If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, or unsure who to choose, do it and hire Joyfully Gathered! Danielle and Hannah were absolutely incredible, and I truly don't know what we would have done without them. We worked primarily with Danielle throughout the planning process, and she was such a pleasure to work with. She kept us on track with our vendors, answered every question we had with thoughtful advice and valuable insight, and communicated with us every step of the way. She took the time to understand our vision and helped bring it to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. On our wedding day, both Danielle and Hannah were amazing. They were professional, organized, calm, and orchestrated every detail so seamlessly that I never had a single worry. I was able to be fully present and enjoy every moment because I trusted them completely to handle anything that came up. If there were any last-minute issues or crises, I remain blissfully unaware of them, which is exactly what you want from a planner! Our wedding was absolutely stunning, everything ran so smoothly, and the day truly could not have been more perfect. That is a testament to the incredible work Danielle and Hannah put into making our day special. We are beyond grateful to the Joyfully Gathered team and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Hannah and Danielle were an absolute pleasure to work with! From the start, they were so approachable and really took the time to understand our vision instead of steering us in a different direction. They were incredibly flexible, open to the vendors we liked, and gave great recommendations that made the whole planning process so much easier. Their attention to detail and experience really showed--they thought of everything and made sure all the little pieces came together perfectly. On our wedding day, we didn't have to worry about a thing because they had it all covered.

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! read more

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! read more

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! read more

I don't know if we will ever be able to put into words the amount of gratitude we feel for Hannah and Danielle. They were the first and only wedding planners we spoke to, since we knew immediately they were the right fit. They were experienced, hands on, creative, collaborative, communicative, and just all around exceptional. Not to mention just also two very wonderful cool humans that were a dream to be around! We had the pleasure of working with Hannah closely throughout this process, and can't believe how lucky we were. Throughout the process, all my married friends spoke about how much better our experience was than any of theirs and after the wedding everyone couldn't stop raving about how seamless and organized and easy everything was from the guest's experience. Hannah dealt with every step and every aspect of the day with calm, grace, patience, proactiveness, and fun. We love her and Danielle so much!!! read more

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.

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! read more

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. read more

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: read more

Hannah and Danielle were so amazing! We chose the 3-month/partial planning package, and they were so helpful and attentive to us even as we had questions about planning a year out from the wedding date. And when we got to 3 months away from the wedding date, they completely took over all of our wedding-related responsibilities and vendor management. We really don't know how we could have done this without them, and we have no reservations about recommending them as wedding planners! read more

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 :) read more

I can't say enough amazing things about Hannah and Danielle! We reached out to them one year before our wedding and they helped us with everything single detail. From picking out the venue to what napkins to rent. They went above and beyond and we are so grateful for them. Throughout the entire planning process, Hannah and Danielle kept us on track with checklists and quarterly calls. On the day of the wedding, Hannah and Danielle were truly saints. Everything went off without a hitch and it was a true delight having them around on our big day. Not only did they crush the entire event, they were such a calming, fun presence. I can't recommend using Joyfully Gathered for your next event enough!! read more

We were very impressed with the services Danielle and Hannah performed for our wedding. Joyfully Gathered helped with budget management, Custom Design boards, review of contracts, vendor communication, timeline creation, all wedding related meetings and layout creation. They were able to anticipate what we wanted and make it a reality. My husband and I were appreciative of the way Danielle and Hannah listened to our desires and incorporated both of our visions into a seamless design. I knew what I wanted the day to feel like but I couldn't put it into words or pictures, but Danielle"s custom design boards and layout anticipated exactly what I wanted. I never had to worry about any single detail and on the day of the wedding I simply focused on the magical moments. Our big day was smooth and flawless and we attribute it all to Joyfully Gathered. They were timely, helpful, patient, promptly responsive and very professional. We will be forever thankful to Joyfully Gathered for a miraculous day. read more

Look no further, your perfect wedding planners are right here!! Hannah and Danielle are amazing. They just did my wedding and everything went flawlessly because of them! We used their full service and they helped with everything from design consultation, all vendor coordination and day of execution. They went with us and sometimes on behalf of me (when I had to work and couldn't make it myself) to look at table design items, rental furniture and flowers. On the day of they made sure me, my family and our guests were taken care of!! They helped make sure everything ran smoothly, those with food allergies got the correct food, reminding me to eat, and most importantly coordinating the event set up with all of the vendors so that my mom and I could enjoy the day care free! They were beyond amazing and I will be recommending them to anyone I know getting married! I cannot thank them enough! If you want to have the perfect wedding day and have everything go smoothly while all you just enjoy the day, then you need Joyfully Gathered!!!!! read more

What is there to say about Danielle and Hannah that already has not been said. They were integral throughout the wedding process, from working through hiccups with our venue to giving Chief (our dog) a little honey when he was about to pass out from the excitement of the big day. They went above and beyond throughout our entire planning process, and made us feel like we were their number one priority. Their organization and vendor management gave us the ability to completely be present during our special day and we cannot thank your enough. Our wedding was more amazing than we could have ever imagined and we are glad we had both of you for support. P.S. We miss our weekly chats! read more

Danielle and Hannah were truly the DREAM TEAM! After having to postpone my wedding due to COVID, my whole vision changed and they helped me create the most beautiful wedding I could have possibly imagined. They made the whole process less stressful from the design boards, coordinating vendors and setting up all the day of items. They were professional, kind, patient and ultimately your number one supporter and cheerleader throughout the whole process! If you're at all on the fence about getting wedding planners... let me tell you, just do it! You will not regret it for one second! My family and friends loved them so much, they want to hire them for all future family weddings :) read more

Hannah and Danielle are the BEST wedding coordinators you could imagine! They're experienced, super organized, easy to get along with, and know the wedding industry so well.

If you want a stress-free, unforgettable wedding experience, you have to hire Joyfully Gathered!! read more

Danielle and Hannah are the BEST. If you're looking for planners who go above and beyond to try and bring your vision to life, look no further. From our initial meeting to the day of (and even after!), they were very intentional to understand what mattered to us and paid attention to the details. I'm a pretty type A planner myself so finding a team who we could trust was definitely an amazing blessing. They took care of all the details leading up to the wedding and even brought ideas to the table that we didn't think of but added either a personal touch or made logistics easier. Even after our wedding, our vendors raved about how amazing of duo Danielle and Hannah are - a true testament of how much they care! It's been a year since our special day but Joyfully Gathered still stays in touch. Amazingly thoughtful team that definitely in the industry because they love doing what they do - and they're great at it! read more

Simply put, Danielle and Hannah were amazing. They were incredibly easy to work with, so very kind, and made our day perfect. They were with us from the very start and helped make each detail special. We couldn't imagine our wedding them! read more

I can't say enough great things about Danielle and Hannah! They were absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. Wedding planning isn't something that came naturally to me, so planning a 200 person wedding seemed daunting. They were extremely organized, professional and always kept me on track. They took so much stress off my plate and felt like two close friends I could turn to for any questions I had. All the planning and details came together beautifully- it turned out to be the wedding of our dreams and I attribute most of that to them!! We truly couldn't have done it without them. read more

Danielle and Hannah are absolutely amazing! We couldn't have asked for a better team to make our day go perfectly! We changed our plans so many times due to covid this year, and Hannah and Danielle continued to pivot with us and were incredible to work with. We had a smaller wedding and I am SO glad I had them to walk us through everything leading up to the day, to the end of the reception. There are so many details and things I would have never thought of, and I am so glad I had them to make sure everything was perfect. They made the day stress free and we trusted them completely with everything! They handled everything from the ceremony music to making sure I reapplied lipstick and my dress wasn't full of sticks and twigs in photos. If you need a wedding coordinator, these two are the best there is! Thank you so much for going above and beyond for us. read more

We literally could not have imagined our wedding without Danielle and Hannah - and that's not an understatement. We got the partial planning package for 3 months out, and immediately from the first call, we felt so reassured that they had everything under control. They kept track of all the small details (including the ones we didn't even think of). From quick communication with all the vendors and with us, to being extremely organized, to having the best suggestions that fit our aesthetic and budget for the wedding, Danielle and Hannah made everything feel so much more doable. We found out last minute that our wedding day was going to be rainy, and they were able to coordinate a tent rental, redo our entire flow for this contingency plan, and communicate with all of our vendors within the week. That week in itself made their services worth it. Their positive attitude throughout the whole planning period was also the cherry on top of everything else. We highly recommend Joyfully Gathered for your wedding! read more

I own a calligraphy studio and had the pleasure of working with Hannah and Danielle to create some pieces for their client.

We can't wait to work with Joyfully Gathered again! read more

We had the toughest time planning a wedding on our own during COVID, and once we started to work with Joyfully Gathered, it made the process so much easier! I don't know how we would have pulled off our wedding without them! We did a backyard wedding, and they were so helpful with doing site visits, figuring out where everything would be set up, coordinating with our vendors, and so so much more! They were both very approachable with questions, super responsive, and very nice and welcoming people to work with. We would both highly recommend Joyfully Gathered! read more

I couldn't have imagined my wedding day and everything leading up to it, without Hannah and Danielle. These girls went ABOVE & beyond for me. They are the perfect balance of genuinely listening to your ideas, and providing useful suggestions when needed. They handled every single curve ball with grace, and were so patient and calming when I was struggling to make a decision or having a meltdown. When it comes to versatility, these ladies are invaluable. They make sure every detail is accounted for, seamless, and are there for you during the emotional ups and downs of wedding planning. I honestly can't thank them enough for everything they did for me. Your wedding day and all the planning that goes into it is such a precious, personal, and monumental time. You want wedding planners who understand the weight of that, make you feel loved, truly taken care of, and beyond special . These girls are exactly that. Thank you so much ladies!!!! read more

If I could give Hannah and Danielle 6 stars I would! My husband and I got married in Woodside July 2022 and we hired Hannah and Danielle for their partial planning/design services. Even though they were technically supposed to start helping us in January, they were truly there for me from day 1. As a very type A person, I appreciated that they were so quick to answer all of my detail-oriented questions. They went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding totally fit our vision. Our wedding venue does not have a lot of weddings so I know they were not super easy to work with but Hannah and Danielle absolutely crushed it. My husband and I were able to totally relax on our wedding day thanks to all of their help but they were also fully there for any questions that I had on the day of. I really can't recommend them enough! If you are on the fence about hiring a coordinator, don't think, just go ahead and hire Hannah and Danielle! read more

We could not be more thankful for Hannah and Danielle of Joyfully Gathered! They assisted in every way to make our daughters wedding absolutely perfect. I began the planning process by thinking we did not needed professional planners but quickly learned that their knowledge, creativity, organization and calmness were so needed. They assisted with the big things such as recommending venues and vendors, reviewed contracts, keeping our budget on track, preparing creative boards, assisting in colors, flowers, etc., and on the million little things we never would have thought of. The polite reminders were timely and so helpful. On the wedding day they were absolutely essential. Their organization and professionalism to know what was coming five steps ahead allowed our family and most importantly our daughter and her husband to truly enjoy the day. It could not have been a more perfect day and it really was because we had the expertise of Hannah and Danielle. We highly recommend Joyfully Gathered. You will not be disappointed! read more
