    Overjoyed by working with Mandy!

    Mandy is a truly gifted creative and organizational force. Her no-fuss approach ensured that our massive “wedding train" ran smoothly and on time. With an impeccable sense of style and a deep understanding of what works and what doesn’t, she expertly guided us to all the right decisions. Working with Mandy also comes with knowing that you'll benefit tremendously from her connections and seasoned relationships with many of the very best professionals in the industry, which proved invaluable to us. Mandy ensured that every vendor we hired not only aligned with our creative vision but also operated within our budget.

    In the final week leading up to the event, Mandy's reassuring presence put our frazzled minds at ease. Then on the big day, our outdoor wedding plans were almost completely derailed by unexpected terrible weather. Mandy instinctively came to my wife’s support. Upon seeing what the weather had become, my wife was in tears, fearing the day was ruined. Mandy, with her comforting hug and reassuring words, provided the best kind of assurance that everything would turn out perfectly. And it did! Once she pivoted us into the new plan of events, we quickly forgot about all the changes and were overjoyed by the overwhelming beauty of the day that followed! Thanks to Mandy’s ingenuity, extreme weather challenges were transformed into pure magic… It actually made our wedding day into something better than we could have imagined.
    We wholeheartedly recommend her – a true collaborator who can turn your wedding dreams into a reality.

    Thorough, detail-oriented, organized, fun, and flexible wedding planner!

    I cannot recommend working with Mandy highly enough. She is thorough, flexible, organized, detail-oriented, responsive, and straight forward. She's also fun to work with and she was so genuinely excited about our wedding. Simply wonderful. We hired her right as we started to plan our wedding and spent around 16 months working on it, with a few month-long breaks in the middle when we got really busy with our jobs/travel/other things.

    I was especially pleased with her ability to help us find ways to incorporate our family/cultural heritage into the wedding in ways that we liked. She was also conscious about keeping within budget - we came in $3k under our overall budget. Working with her is relaxing because she handles the overall plan and schedule, and you can just focus on one thing at a time.

    Best wedding planner ever

    Mandy Scott was EVERYTHING our wedding needed and deserved. She's not just the glue that holds everything together, she is the savior pulling out last minute solutions to unforeseen events... like our DJ quitting 7 days before our wedding! Mandy had us lined up with a new DJ in less that 2 hours. As someone who has spent a decent amount of time planning events, I can honestly say she's better than anyone I have ever worked with in my life. Our wedding was absolutely perfect, and the only thing I would change if I could go back in time and fix anything - would be to START the wedding planning process with her so that she could find all the best vendors. I can't say enough kind things about Mandy, her and her assistant were EVERYTHING. She made our day care free and perfect, she made it so that we didn't have to deal with ANYTHING logistics related the day of the wedding. She handled all the communication with all the vendors, the tips, the annoying drunk people, she was everywhere and did it all with a sense of grace and calm. She is the best thing you'll have at your wedding.

    We LOVE Mandy!!!

    Mandy is an exceptional wedding planner! If you're thinking of hiring her as part of your wedding team, DO IT! We had to reschedule our wedding twice due to Covid, and Mandy made sure everything went off flawlessly, negotiating with vendors and our venue. She is organized, friendly, talented, and very knowledgeable. She gave us several vendor recommendations (flowers, caterer, rentals, and band) and we were super happy with all of her suggestions. When we throw our anniversary party one day, Mandy will be the first person we call! :)

    Best wedding planner a couple could ask for!

    We can't recommend Mandy and her team enough! From the moment we met her, we knew she was the right person to help us plan our dream wedding. She has the amazing ability to listen to your thoughts and ideas and turn them into a reality.

    We started working with Mandy almost a year before our wedding, and she helped keep us on track the whole way. Her organization and frequent in-person touch points took all of the stress away from the planning. She has impeccable taste, and each vendor she recommended was first class. I can't tell you how many compliments we received on everything, from the bouquets and room decor to the photography and video team.

    The day of the wedding was also seamless, which was no small feat given that we were moving between two venues for the ceremony (UC Berkeley Botanical Gardens) and the reception (Claremont Hotel). Everything ran like clockwork and we were able to enjoy our wedding without giving anything else a second thought!

    Thank you, Mandy!!!

    Simply phenomenal.

    We are forever indebted to Mandy and her team for planning the wedding BEYOND our dreams. Throughout the entire planning process, she was kind, communicative, professional, and accommodating to so many of our requests. She had all the right connections which helped us move conversations along and replace vendors when incidents were raised -- as an example, our videography had to cancel our engagement a few weeks before the wedding and Mandy instantly had a number of alternatives lined up. Furthermore, no idea was too grand -- even surprising my husband with a puppy on a very busy wedding day went smoothly. The entire wedding weekend was seamless (as far as I could tell) - my husband and I, as well as our families, simply could not be more thankful for Mandy and her teams services.

    Wedding Planning Bliss

    Working with Mandy for the past year has been an absolute pleasure! From the start, she was very responsive and we clicked right away. About a year out from the wedding we started meeting on a bi-weekly basis, this planning schedule along with her top-notch organization skills led to a seamless planning experience up to the wedding. Mandy took care of everything and kept us schedule and in our budget range. The day of the wedding her associate and Mandy were on site early that day and took care of all aspects of setup and takedown, and all the nitty-gritty details in between. At the end of the day, she was a dream to work with and my husband and I miss our weekly meeting with Mandy!

    First off, she has changed addresses, so please make sure you get her at the Rodgers address in San Francisco.

    Second, I know it can be unrealistic to get 5 stars across the board, but she does! She's excellent, read below.

    Mandy is an exceptionally creative and talented woman. My sister used her only for flowers, not her planning services, but she was thorough and did a wonderful job. She exceeded expectations with her color choices and the way she put together exactly what my sister was interested in. She was able to decorate an arch that was used in the services beautifully, and left several loose flower buds to decorate the cake and venue.

    I have since reached out to Mandy for her flower services for my own wedding. She met with us after hours and spent a lot of time getting to know the wedding. I asked her about certain flowers I was interested in and she was able to tell me why they would not work or if they were in season or not. She is very knowledgeable, which makes the meetings with her very informative. She was very flexible with my wants and needs, and is willing to accommodate special requests. My quote for 1 bridal bouquet, 4 maids bouquets, 1 jr maid bouquet, and 7 boutineers, delivery, custom wraps, etc was under $900 after tax.

    I highly recommend Mandy and her team for their flower services.... and from the conversations we have had, I know she would be an awesome wedding planner as well, I just didn't need such services.

    Mandy Scott and her team were a dream to work with! They were great listeners as to what I wanted, but also offered their professional advice on how to make the event even that much more special and memorable. I highly recommend Mandy Scott for your wedding and/or event. You will not be disappointed with the results!

    Wow, not sure how to put into words how much my partner and I loved working with Mandy Scott Events! Mandy was the glue that kept it all together throughout not only the planning process for our wedding, but for the event itself as well. We asked for the "impossible dream" 9 months ago when we hired Mandy to help us pull off the wedding of the year in Napa in September of the same year......not an easy task. Not only did she deliver, but she exceeded all of our expectations! Her vendor referrals were the best of the best, and Mandy was an absolute star.

    The planning process was fun, Mandy communicated fabulously, and the night went off without a hitch. We can't wait to refer Mandy to as many of our friends as possible, as we know the results will be extraordinary. Don't sell yourself short and not also use Mandy Scott Flowers........she handled flowers for our Rehearsal Dinner and the Wedding, and they were stunning!!

    Mandy took a bewildering process and made it simple, walking us through every step. She performed equally well before the wedding and on the wedding day also in her capacity as officiant. We trusted fully her choices of a venue, an entertainer, the bakery, among other services that she suggested.
    Mandy is also very flexible, friendly, and pleasant to work with. She accommodated all of our preferences and needs. Her assistant Kristina was also of great help with the organization and made the wedding day run smoothly. We were left with no worries and all joy!

    I was really lucky to have Mandy help my wife and I with our wedding planning. We only had about half a year before the actual wedding date. My fiance is in NYC so I was responsible for planning the whole thing. Mandy provided a lot of helpful info and guidance, couldn't have done it without her. She always answered my emails and phone calls promptly. She always gave me all the information I needed to make an informed decision. Her knowledge and expertise was invaluable.

    Mandy Scott did all of the flowers for my October wedding, and it was GORGEOUS. I should start by saying that Mandy was responsive and helpful. She came with my mom and me to look at linens and rentals just to make sure that the flowers would fit with the rest of the decor (even though she was not our wedding planner), and she even brought some flowers with her so that I could see what the table setups would look like. She was also incredibly patient with us in discussing options for a hanging tent installation, which we did not end up doing because it was cost prohibitive.

    Now to the wedding day. My photographer seriously told me that she couldn't stop taking pictures of my bouquet because it was so beautiful. It was lush and full of big high-quality seasonal flowers. The huppah she designed for the ceremony was stunning and it was in just the style I wanted. And the flowers on the dinner tables were so pretty that even I (the bride) had my phone out to take pictures of them. Every detail on all of the floral arrangements was impeccable. I highly recommend Mandy.

    My family and I cannot stop raving about Mandy and her team. We had a complicated Indian/Persian wedding of 250 people in Carmel Valley.

    Mandy is highly focused. She kept us on track, enthusiastically joined for all our vendor meetings, managed all people involved in the wedding, and graciously provided her opinion but did not insist upon it. Her management for the event prior and on the day of were flawless, and led to a perfect day. We have received so many compliments from our guests about how well organized the day was.

    The florals she provided were show stopping and speak volumes about her eye for detail.

    Mandy was absolutely fantastic. I had heard about her through work she does at my company and thought she would be too far out of my price range, but thought I would give her a try and I am so glad I did! My budget wasn't very large for the amount of ideas I had for our wedding but she was so calm and understanding. She worked with my budget and produced bouquets and centerpieces that were fit for royalty. I gave here a general concept (not knowing much about floral arrangements) and she ran with it and made it more than I could have ever imagined. I would definitely recommend Mandy Scott Flowers to anyone and everyone!

    We used Mandy Scott for our May 2013 wedding at the Golden Gate Club for both flowers and day-of coordination services. She was FABULOUS, very responsive, and an absolute pleasure to work with.

    Flowers: Mandy did an amazing job on a reasonable budget. I didn’t have a strong vision for what I wanted the flowers to look like; I showed Mandy pictures of a few other weddings I sort-of liked, discussed colors and the vibe of the wedding, and she took my random ideas and came up with more beautiful flowers than I could have imagined. She also went above and beyond, helping advise on linen colors and other small items.

    Day-of Coordination: We were on the fence about hiring a day-of coordinator, but hiring Mandy in this capacity was one of the best decisions we made. She was available for questions leading up to our wedding, was very organized in ensuring all vendors were re-confirmed, and was very professional dealing with a few other vendors who were difficult. We had total confidence that everything would go well on the day of the wedding because of her planning - and it did.

    For a couple of weeks, my fiance and I attempted to do our own wedding planning and those two weeks we became frustrated, nervous and began to look at each other funny. Before hitching a train for Albuquerque, we decided to go on the internet and see if we could find a competent wedding planner. What we did not know, was that we would find an extra-ordinary wedding planner. From the day she took over, we became relaxed and began to look forward to our wedding. She took over all of our suppliers and added some of her own and from that moment on she kept us informed, provided us with the exact timetable and provided our guests with the information they needed to know. She not only made things run smoothly but performed beyond our expectations. Everything was taken care of, checked and double-checked. In addition, unforeseen problems like securing collar stays for my fiance's shirt, replaced "the forgotten" neck tie for his suit and located my brother and woke him from a deep sleep while the guests were waiting to start dinner.

    We were able to relax and enjoy our wedding because we were lucky enough to have found the perfect wedding planner, Mandy.

    Mandy was always available to us. She always responded immediately to our requests and was so wonderful in co-ordinating the various different vendors. Her recommendations for the band and videographer were wonderful. The flowers for the wedding were spectacular and I still have people asking me who did your flowers! Mandy was there at the crack of dawn on the wedding day and at the reception until the wee hours of the next morning. I think the testament to Mandy's expertise was when a friend asked my daughter what would you have changed on your wedding day and her response was...absolutely nothing...it was perfect!

    Mandy Scott did the flowers for my wedding in Fairfax California. When I first met Mandy I was half out of my mind and by the end of the meeting I was borderline serene. Mandy listened to me and helped me to form what my vision was. She never made me feel like I needed to increase my budget or that I couldn't get what I wanted. Between that meeting and the wedding Mandy was incredibly responsive to emails and phone calls and was very flexible when it came to meeting times and places.

    On the wedding day Mandy did everything I asked and more. She created the most incredible bouquets for myself and my brides maid and the boutonnieres were beautiful. The most beautiful part of her work was the decorations she put on the hand made are we were married under. It was literally the most breathtaking think I have ever seen. She made my vision come true perfectly. I recommend Mandy to anyone who wants a talented , professional florist who will crate masterpieces.

    Mandy Scott did our arrangements for our Wedding in San Francisco at the DeYoung Museum. She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Our arrangements were even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Mandy worked well within our budget and made us fill at ease. She responded to our inquires and changes in a timely manner. We highly recommend her to anyone who need a florist!!!

    Mandy went above and beyond for our wedding. I was trying to plan it from NYC & without Mandy, my day would not have ran as smoothly or been as beautiful. She was extremely professional & she did everything we asked of her. She recommended awesome vendors; guests kept coming up to us telling us how amazing the wedding was and people still talk about to this day. The flowers were beautiful: it was simply the best day of our lives & without Mandy, none of it would have been possible.

    Mandy and her team were amazing. From the initial meeting to the final day everything went smoothly and as we had planned. She is extremely organized, reliable, and has a good eye for details and design. Without Mandy there is no way our wedding would have turned out so wonderful. Her pricing is extremely fair for the value of service you receive. Highly recommend Mandy Scott Events!

    Mandy did my wedding flowers for our June 2, 2012 wedding, and they were absolutely incredible. I really can't not say enough great things about Mandy. Even though I didn't know much about flowers and just had some poorly articulated ideas, she totally turned my vision into a reality on the day of. Our flowers were absolutely gorgeous, and really made the reception stunning. All of her arrangements were full and beautiful and the highest quality. Our bouquets were stunning.

    Mandy is also just an amazing vendor to work with. She is very responsive and professional, and she really put me at ease throughout the process. I highly recommend her to any bride who wants beautiful and reasonably priced flowers.

    Mandy is the Best!
