About
Wedding and Event Planning
Serving Walnut Creek, The greater San Francisco Bay Area, Beyond, and Destination

Beautiful events happen here!  What’s your style...Romantically Traditional, Fun & Funky, New York Trendy, Elegant and Sophisticated, Whimsical Fantasy, Ethnic, or Gorgeous on a Dime?  Your style is my style.  I create weddings and events that are unique and represent your dreams.  Along with the Wow! Factor I create, I take the stress out of your planning, making the entire experience fun!   From day 1 until the last well wishes have been spoken, you can trust that I and my team are working hard to ease your stress, organizing everything to the Nth degree, and creating an atmosphere that will make your party the talk of the town! 

I am fully prepared and experienced to help you with any needs you might have...from full service planning to just the “Day of Coordination”. Planning your wedding should be a fun event, and I love to make that happen. You can feel confident that I will go that extra mile for you to make your day the most wonderful and memorable of your life. My goal is to make your wedding totally stress free. We will figure out a budget that works for you, and I keep you on budget, giving constant updates. I am organized to the nth degree (just ask my usual rental company...they say I am the most organized and efficient Planner they've ever met). Besides, I am so much fun to work with, that you will feel like the planning of your wedding is an adventurous and exciting time!

I offer a two hour complimentary meeting to get to know each other, discuss the different levels (packages) of coordination and your needs, and anything else you would like to discuss. You will leave our meeting with lots of ideas and ways to save money and still have a gorgeous wedding! Please contact me today to set up a date and time for your complimentary meeting. Your fiance, a family member, and/or friend are always welcome to come along.

**  Free Gift of Decor **

For every bride who chooses one of my planning packages (except the "Mini Day Of"), I give a free gift of decor to the bride and groom, as decor is my specialty.  What I create depends on your needs and the level of planning that you have chosen.  As an example, for a fall wedding this past October (2008), I added chocolate brown table linens with fall plaid and orange overlays.  You can see a few of the photos on my website under "A Fall Wedding".  These are the special kinds of things I do for my brides that leaves them breathless with happiness!

** Specialty Rentals **

Also check out my website and see just a few of the many unique and beautiful specialty rentals that I offer.  Want to have that "high end" look, but you can’t believe the price of fresh flowers?  On a budget?  My "Rent A White Wedding" permanent florals in white or pink are very hard to distinguish from the real thing.  Add one of my tall garden urns or crystal vase towers, and no one will be the wiser.  Use a mix...do a permanent arrangement on the tables, and use fresh for your bouquets.  Or, if you love your bouquet so much that you can’t bear for it to wilt and die, I make high end look custom permanent floral bouquets that you will enjoy for years and years.  The options are endless.  Want a Dessert and Candy bar?  I rent all of the glass bowls, huge martini glasses, apothecaries, etc...everything but the candy!

** Destination Weddings ** 

And, guess what?  All of the flowers in the pictures below are permanent.  Yes, I toted them in four huge suitcases, thousands of miles to a destination wedding in the Caribbean to the amusement of everyone!

Tips and Advice
It’s not necessarily "location, location, location"...I would say it’s "photography, photography, photography".  Once the wedding and honeymoon are over, what you have left to remember it all by is your photos.  Photography isn’t the place to cut corners.  Even though Uncle Ed says he can take great pictures, it’s best to leave it to a professional.
