I cannot say enough good things about Donna and ForgetMeKnot Events!! We recently worked with Donna on our Lake Tahoe Wedding and the whole event went perfectly. Donna was extremely organized and responsive leading up to the event. She had great opinions when I asked her for advice or feedback - I really trusted her throughout the whole process. She went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly - I had a last minute tasting and she went out of her way join us with less than a days notice. Icing on the cake: she has a great sense of humor and put me at ease if there was ever any stress! When it came to the day of the wedding I never thought twice about the details - I knew Donna had taken care of anything. Using ForgetMeKnot events was the best decision we could have ever made - I couldn't imagine the wedding planning process without Donna! I highly recommend doing the same!

Donna was awesome as my wedding planner. I would recommend her to anyone. She was organized, had great ideas, and had wonderful recommendations for vendors. She is friendly, easy to work with and was willing to work with me on a very short timeline. On the day of the wedding, she helped things go smoothly. If there was a problem, it was fixed and I didn't even know about it until afterward. Several close family and friends commented on how calmly she handled any situation that came up on the crazy wedding day. It was a beautiful wedding. Thanks, Donna!

I can not recommend Donna and forget me knot events more. We hired Donna as our day of coordinator but she did SO much more than just help on the day of! She took charge about 45 days before and took so much stress off me! On the day of she was amazing. I seriously do not know how we would have done it without her....I was stress free on my wedding day thanks to Donna!

Absolutely incredible!

We chose Forget Me Knot back in October with their partial planning package, and Allison went absolutely above and beyond for our special day. Her and her team stayed on top of each and every detail, and I can honestly say our wedding was absolutely perfect. No matter how many silly questions I asked, Allison was always so fast and helpful with her responses. As we entered the pandemic, she helped us remain calm and was so flexible no matter what changes came our way. It even began pouring rain after our ceremony, and Allison and her team worked so fast on moving everything indoors early without skipping a beat. We truly feel so lucky to have had Allison by our side throughout the whole planning process, and are so elated on how everything turned out. Thank you so much FMK team!

Makes your dreams come true!

We are so thankful for Forget Me Knot Events & Design! We hired Allison for month-of planning for our July 2020 wedding prior to COVID. Come July and it was our wedding month and we were still navigating COVID regulations. Allison was so great to work with and helped us make our dream wedding come true while keeping our guests and venue safe and healthy.

On top of that, Allison thought about every other “what-if” scenario and had a back-up plan for each! Even a plan for rain when there was no rain in the forecast!! But guess what... the day of the wedding we got a few sprinkles and we were SO thankful we had a plan figured out in case the rain continued (thankfully, it didn’t!)

Allison and her team made sure our large bridal parties and families were where they needed to be at the right time! That is no easy feat! They also made sure all our decor and personal items were properly packed up at the end of the night and brought to the right location.

Allison and her team were seriously our fairy godmothers who made magic happen without us even knowing or seeing (which is exactly what you want on your wedding day!!) and we are SO grateful for them.

Book them now!!

Seamless last-minute changes

I would highly recommend Allison's month-of wedding coordination at Forget Me Knot Events. Allison worked and re-worked our "day of" timeline so that it incorporated some last minute changes which provided my fiance and I with much comfort that things would go smoothly. For instance, during our rehearsal, the entire bridal party was uncomfortable with the unexpectedly cold weather outside, and so Allison proposed that we could move the entire dinner/reception the next day from outside (as planned) to indoors. That proved to be a great suggestion and made all our guests more comfortable; she organized the change with the venue and other vendors last-minute and as seamlessly as possible! From being the first one to provide my fiance and I with cocktails after the ceremony, to fixing my wedding dress bustle, to timing the first dance perfectly, Allison was able to perfectly position herself to assist us whenever we needed without being overly intrusive. She and her assistant did a wonderful job, I would highly recommend her services.

An Instrumental Part of Pulling off the Perfect Wedding Day!

Forget me Knot Events was truly incredible for our July wedding in Squaw Valley!!! Allison was there to help facilitate every step of the way with our "month-of" wedding package, and she was onsite all day on the day-of, along with the other coordinator, Lindsey. Allison was instrumental in communicating with and coordinating all of our vendors and the resort to ensure everything was aligned and organized in advance of the big day. Her help allowed me to free up some of my personal time so I didn't have to call/email and go back and forth with details and questions between all the vendors. I could not recommend Allison and Lindsey from FMKE any higher!! They made our day what it was -- and it was AMAZING!

So Thankful for Forget Me Know Events

My husband and I could not express how thankful and amazing Allison of Forget Me Knot Events was for our wedding we just had at West Shore Cafe. In January of this year, my fiance and I decided we would like to get married in Tahoe in a short 6 months instead of waiting for the following summer. We knew we would need a creative planner who would help us pull it off since we live in Sacramento. Allison was above and beyond. We had calls with many planners in the Tahoe area, and it was crystal clear to us that Allison was the best. I've planned many large corporate events in my career, and I wanted a full service planner to be make it feel like I wasn't working at planning my own wedding. From selecting our vendors to the teeny tiny details, she made it all a breeze. She was warm, super creative, has amazing taste, extremely organized and she was ready to start planning right away.

When we received our mood board to get an idea on our style I immediately knew we made the right choice. She took my very indecisive pinterest board and made something so beautiful and cohesive. I never worried for one second during our wedding planning process and she pulled through in every way. Our wedding day was flawless; it was more than I could have imagined and then some. I can't emphasize it enough, she was worth every single penny and I will forever always be grateful for everything she had planned for us. We received so many compliments on our wedding day details and I wish I could have taken credit for any of it but it was ALL Allison and we've been day dreaming and reliving the day since!

The best wedding planner there is!!

Allison did such an amazing job with my wedding! We hired her as the day of coordinator and communication started about 2 months prior to the wedding. From our first conversation I knew she was going to help make the rest of the wedding planning process go smoothly. She is extremely organized and was always available for any questions we had. She created our timeline and made sure everything was where it was suppose to be. I didn't have to worry about a single thing logistically on the day of my wedding which is so important because as the bride I really didn't have time to worry about the details. I am so happy with the hard work Allison put into our wedding and it couldn't have gone any better!

I have always gone by the quote "design your dream marriage, not your dream wedding" I had never been the girl who would dream about her wedding, nor had I ever planned anything further than what I was going to do the following day. No, my husband is the planner, and I'm the one who hopes everything happens for the best.

While my husband was deployed, I knew I had to ask for help so we would be able to have our special day planned when he returned.

I have known Donna for many years, and I knew without a doubt that she would be the one who I would contact.

Donna is not only thoughtful, caring, organized and talented, she is reassuring, and listens to visions and carries them out seamlessly.

My husband and I had a very inflexible budget and she worked very diligently helping us fit in all of the pieces. Those pieces included fragments of ideas that I had found off of pinterest that I wanted included in the wedding, with a difficult ceremony offsite of where the reception would be held. Donna was able to take my scattered vision and turn it into something off of a movie! Walking into my own wedding I couldn't catch my breath.

Donna was a guest at my wedding, and her assistant took care of everything during the reception. This included bringing a plate of appetizers to my husband and I when we didn't have time to try any, and never letting our drinks run out! I didn't even know that kind of thoughtfulness was included.

I could go on for pages about how wonderful Donna and Forget Me Knot Events is, but if you're like me and skim through reviews know this;

Donna's vision is timeless, she is seamless with putting everything together and I did not worry or hesitate for a moment trusting her with my entire (15-hour long) day. It was absolutely perfect.

Thank you
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Donna knows what she is doing...very professional, flexible and charming. It was a pleasure to work with her last year at a wedding. So many couples try to "do it themselves"...but a professional wedding planner is so important to pull it off with less stress.
