Couldn't have done it without Satra!

We had are wedding at Villa Montalvo in June 2021. When we booked the venue the venue's first and strongest vendor recommendation was to hire Events by Satra for planning. It was by far the best decision we made! Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives, everything went so smoothly and turned out so beautifully! From our first call, I felt calmer! Satra helped us pick out all of our other vendors and every recommendation she gave was perfect. Particularly on things we didn't have strong opinions about like flowers and the DJ and those were some of the best parts of the day! We booked our date and started planning before the pandemic hit and were able to keep the original date with the original guest count for which we were incredibly lucky. We still had a lot of stress with the uncertainty with the pandemic. Satra was so calming and went above and beyond. She researched on-site Covid testing vendors and coordinated with the DJ to do virtual streaming of our ceremony. I also didn't have a ton of opinions about the details and I knew I could trust her opinions like the linens (she matched my bridesmaids perfectly!). She also had a great eye for the things that are worth doing like the lounge furniture (which looked amazing and the guests loved!) versus the things that no one notices (like a photo gallery in the library that most people wouldn't see). If you are on the fence at all, I'm telling you it's worth it!

Satra handled EVERYTHING so that we could enjoy our amazing day.

Satra was an INCREDIBLE coordinator for our wedding. We hired her not just for day-of, but for month-of, which was awesome. In our kickoff meeting with her (she had done a ton of weddings at our venue and also knew almost all of our vendors), we talked about my vision for the wedding, she asked us for all our vendor info, we agreed on a timeline, and after that... BLISS. We didn't have to do ANYTHING. I remember so clearly the moment at our kickoff meeting when Satra smiled, looked me in the eyes and said, "You don't need to be taking notes on any of this - I'm going to handle all of it." After a year and a half of wedding planning, sweeter words could not have been spoken to me. And she was right - she handled all of it. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, if my stepmom or my fiance's mom or a vendor or the venue or anyone else had questions or concerns, I said, "Talk to Satra!" There were a ton of email threads between Satra and our family members, vendors, etc. that I didn't even read, because I didn't need to. At the rehearsal and on the wedding day, nobody from our families or the wedding party asked me anything about where to be or when to go there or what to do, because Satra had already prepped them.

I should also point out that we had an Indian fusion wedding, which was... complicated. Lots of moving parts. Satra dealt with all of it.

It seems like a small thing, but one of my biggest concerns leading up to the wedding was that my walk down the aisle would be timed appropriately. The song I'd chosen needed to play for all nine of my bridesmaids and also for my dad and I during the processional, and there was a specific moment in the song that I wanted to match up with the moment my dad and I appeared walked down the aisle. I was terrified that the bridesmaids wouldn't be paced appropriately
and that specific part of the song would happen before my dad and I started walking down the aisle, or that the song would end before my dad and I reached the altar. I had a mild freak-out moment when the bridesmaids were walking down the aisle and asked Satra if everything was timed correctly, and she showed me her phone - she'd created a countdown timer that was perfectly configured to the timing I'd requested. Everything went perfectly.

I should stop rambling, but I'd like to make one final point - Satra has the calmest, most soothing energy. She is the perfect antidote to wedding anxiety. She tells you she'll handle it, and she absolutely will. If my wedding was like every other wedding in the history of weddings, I'm pretty sure there were like a million little crises that happened, but I did not and will never know about them, because Satra was there to handle everything.

The first time I met with Satra regarding my big day, we immediately connected. She made me feel extremely comfortable and relaxed. When I had questions, she always responded right away and provided different options for my needs based on my budget. During the rehearsal, I was able to leave my table numbers, menus and favors at the location so that I did not have to haul them around on my big day. When I arrived at the location on the big day, I was surprised to see that the reception was completely set up by Satra. I had no idea that she was going to set up everything for us. She definitely went above and beyond. Throughout the entire reception, she always came by to check up on my husband and I. She wanted to make sure we had everything we needed and that the night was going according to plan.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Satra. All brides worry about everything that could go wrong on your wedding day but with Satra helping me, I knew that everything was going to be fine. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a coordinator.
Thank you so much for everything Satra!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Satra is one of the sweetest souls in this industry. She is an amazing coordinator and builds lots of trust with her couples. I love working with her because she executes clients visions without being bold or bossy, and with the deft hand of a skilled negotiator. We've worked together a handful of times and each event leaves me feeling calm and collected and complete, which can't be said for all event coordinators out there. If you are looking for someone to calm your nerves, assure you she's got everything handled (cause she does!) than this is your lady!

We have worked with Satra for over 10 years. We originally met her when she was the event manager for a local venue. You could tell she had the eye for design and the passion to make things great for couples on their wedding day. She started her business and has taken her game to another level. Very impressive.
