We hired Julia for wedding day coordination, and she was a dream to work with. I had researched countless coordinators and spoken with five other companies before finding Julia, and she was a breath of fresh air. She charged a reasonable rate, and she was committed to making our vision a reality. She exudes kindness, professionalism, and calm under pressure. We had a backyard wedding full of quirky details, and she went above and beyond to make them happen. The whole night was such a dream come true, largely thanks to her efforts. We felt so well taken care of, which is exactly what we were hoping for as it let us relax and truly enjoy ourselves. Our family was singing her praises, especially after seeing her coordinate our rehearsal dinner as well. Actual text from my husband's friend soon after the wedding: "Dude your coordinator was awesome! Super cool and excellent at her job" We couldn't agree more. Thank you, Julia!!! read more

Julia was an incredible blessing during our wedding, she brought us peace of mind that was crucial on our wedding day. I went with Julia's services for day-of coordination, but she truly goes above and beyond and helped me with questions and concerns starting the month before the wedding and even before that. She coordinated group calls with our vendors leading up to the wedding to make sure a solid wedding day schedule was set up and that everything went off without a hitch. The day of the wedding, Julia showed up and handled EVERYTHING. I mean, I didn't even get a peep to worry about while getting ready in the morning! I can't tell you how valuable that was, so that we could focus on being truly present with loved ones right before the wedding. She helped set up our venue beautifully and handled last minute changes with such grace that we didn't even notice them. When we arrived at our venue, we were so impressed with the set up and she kept a close eye on the schedule and our desired events for the rest of the night. Her energy is also just infectious, she's a positive and uplifting individual that will bring you the confidence and peace you need ok your wedding day. Thank you for everything, Julia! read more

Julia was the best coordinator we could have asked for! Her hard work on the day of our wedding allowed us to sit back and simply enjoy our special day. She ensured everything was running smoothly throughout the day by coordinating with the venue staff, keeping us on schedule, and handling all the details in between. Leading up to the day of, Julia was accessible for any questions we had regarding planning and was exceptionally gracious in her communication. Not to mention the beautiful job she did for our wedding florals as well! Our wedding would not have been the amazing day it was if it were not for Julia. read more

What can I say about Julia. She was literally an angel sent to a bride in need. Lol Our venue recommended Julia to me when I asked about a day of coordinator. I read her reviews and found out we had met in person at our food tasting. We talked for hours and I knew she was perfect for our wedding. Julia started helping me days before the wedding. She was always ready to answer questions and provide advice. For a bride who was emotionally drained she helped me see the light. I can't thank her enough. I highly recommend Julia if you need a day of coordinator. read more

Julia and Mike were an absolute dream come true. My husband and I tried to plan our wedding on our own until we realized there was SO much to consider and it was just way too much work for the two of us. The best decision we made was hiring Julia and Mike. They made our whole wedding perfect from the months leading up to it to the day of. Our wedding day could not have been more beautiful and amazing and it was all thanks to them. They are the sweetest people you will ever meet and they put love into everything they do. If you are planning a wedding and want it to be incredible, Julia and Mike are 100% essential. Thank you!!! read more

This review is FAR FAR overdue.. like 2 years overdue!!! Julia was basically the best thing about our wedding next to the photographer and of course the wedding itself. Within the year before the shindig she helped walk us through all that was needed. Checked up on me all the time to make sure I was still as sane as a person can be. She answered all my random questions with ease. The day before and day of she was calming, wonderful, organized, thought of things that I didn't (she brought Japanese umbrellas and fans to our Japanese Garden outdoor wedding for our guests to shade themselves with-without me asking because she's amazing) and embraced everything with love including me. Julia was referred to me by Dana Grant whom in my opinion is the best wedding photographer ever!! read more

Julia has an unparalleled understanding of how to run an event, and she has such a sweet, yet determined nature, that the event day feels easy and care-free. Given a truck-full worth of stuff in poorly-labeled boxes and basically zero instructions, Julia brought the vision in our heads for the decor to reality. We had bought or made items that we thought matched and looked nice but without really knowing how it would all fit together. Julia took all of the random pieces and helped create a beautiful, unified look. ** written in 05/2015; not sure how I forgot to post it 2.5 years ago =\ read more

I recently DJed a wedding that Julia planned, and she was fantastic! As a vendor it was a serious pleasure working with someone so organized, professional, flexible, and friendly. It's rare to find a planner who understands everything involved with a successful event -- from the venue, to the caterers, photographers, videographers, florists, make up artists.. etc... so much going on. I saw her navigate between so many tasks at hand, checking in on everyone, and ensuring a successful event. Julia's got it under control! read more

We just got married two weeks ago and I could not begin to describe how I feel about Julia and how thankful I am to have met her!! She is absolutely AMAZING!! She went above and beyond for us and was there every step of the way during the most stressful time of our lives. Our wedding was so PERFECT and she had a lot to do with it! I can go on and on about the amazing work she does but pictures say it all. I will definitely recommend her to anyone planning ANY event:) read more

To a beautiful person with such a kind heart,  Julia your letter meant the world to me, it was so beautifully written.  I cant find the proper words to show my appreciation but I will try my best. From the moment we met there was an aura about you that I just connected with.  You have such an easy going personality that made me feel comfortable and at ease to just be myself.  You have such a high caliber that is one of a kind. Weddings are extremely stressful and I admire the energy you give to go through it every weekend.  On the morning of our wedding day I remembered this... You taught me the importance of weddings, to always keep in mind that it is not the details nor materialistic things that matter, it is about the union of two people who love one another and sharing that love to the the important people in our lives.  It is these words that kept me balanced and for that I am extremely grateful.  Our wedding day was everything we could ever imagine.  We are not perfect people but that day it was just perfect.  We owe a big part of that to you. Thank you for being a friend and not making it just a job.  You have been so supportive from the start. I am truly blessed to have met you and had the pleasure of having you part of our big day.  Thank you for the tears, the laughter and most of all for welcoming us into your heart. Side note:  thank you Mike for all the help during our special day.  Thank you for the wonderful compliments that just made our day even better.  I felt like my head was getting bigger with each compliment but you kept it coming lol.  You guys are such a great team.  I'm definetly overwhelmed with all the love and kindness you showed us.  Duc and I are very lucky. With love and admiration,    Anna read more

About three months ago, my wife and I had our dream wedding. Julia and Mike are a big reason why! They were there to guide us and give us advice every step of the way. They were both genuinely happy and excited to help us plan our big day. Not only did that take a lot of the pressure off of us, but we were able to trust them with whatever we needed done. From picking out flower arrangements to figuring out all the logistics, they helped us in ways beyond measure. Mike was even the MC for our wedding! Finding the right coordinators for your wedding makes a world of difference, and I HIGHLY recommend Julia and Mike. They were unbelievably helpful, kind, and organized, and they made sure that every decision we made was the right one. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Julia at a wedding this summer and was so impressed with her professionalism and kindness. She was calm at all times even though there were quite a few surprises and made sure everyone (the happy couple, the guests, the vendors) were all handled with great care. Her husband Mike was also assisting that day and had an infectious energy about him. Together they made sure the wedding went smooth and happy as can be. Thank you for all do Julia! Can't wait to work with you again. read more

Julia was the month-of coordinator for my wedding, and let me just say, it wouldn't have turned out half as well without Julia there to guide and organise it all! Julia has a wonderful eye for detail and such class in both style and spirit! She is incredibly easy to work with. I had a general idea of the theme/style I wanted for my wedding, and she helped me narrow it down to something that really embodied my & my husband's personalities. Our friends & family all agreed that our wedding was "so us". Her patience and calming attitudes and words did wonders when I was on-edge and frazzled the week before and morning of the wedding. My husband and I and our families were all impressed with Julia's ability to anticipate our needs and wishes. I'm a perfectionist for details, and having Julia there was like having my clone decorate downstairs as I got my hair & make-up done. The candles and greenery were placed perfectly around the venue, the linens and tables and table settings were arranged just as I'd envisioned... the whole things was perfect, and I know we have Julia to thank for that completely! If you're thinking of hiring Julia, DO IT!!! (photos by the amazing Dana Grant) read more

Where do we begin? From the moment that we first met with Mike and Julia, they made us feel relaxed. We knew we were in good hands, and they made every step of the planning process an adventure. We honestly don't think we could have done it without them. Julia and Mike were so creative and really took a "think-outside-of-the-box" approach, which helped create a personal touch to our special day. They truly got to know us as couple, but also as individuals. The day of was smooth, and any bumps in the road were handled swiftly. Julia and Mike brought amazing vendor recommendations with them, and not only did each vendor match perfectly to our needs, they were also amazing people, which made our experience with them so much more meaningful. If you are planning your special day, we would highly recommend Mike and Julia! read more

I'd give Julia 10 stars if possible. Julia was the coordinator for our November wedding, and it was one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process. She is one of those rare kindred spirits who you feel like you have known for ages upon meeting her! Our families LOVED her! She helped out with everything from the planning process, the itinerary, all the details & and checklists, etc. She help set the agenda for our rehearsal, and on the day of, we didn't have to worry about a thing. She has impeccable taste. Being that we didn't know what we were doing , she had great advice from everything regarding venue set up, logistics, how to wear my veil, etc. Julia is clearly knowledgeable and experienced with all things wedding-related. On top of that, she is also incredibly organized, reliable and professional in every way. Because of her help, we truly were able to focus on enjoying the day, our loved ones, and each other, rather than worrying about managing dozens of minute details. In retrospect, I can't imagine doing it without her! If you're unsure about the idea of a wedding planner (as I was), do yourself a favor and hire Julia immediately. You won't regret it! read more

I was fortunate enough to meet my God-send, Julia, for my wedding at the Norris Pavilion. She was by far my favorite wedding vendor. She took care of all the table settings, food, wait staff, chairs, dessert table decorations, and gave me fantastic wedding referrals. She singlehandedly made my wedding reception so beautiful, and I thank her for that. There were many details that I had forgotten about, like the table number chart and stage lights (very important stuff), and Julia had it all covered. I felt like I was in good hands, and she made me feel so comfortable because she was always true to her word and so reliable and kind through the whole process! She is an amazing, talented, creative person who has fresh, elegant taste and she knows how to deliver concept to reality. I would recommend her to anybody! She is a true professional! read more

Julia is an awesome, talented, energetic and super professional wedding coordinator! She made the whole day stress free and was so easy to work with. I adore her sense of humor, openness and fun personality. Julia had everything under control, she communicated info to vendor very well, and was quick to adapt to changes to the timeline. She's very professional, and organized, two traits that are very crucial to being a fabulous wedding coordinator. She's one of those fun and positive people that you love hanging out with. I would definitely recommend Julia to any future brides! read more

Julia was born for this business!! We initially hired her as a day-of coordinator, but she really does much more than we ever expected. On top of being highly organized and patient (because I am equally organized and a bit of a control freak), she remains calm and collected throughout. I've attended and participated in MANY weddings where I see the coordinators fall apart or get overwhelmed. I was so concerned about having a point person as organized as myself for the day of and after meeting with Julia the week before the wedding, I had absolutely NO WORRIES--and easing my mind from relinquishing control is no easy task! That's how much I trusted her. It really helped me kick back and relax the morning of so I could enjoy my day. On top of being extremely attentive with my husband and I, she was equally as wonderful towards our wedding party, friends, and family in attendance. Highly recommended and I am so thankful for all her help at our wedding this past weekend! It was perfect. read more

Julia is awesome! I would definitely recommend them to my clients. Great job and so professionally handled all parts of her job. Thank you for the awesome-ness! Looking forward to working with you again soon! read more

Ms. Julia has it down. She is poised, professional, punctual, and perfect. She is also an effective problem solver when there is just too much too think about and not enough brain space. She evaporates all of your stress and worry from the moment you sign up with her to the last thing she packs up in her car after your big day is over. Seriously, she stayed with me until 2 am on my big day. Also, she is really good as consoling emotional brides. She always has a hanky handy. I owe a tremendous thanks to her partner Mike for helping my big fat Armenian family create the wedding of our dreams. Oh! I must mention they have experience with many ethic backgrounds so they get that each culture has their own flair and way of doing things. They will not only work within the perameters of your cultural standards but enhance the experience as well. Bottom line, Serendipitous Events or bust. read more

Five stars are just not enough to praise Julia for her hard work, creativity, dedication and professionalism as a wedding planner! From our first phone contact to our first meeting, I felt immediately calm by her personality. She is fun, personable and knows her stuff. My husband and I clicked with her right away in our meeting, and she was so helpful through out the entire planning process . Even though she was the day of coordinator she listened to us, asked a lot of great questions, and truly guided us through the whole process. Even when challenging situations arose during the big day she resolved them peacefully. The big day went off without a hitch! We were truly able to relax and take it all in without a worry, and we owe much of that to Julia. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking to make their experience enjoyable. read more

Wow! What can I say about Julia? Well, she was probably one of the main reasons that I had the wedding of my dreams!!!! She and her partner Mike were absolutely AMAZING the day of my wedding; and all the days leading up to the wedding! Not only did they meet with us several times before the wedding, but she was constantly texting and emailing me to make sure everything was getting taken care of! I don't know what my husband and I would have done without Julia and Mike the day of our wedding! I was also having some anxiety before the wedding and she made sure to give me a hug and calm me down and I really appreciate that!!!! I will definitely be recommending Julia and Mike to my friends and family for any events! Thank you!!!! read more
