anything was amiss. We were able to mingle and take pictures with our guests without worrying about anything else. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the wedding. Our vendors have even commented on how thorough and thoughtful they were in helping with managing timelines. Our wedding was a week ago and we are still receiving compliments with requests for all our vendors. Overall, if we were to go back in time, we would choose to work with JRE a million times over.

I've been putting off writing this review for over 4 months because I truly don't know how to…read moreexpress in words how thankful we were to have Jenn coordinate our wedding. There were many reasons I chose Jenn from the get-go: prior to even booking her, she was already going above and beyond to get in touch with our venue and other vendors I was interested in. Our venue initially told us we could only use a planner, caterer, and DJ from their approved list...but Jenn's experience in the industry and being the "voice" for her brides allowed us to book her as well as other vendors that were not originally on the "approved" list. Being detail-oriented myself, I knew I had picked the right planner when all of my other vendors told me "she is the queen of details" when they found out who our coordinator was! I'm so grateful we had Jenn by our sides throughout the planning process, as she was able to take my ideas and give her recommendations to make things even better (I went from thinking I wanted only white and green florals to having colorful bouquets and arrangements and I'm so glad Jenn helped to change my mind on that one)! She will coordinate with all of your vendors to create timelines, menus, floor plans, and will even make last minute adjustments to ensure everything is perfect. I promise that you will not have to worry about a thing on your wedding day thanks to Jenn and her team! Needless to say, Jenn's work as an event planner and coordinator is exceptional and she is exactly the "queen of details" you want making sure everything is impeccable for your wedding day!

They partnered with us throughout every step of our planning journey and offered expert guidance and flawless execution. In addition to providing event coordination services, Julie and Nichole created our floral / decor arrangements and desserts! They created the most incredible deliverables based on a combination of inspiration photos, budget requirements, and in-person consultations. The SSE Team was able to maintain consistent communication while balancing long distance scheduling constraints as my Husband and I live and work in San Francisco while the event was in the Amador Foothills.

Almost 6 years later and I'm still amazed by their work!

I'm sorry but as much as I've tried to get past this it will always haunt me…read more Sandy was hired by my mother for my wedding August 2, 2025. I wish I could give a better rating but I just can't, had she not taken a back seat approach I would have. I'm sure Sandy will leave something to contradict everything I have written but honestly I just wish she would have been way more professional and not let her feelings affect my big day. I am usually a high rater when I do reviews and most of my other reviews reflect that. I've written many over the years so if I'm writing a review, there's a reason. I'm not going to sit here and draw out a big list so message me if you'd like the 411. The ceremony was pretty good other than the guests being out in the hot sun for 20 minutes , I'll give her that. As for the reception , i didn't know is the videographer didn't have the video montage that all our parents were working with him on and Sandy didn't want my mom to fix it. Sandy was in a bad mood due to this and was pouting and my husband, my mother and I paid the price. She is still upset about things, understandably so. The reception started out good until sunset/golden hour photos. I was given zero instruction for this, there was no communication whatsoever and there should have been. When it was running longer for whatever reason my mom wanted to wrap up the photos yet Sandy said no. Sandy repeatedly didn't listen to my mother even though she paid her and even tipped her at the end. I will admit initially our response was everything was fine but after we sat with it, it just wasn't. Bottom line- time taking photo after photo could have been cut short and I could have gotten to mingle with my guests. Some of them flew from far away to make it to our wedding. I'll never get that back and that saddens me most. I've been told by guests that while they had a decent time, they wish they got to spend time with us. Most did not get any time with us. Edited to add: communication, and delivery should have been better, all of it was severely lacking. Both my husband and I have tried to contact Sandy about our concerns. Not once did she really listen. I wish she would have been professional but she just was not. This is the honest truth of how things turned out. She also trashed my mother and my maid of honor online and would not take down her post until my mom told her that my friend has a disability Why am I writing this now? I'd written something like this a while back ago but decided to take it down, but now I think that some time has passed I can write a version that reads better. So my advice: proceed with caution. There a reason she only has 12 reviews.

Going into the process, we had no idea what we didn't know. Things like vendors, day of logistics, even how our wedding parties would organize themselves on our wedding day was a mystery to us and having Sandy in our corner helped us in a million ways. Her connections in the wedding industry helped us narrow down and select vendors with ease. She secured us a last minute photo booth which ended being a huge highlight of our night. It even rained on our wedding day, right before our outdoor ceremony, but Sandy was on top of everything and organized guests to help dry and reset our venue behind the scenes. Our wedding was amazing and we owe so much of that to Sandy. I dont make many yelp reviews but our experience with Strings & Champagne Events was so positive that I had to log in and recommend this to anyone looking to host an event in the NorCal area. Thanks again Sandy, you helped us create so many memories that will last a lifetime.

The idea of crafting a wedding ceremony seems a bit daunting but they share a great program that helps the couple craft the perfect ceremony unique to them. I found the program to be easy to use and so helpful in mapping out the narrative. I felt super confident going into our ceremony having reviewed the script beforehand. There were no surprises. Rev. Tan was readily available in the lead up to the day with some tips on the order of the readings and even gave us some pointers on crafting our personal vows. I especially appreciate him respecting our request to wear a face mask during our event. It's little details that really resonated with me given the times. He took care of our marriage license, sent us an image of the signed doc, and mailed it off to the county. Overall, I was so pleased with the ease of his service.
