Best wedding planner ever!

Working with Candice was by far the easiest and best working relationship either of us have ever had. She was always readily available for questions and concerns. She is highly knowledgeable in the wedding industry and has great relationships with the vendors. She is a great listener (mind reader level) and was able to help us narrow down multiple selections. She was able to help us stay on budget. Not only did she design our dream wedding but she also executed it flawlessly. Our wedding weekend was truly a dream come true thanks to Candice. We highly recommend her and her team and are sad that we don't have an excuse to talk to her as much!

Dream Wedding Thanks to Candice!

I could not have had the wedding of my dreams without Candice (nor would I have wanted to)! From the moment I met Candice I knew I was in great hands, and she did not disappoint. With each step of the wedding planning process, Candice went above and beyond to ensure everything went as smooth as possible and exceeded my expectations through it all. Not only is Candice so lovely to communicate with, but she is also great at listening to your wants and needs and executes them in a way that is timely and very detailed oriented. I truly feel so honored to have had Candice as my wedding planner. She will share your vision, bring it to life, and get just as excited for your big day as you are.

The Best!!!

We could not have asked for a better experience! Candice was an absolute joy to work with and extremely easy to contact. She was with us every step of the way from first conversation to choosing vendors to making sure everything was set up correctly day of! We are from out of state and had no knowledge of what vendors to use. Candice was extremely helpful with providing us with multiple options and making sure each vendor was on top of everything. We would recommend her to anyone looking to have a California wedding, but we would especially recommend her for those who are out of state or not familiar with the area.

Excellent to work with!

I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Candice at several weddings. The care and attention to detail she puts in to each wedding is incredible. Candice really goes the extra mile to make sure everyone and everything is taken care of and it shows in the results for the bride and groom. She is a joy to work with and she creates is an environment of ease and celebration. I highly recommend hiring her as your wedding planner!

Perfect day!

I wouldn't expect our wedding day to be any smoother, thanks to Candice! We really appreciate your efforts. Steve and I had a blast! We both were very relaxed for the whole journey and had the time of our lives! Very responsive and professional.

The best day ever

I booked Candice as my Day Of Coordinator and let me just say how awesome she was. She did an amazing job on setting up everything and was super flexible. She managed all the curve balls at the wedding -- unexpected guests, changing time of toasts and lots of other things I am sure I didn't know because she handled them efficiently and seamlessly. So thankful I decided to get a coordinator.

Attentive and creative

Candice brought my wedding vision to life! She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding day was exceptional by jumping in to help the caterers serve food when they were short staffed. She is the best
