Post-wedding review: venue was great…read more Coordination/answering questions regarding wedding planning was great. It was a bit annoying having to fill out the DJ forms several times and repeating similar info, but I understand we were caught in between them switching systems. Not everything was perfect, but nothing in life will ever be perfect. It was raining on the morning of the wedding, so we were very close to having to switch everything indoor. We made the call at around 2:30/3pm for a 4pm ceremony, so naturally some seats were missing and the staff had to shift things around last min. The staff graciously let us into the venue an hour early because the weather was not great. We had originally planned to start with the makeup service outdoor first. Venue's indoor bathroom toilets was not clean when we first entered. Good thing my bridesmaid checked and we were able to inform the staff before guests arrived. They took care of it immediately. I do highly recommend having a second coordinator, or have someone in the wedding party as well reversed in the wedding schedule/plan as the bride. There was mixed information at a point, and that resulted some confusion during the photos with friends and family at the alter. As a person who plans/organize/coordinate event for work occasionally, I couldn't help but felt the urge to push things along at several times during the wedding to keep the schedule on track. (Ie: vendors were supposed to eat at 6:30, so they can be ready to serve desserts/do photos at 7pm, but I had to remind the staff again. It's understandable that they wanted to wait for the vendors to be settled in first, but I really wanted to make sure things were on schedule since we only had 2 hours booked for the dessert vendor.) The DJ was good, but he did ask us questions on the day of. Some of those questions could've been redirected to the coordinator, but I guess he wanted to make sure. I did wish he asked some of the questions earlier since we had guests standing in front of the mansion & the wedding party was ready to make the grand entrance, but we were waiting for the DJ to ask questions and then make his way to his station. In the grand scheme of things, it was fine, but I was hoping for guests to do less waiting while doing nothing. The tabling layout was a bit off centered from what I had originally planned, but it was too chaotic on the day of to actually check and make adjustments. I was told that they needed to leave the space there originally so they can move things around, but that they will readjust the tables afterward. I did not have time to check the table after they did the first adjustment. As for the hor d'ourves, I was told that they'd prepare a separate plate for the bride and the groom, but it was actually a separate plate for the whole wedding party. I don't think we got enough for everyone because my husband and I only got to eat one out of the 5 we chose (we paid for extras). We did have to leave for photos immediately and asked the staff to put them in the bridal suite for us. My brother stole/ate a few of them while we were taking pictures, so I had to ask for more and they only had chicken skewer left...and it was cold.

Recently had my daughter's sweet 16 here…read more I would give them 4.5 stars because so much was awesome and went right!! Very beautiful venue. They even gave me a discount which I'm truly grateful for. Claire our coordinator was very kind and helpful. During planning process we emailed many times. Then Christina( her manager) would take over. Christina was nice but I got a vibe she knew best. Felt rushed at times and communication felt insincere. I understand the time line was a quick one so that's not their issue. I knew they wanted to help. The food was delicious including the desserts!! We tasted the whole menu at the Granda a month prior. The food is excellent!! The decorations were completed by Luxe. Savannah who was very patient and met with my daughter and I twice to review. Quite pricey. Table centerpieces beautiful. Stairway was pretty. All decorations beautiful. The seating chart was done last minute and Christina did a wonderful job! I really appreciate Leal helping with last minute DJ and allowing an outside karaoke last minute. They did not need to do that, and they did! As far as the night of party lighting not so great. It was like a spotlight was on you. I had asked and a few others had asked about lighting. My daughter's theme was Midnight Enchanted garden. Way too bright. Willow heights allowed balloon company to come in early to help with balloon ceiling which was a super plus! I had hoped for a coffee station. Even though it was shared it would be there it was forgotten. S'mores area was darling but maybe a few low seats would have helped so kids could sit around fire pit. Dj Darren was great however I had hoped for him to help get the teens to dance. Maybe a dance off? My daughter hoped for that also. He had added some personalized touches which everyone greatly enjoyed. The staff was kind and helpful. This is not leals issue but it may have helped for coordinator to recommend photos outside with tea lights and fountain during night hours. I didn't think to ask photographer and photographer left before I could ask. I emailed a few times after event and no one responded. Would help to send out an after event review form. With that said I would book again. I'll just be more in advance and I'll be strict with asks.

I cannot recommend Nasreen highly enough--she is a true artist, a calming presence, and an absolute…read morejoy to work with. From the very beginning, Nasreen took the time to truly get to know me as a bride. She didn't just ask what flowers I liked--she wanted to understand the feeling I wanted on my wedding day, the atmosphere, the little details, and what truly mattered to me. Every conversation felt thoughtful and collaborative, and I deeply appreciated her wisdom in helping me navigate what would and wouldn't work, based on her experience. If you're lucky enough to work with her--ask for her opinion. She brings so much insight and heart to the process. On the day of our wedding, I was completely blown away. The floral designs were beyond anything I had imagined--stunning, lush, and full of life and meaning. When I sat down with my husband at our sweetheart table, I genuinely felt like the flowers were embracing us with love and joy. The bouquets, the installations, every detail was exquisite. It was like stepping into a dream. Nasreen helped make our day unforgettable--not only with her breathtaking creations, but with her kind soul and the care she pours into every petal and every moment. I am so grateful for her and will forever treasure the beauty she brought into our lives.

Love love love Nasreen! She took it to another level with all of the floral arrangements for my…read moredaughter's wedding. She responds quickly and had no issues with last minute changes.

My wife and I had our wedding and reception at the amazing Willow Heights Mansion this past summer…read more As part of WHM's event venue package, they require that you work with their in-house (i.e., Frank Léal-owned) decorating service, Luxe Design & Decor. We wanted to minimize our planning efforts and reduce the number of vendors we'd need to hire, so this was a win-win for us. Working with Luxe was a great experience from beginning to end. We had an initial consultation with Savannah and quickly settled on a theme, table settings, chairs, etc. They had a wide selection from which to choose, and we definitely felt like we had many great options without being overwhelmed by choice. We later went to Luxe's new space in downtown Morgan Hill where we viewed a mocked up table set with all of our selections--this made it so easy to visualize what we were going to get on the day of the wedding. We made a few adjustments and Savannah simply grabbed the new items from storage. We quickly settled on the final design and pricing. Overall, working with Luxe was a breeze and Savannah is a real pro. She made helpful suggestions based on our preferences but ultimately we were in the driver's seat. The actual event turned out beautifully, and we could not have been happier with the decor. We highly recommend Luxe for your event decorating needs!

A huge shout out to Savannah, Holly, and Nicole!! Every detail was thoughtful. We still can't get over how stunning everything looked, from the florals to the ceremony setup to the reception tables. Our guests were blown away, and we were completely speechless. The Luxe team poured so much love, creativity, and care into our day. Their professionalism and vision were unmatched, we fully trusted them and they delivered in ways we didn't even know were possible. To anyone looking for a team that can bring your dream wedding to life (and then elevate it ten levels beyond that) look no further. Luxe Design Decor is pure magic.

We arrived here…read morearound 10:45 am to set up for an appreciation event, and we ended up parking at the wrong lot. I managed to find someone, Jenna, who pointed me to the right direction. She was a lifesaver since I had some people with me in which walking far distances isn't as accessible. Once we are all on the venue, we were focused on setting up decorations. Jenna came in super strong with lifting hay bales and everything for our western themed party. While setting up, Denise gave me a quick run down of what's being served; their menu catered to everyone from meat eaters, picky eaters, and vegetarians. The venue itself is beautiful to walk in to breathe in natural air, see horses, and play a variety of games from ping pong, basketball, horse shoe, or bean bag toss, and they even offer face painting for the kids and adults too. Their bathrooms are impeccably clean and well managed. Their team did so well in serving the guests of the event! Shoutout to Nancy for being so nice and extra welcoming to the guests when serving them food. Despite the warmth, the event was a success because of the great staff and team at Coyote Ranch. Can't wait to come here again for a future company event!

We hired Lavender Crown for their Canine Coordination for wedding/ wedding rehearsal and they did…read moresuch a wonderful job with our fur babies. The handled our pups at rehearsal, during the ceremony, and during cocktail hour.

I just want to say THANK YOU so much to the ladies of Lavender Crown (Michelle & Penny) for taking the best care of our boys during/ after our wedding. We are so grateful for the love and care you showed them . I know Jiro & Rupert have quite the anxieties, but you guys did such a wonderful job with them and they trusted you two .

We don't know how we would've pulled off our wedding without Michelle and her incredible team at…read moreLavender Crown. My now wife and I live in New York City, and Michelle helped us plan our wedding in California (where I'm from), a challenge she handled with absolute ease. From day one, she wasn't just our planner; she became a friend and a steady source of support through every step of this crazy process. No matter how many decisions we had to make or last-minute ideas we threw at her, Michelle handled everything with patience, professionalism, and a genuine passion that made us feel comfortable A few standout moments that meant the world to us: - Michelle was incredibly accommodating of our situation--meeting with us virtually while we were in New York and scheduling in-person meetings when we were back in California. - Michelle created a separate timeline for one of our bridesmaids, working with her directly, who needed time to pump and ensured it was seamlessly integrated into our wedding schedule, - When we had to pivot from our original hair and makeup artist relatively close to the wedding, Michelle handled it with grace and found alternatives that made us feel completely comfortable. - When our venue coordinator unexpectedly left without a word, Michelle took charge of all communication with the venue, navigating through the chaos and ensuring everything stayed on track--even with many unresolved items lingering right up until the big day. On the big day, she kept everything running smoothly, and we never had to worry about a thing. Even when unexpected hiccups popped up (because, let's be real, they always do), we knew she had our backs. Of course, no wedding is without its challenges, and we faced a few bumps with our venue and vendors, but Michelle did everything she could to problem-solve and make things right. Her ability to stay calm under pressure and find solutions in the moment made all the difference--we truly can't imagine having gone through this without her. If you're looking for someone who is organized, thoughtful, and just an all-around amazing person to have in your corner, Michelle and Lavender Crown are the way to go. We are beyond grateful for everything she did to make our wedding day special. Thank you, Michelle you're truly the best!

Heidi was a joy to work with and I feel we've been become friends through working together. =) Our Baby Shower was on a Sunday, and since there was no events the Saturday before she let us in that event to set up. I can not tell you how much stress that took off our shoulders. We were able to take our time and not worry about it the morning off. Since my family is from out of town and we live in Gilroy, this really helped with the unloading and just overall timing of getting ready that day. PROS: - Food separate from party: My dad and uncle cooked using our own BBQ's behind the grange. We did buffet style tacos in the kitchen. I liked that this was separate was the party and it gave us more room for seating. - Tables and Chair included: The venue has plenty of rectangle tables and the comfortable plastic chairs (not the metal chairs). - Side room: perfect for kids! I made custom coloring pages and put some toys in there. There were a lot of kids there but I hardly saw any of them because this room kept them occupied. - Frig: to keep cake and fruit chilled - Restrooms: plenty, never any wait time. - Cleanliness: the place was spotless when we arrived, very pleased with the cleanliness. - Parking: on site for the event, and plenty around. - drinks: with the one day event insurance we were able to bring in our own beer and wine. No bar staff needed. CONS: - seats per table: the chairs and comfy because they are wider, but this means we were only able to fit 3 next to each other per side. This made my count of table/chairs/centerpieces off a bit as I planned 4 chairs per side per table. Not a big a deal in the end but something to think about if your tables plan to touch like ours. -No A/C: we got lucky and it wasn't as hot as I thought it was going to be and there are fans on the ceiling and some floor fans. But as the girl of the hour running around I was so sweaty (probably cuz I'm also 31 weeks preg) but at least the guests were comfortable. I made paper fans for guest to use just in case. Overall, we will definitely be using this venue again!

I needed an event hall for my upcoming wedding so I reached out to a few vendors on Yelp. I called…read morethem expecting them offer various halls, like the pictures on their page. In reality, they actually had everything I needed for my wedding vendor search. It started off with a meeting to go over the things we were searching for. Once done, they sent our request to their network of service providers, which included all the event halls in the Bay Area. The event halls appear to have some type of partnership with the company, which allowed us to take advantage of discounts that wouldn't have been possible had we reached out directly. Whatever the case, I got quotes from the same places I was looking into, for lower rates. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking to plan your wedding and are on a budget.
