Curated by Grace + White

We just had our wedding this past weekend and I'm compelled to write a review for Carrie. She was our DOC and really was so instrumental in our perfect wedding day. Throughout the whole planing process, she's been extremely responsive, organized, and reliable. She took over all of our vendor communication in the final weeks leading up to our wedding and made things super easy for us. We had a few small mishaps on the day of our wedding, and she handled them calmly and efficiently like they were no big deal at all. I went to a wedding recently where the wedding planner was running around like the place was on fire for no good reason, that stressed me out even though I was just a bridesmaid! So I really appreciated Carrie's easygoing and relaxed attitude, like she knew the day was gonna go perfectly from the beginning. if the other planners at Curated by Grace and White are anything like Carrie, I would highly recommend them with no reservations!

We worked with Mary from Curated by Grace + White and we tell everyone we possibly can that it was the best decision we made for our wedding. I don't even know where to start on how amazing she was to work with. We were originally scheduled to get married in May of 2020 and had to postpone MULTIPLE times and Mary saved the day in getting all of our vendors moved and working with the venue to accommodate the shifts. Beyond the scheduling, she understood the type of day and vibe we wanted and helped us find the best vendors at the right price and could help us navigate what would make the most impact to our guests and creating the day we wanted. The price of the planning was reasonable to begin with, but when you consider how they help you find vendors within your budget the service essentially paid for itself. Mary was so fun to work with through the whole process and helped us so much in being the sounding board to make decisions. She really got to know us and the type of day we were looking for. When it came to the actual wedding day, I was blown away by the team. Their attention to detail, the way they took care of our guests and family, and made sure the party was fun and kept going (not to mention, on schedule) was unparalleled. They took care of so many little things that we never would have been able to do on our own that made it memorable for our guests. After waiting 2+ years for the big day I worried it wouldn't measure up in my head but it was even better than I could have imagined thanks to having a great planner. I truly can not say enough good things.

Sara and her team at Curated by Grace and White went above and beyond and came through for us when we needed it most - you will be so glad you decided to go with her! We got married April 2022 in Napa and it was the best day ever. Just a few things she helped us with through our 12 months together:
-Great organization/note taking - this was very key as our venue was difficult to deal with and not very detail oriented. Sara was able to correct any inaccuracies quickly and kept everything on track.
-Vision - Sara was able to interpret the ideas of our dream wedding day. Every wedding is unique and we had a very specific vision. Sara was so collaborative throughout the vendor selection and gave us a thorough checklist of all the small details.
-Day of issues - Sara will handle EVERYTHING on your wedding day; she did stuff we didn't even know about until after the wedding that honestly averted a few crises that were caused by our venue. She also drove us around in her car to all the places for photos so we didn't have to rely on anyone else. It is hard to put into words just how much she helps and how hard she works for her clients throughout the journey but especially on the wedding day.
-She handled all the vendor interaction on the wedding day and made sure everything was set up correctly and even made last minute changes that enhanced the entire experience.
-Sara helped talk us through some issues we had with other vendors throughout the planning process and provided guidance and empathy to get through the stressful parts of planning a wedding.

Sara is also just a great human being and we felt so lucky to have here - honestly having someone you trust running the show on your wedding day is key and Sara is absolutely worth it! Besides the essential day of services that her team provided, we cannot express how much she helped us the months leading up. Let's face it, planning a wedding can be stressful and Sara was able to help with all the nerves.

We are sad the wedding is over because we don't get to interact with her anymore - book her and the team at Curated by Grace and White; you won't regret it! From the bottom of our heart, thank you Sara for making our dream wedding a reality!
