Fred Hammond provided DJ services at our wedding at the 10th Lodge on Vail Mt on July 19. His…read moreservices were incredible from start to finish. Setting up music with Fred was a blast, really fun picking songs for our playlist and getting his thoughts. Music at the wedding was perfect. He was there for us throughout. His equipment worked great at the ceremony and party, He "MC'd" at the wedding, introducing speakers and toasts in a super cool, low key way. Was on it. And reasonable pricing. Really strongly recommend Fred for your event.

My husband and I got married in Vail July of this year and in an attempt to minimize costs we chose…read moreto book a DJ who was not local to the area. Unfortunately there was inclement weather the afternoon of our wedding resulting in a road closure that our DJ would not be able to make it to our ceremony. We found out just under two hours prior to the ceremony start time. Thankfully we had an incredible wedding planner (Jenny at Stargazed Weddings & Events) who called Fred asking if he could make it in time and he graciously agreed. I truly owe everything to Fred and hate thinking about what our ceremony could have looked like had he not have been available. My wedding planner warned me that he had no time to prepare for our ceremony and would do the very best he could given the time constraints but that I may need to adjust my expectations on our music being perfect. I was pleasantly surprised that everything was PERFECT! In under one hour to prepare for this ceremony he absolutely blew me away. Fred truly saved the day and we will be forever grateful to him.

Not sure how this women is a wedding planner or how she even has a 5 star review!?! This is the…read morereason I hired her but soon I would regret it. I hired Priscilla for the entire planning of my wedding which was 3,000 she collected half upfront and the rest would be 2 weeks before my wedding. From the very beginning, I had a bad feeling about working with this planner. She was often unresponsive to my emails and calls, even during the crucial stage of finding my venue. I personally set up about 10 venue appointments, while she only arranged 4. I was already close to firing her and had even started a claim with my bank to recover my $1,500 deposit. Once she realized how serious I was, she apologized and promised to improve -- and unfortunately, I decided to give her a second chance. She did help me find a florist that matched my vision, and I am grateful for that. However, that small success does not make up for her overall lack of follow-through. Afterward, her effort quickly declined again. I had to repeatedly reach out and remind her to help me find a bakery for my cake, which she never did beyond contacting one vendor that didn't work out. When I asked her for a general sequence of events for the wedding (so I could plan the timing of the toast, cake cutting, and dancing), instead of providing guidance, she just sent me a list of questions. After that, communication dropped off completely. Now, with only three months left before my wedding, she still hadn't checked in or offered any help. I decided to terminate her services, and she dismissed my concerns as "anxiety toward wedding planning." In reality, I paid her $3,000 and received little to no results. Please be aware and make sure you truly connect with and vet your vendors before signing a contract. I am still trying to reach a resolution, but she remains unresponsive. I intend to pursue this matter fully, as it's unfair for professionals to take advantage of clients during such important moments. BE AWARE.

I am…read moreso thankful she fit me into her schedule last minute after I had to get out of a situation with a different event planning company, she truly SAVED me from what could have been so much heartache on my wedding day. After dealing with the most scatterbrained planners, I started interviewing new planners and during my initial consultation with her I felt immediate RELIEF! (A welcomed feeling after months of prior stress.) Seeing examples of her spreadsheets and attention to every detail and hypothetical scenario was the exact type of luxury event planning service I had been seeking all along. I cannot recommend her enough for anyone planning a Colorado mountain wedding. She is gracious, kind, focused, and advocated for me every step of the way. She not only made my vision come to life but also offered her own creativity to make our event look amazing and run flawlessly. She was always there in my times of need during our 90-day planning speed-run. No questions left unanswered, no details left unwritten. After my previous nightmare situation, she made me entirely comfortable handing over my event to her due to her consistent communication and transparency. I am so, so lucky to have reached out to her and have her take a chance on me. During our wedding I had many guests tell me it was the best wedding they had ever been to! I truly thank her for her time and effort. You definitely get what you pay for and then some with Gemini Event Planning!

I had a fairly defined, eclectic aesthetic that I was hoping to achieve for the reception, and Christine totally "got it". She helped me get to the finish line while staying cool, calm and collected.

I am sad that I don't get to talk with her all the time anymore- it was truly a pleasure. I recommend her wholeheartedly.
