Annette and her team are top notch, We cannot think of one thing we would change she handled everything for us and made our reception experience awesome! You could not find a better co-ordinator. She listened to and answered all of our questions quickly and completely, always with a genuine smile, and very professional and organized. We just can't say enough about how happy we are with the wedding reception.

Amazing Wedding Planner - Must Book!

Annette was an amazing wedding planner! Being that I'm not from Temecula, I wasn't familiar with all the venues, vendors, etc out there. Annette certainly knows her way around Temecula and referred nothing but the best vendors based off of my husband and I's personalities. Annette went above and beyond as my wedding planner from attending the vendor meetings, walk throughs, our timeline, rehearsal, tons of phone calls, questions and sooo much more. I definitely wasn't the easiest bride as I'm extremely indecisive and Annette helped me make decisions! She has a keen eye for wedding design, excellent time management skills and a calmness about her that helps us brides :). Not only was she extremely helpful prior to the wedding but she really showed her true colors the day of. I even had our hair and makeup ladies mention that they had never in their time seen a wedding planner do so much work or miss a beat from literally steaming all my 8 bridesmaids dresses, to my wedding dress, cathedral veil and much more. Everyone referred to her as Mary Poppins because she literally had everything we needed; she even helped sew my sisters dress that day! I came with a lot of ideas and a vision and on the day of our wedding, Annette definitely helped bring it to life! She truly is a professional and one of the best and her #1 goal is to make sure you are happy! I ensure you to utilize Annette for your wedding planning services and you will not be disappointed.

Annette went well beyond our expectations. She was always steps ahead of me and always had the answer, solution, new idea, etc. Professionalism to the max!
When I popped a button and needed a safety pin - she had it; when I explained my hopes in the quality and presentation of the food - she brought us the perfect chef; after meeting Bill and I and hearing our 'story' - she matched us with the most ideal Pastor to marry us and gave us the perfect ceremony! She had her finger on the pulse of our event and delivered magnificently! I would highly recommend her with five stars!

We always said Annette was worth her weight in gold, and she is! We hired Annette right after we booked a newer Temecula wine country venue. We were impressed with her reputation in the wedding planning community, her familiarity with all the vendors, and her experience with cross-cultural weddings. She was our go-between with our venue after we booked it. She managed all the vendors we booked (we had over 16!). She ordered the speciality linens for us. She made little custom flower petal cups. She worked with us on the satin napkin fold! EVERY little small detail was an important detail to Annette. She was also flexible in our change in vision. When we booked, we wanted a more rustic look. By the wedding, my Husband and I wanted glam and she executed it perfectly. She kept our expectations in check but she never hesitated in making our vision come to life, with budget considerations in mind. We met with Annette in person countless times, at her home office, at the venue, and we had multiple phone conversations. I am embarrassed to say if I type "Annette" in my email inbox, dozens & dozens of emails come up. I emailed her so much and she always responded promptly and never made me feel silly. She also got us industry discounts on upgrades we decided we wanted such as glass gold beaded chargers. She kept us sane and she was our advocate! My husband told me that when my florist called 2-3 weeks before the wedding that she should not get ANY peonies, he called Annette and worked with her to put in my bouquet - It was the best surprise! Her #1 priority was making us happy and we could see that everyday. She handled our wedding timeline and rehearsal. She set up the tables and prepped it for the florist. On the wedding morning, she came and steamed every bridesmaids dress and my veil and dress! She did EVERYTHING for us seamlessly and effortlessly. She also brought an assistant. I have no more space to write, so I'll just say this - BOOK HER!!

I had the pleasure of working with Annette recently at a wedding in Temecula. As a wedding professional myself, I really appreciate working with other pros who keep the wedding couple's vision a top priority and Annette does that and so much more. She, along with her assistant, do such a great job of preparing and planning that the wedding day can't help but run smoothly. And she also understands the flexibility that's absolutely required to adjust to the inevitable on the fly changes that happen at every wedding. Our wedding couple was extremely happy with the way Annette kept everything flowing all day and evening. She's simply one of the best planners I've ever worked with. And I've worked with literally hundreds of them. I enthusiastically recommend Annette and can't wait to work with her again.

Wonderful!

There are only so many words I can write about Annette, because she left me speechless ! Wedding planning is stressful enough, so Annette was so wonderful about absolutely everything. She is top caliber. She helped us decide how to make our wedding day perfect and honestly I don’t think we could have done it without her. She made everything so smooth, was great with phone and email communication and kept us on track when we were struggling. She helped us coordinate a wedding while remotely in another state. Annette helped us feel way less stressed about our wedding. I would pay anything to have her again. Thank you for everything you did for us, we are truly grateful!

Annette is a very gifted, organized, and thoughtful planner. I swear she's like Mary Poppins - she brings everything and the kitchen sink, just to make sure that your big day is pulled off FLAWLESSLY and nothing is overlooked. She had everything from safety pins to 'reserved' signs with her on my wedding day! Because of her efficiency, and her attentiveness to how my husband and I wanted our big day to go, there was not a single mishap or issue the entire day...at least that I knew of! Everything ran on time, smoothly, and seamlessly because of her hard work and attention to detail. It was an absolute relief to have her there - she's worth every penny! I can happily say that my wedding day was absolutely perfect - and because of her, that's exactly how I'll remember it. I cannot thank her enough! Annette, you're AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Annette and her staff are fantastic! I appreciate her ability to bring a couple's vision to life, her attention to detail, and relationships with venues and vendors. She is the most connected planner I know.

Annette is a top of the line professional! As an officiant, I have worked with her on several weddings/vow renewals and she ALWAYS has everything well in hand. On the day of the ceremony, the entire bridal party, and especially the bride, all feel comfortable and less anxious because they are in her capable hands. She gracefully keeps everyone on a smooth timeline and effortlessly ensures everyone--family, vendors and venue are all on the same page. MY job as officiant is so much easier because I know the bride will be ready on time, the DJ is there and all set-up, and working with Annette, there are never unhappy surprises. On top of all this, she is the President of the Temecula Valley Wedding Professionals Association (I'm a member) and every event is well-choreographed by her and her team. I cannot recommend Annette highly enough...but don't take my word for it, contact her yourself and you'll be delighted by all she'll do for you!
