A True Pro and the Excellent Choice for a Catalina Island Wedding
We can’t say enough wonderful things about working with Samantha Hall Events! We hired Samantha for month of coordination for our wedding at the Descanso Beach Club on Catalina Island, and it was truly one of the best decisions we made. Her knowledge of the island was incredibly helpful. She guided us through a smooth and realistic timeline, shared thoughtful tips, and managed all of our vendors with complete professionalism.
On our wedding day she kept everything running seamlessly and even had drinks ready for us as soon as we walked down the aisle! Our guests keep telling us it was the best wedding they have ever been to, and so much of that was thanks to Samantha and her team.
We highly recommend Samantha. She is a true pro and an overall wonderful person to work with! -

I cannot even begin to describe how amazing Samantha was. My husband and I were doing long-distance and needed to plan the wedding, which we both lacked a lot of knowledge on. Samantha gently guided us in the most amazing and patient way. She was so kind, so thorough; I do not know what we would’ve done without her. I want to hire Sam for every single event I will have for the rest of my life. Not only is she so skilled with her work but also but also her personality is so lively and a pure joy to work with. Samantha made it fun; we had a lot to do and she made this experience a great one. She helped me create my dream wedding. She always gave great advice and she truly is so skilled in her work. I am sad my wedding is over but I am especially sad my time working with Sam is over! -

WOW WHERE DO I BEGIN?!? Samantha and her team were seriously a god send to me and my fiancé! Having a cross-cultural wedding can be very overwhelming but Samantha is incredibly organized, extremely knowledgeable with solid experience that translates across venues and vendors, and has an uplifting positive energy that makes any daunting wedding task seem doable. Honestly, I don’t think we could’ve made it through the planning or the execution without her sound guidance, calming personality, and focused energy to get things done. I strongly recommend her services to any bride and groom! -

We selected Samantha Hall events to help with wedding coordination services a little over a year prior to our wedding and it was probably the best decision we made that ensured our wedding was as perfect as we hoped. Samantha is professional, personal and it’s clear she cared genuinely to ensure we had the wedding we hoped for. She gave great advice, is extremely thorough and detailed and she has great connections with vendors and gave great recommendations on vendors we should consider. Samantha ensured we received great value from our vendors, kept everyone on track and organized. Even when we had to deal with our venue event manager changing multiple times Samantha made sure no detail was forgotten or lost in the transitions. On our wedding day Samantha and her assistants made sure our guests, our wedding party and both my partner and I were taken care of and they were a pleasure to work with. We are more than satisfied with our decision to work with Samantha, she helped make our wedding memorable and we highly recommend her and her team! -

Marissa Sent on 11/15/2024Dream Team! Perfection from Planning to I DO
From start to finish, working with Samantha Hall Events was an absolute dream! Samantha is incredibly organized, attentive to detail, and always made sure our wedding planning process was as stress-free as possible. She was so responsive throughout the entire process, and we truly appreciated her honest opinions and advice — especially when it came to selecting vendors. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she even guided us through the contract stage, making sure we were clear on all the fine print.
Samantha's ability to create a well-organized, reasonable timeline was key to keeping everything on track. She communicated the timeline to all our vendors, so everything flowed seamlessly on the big day. Speaking of which, her team was just amazing — so friendly, helpful, and truly there to make sure our vision came to life. They helped keep things moving smoothly, and I can honestly say they played a huge part in making our day absolutely perfect.
One of the highlights for me was that, despite the hustle of wedding day logistics, Samantha and her team made sure we got to eat! They even made sure we had our favorite drinks and appetizers while we were off taking photos. I can genuinely say I ate at my wedding, and that's something I will always be grateful for.
If you're looking for a wedding planner who is professional, kind, and dedicated to bringing your dreams to life, I can't recommend Samantha Hall Events enough. She and her team are truly exceptional! -

August Southern California Wedding
Amanda Mitchell from Samantha Hall Events was exceptional! She was very patient and answered all of my questions during our consultation phone call and helped guide me throughout the wedding planning process. She was sweet and genuinely cared about your wedding planning experience. Throughout the planning process, she was organized and stayed true to the wedding vision. She made sure that the floral designs, linens, etc. were exactly what we discussed on our wedding design. The vendors that she recommended were impressive. Since we were planning a wedding in Southern California while living in Pennsylvania, it was important to my fiance and I that we work with someone professional, responsive and efficient - Amanda was exactly that. Amanda made sure to FaceTime us when she visited our wedding venue and walked us through the areas where we had our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. The day before our wedding, she offered to pick up our wedding signage, table numbers and menus to bring to our venue so that we did not have to be charged a delivery fee. She went above and beyond and my husband and I are truly grateful! Amanda and her team on the day of our wedding made sure that we were comfortable, relaxed and having fun. We highly recommend Samantha Hall Events. What I appreciated most about Amanda and her team was their genuine enthusiasm and support. They made our wedding vision into a reality and we are forever thankful. -

Katherine Sent on 07/25/2024The best planner ever!
Where do I even begin in reviewing Samantha Hall Events? From the moment I first met Sam, I knew she was the perfect planner for me. Her approach to planning ensures you're never consumed by the event—she makes it fun and stress-free, and her can-do attitude is exactly what every bride needs. She understood my vision even before I was able to articulate it, and she made the entire process wonderful.
I was lucky enough to hire Sam and her team for the entire wedding weekend, and watching Sam and her team in action at the events was INSANE. Sam and her team are incredible—such professionals and never let you see any of the madness that happens behind the scenes. My wedding was PERFECT because of her.
Sam made all of wedding dreams come true. I mean it. Do yourself a favor and hire Sam! I promise you will not regret it. -

Can not recommend Samantha enough!
Samantha and her team were amazing from the very start. Not only did they make the wedding planning experience easy, but she also gave great advice and made the wedding day a breeze. Though the venue gave her many obstacles on the day of, my husband and I had no idea. I can not thank the team enough for making our day so perfect and stress-free. -

Only Hire Samantha! Truly the best!!!
Where do I start.... Samantha Hall and her coordinators are some of the most incredible people you'll ever have the pleasure of knowing and working with. From the very first conversations my husband and I felt at ease, she's SO knowledgable and helped us hone in on our vision from the start. From then on throughout the process, she answered every question, every random thought, traveling multiple times down to our PS location, handled all conversations with vendors seamlessly, and went OUT OF HER WAY on the day of with stuff that went wrong (due to outside forces). Trust me.... as much as you can prepare - something may go wrong! And for us.... something major - our rental company (Town and Country) forgot SO much of our order!!! As soon as she arrived, she immediately got on the phone with them, backups, and handled everything so I had no idea and wouldn't stress. They forgot our bands stage, linens, fryers (if you can believe it) and more! But her and her team was so on it the entire day - and when I would see them, they were so warm and kind hearted and never let on what was going on. Trust me, if you're deciding on what wedding planner to go with and you're on the edge for any - it's Samantha Hall Weddings & Events. Only her and her team would I ever recommend to anyone!!! -

From start to finish, Amanda was exceptional! Her attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism made our special day flawless! She was always there whenever I needed assistance or had questions, going above and beyond. She proactively aided with aspects I hadn't even considered seeking help for. I highly, highly, recommend Amanda and working with Samantha Hall Events. Thank you Amanda. -

Toni Sent on 07/11/2022Samantha made our dreams come true! Best decision ever!
My sister stumbled across Samantha Hall Events on a Pinterest post of a really pretty wedding she did at my venue at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu. I was also so pleased to learn she was one of Calamigos Ranch’s preferred vendors for wedding coordination.
Getting a wedding coordinator is one of the best decisions and best money spent you’ll make on vendors for your wedding. Samantha was hands down the best decision and she and her team made my wedding perfect! My husband and I got married at The Oak Room at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu on February 25, 2022. Samantha made everything seamless, stressless, and she and her team handled every special detail and coordination with all of the other vendors so flawlessly.
She was so organized leading up to the wedding, took so much off our plate, and had such great vibes. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our wedding DIY elements were displayed creatively, she kept our vendors on track, she timed everything perfectly and was the reason our wedding was as magical as it was. We decided to add on Samantha's rehearsal services last minute and it was worth it to make sure everyone was prepared for the next day. Even with a brand new baby at home, she spent so much time with us 5 weeks up until the wedding, the day before and the day and night of the wedding.
Samantha was well-versed and very knowledgeable with all the rules, as well as knew all the staff members from our wedding venue, she knew most of our other vendors and our vendors all highly recommended her saying they've done many beautiful weddings alongside her, she kept my husband on time (which is saying a lot), and she made sure every detail down to what drink I wanted throughout the night was covered. If there were any issues I had no idea because she made sure to handle everything so I could relax and enjoy our special day.
My husband and I were in awe, our guests said it was the best wedding they've been to, and our wedding far exceeded our expectations due to Samantha. We highly recommend booking Samantha Hall Events! HUGE thank you to Samantha and her team for making our wedding so special! By far the best investment of our wedding costs! -

Samantha and her team were true pros as Samantha navigated and handled our wedding ceremony and reception from initial planning, leading up to the big day, the ceremony and reception through wrapping up the festivities. The attention to detail, system Samantha has in place for planning and execution and cool-under-pressure mentality and workflow made our wedding day a wonderful and unforgettable event. On the day of the wedding, we didn't have to worry about a thing, Samantha and her team had everything handled. We highly recommend Samantha and her team to make your special day a day you'll always remember. - Sabina & James -

Wendy Sent on 06/11/2022An amazing wedding isn't magic when you have Samantha!
Samantha Hall Events came highly recommended and we could not have been happier to have her for our daughter's wedding! My friends couldn't believe how smoothly everything was going during the planning process - we had a detailed plan, a design, amazing vendors, and best of all, our daughter and (now) son-in-law were not overwhelmed and I was not crazy with stress for our 100-person wedding! One friend said "it's magic!" and I told her "it's not magic, it's Samantha!" She made sure we had an amazing photographer, a very talented and practical florist, a fun and experienced DJ, and every other vendor we needed. She made sure we had a beautiful design that reflected the couples' tastes and sensibilities. She made sure everything that was important to them, and lots of things they hadn't realized were important to them, happened just as they should. She was warm, responsive, supremely organized and resourceful. She met any challenges with humor, grace, and effective solutions. She coordinated seamlessly with the venue and made sure every tiny detail was taken care of. She kept us informed and was always there when we needed her. We chose her partial plan (two months - one you choose and one leading up to the wedding including day of), plus a couple of add-ons we wanted. It's the best money I've ever spent! We did our first month about 11 months out and came away with everything set up and a detailed list of what she and we needed to do every step of the way. Everyone said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to and it's all because of Samantha. The day of the wedding was perfect because she and her team were there to make sure it was. My advice - make sure you get Samantha Hall Events lined up now! -

Rami Sent on 04/08/2022My experience was a 10/10! Amanda was the best!
If I could recommend anything for your wedding, it would be to book a wedding coordinator/planner. It was the best decision I ever made. Amanda and her team were so sweet and just the best. They made all my wedding dreams come to life and I seriously don’t know what I would have done without them. Planning a wedding is so stressful but I guarantee if you book with Samantha Hall events you won’t regret a thing. From the organization, to running every detail by me, to her sweet personality, Amanda truly was the best and was worth every Penny! -

Taylor Sent on 12/07/2021Sam is an angel
Sam was the absolute ideal dream wedding planner I could have ever asked for. She made me feel so organized, so on top of everything and didn't miss a single details. She was so responsive and quick to reply to any concerns or questions I had, and made me feel so love, special and taken care of on my day as well as the year and a half leading up to it. I'm actually so sad I won't have another wedding, just because I'd want to go through the whole experience again, haha. I recommend her to ANYONE searching for that perfect person. She's so chill and all around just the best vibes. I truly miss her so much and I hope her and her team gets to plan a friend's wedding in the future so I can experience their top notch service and magic. I LOVE THEM!!!!! -

Zoe H. Sent on 01/27/2021The Reason for a Successful Wedding Day
Samantha made my wedding day the most stress-free, peaceful day of my life. There were multiple occasions that I said out loud on my day, "Is anyone surprised how easy this is???" Seriously, she covered everything, thought of everything, and made the day the best day of my life. There were multiple moments where I asked her questions, only for her to say that she already had covered each and every detail. Nothing was left undone. Also, multiple family members and friends of mine vocally expressed how dialed, funny, and kind she was throughout the day. Cannot recommend her enough. -

Carly Sent on 09/29/2019Thank you Samantha Hall Events!!!
I had the best possible experience working with Samantha Hall Events for my wedding this month. My overall planner was Amanda and day-of person was Angela, and they could not have been more wonderful.
They are so knowledgable about weddings and offer suggestions and advice a bride would never think of without their help, which I was so grateful for. I appreciated their organization, responsiveness, and joy in what they do.
Their strategy on the day of is to offer as much help as possible and execute each task and event throughout the day in an organized but non-pushy way. If you wanted to push the timing of something back, like the bouquet toss, they were more than happy to execute that but would make sure you stayed on track regardless. They are wonderful at taking the stressful part of the wedding for the bride out of the equation.
I would recommend them 10 times out of 10 to any bride looking for a wonderful planning company. Thank you, Samantha Hall Events - you made the day perfect! -

Allie Sent on 09/17/2019Samantha Hall exceeded our expectations!!!! :)
During the wedding planning process I interviewed 7 planners/coordinators and immediately knew that Samantha stood out from the rest. During our initial phone call she asked me heartfelt, and caring questions - how did my spouse and I meet? What was my vision for the wedding? What were the most important elements to both of us? And I am so grateful that I decided to work with Samantha because she absolutely exceeded our expectations. I am extremely detail oriented and organized, but I have found my match - someone who helped us with our 5 weeks out planning and day-of coordination PERFECTLY. She made us feel comfortable and offered suggestions that were always based in experience and professionalism. Her team on the day-of was fantastic and made sure to find solutions to any last minute blips that came up. I HIGHLY recommend Samantha and her team! And happy to chat if you have any questions for me -

Sarah Sent on 08/18/201910/5 stars. Excellent!
I would 100% recommend Samantha Hall Events for her planning services. We chose the 5 weeks/day of coordination, and our coordinator Angela Russo was nothing short of spectacular. She truly went above and beyond to take care of everything from the moment we began working together to the end of the wedding. When I remembered I needed to email a vendor about something, I would check my email and see she had already taken care of it. She thought of every detail and made sure the event ran smoothly. It was such a pleasure to work with Angela and this company -- I would choose them all over again in a heartbeat.

I will recommend Samantha forever
Samantha and team are absolutely incredible.
If you want to have a chance at enjoying your wedding day and if you don't want to have to think about the little details that make everything happen, you need Samantha. I could not have had a more perfect day and we owe that a lot to her and her team.
We hired Samantha as a month-of-coordinator and as I mentioned in the title, I would recommend Samantha forever and I will encourage all people planning a wedding to have a wedding coordinator that you can trust. Samantha was always very quick to respond to all my questions and kept all of my vendors on track. She effectively dealt with a space-y vendor of mine that was not very responsive and Samantha provided alternatives in case that vendor ended up not working out (sorry for putting you through that Samantha) and was able to catch a mix up in payment to the cake company before we ended up not having a cake on the wedding day.
I highly recommend Samantha. You will NOT regret having her on your team. -

Sarah Sent on 09/22/2018I met Samantha when I was a bridesmaid in one of my best friends weddings that she was coordinating, and as soon as it came time to plan my own, I knew who to call! Samantha is extremely efficient, organized, and knowledgeable which really helped me out a lot and made me feel so much less stressed during the planning process and on the big day. I had a huge sigh of relief after just a planning phone call with her! She provided really great insight, advice, and support and she really went above and beyond to make our wedding weekend special. On top of that, she is super friendly and just a lot of fun. A huge thank you to Sam and her entire team for being so professional and awesome

Annelie Sent on 01/16/2018I needed Samantha more than I could ever realize. I've planned a few events so I felt like I could do this by myself and have everything under control. As time progressed I realized, not only can I NOT do this alone, I don't want to, the stress of creating a timeline, contacting every vendor, making sure payments are sent on time, making sure they arrive on time, handling the walk throughs, setting up and taking down decor - IT'S JUST NOT POSSIBLE. And even I could swing it, it would have been too much, you want to enjoy your time leading up to the wedding not emailing every person involved in the wedding. I had more Christmas decor that Santa's village (Decemeber wedding) and I thought I had great ideas of how to decorate everything - the final product, the way Samantha and her team installed everything IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING I'VE EVER SEEN. It was literally the wedding of my dreams and it's all thanks for Samantha. She's prompt, organized, aggressive on your behalf, creative and all around such a fun person to be around. Thanks Samantha Hall Events!

Chrislynn Sent on 11/11/2019Amazing Day of Coordinator!
Wanted to thank Samantha and her incredible team for the work they did the weekend of our wedding. Leading up to the wedding, Samantha was SUPER communicative through email and phone calls, if needed. The day of the wedding, she was like a straight up circus ringmaster! My (now) husband said she was like a secret agent operative because she was so amazing at making sure every detail was perfectly covered. Not only did we feel so taken care of, but we also felt that our guests, family and friends were taken care of. She kept our bridal party of 20 (10 on each side) happy and organized- NOT an easy task to do! We were able to enjoy time with our family and friends the entire day because she literally took care of all the background things that needed to be handled. She was super professional the day of- she was in communication with every vendor and everything was executed flawlessly. It felt so good to be able to totally trust her to make sure that everything went smoothly and that we didn’t have to worry about any of the details. We got to show up, party and enjoy our evening! All of our family and friends have said that our wedding was one of the smoothest and MOST FUN weddings they have ever been to. My day was more than perfect and we couldn’t have done it without her. Thank you Samantha and team for everything!
