Patty is absolutely amazing and I loved working with her!
I'm getting married in October in Carmel and was looking for a wedding planner to help me find wedding vendors, review contracts, and find a location for our rehearsal dinner and welcome party. Every Last Detail was the first company I called. I'm normally the type of person who calls around to explore options and find the best price, but Patty was so personable and made what felt like a daunting task seem fun so I booked her right away.
I'm so glad I went with my gut because I couldn't imagine working with anyone else! Patty was very helpful and responsive. She also went above and beyond for multiple tasks.
We live a few hours away from Carmel and wanted to plan a trip to visit some rehearsal dinner locations. We ended up planning this with only a few days turnaround time. I expected given the time crunch that Patty would give us a list of venues to check out based on our criteria, but she actually planned the whole trip for us! She introduced us to points of contact at each venue, scheduled each tour, and even mapped them out so we visited places that were in close proximity back to back and we didn't have to keep trekking back and forth between locations. It took all the stress off of planning and coordinating.
I also know that finding spots that we would like was not an easy task in and of itself. My fiance, future mother in law, and myself all had some different/ vague ideas for the event. Patty did a great job finding locations that fit what each of us was looking for.
We were so impressed, my future mother in law even hired her again after the fact to coordinate the day of the rehearsal dinner.
I would highly recommend Patty and Every Last Detail for event planning! -

We LOVE Patty!! Patty truly went above and beyond and ensured that every detail was accounted for at our wedding. She put my mind at ease each time I talked to her, and was on top of so many things that I would have never even thought of. I had full confidence in her and her team, and my family and I were able to more thoroughly enjoy the day because she was on our team. I would highly recommend working with Every Last Detail for an upcoming wedding!! -

Liane Sent on 10/10/2024Brilliant and I’d absolutely recommend.
We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner! From the moment we started working together, Patty made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She worked with us despite our busy schedules in different time zones. She was incredibly organized, attentive to every detail, and always available to answer our questions. Patty truly understood our vision and turned it into a reality beyond what we could have imagined. Her vendor recommendations were top-notch, and the day of the wedding went off without a hitch. Thanks to Every Last Detail, we were able to fully enjoy our big day knowing everything was in capable hands. We highly recommend Patty & Carol of Every Last Detail to anyone looking for a dedicated, professional, friendly, caring, enthusiastic, and creative planner!

Jasmine Sent on 05/24/2024Patty at ELD is the BEST of the best!!!
Patty was my wedding planner for my wedding last June 2023 and I really can't say enough good things about her. She's truly incredible, and made our wedding experience so special. I was having some health issues and i work a stressful job, and i was able to rely on her for so much. She is with you every step of the way, and she's so knowledgeable. I really can't imagine trying to plan a wedding on my own, without Patty. There are a lot of wedding planners out there but I know from friends that a lot of them are not great. Patty is 100/10 and goes above and beyond to make your day special. I can't recommend her enough - she is the best of the best!!! Thank you Patty for everything you did for Mack and I -

Nisha Sent on 04/19/2024Amazing Wedding Coach!
It was such pleasure having Patty at Every Last Detail as a wedding coach throughout our planning process! I wish we could have hired her for her whole planning package but our venue actually came with a venue coordinator. We liked her energy and personality so much and knew how much expertise she had to offer so we wanted to utilize her services in some way and having her as a coach was a perfect solution. She is extremely thorough and made sure we considered everything and offered suggestions that really helped relieve stress. She is very conscientious and quick to reply. Also extremely well connected in the Monterey area, she was able to connect us with some amazing vendors. I highly recommend Patty at Every Last Detail if you are looking for a wedding planner who is kind, thoughtful, fun and truly takes care of every last detail of the wedding process! She is amazing! -

Stephanie Sent on 12/16/2023Great Experience with ELD - definitely recommend
We hired Patty at ELD to plan our wedding in 2023. We are not from Monterey, so Patty's knowledge of reputable vendors and great options for value/cost in the local area was priceless. Every vendor she suggested was fabulous, and I appreciated the range of options she provided. She's also very enthusiastic about incorporating your ideas and does not try to force you into a "cookie cutter" event, which I appreciated. Our event turned out wonderfully, despite some weather hiccups, and the experience was much better because we had hired Patty. I was initially hesitant about hiring a planner, but in the end our wedding experience was much more enjoyable having the ELD team in charge. -

Cindy Sent on 09/01/2023Impeccable professionalism, planning and communication
Patty at ELD, was an amazingly organized and professional wedding planner. From start to finish she was on every detail and provided guidance in our decision making. I don’t know how we could’ve pulled off this destination (Monterey, Ca) wedding without her expertise. I highly recommend her. You will not be sorry. -

Nick Sent on 10/31/2022We LOVED working with Patty and Every Last Detail!!!
Patty and her team at ELD deserve the HUGEST thank you for helping coordinate our wedding day and the run up to it to make sure everything went offer better than we could have imagined!
From helping us select and book outstanding vendors to managing timelines and orchestrating the entire day, it was clear that she had our and our guests’ best interests in mind at every step. As a couple we were constantly telling each other that we would not have a wedding if it weren’t for Patty & team. We could not have done it without her!
If you are looking for a coordinator to make sure your wedding experience is well coordinated and as low stress as possible we HIGHLY RECOMMEND going to Patty! -

Emily Sent on 09/10/2022Patty is fabulous!!!
Patty was an absolutely wonderful wedding planner - from day one we knew we were in very good hands. I would say my favorite part about Patty was that we got the sense that she wouldn't let anyone mess with us. Her ultimate goal was that we were happy and that everything went smoothly on our special day, even if that meant curtailing difficult family members.... luckily we did not have any, but if we did, we knew she would take care of them, haha. She ran a tight ship and I honestly think that is why everything ran so seamlessly. She is incredibly knowledgeable about vendors in the area and that made planning our wedding from Missouri a breeze! Patty is the best there is, we would recommend her to anyone! -

Trecila Sent on 11/07/2021Awesome wedding planner
Patty was the wedding planner for a wedding that had to be postponed several times due to the pandemic and she was fantastic about it all! As soon as we met her we knew we were in great hands. Patty was incredibly organized, responsive and provided great suggestions for vendors to use. My son and his fiancé had a large wedding and many last minute requests such as finding childcare services for parents who had their kids at the reception and she figured out a way to make every request happen. After many delays, the wedding went incredibly smoothly due to how wonderful of a wedding planner Patty is. We loved working with her and would not hesitate to recommend her to other families.

Nilendri Sent on 11/06/2021Awesome planner that got things done!!
We highly recommend Patty! She was always there to offer a helping hand whenever we needed her. She was very detail-oriented and made our wedding planning very easygoing. She recommended to us other vendors that turned out to be amazing!! Patty did most of the coordination and communications with everyone that was involved with the wedding. On the wedding day, she was there to make us feel comfortable and all details were handled. She was very caring and made sure everyone was fine. One small example to say how caring she was is when she carried plasters for everyone that had shoe cuts. Even at the end of the wedding, when we went to our room, we were surprised to see Patty’s loving gesture of making sure we had a piece of the wedding cake with late-night snacks in our room. She was a pro and she got things done!!!

The best advocate in a uncertain time.
We hired Patty to be our wedding planner after meeting with a few, though her price beat the others, the real reason we hired her was we knew she could be our voice to take care of whatever we needed, we could tell she would fight to make our wedding the wedding we wanted. We worked with her for about 18 months to the date we got married. Unfortunately Covid killed a lit of our planning including our original venue no longer being able to accommodate us. My wife and I are both in healthcare care and knew this might happen and were really about to give up and postpone everything. With all the work and planning that went into everything, we were crushed. Patty did not give up. Though we ended up changing our wedding to an elopement wedding and just postponing our big ceremony and reception for friends and family once things calm down, Patty made things happen. She found us a venue in Monterey that would accommodate us on our originally planned date, made sure we had accommodations for the 4 nights we wanted to be there and even made sure we had a reservation for a nice restaurant for after our ceremony. It wasn't the original plan, but Patty was able to adapt and make our wedding day happen. She is awesome and we will be bringing her to Hawaii when we have our ceremony and reception for our friends and family. She was even our witness for our elopement. We love her and bet you will too. -

Bree Sent on 04/05/2020Best in the Biz!
I've been lucky to have worked with Patty on several weddings and I'm always so impressed by her. She's extremely organized and always puts her clients first. She's got an incredible network of vendors at the ready that love and adore her which means a lot in our industry. She's also extremely calm under pressure which puts everybody working with her at ease. Patty is one of the best in the industry and I feel honored when I get to work beside her. I love you Patty! -

Bianca Sent on 09/25/2019The best! Detail oriented, energetic, and so helpful
Highly recommend Patty! She is detail oriented, energetic, and honest. We started working with Patty a year before our wedding and she partnered with us from the beginning to create a custom hybrid package for our needs. Throughout the year, she was quick to answer every question and provided helpful recommendations. She has worked at our venue (Highlands Inn) so she knew the layout and staff very well — this came to our advantage when the Hyatt’s manager left and hired a new event director a few weeks before our wedding. At 8 weeks before our wedding, Patty started connecting with vendors and creating our schedule. She was a pro! We worked together on minor changes but overall everything she delivered was polished and perfect. On the week of, she helped create a schedule for each vendor (including my family) and also came to our rehearsal dinner where she walked us through the details. On the day of our wedding, she and her awesome assistant kept me, my husband, and our 2 year old dog comfortable and on schedule. The whole wedding was perfect and we are so grateful! -

Martha Sent on 04/02/2019Better than the best
As a wedding planner and coordinator myself, I had very high expectations of my coordinator. Patty exceeded my expectations in every way. It was amazing having her on my wedding planning team. She made my entire wedding experience better than I had expected. Thanks to Patty, my husband and I had the most beautiful, relaxing, and easy-flowing wedding!! Hiring Patty was one of the best wedding planning decisions we made :-) -
Camille Sent on 10/15/2017I don’t even know where to begin with this woman...Words cannot express how helpful Patty was throughout the year we took planning my dream wedding. She was referred to be by a good friend of mine who also hired her to plan a perfect wedding.
First and foremost I want you all to know that I’m a complete control freak and have a certain way of doing everything up to my standards. I met with Patty on a few occasions and she basically made me feel like she could handle it all and I was not to worry or stress about a thing. I described my vision to her and she got to it.
She contacted all the vendors and requested quotes. She found me options and never pushed me once in a certain direction but definitely found me the best of the best!
She created timelines for us, vendor info, listed balances that were due and when. Sh just went above and beyond for us. There was never a question in my mind as to whether this could all be pulled off or not. This isn’t just her job, but it’s her passion and it clearly shows.
The wedding day was so chaotic and with a million people but each detail and request I had, was taken care of and the day went perfectly.
I couldn’t be happier with my beautiful celebration and how smoothly it ran.
She arranged a limo to take us back to the resort at the end of the night and went out of her way to load each and every item I owned, including our gifts, cards and any decor we owned, into my car, then drove it over to drop off at our resort.
I could spend all day going into EVERY LAST DETAIL of what she did for us but overall, but that’s her job :)
WE couldn’t be happier to have hired her and would do it again in a heartbeat! It’s obvious we love throwing parties and will definitely use Patty each and every time!!!! -

Siobhan Sent on 08/18/2014Through Every Last Detail I worked with Patty Spiers, contracting her "Day of" Wedding Coordination Services. I did most of the wedding planning myself from across the country, so I really needed someone with boots on the ground to help me hash out the details. To top it off, I had never been to a wedding before, so I didn't have real world experience seeing what even happens at weddings! Patty was EXTREMELY responsive and helpful with the minutest of details: thinking of things I would have never considered to make sure things ran smoothly. She took care of everything so I didn't have a care in the world on my big day: and that's saying something because I am a known compulsive worrier/stress monkey. I have no complaints and I was very satisfied. Patty was a delight to work with! -

Patricia Sent on 07/26/2011Patty Patty Patty... what would we ever do without Patty? We had a horrific experience with another wedding planner, thankfully we found Patty and she saved the day. First instruction... take a deep breath. We were trying to plan a wedding 6 months before the event... not too bad if you have people to help you and experience with the wedding process... but we had NO CLUE. Thankfully, Patty has experience (and I mean TONS) and she was able to point us in the right direction, set-up appointments, and get us a venue in a matter of one week... slowly the stress levels started to drop and we could focus on what was actually happening... getting married! Patty was our first line of defense from the first day to the actual day... she loaned us items so we didn't have to purchase them... she brought along an extra team member day of. Oh, lots of little details that only Patty could pull off. We will never forget Patty and her team. Ben&Tricia -

Sarah Sent on 10/16/2010Getting Patty as our wedding planner was one of the best things that we did for our wedding. Four months before our wedding, we requested Patty's day of wedding services. We had completed most of the arrangements for the wedding, but there were still a few more things that we had to put together. My fiancé and I at the time were also out of the country in school so I needed someone that would be tech savvy and keep me connected to Monterey. Also, unlike other wedding planners in the area she would respond to emails at a lighting speed. Patty was so on top of everything and had wonderful contacts with other Monterey vendors. When I finally got back to the states she spent a day with me going to all my wedding locations, meeting with my florist (CC creations - Cynthia Fones) and organizing the details of the décor with my party rental vendor (Illusions of Grandeur). It was her lively and spunky attitude that made no task undoable. She even created the schedule for the flow of the wedding day.
The day of the wedding I was so relaxed because I knew that both Patty and her assistant would be taking care of all the setup and organization. They did a beautiful job and worked well with both our families. Although there were a few mishaps, like having to call in favors to get my acrylic nails fixed and pinning up my wedding dress when someone ripped my under garments. There was no task they could not overcome. Patty always had a solution to every problem. Everything was completely seamless and I cannot express my thanks to both Patty and her assistant for everything they did for my husband and me!!! If you are a bride and you are wavering on the idea of getting a wedding planner, just do it!! Because it is seriously worth everything to just sit back and enjoy the day with your new husband!! -

Andrea Sent on 09/05/2010I recently got married at Berwick Park in Pacific Grove with the reception at the old whaling station in Monterey and can’t imagine how my day would’ve gone off with out the help of Patty and ELD. Patty is extremely organized and pays incredibly close attention to detail. Before the wedding she did everything from contacting all the vendors, making a timeline and recommend great vendors (no kick-backs, just trusted industry advice).
She organized the rehearsal and even had nametags for everyone which was a nice touch and on the day of she was able to incorporate all my DIY personalized touches to make my day special on top of take care of everything behind the scenes from chasing off a second bride who was confused as to which park she was getting married, to using a pooper scooper at the ceremony location to rid it of the goose droppings, getting an extremely tardy maid of honor in her dress, to straightening the aisle runner and cleaning up and putting all our personalized touches in my hotel room during the reception and talking to the police after a noise complaint! I highly recommend her and her team, if you actually want to enjoy your wedding day stress free!!
