    My husband and I worked with Joyfully Gathered for our recent wedding and couldn't have been happier with the experience. Danielle and Hannah were wonderful to work with throughout the planning process --- able to keep all stakeholders in check, design-oriented, methodically organized in dealings with vendors, and just holistically calming to us in the frenetic lead-up to our event. The ultimate wedding was really a dream evening for us -- true to us a couple, visually stunning, impeccably executed from head to toe. This could not have been possible without JG. We highly recommend Joyfully Gathered for anyone planning a wedding in Northern California. Thank you Danielle and Hannah!

    Danielle and Hannah are truly the best!! When I was interviewing potential planners they had an energy about them that the others didn't. As an out of state bride it was important to me to hire someone locally that could help attend to things in my absence since I often was on Google meetings for the planning process. Even with the geographic differences the process was seamless. The space transformation that occurred at Mission Ranch because of Hannah and Danielle was INSANE and I couldn't have done it without them. On wedding day I had no stress aside from pregame jitters because of Danielle and Hannah!

    Hannah and Danielle were everything I could have ever wanted in wedding coordinators and more. They were so kind and helpful, incredibly responsive, and most importantly - they made me feel so calm and assured that everything would go well. We had a curve ball thrown at us about a month before the wedding and I started to panic, but Danielle and Hannah had such an awesome presence that I was able to let go and let them handle it - and they did without a hitch. We used their month-of package and I wish I'd had them on for my entire planning process because they were simply the best. A breath of fresh air for a very tired, stressed out bride getting married in a global pandemic. Thank you Hannah and Danielle!

    Hannah & Danielle are truly the DREAM TEAM. Our wedding day *could* have been a disaster. The morning of we were dealing with a major heat wave, fires, lightening/thunder/rain, power outage ALL while being in the middle of a global pandemic. Hannah and Danielle remained cool, calm and collected throughout it all and in turn, made me feel at ease. The day went off flawlessly and I instantly forgot about the craziness of that morning as soon as I showed up to our venue. Every detail I envisioned for my wedding was perfectly executed and coordinated. Hannah and Danielle were not only rockstars on the day-of but throughout it all. They were so transparent throughout the entire planning process and communicated so clearly and effectively. I was always kept in the loop and was instantly updated with any new changes or questions. When it came down to the final few weeks, I truly had full confidence in these two and it made my wedding stress-free and so enjoyable. Hannah and Danielle are not only such talented, detail-oriented, and creative wedding planners but also just wonderful, wonderful women. I feel so fortunate these two came so highly recommended. I couldn't have asked for a better team! THANK YOU both! I truly had the most perfect day!!

    Hannah and Danielle, the duo behind Joyfully Gathered, were the reason why our wedding was pure perfection. Not only did they have to deal with Covid-19 postponing our wedding 3 different times, they did it with outmost professionalism and a positive attitude. They handled all the design and communication with all the other vendors while keeping me informed the entire time. Their vision is modern and refreshing, yet classy and timeless. During the actual wedding date, all I had to do was relax and focus on enjoying the special day. I barely noticed them in the background making sure everything went smoothly. So if you are on a fence on whether you need to hire Joyfully Gathered for your upcoming wedding, the answer is YES...you absolutely need them. They are worth every penny! (Photo cred: Lauren Fair)

    What an amazing team! We hired Hannah and Danielle for the 3 month wedding coordination package and I can't recommend them enough! Planning a wedding during 2020-21 could have been a disaster if we didn't have their calming and reassuring personalities on board! These two helped us plan our California dream wedding and served as boots-on-the-ground while we were living on the east coast. From our first phone call, to our in-person details meetings, to the day of the wedding, we were never worried that they would miss a single detail. I am admittedly a type A personality and if there is one take-away that I am most grateful for, it is that I was not worried about any details or specifics on the day-of. Everything was styled and planned to perfection and if there were any hiccups, I was never aware of them. This helped me relax and truly soak in every moment. If you are searching for a dynamic duo who will thoughtfully create a day that mirrors your aesthetic, personalities, traditions, and your relationship, Hannah & Danielle are your gals!

    It's really hard to put into words how grateful we are for Hannah & Danielle. They made our day absolutely perfect by taking our vision and making it reality. From start to finish, they were supportive, kind, and professional. They made us feel so confident that they day would go smoothly. This helped alleviate so much stress and anxiety. They were able to successfully handle any issue that came up along the way. They both have outstanding taste and help you make decisions based on what they've seen work well in the past. Most of our amazing vendors were recommendations from them. On a personal level, Hannah and Danielle are such thoughtful and nice people. They are definitely the women you want on your team. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of working with Danielle and Hannah. I highly recommend Joyfully Gathered for your big day.

    Hannah and Danielle are a wonderful pair of wedding planners! They were recommended to us early on, and were such a delight to work with. We utilized the day of coordination package, which really meant month of plus whenever we had questions or concerns along the way of engagement. They made sure the rehearsal went smoothly and ran through enough times to let everyone feel secure in the plan. They had another wedding that day so Danielle and Hannah split up, and Hannah and her assistant (the cutest mom and daughter pair) worked their butts off on our wedding day to make sure everything was perfect. AND IT WAS! Truly such a spectacular day, and they went above and beyond to make it happen. My husband and I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Joyfully Gathered for the best day ever!: Mile:

    Hannah and Danielle were an absolute JOY to work with (see what I did there hehe)!!! We opted for their partial package, but used tons of their pre made resources and their checklists all the way up until the three month mark. Everything was SO helpful!! They were extremely efficient, trustworthy, and reliable. They were quick to respond to emails and questions (I had a lot- sorry!!), and helped with so many little details I didn't feel capable of tackling. The idea of creating a floor plan for the tables and DJs and knowing where outlets are so everything could function... no thank you!! But Hannah and Danielle made it look like a breeze. They also executed the day flawlessly!! I am sure things went wrong, but I still don't know about anything, and that in itself is the biggest gift- we had THE BEST day! Book em :)

With every wedding there will always be some type of issue that arrives and with the bumps we faced, it was as if SLE worked magic and made everything better. Leading up to the wedding, Lindsay was so thorough and detailed and made sure to cover everything I did not know even needed to be covered - from placing our custome table numbers (also giving advice on what to use in case of strong winds), lighting our candles, tying the rose petal cones to the chairs, and tons of reception layout drafts. She asked many questions to make sure she understood what we were envisioning and had the most detailed notes I had ever seen! At the same time, she continued answering my 1000000 questions with lots of reassurance that everything will be more than OKAY. Even when we got scammed by a vendor, she was so empathetic and assisted us in what actions to take and other vendors we can look into! You can tell Lindsay is so passionate about her job and it shows with how loving and understanding she is towards the bride and groom, everyone that was a part of the wedding as well as our guests! Even my guests called out how organized and perfect everything looked - it was as if nothing at all went wrong. Lastly, I was also one of the brides who wasn't as organized towards the end of the process and started to be indecisive.. Lindsay was a hero and all my last minute wants/changes and requests were all answered and executed with excellence. So if you are looking for a dream team to coordinate your wedding and give you so much love, support , guidance and patience.. Work with Simply lovely events. You will not regret it at all!

My mom hired this event planner for a very important family event, and unfortunately, it was one of the most stressful experiences we've had. Communication was poor throughout the planning process, and she arrived late on the day of the event. There were multiple items that my mom paid for that were either missing or incomplete. The floral arrangements were insufficient, and several agreed upon decorations and details were never provided. The communication was great until the payment was sent and then we hardly heard from her. The biggest issue was the pizza catering. My mom paid over $1,000 for a catered pizza service, but during the party the event planner called at 6pm to say the pizza man was not coming. As of today, despite multiple attempts to resolve the matter, no refund has been received. We tried to handle this privately before leaving a review, but unfortunately we have been unable to resolve the situation and are now pursuing the matter through Small Claims Court.

From the beginning Amanda thought of every last detail, giving us vendor recommendations, amazing design ideas and much more. Knowing the extra expenses associated with any DIY/at home wedding, Amanda always kept our budget top of mind. She was incredibly considerate to our financial needs while also giving us the day we had always imagined. Even after the wedding, Amanda noted every discrepancy and misplaced piece from the rental company and asked for a refund, which they granted! This shows how much Amanda cares about her couples and how far she goes to make sure every last detail is accounted for. Amanda was always available and incredibly responsive despite her busy schedule. I always felt like a priority and she would always call and e-mail me with updates and ideas. She made the experience for my husband and I so enjoyable, as we knew we could trust her with anything. She came to the house multiple times to meet our various vendors and to ensure she was in the loop on every last detail. Amanda is incredibly professional and on our wedding day she was so calm and made me feel completely at ease. I knew that if anything was to go wrong, it would be handled. This is what you want in your wedding coordinator. Amanda provided a night for us and our families that we will never forget. Everything went so smoothly and everything looked amazing. She was so accommodating throughout the entire evening. At the end of the night she even packed a bag of our favorite wines and boxed up leftover food for us to take back to the hotel.

We are incredibly grateful for all she did for us and highly recommend her for your wedding or event. Trust us, she will be the best decision you make! Thank you Amanda for giving us the wedding of our dreams!
