Absolutely the Best!

Michelle was absolutely a dream to work with! As soon as I requested information for our wedding, Michelle got back to me ASAP. We had easy communication via email and phone and she made the services offered and price quotes very easy to understand. Let me tell you when I say, Michelle and her team are THE BEST in Southern California (honestly probably the entire planet)!. She is worth it to make the biggest day of your life AMAZING. She is extremely professional, provides the best wedding advice, and is willing to put you in contact with other wedding professionals in the area. I am so thankful I found Michelle – no one else compares!

Cara is your wedding best friend!

I cannot imagine planning a wedding without Cara, she is a complete master! We booked Michelle Garibay over a year in advance of our wedding and Cara supported us throughout the entire planning process. She had honest and helpful advice and she is full of ideas and resources. Our wedding was at Temecula Creek Inn and Cara coordinates with them SEAMLESSLY!! I got so much reassurance knowing that Cara worked so well with them. She helped us replace a vendor when one of them went out of business, she suggested design elements that helped elevate our decor, and importantly she told me what was NOT worth it or not needed. She kept me very grounded. 

In addition to being an experienced professional who is highly organized and responsive, she also has a very friendly and relaxed demeanor which was helpful to balance some of my nervousness. She provided reassurance that we were on track throughout our planning. She also got along with all of our family members and helped make them a part of the process as well. 

One of the things that I found most touching is that she makes you *feel* like a bride and the most special person. She took a lot of work off our plate so that we could enjoy the days leading up the the wedding. She kept reminding us "You don't have to worry about that, I will take care of it." I may have a Type A personality but I had so much confidence handing everything over to Cara. She really allowed us to enjoy every moment :) 

On the day of our wedding, I was completely speechless about how beautifully everything came together and I know that it took a lot of hard work from Cara to make it happen. We are deeply grateful for all her time and expertise and giving us so many sweet memories

Outstanding

I could not have asked for a better planner for my wedding. From our very first conversation, i immediately felt so comfortable with her, like you would talk to a family member with. I felt like i had known her forever. I had met with other planners and they were so stiff and all about the event, Michelle took the time to ask about our engagement story, my son, our family. Everything i had imagined my wedding day would be like came true and more! I had the opportunity to work with the wedding queen herself, Michelle Garibay, and i have to say i am so blessed to have had her. I never had to ask her if things were being handled, she emailed me with details as needed to not overwhelm me and answered all my questions so fast. On the day of, she kept me so calm and i was so assured everything was going to go off without a hitch having her with me. If there was anything that went wrong i certainly did not hear about it and have not found out till this day. I was able to focus on myself that day and not have to worry about anything, which is how it should be for every bride.
