I am not a creative or crafty person, so when I became engaged, I was excited to be able to have a…read morewedding, but I wasn't excited about planning it or making decisions regarding it. I have zero interest in center pieces, decorations, timelines, flowers. I just wanted it to "look pretty" and for people to have a nice time. Thank goodness for Monica, the owner of Confetti and Glitter Events! I originally found Monica on Thumbtack, and liked how prompt she was in responding to my inquiry. She is also very affordable and reasonable in the pricing of her services. I initially hired her as my venue decorator, but then asked her to also be my Day of Coordinator. (these are 2 different things, so don't hire someone asking them to decorate, but then expecting them to handle your entire day and your entire ceremony and reception). She was flexible with her schedule when it came to meeting, and was prompt in her replies to emails and texts. Monica was very good about writing down the things I liked and didn't like, and was great about expanding on those things to find something that worked for me. She made all of my venue signs, set up and decorated the dessert table and guest table, all centerpieces and my sweetheart table. I didn't have to worry about a thing the entire day and night of my wedding, because I new Monica had everything covered. I was able to have a great time and focus on my guests, and she would guide me along if I needed to do something. I would recommend Monica for any party or event that you need planned. My husband and I were both very happy with her services, and will hire her again if we have anything that needs planning. She is very easy to talk to, and a sweet and professional woman. My photographer hasn't sent me my wedding photos yet, but when he does, I will post the work that she did :)

SD Event Decor did an amazing job transforming the Admiral Kidd Club's outdoor venue and indoor…read morereception room into something more upscale for our wedding in October 2012. Every vision I had, Shirley & David made into a reality! Be advised, if you want similar results, it isn't cheap and it takes time so if you are a frugal bride (not a bad thing) and or short on time I don't recommend working with them. If you are like me, and have a horribly decorated venue that needed lots of help and don't mind paying for it then this is your company! They were very professional and worked directly with the venue manager even though they (Admiral Kidd staff) were very difficult to deal with. **Take away** You must be a patient bride and groom and be willing to let them be artists to get the best results as it is just the two, David & Shirley, of them running the business. Need to improve: Communications e.g. timely responses even if it is "I'm working on it, I will get back to you" Nerves catch brides and grooms out when we get close to the wedding so as much communication as possible is key to keeping them happy!

I want to throw more parties! You should be realistic when choosing someone to provide the decor for your event, whether it be a wedding or birthday or whatever...it's not going to be cheap! Does that mean they can't work with a budget, no, but don't be surprised when the vision you have for your event isn't aligned to the right budget.

Hands down the best investment we made in our wedding planning process. With Kaye and Leilani on…read moreboard, we were stress free and felt so taken care of. Thankfully we were smart enough to hire the team for the month of coordination and the moment they took the reins from us, we knew we were in good hands. The documents they provided to help with the planning process were organized and easy to understand. Kaye and Leilani were such a great resource for any and all wedding questions and were very quick to respond. Coming from out of town, my fiancé (now husband) was looking for a good barber to get his hair wedding ready and Kaye came through with an amazing recommendation. In fact, all of their recommended vendors are businesses we'd return to or recommend! Thank you Kaye, Leilani, and your team for your organization, coordination, and constant positivity for our wedding day! We definitely couldn't have done it without you!

She is so very gracious and calming, and not only coordinated our wedding but worked with my dad to help coordinate other events around the wedding.

Throughout the process she…read morealways had great advice and was able to guide us through an event that our family and friends raved about. It's clear that she has the experience and knowledge but the biggest reason why we recommend her, and would hire her again, is her willingness to go above and beyond what her defined duties are to make sure that your event is a success. And, with a demeanor that is unflappable. We had several issues with our venue that could have completely derailed the evening. We found out about this afterwards because Sheryl was able to work with the caterer and venue manager to make sure that our guests were unaware of the problem. We understand that this is her job but it felt like she genuinely cared about us and our family. We highly recommend Sheryl Denker Events + Design!

I always enjoy working with Concepts Event Design! I have worked in the hospitality/event planning…read moreindustry for over ten years, and Concepts is my go-to rental company for events. When it was time to plan my own wedding there was no competition. Even when I shopped around initially out of curiosity, Concepts pulled through with best price, best inventory and best customer service. They are so accommodating and responsive with every request. I know that when I put in a call or email to their team, I will get the change adjusted and confirmed by the next day, if not sooner in a few hours. Their response time is fantastic and made life so much easier when planning a wedding! With so many items to keep track of during the planning process, I knew I could always count on Concepts. The entire team is very knowledgeable especially Cathy! She helped me walk through the planning of my wedding set up in person and made sure I felt confident in the design/diagram. I explained my vision and she gave me honest advice and guidance on how to make the event successful! Her expertise really helped, and put me at ease throughout the planning process. I felt confident in her staff and the team to deliver a great event set up! The day of our wedding, the lounge furniture I had rented looked fantastic! It exceeded my expectations and was a perfect fit for the location I had, and the amount of people I had in attendance. The on site staff was accommodating and set up on time! Big thank you to Concepts for all of your help in making our wedding day a success! Cheers!
