Jennifer Sent on 09/26/2024Our BEST investment ...
Anita was our best investment for our vow renewal. Initially, my husband and I thought we could handle everything ourselves for our small event. A friend wisely advised against this, leading us to seek coordinators. After meeting Anita, one of our venue’s preferred vendors, we knew she was the right choice—her five-star reviews were well-deserved! We met with a few others before deciding to book with her and what swayed us over was how genuine she was, and how there was this unspoken confidence about her in making our vision come to life (which now after the fact can confidently say that she exceeded way beyond our wildest dreams). It’s crazy to think that we booked Anita a little over a month before our wedding! There are so many things I could say …
- Anita asked insightful questions with things we didn’t even consider (but were necessary). This spoke into her many years of experience in the industry
- Every element of our wedding was executed to perfection. She even added elements on the day of into our decoration that were the finishing touches we needed!
- I wanted an elegant, intimate, and cozy vibes. Every single detail was executed perfectly from the dimming of the lights to the grand reveal of our ceremony to the presentation, etc.
- For our beach ceremony, she recommended the absolute best florist for our floral arch. Despite the wind, the arch held perfectly—trust her vendor recommendations; they are top-notch! We spent so much time (which wasn’t factored into our time) at the arch after the ceremony because it was so grand and beautiful!
- With my non-traditional work schedule, Anita was always accommodating, meeting with me at odd hours and providing unwavering support throughout the planning process.
I have never felt this completely at ease letting go of control to someone I had just met. She allowed us to fully enjoy our day, constantly reassuring us that everything would be fine—and it truly was magical.
If you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding coordinator, invest in one! And if you’re in between a few coordinators like we were initially, trust us and choose Anita - you won’t regret it. Her five-star reviews genuinely reflect her exceptional work ethic and execution. Thank you, Anita, from the bottom of our hearts—we couldn’t have done this without you!A STARR Events's reply:
Jennifer! It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and your hubby! I'm so happy you found me, thank you for trusting and allowing me to take the helm on your special day...
I had to giggle at the "odd hours" reference..we are night owls working in two different industries yet we worked perfectly together!
Thank you for your kind words, I love what I do and adore watching my couples laugh, dance and remain present during every moment of their wedding day.
I will miss our chats and hope to keep in touch! You have made memories and a friend in Monterey Bay so please let me know when you plan another trip to the coast.
Much love to you and hubby, I wish you all the best!
XOXO, Anita -

Raquel Sent on 09/21/2024The BEST planner ever!
A STARR Events did such an amazing job coordinating my wedding day! I hired her for her day-off wedding coordinating services at Chaminade Resort and Spa in Santa Cruz, CA. Her services were much needed for a bride like myself that was in need of someone to make sure I wasn't worried and stressed about the wedding day. Anita was beyond incredible by providing me a wedding planning checklist and day-off document to make sure I had everything altogether and something that she had used for the wedding day. She's so knowledgeable and understands the wedding industry so well, that I felt extremely comfortable and confident that she would bring my wedding day vision to life. Anita was able to keep in contact with all our other vendors and helped facilitate their arrival, departure, and positions for the wedding day. I would recommend Anita and A STARR Events to every bride in need of coordinating services. Thank you Anita for all you've done in making my wedding day memorable and breathtaking! xoxo The Summers -

Our wedding day was everything I could have dreamed of and more. Everything went according to plan all because of Anita’s execution. Her communication and knack for detail are unmatched. From every small detail to managing all the personal decor strike, Anita made the day simple and seamless for me, my husband and our families. She ensured everything happened on time, all the vendors were in sync and that everything was where it needed to be. We could not have made a better choice for a wedding planner. Thank you, Anita! -

Christina Sent on 07/16/2024Dream team for an enjoyable wedding day full of love!
Working with Anita made everything easy, enjoyable and so beyond gorgeous. Anita was an amazing communicator from well before the wedding day, so it's no surprise that day-of Anita and her team were on top of everything and at the same time set the tone for the day to be fun and carefree for everyone involved. As a photographer, it's rare to find a planner so steadfast, upbeat and also have the day go so smoothly so that the couple can truly focus 100% on the love around them and I can maximize creative moments. Thank you for making the day so wonderful! -

Katina Sent on 04/07/2023Outstanding Wedding Planner: Kind, Professional, & Attentive
Anita was a phenomenal wedding planner. From start to finish, she was supportive every step of the way. She has excellent resources that she provides brides with- I opted to do a partial plan since our wedding was on the smaller side and she provided excellent advice and tips on booking vendors, making invitations, etc. Anita met with me at my venue on multiple occasions so that we could really make sure my vision came to life. I felt supported and at ease in my planning process because I knew I had her support. She also connected me with the BEST vendors. She truly knows the best people in the business and has amazing relationships with them. Another thing that really stood out to me about Anita is her warmth; she really and truly wants you and your significant other to have the best day possible. I can't even begin to explain how valuable her presence was during the wedding weekend itself. She provided excellent advice and assistance at the rehearsal and made sure that all of the furniture and heaters that were dropped off at the venue arrived safely (she also got me a discount on the furniture rental!) On the day of my wedding she took control of everything with the vendors and the hotel. I was able to get ready and enjoy myself instead of worrying about vendor coordination, timelines, etc. She also made an effort to really get to know my husband and I throughout the process and helped me come up with little ideas to highlight aspects of our cultures at the reception. I've attended 14 weddings between 2022-2023 including my own, and I've been a bridesmaid in 6 of those weddings. I have really been able to see different styles of wedding planners and what it's like to work with a planner through my friends, and I can say with the utmost confidence that Anita is the best of the best!A STARR Events's reply:
Katina & Joseph!
Wow, fourteen weddings? YOU are the pro here and I am honored that you are calling me the “best of the best”...I’ll take it!
It was an absolute pleasure working with and getting to know you & Joseph! You were wonderful to work with and made the process look easy with your organizing skill level...little green (here) with your computer skills!
Thank YOU for meeting a couple of times at the wedding venue so we could work with the new special events team; I believe they appreciated our presence (in advance) since they came on board so close to your wedding.
Katina, you thought of everything; gift bags to welcome your special guests, signature drinks (huge hit), a bon fire rehearsal welcome event, & day after wedding brunch! Your wedding weekend was spectacular and your family enjoyed every minute of it!
Your February 19th wedding was my first of 2023 and what a fabulous way to start the wedding season off. Please share some photos of your beachside ceremony and the gorgeous sunset with me once you receive them! I would love to share on my website. Truly the best weather that day...Mother Earth was smiling down and blessing you two.
Five Stars to you & Joseph for feeding vendors an amazing dinner...we appreciate it!
Much love to you and Joseph as you begin your lives together as husband and wife, keep in touch and PLEASE let me know when you visit Monterey Bay... I’d love to connect for a visit!
Much Love, Anita

Maggie Sent on 11/27/2022#1 wedding coordinator!
If you're looking for a wedding planner....your search ends here. My husband and I were married in August this year and as much as I wanted to do everything on my own, things quickly became overwhelming. That's when I found Anita and she was an absolute lifesaver. Anita went up and beyond with absolutely everything. We had a terrible time with our venue coordinators coming and going within a few months of the wedding and Anita was the only constant through it all. As upset as I was getting with the venue, she was always calm and collected, and was the absolute best communicator. I have a type-A personality and her organization of the wedding day plans and rehearsal were amazing. She was always open to emails/texts/calls. She had recommendations and was never pushy with her opinion or advice. Her pricing is definitely reasonable and she has a few different planning options based on your needs. She checked in when appropriate and made sure things were going along with the schedule. On the rehearsal night, Anita was there on time and got my ginormous wedding party in line quickly! On the wedding day, Anita was everywhere. She had all our decorations in place exactly how I wanted them, and the entire day went flawlessly. I had so many family members and friends comment on how Anita was on top of everything the entire night. We didn't even have to worry about cleaning up, all of our stuff was packaged up and put away safely.
If you can't tell, we would absolutely recommend Anita for any event and are grateful for the work she put into our wedding!A STARR Events's reply:
Maggie!! We did it and did not skip a beat! I felt (from the moment we met) you knew exactly how you wanted your wedding day to unfold; perfection was always your vision and I couldn’t have been as successful without your organizing skills and vision.
We (from the beginning) were a tight team even though we were “thrown” a few curve balls (was it 3 venue personnel changes?) but in the end we kept our momentum up and thankfully Chaminade appointed an angel ( “Z” ) to assist us to the finish line…
You chose a beautiful venue in Santa Cruz and your wedding day was picture perfect…the sunset was so deserving of your hard work and unwavering investment to ensure you and Garrett would remember your wedding day forever! (Don’t forget to send me a sunset photo, it was spectacular!)
I must mention that your cousin created the most gorgeous centerpieces & her family (thankfully) were onsite to assist me with the table scape application…I am so grateful for Elizabeth and her team for helping to build the table decor, votive candles and mirrors take time to place and I couldn’t have don’t it without their help. Thank you Elizabeth!
Maggie & Garrett, I absolutely enjoyed working with you throughout the six months prior to your wedding. I wish you all the best life has to offer, please keep in touch with me!
You and Garrett should make a visit back to Monterey Bay and if so please connect with us…we would love to treat you to a wine tasting at our favorite spot in Carmel by the Sea!
Congratulations to you both and much love to your families! -

Tommy Sent on 07/07/2022The best in the business!
If you're looking for your day-of coordinator, look no further!!! Anita is a master at her skillset and amazing with clients and guests.
Also being in the industry, I've had the opportunity to work with different coordinators at different venues and I have not found a more detail oriented person than Anita. I can't speak more highly of her work. I honestly can't wait for the next opportunity we have to work together again soon!A STARR Events's reply:
Thank you so much, here we go again…2023 will be the busiest year yet!
I am so excited to work with you and your team at Joullian Vineyards as our next wedding season approaches…
I love the changes you have made and look forward to watching as the continued improvements take place on your gorgeous property!
You and your team make my job easy with your hard work; you are definitely the “yes” man and always give my clients everything they ask for…thanks for your patience and dedication to me, my clients and to Joullian Vineyards!
Thank you very much for continuing to mention A STARR Events to your engaged couples, I appreciate the opportunity to work with you year after year.

Janine Sent on 05/31/2022Every event needs an Anita Starr
I cannot stop thinking about how amazing our wedding day went a few days ago. I came to Anita near the end of my wedding planning when I began noticing some gray areas in my, what I thought, flawless game plan. I knew that gray areas would be a big question mark and risk come the day of, and did not want any surprises or inconveniences to us or our friends & families on the day of. We wanted to soak in the moments and enjoy the day. That’s when Anita was recommended to me.
Our wedding was not too far away, so I was surprised that Anita was available that weekend (a miracle that was meant to be!) She jumped into action and met me at the venue (which was quite a drive away from her) where she collected all the details and stomp stomp stomped on any tiny fire that was waiting to set our wedding ablaze. I thought I was organized.. but that day I was watching her in action in awe. I was literally like WHOA. All the stress I was feeling was immediately swept away and I could just finally breathe.
Anita shortly after sent me documents/checklists to make sure I was on track, given the wedding was coming up soon, and we slowly ticked away at the details. Her documents really helped streamline my plans from simply a vision to actual reality. On our final review she fine tuned the schedule and details with me over the phone and communicated with each of our vendors, MOH and best man.
All the while Anita was professional, respectful, knowledgeable, reliable, and very down to earth. I think I fell in love with her a little! Lol. My husband loved her and so did all of my other vendors. It really couldn't have gotten any better than that.
Finally, the wedding came. Napkins were tied flawlessly, tables arranged beautifully, signs were up with their decorative flair carefully placed…the room looked amazing. Whenever we needed something, Anita used her wedding spidey-sense, and was right there by our side. Checking in multiple times throughout the night. Helping when my bustle broke. Keeping us fed and hydrated. Coordinating with the dj and banquet manager behind the scenes. Making sure we stay on schedule…All. Of. The. Things.
To sum everything up, if you want peace of mind, to simply enjoy your wedding day, dance, eat, and just be in the moment with your partner, family & friends…Anita is the one!! -

Tracy Sent on 04/07/2022Saved Our Wedding!
Living in a different city from where we were getting married was, to be honest, incredibly difficult.
We visited Monterey a few times (always have loved it) and finally chose a venue for our beach wedding. We went through a couple of wedding planners who kept falling through or just completely forgot about us. We thought it may be a lost cause. When we found Anita from 'A Starr Events', when knew she was the one.
She stayed on top of everything and her detailed lists helped us feel more prepared, especially since we could only visit once a month. When there were issues with our venue, she stepped up to the plate and immediately dealt with it. Especially when we had issues with multiple florists just weeks before the wedding, she became our florist and they were gorgeous! She was present 100% and I don't know what we would've done without her.
Thank you for going above and beyond and making our dream day a reality. -

Starla Sent on 12/27/2021I knew things were being taken care of :)
Anita was one of the first vendors we hired for our wedding, and she was super thorough and encouraging right from the start! Whatever question I had for her, she gave me her honest insight and helped guide our decisions. The florist we ended up working with was one that she recommended to us, and that was also a really amazing and affordable experience!
When we had to postpone due to Covid, Anita comforted and reassured us through the process and helped us navigate the steps that followed.
On our wedding day she was incredibly thorough and a much-needed source of guidance for our whole crew! I honestly don’t know what we would’ve done if we hadn’t had Anita and her team there to set up all of the decor items we personally brought to the venue, it allowed the bridal parties and families to relax and prep for the event! I am so thankful for all of the work Anita did for us, and for putting up with a stressed/overwhelmed DIY-ing bride like myself 😂❤️A STARR Events's reply:
Hello Starla!
Thank you SO very much for the wonderful review/s- you are very sweet to take the time and it's fabulous to hear your feedback...It's because of your (& other past clients) positive words that I remain one of the most sought after event planners in Monterey Bay and your "story" advertises my services more than I ever could using marketing techniques that I would be expected to fund....so THANK YOU!
It was a pleasure getting to know you and Brandon during the course of our planning. I was heartbroken when the pandemic forced us to reschedule a year later than originally planned. When August 1st finally arrived and as I watched your fairy tale wedding unfold at Holman Ranch, I realized that it was worth the wait. We had almost two years to ensure your day mirrored your vision exactly! Holman Ranch is a gorgeous setting, your decor so elegant and your wedding dress!!!
Your gown was incredible, so romantic and a perfect fit to the overall style of your wedding. I would love to receive some photos from your photographer (if possible) so I can add them to my business website gallery. Would you mind sharing a few from the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner reception and dancing in the carriage house?
We used every inch of the ranch and since you and Brandon are so photogenic I would love to view/choose the photos that would fit perfectly for marketing purposes- Your day was exquisite in so many ways..I'm positive that choosing each photo will be a challenge!
Please give my love to Brandon and your Family...your Mom was so much help; she is (amazingly crafty) a bit of an overachiever by designing your wedding bouquets and boutonnieres for the wedding party! Looking back now I can't believe how your entire family showed their love...from family (homemade wine) to share with your guests to those metal pomegranate truffle favors...no details were spared!
My best to all of you and please remember that you always have family here in Monterey Bay, come visit us soon!
Love, Anita -

Tracey Sent on 12/08/2021Anita is absolutely excellent!
Other than marrying my husband, hiring Anita as my wedding planner/coordinator was the best choice I could have made for my wedding. After interviewing multiple potential wedding planners, I was sure that she was the right choice because of her professionalism, responsiveness, and her myriad of connections in the bay area. Her rates are very reasonable and the extensive work that she put into our wedding to make sure everything was perfect made her the greatest value we could have asked for! We were living in Texas while planning a wedding at a private property in California which was initially a challenge but once we hired Anita, she was able to put things into place by finding our caterer, DJ, tent/many other rentals, along with handling the logistics of coordinating the deliveries, budget, design, and day of specifics. I do not know how the wedding would have happened without her so if I could give her 10/5 stars here I would! She was able to coordinate with my in-laws and wedding parties to make sure that all the details were set in place. Anita's meticulous, detail oriented planning along with her ease in communication, timeliness, friendliness, and professionalism made her a pleasure to work with. While working with Anita, I always felt like her priority throughout the entire process. She made me feel like my wants and needs were met and was able to fill in any missing gaps I had so smoothly that it seemed effortless. I would easily say that my wedding was the best day of my life and a lot of it was due to the hard work that Anita put in to make the day run so smoothly. Thank you Anita, we were so lucky to have found you. More updates on pictures to come once I get them back from the photographer! -

I wanted to express my gratitude for your organizational talent. The wedding was above and beyond our expectations.
Maria and I have seen our fair share of receptions on tour around the world - we’ve seen all levels of luxury and cold extravagance.
We fell in love with the ceremony and reception. Everything was so elegant, coordinated, detailed, and luxurious. And yet - it was cozy, familial, and warm.
Thank you for your talent and for saving the day. You’ve made an unforgettable day that much more unforgettable.
We look forward to seeing you sometime soon on tour.

Haley Sent on 04/04/2021If you're looking for a wedding planner, Anita is all that and more!
I'm a very organized person who originally thought I'd plan and coordinate my own wedding. Trying to plan a California wedding from Colorado was challenging, so we reached out to Anita. Working with Anita was the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding planning process. She predicts needs / questions that you didn't even know you had!
You should know that Anita is incredibly personable and professional. Since our first conversation with Anita, we felt like we'd known her for years. She's inquisitive, caring, and takes the time to get to know you. She'll remember pieces of your conversations months later as you're making decisions and planning your big day.
Our wedding was slated for March 2020, and as that time approached and we didn't yet have all our vendors, Anita went the extra mile to find them. This wasn't in our original contract, but she was there for us to solve the challenges we were facing. Due to COVID, we had to cancel our original wedding, and once again, we were so happy to have Anita on our team. She coordinated with all our vendors and helped us understand ramifications in our contracts. She made a really hard decision and time much better.
We'd give Anita 6/5 stars in this rating if we could. Thank you, Anita, for all the hard work, compassion, and fun you brought into our wedding planning process.A STARR Events's reply:
Eric & Haley,
I was stunned when we were forced to postpone your wedding, after all your pre-planning from Colorado to Cali was perfect; the world shut down...
Months later I was overjoyed to see that You, Eric, your parents & siblings were able to sneak away so you could get married in private. The photos at Zion National Park were incredible! Thank you for sharing them with me, your faces (BIG smiles) said it all...
Haley, THE dress...it was so perfectly "YOU"! Stunning color and texture against the rock formations (backdrop), so beautiful and comfortable looking...vans and all...I love that photo!
I think I owe you the time to coordinate a party! When you are ready to plan a celebration in Carmel Valley, the Ranch is waiting for you and so am I!
Best Wishes, it was a pleasure working with you for the many months we spent on the phone and sharing emails. I often think of you and wonder when we will cross paths again.
Keep in touch, much love to you!

Sarah Sent on 03/20/2020You're In Great Hands with Anita
Thinking that since our wedding ceremony had only 30 guests, my husband and I thought we could get away with not having a planner. And we probably could have -- but not without losing our minds. Did I mention that we were planning the event from 3,000 miles away, and I had never seen the venue in person?
When my MIL finally convinced me to hire a "month-of" coordinator so we could all relax a little, I interviewed a few people. It was clear right away that Anita was a true professional who was going to make everything okay! She thought of all the little things you don't know if you've never been married before, and worked with our budget and ideas seamlessly.
On the day of the wedding, she was a real anchor of calm who kept everything moving along and sheltered me from any snafus that I didn't need to be worried about. I highly recommend her as an essential piece of an amazing day.A STARR Events's reply:
Sarah & Gus, what a great wedding day it was! The Monarch Cove Inn was so flexible and the perfect setting for your ocean front ceremony. You hired some amazing vendors who worked seamlessly and performed their jobs perfectly! Your photographer @KrystalKast took some gorgeous photos, I would love to use some of them for advertising on my website- would you mind sharing some more with me? You chose one of my favorite florists, Karla @luxuryfloraldesigns and she is the best! Your floral pieces were exquisite- at the ceremony site and your plan to repurpose them worked perfectly at the reception restaurant too.
You absolutely made my job easy by being so organized and giving me the tools to successfully execute your day, thank you for being so communicative and helpful...it's not easy to plan a wedding from 3,000 miles away but I think you did an amazing job too!
Sending my love from California, hoping your family is healthy and well.
XOXO,

Kayla Sent on 11/21/2019Anita was the best!!
Let me tell you first and foremost that a wedding event coordinator should fall with as much priority as obtaining all other vendors i.e caterer, photographer, florist AND wedding event coordinator.
About 4 months before our wedding I realized I needed help!! While the knot is great, the ability to pull everything together while planning and enjoying wedding festivities I.e bridal shower, Bachelorette, invites, etc., consider a wedding coordinator will be key towards the end as deadlines are piling.
We were lucky enough to get Anita late in the game just about 4 months before our wedding. Our hesitancy to be honest was money, however Anita was able to modify her services with my budget. I was able to complete most of the pre planning activities with her focusing on ensuring all vendors understood our theme and timeline for the wedding day. Anita helped us think about things that we hadn’t thought to ensure our day would be amazing! I would also encourage couples to think about the day of and the day before and how great it was for us to be able to go to rehearsal dinner and prep for wedding day and know that we were such great hands!
My reception was at our family’s private ranch. While I was lucky to not spend money to rent a venue, it’s important to know that even if you are organizing events at a private home or property that you will need to consider who is coordinating this event. Anita helped make our dreams come true with securing our vendors and making sure everything went well on our day.
The day after our wedding my husband and I were talking about how all in all Anita as our wedding event coordinator was a total must, and she was well worth it! Anita helped ensure that our wedding day went so smooth and kept us on track. Most importantly, our parents and family were able to enjoy our event rather than working it. While our family helped a lot leading up to the event having Anita and her team made sure our day was so perfect!
For those thinking they can’t afford a coordinator consider this, on such a special day that goes by so fast, have the help of someone that can make your day a breeze. Anita and her team made our day so amazing and we got such great comments from our guests!
We are so grateful for Anita and I would HIGHLY recommend her as an event planner!
A STARR Events's reply:
Kayla, thank you for your kind words! You were so easy to work with and I miss you already!
It’s always sad when my wedding season ends for the winter..you were my final wedding for 2019, I enjoyed meeting your family and friends-what a great group of guests!
Your vendor team and our smooth timeline allowed for a perfectly executed day- the Mariachi band was a special treat- a few of their songs brought tears to my eyes!
Thank you for finding me, it’s clients like you who make my job fun.
Best Wishes to you and Andrew!
Much Love,
Anita

Aubry Sent on 10/22/2019Couldn’t Have Chosen A Better Coordinator!
Anita exceeded my expectations. From our very first conversation to our wedding day, she listened, was personable, upbeat, and a force to be reckoned with!
She reassured me when I had doubts and answered all calls, texts, and emails promptly. She was also provided our linens and designed our floral arrangements (which were GORGEOUS!) personally, for an additional fee.
On our big day, she ensured that everything ran smoothly. She worked into the night prepping & was ready for whatever may come the following day! She managed the service team and all vendors, making sure that they were doing what they were paid to do.
Besides her great demeanor, truly, it’s her amazing skill set that proved we had chosen the right person for our special day. I gave her my ideas and she ran with it. She had a vision for our venue and made our day unique, classy, and just beautiful. She even provided personal props & touches, things that she’s acquired over the many years of working in the industry. Things that me, as a busy bride, would’ve never thought about!
From all of us Anita, thank you so very much for all that you’ve done. You helped us make a lifetime of memories. Your services are truly priceless!! -

Brittany Sent on 12/03/2018Yes to A Starr Events!
Working with A STARR Events was truly one of the best decisions I made throughout my entire wedding planning process. Anita made it easy from the very beginning and really helped me navigate through my visions for the day and help make them a reality. She put my wants and needs first but also helped to lead me with her experience and expertise. She provided me with checklists and checked-in with me to help keep me on track and feel relaxed. I could feel her years of experience when I would call her overwhelmed and she would just walk me through it step-by-step until I was clear on what needed to be done and she would help me do it. We had A STARR staff at our wedding and they were dressed professionally and knew what they were doing. If I had this wonderful of an experience with A STARR Events planning a wedding, I'm sure there is no event they could not tackle. I would recommend them over and over again!

10/10 Overall Experience
Anita was in phenomenal as a day of coordinator for our wedding. She was definitely more than just a day of assistance - and with our wedding she did not have an easy task. We had 100 hurricane vases and did our own flowers so she acted as two vendors essentially. She pulled together all the details into one coherent document for all my vendors and led our rehearsal. To think that I could have done that on my own is insanity - Anita’s services were critical to our wedding running so smoothly. In fact, I was so shocked an event like that could run SO problem free. Anita handled everything like an absolute professional. She also stayed overtime to help my family pack up - my family said they were shocked that everything was cleaned up in time. If you are looking for a planner or day of coordinator definitely use Anita! Thank you so much for your hard work to make our wedding day perfect, it truly was everything I wanted!!! ***PLUS ask about her sister for any pastry needs. She made our cake and brownies and wow it was completely gone at the end of the night. We got so many compliments on the dessert! -

Fantastic Wedding Coordinator!
I had the pleasure of working with Anita recently and she was amazing! She made sure I was prepared and knew everything that was going on throughout the day! She was very friendly and easy to communicate with - I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for wedding coordination! Thank you Anita!!A STARR Events's reply:
Thank you Levi, it was wonderful to work with such a talented DJ and vocalist! You are a rare find in this industry and I'm grateful our clients found you...
I was blown away by your voice and repertoire of music you performed during Kevin and Tiffany's cocktail hour....when it was time to move to your DJ equipment in the ranch barn, you effortlessly switched gears and put your emcee/DJ hat on!
YOU made my job as "day of" coordinator easy...for that you landed on my preferred vendor list! Let's do it again soon.
My best to you,
Anita -
