She came in for a preview appointment and shot out ideas left and right! I was pleasantly happy to see that as she was describing the decorating items she was well equipped with pricing ranges.

We did meet with other flower vendors but none compared to what Renee could provide us. She is super nice and helped us a great deal with planning out our flowers, since my husband and I aren't so knowledgeable about flower arrangements. I am such an indecisive person myself (as a bride, not good!) so she was a great help during the planning process. On the day of the wedding, she dropped off the bouquets at my hotel suite and I was amazed because they were so beautiful! My bridal bouquet was exactly how I pictured it, and the bridesmaids flowers were great! The altar flowers were beautiful as well. She didn't just cover all of the flowers for us either...she also provided the chair covers at our reception for a great price! We're so glad we booked Renee for our flower needs. We definitely recommend you look into her services for your wedding! Thanks so much Renee for being a part of our special day!

Well - I am a girl of my word. When my now husband proposed, one of the first phone calls I made was to Morgan at Spreading Lovely. Morgan is EXCEPTIONAL at what she does. From the moment I hired her, I already felt a sense of peace knowing that I had the best possible person in place to execute my wedding to perfection... Morgan and her team did exactly that. Morgan was hired for month of coordination services. From our first meeting it was clear that her primary goal was to make and keep me happy - I felt her genuine care and concern around every detail. She was so "locked in" at that meeting that it was clear NOTHING would slip through the cracks. Through the entire experience, it felt like I was working with an absolute pro and also a genuine friend. Morgan always had my interests and well-being in mind and knew exactly what to do in every scenario. Morgan went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my day was special, flawless and exactly what I was dreaming of. I am forever grateful to Morgan and her team. They gave me the greatest gift of all - the ability to LET GO. As an admitted control freak and professional wedding planner - handing over your day to someone else to run with is scary. Well... not with Morgan at the helm of the ship. When the day of the wedding came, the unthinkable happened - I did not worry about a single detail. If you knew me, you'd realize what an insane feat this is. This is the true testament of Morgan and her greatness. If you are looking for a wedding planner that is equal parts professional, bad ass and kind - look no further then Morgan Miller!

After interviewing a ton of other planners and partial planners that all seemed to blur together, talking to Morgan was like talking to a friend. She has a calm demeanor, but you can see she has a passion for what she does and excitement she brings to all of her clients. That passion was evident throughout the entire process and her calmness was such an asset when any issue or stress-point would come up. The entire process was a joy, which I know is not the case in wedding planning so often. Morgan was able to create a design brief from our all-over-the-board style to a cohesive look and feel for the wedding that was even more beautiful than I could have imagined, but still felt so us. She helped us find rentals for what we could rent and pointed us in the direction for the cheapest options to buy other items which was so helpful. The end result was not only stunning, but more importantly stress-free for us and our parents which was the most important thing we wanted out of a planner. Numerous guests, after-the-fact, commented how all of us just looked so happy and stress-free. Guests pick up on that, and they were totally right - we were able to completely enjoy ever minute of the wedding weekend. Both my husband and I cannot say enough good things about Morgan. Hire her today - you will not regret it!

Miriam was diligent and super reliable leading up to the event, and also easygoing and flexible throughout. I really appreciated how professional she was and how much effort she put into making things work for us.

She brought our vision to life and recommended vendors that were perfect for us. Creative, stylish and resourceful she struck the perfect balance of working with the natural beauty of our wine country venue to create a sophisticated and romantic afternoon and evening that our guests are still raving about. Her warmth and sense of humor make working with her fun as well. Cindy and Bella Note have earned my highest recommendation.

My…read morehusband and I approached Cindy very late in the game, with less than three and a half months until our wedding date, and we were planning an Oregon wedding from LA. She didn't flinch at the distance or compressed timeline, and immediately made us feel at ease. Cindy has an incredible vision and artistic eye. She didn't just take a space and throw flowers on it. She created a wedding environment, incorporating pieces I never would've thought of and truly transformed our venue into something gorgeous. And best of all, she did it all UNDER BUDGET. It was such an incredible feeling to be able to look at all of her fantastic ideas (which blew me away, by the way. She thought of so many cool things and neat little touches) and not have to worry if I could afford it, because I knew she was watching my bottom line. But I think what impressed me most about Cindy was how much she had my back, sometimes without me even realizing it. The first time I met her in person, we were at a florist and I was feeling overwhelmed by choices. I didn't realize it at the time, but Cindy was reading my facial expressions when I was presented with each item. She paid such close attention that she got a deep understanding of what I wanted, even when I wasn't able to express it. On the day of the wedding, Cindy had it all under control, which allowed me to be calm and enjoy each moment. She had such a natural way of keeping us moving from point to point without ever making us feel rushed or interrupted. When she wasn't helping us, she was behind the scenes, making it all perfect. It wasn't until watching videos later that I noticed her in the background of one, with towels drying off the dance floor area around the edge of the tent because it had started misting before our first dance. I never noticed a thing. I can't imagine my wedding without Cindy. She gave me my dream day, a day that far exceeded my expectations.

I really enjoyed working with her. She delivered as stated on her contract. I didn't have any problem with her services whatsoever. I appreciate her being patient dealing with staff members at the hall we rented. They were not as flexible with timing, but at the end all worked out well. Many of my guests walked into the hall and complimented how beautiful the placed was decorated. One even stated, 'It's very well balance. The colors are just right, not over the top but very nicely done!" Many loved how well the hall was setup. Had lots of compliments day of party. I will definitely work with Sonali again if ever needed. She did so well, one of my guest is talking to her about a party in November. Thanks for great work Sonali & staff. I would highly recommend this company for your event. She can really help give you ideas if you are not sure where to begin!

We were fortunate to have Caryl and team for our wedding. We wanted a intimate and refined wedding…read morethat reflected our tastes and personalities. However, we had a limited budget, very little time to oversee details, and no idea where to start on the endless list of tasks that make up a wedding. Enter Caryl, Amy and Nicole. They worked closely with us to narrow down our personal styles. They provided guidance on timing, budget and project plan. They helped us find fantastic vendors both big and small from the local letterpress printer who did our invites to the cutest "Provence within a few blocks of Sonoma Square" indoor / outdoor venue with amazing food and wine to the right linen rentals to a florist we didn't think we could afford to a DJ that our wedding guests are still raving about. And, when we ran into billing and contract issues, Caryl was the one we turned to to resolve them on our behalf. Without the ROAR team, we would not have found these vendors, and we would have a hard time juggling the various aspects of putting on a wedding. Caryl's true talents reside in her ability to conceptualize and style beautiful events. Caryl provided recommendations on where we should spend and save to get the most "visual bang for our buck" in terms of florals, linens and decor. The result was a warm, beautiful, intimate winery wedding that truly represented our personal styles and showcased Sonoma to our many out of town guests who had never been to California. Even now, months after our wedding, guests still tell us that they enjoyed our wedding tremendously with comments about the amazing food, observations that we had one of the prettiest wedding they've ever attended, to fun memories about how well the DJ could read and energize the crowd. My husband and I can't take credit for any of these things, as it's all due to great work of the ROAR team.

I've planned lots of events so I had a clear idea of what I wanted - I just needed someone to execute. Enter, Clara. Clara was extremely responsive and immediately ran with my idea of a lemon-themed birthday party. She came up with things I wouldn't have thought of myself (personalized stickers for the favor bags and personalized napkins) and did a great job bringing my vision to life. During the party she paid keen attention to everything, so I didn't have to. Instead of pouring drinks and checking on food, I spent my time with my friends and family - many of whom I hadn't seen since before my daughter was born. That quality time wouldn't have been possible without Clara's help, and I was grateful for it. Clara's the quintessential Parisian. She has great taste in wine, flowers (and will arrange them artfully at your event), and food. If you entrust her with your event, you'll be able to rest easy knowing every element will be executed flawlessly. On top of all that, she's very enjoyable to work with. I'd hire her again a heartbeat.

From the very beginning she was incredibly helpful and responsive. After meeting in person and seeing how completely overwhelmed I was, Clara offered so much guidance and support.

She was beyond organized and had EVERYTHING in place for the big day. On the day of the wedding she literally took care of everything which allowed us to fully enjoy ourselves and go with the flow. Clara was so creative and really helped bring my vision to life. She was incredibly patient with me when I was having trouble nailing down small details. And she was really fun to work with, while also being professional. I can honestly say that there is no way we could have pulled off our perfect wedding without her! Hiring Clara was by far the best wedding decision we made and I would recommend her 1000 times over!!
