The best and kindest planners in the business!!

We got married in June and had an amazing experience working with Jackie, Cookie, and Kaylin at About Joy — we really couldn’t have pulled it off without them and they truly live up to their joyful name!! They were each creative, attentive, and took every detail into account when we were planning. Their creativity and attention to detail were key for communicating about our complex, multi-event wedding in Oakland. As soon as we signed with them, they helped us hire all our other major vendors, making sure we got to work with their (and now our!) favorite people during the extra busy summer 2022 wedding season. And not a day went by in the final weeks of preparations that we didn’t say to each other “thank goodness we hired About Joy.” We cannot recommend About Joy strongly enough for your upcoming wedding!

Should've hired sooner!

My husband and I were struggling so much until we worked with Jackie. We regret not finding her sooner since she was such a big stress reliever for us! She had a wonderful and positive attitude in helping us figure out everything we needed and wanted for our wedding.

We were so excited to see it all come together. Unfortunately 2 weeks before the scheduled date, San Francisco had put restrictions in place due to COVID-19. Our wedding was cancelled. We weren't able to see the wedding we were eagerly looking forward to and that Jackie had worked so hard on to help us make that happen.

Once COVID-19 stuff dies down enough to begin planning smaller gatherings to celebrate, I am so grateful we can count on Jackie and Cookie to help. We would be so lost without them!
