Tons of the guests at our wedding said that they've never see a bride and groom have so much fun at…read moretheir own wedding and I think that's due to the fact that Stacy is one of the best in the biz. Throughout the planning process Stacy was incredible, but she was even better day of. As a groom it's pretty nerve racking to be standing there waiting to walk down the aisle, but having Stacy there with a warm smile saying everything was all set was really calming. I never had to worry about a thing and that's a huge relief on what can be an extremely stressful day. She kept us on time for everything and was also flexible with squeezing in extra time for photos cause she knew that was really important to us. In the middle of the evening I realized that I had left two cases of beer in the trunk of my car back at the hotel. I had spent weeks hunting this down and Stacy knew it meant a lot to me so she had one of her assistants drive back to the hotel, talk the front desk into getting access to my car so she could bring the beer back to the wedding. Pure awesomeness. We also had an unexpected medical emergency in the middle of the reception and Stacy handled it like the pro she is. The person actually ended up going to the hospital with some family and Stacy arranged for food to be sent over. Before choosing Stacy we talked to a few other planners, but as soon as we sat down with Stacy things just clicked and we knew had found the right planner.

I asked the wedding venue I chose if they had any Event Planners to recommend, and Stacey was first…read moreon their list. After speaking with her just once, I told my fiance' that I didn't need to speak with anyone else because she was "perfect." And now that our wedding has come and gone, I can say without question that she was indeed perfect. To back track a little bit... When I began, I wanted to find vendors that were not overly traditional, trite, or in any way "cheesy" - not always easy in the formulaic industry of wedded bliss. I've never been someone who dreamed of a fairytale princess wedding, I just wanted a very tasteful event that reflected who we were as a unique couple. Stacey definitely helped us achieve that. She has impeccable taste, and more importantly the knack for understanding who you are, what you want, and how to get there. She's extremely organized, busy yet calm, diplomatic... and totally delightful. (Truly, everyone who met her during our wedding weekend fell in love.) I had many ideas for what I wanted, but living in Los Angeles, it was going to be a leap of faith to coordinate with the vendors in northern California. Stacey, though, paired us up with the perfect people every time. (And if you're having an event outside the SF/Napa area, you can still use her: she's got her eye on everything fabulous in other cities as well). As a Producer & Director, I'm used to running the show. But having gotten to know Stacey, by the day of my wedding, I didn't worry for one second about vendors, timing, or a hundred possible mishaps. I just wasn't concerned because I had complete faith in her. It felt great to sit back, enjoy our guests, and take in the experience. If you have Stacey at the helm, you'll feel the same way. I've never met someone so well suited for their job - truly. Stacey has every single quality a person in this position needs. There are well known planners out there (trust me, I looked) who I can't imagine would hold a candle to her when all is said and done. And on top of that, she genuinely wants your wedding to be as wonderful as you do. I had to laugh when it was all over because, for someone who didn't want a "fairytale" wedding, that's exactly what I got. I used to snicker when people waxed that their wedding was the greatest day of their lives...and my husband and I would both now tell you with a straight face that's exactly what our wedding was. It was magic and I'm so glad Stacey was at the wheel. In summation, I love Stacey. I might give her a kidney if she asked.

From start to finish, she was incredibly detail-oriented and thoughtful, always coming to the table with smart suggestions that elevated the evening and made the guest experience so much more special. Communication with Janice was a dream--she is responsive, organized, and on top of every detail. All the vendors worked together seamlessly, which speaks volumes about both her planning skills and her professionalism. Janice is also extremely well-connected and has relationships with the most talented vendors--musicians, cake designers, calligraphers, florists, and more. She curated a team that worked beautifully together and truly brought the event to life. Above all, Janice is incredibly thoughtful--she thinks of everything and goes out of her way to help in any way possible. One of the things I also appreciated most was how budget-conscious Janice was--she focused on getting true value and never suggested spending money where it didn't make sense. That gave me a lot of confidence in every decision we made together. Thanks to her, we had an unforgettable celebration that felt effortless for us as hosts. If you are looking for someone who will treat your event as if it were her own, and who has the talent, connections, and dedication to deliver an extraordinary experience, Janice is the one. Rue 29 is simply exceptional! Thank you Janice and Rue 29 for an event to remember!

We…read moregot Rue 29's "Wedding Day Management Coordination Package" which included day-of coordination and up to 30 hours of work before the wedding day, but we got so much more value than that! Unlike other month-of coordinators who won't talk to you until a month before, Rue 29 made sure to set us up for success from the beginning. As soon as we signed our contract Janice shared her list of preferred vendors and introduced us to everyone we needed to know. She seems to know everyone in Napa! She was then so helpful with any questions we had while we were booking vendors and coordinating with them over the intervening months. By the time we got to a month out from the wedding everything was pretty much already set! Janice was so incredibly helpful, super responsive, detail oriented, and extremely professional. When the wedding day came our day went off without a hitch! We were completely relaxed all day because of the trust that Janice had already built-we knew she would move whatever mountain needed to be moved to make the day perfect. During the day she was the perfect amount of attentive to verify a few last details with us but mostly left us to just enjoy the day while she took care of everything else. She was also so attentive to our families during the day, always making sure they had food and drink and everything they needed, which was such a sweet level of service and care. If you want a coordinator who truly supports you through the wedding planning process and will make you feel completely at ease on your wedding day then hire Rue 29!

This review is long overdue and extremely well deserved!…read more If you're in the market for a wedding planning & coordination service, Bravo Weddings & Events is it. I can't emphasize enough how amazing Lisa Bravo and her crew are - from ideas to conception, phone and in person meetings, industry knowledge/service and suggestions, professionalism and follow through, she has the "it" factor! There are so many things on a bride's plate & working with Lisa I never felt overwhelmed or that anything was unreachable, rather anything was achievable. She is a huge factor and kudos to one of the most special & perfect days in our life to date, and we can't thank her and her services enough for the hard work of taking our vision to not only the finish line, but next level!

This review is for Katy Lohse of Bravo, she deserves a standing ovation and more!…read more My now-husband and I hired Katy wayyy back in March 2020 when we were bright-eyed and optimistic about having our wedding safely in June 2021. We hired Katy to help us with most of the planning and day-of coordination, which included unlimited communication with her until our special day. When we decided to postpone our wedding to June 2022, Katy was super accommodating. And nothing changed in terms of fees with Bravo - we got an entire extra year of bothering Katy for the exact same cost we paid in 2020. We had our wedding at Jacuzzi Family Vineyards and Katy was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the venue and everything & everybody that came with it. Whenever my husband and I had any questions we thought were random (questions about shuttles, where to host an after-party, where to have our rehearsal dinner, where to host day-after-wedding festivities, and so many more), Katy always had a well-thought-out answer via email for us within a day or two. Katy attended our tasting with Park Ave Catering and was also there with us for our site visit and rehearsal at our venue. Whenever she was around, my husband and I both felt at ease. When it came to the day of, everything ran smoothly and on-time as far as my husband and I could tell (which is all that matters, am I right?!). Our guests were amazed that our 5:00pm ceremony *actually* started at 5pm. The rest of the night flowed perfectly and I am so pleased that I have happy, WELL-PLANNED memories to look back fondly at on my wedding day. Thank you Katy for everything!

Our wedding day itself was seamless--her team was professional, efficient, and anticipated every need before I even had to ask.

The venue also complimented us on our choice of coordinator, so if you have any doubts, don't! For example, she wasn't thrilled with how the venue was folding the napkins, so she asked them to refold so our guests could see their names/menus/our gifts on the table placements. And she made sure every one was done right. Harlene is bubbly, bright, calming, and exactly what you need for your big day. I have zero regrets about hiring her and would 100% do it again. Thank you again, Harlene!
