She introduced me to her partner Sharona and both were able to make every detail that I had in my head come true. I'm in the catering industry and chose to do the catering of my own wedding, however, I couldn't really manage the catering being my wedding and all, so I was able to rely on this dynamic duo to make it happen. Once again I thank you guys. You guys took care of business. You guys took care of every detail that I haven't had even thought of. Definitely a solid choice.

Their attention to details are amazing. They can work under pressure and solve the problems really quick. Adjust with what's happening and make Plan B, C, and D. Easy to work with. Very humble. Very passionate about what they do, which is important. They will go the extra mile just to get the things done properly. Seriously. Many wedding organizer got nervous when things doesn't go according to the plan, but Mira and her Event Bar team, are not like that. They are super calm and very professional. Looking forward working together with them again in the near future.

Working with the Joyfully team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the very…read morebeginning, they were incredibly supportive, organized and genuinely excited to bring our vision to life. We planned our entire wedding in a short 3 month timeframe, which could have easily been overwhelming, but they made the whole process feel calm and even enjoyable! Our reception venue came with its own set of challenges since it was essentially just a blank room. Blaire, Hannah, and Sharon really stepped in and they guided us through every single detail, from layout and rentals to flow and timing. Toward the end of the planning process, we needed to make some last minute adjustments which could have been stressful so close to the wedding date. But Blaire truly went above and beyond, she stepped in and made sure everything was handled exactly the way we wanted. We couldn't have asked for a better coordination team and highly recommend!!

We loved working with Joyfully! My MOH had complimented me saying that I was such a "chill bride"…read morethe day of my wedding and I have Joyfully to thank for that. They handled everything for me the day of from vendor set up all the way to clean up at the end of the night. I was able to enjoy the whole day and not worry about anything logistically. If there were any hiccups, I did not know. Prior to wedding day, the whole planning process was so easy. They scheduled calls with us regularly to review what we still needed to do on our to do list and also our design idea. They made finding vendors easy based on our design inspo and they did the initial reach outs for us. The week leading up to the wedding I had nothing to do and nothing to worry about besides getting my nails done and hair cut! We loved working with the entire Joyfully team! They answered all of our questions and handled so much behind the scenes. I have been telling all of my friends their full service planning package is the best money I spent for my wedding.

From the moment we hired Christine, we felt an immense weight lifted off our shoulders. We knew we were in the right hands. She and her team somehow made what can be a daunting and overwhelming process feel effortless from start to finish. Not only did Christine plan and execute a luxury wedding in less than six months, but she did it without a single hiccup. Our wedding day was flawless... and I don't say that lightly. It was truly perfect. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, every timeline was executed seamlessly, and every element came together exactly as envisioned. Because of Christine and her team, we were able to completely shut our brains off and be fully present, enjoying every moment of our day. That is such a rare gift for a bride and groom. The compliments we received were endless, with so many guests telling us, "This was the best wedding we've ever been to." While hearing that felt incredible, we know the credit belongs to Christine and her team. Their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail are unmatched, and it's easy to see why they are considered among the best in the industry. We will be forever grateful for everything they did to make our wedding day more perfect than we ever could have imagined.

Absolutely Perfect - "The Rest Is History!"…read more We recently celebrated our son's wedding, and we are still in awe of how perfectly everything came together--thanks entirely to Christine Garrison and her incredible team at CMG Weddings and Events.

Unfortunately, I was not able to have the Forever & Always Wedding that I dreamed of. Although…read moreHeather communicated very well, there were a couple of incidents that I found slightly unprofessional: 1. I signed a contract with one of her staff as my wedding planner. Unfortunately, from my understanding, there were unexpected changes in the company, so Heather had to take over. However, Heather responded that she would make an exception for me and not charge me an additional $1000 for this change. With all due respect, I should not be financially penalized for changes that an owner experiences; especially since I already signed the contract that I financially agreed to. 2. I encountered a lot of life changes that disrupted my ability to move forward with a wedding that my brothers were supposed to be in. For instance, I had a depressed, suicidal brother, I had another brother leave for Japan for the Marines, and I had an uncle pass away. All vendors except for Heather were so kind to fully refund my deposits due to the situation. Unfortunately, Heather responded that she was still a businesswoman and was financially hurting, so she was in no place to offer a full refund. I basically paid Heather almost $500 to establish a simple contract. I already had all the vendors in place and organized, so this deposit was for nothing. Heather should not be held responsible for unexpected circumstances, but this wedding meant a lot to me. As a business owner, you should be able to compromise with your clients based on their situation. I could have easily used that deposit to help my family for the funeral. I find this situation absurd because I never wanted a wedding planner to begin with. Our wedding list was only 32 guests, but my fiancé insisted that we hire a planner because he did not want me to stress out. I admire him for caring, but this wedding was going to be a private and intimate event with very little management. I blame myself for hiring a wedding planner when I did not need one. It is unfortunate that Heather was thinking like a businesswoman and not a human being with empathy. Nonetheless, please make sure to ask about the refund policy for emergencies such as death, health, etc. Two stars are for her communication, but I can only evaluate Heather based on my experience with her before the wedding date. Therefore, I am unable to provide feedback for her day service since my wedding never happened. Has it ever occurred to you, Heather, that you had not heard from me in a year because I was busy dealing with other important things like planning a funeral? My wedding was the last thing on my mind. Also, I was not complaining about the charge that never happened, I am complaining about your response to your changes. There was no need to comment on that you are more expensive and won't be charging me. We could have proceeded forward with whatever it was we were doing. You contacted ONE venue and that is because they had YOU sign a contract with them. FYI, my pre-engagement photos were scheduled with the photographer I hired for my wedding and I was still refunded the full amount. This vendor did not work for free either and still managed to prioritize customer service over money. You are a business owner and have the liberty to do as you please, but you must have needed the money more than I did, so I hope my contributions helped your business. Nonetheless, well done on your communication. If you have a family member with a life-threatening illness or you have a medical condition that may require potential hospitalization, please do not hire Heather as your wedding planner as she will not refund you the deposit because not make exceptions for your situation simply because she does not "work for free." Thank you.

It's so important to relate to and connect with your wedding planner and from day 1 it felt like…read moreshe was my friend helping me plan my dream wedding. I found Heather through Yelp and let me say: she really understood my vision and kept it real with me on what i could and couldn't afford lol. Not to mention, I literally and honestly don't know how I could have enjoyed my wedding without Heather. Her and her assistant, Courtney, handled E V E R Y T H I N G on the day of our wedding at the Estate on Second and then some. If there was any sort of problem, she had the solution. If we needed a drink, she was there with mine and my husband's signature cocktails. If I was losing track of time, she made sure to gently push me along. She truly handled everything so that me and my husband could just have FUN and for that I am truly grateful.

I first contacted Jenny from JenEvents as a preferred vendor of my wedding venue at Coyote Hills…read moreGolf Course about 8 or 9 months before our date. She brought this warm energy and excitement to wedding planning that drew us to her. I was planning a western church wedding that still preserved elements of traditional Vietnamese culture so I really wanted a wedding planner who could anticipate those needs and felt that Jenny was our perfect fit! Our venue already provided catering and bar services so we elected to do the day-of-wedding planning package. We were planning from NorCal which made it challenging in many ways. Jen had several check in's with us over the months and was extremely responsive via e-mail when we requested assistance, such as needed recommendations for late night snacks. She knew all the best vendors in the area so we felt reassured with our vendor line up with her green light. We were also grateful that she was flexible with our tight schedules when we drove down to SoCal. I was a cricut bride and I had A LOT of DIY decor and activity ideas. Jenny was always encouraging yet realistic. She knew or would figure out how to best execute my vision and always had a back up plan which made me feel so secure about trusting her with creating our vision for our big day. For example, I really wanted to create a warm, rustic look over the dance floor with a ceiling of rattan pendant lights with greenery, which the venue had never done before. She really delivered on working with our venue and thinking thoroughly of all the details for execution! It turned out SO AMAZING, just perfect. We received SO many compliments on the decor from our guests! We couldn't be more grateful to Jenny and her team for carefully making every detail look perfect. Jenny was very thoughtful about details of the wedding that we would have never personally considered and asked clarifying questions to intently understand what we wanted. Her communication was responsive and clear, and it was just an absolute joy working with her. We HIGHLY recommend her for your wedding planning needs!

Sweet Emilia Jane is amazing!…read more Even though I had only 3 months to plan my wedding from Austin, I thought I could do it all myself. Well, I should have looped in Emilia from the beginning! Luckily I came to my senses and hired Emilia for her month of planning services. She quickly organized everything, helped me decide on vendors, and even designed and made all my flowers (silly me thought I could do it myself). Her flowers were seriously amazing! She helped me with my budget, design choices, schedule and most importantly she made sure that I didn't stress out. With Emilia and her team, my husband and I were able to enjoy our day and not have to worry about anything. Emilia is super cool, organized, creative and she really knows her stuff. Her vendor and design recommendations were excellent. Hire her!

Emilia is AMAZING!…read more We hired her as our day-of coordinator and I can honestly say that the wedding wouldn't have been the same without her!

We were able to fully enjoy not just our special day but the whole month leading up to it because Emilia was there making sure everything was going perfectly as planned! We are just SO grateful we found her!

Lynnie and Lora made our wedding a dream come true!…read more My husband and I hired them for day-of wedding coordination and I'm so thankful we did. Button Events offers much more than just day-of - they met us for a walk-through at the vendor, were in regular contact with us about scheduling and the timeline, and gave us a number of great vendors to work with. They were responsive to all our millions of questions and emails and helped us put together the wedding we wanted (which ended up being rather complicated!). On the day of, Lynnie and Lora were professional, well-organized and made sure our wedding went off without a hitch! We couldn't have managed it without them. I highly recommend Button Events if you're looking for someone who will make sure your wedding or event goes perfectly!

The problem is when it came down to my own wedding, who was going to be MY rock. In steps Lynnie, which was a last minute decision. Was I ever glad that I made that decision. We were already working with her partner, Lo (see my review for LoMotion) for our wedding choreography. We were sad to find out that Lo was already booked for another event. That was my fault, I waited until 6 weeks before the wedding. Lynnie stepped up to the plate, help me organize and remind me of things that I needed to do. Trust me, no matter how organized and together you think you are for a wedding, your brain will become zombie mush. I was grateful for all the thoughtfulness she puts into her job. And the day of the wedding, she was amazing. She was there but very stealthy and at the ready. She was always anticipating the next step and kept an eye out for me. She was more awesome than JLo in "The Wedding Planner" with her kit of magic - she whipped my hair up in the reception bathroom in moments and created the perfect updo that stayed the rest of the evening. She even greeted me with blotting paper, knowing that I was about to get hit up our own paparazzi. Just to put it all in one sentence - she made our evening stress free and magical. Whether you are looking for a wedding coordinator or planning a impressive shin-dig; Button Events is a must!

My husband and I were not planning on hiring a wedding planner due to our budget, but because our…read morevenue required day of coordinator, we started looking for one. I chose to go with Eight and Rose because the pricing was fair compared to other companies and it was within our budget. We're so glad that we did because Lisa was AMAZING! She's sweet, professional, detail oriented, and so easy to work with. She went above and beyond what I thought a day-of-coordinator would be doing for us. She was a tremendous help with every single part of our wedding. Everything from dealing with the vendors and managing the timeline to helping decorating our centerpiece and wedding cake. She even took photos of us, which was so nice of her to take the time to do! At the end of the night, we had minimal cleaning because Lisa did most of it for us. I don't know what I would have done without her! Even our guests were praising her to me on how great of a job she was doing! Our wedding was seamless thanks to Lisa! Thank you so much Lisa! Hire Eight & Rose as your wedding coordinator! You will not regret it!

If you don't read my long review below, just stop what you're doing and hire Lisa Wu of Eight &…read moreRose right away! Her services were above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. She was so professional and responsive whether it was texting, calling, or email. I live in NYC and was planning a Southern California wedding. She was always available to meet whenever I'd fly into LA, even at the earliest hours of the morning. I initially sought out Lisa because of her fair pricing, but I'd easily pay double for the coordination she provided. From the minute we had an initial phone call, I could tell she was Type A, which is exactly what you need in a coordinator. My gut told me she was perfect for our wedding, and indeed she was! Wedding Lead Up: We had one initial face to face with Lisa where she got to know our needs and our vision. She provided us with super helpful google docs to keep track of decor, guest list, timeline, vendors, etc. As the months of planning progressed, she was CCd on every email with every vendor, and would follow up where necessary. As a type A person myself, I never thought I'd really need my coordinator to do much, but Lisa would always beat me to the punch with following up for missing information or details our venue and vendors had missed. Walk-through: Lisa did a walk-through with us and our venue's coordinator, where she ironed out all of the details of the floor plan and decor, and remembered to ask for things like a full length mirror in our conference room we had to do hair/makeup. Rehearsal: Lisa was great about telling everyone where to go, how to walk properly, and taking pictures for us so we could rearrange people if we needed to. Our bridesmaid was running late but she was able to coordinate with Lisa to find where we were and make it on time. We felt very at ease and ready for the wedding after the rehearsal. Wedding!!!: Lisa and her assistant were wonderful with setting up all of our decor exactly how and where we wanted it, and believe me we had a lot of it! Lisa had the perfect balance of being invisible but also available right when we needed her. She was there to give me a bandaid when my feet blistered, help my grandma with her corsage, and track down random vendors when we needed them, but also stayed behind the scenes a lot. Everyone says a coordinator is there not for if something happens but when something happens. Well, we know of no such happenings because any mishaps were handled 100% by Lisa as we were enjoying ourselves. She had a great balance of keeping us on schedule while still asking if we wanted 5 or 10 more minutes of mingling with friends. At the end of the night she packed up all of our gifts and decor for us, and we didn't have to worry about a thing. The day after our wedding she even sent us tons of pictures and boomerangs she had taken of behind the scenes moments. These are so special to us, and we'll savor them as we wait patiently for our professional photos. Can't recommend Eight & Rose enough!
