We honestly couldn't have done this without Rubal! From the very beginning, she took the time to really get to know us--not just what we wanted for our wedding, but what was truly important to us. She made the entire planning process so smooth and stress-free that we were actually able to enjoy it instead of feeling overwhelmed. On the day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch. We had so many guests tell us how well everything was run, and that was all thanks to Rubal. She has amazing vendor connections and used her insights to help us get the best deals, even negotiating with our venue to get us a better offer. Beyond her expertise, what really stood out was how much she genuinely cares. She's passionate, dedicated, and just an absolute joy to work with. If you're looking for a wedding planner who will not only make your life easier but actually make the process fun, we can't recommend Rubal enough! read more

This is a LONG overdue review but also perfectly timed-- this week marks my and my husband's one year wedding anniversary! As we go through pictures and videos, reminiscing and trying to relive every moment, there is one person who appears in all our memories --Rubal. This girl is not only a wedding planner, shes your negotiater, shes your photographer, shes your best friend, cheerleader, therapist, dress fixer, problem solver, everything... I mean the list goes on and on. I truly do not have the words to fully describe what she meant to us during our wedding journey. I can however tell you how deeply grateful both my husband and I are that we choose her to be our wedding planner. From the very first time we interacted we felt calm, supported, and a sense of safety and assurance-- feelings that (in my opinion) are hard to come by while planning a wedding. It's an overwhelming scary time and you don't know if you're doing things right or not. But, Rubal handled every detail with care, professionalism, and so much heart. Her experience in the field along with her creativity truly brought our vision to life more beautifully than we could have ever imagined. She and her team went above and beyond in every way -- coordinating with vendors, managing the timeline, solving problems before we even knew they existed, and making sure everything flowed perfectly. To this day, our 400+ guests still rave about how seamless and beautiful everything was, and we owe so much of that to Rubal. Her passion, meticulous attention to detail, and kind, calming presence made the entire experience not only stress-free and value added, but genuinely joyful. If you're looking for someone who will treat your day like it's their own and ensure it's unforgettable, look no further. Highly, highly recommend! read more

We hired Rubal as our month-of coordinator in the hopes that all of our planning (we spent over a year planning) could go without a hitch on the actual days of the wedding. Indian weddings are multiple day affairs where you have hundreds of people per day/event. We wanted someone who would make sure we were fed, put family members in check (in the nicest way possible), and coordinate with all of our vendors to ensure a smooth operation on the day of. Rubal delivered on all of those fronts and more. I will be honest and say that there were a few glitches along the way, but they were minor and were handled by Rubal in an efficient manner and in a way that would not bother the bride and groom. The glitches were not the "fault" of Rubal but a bit of oversight in the planning in general that none of us caught. Where Rubal went above and beyond is that she tried her best and succeeded in many ways to save us money. She is experienced enough to know when a vendor is BS'ing you on a cost or trying to gouge you for something that should be standard. She even saved us $600 in extra cleaning fees that a vendor was trying to charge! She also has her own list of preferred vendors which are actually quite good. She was a godsend when it came to feeding us during each event. Guests swarm you like flies during a wedding so we were very thankful when she was at the ready with a plate of apps, mains, and desserts during each event. She would literally escort us to a private area to eat and make sure we were full and happy before we went back out to mingle and party with our guests. She was also helpful in communicating with all vendors and creating a detailed timeline of each event as if it were a script for a movie. We are so thankful to her that our wedding went smoothly and that everyone enjoyed themselves and that my wife and I weren't bothered in the slightest during all of the events. This is why you hire a coordinator, and we are glad we chose Rubal. There is a reason she has the most reviews and 5 stars compared to any other Indian wedding planner/coordinator. She isn't the cheapest, but her price is roughly on average with other planners and we can safely say we made the right choice in choosing her for our big day, wouldn't do it any differently. Thanks again, Rubal! read more

Rubal is truly a god-send to us. We met Rubal in Jan 2020 for a wedding date planned for July 2020. She was very friendly and personable on the very first meeting, wanting to know all about us from the very start. She was very easy to open up to and collaborate on the various events that we wanted as part of the wedding celebrations. Within a matter of a couple of weeks of the first meeting, she had all the ideas and plans on paper. She has very good contacts with vendors and was able to lock down dates and budgets which worked well for us. Unfortunately, Covid hit in March 2020 and we had to put all plans on hold. Rubal was very assuring during that time and made sure the vendors stuck to their deliverables for the re-plan. We had to work through a couple of more delays in 2021 and finally went ahead for dates in Apr 2022. Even though we went through a whole lot of uncertainty for almost two years, one thing that gave us comfort was that Rubal was there with us :-) Rubal's planning was great but the execution was impeccable. Everything went smoothly with no hiccups and our family/friends were just amazed with the whole gala. We just couldn't believe it that those 3 days of celebrations went by so quickly, filled with so much fun, love and laughter. We owe it all to Rubal. My wife and I dont consider Rubal as our wedding planner, rather we consider her as our family. Rubal is very detail oriented, organized, good communicator, resourceful and most of all very diligent. We would highly recommend Rubal as your event planner. Thanks Rubal for everything. Love, Gogi and Adi read more

Where do I start with Rubal? Even if there were a rating of 100 stars, I do not think that would be enough to exemplify the professionalism and execution that Rubal displayed during my sister's wedding this past week. We initially had a different planner prior to Rubal who was not bad in our opinion, but I don't think the level of communication was going through with her. So, my sister hired Rubal, that too being 2-3 months away from the wedding. From day one, Rubal did more than she could to help us secure venues, vendors, deals to make our experience easier just everything in our power to make sure we were getting what we wanted. Not to mention, everything that she had found, fit either within our budget or lower than we had hoped for which was super awesome of her. When it came to planning things out, Rubal made sure every detail was covered. We were on multiple calls a month prior to get all the final nitty gritty details finalized and even then Rubal kept on going to make sure we got those handled and sorted. At the time of the actual events, I cannot praise her enough as everything was executed PERFECTLY. There was not a single thing that felt out of place or was headed in the wrong direction. At times, we did fall behind in terms of time, but as an Indian Korean fusion wedding, those things are bound to happen. And even when that did happen, Rubal and her team collectively would instruct with the most professional manner to make sure we were back on track. I have never seen someone act so calm and collected even if things were falling behind. That shows how dedicated and passionate she is about doing this. Seeing her behind the scenes was truly amazing because there was not a single sense of panic or worry that came from her and to me, that speaks nothing but professional. I honestly commend her the way she handled herself in all the events. Thank you! If you're looking for someone who knows what they're doing, will listen to what you need and understands overall how a wedding or an event should be executed, Rubal is your girl. She will spend as much time as she can so that your dream event comes true. Not only will she get you the best results, but she will also ensure everyone is happy at the end of the way which I can personally is a 10000% guarantee. Thank you Rubal, for everything!

I hired Rubal to help me plan my wedding reception, and I don't know what I would have done without her. From dealing with vendors to managing contracts, she handled everything when I was too overwhelmed to do so. Our reception was supposed to be at a different venue, but 4 months prior to the wedding, everything fell through and we had to find a different venue. Rubal handled the transition so smoothly, even though the managers of the new venue were not easy to work with. On the day of the reception, Rubal coordinated everything from start to finish, and I didn't have to worry once about what was happening in the background. Later, I found out that venue managers were trying to shut off the music and stop the party, but Rubal had handled it completely. She's the reason my wedding was a success, and I would recommend her over and over again. read more

Absolute miracle worker. I cannot emphasize enough how amazing and proficient Rubal is. I hired her after things went south with my initial planner to help me with my Korean/Indian wedding. This was 3 months before the day itself. And anyone who knows anything about Indian weddings knows how time consuming and elaborate the work is. Im also new to the area, so having someone reliable to plan and execute my event was a must for me. I called Rubal as we had spoken before during my initial planner search and told her my woes and most importantly, my needs. Within a few hours, without any commitment from my end, she came back to me with a plan, ideas, and vendors that would fit our vision and budget. We had already sunk a lot at this point but her effort was second to none to help us from the get go. From that moment, both my husband and I made the unequivocal decision to hire her and boy, was it the best one. Rubal did everything and more to ensure we were taken care of. She even was able to reverse some of the egregious contractual errors with the venue that our previous planner let happen. She introduced me to vendors that were no less than perfect for what we wanted. Of course there were also low points, stresses, and issues throughout, but Rubal always remained calm, helpful yet firm. Things got done and were always documented. She was always transparent and organized everything with the utmost diligence (particularly the finances and logistics), while also managing all the vendor communications. These things matter. So much. Rubal went above and beyond in every way. We had an incident in which our mithai (sweets) boxes were delayed. Our entire party was already on their way to Napa (the wedding site). Rubal personally went and picked up 60+ boxes and unloaded them, never allowing the stresses to affect us. This is just one of the many things she managed. Again, these things matter. And Rubal fully understands that. The day itself was beyond perfect. Rubal effortlessly resolved issues, big and small, while keeping a smile on her face the entire time. The thing I was most appreciative about was she never let any drama or stress reach me. I didn't hear about a single problem and was left to enjoy my day. I think my husband asked at one point how everything was happening on time/ so seamlessly and answered his own question 2 seconds later, "oh right, Rubal". We are still hearing endless compliments about our wedding and direct praise for Rubal. I tell her she is our hero. She laughs it off, but surely and seriously, she made our wedding. It was sublime. Perfection. And we owe it to her. I would sincerely urge anyone considering a wedding planner to go to Rubal. There really is no other. -- One Happy Bride :) read more

Planning an Indian wedding can be very stressful. Especially during a global pandemic and with a tight timeline (6 months). My husband and I were quickly overwhelmed by the number of decisions and moving parts so we went out in search of a planner to help us. Rubal was a lifesaver. From venue and date selection all the way to day of co-ordination, Rubal was there every step of the way to help make our lives easier and our day truly special. She simplified vendor selection by gathering our thoughts and requirements beforehand and presenting us with a short list to choose from with clear pros and cons. She made sure to keep us within budget and on schedule with payments. And when the big day finally came she kept things running smoothly from start to finish so we could enjoy it without stressing. I highly recommend Rubal to anyone who needs help with any part of the wedding planning process. read more

Thank you Rubal for being a key member of our wedding planning team! Even though we only contracted for coordination services on Saturday and Sunday, Rubal was at my wife's function on Friday making sure things went well. She made sure Natasha was taken care of and dealt with any issues that came up. Rubal truly goes above and beyond for her clients and makes sure that we're well taken care of! read more

Rubal is one of the sweetest and selfless business owners I have ever met. She was so sweet, patient, knowledgeable and understanding with all aspects of the wedding process. My fiancé and I are having an Indian/middle eastern fusion wedding and I was confident Rubal would know how to deal with the chaos of a Indian Arab wedding. As this is the first wedding in my family we didn't know where to start or how to go about anything wedding related. She led us through each step of the way and made us feel so much more relieved knowing I had her by my side. She truly cares about the couple and their happiness and will go above and beyond to deliver for her clients, no matter what requests, envisions or budget you have for the wedding. My fiancé and I ended up being gifted wedding planning through my cousin who is a wedding planner therefore we ended up going through my cousin instead to save money but I would HIGHLY recommend Rubal to anyone in need for wedding planning services! read more

Rubal is a miracle worker! We had hired a different wedding planner initially against our better judgment and were in absolute shambles when Rubal ended up picking up where our initial wedding planner left off. She handled multiple events including the wedding, the reception, and the welcome dinner the night before, as well as a series of mishaps that occurred at no fault of her own, some of which I honestly didn't know happened until after the wedding because she did such a fantastic job of handling everything. My entire family absolutely adored her work, her vendors she supplied us with, the work they did, and the whole event. She kept us sane through the uncertainties of covid and helped us create an event that we have been raving about weeks later. I wish I could explain in words why switching over to her as a wedding planner was such an integral decision for us and there's a million stories to tell. But for those considering her, I would like to tell you from personal experience she will make it well more than worthwhile for you. read more

Rubal is the absolute BEST. Seriously. We initially hired Rubal to help us with day-of coordination for our wedding which was scheduled to happen in April. We had been doing most of the planning work by ourselves up to that point (booking the venue, scheduling vendors, etc), but were starting to get a little overwhelmed as the date got closer. As soon as we got out of our first meeting with her, it felt like a cloud had been lifted off of my shoulders! She was engaged and excited by what we were planning (a super non-traditional fantasy-themed costume wedding), and was able to give us a great deal of information and guidance on what to do next, and it finally started to feel like everything was coming together. But everything changed when COVID-19 attacked... Suddenly, all our plans went down the drain when the lockdowns started just a few weeks before the scheduled date. Rubal was very quick to get in touch with us, checking how we were doing and helping us work through potential back-up plans. Her calm, experienced outlook was exactly what I needed to keep from panicking (though I still panicked a little, not gonna' lie). Ultimately, we decided that the date was too important to us. We didn't want to wait another year or two to make things official, so we decided to call the reception off and do a simple live-streamed, socially-distanced ceremony instead, with just myself and my (now) husband standing 6-feet away from two of our friends (the officiant and witness). Instead of being combative or pushy, Rubal was extremely understanding of our position. Even though she didn't have to, she even called our other vendors on our behalf to request (and, frankly, fight for) refunds! I was honestly dreading having to have "the talk" with each of the other vendors, but Rubal made things a literal breeze. She spoke with each vendor over the phone and by email, made sure to get paper trails for all of their verbal agreements, and even helped track our payouts with a Google spreadsheet! While we technically didn't need to use her services for our actual wedding day, I really can't recommend her enough. Having Rubal on your side is worth every single penny. read more

Literally the greatest wedding planner ever. She helped plan my engagement and nikkah and now I literally love her like my own sister! My favorite thing about Rubal is about how organized she is and how she's a night owl like me. She's so easy to communicate with and made my special day a total breeze. I could not recommend her enough! read more

Rubal is an amazing wedding coordinator and really helped us throughout the process even though she was technically only hired to be our day-of coordinator. Neither of us have family on the West Coast, so planning and organizing and working with vendors was extremely difficult and time consuming. Rubal helped keep us on track, wrangled my family, and kept my anxiety at bay. On the day of, everything pretty much went as smoothly as possible and I don't think a lot of this could've happened without her. I highly recommend working with her! read more

My niece, Sabrina aka 'the Sablet,' is getting married to one of the best men on the planet, Aziz, and planning a wedding, the process un-freakin-believably daunting, not for me, inasmuch as social rituals, anthropological mores and trends are irrelevant. But for my niece and her fiancé, it's a huge event, especially given she's dreamed of getting married since she was two years old, lol :-) She'd get dressed up with jewelry and come flouncing down the stairs swathed in her Mom's sari's, pretending to be an adult bride, days I cherish fondly. I want this to be everything she wants it to be, and she's got a sensible, pragmatic bent, which is why she's not someone who's gonna spend tens and tens of thousands on a single day, wanting instead to make an investment on a home. We were referred to Rubal by another relative, who is herself a wedding/event planner. We set up an initial video complementary consultation with Rubal. Truth: before the call, I was skeptical and internally rolling my eyes a bit, thinking OMG, let the stupidity begin. BUT ... and it's a huge "BUT," Rubal as they say in the corporate world, "far exceeded my expectations!" She is professional, articulate, patient, polished, and knowledgeable about: Every. Single. Thing. Every facet and dimension of our questions she answered with aplomb. It was not only my niece and her Mom (my sister in law), but also me. Between the three of us, a trifecta and avalanche of questioning. we had questions about logistics, venues, decor, food, reception, ceremony. We never once felt rushed. Wedding is bi-cultural (Arabic and South Asian/Indian), especially challenging, and required prior expertise. Not to toot my horn, which I'm doing, but I'm a fairly great judge of intentionality and temperament, and go by my intuition. I can say, with solid conviction, that she's bomb. In a heartbeat and hot minute, I'd recommend her. I love that she has a sense of nuance and subtlety with communique ... for example, nearing the middle of the consult, she broached with uber-subtlety, finance/budget/cost. My niece, with infinite naivety, and all the innocence/charm of someone so young, basically says to Rubal, that "she "didn't know," and threw out a number, to which Rubal gently gave her a reality check and artfully guided her about what she could expect at that price point. She also pointed out that there was actually no minimum cost--she could have a "beautiful" wedding at any price point, just that it would look different that the original vision. I guess if people have millions to spend and the will to spend that much on a single event, god bless. But we were not about to do this. And Rubal was more than willing to work with us at the price point we'd set. I loved and appreciated her patience, especially brimming with information about "vendors" and spreadsheets for cost, guest size, catering, and on and on. Because I don't ascribe to these ritualistic norms, what I appreciated more than anything--and what I deemed most valuable: her emphasis not on the wedding, but on the marriage. How damn refreshing! What a treat! And coming from a wedding/event planner, whose business it is to have a set of values and beliefs? Geezalou, seriously, when nearing the end, she began to talk about how it's really the quality of the MARRIAGE itself, the import of clarity in communicating with each other as a couple, and the gentle artful way she inquired with my niece. ... the wedding is only a day--I saw and noticed all of this, and as a psychologist, it was balm and tonic to my heart, especially as someone who sees couples in distress. Despite that I could tell my niece felt a bit awkward and squirmed a bit under Rubal's direct line of inquiry, these were tough questions to ask and Rubal did it with so much gentle grace. She did this, I should add, without putting pressure on Sabrina, to make a decision. Instead, she gave her space and time to mull things over. Throughout the consult, I sensed her heart and intention in the right place, e.g. she said, "You will always have access to me, to talk to me for anything, anytime; I offer a boutique service, and take on fewer clients so I can give full time ... " Come on, what bride to be wouldn't want to hear this? Most people about to be married are nervous and anxious, apprehensive about their big day, and willing, wishing for all to go according to the fantasy in their minds--and anyone that can ease that future trepidation, they'll sign up for. Rubal seems to get this, and speaks directly to the worry. Love love love ... Rubal is definitely doing something about which she's passionate and loves. It shows that she's in the business of looooove :-)! read more

Rubal did an amazing job with bringing our vision to life for our wedding day! She was very professional, understanding and full of energy. She gave us a lot of great ideas and feedback to improve the experience for our families and guests. All of our events went very smoothly and ran according to our timeline, thanks to Rubal and her team. We couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out! read more

We really enjoyed working with Rubal at my baby shower. She was very professional from day one. What I loved about her is that she's really on trend but also knowledgeable and respectful of traditions and has wonderful ideas to add. She has a very pleasant way of dealing with people and getting things done at the same time. She helped in setting up the decorations at the venue, picking the perfect cake and organizing favors. She exceeded my expectations at the event and I would gladly recommend her to my friends and family and also have her plan my next event. read more

When we set out to begin planning our big day, my partner and I became very budget conscious. This was particularly true after the first few consultations with venues and various vendors. Let's face it, San Francisco isn't a cheap place for anything let alone a wedding. We decided to roll up our sleeves and do what we could to get plans in order while controlling the costs. We were doing well and quite happy with the local vendors we found through referrals, which certainly helped ease the sticker shock. After a few months of emails, meetings, and stressing, it became obvious that no matter how much planning we put in, it still seemed like it was a never ending to do list. Although we had many of the important items checked off, we would still need someone to help execute and bring everything together. Being the scrappy planner I am, I turned to Thumbtack to see if I could find a local planner to do just that. Many of the quotes I received were way out of my price range and many businesses that reached out seemed way more interested in our venues over helping us. Then there was Rubal... From the start Rubal seemed to be more about the big day and uncovering our needs and wants. Her first question on our initial phone consultation was something to the effect of, "Tell me about yourself and your partner, what's your story and what are your hopes for the wedding?" She appreciated the diversity of our vendors, respected the fact that we were trying to own that part of the process, and recognized what her role needed for us to have our "day in paradise". Throughout the whole process, Rubal was nothing short of amazing. She was willing to negotiate a price we were comfortable with based on the amount of work we had already put in and although we had some outstanding vendors, she jumped in made sure we had a list of backups to fill any gaps. She was full of tips and tricks when it came to logistics and cost savings and would send us reminders of the little things we should think about that were outside her perview, but important none the less. She even showed up to the décor walk through the day after she was in an accident leaving her car totaled! With Rubal, our big to do list was finally shaping up to be an event we could imagine. The other thing about working with Rubal was her listening abilities and compassion. I even joked that she was my wedding therapist. Wedding planning is stressful, especially when you have a fiancé that likes to insert their opinion, but won't necessarily follow through with getting things accomplished. It can be a strain on any of your relationships whether you realize it in the moment or not. It was invaluable to have Rubal call me up, listen, and figure out how she could help not only get the task accomplished, but leave me feeling like was going to be okay. On the big day, everything went very smoothly. Rubal made sure if we were falling behind schedule, that we moved along so we could catch up. There were so many people and things going on that we wouldn't have been able to deal with without her. We ended up hearing stories and feedback from guests that we had no idea happened that night because Rubal would step in and resolve the issues before it got word to us. Not to sound cliché, but we were so lucky to be afforded our dream wedding and I can confidently say that it would not have been anything near that without Rubal and her team. I would happily recommend Events by Rubal to anyone looking to actually enjoy their wedding. When she says, "stress no more", she truly means it. read more

Where do I even begin? Affordable, professional, detail oriented, kind, patient, and the list goes on... I feel so lucky to have found Rubal to help plan my wedding. She truly became part of my family during this process. She was there for every question I needed answered and also helped me get the smallest details together to make my wedding the most perfect ever. I have received soooooo many compliments from family, friends AND the other vendors about how great she was to work with. She really puts so much effort into everything about your special day. She also checked in the day/week before and day of to simply ask how I was feeling and to remind me to enjoy and relax because it will be perfect. I really could not have imagined working with anybody else. I highly highly highly recommend having Rubal help with your special day. She's absolutely amazing and I will probably work with her again some day if we ever renew our vows!! read more

Three words, Rubal is AMAZING! Not only is she professional, well-connected and attentive to detail, but she is also very accommodating which I cannot express is so important especially when planning an Indian wedding. She was always on top of her game, has a very creative eye, and was able to execute our vision beautifully. Rubal's experience and expertise and timeliness was apparent right from the start when we had our first meeting. Even on the day of, we had a few hiccups (unavoidable when you have such a large wedding) and she handled all challenges without us knowing until the next day! We cannot express how much we appreciate her help through the crazy planning process - If you want your vision for your special day to be executed perfectly then Rubal is your person! read more

Working with Rubal has been so delightful! She has a strong and diligent work ethic that shows her passion and care for the wedding industry and her clients.

I get to witness how happy Rubal's clients are when she gives them a beautiful hair style. They exude happiness and excitement from her work!

Rubal did an amazing job throwing our baby shower. She took care of all the details from ordering the cake to organizing the games and food selection. Our original dj cancelled like 2 days before the event and she jumped in to find us the perfect replacement for much cheaper. She worked with our budget and found the best deals for us. I would recommend her for all your event needs, big or small read more

It was one of the most important days of our lives, and it was also arguably one of the best! Rubal was on top of every little detail - she handled both the planned and unplanned items with prompt and efficient responses. We received so many compliments for our venue, food, music and entertainment; however, the best compliments of all are those we still receive of how FLAWLESS and FUN the wedding reception was -- all undoubtedly thanks to Rubal.

I had the best experience with Rubal as my event coordinator for my son's wedding! She helped me with all the traditional events like Mehandi, Sangeet, wedding, and the reception! She worked with all the vendors like decorators, entertainment, caterers, and the hotel staff for reception very diligently! She was always present for me. She made all the events run very smoothly! She was my RiGhT Hand! Any time there was any issue she took care of that. She made sure that all the guest were well taken care off. She took this job as it was her family event.i am very fortunate to know her and continue to have her do my other family weddings! read more

I can't put into words how amazing it was having Rubal plan and direct a major business event. We had over 300 guests plus extensive security, over 30 cooks, servers, caterers and staff, and she managed them all masterfully. The best way to tell your event planner is awesome is that you feel like a VIP guest at your event and get to enjoy it all without even a thought of logistics or worry. That's precisely how my wife and I felt. Rubal made everything work seamlessly behind the scenes and we had an amazing time. Rubal was the reason we actually got to totally enjoy our event along with the guests. I can't recommend anyone more highly for weddings, celebrations and business events. She is smart, energetic, dedicated, patient and kind. Truly a special person. read more

Hiring Rubal was hands down the smartest decision we made during the planning process. Every single bit of the experience was nothing short of incredible. Because of Rubals guidance, our engagement ceremony, Jaago/Sangeet, wedding and reception was wonderful and surpassed our expectations! From the first few discussions to the last song on the reception night, Rubal had us covered every step of the process without getting anxious or stressful. At no point did we ever feel rushed or forced into anything. Preparing for so many events can be stressful but her fun, excited and easy going attitude made everything complete of joy and added to our excitement for our Big day! She was 100% on top of everything from before the wedding. Even though she is located in Bay Area, she was still able to make my engagement ceremony in Los Angeles come to perfect reality and she even traveled with us to LA. She managed all our events extremely so well, and everything went off without any issues because of her attention to detail. If I could Rubal 3,678 stars I would. I cannot recommend her enough, it was an amazing experience through and through!! read more

I always wanted a destination wedding but I had no idea where to even begin. Trying to figure it all out on my own became extremely overwhelming. I got in touch with Rubal and from even after our first conversation I felt more at ease. Her positive vibes and enthusiasm won me over right away. She really asked me what I wanted and where I wanted it to be. Instead of pushing me towards a location she waited for me to decide. All along the way she was very responsive and intentive. Provided good information on various locations before finally I finally set my heart on Puerto Vallarta. She really understood my vision and allowed me to have creative freedom through thaw entire planning process . She never pushed any ideas on me. She stood by my side the entire time and allowed me to make my dream wedding come to life without stepping on my toes. Thanks to Rubals help, my wedding was a breeze. All I had to worry about was getting myself there on time. She arranged everything from catering, seating, invitations, down to hair. I could not be more pleased! I could not imagine having to deal with all the other stressors while I was preparing for my big day. She really listens, understands, and gains your trust. The peace of mine Rubal provides is priceless! I would recommend her 1000 times over. Thank you Rubal for making one of my dreams come true!! read more

We have the Rubal to thank for the most beautiful, seamless and perfect day in our lives! From the moment we hired Rubal, we felt not one ounce of stress or worry for our wedding day. Who knew wedding planning could be so fun? Rubal is the sweetest, most creative, talented and organized person and it genuinely shows through her amazing events.

Rubal was absolute PERFECTION as our wedding coordinator! We've had multiple weddings in our family and I never met a wedding vendor who has been both delightfully pleasant to work with and be around and extremely organized. She was phenomenal and such a thorough professional, she was willing to work through event timeline late into the evening and accommodate into the schedule all the small details we wanted to incorporate. Always open to a workaround and never shut down any ideas or said that won't be feasible in the event timeline she was provided advise without being condescending. Also she made sure everything was according to schedule but NEVER rushed the bride and groom or any ceremony details. Rubal was on top of handling multivendor interactions, timeline, and cat-herding guests all while have a warm radiant smile on her face! The best part she made sure that as bride and groom we take tiny moments for ourselves and enjoy our special day! I could go on and on about how wonderful she was! I genuinely wish her all the very best! RUBAL YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Thank you!!!! read more

Rubal gets it done! From negotiating with vendors, to getting you out of bed when you've had it with planning. I've see her work through intense pressure finding vendors when they've dropped the ball & perfecting details at weddings. She will stop at nothing to make your event memorable! read more
