Big Bear July 2024 Wedding

Hiring Merrie with Silver and Sage was the best thing we could have done for our wedding! She was timely, efficient, and so helpful with her day of coordinating for our wedding.

From the start, she was extremely prepared and went above and beyond my expectations. She was ready with questions that I didn’t even know I didn’t know! Her attention to detail made everything run so smoothly the day of the wedding. She was the first there and the last to leave, and did not hesitate to be the “bad guy” when someone/something needed to be redirected or fixed.

We had a bit of a hiccup with our venue (our of our control), but Merrie was calm, professional, and did everything to not only resolve the issue, but ensure us that no matter what, our wedding would still be perfect. Her communication was very quick, and she had many amazing ideas that I would have never considered.
 She checked in with us throughout the wedding process and the day of in case we needed anything as little as a glass of water, to as much as changing something at the last minute because we changed our minds.

I would 100% recommend Silver and Sage to anyone looking for wedding planning/day of coordinating services. I can NOT imagine our wedding being as amazing as it was without her help and guidance.

Amazing Day of Planner and Officiant

Merrie and her team were exceptional! They truly helped make our day seamless and we were able to fully enjoy it without any stress. We used Silver and Sage for our Day of Wedding planner, as well as our Officiant. Merrie wrote the most beautiful ceremony that truly reflected our relationship. We were both very touched by how she captured us and our love and was able to translate that into words. The entire team was just fantastic, and they really took care of everything.

Very highly recommended

Merrie is truly client centered, clearly loves what she does, stays on top of the vendors, and is 10-steps ahead the entire time.

Despite everything from extreme weather to minute logistical details, to last-minute vendor changes, Merrie quickly adapted, finding alternative solutions that kept our wedding on track.

Merrie, Chris, Georgia, and Marissa were highly proactive, engaged, and efficient on the day of. They ensured everything ran smoothly, even when we faced day-of cooperation issues with the venue. Their calm demeanor and problem-solving skills turned potential stress into seamless execution.

When selecting a day-of coordinator we also wanted to prioritize our guests, ensuring that they were taken care of and could focus on enjoying themselves. Silver & Sage made that possible and went above and beyond to make our wedding an incredible guest experience.

Thanks to the hard work and dedication from Merrie and her team our wedding day was not only beautiful but was simply magical.

I highly recommend Silver & Sage to any couple looking to make their dream wedding a reality, no matter the challenges!

Incredible Wedding Planners & Coordinators

I absolutely loved working with Merrie, Kailey, and Ashlyn at Silver and Sage. They are seasoned professionals with so much experience. It was so reassuring to have them by my side in the planning process and on my wedding day. They took on every task with calming kindness, ran the show seamlessly, and were always first to jump in when extra help was needed. I had a very DIY wedding at an airbnb, and they were able to take on so much responsibility with ease. I would not have been able to do it without them. I would highly recommend this company for your wedding needs!

We loved working with Merrie and her team! They were attentive, responsive, and helpful every step of the way. Absolutely no complaints, and couldn't recommend Merrie and her team any higher. A day of coordinator is so important for all the little things that can and will go wrong the day of. We had such peace of mind knowing that her team had our backs the whole night! And for a really great price!
