Wonderful wedding planner!

Annette and her team are amazing! Not many planners in the area were doing just day-of coordination anymore so we went with the partial planning services. Even before we officially contracted with her, Annette was offering advice as if we were her own kids. You can tell she is so genuine and kind. Annette was with us from the beginning and helped to recommend potential vendors. She also attended all our floral and tasting appointments with us, which was super helpful because she had a great relationship with those vendors already and knew the right questions to ask. She has a great eye for design and really understands your inspiration as well. We were planning our wedding from long distance (NorCal to SoCal) so it was great having Annette along the way to keep us organized and on track too. We would have weekly calls in the month leading up to the wedding. On the day of our wedding, everything went so smoothly and we didn't even worry at all about the logistics because Annette's team was taking care of everything and working hard behind the scenes. We are so grateful to Wheat & Honey and highly recommend!

Highly recommend Annette and her team!

I was referred to Wheat & Honey by my co-worker, and I am so glad that I was able to find Annette and her team! Annette is so experienced, professional, and knowledgeable about the wedding industry. Additionally, she is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She was always willing to listen to all of my wedding worries and concerns, and she was able to provide comfort and support for me the entire time. Annette was able to help recommend other wedding vendors for my team, and was instrumental in coordinating my day-of timeline. She was always available via text/call/email whenever I needed to communicate with her. She went with me to do a walk-through of our venue a few months before the big day to map out where everything would go, helped coordinate our shuttle service, and also went with me to check out napkins. On the actual wedding day, Annette and her team were a dream to work with. I literally had nothing to worry about - they took care of everything all day. Everything was seamless and on time. She made sure that my husband and I were fed :) and helped to make sure that everything stayed on schedule throughout the night based on the timeline that we created together. I am so grateful to Annette and her team for helping to create the most magical day and making my wedding dream a reality. I highly recommend choosing Annette to be your wedding planner! You will not be disappointed!

Hire them1 you won't be sorry!

Annette planned our son's wedding--and I couldn't have been more pleased! She kept the bride and groom on track, making the controlling mothers (me included) able to relax and enjoy the wedding. She and her staff were like ninjas-magically appearing when needed but not obtrusive. The whole staff is really a pleasure to work with.

An incredible team

Katie and her team were an absolute joy to work with. I'm a wedding photographer so I work with a lot of different planners, and Katie did such a fantastic job! She ran the entire day smoothly and communicated efficiently with all the vendors. Her team was so sweet and treated my client so well. They are a must-hire!

Fantastic coordination!

Annette went above and beyond her “day of” coordination responsibilities and was an amazing source of knowledge for me throughout the wedding planning process. She was always quick with vendor recommendations and opinions, and thought of all the little details I never would have thought of. Everything day of went smoothly because of her, and my now husband and I couldn’t have been happier we went with wheat and honey! She is also super sweet and calm, which is great when wedding emotions are running high! Thank you Annette for making our day so great!

Highly recommend this team!

I worked mostly with Annette and let me just say she is wonderful. She had a way of making sure there was little stress throughout the whole process. She helped me make decisions, met with vendors with me, recommended great vendors when I wasn't sure where to even start. And on the day of she made everything go off without a hitch. She was working hard behind the scenes at every turn to make sure we just had the best day of our lives and didn't worry about a thing. Highly recommend them!!

Annette and her team are truly first class!! They were their to help every step of the way. I was so happy to have a coordinator that attended meetings with me prior to the wedding. This was extremely helpful because on the day of the wedding she knew the exact style I was looking for. I can’t say enough amazing things about Annette.

We just loved working with Annette and her daughter Katie - she was so kind and supportive, and full of great advice. The day of, she made everything completely seamless! She also offered up some of her own items (table numbers etc) for us to borrow, which was an incredible help. Her pricing was also extremely competitive for the level of service she offers. It was a great decision to go with Wheat and Honey Events!

Wheat and Honey Events did an amazing job coordinating our wedding day. My husband and I got married at Quail Ranch in early May. Annette and Katie served as our day-of-coordinators, but they were always available to answer our questions and address our concerns in the months leading up to the wedding day. Annette and Katie are such sweethearts and they worked so hard to make our wedding day perfect. Everything went smoothly and my husband and I got to enjoy our day without any worries.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
