Lynn was professional, responsive, organized, and knowledgeable -- attributes that I would have hoped for and expected in a good wedding coordinator. But she also made several very astute suggestions that made a real difference in the day, and came to the rescue when things went awry. Her skills even extended to repairing a broken shoe with dental floss! She handled everything with poise, kept the event running smoothly without being overbearing, and was a reassuring presence throughout. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

This was one of the COVID affected weddings, and we had to re-do plans several time, with the wedding finally occurring May 2022. She was incredible - having everything perfectly lined up for April 2020, and then re-doing it all. Everything worked perfectly and the bride and groom were ecstatic. We can't thank Lynn enough for all she did for our family in creating this perfect wedding.

Lynn was an angel sent from above to work with us on our wedding day, and I can't recommend her enough! My husband and I were a COVID couple, and had to postpone our wedding a few times. We ended up having our wedding on the Monterey coast, and planned it in 2 1/2 months and Lynn helped us every step of the way. She was extremely organized, patient, and made us feel taken care of the whole process. On our wedding day, she was that extra support that we needed and couldn't have done without. She was cool, calm and collected which in turn made me feel like I could totally sit back and enjoy the day. I didn't have to worry about ONE thing since I knew Lynn had everything under control.
Prior to the wedding, we did a walk through of the venue and went over all the details in person which was SO helpful. There's so much that goes on behind the scenes of planning a wedding that I had no idea about, and Lynn was a seasoned pro that I was able to fully trust.
So many of our family and guests came up to me and said how great of a job Lynn did and I enthusiastically said "oh my goodness I know! Thank God Lynn was with us through this process and on our wedding day!". She got SO many compliments!! It was such an honor and a blessing that we had Lynn as our coordinator.

I had the most wonderful experience working with Lynn at Duke & Pearl for day-of-coordinating for my wedding in Carmel Valley (Holman Ranch). Everything went very smoothly and successfully. Lynn is very professional and experienced, and she went out of her way to even buy us an extra table linen and candles when she sensed we were missing them last-minute. She and her assistant were on top of everything and were essential in executing our wedding day. I didn't have to do any work day-of! I would not hesitate to work with Lynn and Duke & Pearl, and I highly recommend her and her team! No need to think twice or look for other coordinators! Her service as also affordable and good value, and she was happy to help to achieve a successful event, even beyond traditional coordinator activities.

Though our initial plan was to coordinate our wedding ourselves, we were encouraged by our other vendors to hire a coordinator and we are so glad we listened! Lynn was amazing. She relieved us of so much - not only the day of the wedding, but also the weeks leading up to the event. Her attention to the little details and invaluable input made the day perfect and exactly how we envisioned it.

Everything was made so easy which allowed us (and our family and friends) to completely enjoy the day. In fact, many of our guests commented on how relaxed we appeared during the entire weekend....hiring Lynn was the best decision we made during our entire wedding!

Lynn was a fantastic coordinator that allowed our wedding day to run without an issue.

I used Lynn and her team as my Day-Of Coordinators, and couldn't have asked for a smoother wedding! Everything was so well planned that we found ourselves having extra time to take photos and grab a cocktail with friends and family after the ceremony. The whole day was thought out, well planned, and beautifully executed. I had a lot of complicated family dynamics to sort out, and I appreciated it when Lynn reminded me of what to focus on so that I fully enjoyed my day. I couldn't recommend Duke and Pearl highly enough - they are fabulous!

From first to last meeting and since our event, Lynn was a joy to work with. We are so incredibly grateful to have had her calming presence & creative, flexible skills on a day that could have been stressful. She was three steps ahead of everything on our big day & we sailed along behind her having the time of our lives. It sounds almost too good to be true, but Lynn honestly felt like the fairy godmother of our wedding! Right down to "bibbitty bobbity booing" a bustle for my wedding dress at the last moment!

Lynn is SO professional, yet very warm and easy to communicate with. The other vendors loved her also, which made for a smooth and fun collaboration. She is mind bogglingly organized, sees the event from all angles, and simply made it a seamless lovely day for all of us!

Thanks to Lynn and her crew for making my wedding go so smooth and making my wedding vision come to live. During planning Lynn asked a lot of good questions to make sure that she fully understands the vision of the wedding. She kept in touch with all the vendors before the wedding to keep track of the timeline. She also was super helpful during the rehearsal walking us and the wedding party through the ceremony. She is very patient, didn't mind having to repeat few rounds of rehearsal, and made sure everyone gets it. On the wedding day, Lynn and her crew arrived early to help set up and Lynn was the last person to leave the venue. She helped us packing all the decor and leftover drinks back to our car. She was very organized and clean. I don't think I could have gone over the wedding without her! I would recommend her to anyone!
