Our wedding was the best day!! Better than we could have imagined. From the first call we had with Alex, we knew we wanted her as our planner. The vibes felt right, and we loved that she would help us bring our vision to life by including design. We picked the partial planning & design package but honestly, after working with her, we wished we had just done full service planning. In our first meeting we gave her an idea of what we had envisioned for the day, including a shared pinterest board. From there she made a design deck that really brought our day to life. Alex provided the best vendor recommendations (including for some with whom she had relationships and discounts), thoughtful design ideas, and guidance on the overall flow of the day. She joined us for our food tasting, met with us in person to pick out our rentals, and she coordinated a site visit with the vendors in preparation for the wedding. We didn't think we needed a content creator, but she even provided us with one and it was a great addition to capturing the memories of the day! Throughout the planning process, Alex was easy to reach, responsive, collaborative, open to feedback, and genuinely easy to work with. On the day of the wedding, Alex brought everything together seamlessly. She handled every detail behind the scenes, even things that didn't go as planned were handled quickly and professionally. This really allowed us to be fully present and actually enjoy the day. When I walked down the aisle for the first time, I was blown away!! It was BEYOND, BEYOND what we had even hoped for. We are soo blessed and grateful that we got to work with Alex. In the words of my husband - Earth & Events really cooked!! 10/10 recommend, expectations fully exceeded! Thank you Alex!! read more

Alex, a few years later and you want to respond on here to my previous review of your low quality work. Your response is full of lies. I'm sure you were not sick that day because I watched your Instagram stories that day and you were at another event, maybe a bigger event than mine. If you were truly sick I'm sure you would have to communicate it to me. This whole day was a disappointment since I loved your work on your social media that's why I booked you. But seems like money is what you value more. You offer to pay me to take my post down yet you don't respond to my emails. So at the end of the day, it's you who can't communicate. You choose not to respond and now you want to act like this, years later. read more

We were married on a balmy September day in a villa burrowed in a lush Tuscan-foothill town called Lucca, Italy. Even when we booked the place two years in advance, we knew no matter how much we planned--this was going to be an ordeal. In the midst of finishing school and starting careers, we'd need to get our families, friends and many, many heavy bags from California and over the Atlantic and throw a party so good it would be worth all the trouble. All without exploding from stress until, at least, after the "I do's" (with our dog in tow to boot). But, to make things just a little bit more intense, we both wanted our dream "editorial" wedding, something we'd been envisioning and manifesting since we started dating at 16. We were ready to put in the hours and the work to make it happen, but we knew we had to find someone with an inordinate amount of skill, like someone born to be a planner, to chart and direct our efforts to our ever, admittedly, lofty goals (and having competitive pricing wouldn't hurt!). Enter Alex and Earth and Events. From our first Zoom call, Alex calmly led the way--through picking cuisines, to florals, to a photographer, to stationary, to a dj, to desserts, to drapery, to chairs, to make up, to seating charts, etc., etc. (but she went beyond all that too--on quite short notice she took her mom on a vacation and flew to meet us in Italy a year before the wedding to explore the venue, theorize seating and dinner setups, and just to better understand Tuscany). Alex quickly showed that she was the kind of person we could trust with every detail, every idea, and every last action item. And, not that we ever left the wheel--we felt like we pestered her night and day to ask her opinion on a zillion things (and otherwise keep her posted on our every imaginable anxiety). But through it all, she remained calm and centered. Her approach was pragmatic and certain of results. And it makes sense--please take a moment to see the photos attached. Zoom in and notice her command of myriad details and then zoom out to appreciate her creation of scenes. Alex has heaps of creative skill. And when you have this much skill, there really isn't a problem you can't overcome or smooth over in achieving your client's vision. And trust us, when you are planning an international wedding, things come up--and even go wrong--because everything is just a bit closer to the edge. But this isn't a story about things going wrong. This a five star review because Alex not only delivered on the vision, but solved our every problem along the way. And we are so grateful for the memories so vibrant and amorous they'll last a lifetime. So, congratulations, you just found the best planner in Northern California--and its our blessing to call Alex our friend. read more

... well we got pregnant. As said in my last review, Earth & Events planned our baby shower! Alex was able to curate the perfect baby shower based off of our theme "A Baby is Brewing!" She developed a super cute coffee shop themed mood board for us to choose from. The mood board included speciality coffee drinks, and an array of other unique offerings. She was able to secure a sweet little coffee shop, a caterer, florals, and team who made donuts onsite! I may be a bit biased, but it was by far the best baby shower! The talent and keen attention to detail of Alex and her team is unmatched! read more

Alex- a true star and visionary in her own right. I wanted to have a big birthday party with all my loved ones and I feel so thankful to have found someone who brought all my wildest fantasies to life. She made an event with 40+ people feel like a breeze. Anything I wanted to incorporate she was sought options for and even built upon. Truly, if you have any outrageous idea, she can execute it with such beauty and class. I was truly stunned. She's worth every penny, and I'm now itching for my partner to propose simply because I want to have the most lavish event ever thrown by her! Alex, thank you a million times over and I hope everyone uses your services for any get together they can! read more

I cannot imagine what our wedding would have been like without Alex and her team. From the moment I contacted Alex, she was so kind and responsive. Especially, for a nervous and stressed bride like myself, she responded to every single text I sent to her, which helped put my mind at ease. In addition to her picnic tables, arch, countertops, table settings, and decor, she also helped recommend the florist and furniture rental company that we ended up using. She was able to set up her supplies and decor as well as help guide the other vendors that I hired to know where to place things. And helped break down and throw everything away so we could leave worry-free about cleanup. I had full trust that she would make our wedding look great but she totally exceeded our expectations! Everything looked so great and it was such a beautiful day. Everyone has been complimenting how great everything looked and we really couldn't have done it without Alex and her team. It really made our little wedding so special. THANK YOU! read more

Earth and Events came into my life just at the right time. Wedding planning is so overwhelming and I knew I needed help aligning my overall vision. Modern, elegant, and whimsical were my inspiration for this lifelong day and Alexandra and her team brought my vision to life far beyond what I could have dreamt. We worked with E&E a year prior to our wedding day and throughout all of our date changes due to covid Alex handled all of our timeline challenges with grace. Her vendor recomendations felt more like friends throughout the planning processed and were responsive to my questions all along the way. I will be referring Earth and Events for all of my future events for my friends who are planning engagements, proposals, and weddings! I can't wait to receive the rest of my wedding photos! The entire event felt like a dream. read more

I highly recommend working with Earth and Events for your next event! read more

Reached out needing decor 6 days before my event!! The person who answered the line was Alex who seemed Interested and led me to believe she was working on the back end to get the inventory needed for my event. I texted to follow-up with her 3 days before my event when she responds " Hi there. Apologies for the delay, but unfortunately we are fully booked." I host events for the biggest hospital in the nation, and on the phone with vendors hosting large events daily. When booking decor/event planning, customer service and someone reliable is important. I highly suggest a contract, before booking this company. I made this mistake, and would hate the same for you... read more

I am still in awe. We hired Earth and Events to host a dinner party at our place and the team surpassed our expectations in every dimension. We booked 2 months in advance and were left at ease, as Alex communicated next steps in a timely manner, did a preliminary sight visit, and got us reasonable deal with the vendors that were subcontracted. Overall the dinner was very classy, high end, and timeless. I can't wait to find another occasion celebrate with Earth and Events read more

Earth and Events - Beautiful picnic setup! So instagrammable. Alex's magical hands! - Party & Event Planning Near Me

Alex did such a great job planning and executing my birthday picnic. I am generally very picky about my aesthetic and have trust issues lol leaving things in other people's hands, but Alex has such a great eye for design and understood my vision perfectly. She was very professional -- she set up an initial phone call to get to know more about what I wanted, was very responsive via email/text/phone and worked with me to make sure I was comfortable with the budget. She was able to recommend a great location to host the picnic in, and overall the event was a huge hit among my friends who attended. Everyone was blown away by the beautiful set up and design. I highly recommend Earth and Events and would definitely book them again for future events. read more

The table was beautifully set up. There was also a sanitation table and extra blankets for us!

Alex and her team helped me plan a beautiful, idyllic picnic for a friend's graduation! Alex quickly responded to any questions I had and handled all requests despite them being last minute. The picnic itself was both comfortable and aesthetic. It was over 92 degrees outside that day but our picnic greeter Erynn found the perfect spot in the shade which was the perfect temperature. Additionally, Erynn picked up our food order for us that day and Alex kept us updated on any potential delays (on the restaurant's behalf). Despite the restaurant delays, Erynn was still able to deliver our food on time. read more
