Leah is the BEST

Leah possesses a remarkable eye for detail. Every aspect of our wedding, from the floral arrangements to the table settings, was executed with precision and care. She and Maria ensured that every little element reflected our vision, and the result was nothing short of breathtaking. Thank you so much!

Phenomenal!

Leah and her team are phenomenal! Planning an out-of-state wedding added a layer of stress, and would not have been successful without Leah in our court. Leah made our Pinterest board come to life with a flawless execution. She was patient with my many questions and refreshingly honest with what was possible in the venue space. She even allowed us to ship things to her personally since we were not local.

As we already had such a positive experience working with Leah on wedding planning, it was an easy decision to have Dare to Dream also handle all floral arrangements. I wanted flowers and fruits of specific types and colors; and even though my requests were off season, Leah made magic happen!

She was not only an active participant in all our conversations with vendors, but also an absolute BOSS in managing delicate conversations with the wedding guests. Leah and her team look out for the couples they work with, and we could not recommend hiring Dare to Dream more highly!

Incredible Service, Incredible Price-- Coordinator and Florist!

I am so grateful for Leah, Andrea, Drew, and everyone at Dare To Dream!

When hiring a coordinator, Dare to Dream stood out as one of the most affordable coordinators in the area, but once I talked to Leah, I knew she was worth any price. At every turn, she just got it. Great taste, so communicative, always friendly and reassuring. And we live out of state and had a destination wedding, so communication was key-- and Leah just crushed it.

When it came time to pick a florist, it just made sense to go with Dare to Dream because even though they were just our day of coordinator, they were already so invested in our day and our vision.

I gave Leah and her team a lot of freedom to design our florals— I don’t know anything about flowers— and they did not disappoint. A totally unique and stunning execution of what we had in mind.

But that’s just how they roll! On the day of our wedding, they continued to anticipate our needs and act efficiently, professionally, and with so much care for us and our families. The whole team made us feel like the most special grooms in the world.

Need to give a special shout out to Drew who went above and beyond day of. He found so many little ways to support us, let us sit in the gravity of our day, and find quiet moments to be together just the two of us or alone in the anxious moments throughout the day. He even retrieved my late-night 2nd look for me from downstairs and STEAMED IT. When I was changing into it, he offered to wipe sweat off my back with a paper towel…. Now that is some top notch service right there! And that’s just me, my husband and our families had similar praises to sing of Drew, Leah, and the whole team.

Thank you Dare to Dream!!!

Andrea from Dare To Dream is INCREDIBLE

Andrea Thompson was our wedding planner in Lake Las Vegas. She was completely attentive and on top of EVERYTHING. She had to deal with A LOT with our wedding when it comes to dealing with other vendors, and maybe even myself. Our wedding could not have been more perfect, ALL THANKS TO ANDREA!!! Thank you so so much for everything you did for us!

Best decision ever!

I found Dare to Dream by chance when I realized I could not, in fact, plan a wedding myself. From the first call, I felt so good about my choice. The team was fantastic but I simply cannot say enough about Ebony. It’s not an exaggeration to say that my wedding would not have been what it was without her. She saved us time, she saved us money, she saved us headaches. She was proactive, detailed, and efficient. Best of all, she put my mind at ease every time I started to spin out! If you are deciding whether or not you need to hire Dare to Dream, you do. And if you are lucky enough to get connected to Ebony, I know you’ll be as thrilled to have her on your team as I was.

The GOAT of All Businesses

First and foremost, I want to thank Leah and her amazing staff once more. They planned and carried out the most amazing and memorable day of my life! My girlfriend proposed that we meet with vendors in person before signing a contract. (This is something that every newlywed couple should do!) I'm grateful I did this because Leah was the only one who made time to meet us at the time.

We knew she was the one as soon as we met her. She was incredibly down to earth and understood the cultural and religious aspects we needed for our wedding. Her passion and professionalism are unparalleled. Another advantage is that she is Filipino and understands the relationships between families.

Throughout the entire process, she assisted with decor, dj, emcee, timeline, and photography, floral, and she always made sure we had the last say and our support. There were several moments when I was distressed or frustrated (not because of DTD or Leah), and she was always there to answer/text and help me sort it all out.

I could go on and on about how much Leah means to me and my family, but her work speaks for itself. She's been in the game for a long time, and she truly has a heart of gold when it comes to making sure her customers have a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Thank you, Leah and your crew, for fulfilling my childhood dreams and giving the best wedding ever! *quotes from relatives and friends* lol.

Backyard Wedding

OMG where do I began! Leah was our wedding planner and Ebony was her assistant. They were BEYOND AMAZING! Leah is the person I communicated with the most. She answered me at all times of the day and night. She didn't put a limit on our communication. We are from out of state. She allowed me to have things shipped to her as well. She was a life saver. I had a previous wedding planner and she canceled a few months prior to our wedding without a refund. Leah offered me a discount for her services, another life saving moment. I was super stressed. She definitely helped me destress and allowed me to vent! Ebony, her assistant she was awesome as well. Together they made our dreams come true. These ladies are VERY VERY GOOD at their jobs. Our day was amazing. They are passionate about their work. If I could give them 10 stars I would. I could write a book about our wedding day. Thank you thank you for EVERYTHING. If you are looking for a wedding planner look no more you have found the perfect vendor Dare to Dream! The server Yvette helped as well. She picked up appetizers for us. Osiris was our bartender. Both the server and bartender was great as well. Everyone was so helpful and ready to serve us and make it about us. Ebony is hilarious! She is also fun, she even showed us how to do one of the lion dances! She did great at kid control and pushing the DJ to play what we wanted. Big thanks to Leah, Ebony, Yvette and O (bartender)!! I've posted the pics I have from others. However I will have more detailed pics later!

2/22 wedding

Leah and her crew were amazing in everything. They helped setup all the vendors for us so we didn’t have to do anything. They setup the whole reception top to bottom and made sure it was perfect. We honestly couldn’t of asked for a better wedding planner to help with our special day. Anything we asked they made happen!
