Thank you for helping us live our forever day!

My husband and I are so grateful for Mirella and her team! True to the name, there is no way we would have had the memorable day that we had without having worked with An Everlasting Moment.

I first found Mirella after having interviewed a few different wedding planners. I wanted to make sure that I found somebody who was punctual, engaged, professional, could give good perspective and guidance and would plan this wedding no differently than they would plan for their own wedding or their own child's wedding. I found all of that and more in working with Mirella.

I'm actually kind of sad that our wedding is over because if I could continue working with her, I totally would! I always look forward to her Monday morning emails outlining all the things I needed to get done for that week. Working in the tech industry myself, it's so helpful to have that structure and guidance in project management, this way ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks.

It is incredibly difficult to plan a wedding during a global pandemic. It was especially difficult in that during the time we were wedding planning, my brother passed away. At that moment my attention had to shift to funeral planning amongst other things. Mirella hopped right in and began looking for venues for us and getting all the big stuff done so that I could focus on my family. I really am so very grateful for her showing up for me and my family in this way. It is the most thoughtful thing that a perfect stranger could do--we literally had just started working together maybe a week or so before. But she just jumped on in and began emailing and hopping on phone calls with different vendors to ensure that nothing got left by the wayside. It really built so much trust for me. I didn't have to check in to ask her if she had done anything or what she was working on because she made sure to copy me on emails and also kept me in the loop in a way that was comfortable for me.

Throughout the process of planning the wedding, Mirella was just fabulous in all her recommendations. She has so many different vendors that she's worked with in past, so it was so easy for her to share with me guidance and perspective to help us make decisions for our wedding. She also was just so willing to go above and beyond and literally everything that she did and just filling in wherever she was needed!

I'm so so grateful for her and all the work that she and her team did on the day of our wedding. Having a 400+ guest list, and helping to navigate through all the restrictions due to COVID-19, everything that Mirella did was to help us with knowing what options we had. She often worked directly with the vendors without me even having to say anything. She literally just took control and got stuff done.

The day of our wedding was so beautiful! You often wonder if you'll hire somebody who will make you feel as though you don't have to worry about anything on that day except for smiling for pictures, drinking lots of champagne, and partying with friends and family. That's exactly how my wedding day went! She really made everything move so smoothly! And it's no wonder--throughout the entire planning process, Mirella was always happy to hop on zoom calls, come to site visits, hop on phone calls, respond on text messages, respond on email, I'm pretty sure she would have also responded via flight pigeon if necessary! She is just that responsive!!!

I literally NEVER write reviews for anything. But I felt it was so necessary to praise Mirella and just the amazing person that she is. She and her team are just the most wonderful people on planet Earth! I am so, so, so grateful for everything that she has done and her team for really helping to pull off such an amazing day that will always sit in our memory forever and ever. She's not just a wedding planner, she's become part of our family. I hope to use her for planning my baby shower and any other planning needs I have. Thank you so very much An Everlasting Moment. xoxo

Perfect Wedding Planning – 100% Recommend!

We are so grateful to have found Mirella. Not only was she an exceptional planner, but we’re honored to now call her a friend. Here are a few highlights from our experience:

1. Attention to Detail:
Mirella's attention to detail is unmatched. She requested to be CCed on all emails and genuinely read through every single one. She often knew details before we even shared them with her!

2. Kindness & Calm:
Mirella was unbelievably kind and encouraging throughout the entire process. Her calm and composed demeanor was exactly what we needed while coordinating between many vendors with different styles. It’s no surprise she has such fantastic relationships with many in the Bay Area, including our venue and DJ, which was incredibly helpful and reassuring.

3. Thought Partner:
Mirella was the perfect sounding board for our ideas. With her wealth of experience, she helped us fine-tune our plans, offering invaluable insights when adjustments were needed.

4. Post-Wedding Check-In:
Even after the wedding, Mirella took the time to check in with us, discussing what went well and how she adapted to any unforeseen challenges. Her transparency added an extra layer of trust to the whole process.

If you’re looking for a wedding planner, just send Mirella an email – you’ll see exactly what we mean!

An Everlasting Moment kept us on track and happy

We can say completely without hyperbole that if we hadn't hired An Everlasting Moment, the wedding we would have ended up with wouldn't have been even close to what we wanted. Without them to keep us on track we likely would have ended up with a wedding full of compromises. But thanks to An Everlasting Moment we had a dream wedding with amazing vendors and everything went off like clockwork.

Mirella saw our vision and made it happen with extreme efficiency. She made it easy for us to stay on track, and more importantly stay excited about our wedding for the entire planning and leadup period.

The pain points that cropped up were largely with the venue, and Mirella took care of everything and let us focus on what was important rather than arguing about the finer points of the vendor agreements.

We'll be recommending An Everlasting Moment to absolutely anyone in the area who's even THINKING about getting married.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
