The situation: I live in a studio apartment with minimal built-in storage space (1 drawer,…read morecomically high cabinets - I'm 5'1", 1 closet), and I am clueless about design and making things look nice. As a result, I had piles of things everywhere. Containers and cooking implements would topple over and onto my head constantly. Drawers were overflowing with clothes. This was not a cute look. The task: Create storage solutions that look nice and allow me to cook frequently with ease and live comfortably--maybe even entertain occasionally!--within this 400 square foot home. Enter Amy: Miracle worker! Amy has always been able to translate my incoherent ideas and goals into beautiful, streamlined solutions. She is attentive and asks all the right questions to ensure that what we're implementing fits my lifestyle and quirks. When I whine that I have no idea how to organize the door of my fridge and could she please come help me, she does so without complaint or judgment. [insert heart emoji - Yelp wouldn't let me add it] The result: I now have a beautifully minimalist, airy small home that feels plenty spacious and peaceful to me. I can cook with ease; everything is within reach and tidy. In addition, Amy helped me select some design elements that make the space look pretty, cozy, and lived in. AND! With a few spare minutes after one session, she even helped me organize my gmail, which had been causing me dread and overwhelm. Now my inbox is tidy and actionable! I feel like a grown-up. 10/10 would recommend. Amy is talented, professional, and well worth the investment. The services she provides are priceless and have improved my life, productivity, and emotional wellbeing immeasurably. Thank you, Amy!

We hired Amy to unpack and organize our kitchen the day after we moved. We talked beforehand about…read moreour kitchen habits such as which small appliances we use most and least frequently, or how I use certain food items (baking vs everyday use). My husband was home to unpack other rooms and would answer some of her questions, but she would text throughout the day to get my input on things as well. She created a very functional coffee station; an easy-to-use spice cabinet separating the sweet spices, savory spices, and spice mixes; and got a little turntable to put next to the stove with the four items we use the most while cooking. My favorite part about working with Amy is how she did a walk-through when she was done and explained her thought process so that we can stay organized on our own. This is the first time in my life I haven't dreaded unloading the dishwasher or unpacking groceries. I actually enjoy cleaning up the kitchen almost as much as cooking in it.

I couldn't have done it without Macy and all of her support! Macy was a pleasure to work with from…read morethe beginning, and it was clear how dedicated and passionate she is about her craft. The entire process leading up to the event felt seamless, and on the day itself, we felt completely at ease knowing we were in such capable hands. She was even able to help me when I noticed a huge stain on my dress. Macy cleared it up right away and was very calm and reassuring throughout the entire process. Having Macy there made a huge difference, and we're so grateful she was a part of our celebration. Macy's professionalism, creativity, and warmth helped create an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. Anyone who works with Macy will be in excellent hands. Thank you again for everything. I would absolutely recommend Macy to family and friends for future events and wish her and her team all the best in their future endeavors!

I appreciated her help with our move after 13 years in one home.  It amazed me how much stuff had accumulated. Dina was so helpful in a kind way to keep me moving and deciding.

Tiffany B. is without question, the best event planner in the country. Our convening was a…read moremasterpiece of detail, care, and intentionality -- every moment reflected her brilliance. Her patience, responsiveness, and encouragement meant the world. She made attendees feel seen and taken care of, all while managing a million moving parts with calm precision.

Her company brings so much warmth, mastery, and grace.

I want to share a few stories from my wedding that illustrate just how incredible of a wedding…read moreplanner Tiffany is! Back in July 2019, I interviewed 10 wedding planners. I sent out a survey with questions that I asked everyone to answer via Google surveys (for some reason!). Tiffany was the only planner who filled out the survey. This is to say that she is the one who understood that this was something that was important to me, so she made it important to her too. This is the quality of Tiffany's that set her above everyone else; from the very first time we met, she worked to make my priorities her priorities. The sound system wasn't working correctly at the beginning of our ceremony, which was such bad luck- we overheard our DJ successfully test the equipment while we were getting our photos taken. It resulted in about a 10 min delay before the ceremony started- in that time interval, Tiffany got warm cider for my mom and my (now) husband's mom, while simultaneously corralling the bridal party to keep them organized and ensuring the momentum of the event didn't get lost in the delay. Everyone cheered when the mic started working again, which diffused all of the anticipatory pre-ceremony tension. Our moms talked (and are still talking!) a lot about the warm cider Tiffany got for them. When faced with the inevitable hiccups that happen during weddings, I promise you that you will want Tiffany there to deal with them. You will not be in a state to deal with it yourself, and knowing that Tiffany, someone with the knowledge, experience, professionalism and temperament to handle it, will absolutely make your day. No matter how big-hearted and generous your family is, it is difficult to get people to do the parts of the wedding that are actually work, like, for example, making the place cards that have the guest's name with their table numbers on them. It's also a big favor to ask of relatives, and it is such a relief to know that you have someone in your corner who you can really count on to get this stuff organized and done. For example, when the aforementioned place cards at my wedding didn't get done beforehand, a detail that was brought to our attention several hours before guests started arriving, Tiffany got all 120 place cards printed that day. Truly incredible, I wish our federal government was like 1/4th as effective as her, we would definitely all be cruising with free health care by now. Tiffany is the wedding industry's equivalent of Olivia Pope. When I asked my husband what wedding advice we would give to other couples, it would be to hire Tiffany!! It was the best decision we could have made. We are so happy with how everything turned out- we were guests at our own wedding!! We just got to enjoy the day, which is exactly what we wanted to do. I never expected a perfect wedding but that's what I got because Tiffany was there to handle it! We love her!

Save yourself a lot of time and search no further. Vanna was perfect as our wedding planner. Each…read morestep along the way, she listened to our vision and put things together the way we hoped. Throughout, she was all business. She was dependably responsive when we had a question or concern. She systemically got things done on time. She communicated well with the other vendors involved. On the wedding day itself, she did a wonderful job to seamlessly make sure a tight schedule stayed on time. She interfaced with the caterer, handled audio/visual for our reception program, and the whole time made sure we and our guests enjoyed ourselves. Beforehand, she did a beautiful job of creating floral arrangements and decorating our ceremony and reception venues. And she moved around her schedule to meet us before our rehearsal so that we could do a run-through at the reception venue too. We could go on and on. In short, Vanna is all you need--and you won't be disappointed!

One of the best surprises I've ever had. Will definitely hire them to help us plan future events.

Sandra is amazing to work with. I clicked with her the moment I met her. I had been planning my…read moredaughter's Bat Mitzvah for 2 years, but needed guidance and hand holding for the remainder of the planning process and the day of the event. Sandra gave me just that. She's honest, creative, very organized and realistic - which are all the things I needed in a planner. Most of all, she calmed any anxieties I had in regards to planning and hosting a party. The day of the Mitzvah, she worked with all the vendors tirelessly to make sure the room was perfect and everything was ready to go. The room looked amazing. Once we arrived, she made sure we were happy and content and didn't worry about a thing. She took care of everything so we could just focus on having fun all night. My whole family absolutely loves Sandra. She is a great planner and a great person. I would recommend her services to anybody that is looking for a planner. You would be crazy to use anybody else.

Oh my goodness, Andrea was incredible!! We hired her as a partial planner and she surpassed our…read moreexpectations and then some. We realized around 7 months out that while we had booked some of the major things, we were overwhelmed and in over our heads, and she really saved the day and made it all possible - planning a wedding is a lot y'all!! Especially from out of state, whew! She helped us with finding quality vendors, keeping us on track/organized through her super helpful portal (which had sections for design planning, vendor contacts, budget, seating charts, to-do list, advice, etc), with a number of scheduled video calls and by checking in via email. We used zola for our website but I regret not going with her option to build a website for us because zola had a lot of frustrating limitations (couldn't even add links or bold things where we needed to). She had a helpful assistant through the prep process and an amazing, kind wedding day team who helped assemble my dream design elements. I'm a designer and made mockups of how I wanted things to look and uploaded pictures to the portal design studio, and they followed my vision so well!! And they even made one part look more tasteful than I had planned - loved it! Maybe more importantly, Andrea and her team basically made everything run smoothly, including packing up all the stuff we gave them to set out at the end of the night and dropping it off at my husband's dad's house since our venue was strict and needed everything out ASAP. What a relief to just show up to the wedding day (and leave) knowing all of those little details were being set up and taken care of - it was awesome! On the day-of, Andrea and her team were connected with the vendors with headsets, making everything run smoothly and communicating with the DJ about who was coming down the aisle for the songs to line up. She also helped us and the rest of the staff adjust and pivot after our ceremony went way overtime (we should've known, our rabbi loves the poetic details, which was beautiful in the moment, and my husband & I probably should've planned for more time knowing that lol). She helped us calm down after realizing how behind we were because she stayed so calm and collected, and calmly walked us through deciding what to shift for the rest of our timeline (we packed a lot of rituals in there). She also swooped in to help when I was having trouble with my makeshift dress bustle (she had worked at a bridal shop in the past - so amazingly helpful!) Andrea is so kind, calm, organized, approachable, and just nice to work with. She talked me through a few anxieties when I was overthinking things and in general, she was super patient with our moments of indecision and neurosis lol. I'm going to miss our rapport and check-ins, it was so nice knowing she had our backs throughout this whole process. Wedding planning is an overwhelming process, so having someone there for us like she was was a total game changer. I wish I knew more people in the area to recommend her - if you're on the fence, definitely hire her! She's amazing and you won't regret it!! (Waiting for our official photos but sharing a few of what we have for now)

From the beginning Andrea was professional, organized and full of ideas! She asked us what our must have wedding details were and found a way to make sure that we had them in the wedding. I appreciated all of the vendor recommendations she provided. They fit in perfectly with the style and tone of the wedding. She was there every step of the way and alleviated all of the wedding planning stress that she could. Andrea had a solution for everything that came up through the process. Even down to the end, like not having a cake stand for 2 of the cakes a day before the wedding. She came up with a substitute that was beautiful, matched the decor and no one was the wiser. The day of the wedding she was there with her team and the magic happened!! It was a beautifully arranged room and better than I imagined. The days events went along smoothly. But, it was Andrea and her team working hard behind the scenes to ensure that all we had to do was enjoy ourselves! And, everyone enjoyed themselves. The best decision I made other than my husband was hiring Andrea as my wedding planner.
